Well stocked house with a jungle feel, just outside of town in a quiet neighborhood. I enjoyed drinking my coffee on the upstairs patio and listening to the birds and creek. We would definitely stay there again!

Easy to access and very close to downtown La Fortuna. Liked being in a quiet, quaint neighborhood. The property sits next to the river. We had some heavy rain and you could hear the river flowing as well as sounds of the forest. It was nice. Contained everything we needed and was comfortable all around.

I have never rated a VRBO bc we just haven’t been able to give 5 stars until this time. This home was just so perfect! The host was hospitable. The home was comfortable and safe as well as beautiful! We just loved our stay. If we visit La Fortuna again, we would not have to look anywhere else. We would book again here todos los tiempo!

A great gem in La Fortuna

This place is a dream! The view of the volcano, the beautiful trees surrounding the house make you feel like you’re in the jungle. It rained everyday we were there and it didn’t matter because it felt cozy and quiet. The house had plenty of space for 2 couples and 2 kids, and probably would’ve fit 2 more kids. The neighborhood is really safe as it is a gated community with an armed guard at the gate. We never felt unsafe. The house was spotless when we got there and everything worked. No issues whatsoever. Would book this place again for sure.

Great stay in La fortuna

We had everything we needed for a great 3 night stay, the property was more beautiful than the pictures suggested. Close enough to town for ease of meals and groceries but nice and quiet at night with a great deck to enjoy nature. Access to the condo pool was a great perk.

Perfect stay in La Fortuna

This house was the perfect base for our adventures in La Fortuna. It was extremely clean, very spacious, and we had everything we needed for a very comfortable stay. The upstairs porch is wonderful. Really can't say enough good things, everything was ideal and I would highly recommend!

Lovely retreat

We chose to stay here as opposed to downtown La Fortuna for a quiet retreat. Well-appointed, comfortable home and with two living rooms which was nice for the family to spread out. It was a safe neighborhood, right along a river, with lovely surroundings. There was a sweet little restaurant within walking distance, a grocery store about a mile away, and uber trips to town usually cost about 5-7.

Great option close to La Fortuna and activities

Lovely place for a family to stay. We liked the balconies, close proximity to La Fortuna but away from the noise. Very peaceful nature surrounding. Couldn’t quite see the volcano but saw lots of birds and it was easy to access for tour pickups.
