Perfect spot just outside of the city

The location was perfect. Close to all the tours we had booked. Nela was quick to respond to all our questions. She also included great recommendations for restaurants. She made it a great stay!

Great Spot to Stay While You Explore

Magnolia House was a great location to have as a home base while exploring Costa Rica and the Arenal region. Great hosts that are responsive and happy to provide additional insight into the area.

Perfect retreat for couples!

Super cute, cozy, and great location! This place is even better in person. We were a group of three couples traveling together. All had our own bedroom and bathroom, each with a shower. Beds were comfortable and AC worked great in the rooms. We loved the pool, the outdoor seating with big patio table

Beautiful home in LaFortuna

We really enjoyed our stay at the Magnalia house. The home was very clean, comfortable, and full of light and the kitchen was well appointed for all of our cooking needs. Nela was very responsive and easy to work with and the location felt safe and was just a short drive from downtown La Fortuna. Our only complaint was that there were absolutely no drawers in any of the bedrooms - just a handful of hangers for clothes. If you're someone like me who hates to live out of suitcase, this is a bit annoying. There were some barking dogs at night in the neighborhood too which kept one of us awake, but most of us slept through it just fine.All in all a great place.

Private Oasis

The property was as pictured and expected. Everything was very clean upon checkin. Nela also did a good job communicating and supporting a fantastic stay. The beds were comfortable and the tile work in the bathrooms was beautiful. The room air conditioners did the job of keeping us comfortable while sleeping. Fortuna was a very short drive from the house. We had a bit of a challenge finding the house but Nela quickly sent a picture which cleared it up quickly. We had a great view of Arenal volcano from the pool area. Nela also offered some suggestions of activities. We enjoyed spending a day at the hot springs at Baldi Resort at her recommendation.

Great stay near La Fortuna

We really enjoyed our stay here. The place felt safe, private, and was a short drive from La Fortuna and the Arenal area. The pool area was a really nice retreat to relax between activities and was so peaceful for listening to the rain.

Clean and comfortable home

We loved staying in Nela’s home in La Fortuna. The house was very clean, the location of the home was very convenient to everything in La Fortuna. Communication was easy with Nela, and she had great restaurant recommendations. The beds were comfy and we loved spending time outside in the courtyard and taking dips in the little pool to cool down in the afternoon. Would definitely recommend and would stay here again.

Live like a local

My family and I had a great stay at Magnalia House. The house and detached pool cabana were spotless, comfortable and well appointed. Highlight is definitely the soaking pool in backyard. The area around the pool was comfortable, and beautifully landscaped, giving a feeling of complete privacy even though you are in a neighborhood. Also, the awnings allow for plenty of sun but also allow you to enjoy outside even when it’s pouring rain. And the view of Arenal from the pool is stunning. A couple of practical realities, you are staying in an actual neighborhood in CR. There’s some realities you deal with: occasional road noise, the neighbor’s dogs barking late at night. Also, the process of getting in and out of the property is a bit involved and trying to negotiate after dark makes it more challenging. But the owners were responsive and went out of their way to fix any issues that came up. Also, you get to live like a local in a safe neighborhood and still be close to town. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Peaceful view of volcano

This VRBO is in a new development area so it seems a bit isolated at first but there is a restaurant right up the way and really it's minutes drive from everything else. Was peaceful and secluded feeling with the gate and trees around the pool. Well equipped kitchen, working AC, great communication. Great little place for two or three couples the way the rooms are laid out!
