Family-friendly vacation rentals in El Tanque

staying at Green Soul was a gift! the house was immaculate and very comfortable with our baby. the property was gorgeous. we highly recommend a night walk with Manu and going for a swim in the very refreshing pool. we spent a lot of time sitting on the porch and watching the abundant wildlife around us. highly recommend and cannot wait to return!

All the reviews are spot on! This is our 3rd trip to Costa Rica and we were looking for something a little different than a normal stay at a resort. Eduardo & Marshal (father & son) were the most wonderful hosts and made us feel so welcome. The house is huge! We enjoyed the balcony the most because you won’t have a better view in all of Costa Rica. It’s phenomenal! Towels were provided for trips to the hot springs. We did a rafting trip with our boys in the area, recommended and booked by Eduardo, that we will always remember. If you want to see toucans flying in the wild…book this amazing place right now. It was perfect sleeping at night. The windows were open, no bugs, and it even felt a little chilly during the night. Extra blankets were provided in all the sleeping areas. Our kids enjoyed the one bedroom apartment up top. The house has 3 separate areas for sleeping and hanging out. We loved it all and wanted to take the dog home with us! We hope to stay again!

Our family truly enjoyed staying at Chiri Glamping. Our son had a great time climbing on the rock wall, swinging, sliding, and soaking in the hot tub. The bed and linens were the most comfortable of all our accommodations in 12 nights in CR - luxurious and plush. The bathroom was surrounded by nature and the shower products were soothing and relaxing, and everyone had their own robe. The essential oils were a nice touch, and the ac kept the room cool and inviting. We cooked dinner in the well stocked kitchen, and my husband got an amazing cocktail in the beautiful restaurant. The front desk staff was friendly, thorough, and escorted us to our room. The view overlooks Santa Elena and it was striking to watch the clouds come in and then go out within minutes. This is truly and special experience. We did hear music in the night from a nearby business and there was a bike race in the morning that woke us quite early, but in this convenient to town location, it is inevitable. Recommended!

La Finca Lodge is a true gem, exceeding expectations with an unparalleled experience. From arrival, we felt like cherished family. Magical ATV tours through sugarcane fields to rejuvenating mineral springs, and serene horseback rides exploring the stunning landscape, were incredible. Culinary delights were 'gastro-tacular,' farm-to-table feasts showcasing local abundance. The lodge's authentic focus shone in every detail. Even early mornings were special, witnessing farm life, feeding animals, and tending greenhouses. Leaving was hard, a testament to the profound connection and exceptional hospitality. This isn't just a stay; it's an immersive experience, an invitation to the region’s heart. We left eager to return, immersed in its magic. Without doubt, one of our finest stays, wholeheartedly recommended for an unforgettable retreat. Thank you to Esteban, the family and staff who made us feel at home. We look forward to visiting again, soon. :)

We had a fantastic stay at this charming little house nestled in the rainforest. The check-in process was smooth and straightforward, and the host was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout our stay. The location couldn’t be better—right in the heart of La Fortuna, making it easy to explore all the area has to offer. The home itself is cozy, clean, and surrounded by lush nature, which made for a peaceful and memorable experience. Thank you for sharing your beautiful space with us!

Our stay at the “pie in the sky” was awesome. We prefer a slightly more remote place, and this place had it in spades. Insanely beautiful views and perfect for our family as a home base while we were exploring La Fortuna and all its surrounding areas. Would absolutely go back.

It was a lovely stay for a family vacation. Great location and beautiful quiet and green surroundings. We told the host we were going for a family celebration for my 8 year olds birthday and when we got there the living room was decorated with balloons and a big 8 balloon. It was so nice!! Loved staying here 10/10

The house was great and in a beautiful surrounding. Juan always responded super fast to any inquiries we had.

The views along are worth it, and super friendly horses on the property is something our kids absolutely loved!

Great day with a very attentive host!

This is a nice, spacious place. The hosts are super friendly and gracious. The town is beautiful ... one of my favorite spots in Costa Rica.

The host and her family are beyond amazing! I was treated as family throughout my stay. I couldn't ask for anything more! I'll definitely be back!!

Really enjoyed our stay!

We enjoyed every second of our stay at Casa Cielo. We feel right at home! We loved the bathtub with a view of the stars, the hammock on the balcony at sunset, the trails around the house, the privacy and every special detail of the house. We will definitely be back.

Very clean and nice place in a friendly town , the gym staff in front of the location gave very good recommendations for food very satisfied

My partner and I travelled for the first time in Costa Rica, we lend at Liberia and Karen organized us the transport from the airport to her Airbnb. Our driver was friendly and of trust. We arrived late at night but Karen waited for us for the check-in. The place was clean and cozy. Hot water for the showers. Cuter in person than in pictures. Karen guided us through the possible activities around. She even booked an activity for us and the transport for our way to Monteverde. I do recommend it, it’s a jeep,boat,jeep, it’s worth it for the view and a faster trip instead of going around the lake. The view on the volcano was incredible. There is a restaurant, ice cream bar and a depanneur in front of the Airbnb. Karen took care of us, she went above and beyond to help us have the perfect time. Thank you for the experience!

Return customers. This is our second stay, and we had just as good a time as the first. The property is incredible, especially for bird watchers. We saw Macaws each day, along with many other birds. The home is very clean and comfortable. You can walk to town, or do a quick car ride. There are great restaurants and local Sodas close by too. A huge bonus was that Christine was able to help us with any tours we wanted. She checked in to see how things were, and if there was anything needed. Highly recommend. Also, cute Domingo, the dog next door, greeted us every day with his happy face.

We loved our stay at Casa del Rio!! The house was amazing and our kids really enjoyed the pool at the house. It is located inside a resort. It was so nice to have the privacy and space of the house for our group, but also free breakfast at the resort restaurant and access to the resort spa services (definitely recommend getting a massage!). The staff were very helpful and flexible with all of our requests. The only issue we had was the washing machine not working, but that wasn't a big deal to us.

There were 6 of us including 2 children, for a 4-day stay. Everything went well. We particularly liked the pool, the calm of the wooded, flowery and particularly neat park, the animals, the driveway and the walking trail in the forest. Eduardo, the caretaker, was nice and helped us when we needed it. In short, we loved our stay.

what a place. location is perfect for walking anywhere in La Fortuna while still remaining quiet and peaceful. John had spot-on recommendations as well for tours and activities!!

Jimmy's place was amazing! Our two kids absolutely loved the pool and little playset that was there, there is a little river a short walk alway that the kids loved! Overall we loved the stay here and wish we could have stayed longer.

Had a great vacation at this beautiful home, we are a family of 5 with 3 girls (15, 13, and 11). The kids loved having their own room and bathroom. The "kids room" is located in the back corner of the property with the pool in-between the main guest house and the kids room, worked out great for us. We loved the open air outdoor kitchen. House is nicely removed from La Fortuna but the main guest house does back to the road and can hear the traffic, while light, in the evenings and morning while sleeping, not a big issue. We spent our days exploring the area, loved the food at Jalapas, La Fortuna waterfall, rope swing, ATV and Hot Spring combo excursion (La Finca Lodge, check it out! Only 12 people at the hot spring), and Judah set us up on a white water rafting trip that was a blast! Pool was bigger than expected and enjoyed while we were on the property. Used the propane grill and outdoor burners. Beds comfortable. The grounds are very well kept and have a very nice walking path.

A very unique place. The house was wonderful and the property with amenities was very relaxing. Lots of birds and Howler Monkeys to view right off the balcony. Will definately stay again.

We loved our stay at cabin 11. Everything was just as advertised. The view from the back deck was beautiful. It was easy to walk to several restaurants and also a small store where supplies could be purchased. The morning breakfast for $7 was well worth the money. The area was convenient to the main town of La Fortuna. Just a short hike down to the river. We had a wonderful peaceful time!
