    Only drawback was that the house only one toilet, so you might have to wait in queue if you are traveling with a big family :D.

    Breathtaking views from the house and very well managed. The house was clean and has all the necessary things required for family. We had to cancel our sight seeing plans just to stay in the house and enjoy the vibe. Highly recommended.

    Two minor things: 1) you should know the property is accessible by a dirt/gravel road only, which can be a bit tricky but not impossible if you don’t have a 4x4. 2) There was a minor problem with some small ants where they invaded random objects like my shoes and my breast pump overnight. Not a big deal.

    Amazing view of the volcano from the backyard terrace. The kitchen is fully equipped and even has a washing machine. The location is about 10 minutes from downtown, but we were mostly driving to the nearby attractions (e.g. Mistico Hanging Bridges, North Fields).

    nothing

    this view is probably the best you can get, no other words than just breathtaking this is a million-dollar view for a good fair price. which when you are traveling with a family is great we had an amazing time, even when the volcano was in the clouds,the house was comfy to hang around in.

    Beautiful volcano view!

    It was a bit hard to find the house in the evening when we've arrived. It's around 20 mins car drive to La Fortuna. Last 3-5km is a gravel/stony road, with quite steep part around 500m before reaching the house - you may need a car with enough clearance (we had 4x4 SUV, so was not a big deal for us).

    Great location for calm stay with spectacular view on the volcano. The house is relatively small (just living room and one bedroom), but has all what you need to stay with the family, including wash-machine and even small terrace overlooking the volcano.

    Slightly difficult access. But close to one of our best restaurants in Fortuna: Jalapas

    The direct contact with the owner’s mother who took us on a garden tour and made us discover hospitality And… very hot shower!

    We don't like the direction to the place was not clear how you get to the place.

    We liked the views and the cleaness. We also like the flowers and fruits plants around the house. We will recommend our family and friends to this place.

    The only thing we didn’t like, and it’s not even the owner’s fault it’s that there was a small road of rocks that we had to go through to go to the city so that was the only “negative”.

    We really liked the fact that it had all you need to cook, it had WiFi and the place was nice plus the view of the volcano was incredible! The beds smelled nice, they provided towels, shampoo, and even detergent to wash the clothes. Both the Chalet and the house were beautiful.

    The disadvantages include access - a piece of gravel road (about 1km) - but we did not mind because I was driving an SUV.

    Very comfortable, well equipped house with a beautiful view of the volcano. Very good contact with the host. Fully equipped kitchen. There is a washing machine and laundry detergent on site. Quiet and peaceful area where in the evening or in the morning you can enjoy your eyes on the terrace with a beautiful view. The property is quite a distance from the center of La Fortuna, we didn't mind (perfect starting point for Místico Arenal Hanging Bridges or Treking Arenal).

    The location is around 20 minutes outside of La Fortuna town however there was a road which the hosts told us about which made it easy to get around. Road was quite rough. I think that the place is not accessible by bus.

    The view of the Arenal Volcano was unbelievably incredible. One of the rooms was surrounded with glass windows giving you the possibility to look at the magnificent view even from the bed. The kitchen was well equipped and the outdoor area of the house was also amazing. Would definitely recommend and visit again. Only one room had AC in it the others had fans. Didnt meet the hosts but they replied quickly.

    all fine

    first there is the view. Once the sky clears up you have a fantastic view on the volcano. we only stayed for one night but we wouldn’t want to leave in the morning trying to stay as long as possible. couldn’t get away from all the hummingbird action. the communication with our host was all via app but super responsive and stressfree. I personally like it when I have someone to talk to in person but I totally understand if this is not always possible. And as I said: I always got an immediate response. I would totally recommend this cabin which was well equipped and spotless clean. And by the way: the view is the same (or maybe even better because higher up) as at the resort furrher down the road where you‘ll pay ten times as much and have to share it with other guests 😀

    Since the roads in Costa Rica are very slow, although the distance is not to big, it take about 20 min

    Great view! The house located very high, above La Fortuna (you must have car), directly in front of the Arenal. Very nice and large garden.

    The best view of the volcano in the La Fortuna. The apartment is well equipped and comfortable. Large bathroom. The bedroom has air conditioning and comfortable beds. Even though the house is out of town, the restaurant is right next doors. The access road has a section without asphalt, but an off-road vehicle is not needed. Daniel is a great person: very friendly and helpful. He helped us pick up our lost luggage .

    This cottage is an absolute gem. You have a breathtaking view of Arenal Volcano from your own terrace. We spent countless hours sitting out there enjoying the gorgeous views and fresh air. The cottage itself is beautiful, air-conditioned bedroom, spacious living room, fully equipped kitchen, modern bathroom with large shower, even washing machine is included. Daniel, the host is super-friendly and helpful; he assisted us with arranging an amazing ATV tour at a very good price. Also, there are a couple of great restaurants really close by, and all the attractions of La Fortuna are easily accessible.

    This place was very lovely! It had an amazing view of volcan arenal. The whole house was really nice, especially the bathroom. It was a lot bigger than i was expecting. The water pressure was really good considering the rest of Costa Rica. It was 5 min from fortuna & 30 from the hanging bridges. The person who owns the place also offers night tours & sloth tours as well as many other activities in fortuna. He was very nice and accommodating. 100% will stay here again when we come back to Costa Rica & highly recommend others staying here if they plan to go to Fortuna :)
