We had an amazing stay! Itza was very accommodating, and had wonderful recommendations. The house was absolutely beautiful and was just as fantastic as the pictures. As we were not the only guests in the house and weren’t booked in the main house we didn’t have access to the pool, but Itza generously allowed us to use the pool before the other guests arrived. There is nothing I would have changed it was a wonderful experience.

We loved our three week stay at the Enchanted Apartment. If you want to be IN the jungle, IN a typical Costa Rican neighborhood this is a great option for you. This place allowed us to be in nature with the added luxuries of comfy beds, screens when the mosquitoes came out, an amazing bathroom, a very cold fridge and freezer, and even A/C in one bedroom. We loved being in a tico neighborhood and felt welcome and safe there. We saw so much wildlife: capuchin/squirrel/howler monkeys; a variety of birds including woodpeckers, hummingbirds, and scarlet macaws; butterflies; agouti; lizards; and more. That said, if you do not like sharing space with insects & amphibians this might not be the best fit for your Costa Rican vacation. But if you enjoy it, book this place! Other bonuses to the location include a supermarket and soda that are within easy walking distance. We only rented a car for a few days to visit places farther out but the remainder of our time we found it easy to walk to the main road to catch the local bus to get wherever we wanted to go. My biggest advice if you choose to rent the Enchanted Apartment is to communicate. Itza is WONDERFUL and she will do everything she can to make your stay enjoyable. Itza went above & beyond. She made us feel at home & we were so delighted to get to know her. They were doing a lot of work on the house while we were there and adding some amenities. It’s already a great place to stay and they are making it even better!
