El MEJOR HOTEL de COSTA RICA | Costa Rica #8 🇨🇷

And after having hiked several trails in the Arenal National Park area We have just arrived at the hotel where we will stay tonight which is the Arenal Observatory Lodge It's a very good hotel located 15 minutes from the volcano itself Then it's a perfect place if you're going to be doing short trips or activities in the area Generally in the Arenal area both the La Fortuna area and the National Park It's a great hotel it's a pretty large complex They have rooms above that have views of the volcano itself Then if what you are waiting for is for the clouds to go away Well look there it is behind I don't know if you see it it's still covered it's still not visible But anyway if you're in the room or eating here in the restaurant they have in the hotel itself Then you can calmly wait for it to clear and have that opportunity Besides the hotel is a huge compound it already has a fenced entrance what you need to be lodged in order to enter the premises because they have like I don't know how many hectares hundreds of hectares that are theirs And in fact if you stay here you have the option to do many routes They have dozens of kilometers of trails to hike both to see if there is any waterfall Like routes that simply go through what is the jungle But if you want to be more relaxed and don't just want to enjoy the complex It has other options for example the site where we are now you can see it is the restaurant The volcano is reflected here in the glass And that's what I'm telling you that you have more options to relax within the hotel's own premises Since it has a spa it also has a pool it also has a wide variety of massages both traditional and chocolate-based So in the end if you have the option to come through the Arenal area and stay here It's a highly recommended place although I recommend you book it several months in advance Because they sell out very easily which is the availability of the rooms What did you think Brutal brutal I'm thrilled I feel really sorry I can't make the most of it because we're going to be half the afternoon I want to do too many things Nothing so let's eat now here at the restaurant we haven't eaten all day Since we left that place where we could have died peacefully this morning in Siquirres We moved from a hotel with barbed wire and steel doors and bulletproof glass to paradise We're already here at the pool so let's try the water We're alone now so that's great There's Alex taking some photos Around here a lot of people A bunch of animals we saw a black squirrel around there There are coatis behind the pool now you can't see them because I'm using the GoPro But look how beautiful all this is And there way in the back the volcano Amazing So well to the pool This is amazing we really wanted something like this About halfway through the trip a little less than halfway Put a little bit of relaxation in we've had enough of trails and sweating We're burning I'm already a bit burned So putting this in right now Have this afternoon free just relaxing by the pool in a place as amazing as this hotel We can't ask for more What a dream Not that I'm sleepy but this is a dream And now we have come to the pool that is here the hot tub this one that is here inside Look how it is Not Alex but this It has started to rain heavily in a second This pool here I don't know what temperature it is but it looks like it's near 40 degrees But it's amazing in here right now Look it's already raining heavily They are the drops that are falling here into the water But on top of that since the weather is good it's incredible up to here Not much because the temperature is already dropping but even so what a wonderful place It's completely raining After spending the whole afternoon eating with the view of the volcano Then we spent the whole afternoon in the pool both in the cold one and the hot tub We are finally returning to the room We have a kind of bungalow independent little houses Here near the reception area but anyway you can drive we have our own parking here Here is our car and there Alex is trying to open the room it seems he is having difficulties What's not working What's wrong with him This brings back memories of Vietnam of when we couldn't enter the sauna in Tromso There it is there it is It had to be close I'm the one with the magnetism Look at the room Wide What's that We have two beds here the ones on top are huge two giant beds With the decoration here The volcano this is what you can expect Every time you come to see the volcano this is the daily activity The toucan and here they've put this little animal with towels which I don't know what it is It looks like my dog Lemon Here we have a small house Be careful with the wild dogs Yes we actually had one right next to the room We have the sink It's not bad I'm going to end the day here in the Arenal area at our hotel Here we are already at the bungalow We went to have a drink and dinner at the restaurant inside the hotel And the truth is that it has been much worse than in the meal The meal has been great I have already shown it to you We have eaten very well a dish of typical married man which I was really enjoying rice and beans carried a fried egg on top with chicken and that It was amazing And the passion fruit juice too Great especially with the view Oh what a perfect setting But now for dinner no We've taken some dish so it's more or less light Well it was pasta but it was the cheapest available because it was 17 dollars It already seems expensive for a plate of pasta But you say well if it's good Well at least but no He was pretty decent I mean he was very basic you know and a little flavor And then for dessert a passion fruit cheesecake And that very disappointing So well with dinner we didn't get it right A shame but well At least we've been there for a pleasant while having a drink there at dinner talking and such Watching the Super Bowl that was just now And we have already returned to the hotel so tomorrow we have a day Very busy with activities So we'll see how it goes We'll try to rest We have to wake up at five and something Basically like every day So well we'll keep showing you As always on this trip pure life
