pool and Jacuzzi are surrounded by tropical gardens that are bursting with blooms and
buzzing with bees and birds. If you came for R&R in exotic environs, look no further.

You can admire Arenal from every single colorful
cabina
at this riverside property 11km
from La Fortuna. Take a seat on your private patio and take it in. Otherwise, the
cabinas
are a bit tired, but service is sweet and the recent change in ownership means that an over-
haul is in the works.
El Silencio del Campo
LODGE
US$195/220/245; )
This lovely lodge has 24 stand-alone cabins that are luxurious without being showy. The
property's pièce de résistance, though, is the hot spring. For guests only, it has half a dozen
decadent pools in a range of temperatures. Guests can also experience life on a working
farm (try your hand at milking a cow) and feast on fresh eggs for breakfast.
El Silencio del Campo is about 4km west of town.
