About this house rental

The Serenity House was built on 2 acres in the heart of the Rainforest, very privately situated far from the noise of the city but close to some of the best attractions and restaurants El Castillo has to offer. The gorgeous infinity edge swimming pool is filled with fresh spring water, and is perfect to refresh while you listen to the Howlers Monkeys, watch the Toucans, Hummingbirds and 20 other species of birds that surround the house. At Serenity create memories that you will treasure forever.

The house is big and spacious with beautiful decors from local artists and unique indigenous statues located around the property.
The combination of really high ceilings and the location on the edge of a hill with constant breeze makes for no need of Air Conditioning in the house. Plus all of the rooms have ceiling fans and the sliding doors & windows are equipped with screens so you can perfectly leave them open to let the breeze in without worrying about the insects coming in the house. All 3 bedrooms have private bathrooms to give your group the privacy they want.
In our fully equipped kitchen, you can delight your family with a energizing breakfast to begin the day or with a delicious dinner to close a memorable day of exploring the rain forest. After dinner sit around and share memories in our comfortable living room with all reclinable leather couches and sofas.

- THINGS TO DO: There are lots of tours to keep you entertained for days, Volcano hikes, Zip Lines, Hanging Bridges, ATV tours, Kayak and Paddle-board tours, Rainforest and Waterfall hikes, Horseback riding, Hot Springs, Wildlife watching tours and more. All of these are less than half an hour away from the house.
Our concierge is always available at our new and modern Welcome Center to help you book tours, find the best restaurants, book a massage and get the most out of your time in the area.

-LOCATION: El Castillo is approx. 3 hours (150km) from both international airports, either in the capital of San Jose, or on the northern pacific coast in Liberia. La Fortuna, which is a small city that offers amenities such as grocery, banking, post office, restaurants, hot springs, excursions and much more, is only 30 minutes away.

- GETTING AROUND: You will want a 4WD vehicle. The last drive up to the house is a road made of gravel and rocks. When it rains there are potholes. You will be a lot happier with a 4WD here and in most areas of Costa Rica. While there are a couple of things to see and one restaurant within walking distance of the house, there are many activities that require a 10 to 45 minute drive. You will not be happy waiting for a cab to arrive either coming of going.

Location was fantastic for bird watching. The view from the back patio is stunning! Pool was not in good working order. Wasn’t super clean. Not guest friendly… no closets, hooks, towel racks, or places besides the floor for luggage or clothing.

This was our first visit to Costa Rica. The home and views were as good if not better than described. The bird life and comforts of this home all made for beautiful memories. Hope to visit Costa Rica again and would hope to enjoy it from this home again.

We had a wonderful stay! It is a bit of a drive to get into town of La Fortuna but 100% worth it.

The photos do not do the house justice. On arrival the house was clean and had all of the necessary kitchen and bathroom essentials. Each room had an individual bathroom with shower that had good pressure. The view of the arenal volcano was breath taking and the pool was a perfect way to stay cool down in the heat. Disclaimer the pool structure is made of a cement type of material and we did get some scrapes, but nothing too bad. Also, there is no jacuzzi it is simply a “water feature”. In addition, there are lots of insects surrounding the property and they do tend to go in the house but we expected it and we had no real issues. One thing I wish the house provided would be some type of curtain in the master bedroom. The sunrise would light up the room and wake us up very early and at night it was pitch black outside and creepy at first especially with all the noise outdoors. Overall, we would definitely stay here on our next visit to Costa Rica!

Worth the trek up a bit up a drive for gorgeous views and tons of birds. Pictures don't do it justice.

My wife and two adult children stayed here for a week. Everything was as advertised, especially the need of a four wheel drive getting to the place. A lot of room in the house and beautiful views. The large porch was very relaxing for morning coffee or evening cocktails. Would definitely stay again.
