A wonderful family stay! The place is super comfortable and clean, and the facilities are perfect for traveling with children. We will definitely be back.

Una estancia maravillosa en familia! El lugar es supercómodo, limpio y las instalaciones son perfectas para viajar con niños. Sin duda volveremos.

Thank you so much. It was a pleasure to host you in our house.

Pictures were exactly as listed! Great stay with easy access.

Super nice place, perfect for a getaway from the city. The perfect house, super equipped with everything.

Super lindo el lugar, perfecto para una escapada de la ciudad. La casa perfecta, súper equipada con todo.

Let me start by saying the view is absolutely breathtaking. The pool is amazing, and so are all the amenities. Honestly, every kitchen item and appliance you could possibly need was available, which made our stay even more comfortable. The only downside is that unless you’re renting a car, getting supplies can be a bit challenging since there aren’t any markets or stores within walking distance. I relied mostly on Uber during my stay, and it was very easy and hassle free, but I would recommend bringing any essentials you’ll need if you don’t plan on having a vehicle. Other than that, I highly recommend this place. It completely exceeded my expectations, and I would definitely stay here again and kid friendly.

Beautiful place! Just as advertised. Breathtaking views. Responsive host. Note that close to main road (behind house), so bring ear plugs if want to sleep in. A little scary to drive into road from house, but we solved by one of us holding traffic. Would be same everywhere would imagine. Recommends!

Such a treat! Its a great, well-maintained house, we had plenty of space for 5. Beautiful views, especially when its clear and you can see the top of the volcano! We spotted lots of toucans, one even sat in the neighbour's tree. You'll need a car, but the road is perfectly accessible and easy access to La Fortuna (15-20 mins drive).

Amazing view. Waking up to jungle and volcano in background was incredible.

A great house, with a perfect view of the volcano. The pool was a nice way to cool off, the kitchen had everything we needed, and there was even a welcome fruit basket. We would have liked to have stayed longer.

ein tolles Haus, mit perfektem Ausblick auf den Vulkan. der Pool war eine schöne Abkühlung, die Küche hatte alles was wir brauchten und es gab sogar einen Obstkorb zur Begrüßung. wir wären gerne länger geblieben.

Great place to stay! Secluded, but close enough to everything in the La Fortuna area.

The views from this Airbnb were truly spectacular. The property was immaculate and had all essential amenities, including a washer and dryer. The pool was excellent.

If you are considering a stay in the La Fortuna area, this Airbnb is highly recommended. Please do not be discouraged by reviews mentioning rough roads to access the location; the roads have been recently paved, and we encountered no issues reaching the property.

Arenal volcano is very easy to reach. With full occupancy with 5 - 6 persons, an additional toilet would be useful

Vulkan Arenal sehr gut zu erreichen. Bei Vollbeleging mit 5 - 6 Personen wäre noch eine zusätzliche Toilette nützlich

We loved the location overlooking the volcano!

Nous avons adoré l’emplacement avec vue sur le volcan!

Great host! The house was clean, tidy and matched the photos and description of the listing. Nice touch with the fruit on arrival. Great house, pool and all the amenities we needed. Thank you.

Super hôte! La maison était propre, bien rangée et correspondait aux photos et description de l'annonce. Belle attention avec les fruits en arrivant. Super maison, piscine et toutes les commodités dont nous avions besoin. Merci.

gracias. fue un gusto tenerlos en nuestra villa

We enjoyed our stay. Everything was just as mentioned. Absolutely beautiful view. Great memories had by all!

This is one of the nicest airbnbs I have ever stayed at. The photos above do not do it justice. Breathtaking views, great amenities, and strong communication with the host. If you are thinking about booking this place, book it. We had the best experience here!!

Great place with a great view. If you’re lucky you’ll see the whole volcano when it’s clear. peaceful and private stay.

Our stay was simply unforgettable. Since we arrived we felt an incredible peace: the accommodation was impeccable, with everything you need and more. Every morning we woke up with the best view of the volcano, a living postcard that I will never forget. The jacuzzi was a dream, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the silence of the place. Communication with Franklin was first class, always attentive, friendly and willing to help. Thanks to him we met Katerin, a wonderful guide who took us to discover beautiful places and treated us as if we were her family. This place really has something special... that unique vibe that makes you feel like you're exactly where you need to be. I would definitely come back a thousand times. Pura Vida!

Nuestra estancia fue simplemente inolvidable. Desde que llegamos sentimos una paz increíble: el alojamiento estaba impecable, con todo lo necesario y más. Cada mañana despertábamos con la mejor vista al volcán, una postal viva que jamás se me va a olvidar. El jacuzzi fue un sueño, perfecto para relajarnos y disfrutar del silencio del lugar. La comunicación con Franklin fue de primera, siempre atento, amable y dispuesto a ayudar. Gracias a él conocimos a Katerin, una guía maravillosa que nos llevó a descubrir rincones hermosos y nos trató como si fuéramos de su familia. De verdad, este lugar tiene algo especial… esa vibra única que te hace sentir que estás exactamente donde debes estar. Sin dudarlo, volvería una y mil veces. ¡Pura vida!

Fantastic house in beautiful surroundings. Quiet area. It was easy to drive to the different activities and hikes.

Fantastisk hus i flotte omgivelser. Stille og roligt område. Det var let at køre til de forskellige aktiviteter og hikes.

Franklins place was beautiful and had everything we needed. The views were spectacular of the volcano and the location was close to the grocery store, restaurants and attractions. The only downside was the backing out onto a blind curve; it was nerve wrecking every time.

The house is cozy, the place is very quiet, the pool is small but delicious to end the day in. in general we were very satisfied.

La casa es acogedora el lugar muy tranquilo la piscina es pequeña pero deliciosa para terminar el día en ella. en general quedamos muy satisfechos.

What a great place to stay. We enjoyed our stay as a family. It was super clean, the location a dream, Franklin a very responsive and nice host. We regret that we were only there for one week. We would come back.

Was für eine tolle Unterkunft. Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt als Familie sehr genossen. Es war super sauber, die Lage ein Traum, Franklin ein sehr reaktionsschneller und netter Gastgeber. Wir bedauern es, dass wir nur eine Woche dort waren. Wir würden wieder kommen.

Wonderful house immerse in nature close enough to all the activities. The house is great place to rest between tours. Beautiful kitchen, the private pool is amazing, easy check in and the host helped us with many recommendations. Thanks Ruth and Franklin

Our stay was very pleasant and relaxing, what we were looking for, away from the city, it would be great to see it in summer to see the volcano in all its splendor. The location is great and the viewpoint to see the volcano is excellent. We loved the pool with a waterfall and warm water.

nuestra estancia fue muy agradable y relajante lo que estabamos buscamos, alejado de la ciudad, seria genial verlo en verano para poder ver el volcán en todo su esplendor esta genial la posición y el que  mirador que tiene para ver el volcán excelente nos encantó la piscina con cascada y agua temperada.

This stay was wonderful- host provided water and fruit for us, the kitchen was VERY well equipped and home was clean (and pretty new). Secure and peaceful, the little pool and waterfall were perfect to relax after a day of exploring. Washer and dryer access was so helpful, huge bonus! Spectacular views! we had great luck and saw the volcano clearly. We would happily stay here again! Muchas gracias, Franklin.

Beautiful view of the volcano! The house is very clean. There is a very good restaurant 200 meters from the house. We enjoyed our stay! Thanks Franklin!

Superbe vue sur le volcan! La maison est très propre. Il y a un très bon restaurant à  200 mètres de la maison. Nous avons aimé notre séjour! Merci Franklin !

Very nice place located in the mountains. The road is under construction, it will be easier to access. The accommodation is perfect… only point to consider is that it's a shortcut to La Fortuna so the road is occupied by local workers. Thanks

Très belle endroit situé en montagne la route est en construction sera plus facile d’accès le logement est parfait…seul point à considérer c’est un raccourci pour LaFortuna donc la route est occupée par les travailleurs du coin Merci

amazing views! about 20 min from town if you dont take the recommended road by the gps. it looks à lot better than the pictures. very peaceful and full kitchen and well equipped. the drive can be tricky at night if rainy or foggy so i suggest driving during the day. everything was good.

gracias fue un gusto alojarlos en nuestra villa

Exceptional stay! This place exceeded our expectations in every way. The house was immaculately clean, stylishly decorated, and perfectly equipped with everything we needed. The location was ideal, surrounded by great restaurants and cafes. But what truly made our stay special was Franklin's warm hospitality and attention to detail. They were always responsive and went above and beyond to ensure we felt welcome and comfortable. We can't recommend this place highly enough! If you're looking for a seamless and enjoyable Airbnb experience, look no further. We can't wait to come back!

muchas gracias fue un gusto tenerlos en nuestra villa.... vuelvan cuando gusten

This is a hidden gem in the La Fortuna region. Nestled atop a hill, it offers the best view of Arenal volcano and surrounding valleys. The view is out of this  world. Franklin was so responsive and generous, what an amazing host. We arrived to fruits and snacks and bottles of water which was a nice attention. The house looks even better than the photos. The only caveat is that it requires driving uphill a bit, but you're in Costa Rica, and it's completely worth it when you witness that view. Pura Vida!

muchas gracias karine vuelvan cuando quieras será un gusto alojarlos de nuevo ...

The view is stunning! Loved the cows grazing. Easy to get to and pretty close to Fortuna. The overall place is okay. The ac is only in the bedroom so it gets stuffy everywhere else. The kitchen is not very well stocked. Only one tiny knife is good enough to actually cut something. Pots and pans are very outdated and make cooking hard. Otherwise everything else is fine.

muchas gracias lo solucionamos a lo inmediato

Great stay and view. Host was very accommodating.

Franklin is a wonderful host! Super attentive and helpful. The space has amazing views and sweet landscapes. If you want to be off the beaten path for Arenal or La Fortuna this is the place. Thank you!

Beautiful place, wonderful host who was very responsive.

We liked the stay, the view of the volcano was amazing! Nice hot tub. The location was quiet, the grazing cows in the field below was a nice touch. Close restaurant,  close resort with hot springs. Downtown was minutes away.

It was a fantastic house, above expectations.

Franklins place was, WOW beautiful! The view is to die for. It is so much better than in the photo's.  We spent majority of our time outside in the waterfall pool, or staring at the view of the Volcano. Franklin was very good at communicating and responded very quickly. I have nothing bad to say at all! Superb. We will be back.

The place is better than the pictures and descriptions. Very clean. Loved the decoration.  Everything was perfect.  They left delicious fruits.

muchas gracias fue un gusto tenerlos en nuestra casa

A place too nice, we loved everything, we look forward to returning at another opportunity

Un lugar demasiado lindo, nos encantó todo, esperamos volver en otra oportunidad

Wow, is the first word out of my mouth. This country home offers the most spectacular view of the volcano. Franklin offered great instructions on the location and all the services the home offered. Instantly, we felt like we were at home. Franklin’s home was very clean and well kept. If you are looking for a quiet and relaxing, but also close to many attractions, then this country home is a must! This home was very hard to leave as it was so beautiful, Definitely a home to return for another vacation.

muchas gracias te esperamos cuando gustes

Excellent service, place with a spectacular view of the volcano. Everything was very clean…

Franklin’s country home was a peaceful getaway from the hustle and bustle of the city. Amazing views of the volcano and the country side and even some friendly neighbor cows that like to hang around just over the fence. It’s a bit out of town maybe a 15 min drive. We tried to make it back the first night on a moped and that was quite the adventure. Ended up having to rent a car but once we had a car it really wasn’t a big deal to drive into town and opened so many more opportunities like visiting the hot springs and Lake Arenal a short drive away. There are also 2 really good restaurants right by Franklins house one within walking distance and the other maybe a 3 min drive so you don’t have to go into town to go out to eat. Franklin was a great host. He lives next door and gave us privacy but was also available for anything we needed. Overall we really enjoyed our stay here and I would highly recommend as long as you are willing to rent a car.

Very nice accommodation, well equipped. Only small detail is the smell very present despite 2 fans running 24/7 in the children's room. Also lots of ants as soon as you put something in the trash can or on the counter. So everything in the fridge or in closed containers and trash can emptied 1-2x/dr. Very helpful and responsive host. Very nice stay.

Très beau logement, bien équipé. Seul petit détail l’odeur très présente malgré 2 ventilateurs en marche 24/7 dans la chambre des enfants. Aussi beaucoup de fourmis dès que l’on dépose quelque chose dans la poubelle ou sur le comptoir. Donc tout au frigo ou dans contenants fermé et poubelle vidé 1-2x/jr. Hôte très serviable et réactif. Très beau séjour.

Muchas gracias por tu odservacion lo solucionaremos de inmediato

Amazing views, close to supermarket and restaurants. Also very close to the hot springs resort.

Vistas increíbles, cerca de supermercado y restaurantes. Muy cerca también del hot springs resort.

Excellent service, Mr. Frank is very attentive and encourages him to attend to the guest's needs. The house is beautiful, the area is very quiet and the views are beautiful. Fruit greetings and everything... Thank you so much for your attention, we hope to return

Excelente servicio, dn Frank muy atento y anuente a atender las necesidades del huésped.. La casa preciosa, la zona muy tranquila y las vistas preciosas. Recibidos con frutas y todo... Muchas gracias por la atención, esperamos volver

The accommodation is excellent, however I had problems on my arrival as the address in the listing was very ambiguous, the place is amazing and has phenomenal views. Important to mention that as in all of Costa Rica the way to get to the Airbnb is on a steep slope, be prepared.

El alojamiento es excelente, sin embargo tuve problemas a mi llegada ya que la dirección en el anuncio era muy ambigua, el lugar está increible y tiene unas vistas fenomenales. Importante mencionar que como en todo Costa Rica el camino para llegar al Airbnb es por una pendiente inclinada, ir preparado.

Franklin's attention and kindness were the best. To welcome us, he left us a very rich fruit basket. The accommodation is impeccable with a spectacular view of the Arenal Volcano. In the evenings, after walks, arriving and enjoying the Jacuzzi made the stay very pleasant. The facilities are in perfect condition, very clean and tidy, recently remodeled or you can see that they give it very good maintenance. Franklin is always very attentive and helpful. Definitely highly recommended.

La atención y amabilidad de Franklin fue lo mejor. Para darnos la bienvenida nos dejó una canasta de frutas muy ricas. El alojamiento impecable con una vista espectacular hacia el volcán Arenal. Por las noches, después de los paseos llegar y disfrutar el jacuzzi hizo la estancia muy placentera. Las instalaciones en perfecto estado, muy limpias y ordenadas, recientemente remodeladas o se ve que le dan muy buen mantenimiento. Franklin siempre muy atento y servicial. Sin duda muy recomendable.
