What an amazing place to stay and feel immersed in the rainforest while close to town! Beautiful home and property with so many birds, and a sloth that Lorenzo found for us to see on the last day! The kids loved the pool and watching the birds! Thank you for such a lovely time!

Our stay in the house was great. The house is tucked back from the road and behind a gate. The property is gorgeous. Lorenzo, the owner, made sure we did not miss the two sloths in the trees! He also set out fruit so we had a bunch of cool birds visit every day. The bird calls are amazing to wake up to. The house itself is clean and spacious. We enjoyed the creek views, the outside spaces, and the pool. There's a great restaurant at the top of the street that is really easy for a quick meal. Also, Don Juan chocolate/coffee tours is right up the road and is really fun. The House of Tours agents who manage the property set us up with less expensive tickets to several places. Our favorite was the zipline day that included a pass to Los Lagos resort. I highly recommend this location. Thanks Lorenzo, Carlos, and Alan! Pura vida!!

Our family of 8 adults absolutely loved this Air B&B! From the moment we arrived, Lorenzo and his family made our stay Pura vida! Eder met us at their office downtown and guided us to the home, about 20-25 minutes from town. Lorenzos’s wife made us a traditional Costa Rican cosada dinner the first night we arrived and it was delicious and plentiful! We loved this location and often walked into town. There were also 2 good restaurants on our road and day and night hikes close by. We used the house pool to cool off after hiking or exploring La Fortuna area daily. We cooked many meals at the house and it was well equipped with house necessities. The grounds at the house were spectacular! We saw so much wildlife. Every morning, we watched the many beautiful birds and butterflies as we had our coffee. We saw sloths, iguanas and many frogs. We felt totally safe at this location. We enjoyed having Lorenzo and his family close by and they were quick to help us when anything was needed. We highly recommend this beautiful clean home. Thank you Lorenzo and family for making our holiday so special!

Loved everything about this place! Location was ideal! Close enough to everything, yet far enough away! Beautiful and well-kept property! Highly recommend! I would definitely come again! Property manager was always available and answered any and all of my questions. Very convenient to book excursions through them too!

We spent 4 nights at this convenient property with our two children, 20 and 17, before heading to The Springs. The home is extremely clean & feels very secluded. Beautiful area in the backyard to sit and relax and watch the birds! We loved having coffee out there every morning! On 2 nights we had Lorenzo‘s wife make us dinner, and it was amazing. So much food & very tasty! Communicating was funny since our Spanish is not very good, and their English the same.😂 We made it work though, and everybody had a good laugh! The one small issue we had was there is no clothing dryer & I didn’t notice that on the listing (totally my fault!). The washing machine is unlike anything I’ve ever seen before and was difficult to use. After that we hung all of our clothing up on the line and it just never dried completely & had a weird smell. Ended up having to use a drop off laundry service and Fortuna, which worked out, but was a bit inconvenient & cost us $50. Overall, wonderful home & great experience!!

This was our first time in La Fortuna and Lorenzo’s place is an absolute gem we will recommend to everyone. You’re very close to the city center for groceries and daily adventures, but secluded enough that you feel like you have the rainforest to yourself. My kids woke up every morning so excited to see the fruit Lorenzo set out for the birds. We sat on the backyard rocking chairs for a lot of the time watching the wild life and birds. The pool is perfection and we swam in it daily :). The kitchen is fully supplied and the home is cozy, safe, and large. It was perfect for our family of five. We spent three nights here and could’ve spent more. Check in was great - Lorenzo speaks Spanish, but he’s hired someone who speaks English to show the home and answer any questions. They also were able to get us discounted tickets to all of our tours - night walk, chocolate tour, etc. So nice!! We were able to do laundry, too, which we were so grateful for. If you’re lucky enough to book this home - you will truly enjoy your stay.

This is a very simple home with nature surrounding it. We saw every kind of bird and sloths in the trees on the property. An Iguana made an appearance as well. The home is somewhat hard to find for taxi's but we used the Mary's BBQ restaurant nearby as the marker and this helped. We found many great places to eat in and near La Fortuna. The Home Vacations was excellent to communicate with and book excursions with. The staff was very helpful and available for us. We experienced a lot of rain but the temperatures still remained pleasant and we still were able to get out and and do many adventures. This home stay made us live the Costa Rican lifestyle and was a different way of doing things but we enjoyed the experience.

The home was large clean and was beyond our expections! The owner of the home lives next door and came by in the mornings to put out fresh fruit for the birds (toucans)! The location was close to town, yet very private. It was my wife and I, our daughter and her husband plus 2 kids and my wife's mother...plenty of room! Highly recommend this property to vacationers!

We stayed here for 5 nights on a family vacation with my husband, myself, our two kids (5yo and 21M), my sister, and my mom. The property is gorgeous and clearly loved by the owners. The house was spotless and came equipped with everything we needed for our stay. Lorenzo came.and showed us sloths in the trees multiple times and we had fun going on "sloth hunts" at night with our headlamps (bring a super strong flashlight with you if you want to see them!). He also came out and hung bananas on a stick out back in the morning and we saw tons of beautiful birds come to eat. The communication from booking to checkout was great. The pool is the perfect size for little kids (my very tall 5yo could almost.touch the entire length of the pool). And the La Fortuna area in general has a lot to do. We also ordered dinner multiple nights from Lorenzo's wife who brought it over to us and I HIGHLY recommend it. It was some of the best food we had the whole trip and was great after a day out. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

We truly enjoyed our stay at this VRBO. The best thing about this rental was the location and the birds! Every morning our host would bring bananas and birds would appear! It was magical The location was great--isolated but very close to the town of La Fortuna--a very special town. Our host was very responsive and we were able to book tours through the rental company. The house was a nice size (bedrooms a little small) but who spends time in a bedroom when in Costa Rica? Our family had a great time here! Thank you for sharing your home.

We spent 3 nights in this home with my family of 7. The outdoor area was AMAZING! Such a beautiful place with a great pool, pavilion and patio with rocking chairs. Lorenzo was so helpful and we enjoyed seeing the sloths that he found for us and the birds that he fed each morning. I would absolutely stay here again!

Beautiful home. Unmatched privacy yet still close to town.

We had a great time. The caretaker lives close by and brought fruit to attract tropical birds each day. It was a nice secluded property that accommodated 5 adults and 2 teens nicely.

We enjoyed a wonderful stay! The house was spacious and clean. The outdoor area was beautiful and the location was absolutely perfect. The pool was relaxing! Lorenzo helped us spot multiple sloths including two babies. He also fed the birds each morning allowing us to see over 15 species. You won’t regret renting this beautiful property!

Lorenzo was our host and he has kept the property clean, safe and enjoyable. The pull is great. The whole location gives living in rainforest vibe and is sarounded by creec on two sides. The top floor bedroom is amazing as it gives view of trees on the property. There are some times sloths and lots of birds to view. In fruite season there are some rambatan, lemon tree, star fruit, banana and dragon fruit. We enjoyed the stay the costarican way. Pretty close to the downtown area although a car or a ride is needed. Grocery stores are 5 minutes away.

Each room had AC units, cool and comfortable. Great location to town. Enjoyed the creatures in the back yard and different birds coming to eat the bananas.

We loved our stay.

This house and property was amazing. VERY clean and all the comforts of home. The house was warm when we checked in but the AC cooled it off fast. The property manager helped us book some amazing excursions…zip lining and rafting and they were beyond expectations! We saw lots of birds and lizards. Howler monkeys while rafting! La Fortuna was nice as well. We will 100% be back!

Having visited Costa Rica 3 times before; once as a student on a 2 week high school exchange program, again after college and on a great trip with my husband a few years ago, I was very excited to share my love of the Costa Rica with our 13 year old son, 11 year old daughter and 9 year old son. We knew we wanted them to experience something less like a resort and closer to what daily life is like as a Tico. This rental exceeded our expectations. Lorenzo and his family own and manage this large property. There is a long driveway leading up to the rental which passes the homes where he and his family members live. This made us feel very safe and at home. Lorenzo and his family built the wonderful pool on the property. We loved the beautiful bridge that connected thr BBQ area and pool. We highly recommend Rosvil grocery in town and the carniciera near the church in town to pick up food to BBQ. We didn’t prefer MaxiPali. Our kids play soccer (futbol) and volleyball at home and we happened to bring a beach volleyball. They ended up playing volleyball, soccer and exploring with Lorenzo’s young family/friends for several hours on a few of the afternoons/evenings we were there. They had such a great time!! We absolutely loved La Fortuna and this house. For us, this house had just enough modern convenience to be comfortable, yet still reminded us of all the little things we sometimes take for granted back home. Muchas Gracias y Pura Vida!! We hope to be back one day!!!

Our family of 5 with 3 teenagers enjoyed our stay here. I highly recommend this house, it’s a beautiful location, feels remote and private, but still very close to town with many places to eat and shop. We saw so much wildlife right in the yard, sloth (that Lorenzo showed us), owl family, parrots, parakeets, great kiskadees, crested guan, butterflies, frogs and much more! The trees and flowers were beautiful too. The pool was nice and refreshing after our hikes. The house itself was clean and great view from upstairs bedroom, however we didn’t spend much time inside! Master bed was quite hard though and light from air conditioned made room a bit too light at night. Check-in wasn’t ideal as you had to stop in office first and then they take you to house rather than self-check in, but overall I would definitely book it again!

Skip the hotels, this is An absolute oasis in paradise! We definitely will stay here again.

We enjoyed 4 nights here and totally enjoyed it. The house is spacious and had everything we need. It is a 5 minute drive into La fortuna for food and shopping. The beds were comfortable, the pool was perfect and the yard was full of birds. Lorenzo put bananas out every morning for the birds to eat. We enjoyed sitting on the covered porch in the mornings watching them eat. While in the area we enjoyed: la fortuna waterfall, an ATV tour, the Arenal Volcano park, a night frog tour and the hot springs. The grocery stores had everything we need and plenty of fun restaurants to pick from.

We loved our stay and didn't want to leave. The property is amazing and was a very easy walk into town. We had 2 sloths on the property during our stay. We also enjoyed watching the birds feed on the bananas Lorenzo put out every morning. Our only suggestion would be a little freshening up on the living room furniture and a few extra linens but overall, our stay was awesome and we will definitely come back.

Beautiful home and property in La Fortuna. Private but close to town. Garden and pool lovely. Lorenzo helped us find the sloths that were on the property every day. We didn’t want to leave!!

Three couples stayed here. Plenty of room, had everything we needed. The house was in an excellent location, a short drive (or Uber) or a long walk to the town of La Fortuna. The owner was helpful with information and advice. The property had a creek running through it with woods on all 4 sides. We saw sloths and numerous birds and felt like we were in the middle of the rainforest. I have stayed in VRBO properties all over the world and this was arguably my best experience ever.

Great everything!!!!!

Had a wonderful stay!! Saw so many different animals and birds!! Definitely would highly recommend. The only thing was that the breaker tripped 2 times during our 3 day stay. An additional mini split unit could be used in kitchen area. Besides that, we loved our stay!!

Beautiful property with lush vegetation and lots of animal sightings. My family stayed here for 4 days and didn’t want to leave. We saw numerous animals directly in the back yard, including a sloth with a baby! The pool is perfect for relaxing after activities. The host are very attentive to any needs and Lorenzo is amazing; his daily morning feeding of the birds was definitely a highlight.

From the moment we arrived until the moment we left we enjoyed the house and the property. So many birds, wildlife and beauitful plants. The creek was so enjoyable and the pool was lovely. Home vacations who managed the rental were quick to help with any needs, super nice and helpful. They arranged spa treatments at the house..awesome! It was a great location, close to town but far enough away to be secluded. We hated to leave but the ocean called. I would definitely book this place if we ever get to return to Costa Rica.

We loved this house and the friendliness and helpfulness of Lorenzo the owner (he got the power back on very quickly one day). We also loved the natural setting and the wonderful pool. The reason for the overall rating of 4 was the house was not well stocked. We came from another VRBO in Costa Rica with coffee, condiments, spices, towels and amazing kitchen accessories. This VRBO was very light on all these things which could easily be addressed and at little cost. But, again, we loved our stay and appreciated our host.

Lorenzo was a great host and showed us sloths the last morning we were at the property. It was a great location and easy to access the town of LaFourtuna

Comfortable, well air conditioned house. Pool is a definite asset. Viewing many different bird species and a couple of sloths made our stay complete.
