We can't wait to return!

Staying at La Fortuna, Costa Rica was an absolute delight! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm hospitality and a stunning view of the Arenal Volcano right from our doorstep. The accommodations were impeccably clean, cozy, and beautifully decorated, providing the perfect blend of comfort and style. The hosts went above and beyond to ensure our stay was memorable, offering invaluable local tips for exploring the area and arranging unforgettable excursions. We especially loved lounging in the hammocks on the terrace, surrounded by lush tropical gardens and the soothing sounds of nature. Whether you're seeking adventure or relaxation, this place in La Fortuna is a hidden gem that truly captures the essence of pura vida living. We can't wait to return!

La Fortuna

The property was clean but there was a sewer gas odor in the master bath. We had ages 2 thru 85 in our group. We used every inch of both villas. The location was close to things we wanted to do. Unfortunately the most direct route had the road and it took a while to find after getting to the area. The kitchens are small with no dishwasher. We typically cook most of our meals but ate out more than usually because of the lack of room and pans for larger groups. The pool was nice but went down about 6 inches over the 5 days we were there. Overall, the property accommodated our needs. We really enjoyed exploring the Arenal activities.

Excelente y hermoso lugar

La propiedad es tal como se ve en las fotos, nos parecio perfecta para nuestro grupo, las camas son muy comodas, el lugar hermoso. La entrada esta un poco dificil de conseguir, la direccion proporcionada por el GPS nos lleva a la parte de atras de la casa por una calle sin salida, como yo no tenia internet se me hizo dificil contactar al encargado, luego de un buen rato miramos por un camino pequeño y nos percatamos que allí estaba la entreda de la propiedad. Sugiero indicaciones con nombres de lugares cercano para dejarse llevar. Por lo demás recomiendo el lugar

Relaxation & Chill, Just what we needed!

Property was located in a nice secluded neighborhood. Town of La Fortuna close by via 7-15 minute cab ride. Town was quaint, lovely shops, grocery & butcher. The best was the pool & hammock which I enjoyed tremendously! Owners & property manager very receptive & attended to all our immediate needs. Will definitely post my good time on social media.

About the host

Hosted by Francisco Vicenty

My wife and I are originally from Puerto Rico but have lived our lives along the North East Coast of the United States. While we enjoy the seasons, it is always nice to have an escape from the cold and the city life.

With our children grown, we began looking for a place with warmer weather where we could unwind and reset. We came to Costa Rica because of its reputation and recommendations from relatives who had already experienced the beauty and hospitality of Costa Rica.

On the very first trip we were captivated by the country, the people, and the culture. Especially the beautiful area around the Arenal Volcano. We decided then and there to invest in our bit of the Pura Vida!

Here we can come to break away and relax. On the days we feel adventurous, we can go explore the mountains, rivers, and rain forest or on the lazy days, relax by the pool, go to one of the many thermal springs, or treat ourselves to a spa day. Everything is just a short drive or taxi ride away.

Since we cannot be here all year, we want to open up our homes for others to come and be able to experience this enchanting place.

We hope you enjoy your stay in with us!

Relax. Reset. Explore. Pura Vida!

Why they chose this property

This is as close to perfection on Earth that we could find. La Fortuna is located in the mountainous area of the Arenal Volcano. It has rivers and a lake and the average temperature hovers around 70 to 80 degrees Fahrenheit (21 to 26 degrees Celsius) most of the year, which makes it a unique spot to connect with nature and explore more than 200 ecotourism activities. It also has a wide-variety of restaurants in the center of town, which is only a few minutes away from the property.

If this not enough, Costa Rica is a stable and safe country that welcomes tourists from all over the world. The people are very friendly and make you feel at home right away. In my opinion, their commitment to their residents quality of life and resource and nature conservation are their best attributes.
