Resort in the Arenal area. Offers a Costa Rican breakfast menu with a few vegan suitable items, and a few other vegetarian dishes could be modified by request. Limited options in the area.
The lunch/dinner menu offers 1 pasta dish that may have cheese and some pallid salads. Breakfast buffet can suit vegetarian and vegan — but that’s the case for most Costa Rican breakfast places.
I booked here based on it being listed on happy cow. I would not saw this resort is super vegan friendly. Sure the breakfast buffet can suit a vegan, but I bet every resort in costa rica serves rice and beans, plantains, and fresh fruit. There wasn't any soy or almond milk for my coffee.
Dinner has no vegan options on the menu, and very few even vegetarian options. They were able to make us a vegan dinner one night, but it was rather expensive. I would have rather ate in the town.
I wouldn't stay here if your picking your resort based on the food options for vegans.
We very much enjoyed our stay at the Lost Iguana. Enjoyed hiking on the train on the grounds -- we even saw a peccary. The room was very nice, and view was great.
Also were *very* pleased with the dining options. We are vegan, and had very good choices for all meals, including the breakfast buffet. We would definitely stay again.
