Very clean and a good location. Only small issue was the very firm beds. Some of the group prefer a softer mattress. I highly recommend the villa ##### Ken Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Jacob A Dec 21, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Property is in a great location. Very clean. Only two complaints we had were the walls are very thin so you can hear everything going on in other rooms, and the beds are extremely, extremely firm. Uncomfortably firm most times. Other than that the property is great. ##### Jacob A Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Charles May 9, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication #### Lovely property in La Fortuna This home was exactly what we needed, close to downtown La Fortuna yet away from the noise. The house has 2 bedrooms with doble beds and TV’s and one loft with 2 twin beds. The bathroom has hot/cold water and the host provides shampoo, conditioner and shower gel. The kitchen has a full size refrigerator, a cooktop as well as the basics you need to make meals if you choose to cook. The washer and dryer were very convenient. Towels and bed linens are nice, beds comfortable, cozy living area with TV and lovely patio with greenery all around where you get to see wildlife as well. It felt very private yet very close to everything, about 5 minute drive to restaurants and stores. The host was very responsive and self check in a breeze. Internet worked great. We highly recommend Villa Escondida. ![Bedroom with outdoor access. ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/e02b06da-56a0-4370-8086-2f29f6dba114-1746817005784.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c06c22ce-f28a-42da-9a2a-75e56c9b9801-1746817006151.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Living and kitchen/eating area ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f5da7096-ae9c-471c-96f2-2b314bfa553e-1746817004821.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Villa Escondida ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/d11c86f6-e0c4-4d68-b2a1-a0ff2e929c29-1746817007678.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Charles Stayed 9 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Giuliano Mar 4, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication ##### Giuliano Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Montaña de fuego Mountain Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/La-Fortuna-Hotels-Montana-De-Fuego.h1309587.Hotel-Information) > > [Volcano Lodge Hotel & Thermal Experience](https://www.expedia.ca/La-Fortuna-Hotels-Volcano-Lodge-Hotel-Thermal-Experience.h2133936.Hotel-Information) > > [Hideaway Rio Celeste](https://www.expedia.ca/Katira-Hotels-Hotel-Rio-Celeste-Hideaway.h3858533.Hotel-Information) > > [Blue River Resort & Hot Springs](https://www.expedia.ca/Guayabo-Hotels-Blue-River-Resort-Hot-Springs.h3969358.Hotel-Information) > > [El Silencio Lodge and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Toro-Amarillo-Hotels-El-Silencio-Lodge-And-Spa.h3940524.Hotel-Information) > > [The Retreat Costa Rica - Wellness Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Atenas-Hotels-The-Retreat-Costa-Rica-Wellness-Resort-Spa.h10447279.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Kokoro Mineral Hot Springs](https://www.expedia.ca/La-Fortuna-Hotels-Hotel-Kokoro-Mineral-Hot-Springs.h3073878.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Tamarindo Diria Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Tamarindo-Hotels-Hotel-Tamarindo-Diria-Beach-Resort.h1108151.Hotel-Information) > > [Nayara Gardens](https://www.expedia.ca/La-Fortuna-Hotels-Nayara-Gardens.h2190965.Hotel-Information) > > [Nayara Tented Camp](https://www.expedia.ca/La-Fortuna-Hotels-Nayara-Tented-Camp.h40057347.Hotel-Information) > > [Azura Beach Resort - All Inclusive - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Samara-Hotels-Azura-Beach-Resort-All-Inclusive-Adults-Only.h20586535.Hotel-Information) > > [Rio Perdido Hotel & Thermal River](https://www.expedia.ca/Fortuna-Hotels-Rio-Perdido-Hotel-Thermal-River.h6371123.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Heliconias Nature Inn & Hot Springs](https://www.expedia.ca/Penas-Blancas-Hotels-Heliconias-Nature-Lodge.h8386216.Hotel-Information) > > [Amor Arenal Adults Friendly](https://www.expedia.ca/La-Fortuna-Hotels-Amor-Arenal-Adults-Only.h29335103.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Los Lagos Spa & Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/La-Fortuna-Hotels-Hotel-Los-Lagos-Spa-Resort.h1312339.Hotel-Information) > > [The Royal Corin Thermal Water Spa & Resort - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/La-Fortuna-Hotels-The-Royal-Corin-Thermal-Water-Spa-Resort.h2486262.Hotel-Information) > > [Arenal Kioro Suites & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/La-Fortuna-Hotels-Arenal-Kioro-Suites-Spa.h1690575.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott Guanacaste Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Tamarindo-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Guanacaste-Resort-And-Spa.h2190860.Hotel-Information) > > [Arenal Paraíso Resort & Thermo Mineral Hot Springs](https://www.expedia.ca/La-Fortuna-Hotels-Arenal-Paraiso-Resort-Thermo-Mineral-Hot-Springs.h6612797.Hotel-Information) > > [Baldi Hot Springs Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/La-Fortuna-Hotels-Baldi-Hot-Springs-Hotel-And-Spa.h2145540.Hotel-Information) > > [Wyndham Tamarindo](https://www.expedia.ca/Tamarindo-Hotels-Wyndham-Tamarindo.h10356916.Hotel-Information) > > [Tabacón Thermal Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/La-Fortuna-Hotels-Tabacon-Thermal-Resort-Spa.h1142389.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Mountain Paradise](https://www.expedia.ca/La-Fortuna-Hotels-Mountain-Paradise-Wellness-Spa.h1770633.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel El Silencio del Campo](https://www.expedia.ca/La-Fortuna-Hotels-Hotel-El-Silencio-Del-Campo.h2307340.Hotel-Information) > > [The Springs Resort and Spa at Arenal](https://www.expedia.ca/Monterrey-Hotels-The-Springs-Resort-And-Spa-At-Arenal.h2307339.Hotel-Information) > > [Nayara Springs - Adults only](https://www.expedia.ca/La-Fortuna-Hotels-Nayara-Springs-Adults-Only.h8743893.Hotel-Information) > > [Paradise Hot Springs - Thermal Water & Volcano Views](https://www.expedia.ca/La-Fortuna-Hotels-Paradise-Hot-Springs-Thermal-Resort.h17222236.Hotel-Information) > > [Villas Playa Samara Beach Front Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Samara-Hotels-Villas-Playa-Samara-Beach-Front-Resort.h888268.Hotel-Information) > > [Arenal Manoa & Hot Springs Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/La-Fortuna-Hotels-Arenal-Manoa-Hot-Springs-Resort.h1671981.Hotel-Information)
