Guest Reviews

• Mora (10/5): - Todo estuvo increíble
• Stefan (8/5): -
• Juan Antonio (8/5): -
• Christian (10/5): Wunderbare Unterkunft, gerne wieder! - Allgemein sehr schöne Unterkunft. Besonders haben mir der Jacuzzi und die Hängematten im offenen Wohnbereich gefallen. Das Frühstück wurde zur Wunschzeit in die Unterkunft gebracht. Was will man mehr :)
• Genevieve (10/5): Très belle expérience, je recommande - Disposition des pièces, mur végétal, bain tourbillon, hamacs Rien
• André (10/5): -
• Petra (10/5): Great place to stay in La Fortuna - One of the best apartments that we stayed. Design of the apartment is really cool and amazing, we really liked it. Liked the concept of open space/ outdoor kitchen and living room but closed bedroom and bathroom. Really good communication with the owner via Wapp about everything. Breakfast was simple but nice for starting the day. Its 15-20min car ride to La Fortuna Waterfall and pretty close to all restaurants or cafes. The lady who welcomed us only speaks spanish which I would say wasn't a bad thing just something that the owner could notify us, but didn't really bother us since she was polite and nice, but only a heads up would be nice. Definately would recommend the place to everyone who wants to stay in La Fortuna.
• Mariusz (3/5): - Home La Fortuna offers two accommodation options: one with a pool and one with a jacuzzi. We stayed in the jacuzzi unit, which was a nice spot to rest after hiking. The place includes a bedroom with bathroom and an open kitchen outside under the roof, just as shown in the pictures. It was a bit hot in the open kitchen during the day when we arrived, but we were out hiking the other days, so no issue. Mornings and evenings were perfect for the open kitchen and jacuzzi. Breakfast was good, matching the photos. Karina and Freisy are really nice hosts. Chatting with them was pleasant, and Freisy shared helpful recommendations. Karina and Freisy also run a spot near Parque Nacional Volcán Tenorio in Rio Celeste - we stayed one night. It's remote with a jungle-view lodge where you hear wildlife day and night and it an "all-inclusive stay" with breakfast/dinner cooked by them and also guided forest walks. We joined a forest walk and night walk; trails are clay-heavy, and the simple cooking setup adds to the adventure. Drive an SUV, as the road to the property is rocky. Why rating 3? One unexpected issue arose after the night walk: we were charged $90, despite it being advertised as "all-inclusive." I paid but mentioned it the next morning; Freisy seemed surprised we didn't know and offered a refund, as he had forgotten to send us a description of extra-cost activities including the night walk. When I was leaving, I asked about the refund, and he said he would send it through PayPal after I sent him my account details. When I did, he replied that he was worried about my review and would issue the refund only after I posted it. This was surprising to me, as it was the second time Freisy had promised a refund but had not provided it. My review of the stay at the Home La Fortuna and Rio Celeste Lodge remains positive, as it was a very nice experience overall. However, Freisy's refund handling was disappointing. Once I receive the refund, I'll treat the issue as resolved, update my rating, and delete this comment - but if you're reading it, I haven't received it yet.
• Francine (10/5): Visite région du lac et volcan Arenal - Appartement original la cuisine et salon sont sous un toit et les murs sont en végétation naturelle . La chambre est fermée avec de vrai mur et climatisé. Bon petit déjeuner. Kari est très accueillante.C’est vraiment très beau . Nous avons eu un peu de difficulté à trouver mais par booking nous avons communiqué avec Kari
• Yamileth (10/5): Muy recomendable - Nos quedamos en la que tiene jacuzzi, estuvo excelente, la casa es muy cómoda, tal cual las fotos, ofrecen desayuno muy rico. Uno se siente seguro y cómodo allí. La cocina muy completa.
• Louna (10/5): - Very clean and big home for us only. Very nice and helpful staff.
• Ernesto (9/5): -
• Aaron (9/5): Mostly private location with private pool and good breakfast - Great Breakfast with multiple options. Pool was nice and clean. Kitchen had everything we needed for the meals we ate there. Beds were good but a few more pillow firmness options up front would be good (the housekeeper supplied a new pillow mid way through that helped!). Responsiveness in communication was good. Landscaping could use some attention, branches overhung and rubbed on the car when we drove through and were leaning out and into the pool a bit. Couch was okay, but not comfortable to lay on and only one or two of us could sit on it at a time. Some bar stools would be good for the countertop and a few more comfy chairs inside would help. Does share a lot with another rental property and the housekeeper, but we had no issues and hardly noticed.
• Mora (10/5): - Love the breakfast.
• Jürg (9/5): - Sehr grosszügige und einmalige Wohnung Frühstück ist langweilig. Kein Brot Schlüsselübergabe war nur in Spanisch. Kein Englisch
• Francois (9/5): We had a wonderful host; very friendly and proactive in recommending and booking activities for us - Location is great, it's not too far away from town. Breakfast was excellent and consistently served right on time. They do have a rooster on the property, which could be a concern if you’re a light sleeper.
• Judith (10/5): I loved it and it would be our number one choice for next year. - Privacy, staff were great Freisy helped us get our tours organized. Breakfast was delicious. Nothing. It was great.
• Evelyn (10/5): - Todo estaba muy limpio y ordenado. El tener la piscina es un plus excelente. La atencion de Freisy super buena, nos dio buenas recomendaciones para disfrutar con mi peque de 3 años. Definitivamente vamos a volver. Seria genial que el TV tenga señal, aunque sea normal para poder ver noticias, partidos, etc. Ya que conectar los telefonos fue muy complicado
• Evelith (10/5): -
• Nayker (1/5): -
• Marion (7/5): Wir haben die zwei Tage dennoch sehr genossen. - Das Haus ist wunderschön! Auch wenn es etwas außerhalb von Fortuna ist, liegt es dafür sehr ruhig. Obwohl schon einige Reisende dies bemängelt Karben, wird es leider nicht behoben: Keine Nachttischlampen, nur ein sehr grelles Licht von oben. Die Kissen sind sehr ungemütlich, da sie viel zu groß sind. Ich verstehe leider nicht, wieso der Besitzer diese zwei Punkte nach mehrmaligen Verbesserungsvorschläge nicht umsetzt. Es sind ja keine Kosten… Schön wäre auch, wenn zum Beispiel Kaffeefilter vorhanden wären, da nicht jeder Reisende in jeder Größe Kaffeefilter dabei hat! Die Begrüßung von einer Spanisch sprechenden Putzfrau dauerte genau 1 Minute. Es wurde uns gezeigt, wie man den Code für die Tür eingibt und das WLAN Passwort mitgeteilt.
• Jens Erik (10/5): Tolles und komfortables Haus in ruhiger Lage - Alles, sehr neues und komfortables offenes Haus (1 Schlafzimmer), Whirlpool und absolut vollständige Ausstattung, leckeres Frühstück und sehr freundliche Betreuung. Perfekt! Nichts
• Thibault (9/5): -
• jean (10/5): - Mon ami et moi disposions chacun d'une suite parentale avec accès à la piscine privative. Le petit déjeuner au choix nous etait apporté tous les matins et déposé au bord de la piscine, le salon et la cuisine ouverte (bien équipée) était très agréable. Le parking dans la propriété est couvert. Rapport qualité / prix c'est le meilleur hébergement que j'ai trouvé depuis longtemps. Le propriétaire nous a donné des adresses d'activités à faire. Tout était parfait. Si il y a un reproche à faire cela serait l'absence de TV (bien qu'il y ait un grand écran mais pas de raccordement aux programmes, il faut donc raccordé son smartphone ou pc à laTV. Ceci dit quand on voyage on n'y va pas pour regarder la TV...
• Bernd (8/5): Kurzurlaub im Haus mit Pool - Sehr guter Service und Hilfsbereitschaft Weit von La Fortuna entfernt
• RN (7/5): Nice place - The private pool was great, clean, and had lights. The house was very modern with a nice kitchen and great floor to ceiling glass showing off the pool area. The house was clean. The AC worked really well and was much appreciated. The house was gated and felt safe. The beds were too hard for us and could use more than 1 pillow, but may be good if you like a firm bed. Note there are two different properties listed in the same listing so it's a bit confusing, one has a pool and the other has a hot tub.
• arnaud (10/5): - Très belle maison confortable Piscine Très agréable Accueil du propriétaire chaleureux et convivial Je recommande
• Raquel (10/5): Sin duda recomendable 100% - Nuestra estancia en Costa Rica fue simplemente maravillosa. El alojamiento es muy especial, diferente a lo que estamos acostumbrados, y nos hizo sentir como si estuviéramos en plena selva, pero de una manera cómoda, segura y muy agradable. Ha sido una experiencia única, especialmente para nuestros hijos, que han quedado encantados. La casa tenía todo lo necesario para disfrutar de la estancia, pero lo que realmente marcó la diferencia fue el trato humano. Nuestro hijo se puso enfermo durante el viaje y Freisy, el dueño, estuvo pendiente de nosotros en todo momento. Nos ayudó de forma totalmente desinteresada, preparándole él mismo infusiones naturales que ellos utilizan habitualmente en lugar de medicinas para aliviar los síntomas. Fue un gesto precioso que nunca olvidaremos. Además, teníamos previstas algunas excursiones que finalmente no pudimos hacer debido al estado de salud de nuestro hijo. Freisy nos ofreció alternativas adaptadas a su situación, para que pudiera disfrutar de Costa Rica sin realizar un esfuerzo físico que no podía asumir en ese momento. Gracias a ello, pudimos seguir disfrutando de la experiencia en familia. Sin duda, si volvemos, repetiremos encantados. Además, sabemos que también tiene un alojamiento en Río Celeste que nos encantaría visitar en otra ocasión. Totalmente recomendable, tanto por el lugar como por la calidad humana.
• Philipp (9/5): - Großer offener Wohnbereich, absolut einzigartig! Außerdem der Whirlpool.
• Ursula (8/5): Für 2 Nächte ideal. - Die Lage war sehr gut, der Pool war toll, leider hatten wir nur Regen . Alles ok
• Mariana (10/5): - Excelente lugar, la casa super amplia y cómoda.
• Václav (9/5): - Spokojenost, dobrá lokalita pro výlety v okolí.
• Michael (3/5): Bochornosa - La habitación y el aire acondicionado No hay privacidad. Los vecinos literalmente te ven en el jacuzzi. Tampoco hay seguridad de ningún tipo.
• Ronald (9/5): -
• Nathalie (9/5): - Le jaccusi est un plus , location au calme et à proximité de la fortuna avec une cuisine très bien équipée.
• Battias (9/5): Linda casa - Linda casa, un poco alejada de los lugares turísticos, pero cerca de comercios en general. Muy bien equipada, es una casa, no un condominio como parecía en las fotos. Muy amables todos y bien predispuestos Todo ok
• Sergey (10/5): -
• Emanuel (10/5): -
• mark (10/5): -
• Defrance (10/5): welcomd to paradise - Superbe maison entièrement ouverte sur la végétation. Le jacuzzi est un vrai plus après une journée de visite. Le petit déjeuner était délicieux et servi à l'heure enfin le contact et l'accueil de Freisy était chaleureux et naturel. Deux lampes de chevet!
• Elias (9/5): Lugar cómodo y un buen anfitrión - Instalaciones Todo en orden
• Katerina (10/5): - It was a fun and spacious space The beds were a little harder than I was used to but still slept great
• Stacy (8/5): A modern and clean place to stay with an attentive host. - The host met us at the gate, gave a tour, and very thorough instructions for the property. The hot tub was cool enough to enjoy in the heat. The place was unique and we enjoyed having a full kitchen including full size fridge. The host was very proactive in assisting with setting up tours and activities as well as providing directions. It was not a walkable area, but only a 15 minute drive to La Fortuna. The listing had pictures of the pool, and prior reviews on pool use, but when asked we were informed that the pool was for the other villa so that wasn't clear in the listing.
• Maria (10/5): Safe hideaway near La Fortuna. - We loved the spacious backyard space and the large pool. The beds were super comfortable and the unit was very modern, clean and ample. Nature all around and very private and gated. Delicious breakfast brought to us every morning. Friesy was very helpful with suggestions. A bit of a ways La Fortuna but it was a nice hideaway from the hustle of the main city.
• Kristien (8/5): Tof verblijf, heel behulpzame hoast -
• Mariana (10/5): -
• eva (8/5): - La casa esta muy bien y el jacuzzi es espectacular. El dueño es atento y contesta rapido x whatsapp Echamos en falta uns mesita de noche, la luz de techo es muy fuerte para las noches. Las almohadas son muy altas y nos parecieron incomodas, estaria bien tener dos tipos una mas baja y otra mas alta. El comentario es mas un plus para conseguir la excelencia 🤪 El desayuno es tb. Mejorable, pero suele es asi x toda costa rica
• Masoud (10/5): Luxury and comfortable accommodation with very reasonable price - Luxury and comfortable accommodation Size of the beds are not good for two people, need to change the bed size to king
• Stan (10/5): Goed - Locatie, prijs-kwaliteitsverhouding. Ontbijt was ook prima. Niks. Moesten alleen redelijk lang wachten bij het inchecken omdat er niet gereageerd werd, maar dit was geen probleem.
• Thomas (10/5): - Sehr angenehmer Aufenthalt in einem sehr schönen Haus. Funktional eingerichtet mit guter Ausstattung in der Küche. Der Pool ist der Hammer!
• Dorota (10/5): - Bardzo miły i pomocny właściciel, poświęcił dużo czasu, aby nam pomóc zaplanować wolny czas. Dom, ogród i basen cudowne. Pyszny sok z ananasa na śniadanie. Nie było nic co by się nam nie podobało
• Juan Leonardo (10/5): -
• D45S (9/5): - Le lieu calme, le jardin, la piscine, la grandeur de l'habitation, la propreté, le parking de la voiture Très bien pour 4 personnes Rien
• Álvarez (1/5): No lo recomiendo - Nada El trato del propietario, fue irrespetuoso y poco profesional
• Matthew (10/5): It is a very nice property, a pleasant stay - Heated pool is a great benefit, also it had a clothes washer but no dryer Lack of a clothes dryer
• Eliyahu (10/5): היה מעולה - הכל טוב חנייה מול הדלת מיקום מעולה הכל טוב
• Roman (9/5): -
• Joaquina (9/5): - La originalidad del lugar Todo bien!
• Ana (10/5): Estancia maravillosa - La casa muy acogedora. Un patio muy bonito con piscina. Fue una estancia estupenda. Karina y Freysi muy amables y atentos. Lo recomiendo 100%
• Beverley (8/5): Unique stay surrounded by nature in Fortuna area.. - Very open. Great kitchen amenities , huge walk in closet , large modern bathroom , washing machine , hammocks . The bedroom has A/C and 4 walls (secure door ) , the main living area is essentially a covered marble floor patio (40 + feet long) with roof framed by tropical vegetation. Must love nature in all forms (birds, geckos , butterflies, small mammals such as Caiti ) . Delicious breakfasts . In a residential area . Near small town of Los Angeles . Close to all attractions of Fortuna area & Anura Park . Great wifi . Not walkable to town or any restaurants .
• Christian (10/5): Bel experience - Rien tout était parfait.
• Ana Beatriz (7/5): - da disposição da casa do café da manhã, senti falta de iogurte e frutas ao invés de café americano
• Irina (10/5): - Helpful host, good breakfast (flexible) with our diet, intimate and quiet Pillows could be more comfortable and flat
• Chantal (9/5): A date c’est notre meilleur hébergement. - Nous avons tout aimé ! Excellent déjeuner et les hotes sont tellement gentils. Ils nous ont aider pour nos activités et ils étaient très intentionnés à nos demandes. Je recommande à 100%!

• Hęllęn (10/5): Excelente atención y lugar - La atención y el lugar muy lindo y limpio
• Connolly (10/5): - breakfast and service was great.the house was spacious and clean.the pool and grounds were also very nice.
• Patricia (10/5): Einzigartige , neuwertige u. chillige Location mit viel Platz und trotz teils offener Bauweise nahezu keine Insekten. - Einzigartig! Alles bestens. Küche und Wohnbereich teils in offener Bauweise, jedoch durch abgestimmte Bepflanzung nahezu keine Insekten. Dadurch direkte Vogelbeobachtungen aus den entspannenden Hängematten möglich. Whirlpool wird nach einigen Minuten angenehm warm. Sehr viel Platz. Warme Dusche, großes Badezimmer, begehbarer Kleiderschrank, bequeme Betten. Ruhige Lage, überdachter Parkplatz direkt vor dem Eingang. Alle drei Frühstücksoptionen waren lecker und ausreichend. Vermieterin antwortete schnell und war sehr nett. Waschmaschine vorhanden, Wäschetrocknen übernimmt Vermieterin. Klimaanlage im Schlafzimmer war gut, aber etwas laut.
• Elia (10/5): - Nuestra estancia fue muy confortable, el anfitrión nos dio opciones de tours para disfrutar en familia. Super Recomendado.
• Glenda (10/5): Excelente!!! - Todo!!! Excelente lugar, lindo limpio super cómodo y un buen trato 10/10 la Comida muy buena !!!! Y muy buena ubicación lugar super tranquilo y seguro
• Suzanne (10/5): - Heerlijk verblijf, de ruimte, het zwembad, alle faciliteiten, communicatie met de host, flexibiliteit, denken heel goed mee en helpen met het meeste uit je reis te halen. Alleen maar positief! Niets
• Diego A (8/5): -
• VICTOR (10/5): -
• Mike (10/5): Great innovative place to stay. - There are two properties here - one with a jacuzzi and one with a pool. They are both exceptional in their own way. The first one has a large bedroom / bathroom with everything else - huge lounge (with hammocks) kitchen, jacuzzi coming under the roof and within the living walls. It was great. The second place was more luxurious and had more indoor accommodation - lovely and light with a great pool. The hosts - Karina and Freisy (and Elkis) were exceptionally helpful and provided great breakfasts too. We went out horse riding with them too in their new place near Tenorio national park. A fabulous experience all round. Nada
• Stephanie (8/5): - Wir waren zufrieden,und empfehlen die Unterkunft auf jeden Fall weiter.
• Anna (10/5): Inolvidable y paradisíaca. - Nuestra casa soñada, tienes intimidad i a la vez estas en contacto contacto con la naturaleza. Amplia, muy cómoda y con todo lo necesario. La nevera y el jacuzzi de lujo! La anfitriona, Karina, nos ayudó con todo tipo de trámites, consiguiéndonos precios más ajustados para los parques, y nos resolvió cualquier duda que teníamos sobre el entorno. Elkis también encantadora y atenta, nos preparó unos desayunos deliciosos y nos ayudó en todo lo referente al cuidado de la casa. Deseamos volver algún día. Nos hemos sentido como en casa, mejor! Nada
• Sonja (10/5): -
• Jonas (10/5): Super!! 👍 - Super Unterkunft, nur zu Empfehlen! Gerne wieder! /
• stephanie (10/5): - Petit paradis ! Aucun
• Katherin (10/5): Exceptional -
• Marie-soleil (10/5): Exceptional -
• Willam (6/5): Food needs improvement - The house is very clean, great location, and the place is very nice. Breakfast was terrible, there were 3 adults and they served us just enough coffee for 3 half cups, the sausage was probably the cheapest one they found because it tasted really bad. No fruit, the juice for my children tastes like water.
• Joanne (10/5): Absolutely loved it! Has everything you need. Clean and spacious and a lovely pool & garden area, would definitely r - The whole place was beautiful inside and out
• Sarah (10/5): Unique, wonderful accommodation. - A truly remarkable place, photos don’t do it justice! Sitting on the sofa, or lying in a hammock, while the living ‘wall’ buzzes with life, humming birds, lizards, butterflies, lots of bird species I cannot name; all a few feet away, incredible! The bedroom was huge, good firm mattresses, walk-in wardrobe, large bathroom. The kitchen area was very well equipped, with quality items: amazing American style fridge freezer with very welcome cold water and ice dispenser, full size oven, microwave and all the utensils you could need. Even the washing machine looked brand new and was Samsung. Nothing
• Kay (9/5): Superb - We had a fantastic stay at Home La Fortuna. Thank you so much Karina for your hospitality and all the nice tipps to make the most out of our stay. We definitely enjoyed being your guests.
• Mark (10/5): Exceeded expectations. Lovely safe home with lots of birdlife visitors - These two bedroom holiday home was much better than the pictures suggest. The pool was lovely. The garden full of wildlife. The kitchen very well appointed and equipped. Netflix to use in the evening. And as the name suggests extremely safe. Kari - the owner - was super helpful. Nothing really. This was probably the best Appartment of our Costa Rica Day. It isn't in Fortuna town itself but he's not far away. A short drive.
• Stewart (10/5): Wonderful and charming with amazing hosts . - A lovely pool area with so many different birds ,beautiful flowers and plants. The owners Freisy and Karina are such a lovely couple, they made us feel so welcome and they were so friendly with our girls,Karina is a guide and she took us to a national park ,she was so in tune with nature and told us so much about the animals and the plant life .We can’t recommend this stat enough. Nothing,we had a perfect stay.
• Tamara (10/5): You need to stay here when you are in La Fortuna - Karina and her husband are great hosts! We loved everything about our stay: breakfast was delicious, Pool was heated, apartment was very clean and the garden is great. When you are in la Fortuna: this apartment is a Must ☺️ will definitely come back ♥️ -
• Anthony (10/5): Home from home - Other reviews will tell you about the nice modern house with a full kitchen, the excellent breakfast served on the patio, and a beautiful pool and patio. That's all true. I will say that the best thing about this stay is that the hosts, Karina and Freisy, take the title of "Home" very seriously. They will do everything to make you feel at home, so you will feel sad to leave. Karina is passionate about all wildlife, from frogs to bats and birds. She even found time to accompany us on a night tour, acting as a second (and more knowledgeable) guide, which was amazing! We should have stayed longer...and next time we will!
• Dov (10/5): Wonderful place will be back - Amazing place! 10/10 recommend and I will be back next time I am in town. Great Airbnb with private pool 10-15 minutes from the town so you will need a car. Very easy drive into town and a few close restaurants nearby. Staff was incredible very helpful and always there if you need them. Also breakfast was phenomenal and cooked to order and delivered to your table in backyard that faves pool. extremely clean and comfortable beds. Nothing I didn’t like but if you want to watch TV or have kids that want TV the TV only works with a HDMI cable Connected to laptop. So no apps or way to get cable etc.
• Kari (10/5): Exceptional -
• Lauren (10/5): Pura Vida - We had the sweetest stay. Very easy to work with and find the location. Make sure to download the WhatsApp for communication. Friendly and helpful when we were looking for dinner suggestions and they booked a river raft tour for us. The breakfast was so delicious. Beautiful property with flowers growing everywhere and the pool was lovely. In Costa Rica you are going to sweat and they had a washer and dryer to use. Plenty of towels, blankets, household items. We can't wait to go back and stay again!
• Haas_nl (10/5): Luxerious - Nice luxurious place just outside the busy tourist places. Big pool. Good breakfast. Spacious for 3 persons. Kari really went out of her way to help us. She got us a massage at our private pool! Bed could be larger. USB outlets to charge devices near the bed would be nice, maybe run an extension cord? This was the best stay of our holiday and we had 6 places.
• Janelle (9/5): Superb - The house is very comfortable, especially the swimming pool. The hosts were very helpful, it’s a great place to stay.
• Ariel (9/5): Superb -
• Victor (10/5): Exceptional - The service we got from Freisy and Karina was great. The breakfast was delicious every morning. They advised us on where to go for our delight. My family recommends this place. Thank you, Freisy and Karina! We had a great time!
• Mark (10/5): Exceptional - Freisy and Karin were fabulous hosts. Very helpful in suggesting activities and making our stay comfortable! Truly the cutest couple whom we enjoyed talking with and learning about costa rican fauna. The house was comfortable and spotless. Breakfasts were delicious, we tried them all. Thank you both for making our stay in La Fortuna so fun!
• Rami (10/5): Kind atmosphere and help of hosts, good accommodation for fair price. - Pool is very good for playing with kids, host are kind and helpful giving good recommendations for spending a day in national parks, cacao farms etc. You can see honey bird and toucan here! Everything was good.
• Kathleen (10/5): Best hosts ever! - Friesy and Karina were the kindest, most helpful hosts that we have ever experienced! He helped us with our car rental flat tire and with our excursion details. Karina set our tv up with her computer so we could watch the college football championship. The breakfasts were delivered to us hot and delicious so we could enjoy by the pool. Karina took our clean clothes and dried them for us. Their rental is immaculate and they are the sweetest couple! Friesy told us to call him any time during the remainder of our trip if we need help anywhere in Costa Rico. Everything was perfect!
