Everything is great about area property h9st and house, our family had a great time and wished it could have been longer, closer to parks restaurants downtown and all.activities around Arenal. Best location.

Perfect for what we needed.

As a mom traveling from the US without her husband, and with a bunch of kids (and with my elderly parents), I was extremely happy with our stay! This house had a mini split (A/C) in each bedroom as well as the kitchen/family room. The host was ALWAYS available (we used WhatsApp, but also available using VRBO messaging). As for safety, I never once worried about my safety or the security of the property. It is in a residential area. Some homeowners are full time residents, other homes are vacation rentals. It was a three dollar Uber ride too and from town, which was a mile and a half walk. The house had an amazing outdoor living space right off of the kitchen/family room. We loved to spend our mornings drinking coffee and our evenings just hanging out recapping about the day on the covered deck. The backyard had a small above ground pool. We would definitely stay again.

We enjoyed our stay. The pool was tiny and above ground - something I didn't expect - but was clean and the kids liked it nonetheless. After we checked out is when the problems started. He tried to charge us 50.00 USD for 2 towels that he said we stole. First of all, we didn't steal any towels and didn't even have room in our bags for the stuff we purchased. We explained this to him and he would not relent. He kept trying to charge us a ridiculous amount of money for 2 towels! I'd like to give the place a good review and I would have had the owner been reasonable. Who steals towels from a BNB while on vacation? We could have purchased cool vacation-themed towels if we were that desperate.
