Casa del Río Arapaima-River View Breakfast Included - Boutique hotels for Rent in La Fortuna, Costa Rica

Beautiful property and very nice people would definitely stay again !

We truly enjoyed Casa del Rio! It was quiet, beautiful, clean and all staff were so friendly, helpful & professional. The town of La Fortuna was close and convenient and had plenty of stores, restaurants, sodas etc... We had an amazing trip staying here. We would 100% recommend anyone to visit. Thank you all for an amazing experience in Costa Rica!

Casa del Rio is top notch! Extremely lush tropical property. All cabins are private. Property is boarded by La Fortuna River. All staff provide excellent service and are very friendly and bilingual. Most will help you learn some new Spanish sayings. Special Thanks to Wilbert! He took such great care of us each day at the restaurant. I highly recommend this property.

Thank you so much for your kind words and for taking the time to share your experience! We’re so happy to hear that you enjoyed the lush tropical beauty of Casa del Río and the privacy of our cabins surrounded by the La Fortuna River. Our team takes great pride in creating a welcoming and personalized experience, and we're especially glad to hear that Wilbert stood out — we’ll be sure to pass along your special thanks to him! It’s also lovely to know that our bilingual team helped make your stay more enjoyable (and even taught you a few new Spanish phrases along the way!). We truly appreciate your recommendation and can’t wait to welcome you back for another unforgettable stay in paradise.

It honestly felt like an oasis inside of the oasis. Think White Lotus, but in Costa Rica! The room was great, the staff was PHENOMENAL, and the food was AMAZING! This is coming from someone that judges culinary very harshly. Jose, Summer, and Diego really made us feel welcomed every time we saw them for breakfast… which was included btw!!! Don’t think about it! Book it! Also worth mentioning that you are a 5 minute drive from downtown La Fortuna. Where there’s hundreds of restaurants, bars, markets, and souvenir shops. Just book the damn thing!

Amazing place, great views! Love the property and all the amenities! Great experience!

Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re thrilled to hear you had a great experience and that you loved the property, the views, and the amenities. It truly means a lot to us when guests feel at home and enjoy everything Casa del Río has to offer. We’d love to welcome you back anytime for another amazing stay!

Enjoyed our stay! The resort is beautiful and lush.  And the spa was amazing! Also, the best restaurant in La Fortuna is on the property!

Thank you so much for your kind words! We're so happy to hear you enjoyed your stay and that you loved the lush beauty of the resort. It’s especially great to know you had a wonderful experience at the spa — and we’re honored you consider our restaurant the best in La Fortuna! Our team will be thrilled to hear that. We truly appreciate your visit and hope to welcome you back again soon for more relaxation and great meals!

The hotel is well maintained and set out, we were expecting it to be smaller as it says Boutique hotel, it was not a boutique hotel by European standards but a large complex. The pool area was lovely but unfortunately the hot tub was only hot on our first day. It was well located to get into town.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're glad to hear you found the hotel well maintained and enjoyed the pool area, as well as the convenient location close to town. We appreciate your note regarding the term "boutique hotel" — we understand that definitions can vary by region, and we’ll take your perspective into account as we continue refining how we describe the experience. We’re also sorry to hear the hot tub wasn’t consistently warm during your stay — that’s certainly not the experience we aim to provide, and our maintenance team has been notified to ensure it’s resolved. Thank you again for your visit and valuable feedback. We hope to welcome you back for a more seamless stay in the future!

This stay exceeded my expectations, from the massages to the food to the lovely room , a 20/10

Wow — thank you for the 20/10 review! We’re absolutely thrilled to hear that your stay exceeded expectations, from the massages and food to the comfort of your room. It was a pleasure having you with us, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime!

Casa Del Rio was the best place I stayed in Costa Rica! Our Casita was so nice and well-appointed.  There is a very private balcony overlooking lush tropical trees and plants. We could see monkeys from our balcony, along with many different bird species. The entire property was a beautiful garden. The restaurant on site was exceptional, and the customer service was above and beyond.  Cant wait for my next stay.

Wow — thank you so much for your kind words! We're absolutely thrilled to hear that Casa del Río was the highlight of your stay in Costa Rica. It means so much to us! We’re so glad you enjoyed your Casita and the privacy of the balcony surrounded by lush greenery. Spotting monkeys and tropical birds right from your room is truly one of the magical parts of being here. It’s wonderful to hear you loved the restaurant and that our team’s service made such a positive impression — we’ll be sure to share your kind words with everyone. We can’t wait to welcome you back for your next stay in paradise!

It was a very cute and beautiful boutique hotel. The staff were super friendly and attentive. It superseded out expectations. We will definitely come back 😍

This place exceeded all expectations!!  The resort has a delicious restaurant, with several breakfast options included in your reservation.  Lunch, dinner, and a bar are also available and wonderful.  There is an on-site spa with amazing massage services.  Free specialty coffees in the gift shop were a nice, unexpected touch.  The hot tubs and pools, one with a slide, were wonderful to use at the end of a long day!  The staff went above and beyond to make a birthday we were celebrating, extra special.  The staff puts you in a group message and is always available to help.  Cannot say enough good things about the staff and stay!

The customer service the beautiful area, the comfortable room just dreamy the best

This place is amazing!  We didn't realize it was part of a beautiful resort.  It's even more amazing than the photos.  Beautifully designed and safe property, great location, wonderful breakfast, and super helpful staff.  We're so glad we found this place!

Pablo's place was spectacular. The grounds are absolutely incredible. There was a lot of construction happening while we were there but it didn't deter from the beauty. The landscaping is nothing short of incredible. The outdoor seating areas are beautiful. I loved that breakfast was included and it was FABULOUS. The pozole was delicious! Using the Casa del Rio app to communicate needs with the staff was helpful although I found them to not be quick to respond to issues with hot tub and key card not working. Overall a wonderful spot to land and I would return.

Everything was perfect! The house was beautiful and very clean. The outside courtyard was beautiful and we really felt like we were in nature. The place is very quiet and the people who work there are very friendly and are there to help us. The breakfast is very good and the people who work there are very friendly. Definitely one of the nicest airbnb I've ever stayed in. If you go to La Fortuna, don't hesitate! 3 nights were not enough, I would definitely go back!

To keep it simple, 10/10 experience staying here.

I didn’t want to leave! Will definitely be coming back, everything was amazing

We were blown away with this unit and the amenities around it. Breakfast staff was super friendly and accommodating. You are in the heart of La Fortuna action at this location.

100% staying here again when we come back! Book it! You will not regret it I promise!!

AVOID! While I am sure some people have successfully stays here, my wife’s and my stay was horrible. We came back to our room after our first night and found 100s of bed bugs crawling all over the bed and inside our luggage. My wife and I have traveled extensively and this was the worst situation we have ever ran into. This is where it got worse. We decided to change hotels due to this, no way I could have fallen asleep on the bed again. The owner did not offer a room change and refused to refund for the unused nights, they blamed Airbnb. I have screenshots from Airbnb saying that our situation was unacceptable to them but the owner refused the refund. Either way, someone is lying. Moral of the story. Don’t risk your money by staying here. The other hotels we stayed at in the area had zero bugs. This place is not worth the risk. If you have an experience like ours, kiss your money goodbye. Go to the google reviews to see pictures of the bugs…

Favorite place we stayed in Costa Rica! It was a little sanctuary. Will definitely be staying here again if we come back. Also the breakfast was divine and the staff were exceptional!

Amazing experience at Casa del Rio. Staff were incredibly responsive and truly took care of their guests. The location and amenities were everything we were looking for in a CR vacation. Pura Vida!

Casa del Rio is amazing! We were definitely in for a surprise. This place looks way better than the pictures and we will definitely come back with more family. The only thing is that the place is a decent size so depending on where your room is at you have to walk up a bit and it can get tiring. Our room was in front of the bigger pool so it was a plus! Staff was excellent, so nice and professional. Exceeded our expectations.

Location is amazing with entire little private villa & balcony. The staff here is amazing, extremely friendly, and accommodating. Bilingual. Crew member Jose was awesome, definitely made my trip a little more memorable by showing me hidden animals on the property like a sloth 🦥. Great for pictures & memories. This place is extremely peaceful, the perfect getaway with so much to do on a safely gated property for solo travelers or a group.

We can not say enough about how amazing Casa del Rio is.  It is beautiful, the staff is amazing, the breakfast was delicious,  the grounds are spectacular and everything is very clean.  We will definitely be back here for another visit.  It has been our favorite place of our entire trip.

We were extremely happy with our stay at Casa del Rio Arapaima.  The cottage was clean, quiet, comfortable and ideally located.  The grounds of Casa del Rio are beautiful and the pool was very refreshing after a day of hiking. The restaurant was also perfect for us as we didn't want to drive to find good food.  The food was delicious and the atmosphere was great.  If we ever find ourselves in La Fortuna again we will definitely stay at Casa del Rio Arapaima.

Amazing place in the middle of the jungle. A lot of things to do around: hiking, restaurants, activities. Fancy SPA with a good service and affordable price. The delicious breakfast was included. Secure, quiet, well decorated. Highly recommended.

We loved our time at Casa del Rio!  Note that this is a boutique hotel / resort vs. an apartment.  That being said, the grounds are absolutely beautiful and the staff are super friendly.  We tried a number of the different breakfast choices and all were delicious!  And the view of the volcano from the restaurant can't be beat!  Dinner at the resort was also good but there are many restaurants nearby if you want to venture out.  We mostly stayed on the property but they will also help you arrange excursions, which is really helpful. If you're looking for a place to stay in La Fortuna book here.  We can't wait to go back!

Casa del Rio is an amazing place. The location is incredible with thick trees all around and animals that come by to visit. The hotel grounds itself is beautiful with tons of trees, a pond, lots of birds, and of course the pool, slide and hot tub. All of the stuff we're very friendly and helpful. We had a spectacular massage on our last day. It's also in a good location right next to the rope swing and close to the city center but separated enough to feel peaceful. Overall just a beautiful and amazing experience.

Pictures really don’t do Casa Del Rio justice! I would venture to say this may be one of the best places I’ve ever stayed. I travelled with my two young boys and while I loved the porch overlooking the forest with my coffee every morning, they loved the water slide and pools! When we first arrived we saw a sloth and tucan! The staff went above and beyond and the restaurant was delicious! We will be back next time we visit Costa Rica!!

This place was absolutely amazing, beyond our expectations. It felt really safe as the complex was gated. The staff were amazing & so friendly. Breakfast was an added bonus with fresh fruit, local cake and a wide selection of options. The pools were clean and spacious and if you fancy a thrill head down the slide! It’s faster than you think! We also took the opportunity to have a couples therapeutic massage which after hiking around the Arenal Volcano park was well received and we felt fantastic value for money. On site there were many Lizards, birds and even a sloth, we saw monkeys swinging in the trees whilst having breakfast on the second morning. If we were returning to La Fortuna again, we wouldn’t hesitate to rebook pablo’s place.

This was a great stay. It's at a boutique hotel with a fun waterslide for kids (and as others have noted, adults enjoy it too). It's a one bedroom, but a large one bedroom and great for a family with 1-2 kids. We enjoyed the free breakfasts and the property is beautiful. Would definitely stay here again!

We had a wonderful 3-night stay at Casa Del Rio in our villa named Arapaima. The soothing sounds of the river below and the birdsong waking us up each morning created a truly relaxing atmosphere. Casa Del Rio, with its 26 separate villas, embodies the essence of a boutique hotel. The well-kept grounds and pool / hot tub areas added to the beauty, while the comfortable king-size bed ensured a restful night's sleep. The breakfast choices were exceptional (and very filling) and the staff's attentive service, including the use of a messaging app for communication, made our stay truly memorable.

Casa del Rio was my favourite stay in Costa Rica. The place is extremely well maintained, the staff is very friendly and helpful and it has a lot to offer. Everything was very smooth. The place itself was an absolute oasis, it was so beautiful I had to pinch myself to remind it was real! This place completely exceeded my expectations!

This is an absolute gem! Everything was just perfect. The staff was wonderful and everything was extremely clean and well maintained. Would highly recommend!!

Honestly surprised at how great this place was! I thought I was just renting a simple room but it was a whole cabin complete with amenities! 3 different pools with hot tubs, very private area full of different variety of plants. The people who worked here were very friendly and loved to serve. Very close to the town yet definitely in a safe area. They also offered free breakfast and the dinner menu was solid. I totally would come back and would recommend this Airbnb to everyone who plans to stay in La Fortuna!!

We have stayed here before and were floored with the beautiful property so we made sure we got to visit again. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, the breakfast was delicious and the pools/hot tubs made the day of traveling so worth it! Would definitely stay again.

Lovely room in beautiful surroundings. Great location, close to the town and places to visit. Fabulous on site restaurant and really nice staff.

Beautiful place and helpful people working. Would 100% stay again and recommend to anyone checking out La Fortuna.

Friendly French hosts who have built a beautiful place near the beach. Unfortunately it’s close to the Main Street with restaurants and bars that play loud music. Thankfully this did not go on too late at night. The home made delicious breakfast with fruit, pastries, eggs and coffee was incredible and appreciated. They even packed us breakfast one day as we had to leave very early for a snorkel trip! Very accommodating and enjoyable! I would definitely recommend staying here!

Our Stay at Casa Del Rio was amazing. The staff was very helpful. Assisted with setting up tours and knowledgeable about the area as needed . The location to downtown La Fortuna was great and walkable if desired. Beautiful area and very safe. The complimentary breakfast was an added bonus. We would definitely stay there again.

Pictures do not do this magical place justice! What a wonderful resort. 100% will be coming back!

Great friendly staff and amazing nature sounds at night

This was one of our favorite places. The pictures under sell the property, it is beyond amazing. The staff were also great and went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. We will be back!

One of the best places we have ever stayed.  The cabins were modern and spacious.  The grounds were in an amazing rainforest with monkeys, peacocks, and many birds.  The pools and hot tubs were great to swim and relax in.  The cabins were easy to get to as you follow lit paved paths to your individual cabin which are located throughout the property.  The breakfasts are good, and La Fortuna is very close.

This place was an oasis in La Fortuna. It far exceeded our expectations. We thought we were getting a small cabin near the river (which we did) but we had no idea that the cabin was set in a stunningly beautiful compound. The grounds were gorgeous, the staff was very responsive (especially Hayward), the included breakfast had many choices and all of them done very well. The whole place was a notch above anything else we have experienced in Costa Rica through Airbnb. I highly recommend this place if you are planning a stay in La Fortuna.

This place was a great find.  The grounds and the lodging were even better than what the photos showed.   Booking and check-in were very clear and the information was spot on.  The on-site staff were extremely friendly.  They drove us to and from our unit in a golf car on check-in/out day so that we didn't have to drag our suitcases.  The entire grounds are pedestrian-only, just a short walk up to the car park and restaurant.  The unit was extremely clean and met our needs, it even had motorized blinds to shut at night to prevent the sun from waking us up.   The breakfast at the on-site restaurant is amazing.  Two pools are located very near the unit, we didn't find much time to lounge at the pool on this trip though.  I would recommend this unit to anyone looking for a comfy, clean lodging option.

We cannot begin to describe how much we loved the Casa Del Rio accommodations, amenities, and staff!! Every one was so helpful and just amazing!! We loved the location which is just outside of the hustle and bustle of the town. The waterslide, pools and restaurant were all top notch. We will be coming back! Pablo — thank you SO much!

This was the most perfect stay. It exceeded expectations ten fold. My fiancé and I felt like we were on a honeymoon in an exclusive and private luxury resort in the rainforest including breakfast in the cost of the Airbnb which is probably in the US worth $20 pp, we still can’t believe it was included in the cost :) You can see the Volcano from the resort (when it’s not cloudy.. we got lucky) and it’s within a 5 minute drive to the main downtown area with restaurants and bars. this place isn’t just an Airbnb it’s a full 5 star resort with restaurant, bar, pools and hot tubs, a waterslide, common areas for lounging and a spa. Take advantage of the spa services they are very affordable. The staff is beyond phenomenal  they take care of your every need such as golf carting you to your room and to and from the spa, and making you special menu items upon request. They also give you 2 for 1 mimosas and a free cocktail at night upon checkin. We will miss Axel and William they are the best.

We were pleasantly surprised with the entire private complex. It was a very relaxing, secure, and enjoyable experience. The entire staff from the reception, spa, housekeeping, and restaurant were very attentive, friendly, responsive, and helpful. The food (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) was phenomenal. The grounds were well maintained and beautiful with lots of floral and fauna walkways. The description on Airbnb does not do it justice. A private oasis.

The most beautiful place I have ever visited! Each guest has their own bungalow with private balcony and beautiful room. Everything very modern (TV, air conditioning, automatic sun visor). The rest of the resort is also beautifully designed. Lots of beautiful plants that are maintained every day. There is a restaurant where you can have breakfast and dinner. There is parking space and even a souvenir shop available. There is a large pool for swimming and on the other side of the complex there is a smaller pool. In addition, there are several seating areas and a public kitchen, for those who prefer to cook for themselves. All the staff were very open and friendly. We would immediately come back to this beautiful well-kept place!

Die schönste Unterkunft, die ich je besucht habe! Jeder Gast erhält ein eigenes Bungalow mit eigenem Balkon und wunderschönem Zimmer. Alles sehr modern (Fernseher, Klimaanlage, automatische Sonnenblende). Auch der Rest des Resorts ist wunderschön gestaltet. Viele schöne Pflanzen, die jeden Tag gepflegt werden. Es gibt ein Restaurant, wo man frühstücken und zu Abend essen kann. Es sind Parkplätze und sogar ein Souvenirshop vorhanden. Es gibt einen grossen Pool zum schwimmen und auf der anderen Seite der Anlage einen kleineren Pool. Ausserdem gibt es mehrere Sitzgelegenheiten und eine öffentliche Küche, für alle die lieber selber kochen möchten. Alle Angestellten waren sehr offen und freundlich. Wir würden sofort wieder an diesen wunderschönen gepflegten Ort kommen!

We loved our stay at this Airbnb.  The staff was very friendly and the lush greenery/landscaping on the property is magical.  The food at the restaurant is insanely delicious, I highly recommend the shrimp Ceviche. The only reason I gave it a 4 out of 5 stars was because in our room we had two sliding patio doors and one of the doors locks was broken so we could not properly lock our room.

This is hands down the best place I have ever stayed. As other reviews mention, the place is BETTER than the photos. Seriously, it's GORGEOUS! They had some lights for the holidays that added to the peaceful feel. We stayed in Ariapima room, next to the pool and shared kitchen, but it was still serene and quiet. You can hear the river and rainforest sounds behind (Howler monkeys will wake you up :) and you can see a little pond with birds. The restaurant on site had a great breakfast and dinner options (Lomito was delicious!). We arrived in the evening and they had a little cart to take us to our room and check us in there - great benefit after a long day of travel. Very responsive on Whats app. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. If I had to caution others about would be that the only parking for this room is by reception and is an upward climb from the room. Not a problem for us, but if you have mobility issues you will want to call for a cart (they are quick to respond).

One of the most amazing experiences and Airbnb's I have ever had the pleasure of staying at! Will DEFINITELY be back!

This property is beautiful! This is more of a boutique hotel rather than a short term rental. Way better than expected accommodations! We loved the pool and water slide! Only issue was listing stated children are free, however they ended up charging for my 3 year-old upon arrival. However, the extra $28 was not a big deal and still beyond worth the value considering the accommodations.

We loved our stay at Casa Del Rio. Everything was beautiful from the grounds to our cabana. Breakfast was very tasty and the staff were always around to help if you had any questions. I will definitely recommend this place to friends and family.

Felt like an enclosed community in the jungle. Beautiful place with outdoor kitchen, pools, spa and hot tub.  loved it will definitely return one day!

The pictures of this place and property do not do it justice! The landscaping is absolutely stunning! I had no idea it was a Boutique Resort when I booked. The staff was all great all-around offering a tour of the property and a golf cart ride to and from with luggage to your room. You have to park in the parking lot near the lobby. Breakfast was included with amazing views of Arenal. Its very secure with 2 gates to enter and walkable to everything right in town. There were 2 pools and a super fun waterslide we enjoyed! We stayed in Arapaima (all rooms named after fish) and we were directly next to the community kitchen with a large fridge and hangout area where the waterslide is. (There are 2 small knobs to turn the water on for the waterslide. ) With that said, the property was very quiet. 5 stars, for sure! I will definitely be back to this gem!

We were beyond impressed with casa de rio! Everything was state of the art from the decor, automatic blinds, comfy beds, and overall quality of all the buildings including their new restaurant. We can’t believe the price of the place for the amount that you get (multiple pools, a slide, jacuzzis, breakfast, gym, comfy common places, and walkable to much more). Another huge plus is the privacy of our room and the safety of the whole resort (gated entrance). Beyond impressed with this place and would recommend it to anyone who wants to visit la fortuna.

This place completely exceeded our expectations. This was our favorite place we’ve ever stayed in Costa Rica and possibly ever. If your going to stay in La Fortuna, skip the bigger resorts. You get the same if not better quality (because there is more attention to detail) but for a much cheaper price. The property was breath taking. Before we left we talked decided that we would come back and stay here again and not even plan any excursions, just stay here for the whole trip. I can’t wait to return to see all of our friends again. Thank you everyone. I’m going to leave a longer review online to mention everyone by name. Thank you all again.

This was the absolute best Airbnb I have ever stayed at. Felt more like a resort than an Airbnb. It was beautiful, quiet, and clean. We woke up to howler monkeys in the morning, which really just added to the Costa Rica experience. Breakfast was included and it was always delicious. All the staff members were so friendly. The room was spacious and had a balcony with a view. We were across from the pool as well so not a long walk. I honestly was so sad on our last day and didn’t want to leave. The photos don’t do the property justice at all. I was apprehensive on booking based on the photos but the reviews sold it for me. I’m so happy I listened. If I make it back to La Fortuna, I will absolutely be staying here again.

Wonderful experience. Everyone was so kind and helpful. Beautiful location. Can’t wait to visit again.

Very friendly, very hospitable, private, quiet and beautiful!

Overall we were SUPER impressed with Casa del Rio. Everything is super clean and the landscaping is immaculate. Bed was super comfy and the room was very clean. Breakfast included is always a bonus and the staff communicates very well. The property also has a river, a pond with tilapia and huge catfish and a built in water slide connecting two levels of the property. The only, and I mean only, complaint I have is that the outdoor lighting/signage could use some work. The area where the hot tub and water slide are lacks sufficient lighting and poses a risk of falling or injury at night since the stairs in that space are VERY treacherous. The layout of the property is also confusing to figure out at night so some signs for the exit would be nice. Otherwise, it’s a fantastic place to spend a few days and it seems like they are building onto it even more. One last tip, the la fortuna waterfall is on the exact same road as this air bnb, unbelievable place and it’s so close! Highly rec’d!!

The place is beautiful. The breakfast is delicious, the amenities are great. The only issues I had were trying to get in contact with the hosts sometimes took a while. Also, we only were able to get a new towel and washcloth every 4 nights. Other than that, the place was wonderful and everyone was super nice. I would stay again.

excellent place, very quiet, the natural atmosphere is very nice.

excelente lugar, muy tranquilo, muy agradable el ambiente natural.

Casa del Rio is beautiful and private. Despite the fact that there are several units on the property, it feels secluded and in the midst of nature. The breakfast, both the food and the service, was outstanding. So friendly and welcoming.

Where do I begin ? This place is paradise !!! pura vida to the max . It made my trip so much better which I didn’t think was possible . The attention to detail is something out of this work , I have never seen a property to well maintained . The breakfast is divine , the staff is amazing ! The location is perfect . Having you own villa, in the lush landscape, with the river running behind the place , and all the amenities to relax … words don’t do it justice ! I will def come back to Casa Del Rio !!! Thank you for a heavenly stay !!!

Wonderful Airbnb location that feels like a private getaway!  Amazing breakfast and service. Would come back next time if we were in the area.

The Casa Del Rio in La Fortuna turned out to be everything we hoped it would be plus much more. The caretakers of the property were so helpful and inviting. They were super friendly and attentive. It was like our own private oasis 2 minutes from downtown La Fortuna. This place has it all 2 pools, a river, fish pond, hot tub, water slide and each villa is next to a fully furnished outdoor kitchen. Wonderful memories. Wish we were still there. We will definitely be back. 10/10!

Had a wonderful stay here, it is great for the price! The Pros: Great price, responsive staff, will go the extra mile for you, free breakfast, very private (maybe too private), fun pool, and cool lake. The cons: Hard to get into when you arrive as it takes time for someone to get you, the air-conditioning takes some time to start (as tourists it was hawt lol), and lastly if you are renting a car and it's large. The roads are small on the grounds, so try to check in, maybe in the daytime.

We absolutely loved staying here for our honeymoon!

Our stay was incredible! It feels like you are completely secluded and surrounded by nature. There are all kinds of wild life including monkeys. There was a delicious fresh breakfast and tons of amenities.

We absolutely loved our stay at Casa Del Rio. The complimentary breakfast every morning was amazing and the staff was even better. The rooms and entire facility was top notch, high tech, safe, and extremely clean. We also did the couples massage after a long day of hiking and it was 10/10. Do not hesitate to book, you will not regret it!

We stayed at Tabacon the night before checking in here and honestly thought Casa Del Rio was nicer and had amazing amenities! Rooms are spotless!

My boyfriend and I had the best time at Casa del Rio. The grounds and complex were amazing and we felt as if we were in our own secluded sanctuary. We had amazing breakfast at the complex daily. We were driving distance from the Main Street in town about a mile so a car is needed to get around. We will be back!

Casa Del Rio was an amazing place to stay. Pictures don’t do it justice. The property is very secluded & safe. Beautiful landscaping all around, our room was right in front of the pool, & neighboring a huge outdoor kitchen/dining/lounge area that had the water slide/ jacuzzi attached. The pool is so beautiful especially at night. I’m not sure if it’s heated or if it’s the salt water but the temperature was perfect. Not too cold but not too warm. Easy entry. The landing pool at the end of the water slide, however, was FREEZING. The property had great wifi, blackout curtains with remote, hot water. We didn’t use the tv not once, so I can’t speak to that. The ac worked great & I slept like a baby. The morning breakfast OMG the best part of our stay. Everyone was super nice and helpful. The outside birds (peacocks & geese) can get pretty noisy all hours. We had a noice machine so it didn’t bother us at night. < 35 min drive to everything. Car is best due to the hills in some parts IMO

Wonderful little paradise within a resort of apartments. The staff was all great, the breakfast was great, and the room was great - couldn't have asked for more. Worth every penny. Has a great balcony and spotted a bunch of wildlife from it, including lots of birds/frogs/lizards. This place really helped make our trip unforgettable.

Stunning. We loved everything about this stay. The pictures don’t do it justice. It’s more resort style with excellent facilities and maintained to the highest standards. Each apartment feels very private and as if you are right in the middle of the rainforest. The staff are all very friendly and very helpful.

Casa Del Rio is absolutely beautiful! Our room was very clean and we really enjoyed the grounds. It is conveniently close to town. We will be returning in the future.

This place was soooo beautiful and relaxing. It’s literally a private oasis. At first it was hard to find it’s behind a garage door. But if you follow the instructions and communicate it’s really easy. Once those doors open it’s a beautiful oasis with trees and plants and they’ll take you in their buggy with your luggage to your own little cabana type of room. Pool is nice and there’s a hot tub that lights up. It’s very very peaceful and close to everything.

The home, amenities , gardens and the pools were amazing. Our two grandchildren aged 13/10 were kept busy for hours in the pool and slide. The farm animals, birds and fish pond were fun to see and we got farm fresh eggs for our breakfast. We had issues with the plumbing on two occasions and although these caused some inconvenience, the maintenance staff were able to address the problems. It could be made a little clearer that your kitchen facilities and utensils are centralized in a cooking area and not in the home. There is no fridge in the home but a shared one in the main kitchen area. The kitchen facilities were top end and functional. Overall, a fabulous experience and would recommend this facility to all who want an amazing experience.

Honestly this airbnb is way better than the photos. The landscaping and entrance is breathtaking— truly a luxury feel. The amenities were pristine & really felt like an upscale villa. Would definitely book again. If you’re thinking about it, just do it!

Beautiful grounds and accommodation. Don’t skip on the water slide- SO MUCH FUN! The included breakfast was great. Would definitely stay here again!

Very happy with this place! From the moment the main doors opened, it felt like you were transported to the jungle! With lots of trees and wildlife around. Staff were very good and on hand to give us a tour around the place, very happy! The place is beautiful, the pictures really do not do it justice! Pool, hot tub and slide are great too! Easy access in and out the property. Takes around 20/25 minutes to walk into the centre, but a local taxi only costs around 2,000 (£2.80). Overall, would highly recommend this place!

It was one of the most beautiful places I have stayed in Costa Rica. Very clean, luxurious and situated in gorgeous, natural setting. It looked way better than the photos. The hosts were just so nice and pleasant. We loved everything about this place. Cannot recommend it more!

Casa Del Rio was beautiful! We loved our stay

Wow Wow Wow. I would recommend this in a heart beat. Beautiful rooms, beautiful grounds, everything was just perfect. Very Clean. The kids had so much fun on the waterslide. I will definitely stay here again if I return to La Fortuna.

Absolutely amazing. Saw sloths and howler monkeys outside of our balcony. Phenomenal!

Amazing stay here. From the time we arrived till we left we had a great stay. The cabin was nicely decorated inside. Grounds were AMAZING! Pool, hot tub and water slide did not disappoint. Would highly recommend

Very clean and comfortable. Beautiful property.

This was a great stay! My husband and I stayed at this airBnB and it completely exceeded our expectations. We divided our stay in La fortuna between Felicia's place at Casa del Rio and a hotel with a 4.7 rating but we wish we stayed here thee whole time instead. It was a great deal, fantastic location and all the necessary amenities for the best price in the area. So glad we found this place. Pictures do not do it justice.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review. We are so pleased to hear that your stay at Casa del Rio exceeded your expectations. Our team always strives to ensure our guests have an enjoyable stay, and we are delighted that we could provide you with the necessary amenities at a great price. We appreciate your kind words and glad to hear that our pictures did not do the property justice. Thank you again for taking the time to leave such a positive review!

Beautiful stay at Casa Del Rio! The location is fantastic at just a short 10 minutes walk from town. The resort is gorgeous with lots of amenities to make it feel like home. Staff were very responsive and helpful. Would stay again!

Very good experience, everuthing was clean and comfortable. Highly recommended!

Worth every penny. Blew my expectations out of the water!

Magical spot! An immaculate jungle in the jungle. Everything was perfect and comfortable. Really exceptional site. I would recommend it

Endroit magique! Une jungle immaculée dans la jungle. Tout était parfait et confortable. Site vraiment exceptionnel. Je vous le recommande

Amazing place to stay. the room was lovely and the shared kitchen space was perfect. the grounds are beautiful with so much to see and do. the people working on site are very friendly and helpful. so close to everything. we walked into the main town for dinner on an evening. bit tricky with a pram due to rough paths but we managed. wish we could have stayed longer.
