2BR cabin in La Fortuna

The Rain Forest Cabin w/ Private Pool - Cabins for Rent in La Fortuna, San José, Costa Rica

Simply because of the place, the view, and the nature, 10/10 The cabin is as described.

Simplemente por el lugar la vista y la naturaleza 10/10 La cabaña cumple con lo que dice.

What a fantastic place. We greatly enjoyed this place. Really a little paradise in the greenery. Lovely swimming pool, beautiful nature, saw lots of animals, nice neighbors. Absolutely recommended

Wat een fantastische plek. We hebben enorm genoten van deze plek. Echt een paradijsje in het groen. Heerlijk zwembad, prachtige natuur, veel dieren gezien, lieve buren. Absoluut een aanrader

We really liked this house. Ideally located, close to La Fortuna but far enough away to enjoy nature. We had a lovely stay there. We saw lots of birds there, including many toucans, barred tanagers, arianas, tyrants... We even saw less friendly animals like the "blue jeans" frog and snakes. In short, we saw more flora and fauna while enjoying the hammock than on the excursion! A super cute dog came to visit us every day, which made our stay even better. We even had a barbecue, which was great. The negative points: too close to the houses next door and the noise of traffic starting at dawn.

Cette maison nous a beaucoup plu. Idéalement située, à proximité de La Fortuna mais suffisamment excentrée pour profiter de la nature, nous y avons passé un très bon séjour. Nous y avons vu plein d'oiseaux dont beaucoup de toucans, des pénélopes panachées, des arianes, des tyrans... Nous avons même vu des animaux moins sympathiques comme la grenouille "blue jeans" et des serpents. Bref, on a vu plus de faune et de flore en profitant du hamac qu'en excursion ! Une chienne trop mignonne est venue nous rendre visite tous les jours, ce qui a enrichi notre séjour. On s'est même fait un barbecue, ce qui était top. Les points négatifs : une trop grande proximité avec les maisons d'à côté et le bruit de la circulation présent dès l'aube.

Getting there was very difficult as the directions were unclear at first and were simply coordinates. However, upon contacting the host, we were finally given an address that led us directly to the house. It is important to specifically ask for this address. Otherwise, you will be lost. The instructions to access the house was straight forward and we were greeted with an adorable dog, who is very friendly and well-trained. Someone came in to clean the pool, which was nice. The view was beautiful and the experience went well.

If you're looking for a place near all the La Fortuna activities , but out where you can see jungle and be private , this is perfect location. It is basic but very charming.  The outside area is what we enjoyed the most. We spotted so many birds and even a tucan. We never ate out so we used the kitchen a lot.  We probably could use one more fry pan , but everything else that you needed was there. The grill  is in the photos but does not work. The pool is about two and a half feet deep , which is perfect for sitting in and our teenagers enjoyed it. We would definitely come back again.

This is a beautiful house literally right next to the rainforest. It’s super close to restaurants and activities as well. Some things to know is that ac didn’t work in one of the rooms, and there isn’t any in the living room. But the biggest thing was that at night there is a huge cicada problem on the patio. Other than that I would highly recommend this Airbnb, especially if you want to be near the nature.

Our place in La Fortuna was simply outstanding! The location in the middle of the rainforest is very special – you wake up in the morning with the sounds of nature and have an incredible backdrop right outside the door. We particularly liked how quiet and close to nature everything is. You really feel like you're in the middle of the jungle without having to sacrifice comfort. The possibility to prepare your own food was also super convenient. The kitchen is well equipped, so you can easily take care of yourself. This makes the stay even more relaxing and flexible. We really enjoyed the time here and would come back anytime. Absolute recommendation for anyone looking for nature, tranquility and a great atmosphere!

Unsere Unterkunft in La Fortuna war einfach überragend! Die Lage mitten im Regenwald ist etwas ganz Besonderes – man wacht morgens mit den Geräuschen der Natur auf und hat eine unglaubliche Kulisse direkt vor der Tür. Besonders gefallen hat uns, wie ruhig und naturverbunden alles ist. Man fühlt sich wirklich mitten im Dschungel, ohne auf Komfort verzichten zu müssen. Auch die Möglichkeit, eigenes Essen zuzubereiten, war super praktisch. Die Küche ist gut ausgestattet, sodass man sich problemlos selbst versorgen kann. Das macht den Aufenthalt noch entspannter und flexibel. Wir haben die Zeit hier sehr genossen und würden jederzeit wiederkommen. Absolute Empfehlung für alle, die Natur, Ruhe und eine tolle Atmosphäre suchen!

It was a good stay. Close to la fortuna and a good price.

Great location for us. Close enough to La Fortuna that we could get in and out easily with a car but private enough to be away from any crowds. Also there is a rain forest walk right outside the house, you can hike down to a creek and see toucans, macaws, parrots etc. loved it. You need an SUV with good ground clearance for this house though.

Small cabin perfect for two with 2 bedrooms, clean. Beautiful view, well manicured grounds. Lots of color. Hosts answered all questions. Friendly and booked excursions per my request. Road is a little rough but, go slow and enjoy. Would definitely stay there again

The promotional pictures did not reflect how dark the interior lighting really was. There was an obvious effort to make the property better lit than it was. The property is situated on a very busy road, which makes for a lot of noise, starting at about 5:30 am. The cooking supplies and utensils could be improved. The property is a great place to observe bird activity ( bring binoculars ). The place is small, but good for a couple. It was conveniently located near tourist attractions around La Fortuna.

Great spot. Very peaceful location. and only 10minutes outside of town. Felt very safe with the locking gate.

Lovely, serene location that is close enough to downtown La Fortuna - only 10 min by car. Well-equipped kitchen, with any kitchen tool or appliance in easy reach. Fantastic communication by the hosts - they are even able to assist with securing tour opportunities!

This is a run down place. I guess I paid $800 for 4 nights and hence, expected a high quality stay for that price. Unfortunately that did not happen and I had to talk to Airbnb to cut short my stay and instead book a hotel. There was only 1 bathroom and the water heater was broken. There wasn’t enough lighting and also, bugs crawl all over the place in the evening, house could be sealed better

It appears that the situation has been significantly exaggerated in an attempt to justify your frustration. The water heater did fail, as any electrical appliance can, but our response was immediate. We informed you right away that we could replace it the following morning. You also did not mention that you reported the issue at 7:25 p.m. on a Saturday, which made it extremely difficult to coordinate a technician. Even so, we managed to send someone that same evening to inspect the unit. The heater needed to be replaced, and we were ready to do so the next morning, but you declined. The next morning, we told you that we could send the technician if you wished to stay, you informed us that you were leaving You were free to leave, but it was not because the problem could not be resolved. Regarding the insects, the cabin is located in a tropical forest. The backyard is literally a forest, and insects are naturally part of that environment. The cabin does not have pests; insects are simply attracted to the lights at night, which is easily avoided by keeping doors and windows closed after dark. Your frustration and the exaggerated nature of your review seem to stem from the fact that a full refund was not approved after three nights of your stay. Airbnb reviewed the case and agreed that a full refund did not apply, confirming that the situation was not as chaotic as described. We regret the inconvenience, but it is not fair to alter the facts out of frustration. We wish you and your family a positive and fulfilling year. Pura Vida.

Amazing location. The cabin had everything we needed. Easy check in and check out. We enjoyed having a kitchen to cook breakfast. We spent a lot of time on the patio and in the pool. Beautiful surriubds! The walking path was a such a treat! Only a fee minutes drive from downtown. This was our absokute favorite part of our trip in Costa Rica.

Wonderful stay, you do need a 4x4 for the big potholes but worth the drive. Nearby restaurant was good, wildlife was great. We saw a toucan, five rare great green macaws  (critically endangered!) - loved the pool and veranda, nice to be out of town but only a short drive to La Fortuna. The road does have a few tour trucks going quickly past with others cars, more than you would think. However, it feels very private and did not detract from our lovely experience of this house.

We had a great time in the rustic cottage. Our boys were especially excited about the pool because they could both touch the bottom - both the 7-year-old and the 3-year-old. The bathroom really needs an update, but besides that, the house had what we needed. We cooked several times and the kitchen worked fine. There is some noise from the road next to it, but we could sleep from it - if you are a person who sleeps lightly, it is probably a nuisance. There is a lovely view and generally a lot to do in La Fortuna. We can definitely recommend the house - especially for other families with small children.

Vi havde et rigtig godt ophold i den rustikke hytte. Vores drenge var især begejstrede for poolen, fordi de begge kunne bunde i den - både ham på 7 og ham på 3. Badeværelset trænger virkelig til en opdatering, men udover det, så havde huset hvad vi skulle bruge. Vi lavede mad flere gange og køkkenet fungerede fint. Der er en del støj fra vejen ved siden af, men vi kunne godt sove fra det - er man en person, der sover let, er det formentlig til gene. Der er en dejlig udsigt og generelt en masse at fortage sig i La Fortuna. Vi kan klart anbefale huset - især til andre børnefamilier med små børn.

pros: beautiful backyard cons: everything else... very noisy and busy dirt road where tour busses go by all day and cars into the night. Beds felt like sleeping on plywood. No comforts at all. Pool is about 3 foot deep and more of a jacuzzi size. Waterfall hike is extremely steep and dangerous. Honestly, would not recommend. Felt like a fancy camping- def not worth the price paid. The last night we had had enough with the loud traffic and terrible beds that we actually rented a hotel room. I dont understand the previous good reviews unless you want to go camping.

Thanks for your review! That is a weird comment, never had any issues with our guests as people can see the other reviews.

Very nice place to stay with private pool. Impressive surroundings, we felt very comfortable.

Sehr schöne Unterkunft mit privatem Pool. Beeindruckende Umgebung, wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt.

An absolutely perfect way to experience the magic of the Costa Rican rain forest!  Very lovely little cabin with all the basic needs for a great stay.  We sat on the patio by the refreshing pool & watched a Toucan fly by & land in a tree.  There are many lovely sounding birds all around & they gently awake you every morning.  So many native plants and flowers surrounding the place. The two hammocks are so relaxing to swing in.  Host was very responsive, within 15 minutes.  Be sure to check out the Chico‘s restaurant which is just 800 m of the road. Cocktails and delicious food while you are surrounded by the rainforest.

The house is beautifully located, the birds chirp and can often be observed from the terrace. The tap water is drinkable and tastes great. The walls of the house are made of wood and let sounds through - but that's why you can also hear the music of the birds in bed. We enjoyed it very much, only the directions, the missing sign on the street and the telephone consultation were bad and we lost some time.

Das Haus liegt wunderschön, die Vögel zwitschern und sind häufig von der Terrasse aus zu beobachten. Das Leitungswasser ist trinkbar und schmeckt hervorragend. Die Wände des Hauses sind aus Holz und lassen Geräusche hindurch- man kann aber deshalb auch im Bett die Musik der Vögel hören. Uns hat es super gut gefallen, nur die Wegbeschreibung, das fehlende Schild an der Straße und die telefonische Beratung sind schlecht gewesen und wir haben einige Zeit verloren.

The AirBnb was amazing. A really authentic experience in the Rain Forrest. Local birds greeting you at sunrise and sundown. The Pin on the map provided took us to a different location and the host had to send me an updated pin. 10 minutes and were back on track. Would recommend people stay here!

Un magnifique endroit pour un séjour agréable

This is a great spot just a 10-minute drive from La Fortuna. It's private, which adds to the charm. However, be prepared for a bumpy road to the cabin; a four-wheel-drive vehicle is recommended. The cicadas can be quite loud, but overall, we had a fantastic stay and thoroughly enjoyed the pool!"

The view was amazing and the trail near the home was wonderful. We were very thankful to have been surrounded with such beauty. Plan on a 4x4 with high clearance to make your way into the neighborhood. But the view is worth the bumps to get there!

Great Location and perfect place for visiting La Fortuna.

The place is so beautiful and peaceful. Away from the busyness of La Fortuna. The host is super responsive and helpful. My son locked himself out of his room at 8pm at night, and they helped us get back in. Even calling a locksmith for us. I really appreciated the assistance and Carmen for all she did so that we could get a good night of sleep. Thanks for everything! 💯 recommend this place.

The surroundings and garden are beautiful. The house has everything you need. You see toucans and other birds every day. Unfortunately, we had some inconveniences on our arrival, which were also not resolved by the local officials and we were not informed in advance that repairs were still to be carried out in the house, which were already known beforehand. You can have a lovely time staying at the property and I think if you don't experience any annoyances on arrival, you won't see many things as so bad. That could certainly have been avoided. It must be said that the owner himself, who unfortunately was not on site, was very nice and also very eager to help.

Die Umgebung und der Garten sind wunderschön. Das Haus hat alles, was man braucht. Man sieht jeden Tag Tukane und andere Vögel. Leider hatten wir bei unserer Ankunft einige Unannehmlichkeiten, die auch nicht von den Verantwortlichen vor Ort gelöst wurden und uns wurde nicht vorab  kommuniziert, dass im Haus noch Reparaturen durchzuführen waren, die aber schon vorher bekannt waren. Man kann eine schöne Zeit in der Unterkunft verbringen und ich denke wenn man nicht schon bei Ankunft Ärgernisse erlebt sieht man viele Dinge auch nicht so eng. Das hätte man sicherlich umgehen können. Man muss sagen, dass der Eigentümer selbst, der leider nicht vor Ort war, sehr nett und auch sehr bemüht war.

This is a gorgeous home with a beautiful grounds to explore in the back. It was very clean when we arrived and the views around constantly stunned us. We did have issues with our inside shower throughout the stay, and would recommend getting a car as Ubers are reluctant to drive on the road. The road was getting paved during our time though so this might not be a persisting issue! Overall we would come back without a doubt, it is very easy to communicate with the home owners.

Wow, what a dream place! In the middle of the jungle overlooking the volcano. We were with 3 kids of 6.4.1 years old. They could swim wonderfully. The road to it is a bit rough so get a good car. We will remember this often, beautiful memories made.

Wauw wat een droomplek! Midden in de jungle met uitzicht op de vulkaan. We waren met 3 kids van 6,4,1 jaar oud. Ze konden heerlijk zwemmen. De weg er naartoe is een beetje ruig dus zorg voor een goede auto. We gaan hier nog vaak aan terugdenken, mooie herinneringen gemaakt.

Checking in and finding the property was extremely easy, there's no way to get lost! The street is not perfect, but it is not so bad either, the pool is quite small in depth, but the Airbnb has everything you need for a pleasant stay, many cloths and blankets and also many utensils to be able to cook breakfasts or dinners. It is quite close to the center of La Fortuna, but far enough away that there is silence and peace in the environment 🙌🏽

El Check in y encontrar la propiedad fue sumamente fácil, no hay como perderse! La calle no está perfecta, pero tampoco está tan mal, la piscina si es bastante pequeñita en profundidad, pero el Airbnb tiene todo lo necesario para una estadía amena, muchos paños y cobijas y también muchos utensilios para poder cocinar desayunos o cenas. Queda bastante cerca del centro de la fortuna, pero lo suficientemente alejado para que haya silencio y paz en el ambiente 🙌🏽

Perfect place in the quiet of the Costa Rican jungle I recommend for a relaxing moment after beautiful days exploring the Fortuna area.

Parfait endroit dans le calme de la jungle costa ricienne Je recommande pour un moment relaxation apres de belles journées à explorer la region de la Fortuna.

We loved it! We had rented this house 5 years past and it is always as pleasant I even saw Pinta the neighbor's dog who hosted us again The only thing that has changed is that now there is a tourist attraction about 5 km from the house and often big trucks pass in front of the house However, it didn't bother us

Nous avons adoré ! Nous avions loué cette maison 5 ans passé et elle est toujours aussi agréable J'ai même revue Pinta la chienne de la voisine qui nous a encore accueilli La seule chose qui a changé est que maintenant il y a un attrait touristique a environ 5 km de la maison et souvent de gros camions passe devant la maison Par contre sa ne nous a pas derangé

Great place, amazing host and stunning views. Looks just like the picture!

We loved the place, it had everything you need

Nos encantó el lugar, tenía todo lo necesario

We sincerely appreciate your kind words — it was an honor to host you during your visit.

My family and I had a wonderful stay. Rooms were great, shower was awesome with the right amount pressure from the shower head. We also had some unexpected visitors, 3 dogs and a cat. We are huge animal lovers and welcomed them to be around us. They were all very friendly. It is also located very close to downtown and was a very short car ride. Home Vacations is very easy to deal with and also helped us book an excursion. Thank you for an amazing stay.

We're happy to know you enjoyed your stay. It will always be a pleasure to welcome you back.

We loved this place. It is like living in a tourist destination by itself as it is surrounded by a spectacular landscape with the imposing volcano in the background! You have a whole mountain with a river and a trail to get to it as a back garden. The house is very cozy and has everything you need for a comfortable and pleasant stay. This time we had to travel with the baby at the age you have to be all the time behind her (1 and a half years), but we are sure that when we hear more (laughs) we will enjoy even more the pisicina and everything the place has to offer!

Nos encantó este lugar. Es como vivir en un destino turístico por si mismo ya que está rodeado de un paisaje espectacular con el imponente volcán al fondo! Tienes toda una montaña con un río y un sendero para llegar a él como jardín trasero. La casa es muy acogedora y dispone de lo necesario para una estadía cómoda y agradable. Esta vez nos tocó viajar con la bebé en la edad que tienes que estar todo el tiempo detrás de ella (1 año y medio), pero estamos seguros que cuando nos haga más caso (risas) disfrutaremos aun más la pisicina y todo lo que el lugar ofrece!

Thank you so much for your lovely message — we’re grateful to have been your hosts.

House is in the jungle.  Saw toucans and many other birds. The pool is only a wading pool, less than 3’ deep. Road getting there is treacherous to say the least, but we made it in a 2wheel drive. The bathroom is a hazard as you have to step down twice to get in. A good jungle experience for the novice!

Thank you for taking the time to leave your comments! It was a pleasure having you with us.

It was really good moment to stay la fortuna.

It was truly a pleasure to host you. Thank you for your kindness and trust.

we arrived super well at the place with the facilitated location! were always friendly and communicative they gave us all the clear instructions for the home the place is beautiful, it has beautiful trails, a super quiet area, if I advise to take repellent because if there is a lot of mosquito but it is normal in the area! the beds, the kitchen, the bathroom everything was in order we loved staying and spending the year!

llegamos súper bien al lugar con la ubicación facilitada! fueron siempre amables y comunicativos nos dieron todas las instrucciones claras para el alojamiento el lugar es precioso, tiene senderos hermosos, una zona súper tranquila, si aconsejo llevar repelente por q si hay mucho mosquito pero es lo normal en la zona! las camas, la cocina el baño todo estaba en orden nos encantó hospedarnos y pasar el año!

This place felt almost magical. Up a steep dirt road and felt like it was in the middle of the rain forest. Saw lots of people coming up the road in cars but wouldn't recommend. Some of the ruts in the road are quite deep - either a crossover or 4x4 should be considered. (This is in the additional information section.) Great little restaurant about 450m up the hill which was unexpected. We saw some great wildlife while up there in the forest behind. The beds were comfy and there was good air conditioning making for good night's sleeps. Two things of note - there is no oven nor toaster oven if that is something you need. And there are two steps down into the bathroom. We left the light on to prevent any tumbles. There is a charcoal barbecue which we used and left overnight to cooldown. We had a tour early the next morning and when we came back it had been cleaned and looked brand new!!! If you're looking for back to nature, check this place out.

Absolutely magical place! If you are looking for a rainforest experience, complete with a view of the volcano, this is I feel like It. I Stayed for five days with a friend & cannot say enough about this incredible cabin. We hiked the trails on the property & explored the amazing rainforest right in the backyard. My breath was taken away several times as was my friends. We were given the opportunity to do a private tour with the groundskeeper, & helped the reforestation by planting two trees. This home is owned by a wonderful family who care about the land, the culture & sharing the beauty with guests. We didn’t have a car, but used Ubers to get back & forth to La Fortuna, they are about 5-6 dollars a ride. La fortuna is very well priced with affordable grocery stores & places to eat & explore. Everything was made more magical with the animal friends that visited every day. We had two puppies & a grey and white tuxedo cat that is the sweetest friendly & chatty boy I fell in love with.

Amazing little gem right in the middle of nature. Home was just exactly as described and in the pictures. For an authentic stay in Costa Rica with an amazing view of nature, this home is the place to stay.

Excellent place and attention. Super recommended

Excelente lugar y atencion. Super recomendado

Thank you for the nice stay at your home.

Great stay! Great host! Can’t wait to go back. Thank you!

Very nice place, the pool was too comfortable, the water with a very nice temperature. We loved being able to walk along trails. The views are spectacular! We loved everything!

Un lugar muy agradable, la alberca estaba demasiado cómoda, el agua con temperatura muy agradable. Nos encantó poder caminar por senderos. Las vistas son espectaculares! Nos encantó todo!

Our stay at the Arenal Rainforest Cabin was a great spot for our time in La Fortuna! Check-in instructions and directions to the house were easy to follow. The views from the patio and pool were gorgeous!! We loved spending time outside in the pool and hammocks. Our hosts were fast to respond anytime we had questions. We were also perfectly located to the town of La Fortuna and all the activities we wanted to do there. We were secluded enough to feel like we stepped into a forest, but still just a quick drive into town! There also was AC inside the bedrooms which we weren’t expecting! The only two things are that the bathroom could’ve been a little cleaner. And on our last day, the cleaning people came early and the water shut off before our check out. Overall though, good value for the price!

Overall the cabin was very nice and private. The road to get to the cabins is a little hectic. It was mostly dirt roads and elevated to get to the cabin. The pool is a little deceiving from the pictures. It is small like the size of 2 hot tubs. It’s nice if you have small kids and it is right outside the doors. Our only complaint was the kitchen. We opted to do some cooking but, there wasn’t much cooking supplies. Things like cooking oil, paper towels, etc… Just be prepare to stop and grab those things. Other than that the place was great and very close to the main town but you have to drive to it it’s too far to walk. Also there is a restaurant further up the road that we didn’t know about and that was a short walk and looked great. Worth booking.

When we first got there the electricity was not working so I called and was told they’ll look into it and call back.  Called them back an hour later and they said they couldn’t help find somewhere else and to call Airbnb if we wanted to cancel.  The actual owner of the property is a super nice older couple but the management company for the property was unwilling to help us.  After speaking with the neighbor we found out the whole street lost power and the power company was working on it.  Thankfully the power came back that night.  A heads up about this before we arrived would have been helpful.  Otherwise the place was great.

This stay was absolutely stunning!! Using the address given, our maps almost took us off a cliff trying to get there, but with help from the property owner we found our way. The space was very clean with few bugs, however when we arrived our toilet wasn’t functioning properly. We had a few special visitors (two dogs) that hung out with us which we loved! The AC in the bedrooms were also a huge plus. We couldn’t find the private waterfall but there were plenty of awesome trails to explore! We felt very safe and the property was close to the main part of town. Would highly recommend this property!

Great place. We stay a few days but we like it very much. Well-equipped kitchen. We recommend!

Excelente lugar. Ficamos poucos dias mas gostamos muito. Cozinha bem equipada. Recomendamos!

Nice quiet spot, about 10 min drive from fortuna. Comfortable and private. There is a streetlight that shines into the window of one bedroom and sneaks between the curtain and wall, so maybe bring an eye mask if you are light sensitive (I am not).

Loved - this - place!! Not far outside of Fortuna, so was away from the city, but was easy to get into as desired. The deck and the pool were GREAT. AC units worked as advertised and you can freeze yourself out of the room with them if you are not careful. Open space inside was find for cooking some, using the refrigerator, kitchen table, etc. Location is secure behind a padlocked entrance. We loved it and might very well go right back to the same spot for future Fortuna adventures!

Great location, enjoyed the pool, the hammocks and the trail down to the waterfall. we saw parrots, toucans and other wildlife while sitting out in the hammocks.

We loved our stay here! The place is very private and makes you feel like you’re in the rainforest. We even saw tucans in the morning. It’s the best place to relax after some activities in and around la Fortuna! Plus, only a 5-10 minutes car ride to get to town! We can highly recommend this place and would always book again!

We were very pleased with our stay at the Arenal Rainforest Cabin. It was clean, beautiful views, and overall in a great location. Our host was very responsive and helpful when booking services or needing assistance. We loved our time in La Fortuna and would stay here again in a heartbeat.

If you want to be away from the noise and bustle of downtown La Fortuna, this is a wonderful place to stay, only a short drive to town. From the pool deck you can look out over the jungle and see Toucans and lots of other birds. The yard has a beautiful garden and the pool is refreshing on the hot days. There is also a beautiful jungle walk right beside the property. We found the locals warm and welcoming, including the sweet dogs that love to come and visit. We appreciated the air conditioning in the bedrooms. The kitchen is basic, but has what you need. There is also a BBQ to use. We would highly recommend staying here.

Beautiful home! Very peaceful and relaxing. As far as the “gaps under the doors” mentioned, that is just how homes in Costa Rica are. This home is not walkable to restaurants and activities, but perfect if you have a car.

Beautiful, large but cozy place perfect for our stay in La Fortuna. Great outdoorspace, pool, garden, and view from the porch! Will recommend it to anyone who wants a quiet, fun, and private place to spend while at La Fortuna.

The Cabin is pretty, the way to the bathroom it’s a little dangerous, there are a few stairs that are not so well illuminated there. The kitchen was complete, it’s far from restaurants. The last road to the cabin is very damaged, you are going to spend sometime driving in and out. We loved spending time with a dog and cat that came to say hi.

Great affordable option with great surroundings and beautiful pool.

Excellent place with a wonderful landscape.

Excelente lugar con un paisaje maravilloso.

Nice spot with a very private property. Just a few minutes from downtown La Fortuna. Was really able to relax and enjoy the thunderstorms and sun alike. Property had a nice bbq grill and private pool. Would recommend to anyone in the area. Thank you.

great location and price with beautiful scenery

This was an absolutely wonderful stay from the booking. The company helped with transportation to and from San Jose. I am a solo traveler so communication is very important to me. Everything was communicated easily and promptly. The property is more beautiful than pictures convey, the house is modest but functional with everything you may need. I really enjoyed my outside time listening and watching evening thunderstorms. I will be booking this house again for future visits.

A magical place, very private and beautiful a delicious climate and the pool JUST to sit and see the stars and enjoy the magic of the place I will ♥️✨ definitely come back

Un lugar mágico, muy privado y hermoso un clima delicioso y la piscina JUSTA para sentarse a ver las estrellas y disfrutar de la magia del lugar ♥️✨ definitivamente volveré

Nice cabin with a shallow pool for kids to play or relax. 8 minute drive to La Fortuna. Cabin located next to ravine where you can go walking. AC only in beds but can easily cool entire cabin.

Great stay at the edge of jungle. This house is away from the main area but very nice and secluded. Has a private hiking trail down to a creek. The hosts were very responsive and helped us when needed. Highly recommend this place if you want the jungle experience still close to town.

An amazing place, worth every penny! Absolutely surreal experience. Loved the pool and the beautiful scenery just within the property! A perfect location to access all that La fortuna has to offer while also experiencing some private space outside of town

Very quiet place, cozy, far from the center of the city, perfect for resting.

Lugar muy tranquilo, acogedor alejado del centro de la ciudad perfecto para descansar.

Really great vibe for the forest and truly feels like you are in nature. It is away from the city, not walkable but also very nice and calming! The place has everything need! Just know that you will have wildlife and insects around you! Hopefully they deep clean the bathrooms as well!

Great service & fast response. Beautiful view. We would definitely book here again

ideal for privacy and enjoying with family and friend

The pictures are spot on.  What you do not see is that there are large spaces between doors - door frames- and the floor so lots of bugs / animals of all kinds pop in and out.  The pool is nice but a little awkward depth.  The kitchen does not have hot water and limited pans.  The hammocks are great.  The property felt very secure with lockable gate and carport.  Over all good stay and easy to get to everything.  Hosts are very responsive and help you plan anything you need.  We had a great time.

Much nicer than on pictures. Beautiful place. Perfect Just good to know the bbq is charcoal. Missing wine glasses. Bed super confortables A/c works super well. Car protected in drive way locked

Quiet place and short walk to do under the garden,

Endroit calme et petite balade à faire sous le jardin,

Photos are accurate  It is ten minutes from Fortuna, in the middle of nature . A stray cat adopted us and we had it every day of visiting, my kids have really enjoyed. It's perfect for families.

Las fotos son fieles a la realidad.  Está a diez minutos de La Fortuna, en plena naturaleza . Un gato callejero nos adoptó y lo tuvimos cada día de visita, mis hijos han disfrutado mucho. Es perfecto para familias.

Extra terrace well located on the forest side,  we saw a sloth, toucans, parrots. The volcano is visible across the street. Beautiful stay in nature. The accommodation is a little old-fashioned for the price and the kitchen equipment (stoves, glasses) could be improved. The pool is nice, some boards to repair. Trucks of tourists and cars pass early on the street in front. Despite everything, a pleasant stay when you enjoy the outdoors.

Terrasse extra bien située côté forêt,  on a vu un paresseux, des toucans, des perroquets. Le volcan est visible en face. Beau séjour en nature. Le logement est un peu vieillot pour le prix et l'équipement de cuisine (poêlons, verres) pourrait être amélioré. La piscine est agréable, quelques planches à réparer. Des camions de touristes et des voitures passent tôt dans la rue devant. Malgré tout, un séjour agréable quand on profite de l'extérieur.

We loved everything about our stay. Pinta the dog made us feel at home. Daily Tucans, cool mini hike to the waterfall. 10 minute drive to lartuna. The pool and hammocks made it perfect for chilling. We also spent two days in La Fortuna but we loved the balance of both as they both offered such amazing unique experiences. This is the ultimate place to relax. Do the night hike and trust the recommended excursions. So good.

Beautiful home and property, very serene and peaceful. Just a few minutes from downtown la Fortuna. Very responsive hosts

Had many bugs, could hear noises from outside clearly, quite far from the city and a little hard to drive to

Amazing stay with beautiful views and a friendly little cat that we loved to chat with :) other reviews mention the bad roads - they’re definitely rough but we felt fine in our rental car going slow.

Very nice house, spacious interior and sumptuous exterior. Feeling immersed in a lush garden with a charming wooden pool and terrace. You can hear the surrounding nature very well! We have not been able to adjust the hot water, to elucidate…;)

Très agréable maison, intérieur spacieux et extérieur somptueux. Sensation d’être immergé au cœur d’un jardin luxuriant avec piscine et terrasse en bois charmante. On entend très bien la nature environnante ! Nous n’avons pas réussi à régler l’eau chaude, à élucider… ;)

Gorgeous home, with lush green, nature and wildlife surrounding you. A true escape into paradise. The town was only a quick 10 minute drive. A lot of restaurants less than 15 minutes away. All tours were 25 minutes or less away. We did the La Fortuna waterfall, Mistico Park, horseback riding around the Volcano and white water rafting. The house was peaceful and clean. The drive up to the house is all rocky dirt road, a little adventure! The walls are super thin in this 2 bedroom but it just made us all feel close. Highly recommend this over a hotel if you’re able to rent a car.

The pool was amazing! Such a nice spot to bird watch. Very peaceful!

This was a GEM of a spot.  The road up the mountain has seen better days...no low cars-pref 4x4.  Hands-down the most beautiful place we ever stayed with Airbnb.  EXACTLY as pictured.  Eder and Allen were super quick to respond and got us all set with excursions in La Fortuna.  Would FOR SURE stay here again!

Great place to stay! We really loved the private pool with the beautiful surroundings. We would definitely stay here again

Loved the location, nestled away from the main town but still pretty close to various activities. Cabin was pretty basic but had everything we needed: coffee and cooking items. Blankets were a little musty but I guess it’s a rainforest so not unexpected. Could hear some noise from the road at night but loved waking up to the sound of birds in the morning. Road leading up to the place was a bit rough but with a 4x4 it wasn’t a problem. Pool and hammocks were very nice to have, and we befriended the little cat that kept coming around. Hosts were responsive and helpful. Overall a lovely little stay in the La Fortuna area!

It was great! The pool is awesome and the location is quiet and in the nature. We saw many cool birds. There was also a little cat that visited us every day - she loves to meow but otherwise she is super cute - so please be nice to her! The house was also clean and cozy.
