Very lovely setting. Meals arranged by the host on site were quite good. Friendly staff available but also a private setting.

Beautiful place! We loved the stunning surroundings and the infinity pool. Milking cows, holding baby chicks, and walking through the papaya plantation made our stay truly unique and unforgettable. Highly recommend for a perfect escape!

This place was magical! So gorgeous!! We saw toucans daily and other colorful birds. We enjoyed our stay and the hospitality shown so very much. Luis was extremely helpful and kind, we couldn’t have had a more friendly experience. Mario was also extremely gracious. We give this place 5 stars! Highly recommend.

There are no words to describe how beautiful a place this is. The surrounding countryside is outstanding. The views are gorgeous. The air-conditioned bedrooms are very cozy. The hosts are friendly and most every time if something needed attention it was attended to promptly. We did not have hot water for any sinks while we were there. We were there in the rainy season and the kitchen area always seemed to be damp. They did attend to the one leak we mentioned and it got better. The day we left a leak in our bedroom, off the kitchen, started. The bugs were a lot. We had them come spray for ants more than once and still had ants and other bugs. The noise from the compression brakes on the trucks on the nearby highway was very annoying and did not make for a zen experience. We really did love the place however it was closer to glamping.

Words cannot describe the view and sunsets we experienced at this place! Absolute paradise! This property was so spacious and everyone loved having their own room with an attached bath. We all milked the cow and picked papayas. Juan was very attentive and friendly. We also found some lovely glass art at the store at the bottom of the road. Everything about this place is fantastic, but the pool area is the cherry on top. Pristine, with amazing views all day long, this was by far the best pool we have had at an airbnb. And if that's not enough, there's a lap pool! I could go on and on about the place, but you will just have to see it for yourself. We already miss this place, and hope to come back in the future!

What an incredible place for a large group! The views were breathtaking and the amount of space is very large. We had a couple of hiccups (finding the entrance hard to find or not being able to figure out the hot tub) and felt that directions could be a bit clearer but the hosts were very responsive anytime something came up so it was not a problem. We appreciated the large kitchen space, AC in every room, and accessible laundry room. Definitely a fantastic find and would stay here again!

Great location! Everything was very clean and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay! I wish there was a communal space that was enclosed.

We loved our stay at the Zen farm. 3 families, plenty of space and gorgeous views. We loved the daily breakfast that was arranged. Also very much appreciated being able to stay and use the pool even after our check out time. Only minor issue was the loud trucks overnight that could be heard and affected the light sleepers.

one of the best AirBNBs we stayed at. Amazing location, great views of Arenal Volcano. just a few minutes from La Fortuna town. Mario and all staff members were really great with communication. Breakfast provided was excellent. They also cooked a dinner for one of the nights and it rest really good. They took care of if dietary needs as our whole group was vegetarian.

Great centralized location to explore the rainforest and volcanos. True outdoor living it felt like being a part of the rain forest. Perfect for large groups of people!

The pictures don’t do this place justice. Stayed with a group of 15 friends who were stunned with the place. The hosts were great and even left us a papaya in the morning. La Fortuna is a magical place and I highly recommend this place!

Absolutely stunning views, beautiful pool and wonderful homes. The location was perfect just outside of the hustle and bustle, we woke up to birds every morning, but very close to town and sights. Four our group of 4 adults and 6 kids this worked great. We arrived at night so it was a bit of a challenge to figure out how to park etc...recommend arriving during the day. every room had a bathroom, and great views!

This place is basically paradise. Naturally beautiful property with fantastic spaces for eating, relaxing, and sleeping. We couldn't have asked for more.
