We really enjoyed our stay! The villa was clean, spacious, and felt very safe and comfortable. The hosts welcomed us with fresh fruit, which was such a sweet and thoughtful touch. We also really enjoyed having our own pool. The house was well stocked with everything we needed, including pots and pans, basic seasonings, and even an umbrella and ponchos, which definitely came in handy in Costa Rica! Unfortunately, the hot tub wasn’t heating properly during our stay, which was disappointing because we were looking forward to using it. However, the hosts were very responsive and sent someone out to work on it. When it became clear that it wouldn’t be repaired before the end of our stay, they refunded us for one night, which we really appreciated. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and appreciated the hospitality, responsiveness, and thoughtful extras. We would definitely recommend this villa to others visiting the La Fortuna area!

We really enjoyed our stay in La Fortuna! The villa was clean, comfortable, and looked just like the pictures. The location was peaceful and perfect for relaxing while still being close enough to everything we wanted to do. The jacuzzi was definitely a nice touch, and the host was very helpful and communicated with us throughout our stay. Check-in and checkout were easy as well. We had a great experience and would definitely stay here again next time we’re in La Fortuna. Highly recommend!

The Airbnb was perfect and clean ! Full of amenities and the host was super responsive as well. Additionally, when we needed help finding a different route during La Fortuna’s rainy season Diego gave clear instructions so we were able to arrive to the airport on time. We appreciate it and will be back in the future. 🏝️
