RIO CELESTE AT THE TENORIO VOLCANO DO NOT MISS THIS
Just got back from a magical weekend at the Carolina Lodge.. Stayed in the private cabin on the river... We hiked the Rio Celeste twice about 3-4 hours each time... You can do a much shorter hike just to the waterfall if you prefer... At many vista points you can see 4 volcanos and lake Nicaragua.. The Carolina Lodge offers all 3 meals and horseback riding and fishing for free..... This is a great rustic place to explore the Volcanos.. The river water at Rio Celeste is pure sky blue with many hot springs along the hike.. This river is where god washes his paint brushes after painting the sky.. Pure BLISS...

Yep, it is. Now I'M wanting to go back--great review of a special place, bfish. I loved the way the ladies would go around and light the "evening" candles. . .around the property and in the cabins. TELL ME they haven't installed electricity--as that would take away so much of the ambience of the place!
La Carolina is a good stopover (coupla nights) between Arenal and Guanacaste beaches--or just as an add-on to an Arenal stay.

Yes they still walk around at dusk and light all the candles. It is so magical.. La Carolina is pura vida for sure.. And for the Rio Celeste it is so natural and under explored.. I live in Flamingo CR for 7 years. I cant believe I waited this long to go. I have been to the Arenal Voncano 30+_ times... This Rio Celeste is for real sky blue flowing water with hot springs.. Get a guide and do the long feel good hike... Good luck...
