    The only down side is the cock that starts to sing at 4am every morning and keeps going all the rest of the morning.

    The tend is very nice and comfortable. The kitchen is fully equipped and the owner is a very nice person. The position is just gorgeous.

    The only down sides is that when I booked with booking.com, it said check in was 15:00-22:00, which was great because I knew we’d be on a hike during the day and would arrive late afternoon. I didn’t see the special request that came in after the booking that said we could only check in from 15:00-16:00, and the lady was texting me wondering where I was at. I didn’t see it because I didn’t have Wi-Fi. They also sent me a long list of rules to abide by, but if you are respectful of the room, it’s well worth it. Just make sure you communicate what time you will arrive beforehand, because there isn’t a checkin desk or office. Although it’s doable, it’s a little far from town to walk and having a car might make things easier.

    This was probably my favorite stay during my entire trip to Costa Rica. It was so beautiful waking up and seeing the volcano right outside your tent!!! It’s very romantic and just breathtaking. I would highly recommend this place.

    No daily house keeping or cleaning facilities available to keep the place clean. But not a huge problem.

    Location excellent, discrete and quiet with view of volcano. Nice to have kitchen facilities to prepare breakfast and dinners. Very close to waterfall and individual parking for vehicle. Fridge within the room very useful!

    Everything was great.

    The location and view from the tent is breathtaking! If you get lucky and the volcano isn’t covered by clouds, you will have the spectacular view of the volcano right in front of you. Waking up to the calls of roosters, cows, birds and just nature was therapeutic. The tent was also clean and neat and the shared kitchen was fully stocked with appliances. Our host, Evi, was incredibly friendly and helpful and flexible. She helped us find activities in La Fortuna and even booked a ATV for us the next morning. We just had to show up on time and make the payment. Highly recommend this place if you want to get lost in nature!

    Loved it here. Beautiful accommodation, really well presented , clean and comfortable. Separated little kitchen with everything you need. You will need a car as it’s out of the way but you wake up looking at the volcano, stunning. Owner was very helpful throughout our stay.

    The fact that the toilet was in the same space with the room wasn't ideal (although we knew it before we came and took that into consideration). Also probably getting there without a car is quite a walk from the city, so think about it if you don't have one.

    Flora Glamping de Abuela was an amazing experience! It's a local family owned business. We stayed there for 4 nights, and even before we got there we contacted the host: Evi, who helped us a lot with planning our stay at La Fortuna and book some attractions. The place has an amazing location! Just outside the city but 5 minutes drive so you can enjoy the quiet and the perfect view of the Arenal volcano and still feel close to the city. Evi was available for us at all times with every question or help we needed. The room was spacious and clean but take into account that the toilet and shower are in the same space as the rest of the room. However with only 2 glamping tents you can really feel the privacy. The shared kitchen was well equipped with all the things we needed, and was designed optimistically.

    It wasn’t an issue for us because we’ve been together a long time, but the bathroom is in the room with no separation - it’s worth it, but something worth knowing! X

    It’s so beautiful, it’s a lovely location - our host was super helpful and friendly. It’s also owned by a local family - which to me is always a plus.

    A little far from town. Fine, if you have your own transport. But walking distance from the waterfall which was nice

    I loved the location and the view. The accommodation was beautiful too.

    Beautiful ‘rooms’. Peaceful and tranquil. Lovely gardens and direct views of the volcano. Hosts were attentive, warm and welcoming. Great kitchen facilities. Only a short drive anyway from La Fortuna so easy to pop in, but enough out to feel like you’re away from it all. Also, a super short drive to the waterfalls, so it’s easy to get up and beat the crowds (get there before 8am). Highly recommended.

    If you are considering staying here, be prepared for a strict rulebook reminiscent of your grandma's house – and possibly more drama than you bargained for. Upon our check-out, we were unexpectedly (and wrongfully) accused by the owner of what looked like a liquid spill on a piece of paper that was placed inside a photo frame inside the room - this paper had the Wi-Fi into printed on it. We were caught quite off-guard by the allegation and despite our explanation, she proceeded to make a scene, treating us with unwarranted hostility and suspicion. The alleged “damage”, mind you, was a liquid spill that travelled inside the photo frame only blurring the printed content of the paper - and replacing the paper seemed like a quick fix and certainly did not warrant the rude and passive-aggressive demeanour of the owner, that absolutely made us feel unwelcome. Accommodation-wise, privacy is lacking, as only two tents are available, and sound travels easily between them. Additionally, the kitchen is basic, and it's hard to find supplies nearby. Navigating to the property can be tricky, as it's off the beaten path and not accurately marked on Google Maps, complicating transportation arrangements. At night, bugs and a noisy rooster make it hard to sleep. And when the sun comes up, the tent gets super hot. Overall, while the property offers a unique experience, it falls short in terms of comfort, privacy, and hospitality, making it a less than ideal choice for a relaxing getaway.

    Nothing.

    It depends on which neighbours you have how quite it is. Because it’s a tent, you’ll hear every noice and the tents are close together. Also the farm in front of the tent is noisy in the morning. When it rains it gets very damped in the tent, so after 2 days all our clothes were slightly wet/damped.

    Nice tent, comfortable bed, great view, nice that bathroom and toilet are in the same tent. Kitchen well-equipped and clean.
