Our stay at Hotel Lavas Tacotal was overall a really enjoyable experience, with a few areas that could be improved.
The highlights were definitely the incredible views of Arenal Volcano — waking up to that scenery was unreal. The room itself was massive, very clean, and comfortable, which made it easy to relax after long days exploring. The pool area was also great and well-maintained, and the staff throughout the property were consistently friendly and helpful.
That said, there were a couple downsides. There were quite a few bugs inside the room, although that’s somewhat expected given the jungle setting. The biggest letdown, however, was the restaurant. The included breakfast buffet was decent but nothing special. We also had lunch there one day, and unfortunately it was a poor experience. The restaurant didn’t open until 2:00 PM, and despite being seated right away, we weren’t greeted until about 2:15. We ordered tacos and a burger — the burger was honestly the worst I’ve ever had, with a bun that was rock hard and almost inedible. When I mentioned it to the waiter, the replacement bun wasn’t any better. My wife’s tacos were also very dry and lacked flavor.
Overall, this stay would easily be a 5/5 with better food and restaurant service, but because of that experience, I’d rate it a solid 4/5.
