Right up against nature!
We were amazed at the sounds and sights while staying here! So many birds, monkeys and even an otter came to visit the pond! It was fun playing in the pool and the rain! Not too far from La Fortuna and small convenience shops at the end of the road. The kitchen isn’t really suitable for cooking for a family and isn’t very well equipped so probably best to eat out or make snacks only. The AC worked well and we enjoyed our stay here! Would recommend 😊👍

La Fortuna!
Great property! We just returned from a week long stay. The location is great, close to town but just far enough to have amazing wildlife visit the house! The street is safe and paved, there is an elementary school on the corner, 2 small Eco resorts and private houses on the street. Traffic is minimal. The views of the Arenal Volcano from the driveway are amazing! Speaking of wildlife, the backyard has a small river and then nothing but acres and acres of natural rain forest. Duing our stay we had Tucans and McCaws in the yard, Iguanas, Aguti's, flocks of parakets, birds in every color of the rainbow and we even saw a small Caimen (alligator) sun bathing on the island in the pond! We didn't see any Monkeys but on a few nights sitting outside listening to the rhythm of the jungle we could hear them in the distance. We visited the week of March 2nd and the bugs we not an issue at all, we sat outside at night and there were zero nuisance bugs, no mosquitos, none! We couldn't believe it, especially being from Minnesota we thought the bugs would carry us away at night. During our stay we visited the beach town of Samara and surfed, visted Rio Celeste, Monteverde Rain Forest, the La Fortuna Waterfall and the Mistico Hanging bridges park! The facilities at the La Frotuna Waterfall and at Mistico Hanging Bridges were fantastic! If you can go do so. We had a great time in Costa Rica and the location of the house made it that much better. A. Hill & Family - Minnestoa

We loved being able to enjoy the indoor and outdoor amenities of the property. After a long day it was nice to come back to a private pool. We appreciated the explanation of the different types of trees and plants and enjoyed sampling some of the fruits! It was perfect for our family of 6.

Great property
The property is great, the pool, the creek, the island, the animals, the hammock. All great. The only draw back is the size of the kitchen, it’s a little small to cook a full meal for 9 people. But you have plenty of restaurants choice in town.

Unique property!
Our family of four (2 adults, 2 kids ages 12 and 14) enjoyed our three nights at the jungle villa. We spent each morning relaxing on the porch after breakfast while looking for wildlife. We saw macaws, toucans, and iguanas all from the rocking chairs. We explored the property and were thrilled to find a river. We saw poison dart frogs near the river, a highlight for our boys. The pool was perfect to cool off. And the island swing was a fun spot too. We ate most dinners in town after our activities. We did a kayak river float, hiking the volcano, the hanging bridges, and the waterfall. Slept great with A/C. One of the showers didn’t have hot water and the other one was luke warm. Check in process was smooth. Also the owners were very accommodating when we had to adjust our travel schedule due to illness. They saved our vacation and we are beyond grateful. Overall this is a great spot if you want to get away from town and have a unique experience.

Secluded nature
If you're visiting Costa Rica to get close to nature this is a great place to stay. We saw many tropical birds (inc, toucans), lizards in the trees, howler monkeys in the jungle behind the property, snakes, etc. The pool is refreshing to cool off in the humid days. There are a number of great places to relax outside of the home, hammocks, rocking chairs, etc. The home is basic, the a/c units worked great to cool the bedrooms, we were surprised there was no oven in the kitchen (advertised as fully equipped). Overall we enjoyed our stay. Check-in and communication with the property management were great.

Awesome place and location just 10 min from main city!
Everything was great starting from check in and check out. Kids and us loved swimming in pool, watching fish in ponds, and hanging in hammocks. Beautiful and quite place far from neighbors. We had 2 families with 8 people total and really enjoyed our 4 days stay. Rates for additional activities ( Baldi hot springs, tubing) through the agency were great as well and they accommodated us well in last minute! Communication was very fast and pleasant.

Loved the pool and neighborhood
Home is in a nice, quiet neighborhood surrounded by trees. We loved being greeted by birds and wildlife. We loved the outdoor pool! Even swam in the rain! Not far from the town. Great for our family of 4. We used 3 of the 4 bedrooms. It was great to have indoor and outdoor dining tables, comfy places to sit on the outside wraparound porch and inside, a full kitchen with supplies. Host was available if we needed it. I had trouble with the washer/dryer but I may have been pushing the wrong buttons since Spanish isn’t my first language. They were helping me through it (and talking me through it). Thank you for a great place!

La Fortuna visit
Our hosts were so kind and helpful after our arrival in Costa Rica was delayed and our suitcases a day late. They waited for us to check in and met us at the property because it was already dark. They communicated directly with the airline to have our bags delivered to their office. It was such a huge relief to be taken care of after 36 hours of travel. The property was beautiful and our only regret was that we arrived late and had an all day tour the next morning so we didn’t have time to appreciate the setting. We would definitely stay at this rental again!

Beautiful setting close to La Fortuna
Our family of 6 (my husband and I, and our children and their spouses) stayed here for a week between Christmas and New Year's. We've stayed at a number of houses around La Fortuna over the years. This house had one of the most beautiful settings. The grounds were large and beautiful, with lots of different kinds of birds, coati, howler monkeys, etc. The pool was nice and clean. The porches were were big and wide and located on three sides of the house, so we had lots of room outside to relax. We would have given 5 stars, however the house does need a few updates. The mattress in the master bedroom was fine but the other full-size mattresses need to be replaced. There was one new small sofa in the living area--we would recommend replacing the old orange sofa and chair as well. Also, the kitchen does not have hot water, so it made it more challenging to wash dishes. Overall, the property is very good. With a few small updates it would be spectactular.
