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!

The service we got from Freisy and Karina was great. The breakfast was delicious every morning. They advised us on where to go for our delight. My family recommends this place. Thank you, Freisy and Karina! We had a great time!

We love this little glamping spot!! Away from the city lights and noises. The staff is amazing!! Very friendly and welcoming! We even got to go to the barn and milk a cow! Having a fully stocked kitchen with all the appliances you could possibly need is a bonus

Fantastic stay at this beautiful loft. Incredibly modern, clean, easy to access and cosy. The privacy and security is amazing. The owner even leaves you a fully functioning coffee pot, kettle, blender, toaster etc. I’ve travelled to many counties, and stayed in lots of different accommodations, but this place beats them all! It’s incredible and a brilliant base to explore the beautiful La Fortuna and surrounding areas. Highly highly recommended!!

The hosts, Ivette and Javi, were incredible kind and hospitable! We loved the fruit and pastries every morning. They would put our fruit for birds, as well, so if you are interested in birding, this is the place to stay! We spent hours on our private deck watching the birds. Beautiful property! Felt like your own private oasis, but was very close to anything you could need. The space was very comfortable and we felt right at home.

Beautiful chalet, secluded enough to see monkeys and beautiful birds but close enough to town and to Parque Volcan Tenorio to make it convenient. Hosts were very kind and clearly willing to work on any single detail to make the stay enjoyable (a bottle of rose as a gift upon arrival, games for kids, a full well equipped kitchen... nothing was missing). I highly recommend the place.

The place was very comfortable. I appreciate the layout and amenities. The kitchen had a lot of supplies. I didn't realize the TV would have Netflix which was a pleasant surprise. The shower had hot water which you don't always find throughout Costa Rica.

This was a nice comfortable apartment, in a quieter neighborhood, 10-15mins walk from the main town of La Fortuna. From outside the apartment there is a nice view of the volcano. We enjoyed being able to spend time relaxing in the covered porch area when it rained. The kitchen had everything we needed for our stay, so we enjoyed having the option to cook for ourselves. The host, Olga, was very friendly and on hand to answers any questions we had.

The host, Mario, is amazing. The house is beautiful (the room is part of an hacienda). Well garded, super secure. Basic room as we expected, but kitchen was super well equiped with all basics. Clean.

A quiet location perfect for various trips in the Volcano Arenal area. You will have a lot of privacy there and you're just 10-15 min away from noisy and crowded La Fortuna. Nice swimming pool and tasty breakfasts :) Various birds are visiting the garden all day long, the best time to observe the nature is early morning :) There are two bedrooms with their own, fully equipped bathrooms. Well-equipped kitchen. And most importantly: very helpful hosts that were even following the weather news for us!
