We arrived in Arenal, the most active volcano in CR, about 12 noon or thereabouts and were introduced to the most beautiful accomodation of our entire trip. A sprite young tico named Johnathan greeted us at Hotel Arenal Nayara. This place was amazing!!! The lobby of the hotel was outstanding...the colors wow.. There are 20-30 cabanas with outdoor showers and deck jacuzzi's. There is a swim-up bar, pet rabbits running amuck, and howler monkeys in the trees. We could have spent a week in this place alone. I had an awesome 38th (oh shit I am old) b-day dinner in the restaurant there. The first morning I was awoken by a loud grunting noise.....howler monkeys are CR's roosters....increible. Isabel was not that interested at 5am.
