Amazing family adventure!

Could not have been happier with our stay. Everything was in good working condition but the house was just rustic enough to maintain some local charm.

Perfect Place

We loved everything about this property. It was a perfect place to relax in the afternoons and watch all the various wildlife around the property. The property managers are very responsive. Note: SET THE ALARM SYSTEM every time you leave (no matter where you stay in CR). We hope to stay again someday.

Amazing Property!

So many animals are on this property. Bring binoculars! You can watch so many different animals without having to leave the property. Two sodas are withing walking distance. The home was clean. Everything was so great. The kitchen is really small, but we made it work! Thank you!

Peaceful location with access to nature

The house was clean and charming. Our host Mario was flexible with the check in time. The pond and pool were amazing and well kept. There was a path by the river for hiking. The only issues we had was that 2 of the 4 beds had very worn out mattresses; you could feel the springs and there was no support. The stove was a bit broken and the gate fell off its track once, which I resolved in a few minutes of fiddling around with it, but would have been an issue for someone less handy

Jungle house

Great stay at a very traditional Costa Rican property. House is on beautiful acreage and we saw toucans and other amazing birds, iguanas, and an alligator. The main part of the house can get kind of warm but it’s nice the bedrooms are air conditioned. We had a good time!

Aptly named property

A nice home on a large and lovely property, with a pool, a pond and expect to see many different kind of beautiful birds. About 7 kms from La Fortuna, but there is a nice restaurant nearby and a grocery store in the village. Bedrooms have shelf storage but no closets or ways to hang clothing, which can be an issue for extended stays. Hot water in bathrooms only, but not in kitchen. Extra cleaning, towels, etc. readily available for extended stays.

we loved our stay here, it was really central for the things that we wanted to do and we really enjoyed the property. It got a bit warm in the main living area mid day as there's no A/C there. But the rooms all have A/C and sleeping was quite comfortable.

Jungle Paradise: A Costa Rican Villa Experience Like No Other

We recently stayed at the most incredible jungle villa in Costa Rica, and it was truly a dream come true! From the moment we arrived, we were immersed in the magic of the rainforest. Every morning, we woke to the sounds of howler monkeys and the sight of them swinging through the trees just outside the villa. Afternoons brought sightings of caimans near the water, colorful birds flitting through the canopy, and frogs of every size and color coming to life as the evening set in. It was like living in a nature documentary!The villa itself was stunning—spacious, comfortable, and designed to blend perfectly with its surroundings. The open layout allowed us to feel connected to the jungle while enjoying all the modern luxuries. We loved relaxing on the patio with a cup of Costa Rican coffee, soaking in the lush views, and spending evenings under the stars listening to the symphony of the jungle.This villa was not just a place to stay; it was an experience that exceeded all our expectations. Whether you’re a wildlife enthusiast, an adventurer, or just looking for a tranquil retreat, this jungle villa is absolutely perfect. We can’t wait to come back!

This property was perfect for our family of 5. The location was about a 10 minute drive from restaurants and shops. We absolutely loved the land the house is on, we saw many birds, colorful butterflies, leafcutter ants and the resident cayman. Our teens enjoyed exoloring the area and the beautiful view of the volcano from the driveway. We spent our evenings relaxing on the wrap around porch listening to the rain. We would definitely spend time here again.
