Jul 27, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Absolutely beautiful property. Close enough to the small take of El Tanque to walk over to the grocery/fruit/meat markets, but large enough and secluded enough to feel like you're truly in the jungle. Staff was always ready to help, especially the gardener who was very friendly. Highly recommend you take him up on his small "tour" of the property (some small amount of Spanish fluency will be helpful here). Saw tons of birds, lizards, etc on the property. Pool and hot tub were delightful after a full day of activities in the surrounding areas.Overall we had a great stay and loved the property. Highly recomend. ##### David H.

Rooms were comfortable, house was giant and plenty of room to spread out! Jordy was SO helpful for the weeks passing up to our trip. His excursion recommendations were perfect and we were thankful to have a local person arranging the transportation and the tours so that we didn't have to. There's a few restaurants, local shops and grocery within walking distance. Everyone we meet were so nice. If we ever get to come back to Vista Rica we will DEFINITELY come back here!!

The back veranda was a wonderful place to gather for meals, and the cool ACs in the bedrooms worked great. A short drive to all kinds of La Fortuna activities, and within walking distance to fresh fruit, groceries, restaurant. An amazing place to stay while in Costa Rica! ##### Michael S.

Very convenient location, near a grocery store and not too far from all that La Fortuna has to offer. The staff is responsive, helpful and flexible.

It was centrally located to most activities which we greatly appreciated (15 min drive to La Fortuna town, Arenal volcano, Tabacon hot springs and Sky Trek Ziplining). The home (including all beds) was very comfortable with a great layout. Simply beautiful property and grounds. The pool with waterfall and jacuzzi was also a nice treat, although we had trouble with the pool filter which was not operating when we arrived. Other than that, we had a fantastic stay and highly recommend this home. The fresh coconuts cut down by Jorge on our last day was a very nice gesture and he was very helpful throughout our stay. ##### Susan L. Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nancy S. Apr 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Loved By All Our family of 13, ages 73 to 5, stayed for 7 days at this property. The moment we stepped into this villa we felt "on vacation". It has its own personality seeped in history not a bland cookie cutter house. The outstanding landscaping made you feel you were in a remote area yet you are actually within walking distance of necessities and only a few minutes from La Fortuna. The grounds were planted to attract local wildlife and we were always entertained by these visitors. Jaquin gave us an educated farm tour (he is the diamond at this villa) of the crops, answered any questions that we had and went out of his way to be helpful. One suggestion would involve the many light switches throughout this large home and grounds. After a week we still had not figured out where some were located. Labeling them or a detailed diagram in the house manual would be very helpful. The extra bedroom on the main floor is perfect as a handicap room. It has sliding door to bathroom and walk in shower with shower chair. Our family has been home a few days and we miss it already. ##### Nancy S.

Aug 23, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful property grounds The property was absolutely beautiful. Exactly what we wanted. The garden, the hammock, pool and jacuzi were so amazing. Definitely soak in the pool and jacuzi if you come in. The garden view is absolutely amazing. The downstairs bedroom/in law suite was newly renovated so it was perfect. Upstairs could use lots of upgrades/improvements but we expected this. There were a few times we kept finding strange black dots on our beds even with the mosquito net closed and the stair rails had strange shredded wood deposits that need to be looked at. Besides these minor issues in a old home, the propert manager Jorge was always responsive, Joaquin the garden keeper was always making sure the garden is great, the pool is clean and his tour of the farm was so great. Lots of fresh fruits and coconuts to sample and taste. It was nice to stay on a property with a working farm. Make sure you have good hiking shoes for your trips. Yadira was always on time. We had asked her to have breakfast ready by 7:30am everyday since the kids are always ready to eat and we wanted the option to sleep in while they had food. It worked out great. Fresh delicious homemade breakfast everyday. We also asked her to make dinner 3 of the nights. She made us chicken with rice and meat one day and empanadas (which we ate throughout the week for snacks), chicken soup the next day. This was one of my favorites. Last day was grilled casada for everyone. Definitely enjoy some meals from her and maybe even learn. ##### Jeevitha R. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Patti M.
