I’m not surprised by the high reviews — the photos show exactly how it is. The place has a calm vibe, great breakfast and coffee, and a garden full of life. The night tour was amazing, with red-eyed and glass frogs. We didn’t see a sloth in the garden but did at Mistico Park and at the hosts’ farm, where we ate fresh rambutans! We didn’t feel like a tourist here but part of the family. Truly memorable stay. Thank you Leo and Rosaura!

Jordi's house is amazing! We stay in LA fortuna all the time and this has been our favorite spot! The location is perfect, it's quiet, it's so clean and comfortable. If you have dogs this place is perfect! It's fully enclosed so you can let your dogs go out without worrying about them. That's a big deal for us with our 2 pugs because many places that allow dogs aren't fully enclosed. So we recommend Jordi's house. We loved it. And he was so kind and accommodating!

The location is beautiful. The room was quiet and very comfortable. We were able to keep our car secure at Villa Margarita while we were travelling outside Costa Rica for two weeks. It is excellent value and easy to get to/from the airport. Margarita is an excellent host. We plan to stay again when needed.

We love Villa Pacandé! Recently they actually renovated their units and added on kitchens and kitchenettes in almost every unit! The grounds are beautiful as well and they are absolutely pet friendly (!) which we love as we often travel with our rescue dogs that fly out to Canada or the United States !

We wanted to stay in the city to discover the Arenal Area and we are glad that we have chosen Suwa Villa. It is a new complex with about six rooms. The hotel is not directly visible from the street. The rooms are nicely decorated, clean and had everything that we needed. The accommodation has a washing machine for the guests which is really great. There are plenty of restaurants and coffee shops in 5-10 minutes walk. Parking in front of the hotel. Easy communication with the hosts.

The villa was spacious and clean and it was beautiful! The deck overlooks a small stream and with the trees around it feels like you are right in the forest! It was great having a hot tub right outside to enjoy the sounds of nature while having a soak

This is a fantastic bungalow that offers great views of volcano Arenal and the lake. The location is great as it is outside of a quiet village and very tranquil. The bungalow is large and conveniently furnished. The owners are very friendly. We enjoyed the daily breakfast on the big terrace of the restaurant. There are several breakfast options and the Costa Rican breakfast was sensational. We would definitely book this place again. There are small shops and restaurants in the surrounding area.

This place was perfect. Great, quiet location about a block or two from the town. The apartment was spacious, well decorated, and had everything we needed. The host Patricia was wonderful and arranged transportation from San Jose for us and also gave us great restaurant recommendations. The place is also very, very clean - the cleaner is excellent. Best vacation rental I have had in a while.

Excellent view, the house is located on top of the village with direct access to a small plantage under the house. . We unfortunately had only a short stay so we have not used the garden much. The owner is super friendly but he speaks only Spanish, so please use Google Translator (the wifi is good).

It was beautifully maintained and clean. It was the perfect size for the five of us. The rooms were spacious and the main shower was spectacular. The path behind the villa was an excellent bonus. It was great to be able to walk down to the water. The location was perfect for restaurants and tours. Ubers were readily available and very inexpensive. Would definitely stay here again.
