GoldenView+A/C+Jacuzzi+private and exclusive
Andrea was an exceptional host, very helpful and responsive. The place was more beautiful than the photos and the attention to detail inside was very nice. I highly recommend a stay here for a very peaceful, restful, and for the amazing views and experience.

Quinta Las 5 Marías
Excellent place to go to share with friends! :) very nice and comfortable

Casa Mai
Honestly the best AIRBNB I've ever stayed at. It was incredible. The morning view over the pool to the comfortable amenities in the house... everything was perfect. The pictures don't do this home justice. Although it's a little secluded from the big city, I personally enjoyed the privacy of it. It's about 45 mins from this place to La Fortuna. Carlos was very responsive and helpful through the whole process. I'll definitely have this spot pinned for the future.

Linda Vista Green Soul, near Monteverde
staying at Green Soul was a gift! the house was immaculate and very comfortable with our baby. the property was gorgeous. we highly recommend a night walk with Manu and going for a swim in the very refreshing pool. we spent a lot of time sitting on the porch and watching the abundant wildlife around us. highly recommend and cannot wait to return!

CASA LAS PAVAS DEL VOLCAN
We stayed at Juan's recently and were very happy! The unit itself is gorgeous with everything meeting our needs, and the host was very responsive, helpful and made the check-in and check-out process very straightforward with clear instructions. I would definitely recommend this unit and would stay here again!

Villa Ilán Ilán, La Finca, Horse Ranch, La Fortuna
La Finca Lodge is a true gem, exceeding expectations with an unparalleled experience. From arrival, we felt like cherished family. Magical ATV tours through sugarcane fields to rejuvenating mineral springs, and serene horseback rides exploring the stunning landscape, were incredible. Culinary delights were 'gastro-tacular,' farm-to-table feasts showcasing local abundance. The lodge's authentic focus shone in every detail. Even early mornings were special, witnessing farm life, feeding animals, and tending greenhouses. Leaving was hard, a testament to the profound connection and exceptional hospitality. This isn't just a stay; it's an immersive experience, an invitation to the region’s heart. We left eager to return, immersed in its magic. Without doubt, one of our finest stays, wholeheartedly recommended for an unforgettable retreat. Thank you to Esteban, the family and staff who made us feel at home. We look forward to visiting again, soon. :)

Casa Nya - your home in nature
It matches the description, the house has all the conveniences to enjoy as a family. We traveled with a baby and pets and did not have any problems.

Rural property, jacuzzi and balcony overlooking the volcano
Absolutely loved our stay! The property is stunning, with beautifully maintained grounds and breathtaking views of the volcano. Very private - no one else nearby. Our kids couldn’t get enough of the pool and jacuzzi—it was the perfect place to relax. The location is great too, just a quick and easy 15-minute drive into downtown. Kenneth was an exceptional host—super responsive and thoughtful, even leaving fresh coconuts in the fridge for us. We would definitely stay here again!

Tico Breezes-Cottage, pool & gorgeous lake view
Neal and Diane were very helpful. we had some issues with the car, contacting folks back home. They gave us some good tips. I had an issue with my knee and they gave me the number to a physical therapist in the area. Claudia was great, I was experiencing no pain by the time I left. The pool was a good place to watch storms move in and out from. The birds and other ani.als made it wonderful to look at. There property is just so beautiful. Tronodora is small but has all the things in a short walk for a long stay or a short stay. We had a car but on most days we simply walked into town. We fid hang out with there two dogs, Franny and Albert. They were cute, loving, creatures.

Amazing view and very quiet place!

Quinta La 16 DE Enero - Nature, Peace and Harmony
very peaceful place with a great pool

Arboleda´s House by the River, Forest and Gardens
Once you find the place it’s easy to get to it again. Since addresses are a bit not a thing here it is frustrating but the host was helpful and make sure you use Waze

3 Mins to La Fortuna, Arenal home + Volcano Views
The accommodation is absolutely amazing. All the activities are very close, the accommodation is super well maintained and beautiful and the host is involved. I recommend it 100% for the very affordable price.

Cabin in Lake Arenal: 2 floors, 9 people & VIEWS.
Excellent location and views! Ronald and Christopher were more than welcoming and even provided different excursions. We highly recommend this place!

Casa Pauli
This place was very nice, clean, and spacious for our family of five. It had the most beautiful view any of us had ever seen which was one of the highlights of our trip. The property is very nice and private with a great pool area. The hosts were extremely nice and helpful whenever we needed anything. Highly recommend!

This place is absolutely fabulous as the view of the Arenal Volcano are amazing. The house is very well situated to take advantage of the view and the grounds are well kept. enjoyed our time there and definitely recommend for anyone needing a relaxing peaceful place to stay with the best view in Costa Rica

Finca las Hortensias
House is on a dairy farm, cozy and comfortable. Kitchen is equipped with everything you need for cooking, thank you very much. You do need to buy your food before you go since it is a little remote. There is someone working in the middle of the night next to the house and that might bother you if you are a light sleeper. One of the bathroom does not have hot water at the time and it seems common that kitchen does not have hot water. We are ok since there is another bathroom has warm enough water for shower.

Tropical Villa La Fortuna
Everything was perfect! The location is excellent, entrance to the house was simple, the directions were super clear and the privacy of the house is one of its main qualities. Super important to comment that any type of vehicle can be entered. We lasted approximately 9 minutes from the house to the nearest supermarket. Attention and communication with Home Vacations was perfect! Super attentive to your needs. Great for families with children or babies because the house is fully equipped.

Nova House | Pool, 2 Bedrooms, 2 Bathrooms
We loved our stay at this Airbnb. The space is spacious, quiet and safe, ideal to rest and enjoy nature. Everything was very nice and tidy which made our experience even more enjoyable. A minor detail was that the TV didn't work, but with so much for enjoying the outdoors, it really wasn't necessary. Also, the kindness of Doña Gloria made us feel welcome at all times. Definitely a place to stay again!

Mystic Waters Retreat
Wonderful home….. beautiful grounds. If you are booking transportation I would only accept Adrian as your driver, he is awesome.

La Vega Cabin: Rest and Nature
The place is beautiful, the house has everything you need to stay. We arrived and everything was clean, the pool is covered so you don't feel the sun so directly. It is a very quiet neighborhood, it has a bar restaurant and a supermarket nearby. We would definitely go back

Campo Azul II - Monteverde.
There is so much to say about Emanuel’s place! First of all it was in a gorgeous area. Please know 4x4 is highly recommended! The house had everything we needed. Emanuel’s mom was there to greet us and to show us the property and show some amazing hospitality! If you want the real experience stay here! We are already in the process of planning our next stay with Emanuel!

Family home overlooking Arenal Volcano, Fortuna
It's the second time we've stayed, everything's super clean and a beautiful location. Great to go with family or friends

Casa de Pura Vida, La Fortuna
I stayed for 8 days at Patricks Airbnb. The place is so beautiful. I loved his little private area. La Fortuna was about 25-30 min drive with my car rental. The property was gorgeous. The area is near a lot wildlife and insects. But because of the area that you are traveling to always expect a little insect friends to be around. The Airbnb was decently clean. The rooms have great ac unit. Beds were comfortable. And one of my favorite parts of this Airbnb is the two dogs that visited us daily. They actually were like little security guards. So lovable and friendly. The pool was clean and perfect temperature. It’s nice going back to a colder pool after being in the hot springs all day. Patrick was very responsive and extremely helpful. He also offered us the fruits that he grows, just so welcoming. I would return to this Airbnb. 10/10 Thank you again Patrick for your hospitality
