Farmstay holiday rentals in Nicoya Peninsula

We ( family with 2 children , 6 & 3 years old) felt very comfortable on the Fidelito Ranche. The kids enjoyed playing in the garden, feeding and showering the dogs, as well as the great horseback riding trip with Leon. We really appreciated the quiet location, but were also able to get to the larger cities quickly.

We absolutely loved this place. It is well maintained and has everything you need. It feels like home. The woodwork in the house is so beautiful. The property is gorgeous and has trails to explore. Carolina and Manuel arranged to get some specially requested food for our stay. They had the food there for our arrival which was so helpful. Manuel took us on an awesome night hike. Carolina’s husband also gave us a tour of the property too. Carolina and her family really go out of their way to make this a welcoming place. They grow amazing coffee on the property which we really enjoyed. They also shared their garden veggies and the bananas. We stayed 4 days and wished we had stayed longer. We found it easy to go into Monteverde for activities like coffee tours, cloud forest, animal sanctuary el Tigre waterfall, etc. There are some great restaurants close by the house and of course in monteverde too. We enjoyed ordering homemade empanadas from cafe Horizonte for breakfast.

I made it to the Cottage right before dark. Hearing Howler Monkeys up above was amazing! The fan was on high and both ceiling fans going. Bed was very comfortable and welcoming. I had traveled all day and it was perfect! Loved the airiness of the room and the simplicity of the bathroom and kitchen. Plan to stay here again!

We stayed at David's place as a couple. It is a very private grounds with two separate houses. A car should definitely be available. The view through the glass facade or even from the balcony to the volcano is fascinating. The balcony is very inviting to enjoy a cool drink or make yoga - great backdrop! There are also restaurants in the area, where I would recommend driving to La Fortuna (about 20-30m in travel time). The communication with David was impeccable, quick and friendly. Possible activities for active people in an environment of about 60 km: Hanging Bridges, Cavernas de Venado, Rio Celeste, Mirador El Silencio.

A great place to stay for a couple. The place is immaculate, the pool and hot tub are great.

We have stayed at Casa Isabelita multiple times. It is always so peaceful. We hope to stay again.

We loved our stay in Monteverde! Beth & Manolo’s place is so cozy we felt relaxed and at home. The view from the porch is incredible. Beth was super helpful in helping us with directions proactively to find the house safely (as the drive from La Fortuna is an adventure). Zaida greeted us with warm banana bread (as Beth was traveling). Manolo was a great host. We enjoyed a tour through the magical cloud forest with him as well as a night walk through a local reserve. He helped us spot three resplendent quetzal as well as a mom & baby sloth (amongst numerous other treasures). Book this Airbnb if you want to feel comfortable, safe, & enjoy Monteverde!

This house has an amazing setting. Just out of town on a hill with views over the rain forest. There is a great pool with an undercover outdoor seating area and a wonderful garden to watch the wildlife in. We spent one night sat outside after all the birds had gone to bed and watched a storm with lightning for about 3 hours. Fantastic 😁

My partner and I had an amazing stay for our first trip to Costa Rica! The place was beautiful and serene, looked exactly as in photos, and quite convenient to a lot of attractions. Irene was also a responsive and very helpful host. We really enjoyed our stay!!

The listing photos of this home do no justice to the absolute stunning location. Clear views of the arenal volcano from the backyard. We will absolutely be back time and time again. Stunning!!!!

We really enjoyed our time in Monteverde. The location is exactly as pictured. The view of the mountains is incredible! And it is a very peaceful location, but only 15 minutes into town. Yamileth was helpful and met us when we arrived to ensure we knew which drive and how to locate the parking. I would recommend this location to anyone considering the Monteverde area.

I work remote and took my work to the mountains. I stayed at this hotel for a whole month. The mountains are beautiful and amazing to wake up to every morning. The sunrises and star gazing on this mountain was phenomenal. The fruitful trees that the monkeys have to climb daily was so inspiring to watch how God provides to all species. The sounds of the birds singing in the jungle was a great experience for my morning coffee. And last but not least the amazing staff here! I am blessed to have found this wonderful place to stay for a month! The food was amazing, and the service was excellent. Staff responded timely and very helpful. Great WiFi connectivity, electricity worked well, plenty of hot water. You will need a 4x4 vehicle or a taxi that provides it. Beaches are nearby and the culture was great to visit and explore. I see why this area specifically is the blue zone. Pura vida lives in this mountain top. Definitely recommend. Can’t wait to visit again. Glamping!!

Beautiful villa! Clean, modern, and had everything we needed. We did need to contact the host a couple of times and she was incredibly responsive and helpful. The location is perfect. Very close to the city of La Fortuna, nestled in farmland with an amazing view of the Volcano. Highly recommend!

We’ve stayed at some cool places over the years, but Casa Del Mono is one of my all-time favorites. It’s a perfect little getaway for anyone who wants to be close to nature but with all the comforts of home. It’s a very private property sitting way up the side of a mountain with a beautiful courtyard and hiking trails right out the front door. You simply cannot beat the view, and waking up to a chorus of birds like toucans, oropendolas, and tanagers was incredible (bring your binoculars)! The house itself is beautiful and well-equipped with everything you need. The kitchen is fully stocked, the bed is comfortable, and the shower/tub are gorgeous. It was everything we were hoping for in a Costa Rican stay, and I hope we get to visit again soon!

A PLACE PARADISE *****! We stayed 7 nights in the house and had a great time. A place full of peace and quiet. Beautiful, spotless, well equipped kitchen. Abanicos and A/C, an outdoor bathroom, from your bed every day at sunrise. No noise or carts. Simply spotless, one of my favorites by far! Don't hesitate to book!

Where to begin...a beautiful location outside of the thick tourist zone of La Fortuna. The views and surroundings were breathtaking. Only about a 10-minute drive into the center of La Fortuna with great dining options. The house was clean and the kitchen had everything we needed. Agustin was responsive and very friendly. Highly recommend this stay for you and your family! Would also be very private and romantic for a couple.

Pura vida at its max. Pure relaxation, comfort, safety. Zeidy’s food absolute perfection, the kids kept saying it wasn’t even real, calling it dream food. Pool is bigger than what the pictures show, beach wonderful, restaurant down the road a neat little touch for a dinner. We got horses and massages right at the house. The team is fantastic and Jose was wonderful to line it all up. Our private driver that Jose arranged was just wonderful and accommodating to any needs. We would give 10 stars if we could, just like other reviews. Stay here. Or don’t, which will clear up more space in the calendar for us to come back :) :)

Had a wonderful stay in Fortuna, comfortable stay, nice to have a kitchen, beautiful access to the lakes and river. Would recommend.

We had an amazing stay here! The location was easy to find and not too far from the airport. There were definitely lots of local stores and restaurants to visit near by. We recommend Resturante Ross! The views especially early morning were amazing overall we have no complaints. Our favorite part was visiting the farm animals! Oscar was so nice and welcoming.

This place is a Zen retreat! We had the whole place to ourselves and had a great time waking up to the views of the mountains and enjoying the vastness of the property. Very well curated property. We celebrated 3 birthdays here and had the best time. Great for retreats and family gatherings with celebration. Beautiful 😍

There aren’t words for how magical Olingo is. The previous reviews regarding birding are accurate. The montezuma nests are really cool. The trails lead straight into the actual forest where there is one particularly large ficus. Everything in the home itself seems practically new. W/D work very well and you have every other amenity you could need, including local, eco-friendly toiletries. The beds were very comfortable and linens pristine white. In the evenings, rooms were comfortable with only the ceiling fan, but standing fans are provided as well. Evening temperatures were in the low 60s or below. Road is rough, but wouldn’t require 4WD. We honestly can’t wait to get back again and bring family to stay in the other units.

The best place I could choose to celebrate my husband's 30th birthday! Many thanks to Jean Carlo and Hilda for all the help!

Our family came for the first time to Costa Rica and we are super thankful for the hospitality that Mauricio and his family had towards us. Every afternoon his mother came by and drop us some hand made bread. Her dad was always super friendly with our kids and provide us with the opportunity to feed the animals and shared some fresh eggs. Hospitality from this host has been nothing but exceptional!! Hope to see you again !

We enjoyed Caroline's Pool Villa to the utmost. The peaceful and private environment surpassed our expectations. The house had all the things you need to have a comfortable, if not luxurious stay. Going to the shops and beaches of Tamarindo takes only a short drive, but we opted to spent most of our time in and around the house and the fantastic pool. Both of us have an inkling that we must come back one day :-) Peter & Jimma
