What you can experience here
Do you want to experience Arenal volcano up close without giving up comfort? El Jilguero Restaurant at Arenal Observatory Lodge offers you a peaceful haven in the middle of tropical greenery. Large windows and an open terrace bring the power of the volcano and the view of the lake right to your table – perfect for sunset and quiet moments.
As a day visitor or hotel guest you can order Costa Rican breakfast, regional dishes and cold drinks here, all with a dream view. From morning to evening you can work your way through the menu while banks of mist drift over the crater outside. The view is at its most intense during happy hour: between 5 and 6pm you can enjoy cocktails on the terrace while the day at the volcano slowly comes to an end.
