Love the place! The surroundings are amazing and the house perfect to make it your home! Thank u for hosting us!

Thank you, Jessica! We tried to leave everything you might need to be comfortable in the house. It was a pleasure.

A lovely house to be with your family! We really liked it. I loved that it had board games and several options for spending time together 🫰🏼😁 The house is very spacious, clean and beautiful. It has a phenomenal view from the garden 🪴

Una casa encantadora para estar en familia! Nos ha gustado mucho, me encantó que tenía juegos de mesa y varias opciones para convivir 🫰🏼😁 muy amplia, limpia y linda la casa. Tiene una vista fenomenal desde el jardín 🪴

Thank you, Valeria, for your nice review. We are happy that you enjoy the house, the view and the games. We hope you come back to visit us. Pura Vida 🤗

Absolutely phenomenal view of the lake and mountains with so many rolling hills and pastures! We also saw a flock of parrots on the street just past the house and 10+ toucans in the trees on route 142 right before dusk. The home is clean, spacious and there is lots to do even if you are stuck inside due to rain. They also have a super cute children's area with toys and plenty of board games. We only stayed one night on our way back from La Fortuna but loved that it's an easy 1.5 hour drive to Liberia Airport. The home was incredible and if we had more time we would've loved exploring the area. Also loved the recommendations for restaurants. Macadamia Cafe was closed so we ended up at Equus and it was some of the best smoked bbq we ever had. Home had everything we needed and hosts were very responsive and helpful. We would 100% book here again for longer to enjoy the pool also.

Thank you Cristina for taking the time to write such a beautiful review. We are so delighted that you enjoyed the house and the views. We are glad you got to see some birds.  We love the barbecue at Equs also. Would love to welcome you back. Wishing you many blessings and vacations 🤗

We really enjoyed our stay at Mateo and Juanita's place. Despite the temperature and the rainy weather, we enjoyed the comfort of the property. Also, it was very easy to communicate with Mateo; he responds quickly. A good location for visiting the rainforest, and the view was really beautiful!

Nous avons vraiment apprécié notre séjour chez Mateo et Juanita, malgré la température et le temps pluvieux, nous avons bien apprécié le confort de la propriété. Également, il était très facile de communiquer avec Mateo, il répond rapidement. Un bon emplacement pour visiter la forêt pluvieuse, et la vue était vraiment magnifique!

Dear Valérie, Thank you so much for your lovely review. We are delighted to know that you were so comfortable at our place and that you enjoyed the beautiful view. It's true that it rained a lot during your stay, but rest assured, it doesn't always rain that much here. We would be delighted to host you again, this time in the sun. It was a real pleasure 🤗 See you soon!

A super nice, quiet place, a beautiful house

Un lugar súper lindo, tranquilo, una casa bellísima

Thank you very much, Marines! We are very happy that you like the house. Come back soon 🤗

Thank you, Carolina. It was a pleasure hosting you.

We had a great stay! Our group of 10 had plenty of space, so nobody needed to use the sleeper sofa. The kitchen is well-stocked, the beds are comfortable, and the views are stunning. We even liked looking at the numerous wind turbines nearby. Note that the location can be very windy (hence the wind turbines) and rainy, but the house is stocked with lots of board and card games to entertain guests of all ages. Research the drive to desired attractions so that everyone can have realistic expectations. In the town of Tilaran we found everything we needed, including a doctor and a pharmacy.

Thank you for that review. We are so happy that you enjoyed your stay!Yeah, the wind turbines that dot the horizon do kind of give the landscape some personality. We have worked hard to stock the place well so that people can have a good experience in good weather and bad. Glad you thought so. You’re right about realistic expectations as far as distance from other places. We like to think that in life, the really worthwhile locations take a little time to get to. Anyway we hope to be able to host you again. 🤗

We thoroughly enjoyed our quick stay here. Like others, we needed a place to help break up the drive. We expected something very basic, but this home worked out perfectly and provided a great respite from the hustle and bustle. The view is fantastic and the location very peaceful. The owners were gracious and communicated quickly. I've found many Airbnb's photograph well but leave you a bit disappointed when you arrive. Not the case here - everything is very clean and well designed. You can tell they take much pride in the home. I would absolutely stay here again.

Thank you James! It was such a pleasure to read your review, because the best part of hosting is the guests enjoying their stay. Our goal is for you to feel that you are at home and that you have everything you need.  We do hope to have you again in the near future. Pura vida 😊

The house is in a very quiet area, where you can fully enjoy the nature and take beautiful walks. It is also close to several attractions

Het huis ligt in een zeer rustige omgeving, waar je volop kunt genieten van de natuur en mooie wandelingen kunt maken. Het ligt bovendien dicht bij verschillende bezienswaardigheden

Great place and was the perfect first night stop for our family. We flew into LIR and were headed for a few stops and used this as a nice place to just land for our first night. Had an amazing view of the lake, volcano, nice little pool and putting greens turned out to be a lot more fun than we even expected. Hosts were super about providing some restaurant recommendations for us and very responsive!

It truly made us so happy to read your review John! As we get the house ready for guests,  we try to imagine how they’re going to love it and we really enjoy sharing our home. Hope you and your family will come back and stay with us a little bit longer. Pura Vida 😁

This place was amazing! One of my favorite places I have ever stayed. I halfway thought about quitting my job and moving! To be clear, this place is definitely remote. We arrived after dark and it was a little difficult to navigate. Other than that, it was fantastic. We loved being out in the country and seeing cows all around. Only wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy more of what the area has to offer. Thank you for a lovely stay!

Thank you Kyle for saying that it was one of your favorites. It makes us very happy to know that you enjoyed our place. We sure hope you can come back to visit us again. Wishing you the best!

We had a very pleasant stay. Thank you very much.

Nous avons passé un très agréable séjour.  Merci beaucoup

Thank you, Warner 🤗 It was a pleasure to welcome you to the house.

We had such a great time at Mateo & Joanitas place. So beautiful and we loved the winds. We had 9 children with us and they loved it and did not want to leave! Mateo & Joanita have really thought about how to make guests feel welcome. There were 4 adults and all said they slept great. This is a great stay and we are so glad to choose this place.

Thank you so much for the kind words, Ryan! We are thrilled to hear you all had such a great time. You were a pleasure to host, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime you’re in the area! Reviews like these are what makes our job fun. Wishing you and your family many blessings.

Incredible view and very responsive owners. We only stayed 1 night so didn't use the pool, but it was well-maintained and very clean.

Thanks Barry! Appreciate the nice review. We hope to host you again and maybe for a longer stay.

La Vista was the perfect vacation place for our family. It was peaceful with beautiful views. It was a good location for us to do day trips to La Fortuna Waterfalls, Monteverde Cloud Forest, and  Rio Negro Hot Springs (to avoid the crowds). We would also recommend the Equus and Brisas del Lago restaurants. Thank you to our wonderful hosts who were very responsive and helpful!

We are very happy that you enjoyed the views and the peacefulness. Because you wanted to visit La Fortuna and Monteverde, and we are right in the middle, so I’m glad you found that convenient. It was a pleasure hosting you and your family. Please come back to visit. Pura vida!

We went with the family to celebrate in Tilaran Was an amazing time , beautiful house

Thank you Mariana for saying the house is beautiful. Would love to have you and your family come visit us again.

This was a great stay with beautiful views and fun playing putt putt. My friends and I would recommend this stay when coming to the area

Thank you Garbriel for this nice review. We are very happy that you guys enjoyed the putt putt and the views. Would love to have you again. Wishing you the best!

We enjoyed our short stay here! Mateo and Joanita were extremely responsive to the questions we had. They had cute toys for our young kids to play with and little chairs to sit in in the house, which was nice. They also provided a pack and play and booster seat. We knew this from the pictures before booking, but we did need to keep a close eye on our baby and young toddler around the stairs in the house. Just the nature of the way the house was built. Thank you for the nice stay, Mateo and Joanita!

We had a lovely stay at Mateo and Joanita’s. The place had everything we needed and more. It was nice and tidy and the views were incredible. 

The wind during our two day stay was insane - it prevented us from enjoying the pool/ lounging areas/ BBQ. This made it a bit challenging to occupy 5 kids. But there were lots of toys and games indoors to occupy the kids.

Thank you so much for your attention, we will definitely be back.

muchas gracias por la atencion, en definitiva volveremos.

It would be a pleasure Carlos, to host you in the house again. We're glad you like the house. Pura vida!

Very clean house, beautiful property. Absolutely amazing service!

Thank you Candace for writing us such a nice review. We are very happy that you enjoyed the house and your vacation. We take pleasure in getting the house ready with the thought of guests coming and enjoying themselves.

Thank you Daniel 😊 It was a pleasure to share the house with you

Mateo and Juanita, Thank you for letting us experience your little slice of heaven. The place was everything we could have asked for. Everything was thought of and easy to find. My children had a blast playing the golf outside and fooseball table inside. The loft with toys also gave unless hours of entertainment for them. Truly a fantastic spot to spend some vacation time. Steve, Ashley, Jeremy, Ethan and Abigail From Ottawa, Ontario, Canada

Thank you Steve for taking the time to write this beautiful review. It reallyis a pleasure to know that you enjoyed the house with your family. As we get the house ready for guests coming, we take pleasure in the thoughts of all the laughters and fun that will come from it different aspects of the house. Hope to host you again. Wishing you many blessings.

Amazing house, we were always comfortable

Casa increíble, siempre estuvimos a gusto

Thanks Ignacio for saying the house was amazing. I'll be back soon 🤗

Beautiful place with a great view and very neat.

Hermoso lugar con gran vista y muy ordenado.

Thank you Cristian! I'm glad you like the view and the house. You're welcome 🤗

Everything was beautiful, it has many amenities, it is a spacious and cozy Airbnb ❤️ We loved it!

Estuvo hermoso todo, tiene muchas comodidades, es un Arbnb amplio y acogedor ❤️ Nos encantó!

Thank you Kristy 🤗 I'm glad you loved the house. It would be a pleasure to welcome you back to the house. Pura vida!

Great place! Clean and organized and well stocked. We enjoyed our one night stay in there. Very good communication. Amazing view! Will stay there again if we are in the area. A dishwasher addition would be great!

Thank you Hamed🤗 We are pleased to know that you enjoyed your stay. You are more than welcome back anytime.

My family and I spent Christmas at Mateo and Jonanita's house, we had an amazing time. It was our first Christmas away from home and we felt right at home, that's the feeling the house gives. They welcomed us with gifts and even decorations that made us feel very well received 🥰 Tierras Morenas is a beautiful place and the location is perfect from wherever you look at it

Con mi familia pasamos navidad en la casa de Mateo y Jonanita, la pasamos increíble. Fue nuestra primer navidad fuera de nuestra casa y nos sentimos como en nuestro hogar, es la sensación que da la casa. Nos recibieron con regalitos y hasta adornitos que nos hicieron sentir muy bien recibidos 🥰 Tierras Morenas es un lugar precioso y la ubicación está perfecta desde donde la mires

Thank you very much Diana for this nice review. We are happy that you like our house. She is always welcome with her family. Pure life 🤗

The place is very well stocked. Lots of kitchen items, games, a football table, mini golf course, pool, etc. Also a great view of the lake. The hosts were very friendly and responsive and everything was well maintained. Two downsides that are not really the fault of the hosts: first, there didn’t seem to be many attractions nearby. We wound up driving 30-60 minutes to visit attractions most days. Second, when we were there (in December) it was very windy. This limited the utility of the pool and other outdoor amenities.

Thanks Timothy for leaving us a 5 star review. We are so happy that you enjoyed the house, the views and the games. You have a lovely family. Would love to have you guys again and hopefully with less wind. Wishing you the best

Beautiful home that oversees lake Arenal. The home is very nice ands the ghost are very responsive and proactive. I’d rent from them again.

Thanks Jonathon for taking the time to write us a nice review. Hope to see you soon.

Thanks to the hosts, the experience was wonderful. We had a very peaceful and quiet time as a family. Surrounded by relaxing landscapes and quality time. The attention we received made us feel welcome and calm. Definitely a wonderful time.

Gracias a los anfitriones, la experiencia fue maravillosa. En familia pasamos con mucha paz, y tranquilidad. Rodeado de paisajes relajantes y tiempo de calidad. La atención recibida nos hizo sentir bienvenidos y tranquilos. Sin duda un momento maravilloso.

We can’t say enough about them! They went above and beyond to make us comfortable, left the kids little gifts. The house was well equipped in all areas. The kitchen had plenty of stuff to cook with, lots of toys and games for the kids! We enjoyed our stay and loved the restaurants near by.

Thanks a lot Andrea for taking the time to write this beautiful review. We are so glad you liked the house, our kitchen and that the kids had fun with toys and games. We hope to host you again. Many blessings to you and your family 😊

The place is beautiful, spacious, safe...! My family and I went for a day and had a great time. I recommend it, it has a very nice view, there is a restaurant nearby. I would come back again

El lugar es hermoso, amplio, seguro..! Mi familia y yo fuimos por un día y la pasamos genial. Se los recomiendo tiene una vista muy bonita, hay un restaurante cerca. Volvería otra vez

Thank you Esteban🤗 We are very happy that you loved the house, the views and that you felt at home. We would love to welcome you again. Pura Vida!

A big thank you to them again. perfect stay 😀👍

We only spent one night, but the place is incredibly cozy and magical, we would definitely return!

Pasamos solo una noche, pero el lugar increíblemente  acogedor y mágico, regresaríamos sin duda!

Excellent place, from the house to the beautiful views, and not to mention the service. Highly recommended

Excelente lugar desde la casa hasta las hermosas vistas y ni que decir de la atención.  recomendadisimo

Thank you very much, Ingrid! It was a pleasure to host you and your family. We are very happy to know that you liked the house and the beauty of the nature around it

The facilities are very nice, very clean and spectacular views.

Las instalaciones están muy bonitas, muy aseadoy vistas espectaculares.

Best place to stay in Tilaran, close to everything. There were 14 of us and everyone had more than enough space to feel comfortable. The kitchen has all the utensils you might need. The pool was nice and the scenery is breathtaking. There are shops nearby in the city center in case you need food, alcohol, etc. We were lucky enough to attend the city's 100-year-old horse parade, it was so beautiful. We will definitely come back and thank you so much to Mateo and Joanita.

Le meilleur endroit pour séjourner à Tilaran, proche de tout. Nous étions 14 personnes et tout le monde avait plus qu'assez d'espace pour se sentir à l'aise. La cuisine dispose de tous les ustensiles dont vous pourriez avoir besoin. La piscine était bien et le paysage est à couper le souffle. Il y a des magasins à proximité au centre ville au cas où vous auriez besoin de nourriture, d'alcool, etc. Nous avions eu la chance d'assister au défilé à cheval de 100 ans de la ville, c'était trop beau. Nous y reviendrons certainement et merci beaucoup à Mateo et Joanita.

It warmed our hearts to hear that this was the best place to stay in Tilaran. We love to cook, so we made sure the kitchen was well-equipped. It was a pleasure hosting you. See you soon for an adventure in the mountains, I hope.

Peaceful and beautiful place, I recommend it!

Endroit paisible et magnifique je recommande !

Thank you Martin ☺️ Nature is very present and it gives a feeling of peace. See you soon I hope!

Thanks Josh! We are glad you felt at home.

The view was great and Joanita was very responsive to some unfortunate issues  that came up when you own a house. The house was ideal for six of us, with plenty of beds and space to eat and relax. We also met several neighbors who were very helpful in making it a great vacation. I strongly suggest that one follow the directions given by Mateo and Joanita and do not use the pin location on the airbnb map as it is way off mark.

Great experience, a spectacular house with a beautiful view of Arenal Lake, an incredible host, highly recommended

Gran experiencia una casa espectacular con vista hermosa al lago del Arenal, un anfitrión increíble, super recomendado

Wait!....if you are searching for a place to stay in Costa Rica; more specifically Tilaran, Stop searching you have found it. Joanita's and Mateo's property is exactly as described and more. I could go on and on, but other's who stayed there have previously said it all.

Thank you Tony! We are so glad that it met your expectations. We enjoy hosting and the best is when our guests appreciate the house and the environment. Looking forward to host you guys again 😊

Beautiful house and views! Joanita was very helpful and responsive. We enjoyed our stay!

Thank you Janette 🤗 we are so happy that you enjoyed the house and the views. Pura vida! Come again !

Beautiful home with wonderful touches for making us feel right at home.

Thank you Wes 🤗 Hope you come visit us again. Pura Vida!

We absolutely loved their home. It was just as expected and more. It’s definitely peaceful. They were so quick to respond to us any time we needed suggestions. We didn’t have a car so being that secluded was a challenge but they were helpful in telling us where to walk and it was perfect. Thank you again for sharing this with us.

Thank you Brooke 😊 We are glad you were pleased. It is a peaceful area, perfect for relaxation. Communicating with was a pleasure. Come back again soon.

The house is a 100! The place is beautiful, beautiful views!

La casa es un 100! El lugar hermoso, vistas lindisimas!

We had a great time at this Airbnb. The place was very clean, well maintained and exactly as described. The beds were particularly comfortable, which greatly contributed to our comfort throughout the stay. We didn't lack anything: all amenities were present and well thought out. The host was welcoming and responsive. We would highly recommend this listing and would not hesitate to return!

Nous n’avons manqué de rien : toutes les commodités étaient présentes et bien pensées. L’hôte était accueillant et réactif. Nous recommandons vivement ce logement et n’hésiterons pas à y revenir !

Thank you very much Stéphan, for your compliments. We make it a point to ensure that our guests have a pleasant and comfortable stay. We really hope that you will come back to visit us very soon and escape to the mountains from your daily routine. Thank you 🤗

The place was super cozy, very spacious, they thought of absolutely everything. Easy access, and the views are spectacular. Super recommended. 🇨🇷🇨🇷

Thank you very much Fanny,🤗 I'm so glad you like the house and the view. Come back soon! You and your family are very welcome

Great place to be at away from the tourism away from other popular places. One and half hour from La Fortuna and Monteverde. Beautiful place and great hosts.

Thank you Joel 🤗 you and your family were great guests. We are glad you enjoyed the tranquility and serenity of the environment. Hope you come back soon.

House was great, just as listed in description. Mateo was responsive to any questions we had. Instructions were clear and everything was new and clean. Really enjoyed the property.

Thank you Collin! We do enjoy hosting and are very please you enjoyed the house. Hope you come back again in the near future.

Excellent place, very nice place, quiet, very cool, it is very well distributed, and has more than necessary, it has a lot of space, many games, the terrace is very nice, we will definitely come back, the service was excellent!

Excelente lugar, lugar muy bonito,  tranquilo, muy fresco, esta muy bien distribuido, y tiene más de lo necesario, tiene mucho espacio, muchos juegos, la terraza muy linda, sin duda volveremos, la atención fue excelente!

Mateo and Joanita’s place was beautiful!! The view was breathtaking with the lake and mountains. It was a bit windy at all times but it felt nice in the Costa Rican heat! We had fun swimming. The hosts were responsive and helpful. All in all we felt peaceful and relaxed! Restaurant Equus had delicious food nearby-recommend!

Thanks Han and we are very happy to hear you enjoyed the house and the view. Come visit us again!

Awesome remote mountain place. Might be the most beautiful thing we’ve ever seen

Thank you Alexander! It warms our hearts to hear that. We hope to be able to host you again. Mother Nature will be waiting for you too.

Loved this house’s location and the views! We felt so at peace at this house and were happy with the hosts communication and hospitality. Thank you for the experience!

So glad you enjoyed the house and the view. Hope to host you again. You are a pleasant guest.

Matao and Joanita were amazing hosts! They responded to all of our questions quickly and offered extra help contacting local residents for extra amenities like cooking or fresh food. They left us some treats for the kids and were genuinely caring about our stay at their house in Costa Rica. I had fresh (delicious) coffee and hot chocolate in the morning which made me feel right at home. The house was immaculate and that was quite refreshing after a long day of travelling. I would highly recommend staying at this house if you’re looking for a nice quiet countryside ambiance.

Thank you Jason. We are so glad you liked our house. We love hosting and get excited at the thought of our guests enjoying our little corner in the world. You and your family were great guests. Come again 🤗

what a beautiful villa. Absolutely fantastic location..it waa such a privilege to wake up each morning to a View of the volcano.. without the crowds. The property is really well equipped..we loved everything. plus the neighbourhood was so friendly, everyone we met was super helpful. Juanita waa extremely proactive and always responsive..an excellent host. and thank you again to David for rescuing us and our car... thank you. we definitely hope to return

It pleases us to know you enjoyed the view and the house. You were a  pleasant guest to communicate with. We look foward to hosting you and your family again🤗

The is house is exactly as described. Well stocked with everything you could need, comfortable, clean and we felt right at home. Joanita was extremely friendly, helpful and responsive. We ate at Lake Arenal Brewery and the seafood restaurant in the house’s recommendations book and both were delicious. We loved our stay! Highly recommend!

Thank you Tricia 🤗 It pleases us to hear that you enjoyed the house. We love to cook and eat out. I am glad you enjoyed the restaurants in the neighborhood. It was a pleasure hosting you and your family. Hope to see you in the near future. Pura Vida!

Very spacious, comfortable and well equipped house. The bathrooms are very clean, beds very comfortable. The internet commection - excellent. The hosts were very helpful and attentive, providing useful recommendations. The house is located on hills surrounding Lake Arenal. The views are fantastic and there are no immediate neighbours, which we appreciated. I would love to give it 5 stars, but I rated it 4 stars due to the wind. During our stay, it was very, very windy. What it means: the wind generated big, unpleasant noise heard inside almost 24/7, some equipment located outdoors was moved by the wind (like garden armchairs or even big dust bins). And of course using the pool was practically impossible. I understand that we arrived during windy season and it may not be an issue for guests arriving in different season. Water in the pool was a bit too cool for use to swim, even if there was no wind.

Hi Pawel, thank you for all the nice compliments for the house. I’m glad you appreciated those things . I’m so sorry the wind made your stay with us less than ideal. Yeah, we just recently heard on the news that your stay coincided with the windiest period in the last 10 years. Hope to see you again with some 🌞 sunshine.

The house is beautiful, unfortunately the bad weather didn't arrive, but everything was perfect as the ad says.  We had some issues and they were very kind to resolve them.

La casa hermosa, lamentablemente no tocó mal clima pero todo estaba perfecto como dice el anuncio.  Tuvimos algunos inconvenientes y fueron muy amables para resolverlos.

Thank you Mariano. I hope she comes back again and that there is not so much rain. To enjoy the view, the pool and play golf.

It was an amazing stay! Beautiful and convenient house. We'll be happy to go back!! I'm sure we'll see you soon.

C’était un séjour incroyable ! Une maison magnifique et pratique. Nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir !! À très bientôt j’en suis sûre

Thank you very much Florine! You and your family are always welcome and see you soon

We highly recommend this beautiful home for its location and unique environment. Beautiful view of the lake and surroundings. The home was clean, had games for the kids, well-equipped, and friendly host. Book this home as you travel throughout the beautiful country as it’s a great spot to land near the lake. We ate at Macademia restaurant and had bbq at Equus. 5 stars!

Tiffany you are a jewel with your eloquent words. It warms my heart when people come to our little corner of the world and they are pleased. Life is full of different types of pleasures and it’s a blessing to be part of the dance. Come back anytime 🤗

Beautiful place, everything was spotless, amazing views and surroundings, perfect place to get away and rest!!!

Thank you Jolister! I love that he liked the house and the beautiful view that God gave us

Mateo and Joanita’s house is very beautiful and clean. It has a beautiful lake view. Mateo and Joanita gave us clean instructions and local recommendations too. Thank you!

Thank you Yajun for the compliments. We are so glad that you enjoyed your stay. It makes us very happy when guests have a good time. Hope we can host you again.

Mateo & Joanita are amazing and helpful people. Their Airbnb is beautiful with great views of the lake and the volcano.

Thank you Jasmin! We are glad you enjoyed the view and the house. Please feel free to come back for a visit again. Happy Holidays 🎄

Thank you Tam. Hope to have you at La Vista again.

We are a large family and we decided to wash this beautiful house for our Christmas dinner, we spent a very pleasant night. The kitchen is nicely equipped and the games are great for the kids.

Somos una familia numerosa y decidimos rentar esta hermosa casa para nuestra cena navideña, pasamos una noche muy agradable. La cocina está muy bien equipada y los juegos son geniales para los niños.

Thank you Dyanne! We are so glad you like the house. We love to cook so we make sure the kitchen is equipped. Don't hesitate to come back when you want

Absolutely as described and as beautiful as it looks. All furnishings were there and working. Hosts are quick and excellent communicators. This place is utterly serene and a tonic. It feels like you're on top of the world and in a sense alone, but not lonely. There are plenty of places near with a short walk or car ride. We experienced a windy night storm that only added to the mood and was incredible to witness at high elevation. Truly in every sense of the word a majestic scene.

We are so happy to hear you guys enjoyed your stay. That was a very poetic review, better than we could’ve said it ourselves, thank you 😊 Please feel free to come back anytime.

This was an amazing home. Great views of Arenal, yet far enough from the Arenal hustle. 10/10 recommend.

Thank you Ana for saying we are 10/10, it means a lot. We are so happy when people enjoy the house and the view. You are a great guest and would love to host you and your family again. Life is short, vacations first 🤗

It was a beautiful place to stay. It was clean and well cared for. Hosts were very responsive and check in was a breeze. We will be recommending this home.

Thank you Ana, we are glad you liked the house and you were a great guest too. Pura Vida!

Mateo and Joanita were kind enough to let us stay last minute during our travels. This house was amazing! The views were incredible of the Arenal Volcano. I wish we would have had a little more time to truly enjoy it. We took their suggestion and ate at Equus down the road and it was so good. The house had everything you need. We felt very secure with the gate and the outdoor security cameras. Would definitely stay here again!

We’re so glad you enjoyed your stay. I hope to host you again soon. Yeah it really is something, isn’t it, when the Aranel volcano appears on horizon.

Excellent place with a wonderful view, the house is impeccable and with everything you need for a family stay.

Thank you Gui. You are welcome when you want to return

Thank you for an amazing stay! A few notes: This is a brand-new house and still has that fresh house smell! The house is clean and beautifully designed.  The host was responsive and made sure that we felt comfortable and even left each of us with a little gift (we won’t give you the details so you are surprised.) Communication was easy and we heard back from our host within minutes. The amenities were plentiful and new.  We wanted for nothing which is important when traveling with kids. The Kids stayed in the lovely pool for the whole night which was complete with a beautiful fountain. There were even new boards games for the kids to keep them occupied while we grilled out back. The views from the porch are simply breathtaking.  The house is set on a hilltop which allows for unobstructed views.  This gave us a sense of peace and calm that is hard to replicate. I felt safe and secure during our stay.  It was the perfect spot and we look forward to booking again next year.

We are very happy that you and your family enjoyed your stay and liked our house. The nature surrounding the house really fills up the soul. I hope it filled up your soul as well. And hope you and your family will come back soon.

It was such a pleasure staying at the house. The view was incredible. The house was comfortable and clean, and the kitchen was well equipped. We loved being on the balcony and taking in the beauty of those mountains and the volcano. That’s where we would have breakfast , we used the folding table and chairs they had. That was a great way to start our day. We did some great activities like going to the swinging bridge park and the hot springs, and we even milked some cows! They recommended a local cook, Nella. We hired her to make a couple lunches, and she did a great job. Our family really wants to go back there again. Great experience! Thank you!

Excellent service and very nice house. Recommended
