The location was peaceful and felt right in nature. We stayed 3 nights in cabaña 2 but wish we could have stayed longer. The cabaña was perfect, we had breakfast on the deck every morning and could hear the creek below us, cicadas, horses and cows in the surrounding area and watched the humming birds feed in the tree beside us. The jacuzzi below the deck was private and we could fill directly with hot water ( recommend planning ahead as it is large and takes a while if you want it hot ). The hosts were very welcoming and accommodating and recommended one of the hikes we took as well as a nearby restaurant for dinner. We were travelling in a Toyota 4x4 Hilux and were able to use this as a base to see all the area around us. We focused on unguided hikes and looked for anything off the beaten track. I would highly recommend this place for adventurous people who are looking to connect with nature. This was a highlight of our trip and look forward to coming back.

Big house with a lot of comfort. My advice: stay here when you are in la Fortuna and looking for some privacy and comfort. The house is located in a quiet road with the backyard to jungle and a nice river where you can get a bath and which delivers a nice background sound. The house is spacious inside and outside and has a nice patio with dinner table and BBQ.

This place is made by its people. The manager Leonardo is the soul of this small hotel. Maybe it’s not much fancy and chic but it’s really nice and clear. You have breakfast at the terrace together with colourful birds and squirrels who are having their breakfast. There’s a small but well cared pool. And don’t forget about frog tour with Leonardo.

This place was absolutely fabulous. It's a very big enclosed ground with lots of trees and plants. Every house - with its spacious rooms and bathrooms - has its own parking spot and its own terrace with stunning view on the volcano. After our hikes we were able to rest at our terrace and be surrounded with lots of birds - especially hummingbirds! The location of the hotel is also great - you can easily get to a lot of restaurants by foot, La Fortuna is a 5 min drive and Arenal National Park is a 20 minute drive. The staff is also extremely friendly, the breakfast was delicious and we really liked the swimming pool as well!

The apartments are lovely and of a high standard. Spacious, with beautiful detail and views. Watching the hummingbirds and the other birds was a delight. The grounds are lovely. The location is close to the road to the waterfall and so out of the hustle and bustle. Everything was perfect. Thank you. This place is a little gem and very good value.
