Arenal Volcano in the Morning Light
A lot of affordable and inexpensive places to stay can be found in Alajuela. Living here is a great option as you get the chance to relax amid some truly breathtaking panoramas. In the capital of Alajuela, there are fantastic resort and spa hotels in the middle of gorgeous lush surroundings. You can find accommodations in the towns of Ciudad Quesada or San Carlos and La Fortuna which are ideal places to stay at, if you wish to escape the more touristy crowds in Arenal. From La Fortuna you can easily get a good view of the Volcan Arenal in all its glory. Nearby here are some wonderful hot springs as well.

But if you ever get tired of volcano watching, you can always play a great game of golf here. Set amidst some of the most stunning surroundings with the Arenal Volcano providing a dramatic backdrop, golfing in Alajuela is something special. Just minutes away from the Volcan Arenal and very close to the incredible Caño Negro Wildlife Refuge, many resorts also offer miniature golfing facilities.

There are not many all inclusive resorts in the Alajuela region, but the few that are found here are truly wonderful hideaways where you can unwind. Located in the more remote and secluded parts of the province, these resorts are designed to blend in with their natural surroundings ensuring that you can experience the very best that Costa Rica has to offer. By taking care of every detail, these all inclusive resorts in Alajuela are well worth it as they allow you to save on unnecessary expenses and provide you with a complete hassle-free holiday.

The ideal place to enjoy a relaxing retreat, most of the vacation rentals in Alajuela are concentrated in the more touristy towns of Alajuela City, Atenas, Grecia, Palmares, Sarchi, Zarcero, San Ramon, Turrucarres, Cuidad Quesada (San Carlos) and La Fortuna. The fantastic part about staying in this area is that you’re never far away from bustling San Jose, yet vacation rentals in Alajuela provide you with a serene refuge in some of the most awe-inspiring environs.

If you're heading west, the Alajuela towns Atenas, Grecia, Sarchi, Naranjo and Zarcero are picturesque settlements along the way. Set amidst striking coffee plantations, these places offer a number of hotels, lodges, condos, villas, inns and cabins to stay at. A lovely way to spend a few days away from city life, this area is also known for its unique arts and crafts. From Zarcero, you can also visit the popular Parque Nacional Volcan Poas with its dramatic scenery and dwarf cloud forest. And while camping is not allowed in the park, there are plenty of hotels and accommodations in the area.
