Nepenthe B&B
Budget B&B with volcano views and a terrace of swings
About this stay
The terrace with swings is an unusual, specific detail among this list's amenities, and it fits the lush, low-key character this B&B leads with in its own description. Both volcano and lake views are named directly, a rare combination at this price point, alongside an outdoor pool and hot tub that most budget properties on this list do not offer together. The Phoenix Restaurante sits one minute's walk away for dinner, and the property is both pet-friendly and smoke-free, a combination worth noting for travelers with specific needs. Free breakfast, Wi-Fi and parking round out a stay that trades star rating for genuine views and a distinctive, relaxed atmosphere over polish.

Our take
I would recommend Nepenthe B&B to travelers who want volcano and lake views, a pool and a hot tub from a one-star budget address. Free breakfast, Wi-Fi and parking, a terrace with swings and a restaurant one minute away on foot add to the appeal, and pets are welcome. The 9.2 rating from 272 reviews is encouraging. If you expect full hotel services or a polished design, I would choose a larger property, since the charm here is low-key.
- ✓Ask for a room with the volcano-and-lake combination view, since both are named but may not be from every room.
- ✓Use the terrace swings in the late afternoon, when the light over the lake is best.
- ✓Walk to The Phoenix Restaurante for dinner, a flat one minute from the B&B.
