The house worked well for our family of 5 (two adults and three teens). The outside space was terrific for reading, lounging, and playing cards at the end of our days out exploring. Ate our meals out, but the coffeemaker was way to use and the fridge was nice to hold our drinks and any take out containers. Location is a perfect jumping off point for all of the adventures La Fortuna has to offer!

Pet friendly and gated so that they do not run onto the street. The stray dogs appeared to be friendly. Located close to any event you might want to do. We went to the Tabacon hot springs and would advise going. Coffee and chocolate tour by Don Juan was also good, especially the store which has a great selection of all kinds of chocolates and coffee. Let it be noted. this unit does not have a hot tub as you may read in amenities. TV in the bedroom was a nice plus, some coffee and 2 beers in the refrig. "You are going to need a cocktail after the drive into La Fortuna." My husband liked the shower; however, ladies bring a shower cap as it's a rain shower head.

The property was very quaint and perfect for what we were looking for. It was clean and well maintained too. The host was easy to communicate with and even left us some soda and beer in the fridge upon arrival! Cons are no fault of the owner but the neighbor has a rooster that crows anywhere from 4-6am. Most people seem to own chickens/roosters so that part isn’t unusual and we would likely experience that anywhere else we stayed, but it was a surprise wake up call. She does ask that you keep the A/C off while you’re out of the house. I can understand that probably due to cost, but I’ll say from first hand experience, it’s not fun sweating all day and coming back to a house the same temp as the outside and waiting for the room units to cool the place down a little. She was very polite when she asked us to keep it off while we were out, so we did. It was really close to all the excursions and restaurants and wasn’t hard to learn your way around without GPS. I would stay here again if we ever made it back to the area!

This place was great. I would recommend staying here. Karen was responsive and it was easy to find. There was AC in the rooms and a wonderful shower. It was close by all the nice things in Fortuna and dog friendly. I would recommend staying here to anyone. Felt very safe.
