Casa Jardín|6 PPL| Private Pool | Forest Views
Amazing property. Felt more like staying at a high end resort. Extremely clean with great outdoor space and pool. Well stocked and safe with a gated entrance. Highly recommend.

Venado Valley Villa Costa Rica
If you’re the kind of person who wants to be near all the hustle and bustle with restaurants and attractions within close driving distance, move on. But if you enjoy peaceful tranquility, being immersed in nature and farm life, and feeling like you’re with the family you never knew you had, then look no further than Venado Valley Ranch. Farm to table breakfasts and dinners cooked and served by the best host families were delicious. If you’re up for an adventure, please don’t miss the waterfall hike! The kids (and adults) had a great time jumping off the rocks and tree into the pool at the base of the falls. And definitely have a taste of refreshing sugar cane juice fresh from the press. For excursions within an hour drive time, we enjoyed the hot springs, tubing down River Celeste, and—if you’re adventurous and don’t mind getting wet and dirty, the Venado Caves were a lot of fun! I could say so much more about our stay, but I’m running out of characters. We highly recommend!

Birdwatchers Ranch Villa *NEW
Incroyable séjour, une vue à couper le souffle, petite villa paisible au milieu d’un ranch magnifique, possibilité de faire du bateau (la capitaine nous a déposé déjeuner dans un excellent restaurant),du cheval et en bonus un très bon massage en fin de séjour ! Cet endroit est paradisiaque ! Je recommande vivement l’expérience !

Majestic Lake & Volcano Views 2 King Suites!
Thank you for the fantastic stay! Tanyia and Rod are amazing hosts. We appreciated the communication and flexibility when booking and leaving. Great recommendations, can’t wait to try some of them when we return. The place is tidy and spotless. Loved the flowers and it’s very well stocked - has everything you need. Great A/C and the showers were so refreshing. The view from the living room is so beautiful of the lake. Our girls loved having their own private area with the king bed. The neighborhood is so peaceful and beautiful- perfect place for a stroll by fields with horses. As with so many places in Costa Rica, there are some steep dirt road inclines on the way - we had no trouble in our 4 wheel drive. This place offers clean, peaceful solitude to listen to the sounds of the Costa Rica jungle tucked away on the south side of Lake Arenal. We only spent evenings there so we didn’t go to the clubhouse.

Villa Vista Rosa
Gracias Daniel. Nuestra visita a tu alojamiento fue muy especial. Las vistas, la casa es cómoda y espaciosa, perfecta para grupos. Cocina equipada, area externa y vistas al lago y al volcán.

Pie in the Sky 1. Romantic Cottage w/ Pool access
It truly is a little slice of heaven! Pictures don’t come close to doing it justice! We stayed 3 nights. It was easy to get to and close to the La Fortuna area. We can’t recommend pie in the sky enough! From check in to checkout it was wonderful!

Villa Paz Bajo el Ceiba Arenal
Cozy home, just as described. Comfortable beds Great location for our family of 6 to do all the activities in and around La Fortuna. When we weren’t out exploring, our kids were in the pool, which was so enjoyable. There was a mixup when we first got there with another family who mistakenly was in our place. But it was quickly resolved and we were left a fruit basket the next day.

Villa Famary
The other reviews are correct. This place is even more beautiful in person. We did not the amount of space, how clean it was, and how luxurious it felt. It was like being in a resort. Even the way its designed was gorgeous. It was 4 adults and 2 kids and we all loved it. The kids especially loved the pool and how low it was and we loved the convenience of the market directly across the street. Also everything is a short taxi ride away. And to top it off, the one day pass at Las Logas Resort was awesome. We spent hours there walking the grounds and enjoying the hotsprings pools!! This is definitely one of the best airbnbs we've stayed at offering so many amenities withing close proximity to downtown and other attractions. Also the host Rebecca was very responsive! Be careful to follow the instructions when checking in because you will be lost. Thanks again Rebecca!

Balcón Arenal Villa 02
Brandon’s place is absolutely amazing. The house is beautiful and the view is stunning. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking to stay near La Fortuna!

Close to Monteverde with huge ocean view
While many other reviews mentioned it, I’ll have to note here again: the view is amazing. I enjoy taking so many photos through out our trip as the view is spectacular and it chnages quickly at different times, different weather. The weather has been kind to us so it only rained very hard mostly at night and few hours in the afternoon (mid June). Sitting out on the deck in the morning is peaceful and not too cold. All of the descriptions are accurate. The road coming here is rough but so is almost everywhere else in Monteverde. Definitely one of the best Airbnb places we’ve been.

Star House Monteverde.
Had a great stay at The Star House. Beautiful sunsets and rainbows. My kids loved watching the leaf cutter ants out in the yard. Also loved watching the hummingbirds and even a toucan from the swinging bucket seats with a cool gentle breeze. Very peaceful and relaxing. Comfortable beds and plenty of hot water from the solar powered water heater. Kitchen well-equipped, including coffee. Would definitely stay here again!

Incredible Volcano & Lake View’s Beauty Abounds
This place is incredibly beautiful. It's quite safe, very peaceful, every corner of the house is clean, and the view is incredible. It's just important to note that the third bedroom isn't completely independent, as it's not separated from the second bedroom by a wall or door. However, it's a house that has absolutely everything you need, and the service from both the host and the assistant, Noel, is exceptional. We will definitely be back.

Villa Encanto Verde (Monteverde)
If you are looking to get away and find peace, this is your place. It is a stunning home with a view for days. The drive is challenging, but so worth the effort. Be sure to pick up everything you need before you head up because it's a trek to town. El Tigre Waterfalls is a must and you can't go wrong with any of the ziplines. Put this on your list!

Casa Vista Arenal
This cute little place was perfect for the two of us. Having the AC in the bedroom was so nice and made for a good nights sleep. We enjoyed sitting on the back patio and watching and listening to all of the birds and watching the cows who are right next door. Fortuna Waterfalls is close by and it’s a quick trip into town. We would stay here again.

Villa Luxury - Volcano view and private pool
We had an incredible stay in La Fortuna with our family, including our 3-year-old and 1-year-old. The home is perfectly situated right at the base of the volcano, offering unobstructed, stunning views—we could see Arenal from the living room and even while relaxing outside. The host was extremely thoughtful, leaving cold beers and champagne in the fridge for us, which was such a warm welcome after a long drive. Communication was excellent, and the concierge-style service made it easy to plan activities that worked for both adults and young kids. The space felt peaceful, safe, and well-equipped for a family. We’d absolutely recommend this place to anyone visiting the area—especially families looking for comfort, scenery, and great hospitality.

Crystal Gardens | La Fortuna
Carlos’ house was, without exaggeration, the best Airbnb I have ever stayed at. If you’re headed to LaFortuna, this is where you should stay. The house was immaculately clean, the location is very private, the pool was awesome, and you can’t beat waking up to the views of Arenal volcano. A short drive to all the restaurants, shops, and grocery stores downtown. Very close to all the tours and hot springs we booked. Do yourself a favor and book this house.

Beautiful Villa in Paradise with Jacuzzi & Pool
Such a great stay! Warren and Andy took good care of us with excellent local recommendations and reservations. The pool is awesome. soths and lots of birds on the property.

Casa Aqua Vida: Natural Spring Lake, Volcano Views
Aqua Vida is simply amazing. Words cannot describe how you’ll feel when you see everything you get with this property. It’s off the main road in La Fortuna but it’s very safe and peaceful. You get all the privacy you want while being 5 minutes away from everything in town. A huge natural spring pool, a covered area where you can cook, have your meals or just hangout, a huge yard to play in, a stream going through the property with beautiful trees and absolutely stunning landscaping. All this and you’re still not even in the house. Book this place. You’ll be happy you did.

Casa Yvyra'i
We had an unforgettable stay at Jessy’s beautiful home in Monteverde. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the breathtaking views and the peaceful, natural setting. The floor-to-ceiling windows made us feel completely immersed in the cloud forest—it was like waking up in the middle of a dream. Jessy was an exceptional host—kind, thoughtful, and welcoming. She even left us a sweet note and some local treats to sample, which was such a lovely touch. The home itself was spotless, the beds were incredibly comfortable, and the jacuzzi was the perfect way to unwind after a long day of hiking and exploring. If you’re looking for a quiet, secluded getaway where you can truly connect with nature, this is the place. We can’t recommend it enough and hope to return someday!

Casita Oropéndola
Una experiencia increíble Me hospedé aquí y fue, sin duda, una excelente elección. Desde el primer momento, el lugar superó mis expectativas: limpio, cómodo y con una atención impecable. La ubicación es perfecta para descansar y disfrutar del entorno. Cada detalle está bien cuidado, lo que demuestra el compromiso con la calidad y la hospitalidad. ¡Definitivamente volvería!
