A great little find on our vacation. It’s a brewery, a farm, a resort-quality hot tub fed by a spring and the lake views worth the cost of admission! Recommend spending a bit more for a room with a balcony—we hung out for hours enjoying the winds off the water. Great service across the board!!

My family of 4 with a toddler stayed in Apt 104. The accommodation was well appointed, very clean and the view from the balcony was great. The hotel is a bit dated (still) but the staff are very friendly, we enjoyed the pool. It was a lovely stop and 2 night stay.

Wonderful place to stay. It is in a rural setting over looking the lake. It was fun to stay right at the brewery. Lots of wildlife hanging out in the area. Food was very good. The owner was around and very friendly. He even joined us for breakfast to continue to have a conversation. Highly recommend staying here

Great stay for 6 days nights. Great friendly staff and the food and beer are solid. Fabalous view of lake arenal. The grounds are hilly and steep in some places, but couple of very nice trails. Lots of animals: dogs, cows, goats etc which for me is always welcome. The owner J.P. is a riot and great to talk to. Wealth of knowledge about the area and Costa Rica in general.

Starting with the room: The room was great. There was a great view of the lake from the window and everything was as advertised. The breakfast was amazing. I loved having the pancakes both days. The restaurant at other times was also good and there was a complimentary beer tasting for the guests. The staff were amazingly nice. I really liked the guy that checked us in. However, all of the staff were nice. The hotel amenities are great after a long day of hiking or whatever you're doing in Costa Rica. There's plenty to do. I ended up playing pool and having a couple of beers. I would definitely stay here again. No questions asked.

What a unique place. Really cool landscape. The view is perfection. Food was fantastic. Beer was fantastic. It is such a unique place. We did really enjoy our time there, though short. Would have been an epic place 20 years ago when the skate park, tennis courts, arcade game, and air hockey were all in usable condition. Servers were nice, the beer was great, the food was amazing, and the restaurant views were so cool.
