Out of this world view. Great pool and hot tub. Beautiful home. Excellent owner communication. However, owners info sheets are quite out of date and you ABSOLUTELY need a 4 wheel drive car to make it to the property. But once you’re there, pura vida

I hate I can’t give this a 5/5 but feel like I would have wanted to know a few things. The road to get to the house was in TERRIBLE condition. We worried if we would make it each trip back up the mountain. Host did mention during our stay it is going to be worked on soon. However this should have been disclosed prior to our trip. The house is very nice and OMG the property landscaping is to die for. It is pretty isolated and off the beaten path though. Also the beds are hard as boards. Other than that the owner was very nice and if road is in good shape I would have stayed again.

This was a great rental option in the Arenal area. Jim the owner was very communicative from beginning to end. We were greeted in person by the host who went through some details about the house and overall stay. The property is kept immaculate (which is hard to do) from the grounds to the cleanliness of the house. We appreciated the little details such as throw blankets in the lounge sofa, extra towels and blankets, ping pong table, remodeled master bathroom to name a few. Yes some of the window screens need repairing (which I’m sure is a constant task) and the wifi could be stronger but this is by far the best rental option in all of our multiple trips to this area. We were very pleasantly surprised and only wished to have been able to stay longer. Bugs were not an issue as long as we kept lights to a minimum as it is a cloud forest after all. Lastly, there are a few reviews where complaints are noted about the caretaker of the property living onsite (building across from the house). Not only was she hardly visible during our stay but she also helped do some laundry for us. We are looking forward to booking this property again next year.

Our vacation stay in Costa Rica was an unforgettable experience, characterized by stunning views of the volcano and fantastic amenities. The privacy we enjoyed allowed us to fully immerse ourselves in the serene and peaceful environment. The local wildlife was abundant and diverse; I was thrilled to add over 25 new birds to my life list. The beautiful flowers added vibrant colors to the landscape, enhancing the overall tranquility and beauty of our surroundings. It was a perfect blend of nature and comfort, creating a truly idyllic getaway. Moreover, the location was incredibly convenient for numerous adventures. We had easy access to exhilarating activities such as ziplining, exploring the Mistico Hanging Bridges, and the fascinating frog night tour (a must do in our opinion). The charming city of La Fortuna was also nearby, offering even more opportunities for exploration and enjoyment. This perfect combination of adventure and relaxation made our stay in Costa Rica truly extraordinary.

While the owner of this home was very kind, and communicative, we were a bit disappointed when we arrived to this house. Perhaps we didn’t look closely enough at the photos, with great detail. As other reviews mention, the views are quite beautiful. But unfortunately, the home itself could use some work. It’s very dated, and very dark, and the building that is on property, where Stephanie the house manager lives, is an eyesore to look at when you arrive to the house, or even look through the kitchen in the window. Served our purposes for our stay, but we had a driver with us, who we thought would be able to comfortably stay in the additional twin that was mentioned. Those additional beds are actually in a very uncomfortable daybed that’s located in the living room. so we ended up having to pay for a small cabin for him to stay nearby. There’s really not much going on in this small town of La Fortuna, so if we ever returned to the area, we would choose to stay closer to where the Hot Springs are, or the downtown area. It was not a 10 minute drive, it was more like a 25 minute drive. At the end of the stay here, we enjoyed the time in the area. But if I’m being totally honest, none of us would give this five stars. I’m sorry, but I felt that for the price, and the photos that were clearly focused very much on the pool and the view, this did not fit our expectation. If the rate was lower, that would likely change my view on the experience.
