Quiet retreat on gorgeous organic garden by lake

CatalinaRating, 5 stars25 months ago
One of the most beautiful locations, the view over the lake is simply stunning. Magical sunsets. Location is a 10. Super quiet and peaceful, many birds come close to the house and I found it a true delight to hear them sing through the morning. House is spacious, beds are comfortable. Sheets are clean and soft. Kitchen is well equipped. Terrace is just a lovely place to hang out.

Hummingbird House - Arenal's best view!

TriciaRating, 5 stars4 months ago
We enjoyed our stay! It's a nice, clean home with scenic views in an authentic, safe community. We bought a few basics for breakfast (eggs, queso blanco, milk, coffee, juice) at the nearby community mini-market (a few blocks away) so we could make breakfast at the place. If you want fresh fruits & veggies, you should stop at a bigger market on your way (La Fortuna? Or El Castillo?). We ate dinner twice at the nearby La Terraza restaurant, which was good. We loved the batidos de fruta (fruit smoothies/shakes - 'de leche' ('of milk') . My favorite is the batido de papaya (de leche). My kids also tried the strawberry, pineapple, maracuya (and I think others, too!). We enjoyed the dishes we had there, too. Internet at the house can be spotty, but there's some cell reception, too. If you're on vacation and just checking your email from time to time and researching things to do in the area, it's fine; if you're looking to be a digital nomad, this is probably not the place for you.

Private Beach Front Villa

AlexRating, 5 stars4 weeks ago
Such a beautiful location and the PERFECT villa for my family and I. The property is exactly as per the photos. It is maintained daily by Vincete (awesome guy and super friendly/really helpful). The house was cleaned daily at no extra cost. We had such a wonderful time staying here with 2 young kids, grandma and brother’s family. The view from the kitchen and outdoor area/pool is beautiful and never gets old. Would love to come back again!

Colonial Palace (2)

StanRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Our stay at Elisabeth and Michael's home was fantastic! We felt as though we had stepped back in time to the early 1900's. They have done an amazing job restoring the place while retaining the original character. Their home is truly a work of art. While there are a few modern conveniences one might find missing, we had everything we needed, were very comfortable and felt completely at home. Michael's breakfast was wonderful and he was always ready to help in every way possible. Our conversations with our hosts were captivating and one of the hi lights of our time in Costa Rica! It is quite apparent that Elisabeth and Michael love Puntarenas and Costa Rica. That affection is quite contagious and we found ourselves more in love with their country having visited with them in their home for a few days and would definitely stay with them again.

Nossa estadia foi simplesmente perfeita! A casa é impecável, localizada em um condomínio super charmoso e seguro. Tivemos uma experiência inesquecível, celebrando nosso casamento junto de alguns amigos. Tudo ficou ainda mais especial graças à anfitriã, Laura, que foi extremamente solícita e sempre respondeu rapidamente a todas as nossas mensagens. Laura também ajudou nossos amigos a organizar uma surpresa maravilhosa (festa) para comemorarmos ainda mais esse momento. Minha amiga, que teve contato direto com a Laura, ficou encantada com toda a atenção, gentileza e apoio que recebeu durante todo o processo. Somos muito gratos por termos vivido esse momento tão único em uma casa tão acolhedora, charmosa e em uma praia belíssima. Para tornar tudo ainda mais especial, recebemos de presente uma espumante e uma linda guirlanda de flores da anfitriã. Tudo foi preparado com muito carinho e cuidado. Recomendo demais a estadia, tanto pela casa quanto pelo acolhimento excepcional da Laura.

Finca rural, jacuzzi y balcón con vistas al volcán

JosephRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Absolutely loved our stay! The property is stunning, with beautifully maintained grounds and breathtaking views of the volcano. Very private - no one else nearby. Our kids couldn’t get enough of the pool and jacuzzi—it was the perfect place to relax. The location is great too, just a quick and easy 15-minute drive into downtown. Kenneth was an exceptional host—super responsive and thoughtful, even leaving fresh coconuts in the fridge for us. We would definitely stay here again!
