Our La Fortuna (CR) Lodging Reminds Me Of...

....you know, that somewhat questionable-yet-embarrassingly-addictive summer TV show, Bachelor in Paradise?
In which singles mingle and look for "love" in tropical locations with pavilllioned patios, pools, thatched roofs, lush landscaping, communal lodging, and exotic backdrops of palm trees and mountains.

Here's our sheltered pavillion at the Arenal Country Inn.

On the show, their resort is gorgeous with lots of palm trees:

Here's our more impressive fan palm tree.
Okay, their pool might have more bodies:
But our pool had more swimmers! (Look on the right for confirmation.)

For their comfort, they win in the interior lounging category.


Our accommodations were a lot more basic.


However our "hut" exteriors were quite charming. 


Gathering places on their show were cushioned.


Ours were not. But look at that scenery!


They have a lot of flowers to pick from on their resort.

But look at all the variations in ours!!



Finally, let's address their rose ceremony:
It's exclusive.  Our wrap-up awards ceremony later in the week found all of us recipients of a very special room deodorizer product with the name of Terror!


There you have it: them vs. us. It's pretty clear who the true winners are!
