Tifakara by the Waterfall

A small hotel on the road to La Fortuna Waterfall, 300 metres before the falls and about ten minutes from the centre of La Fortuna, with views of Arenal Volcano and Cerro Chato. Its name honours Costa Rica's indigenous people: ti-fakara means waterfall in the Maleku language. The air-conditioned rooms sit among gardens, with a pool and a jacuzzi, and the hotel keeps its own frog sanctuary; every evening a night walk goes out to look for frogs such as the blue jeans frog and the red-eyed frog. Breakfast, and the Bosque restaurant and bar. Booked for you by an affiliated travel advisor.
