A quiet location in the middle of the rainforest, yet 10 minutes from La Fortuna and Arenal Vulcano National Park. The property offers complete privacy (you can even drink your morning coffee naked under a palm tree).

The location was peaceful and felt right in nature. We stayed 3 nights in cabaña 2 but wish we could have stayed longer. The cabaña was perfect, we had breakfast on the deck every morning and could hear the creek below us, cicadas, horses and cows in the surrounding area and watched the humming birds feed in the tree beside us. The jacuzzi below the deck was private and we could fill directly with hot water ( recommend planning ahead as it is large and takes a while if you want it hot ). The hosts were very welcoming and accommodating and recommended one of the hikes we took as well as a nearby restaurant for dinner. We were travelling in a Toyota 4x4 Hilux and were able to use this as a base to see all the area around us. We focused on unguided hikes and looked for anything off the beaten track. I would highly recommend this place for adventurous people who are looking to connect with nature. This was a highlight of our trip and look forward to coming back.

The property manager (Leonardo) and the staff care for the guests as people. In my case, a thunderstorm brewed over the night and I was planning to drive to our next location. Leonardo and another staff member looked up some local news to make sure we knew what the safest route was. In regard to the room, they have 2 AC units and loads of space for either couples or small families. The community is secure and feels very cozy. Breakfast is delicious. HIGHLY HIGHLY regard others to stay here.

Would happily return and recommend to anyone looking for an oasis on the outskirts of the town. The gardens were beautifully maintained and we saw parrots, hummingbirds and loads of other birds each day.
