Alexandra is an amazing host. She was very accommodating, warm and helpful. She even brought us bread and pinto gallo in the morning. LIttle Paradise is well situated and all the major sights (La Fortuna, Arenal Volcano, Monteverde) are at most an hour drive away. The property is scenic and vast, with a beautiful view of the lake. Alexandra has big plans for the future too - a restaurant, spa and more. My travel buddy and I agree that we would have been happy to stay 2 weeks at Little Paradise - our time there was far too short. We will definitely be coming back for a longer stay!

We give this property 5 stars because it is exactly what our family of 5 was looking for: Quiet, Safe, Scenic, and Unique with an authentic feel. Alexandra is a lovely host who checked with us daily and helped arrange a great day of zip lines and hot springs/pools. It is a 40-minute drive to LaFortuna. Recommendations: Approaching Nueva Arenal from Liberia: Arenal Brewery. Near hostel: Tinajas Restaurant, LaCeiba Tree hike. La Fortuna: Los Canones Zip Lines. Bogarin Sloth Trail.

Changement de propriétaire
Cet hôtel n’existe plus. Les nouveaux propriétaires ne sont pas sur hotel.com, ni sur expédia. Ils n’étaient pas avertis de notre réservation. Par conséquent nous sommes arrivés devant un hôtel fermé. C’est la première fois qu’une telle erreur se produit pour nous sur hotels.com dont nous sommes pourtant des utilisateurs réguliers
