The host Patrick and his son Hunter are the epitome of perfect hosts. The property has so much ornate and fine detailing it's a living masterpiece. I brought my family of 16 and we had private rooms with bathrooms and beds to spare. I recommend you let Patrick make dinner as it was exquisite and perfectly delivered. The breakfast they serve is over the top with meats and eggs and breads and smoothies and fresh fruit. No expense was spared to make our stay memorable. We will certainly book here again on our next trip. It was a pleasure to stay here and we are sad to leave. Simply amazing....

Patrick and crew went above and beyond to accommodate us with their unmatched sense of customer service and their obvious people skills. Breakfast was great every morning, the place is clean, private and very interesting and large. If you’re looking for a laid back place to relax and enjoy nature, this is it.

We could not have asked for a more lovely stay at Patricks place. These guys truly know how to take care of your every need. Delicious home cook breakfast every morning, and Patrick even made us dinner a couple of nights. I can honestly say he made some of the best meals we had while in Costa Rica. He also set up excursions and transportation for us. Patrick and his crew are incredible. This was a stay we will never forget. Thank you for everything!

I am so glad we decided on staying here. It was a culmination of things that made our stay perfect! 1st was Patrick and his wife Alisa were perfect hosts. The meals they prepared were tasty and filling, we didn't have to plan anything(Patrick did it all for us), the house was soooo comfortable. It felt like home and the views!!!! Oh my goodness, the veiws were amazing. I would sit out on the balcony and have my coffee with their friendly dogs while looking out at the volcano and watching pelicans land in the trees in front of me. Simply soul refreshing!!!

This property is unbelievable. The owners go above and beyond their duties, from cooking dinner for us the first night and breakfast every morning, too booking all our excursions. This was a trip that we will never forget.

Our group of ten adults stayed at the Sunset Nov 1-5,'23 and could not have been more pleased with our experience. Villa – The home is amazing with views of Lake Arenal and the Arenal Volcano. The humidity in the Cloud Forest can be quite thick, but the AC units in the bedrooms made sleeping very comfortable. A separate refrigerator for guests was perfect. Food – a delicious breakfast was prepared each day by Luisa & Mar. Each day was a little different but always included freshly prepared smoothies (to which we added rum). We opted to have Patrick make dinner for us for two of the nights – both dinners were absolutely amazing. We also had fabulous meals at Gingerbread Restaurant & Hotel and Tinajas Arenal. Transportation – Miguel was our driver for our stay (airport pickup & excursions) and was absolutely, positively, without question, a highlight of our trip. He took great care of us and was always happy to make stops whenever we wanted and also took us to out of the way places for food, drinks, or amazing vistas. Excursions – take Patrick seriously when he says wait to book your excursions until you get to CR and meet with him. Our group enjoyed: white water rafting, Bogarin Trail sloth park, animal rescue center, hanging bridges, Baldi Hot Springs, and shopping. Helpful hints: Download WhatsApp before you leave home, best way to communicate w/ host while in CR. CC/US$ taken (MC/VISA mostly; Amex/Discover sometimes). Take raincoats/ponchos, reusable bags for shopping.
