An excellent central location
When the Arenal Volcano in La Fortuna in San Carlos erupted in 1968 and killed a lot of people in the area, Don Miguel- who was 25 years old- and his wife Doña Carmela were in the Cuerpo de Paz rescue team, and helped a lot of people to start the reconstruction of the new town.
At that time, La Fortuna in San Carlos had just two hotels in all the area, so don Miguel, decided to sell all his cows and start the construction of the cabins, he trusted his instincts that some day the Arenal Volcano will be one's of the greatest tourist attractions in Costa Rica.
The Arenal Carmela Hotel offers an excellent centralized location for regional tours, as for instance: Caño Negro Wildlife Refuge, Arenal Volcano tours, Safari Adventure Float, Fortuna River Waterfall, Sport fishing in Lake Arenal, Canopy Fortuna, Tabacón hot springs, Hikes through the Rain Forest, Danaus Ecocenter, Horseback riding tour to Monteverde, and many tours more.
