The frog house

La privacidad

Satisfecha

This is a special place. Nature surrounds you. We started our tour here, and we were amazed. This is a family operation, and when we stayed here, we felt well looked after.

Some very minor improvements like hooks to hang clothing and towels, a table to put your luggage would be nice.

Comfortable king bed. Make your own coffee available.

Clogged shower drain. Bathroom sink faucet leaked. Location on a street with run down houses with piles of trash in the yard.

Spacious and comfortable house in the nature. We loved the view from the house on the river and also the jacuzzi.

The street of the lodge looks not too welcoming and we found a big cockroach in the bathroom, which wasn't a good introduction.

Friendly host, clean room, the whole setup with Creek behind it and hotub is very interesting and appealing. Very large room and bed. Cannot say enough good things about the host.

Entrance towards the property at the edge of the town is not appealing, property needs a lot of shelving, 1 extra night stand, somewhere to be able to leave little things. Just more detail in room and bathroom would be nice.

Comfort, cleanness, cosy, fancy details

Beautiful little backyard with its own stream and private jacuzzi. (Which was super clean and new!) The owner lives in the house in the front with family and the rental is a separate unit in the back. We still had full privacy when inside or on the patio area. Joscan, the manager/owner is very nice and pleasant to deal with. A/c works great, smart TV, fridge, coffee maker, single gas burner for cooking. Good water pressure with Warm water & large shower. Quick drive into town 5-10 minutes can get you to a grocery store, restaurants, & there is even an “adventure” ( zip line horses etc) park 5 min away. We were provided with a covered space for our car which is great. The Arenal Volcano Park is about 30 minutes driving and along the way you pass the main town of La Fortuna as well as all the hot springs & many tour operations. But the place is quiet and peaceful. Just a regular street and neighborhood where locals live. The garden around the casita is lovely. Joscan has good taste in plants! :) Of course there is also natural beauty with the huge trees and native plants growing around the stream. Little frogs sing at night. It’s a nice little piece of a beautiful area.

If I were to improve my only suggestion would be a microwave to reheat food easily. Maybe a blender for smoothies. But that’s just my personal preference.

The location was wonderful, looking out onto a beautiful little stream. It was an easy five minute drive into town. The property was immaculately clean and had everything we needed. The little house was beautifully thought-out and very modern. There are indeed many beautiful little frogs in the creek behind the house and my 8 yr old and I had a wonderful time searching for critters. The neighborhood is comfortable and great for morning strolls. We loved it and would book again in a minute. A+++

Our La Fortuna stay was an enchanting haven for our honeymoon. Its proximity to downtown made exploring easy, and the host's warmth and care created a welcoming atmosphere. Celebrating Christmas there was unforgettable – the host's family prepared a delightful Costa Rican dinner. Mornings by the stream, sipping coffee, added a serene touch to our adventure. Highly recommended for a memorable getaway. We would come back again!
