Great place!

The property was very pleasant and clean, with beautiful outdoor space. We loved the location - removed from the hustle and bustle of the town but close enough to get there and to surrounding activities easily. Management was very responsive to any issues or questions. Would definitely stay again.

Property was calm, quiet and peaceful. It had ac which made it comfortable to be during warm humid climate. The property was only minutes away from center of La fortuna where shops and restaurants were located. We had minor inconvenience with the bathroom, but host was quick to address. We had a great time at the location!

Great stay away from the busy streets in La Fortuna

We loved everything about our stay here. Check in was easy. The house was clean on arrival. Was stocked with everything we may need. Everything worked well including washer and dryer. The best part was the back patio and the view (when the clouds break) along with the sounds of nature. Loved the location. Definitely need a car if staying here but a short 5-10 minute drive and you are in the heart of La Fortuna. I would definitely stay here again!

LaFortuna Cabin

It was a great place to experience LaFortuna. It was close enough to enjoy the restaurants and shops downtown without having to deal with traffic and noise. There were plenty of nearby soda's that were also delicious. It was only a short drive to the Waterfall and the hot springs.

Perfect place to stay in La Fortuna!

This place was so amazing. It had all of the comforts of home, was nice and quite in a great neighborhood. It was close enough to participate in all of the tourist attractions and far enough away to give us the experience of living in the area. It was a great addition to our "Moving to costa Rica Exploration ".

great spot if you have a car

We enjoyed our stay, the house was clean and had everything that we needed. It was not a location that you could walk to many places from so we would highly recommend that you have a car if you are going to rent this house.

Volcano view with birds

The cabin was so cozy. It is a easy drive to get to town for groceries or a meal out but also far enough out to be immersed in nature. We had everything we needed and more. I definitely hope to stay here again the next time I am in the area. Pura Vida!

We absolutely loved our stay. It was a great place to relax, sitting on the porch reading or listening and seeing so many different kinds of birds. After touring during the day it was great to get away from the busyness of the town. The kitchen was well equipped to do some cooking as well.

Wonderful accommodations

This place was great. The AC worked well, and it had everything we needed. The beds were comfortable, and we all got a good night's sleep.The only complaint I heard is there isn't enough seating in the living area for watching movies. The backyard was big and lots of birds spent time there. We did not see any other animals, but we were only there 3 nights.I would stay there again if I'm ever in the area.

Great experience!

The property was very clean! Anything questions we had were answered very quickly through WhatsApp. It was nice to know the owners are very attentive to your needs! It has everything we needed! It is about 10 minutes from town, but once you get used to the drive it gets easier. The road felt safe and no animals or critters came into the house (we were worried that might happen). Highly recommend this cute little place!

Family trip in La Fortuna

We had a great stay—property was exactly as shown. An easy 10-15 min drive into town but felt much farther than that in a good way. Great A/C which was critical for us given the heat and humidity.host was very responsive and had great meal suggestions—our favorite was Harmony Restaurant which was very small and family owned…tried to go multiple times but happened to be in town two nights they were closed. No
