Convenient location

The house was located so close to town so it was easy to get to dining and shopping. Some excursions were a little drive but would have been for the local resorts also. I wish we had taken an opportunity to eat at the host house, sounded like everything was delicious there, but we didn’t have the time. We loved walking the property every night to hunt for frogs!

Very nice house with very nice hosts and property

The house is very nice and comfortable. What makes this property special is the hos, the property and a great location. Though the property is not particularly large it is packed full of interesting plants and wildlife (birds, a young sloth, reptiles, etc.). The host was always willing to answer our questions and we had a great time taking a cooking class (a family affair) where we prepared, cooked and then ate a wide variety of local foods. Great place to stay.

Sloth in your back yard!

We stayed for three nights. It was a nice location, with a family farm right on the property. Lidianna was super sweet and took us on a tour of the farm, which included a resident sloth! They also do night hikes and cooking classes, but we didn't try them. The house itself is not fancy, but fit our needs . ho

Wonderful stay

We had a lovely stay in this house just outside La Fortuna. We had delicious meals and highly recommend having breakfast and dinner at the house. It was amazing to see Flash the sloth hanging out in the garden. The house has a great location near activities but gives an authentic feel. Pura vida!

Great Location!

We enjoyed meeting Lidiana and taking a tour of her garden. Seeing "Flash" the sloth and the twins was quite a treat. Lidiana makes the best tea fresh from the garden! As an added bonus, the home is located near to many of La Fortuna's best attractions.

Great for a family trip

This house worked great for our stay in the La Fortuna area. We appreciated having three separate bedrooms (each with a fan!) as it allowed us a spread out a bit. The area was very quiet. Unfortunately, since it was the rainy season, we did not get to see much of the sloths. We would definitely look to stay here again if we come back to Costa Rica!

Nice place to stay on a beautiful property

We cooked with our host which was so fun. After dinner we took a very cool night tour and saw so many cool critters. . There are chickens and dogs. It is not a place with bells and whistles. It’s a step above camping and we were all very comfy.

February stay

We enjoyed our stay at Ceibo arenal very much. Very exotic setting amongst the jungle trees with toucans visible as soon as we pulled in. Lidiana and Roberto and their sons Aaron and Edison were lovely and welcoming and we enjoyed the dinner they prepared for us and the nighttime tour of the frog ponds after dinner. It was my birthday while we were there and lidiana handcrafted a bracelet with my name for me which was so thoughtful and sweet! Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Awesome experience

Stay here for an authentic Costa Rican experience. Lidiana and Eddy couldn’t have been more welcoming, informative and easy to get along with. We thoroughly enjoyed the organic garden, Flash and her twins, the frogs, the breakfasts and dinner in the outdoor kitchen, and the tropical flowers, especially the “fuzzy” heliconias. We’re so glad we chose Ceibo Arenal for our Arenal visit.

Incredible stay. Incredible hosts. A real gem.

This is a fantastic little home with amazing hosts. Location was perfect with a wildlife sanctuary in the back yard ;) we say baby sloths, beautiful birds iguanas, poison dart frogs, etc. all on the property. There are also beautiful gardens filled with pineapple, plantains, bananas, peppers and so much more. Your hosts Lidiana and Eddie use all of those ingredients in your delicious breakfasts and the offered cooking class. Lidiana is such a beautiful soul and took care of our every need. What else can I say, we loved our stay at Ceibo Arenal Home!

Unique experience

We spent a week here. This was a unique experience for us. We enjoyed Costa Rica farm life with a friendly and helpful family. The house is cozy and comfortable with a bit of a rustic feel - the roosters woke us, friendly dogs wandered about and Flash the sloth provided entertainment. Lidiana, Eddy and their sons were welcoming. We highly recommend the cooking class.

Wonderful family and true Costa Rican experience

We stayed at Ceibo Arenal for four wonderful days. The home is close to all the activities that La Fortuna has to offer and is nestled on a beautiful piece of property with gardens that offer home grown food for breakfast or dinner. We also. We participated in a cooking class with Lidiana, Eddie, and their eldest son Edison that was a true highlight of our trip and made this a wonderful stay for my daughter, friend, and I. We would highly recommend Ceibo Arenal if you visit La Fortuna. …..Flash is also a must see!!!

Great little house for a family

WE loved having three bedrooms and enjoyed such great hospitality. Lidiana was one of our trip's highlights! She prepared a home cooked meal (for a fee) that was amazing and it was fun to see the birds, sloths, and tree frogs on the property! We had a car, and for us the location was perfect although one could take a bus. If older kids or adults are staying in the front bedroom, I suggest bringing something to expand the outlets. We cooked our own breakfast/ lunches in the kitchen. Lidiana can help you find the best grocery store and there are several fast and full service laundries in town. All in all a great experience!

Beautiful house and wonderful hosts

The property was exactly what we needed for exploring the La Fortuna area. The beds were comfy and the house had everything we needed. It is located close to town and all the major tourist locations. The property is beautiful. We saw red eyed tree frogs out the kitchen window and a scarlet macaw in the trees next to the house. Lidiana and Eddy are wonderful hosts. We went to their kitchen for breakfast during our stay- delicious! We wished we could have taken their cooking class, but we were booked up. If you have time in your schedule, you should do so. Our kids enjoyed all of their animals and we got to see the two sloths that live on their property! We really loved our visit and whole heatedly recommend staying here.

The place is huge...3 separate bedrooms, a dining area, a full kitchen complete with all the necessities for cooking, and a coffee maker. Wake up early to see the resident sloth moving around and eating and come back around 5 pm or so to watch the red-eyed tree frogs hopping around on the leaves right by your place. Take advantage of the $5 breakfast. Eddie is a fantastic cook and Lidiana goes to great lengths to make you feel welcomed and comfortable. We didn't do the cooking class (but wished we had). This place is very convenient to the downtown area where you'll find restaurants, a drop-off laundry service (U.S. prices for this service!), and more. It's close to major attractions.

Your own piece of the rainforest

This house is a true Costa Rican house you don’t even have to leave the house to see Birds Butterflies Lizards Frogs and a very pregnant sloth. They have a outside kitchen where Lidiana Eddie and the young adult kids will fix you s real Costa Rican breakfast and it was delicious or you can take a cooking class where you go to Lidinia’s garden and pick the herbs vegetables and greens for your meal. Then you go back to kitchen and they help you prepare a fabulous meal. In the garden you have the most beautiful postcard picture of Arenal volcano and then you add the sunset and that made it perfect. Lidinia Eddie and the boys were absolutely wonderful. Can’t wait to go back. Pura Vida.

True Costa Rican Experience

We stayed four nights with another couple in the Ceibo Arenal home. It was amazing! Lidiana was the best host ever. It is such an authentic experience. The home was clean and perfect for our home base exploring the Arenal area. Lidiana and her husband Eddie were so kind and fun to be around. We had them make us breakfast one morning (delicious) and also took their cooking class (fun and delicious). The property is so beautiful and we were so blessed to see Flash (their resident sloth) and her twin babies up close when she came down one day. We found so many frogs each night right behind the house too. This is the place you want to book if you want the true Costa Rican experience. Thank you to Lidiana and Eddie for sharing your beautiful property with us. We hope to be back soon!

Outstanding Hosts and Place

We loved the set up. The house is surrounded by beautiful trees. We were able to see frogs, toucan and Lidiana was so nice to show us the sloth that is living there! We were happy to learn more about the sloths from her and we enjoy watching Eddie's videos of them. Lidiana and Eddie are so welcoming, super friendly hosts. We just wished we had more time there to enjoy the breakfast or dinner they have in their offer as well. They have a great set up for cooking classes as well, but again our stay was too short. We appreciated that their place was very clean and Lidiana was ready to provide anything we needed. We went to see Mystico Arenal Hanging Bridges and loved it. It is worth to go there first thing in the morning. Fewer people and more active animals. Thank you so much Lidiana and Eddie!! We would love to be back:)
