The communication with the host was better than any place I’ve ever stayed. As a guest I had made a couple of mistakes in our booking, and Eder/Alan was more than accommodating, he made things happen for us last minute, and I will be forever, grateful for the communication and the knowledge and follow through. I would absolutely book with house of tours again. Thank you for a wonderful stay for our first time in Costa Rica. ##### Katie R. Stayed 5 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mark Y.

Perfect location just outside of the hustle and bustle of town but within 2-3 driving distance to go over for a quick meal or coffee. Beds were so comfortable and each room has its own air conditioning, although the common areas were without air we were still very comfortable. Check in was a breeze and the host graciously waited for us after our flight was delayed and we showed up after hours. My favorite part was the hammocks hanging on the porch with a gorgeous view of the mountain. Totally recommend! ##### Jayla F. Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michele W.

We adored the outside living area, and the views were spectacular! We totally appreciated the basket of pool towels. The location of the house was great, because every activity we did was 30 min or less away! Although we were only a mile from downtown, you definitely needed to drive there at night. Walking wasn’t really an option. ##### Michele W. Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Steven G. Jul 27, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful and spacious property with Volcano views The views of the Volcano from your patio and pool were amazing. Plenty of sleeping space and having 4 full bathrooms was great. The beds were comfortable and the house was very clean. It would be great to have a dishwasher and air conditioning in the family room and kitchen but you are in a rainforest. Eder and the entire crew were very responsive and helpful. The very close walking distance to the El Salto rope swing was a big hit with my teenage sons. We didn't rent a car while in La Fortuna but it might be helpful to get groceries and get to the local restaurants. Overall, a fantastic stay! ##### Steven G.

Not over the top fancy but comfortable. Plenty of beds and bathrooms for large groups. Would have liked some additional seating in the living room but the outdoor seating made up for it. Kids really enjoyed the pool with a great view of the volcano right out front. At one point during our stay the washer broke and the host arranged for the cleaning lady to do our laundry for us which she graciously did. They also helped book a tour for us to the Baldi Hot Springs and saved us quite a bit of money. Be sure to also have breakfast with Guiselle next door. Wonderful authentic Costa Rica. Experience. ##### Kaleena W. Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jean B. Apr 1, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great house in LaFortuna Our family group of 10 had a wonderful stay at this modern LaFortuna home. The property is only a few minutes from town, and the house and property were very clean. Each bedroom had an attached bath and air conditioning. The beds were comfortable. We loved relaxing in the pool with the amazing volcano view. There is another house on the gated property but there are trees in between so it still feels private. There are adequate supplies for cooking. We ran out of LP gas one evening when we were going to use the flat top grill and we contacted management who had someone come with a replacement cylinder in less than an hour. A couple of minor issues- the washing machine wouldn’t spin the clothes dry and the safe handle seemed to be broken. (Just adding this for future renters reference, because these were really not a big deal for us) We loved this house and would definitely recommend to others. ##### Jean B.

We were making this trip "on our own" and their help with resources and speedy responses was just the best! Thanks especially to Mario. The property was just as described. We loved it. Spectacular view. Well equipped kitchen. Ample parking. Felt very safe. Lovely decor and linens. Thanks for all the great beach towels. Very detailed and helpful information about the house and area. Clear directions on getting there from the airport, plus restaurant recommendations along the way. We ate at Restaurant Mi Rancho both coming and going!
