Stay at ceiba pond

This was an amazing stay at a lovely property. Everything was clean and the beds were very comfortable. The gardens were full of wildlife, including a caiman living in the pond! We saw coati, otters, and heard howler monkeys every morning. The pool was also much needed after a days hiking

Fun place for a family

We really enjoyed this space. We had a lot of fun exploring property and seeing all kinds of birds, lizards, frogs, plants, etc. The pool was very clean and perfect for us. The location was ideal for all the activities you can do in the Arenal/La Fortuna area. Host suggested some good sodas that we enjoyed.

Birdwatchers’ Paradise

Absolutely fantastic few days here! The property is amazing. Exceptionally clean, well equipped and on a beautiful plot with loads of wildlife. Carlos met us at the property at check in and told us everything we needed to know, including a good soda recommendation! 20 min drive to Mirador Silencio for great walks around the volcano. 30 minutes from Sky Adventures for zip lining and more wildlife. All in all fantastic stay!

Perfect Place

We loved everything about this property. It was a perfect place to relax in the afternoons and watch all the various wildlife around the property. The property managers are very responsive. Note: SET THE ALARM SYSTEM every time you leave (no matter where you stay in CR). We hope to stay again someday.

A little slice of paradise in the jungle

The pictures do not do this place justice. If you like hearing howler monkeys at dawn and seeing birds and lizards and frogs in your backyard then this is the place for you. Our kids love to swim and explore and this place couldn't have been better for that. There was more than enough room for our family of 6, the host was very friendly and excellent with communication and it was easy to find. It was 10 minutes into the heart of La Fortuna and very easy to get to everywhere we wanted to go. Highly recommend, we would definitely stay again!

Jungle house

Great stay at a very traditional Costa Rican property. House is on beautiful acreage and we saw toucans and other amazing birds, iguanas, and an alligator. The main part of the house can get kind of warm but it’s nice the bedrooms are air conditioned. We had a good time!

Perfect Family Stay

We loved the house and the property! The only glitch we had was the Google link we were sent said the property was on the right and we hunted and hunted to find it. The agent wasn't there to let us in, so it took some time for me to find the actual property and then wait to be let in the gate. Other than that the house was great. Beautiful scenery and outside area. There was a mention of a crocodile on the property in one of the ponds which made me a smidge nervous. I never laid eyes on it, but I didn't allow the kids to use the pool once it got dark as I wanted to keep a close eye out. Everything was very clean in the house and nicely put together. This suited our needs perfectly. We headed about 12-15 minutes out from the house for meals and excursion meeting points.
