Wonderful location, not too far from downtown La Fortuna (about 10 min) but it’s far enough from the noise and traffic. Our family stayed for 3 nights and felt completely safe. But what makes this place a gem is the wonderful staff (Silvia, Nicole, and Ana). They made us felt welcome and treated like family. It’s a place I would definitely stay again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend!

The entire property is so beautiful! There is a beautiful river you can swim in and a lovely trail. The rooms were very clean and the entire place is just so tranquil. We will definitely return one day.
Simply amazing. From start to finish the receptionist was super helpful and welcoming. Beautiful property with so many places to relax, super aesthetically pleasing and a must stay at place if you’re visiting La Fortuna. It’s only a 6 min drive to the main strip in La Fortuna and if you decide to walk, you can get there in around 15 minutes. The room has an outstanding view of the river next to the property and if you wish you can go through the trail and go to creek to check it out yourself. Room was super clean, amazing balcony view, nothing more you can ask for. Pool, multiple sitting areas, hammock, pool tables, etc.. 10/10 MUST STAY AT! Will be going back, thank you to Silva for her hospitality.

The room was clean, the staff was great the property was beautiful with a lot of nature. Very close to downtown La Fortuna with lot of activities and a free rope swinging river El Salto.
Close to many restaurants, grocery stores, fruit markets and
a short drive to hot springs and a volcano.
My favorite part was the river in the backyard where I swim and relax.Big yard space where my toddler run around, explore nature, took a walk on the trail and play on swings plus the balls in the yard.
I would definitely stay here again.

I had everything I needed in a very nice, well kept setting. You need to bring your own coffee but you a have a coffee maker. The setting is very nice with a water stream in the backyard. My room looked at the water stream which was very nice. Communication was great. The price is reasonable and I felt it was a good quality/price report. Would stay here again!

Very quiet little cabin, near all the activities and a few steps from the trails to the river. Being off season some of the amenities were out of service but we enjoyed the gardens and trails and the covered areas during the rain.

This was a quick in and out for us, just stayed so we would have time in La Fortuna and at Arenal. The home was minimal but just what we needed. The grounds were actually quite lovely, would have explored more if we had stayed longer. Check in and out was easy.

The place was very cute, great location (right near La Fortuna and off the jungle/river). Beautiful place, we stayed for a week. The staff was very friendly and helpful, especially Silvia. We had a delay to flight, getting rental car, and then checking in (we did not arrive until midnight), yet Silvia stayed up and allowed us to check in late. There was an issue with the water not running and she was friendly and communicative throughout, they got the issue resolved very quickly and she provided drinking water to us. Only complaints are that the shower was cold the first two days and the shower glass was not long enough, so water spilled on the floor and we had to keep towels there. Additionally we wished that there was some sort of dresser to store our clothes. The hot tub also wasn’t working. The back yard area has hammocks to read in and out front by the pool has sitting hammocks which were great. There is also a common area with pool tables, hammocks, grills, basketball, and more. Overall we loved our stay

Host was a family and very friendly and helpful. Property was beautiful. We did have a leak during rain but host was quick to respond and bring towels. We also had a dog barking during the night from next door property but host offered to contact neighbors. Would stay here again. Very neat and unique property.
