Guest Reviews
- frederic (8/5): Séjour Très agréable - Beau jardin,belle vue sur le volcan et pas très loin de la cascade. Bon petit déjeuner. Cette nuit là les chiens ont beaucoup aboyé.
- Francesca (8/5): Pura vida 🌺🌿🦥🐸 - Il giardino meraviglioso, camera spaziosa con tutto il necessario, i cagnolini giocherelloni, la signora e il signore molto gentili
- Linghui (8/5): Beautiful, please if you’re on the budget. Close to waterfalls in the Hot Springs. - Simple beautiful place if you’re on the budget, beautiful gardens, and views. People live on the property use the common kitchen, talking loud.
- Britta (7/5): Basic cabinas with stunning view in nice garden - Beautifully garden with stunning views at the volcano, very quiet. Out of the town. Nice breakfast. Very basic Cabinas, towels are not out of cotton but microfaser, water basin very small. No cleaning service. No lights for reading.
- Oliver (10/5): -
- Annika (10/5): Paradise. - It’s like you’ve arrived in paradise. The property has a beautiful garden with views of Arenal volcano. It’s away from town, so it’s quiet, and you can hear the birds singing. The only problem was that it was a bit far from everything else, but that had its own advantages, too.
- Mark Wilgar (10/5): - Wonderful peaceful location away from the tourist strip. Lovely family too. Stunning views and proximity to wildlife. A truly memorable stay. Nil.
- Zamora (1/5): - No pude hispedarme porque tuvimos incovenientes com el pago ya que solo aceptaba efectivo y cuando intente hacerlo con tarjeta me envió a un supermercado con un conocido de el que me dijo wheel valor era mas de lo que habíamos acordado, posterior intente comentatselo y me respondió con malas formas
- Lavaud (7/5): - La vue sur le volcan, le joli jardin, le chant des oiseaux au réveil Le propriétaire aurait pu faire un geste commercial quand nous nous sommes trouvés obligé d'annuler la quatrième nuit réservée et payée...9
- Louisa (7/5): - Unser Aufenthalt war sehr schön, vorallem die Außenanlage und das Personal waren sehr gut.
Felix hat 5 kleinere Hunde, die sehr verspielt sind. Die Gastgeber nehmen allgemein diesbezüglich sehr Rücksicht auf die Gäste. Wir fanden es sehr süß mit den Hunden.
Der Blick auf den Vulkan ist sehr schön! Jedoch ist man etwas außerhalb von La Fortuna (mit Auto oder Uber kein Problem) und man muss auch mit einigen Kleintieren rechnen. Das Bad roch ein wenig muffig und der Kühlschrank könnte etwas sauberer sein.
- Gary (9/5): A very peaceful and convenient place to stay with beautiful surroundings. - The property is surrounded by flowers & trees, and many birds and geckos. There is a beautiful view of Arenal, and a nice covered porch with chairs and hammock to enjoy it from. La Fortuna waterfall is an easy walk, with good birding along the way. The communal kitchen was very complete and convenient. The breakfasts were good!
- Karina (9/5): -
- Fabian (9/5): -
- Chantal (9/5): - The lodge was absolutely wonderful.
Felix rents out a few rooms on his property, each with a private bathroom. There’s no air conditioning, but the two fans in our room were more than enough to keep us comfortable through the night. We also had a small fridge, which turned out to be really useful.
If you’re looking for luxury, this isn’t the place — the mattress wasn’t the best, and we did have a few uninvited visitors (ants). But honestly, I still loved it. There were also some very welcome visitors (dogs and birds), and the surroundings were truly stunning. Breakfast was delicious, and we had everything we needed.
We’d happily come back! I hadn’t noticed beforehand that payment is cash only — so make sure to bring some money with you. Also, without a car the place might feel a bit remote.
- Ainara (9/5): - Este lugar es excepcional. Las vistas son increíbles , el jardín es precioso y la atención del personal es excelente. Además tienen unos perritos y gatitos súper simpáticos. Ha sido una estancia inolvidable. Nada
- Gandhi (8/5): - Tiene muy buena ubicación, la vista es espectacular.!!! El lugar es sencillo pero cuenta con lo indispensable
- Vahid (6/5): - Hot water Breakfast wasn't good.
Beds were not comfortable.
Shampoo wasn't provided.
- Saskia (7/5): perfekt für Naturliebhaber - Paradiesische Lage an Fuß des Vulkans El Arenal inmitten eines prachtvollen Gartens mit vielen Kolibris, Schmetterlingen und anderen Tieren. Unbedingt empfehlenswert für Naturliebhaber Äußerst einfache Unterkunft, sehr laute Mopeds in der Nacht
- Pierre (9/5): Vue exceptionnelle sur le volcan Arénal - Petite cabine située en face du volcan Arenal. La vue est exceptionnelle. L'environnement est serein. C'est un endroit parfait pour ceux qui recherchent le calme et la tranquillité.
- Jeremie (10/5): “Un lugar para volver sin duda” - Todo fue excelente. Desde la amabilidad y cercanía de los dueños, que realmente hacen sentir como en casa, hasta las instalaciones, que están muy bien cuidadas, limpias y en un entorno natural increíble. Se nota la dedicación en cada detalle. Sin duda, una experiencia muy recomendable No tengo observaciones negativas, la experiencia fue completamente satisfactoria.
- Maria Luisa (10/5): -
- Lorena (10/5): - El lugar es alejado de los ruidos. Mucha
naturaleza. Hay mucha vegetación, muchas aves. Está cerca de la cascada la fortuna. Tiene desayuno incluído. Lugar limpio.
Los dueños súper amables.
Genial para los que buscan disfrutar en plena naturaleza.
Vista al volcán. Cuando estuvimos no se vio porque estaba nublado. Solo la base del mismo. Son cabañas pegadas por lo que los ruidos de la cabaña vecina se escuchan bastante. Los colchones no están muy buenos. Y el baño no tiene agua caliente.
- Christian (9/5): - - super Lage etwas abseits der Stadt, aber dennoch schnell erreichbar
- sehr ruhig, mega Blick auf den Vulkan
- sehr naturbelassenes Grundstück
- Māris (10/5): -
- Denise (10/5): -
- camilla (8/5): -
- Peggy (9/5): - Sehr schöner Garten, direkt am Fuß des Vulkans. Landestypisches Frühstück war sehr liebevoll zubereitet. Man kann aber auch anders wählen. Nichts.
- fiona (10/5): -
- Jerry (9/5): -
- Ursachi (8/5): - Locatia este in natura, aproape de cascada si de Arenal, este liniste si sunt multe pasari si animale. Micul dejun a fost cam modest.
- Irmgard l (10/5): Very friendly people. Marlene really makes you feel welcome. Met owner Tio. Takes a lot of pride in his property. - Beautiful grounds lush gardens , peaceful setting ,perfect view of Arenal volcano. Woken up by many beautiful birds. Nice clean rooms with thoughtful details like hooks for clothing and shelves. Really nothing may be acces to hot water to make cup of tea
- Claudia (7/5): -
- Jacquemot (9/5): Amazing - It is a beautiful place with an amazing view on the volcano from our room. The local breakfast was really good and the garden is charming. I highly recommend this place !! The matress is not comfortable anymore
- Valérie (8/5): Bel endroit - Le lieu charmant en dehors de la ville, face au volcan (qu'à la faveur d'une météo très pluvieuse, nous n'avons pu voir).
Très joli cadre à 1km de la cascade.
Joli logement très bien équipé. Accueil un peu froid. Logement mitoyen avec des voisins très bruyants.
En payant en espèces comme exigé et en monnaie locale, notre note a été augmentée d'environ 6-7 euros pour 3 nuits. Le petit déjeuner était compris mais nous n'avons pu le prendre qu'une fois car les deux matins suivants, nous partions avant 7h et il n'était servi qu'à partir de 7h. On ne nous a pas proposé de nous donner ne serait-ce qu'une banane en compensation. Le prix du séjour est resté inchangé (ce que je peux comprendre).
- Franziska (9/5): Tolle Unterkunft - Die Unterkunft ist wirklich toll und idyllisch. Wir konnten zwar in den drei Tagen keinen Vulkan sehen, dafür jede Menge Vögel vom Zimmer/ Terrasse aus beobachten. Die Zimmer sind super sauber und groß. Es ist kein Luxus aber für den Preis echt toll. Den Wasserfall erreicht man innerhalb 15 min zu Fuß. Es ist super ruhig Die Küche hätte etwas mehr Ausstattung benötigt. Sonst alles fein
- Susann (6/5): Preis-Leistung in Hochsaison passt nicht - Das Gelände ist sehr schön, die Lodges haben jeweils eine nette Terrasse mit Hängematte, viele Vögel auf dem Grundstück, inklusive Kolibris. Die Lodges sind recht rudimentär eingerichtet, das Preis-Leistungs-Verbältnis passte absolut nicht. Wir haben in der Hochsaison etwa 147 Dollar für eine Nacht mit 3 Personen gezahlt, was im Vergleich etwa um den Faktor 2 zu hoch ist.
- jean philippe (9/5): - Tout. Merci Ras
- Julie (9/5): For the daily price, this place is amazing! - So close to the La Fortuna waterfall, very quiet and pretty, free parking, free breakfast, and comfortable beds. The hostess was very sweet and makes you feel welcome. Mini fridge in the room, plenty of electrical outlets, beautiful gardens and well kept facilities. The view of the volcano is also beautiful! The room did not have hot water. The sink and shower were pool temperature cool. Not a huge ordeal, but I just wasn’t expecting that.
- patrick (6/5): Decevant - Le jardin Pas de réception donc pas de service. Confort minimum. Panne de douche. Petit déjeuner mediocre.
Cher pour ce niveau.
- Anne (10/5): Perfekt - Vidunderligt roligt, hyggeligt og charmerende Hundene
- Alois (6/5): - Dürftiges Frühstück. Schwierige Kommunikation mit dem Vermieter. Kein Mosquitonetz
- Mudráková (10/5): -
- John (8/5): - A short drive out of the city but great location with friendly staff.
Very close to La Fortuna waterfall.
The great view from the unit was across farmland to the hills below Arenal.
A nice bonus was there were lots of birds to photograph and the view of Arenal would be very nice if the weather was better. The one room, with washroom, was a bit tight for our family of three adults.
The walls are made of wood planks so there were some gaps, but the rain and bugs did stay on the outside so it wasn't really an issue.
No soundproofing between adjoining units meant there wasn't much privacy when having conversations.
- Ivano (9/5): -
- Alvarez (9/5): - La ubicación, la naturaleza alrededor, las vistas al volcán. El desayuno y la calidad de las personas que nos atendieron
- Laure Maze (9/5): - Un si belle endroit, au calme, un jardin exotique extraordinaire avec vu sur le Volcan !
Nous avons même assisté et participé à la traite des vaches !
Petit déjeuner extra ! Accès à la cuisine commune pour les autres repas si besoin et petit frigo dans la chambre.
- Aditya (9/5): - The tía was the best
- LAURIE (9/5): - Beautiful setting, great breakfast, quiet location.
- Ryan (10/5): Wohlfühlort in La Fortuna mit top Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis - Wunderschöner Garten mit Blick auf den Vulkan - Melanie war super freundlich, herzlich und hilfsbereit. n/a
- Giler (8/5): - הנוף לטבע היה מושלם, המארחים היו נחמדים ומקסימים. ארוחת בוקר טובה והכי חשוב המחיר מאד משתלם.
- CAMILA (10/5): Excelente custo benefício num refúgio de paz - Um verdadeiro refúgio na natureza! A pousada é aconchegante, muito bem cuidada e cheia de detalhes feitos com carinho. As paisagens são lindas e convidam a relaxar e aproveitar cada momento.
O café da manhã é simples, honesto e perfeito para o viajante: tudo que você precisa para começar bem o dia.
A Melanie é uma graça — super prestativa e ótima companhia, merece um agradecimento especial. E o Tio Felix é extremamente simpático, fazendo com que todos se sintam em casa.
Além disso, a pousada fica perto da cidade, oferecendo praticidade sem perder o clima de paz e contato com a natureza.
Em resumo: um local muito especial que vamos lembrar com muito carinho! 💚
- Kendry (10/5): - El lugar como tal nos gusto y la atención.
- Ridvan (10/5): - great people and you are in nature we eat frogs from the tree and feed the caws it was worth the money we paid
- Toni (10/5): -
- Janire (10/5): Vistas al volcán - Las vistas al volcán son tal cual dicen en el anuncio, el jardín es lo mejor del lugar, se pueden ver muchas aves.
La catarata de la fortuna está a 15 min andando.
Durante el desayuno estuvimos hablando con él y nos recomendó ir al Parque Ecológico del cual no sabíamos nada y fue un acierto. Además, nos guardaron las maletas después del check out para que fuéramos al parque sin preocupaciones.
Un alojamiento muy tranquilo y muy recomendable, repetiríamos sin duda
- Inke (6/5): Weder wirklich 'Eco' noch 'Lodge' aber sehr schöner Garten. - Die Unterkünfte sind eher Zimmer mit einer Veranda als eine 'Lodge', auch 'Eco' ist daran nur die Lage etwas außerhalb in einem Garten. Der ist allerdings super schön und man kann viele Vögel beobachten - sogar Kolibris! Das Frühstück ist eher einfach. Zum Wasserfall kommt man zu Fuß in ca 15 Minuten. Die blinkenden Lichterketten (zum Glück vom Zimmer aus nicht zu sehen) und ein laufender Fernseher beim Frühstück sind nicht so mein Fall.
- Milton (10/5): -
- Jessica (8/5): Tranquilidad y amabilidad - Las vistas al volcán y la amabilidad del tio felix, hasta nos dejó ordeñar sus vacas!
- Nat (10/5): Exceptional - Breakfast was a good topical one. The view from the volcano is amazing and the hot shower 🚿 in private room is the best. Thanks The wifi is very weak, it would be nice to have a stronger signal.
- Sophie (10/5): Beautiful, peaceful location - Lovely location at foot of volcano - beautiful grounds, lovely wooden cabin. Good shower.
Welcoming hostess
- Anonymous (7/5): Overall was good after I got another room farther away from the road - Great The noise at the room from the road was really bad
- Joanna (8/5): Peaceful garden option - Amazing location. Stunning garden. Very peaceful. Comfortable bed. Basic accommodation but fully functioning.
- Oliver (10/5): Exceptional - The gardens are really beautiful and you can see lots of birds, which is lovely. The breakfast in the morning is exceptional and really filling. Close to all the main spots.
- Leena (9/5): Superb - The lodge is located at a perfect place- away from the crowds but so close to nature. Loved waking up to the sounds of the birds, rain, or thunder. There's a really nice place nearby to buy fresh coconut water and cane juice. The pets at the property are cute- the cat has mind of its own. The facilities are good as I prefer simplicity and it connects you to nature. The volcano view is amazing. The breakfast is also good and the lady who makes breakfast is very nice. Overall, I would recommend this place. Nothing flashy but only simplicity.
- Victoria (8/5): Very good - The location is unbeatable! You wake up with the volcano outside your window!
The owner super friendly and she makes you your breakfast!
Very close to la Fortuna waterfall (walking distance) and we were basically alone there (during rainy season) which was very quite and nice. It gets a bit hot in the room and there is no airconditioning. We had two fans in the room which saved us and as soon as it rained the temperature was fine.
Some ants in the room…do not leave trash in the trashcan
- Giovany (10/5): Exceptional -
- Everardo (8/5): Good place to stay - Perfect little place to stay next to nature Only bad thing was no ac on rooms and it get pretty humid during the day
- Andrew (7/5): Good - Breakfast was very good and on time, the garden/environment were beautiful, and the view of the volcano when it was clear was stunning. There were some small problems with the room - the lights/fans temporarily did not work, and the bathroom did not smell good
Maintenance was prompt in fixing the electrical problems!
- Tinh (8/5): Good rustic place for a few nights - My Arenal was right in our face; it was magnificent. The lodging was rustic, but met our needs. We did not have a car and Uber everywhere. No restaurants nearby; but Uber was cheap. Breakfast was a little light.
- Jose (10/5): Good Stay. Good Breakfast. - Nice place! Sweet family. Amazing View. Nothing.
- Ivan (10/5): 10/10 - Great Nothing
- Anna (8/5): Very good - The host was very welcoming, the breakfast was very good (best fresh fruits ever!), sounds of the multitude of birds in the morning was out of this world beautiful, and the view of the volcano and the tropical garden surrounding the property were fantastic. The property is older, the rooms are small, but have the main basics. The views, the birds, and the local beauty make up for lack of luxury. I would suggest adding a more clear sign that is lit at night at the entry, we arrived in late evening and missed the gate the first time.
- Alexander (8/5): Great views and clean, comfortable cabins for the price!! - Excellent location with virtually unobstructed views of Arenal volcano. The grounds are well maintained with a relaxing atmosphere. The breakfast that is included was good as well. The bed was comfortable enough for a 2 night stay.
Easy parking available onsite. Everything seems to be well organized and good WiFi signal. Close by restaurants, 8 min drive to downtown and 3 min drive to Fortuna waterfall.
As others have mentioned, the cabins are rustic but have what’s needed for comfortable stay. No TV if it matters to anyone, didn’t for us.
The refrigerator is a big plus too. The drawback is it’s not too far from main road leading to Fortuna waterfall so you’ll hear some car traffic. We did have ants when we checked in but they immediately took care of it when notified.
- Newton (9/5): Superb -
- Lola (9/5): Great stay in a lovely place with a magical yard - Tio Félix is very friendly, the location is perfect and the views of volcano arenal exceptional. The yard is splendid and well taken care of. Breakfast was good and we could even choose the time we wanted breakfast. Owners put bananas in the yard and it's super easy to look at all the birds!
- Alice (7/5): I enjoyed my stay. I loved hearing the birds, the breakfast was filling, and staff were friendly. However, I would have - You are surrounded by nature in a lovely room I couldn’t find staff outside of breakfast time for support around taxis and things to do
- Naud (7/5): Good -
- Julie (9/5): Beautiful place with perfect volcano view. - The gardens are lovely and the Volcano is right outside the door. Tons of birds to watch. Big porch with rocking chairs to relax in. We had a few ants come to our room one night. But- that is what happens in the rainforest.
- Flora (10/5): Exceptional - The staff was very nice and caring, the traditional breakfast was great, the garden was amazing, the room comfy, friendly animals everywhere and the view was breathtaking. An extra blanket would be nice
- Ozgur (9/5): Superb -
- Soraya (9/5): Cozy lodge - Cozy lodge on the countryside. It's a small family run lodge with few bungalows. Room was clean and comfortable and came with a nice breakfast. It's about 30min walk or a short Uber ride (3$) away from the city. The waterfall is in walking distance
- Andra (10/5): A peaceful stay at the base of the volcano. - The cabin is well set up and very clean. We were comfortable and very relaxed. The gardens around the cabins are beautiful with so many interesting birds.
The breakfast was delicious and hearty. You do need a car to go to and from the property.
- Ivi (10/5): Best place to stay in Arenal - The location, the owners, Tio Félix is the best hugger :) Beautiful garden and toucans visit the garden. Amazing traditional breakfast as well. Nothing we did not like :)
- Gordon (10/5): Exceptional -
- Peter (10/5): Great location, great breakfast and so many birds! - The lodge was in a great spot just outside of town. It was a perfect retreat from the hustle and bustle of La Fortuna, with so many birds! The breakfast was massive and delicious and the host was amazingly kind. Would recommend to anyone who has a car and is looking for places to stay in La Fortuna. It also had the best pillow I've slept on in weeks!
- Graham (8/5): Very good - Beautiful to see tropical birds right outside each morning. We loved the morning chorus.
Loved all the many flowers.
Fireflies and cicadas to enjoy at night.
It is an easy 30 min walk uphill to a gorgeous waterfall and neighbouring trail network. Downhill are restaurants, gardens, and more trails.
I liked being away from town with reduced traffic noise. The wall beside the bed has a rough texture and woke me up alot.
The curtains are thin and we needed to unscrew the light bulb to sleep. We were up with early morning light every day because of all the light in the place.
Accommodations are adjoining and at times it was hard to sleep for long with the noise of neighbours babies crying.
- Shelley (7/5): Good - Welcoming family, lovely surroundings, beautiful well-kept gardens.
- Klem (10/5): Anyone traveling to this area of Costa Rica needs to book a stay at this place. - Wonderful place to stay. The owners were fantastic. Would for sure stay again. Nothing could of been better!
- Aleksandra (10/5): Exceptional -
- Karan (10/5): Beautifully landscaped, has farm animals and lots of colorful birds to spot, clean but nothing fancy - Amazing location, great unobstructed view of Arenal Volcano. Staff was very friendly. We even milked cows at the farm. It was amazing to wake up to the sound of birds chirping. (The owner puts food for the birds in the morning and you're able to spot 7-8 species of birds). You get a good option of continental or typical(Costa Rican) breakfast prepared fresh. A lot of flora and fauna around with good nature vibe. The rooms are not fancy, but very clean. We travelled in December and did not need air conditioning at all. Credit card not accepted. Owner did not know English, but it was not a hurdle in the overall stay as both of us used Google translate.
- Lieve (5/5): Good location. Good value for money. - Quiet yet close to town. We were lucky to catch a brief glimpse of the volcano from the property (before the clouds took over for the rest of our stay 😕). On clear days the view here must definitely be spectacular. Well maintained garden. Wifi was good. No bedside table, no reading light. communication in English poor so hard for us to connect with owners since our Spanish is very limited 😬
- Jerry (10/5): Loved it - Outside of chaotic La Fortuna is this beautiful place with nature all around. Lot if amazing birds and very friendly staff.
- Farrell (10/5): Fantastic view of the volcano, great breakfast, clean rooms, and friendly service. - Loved the location, view, breakfast, and friendly service.
- Ronny (10/5): Friendly Staff - Quiet location, good hotshower, nice garden, we saw toucans in the threes in front of our room, n/a
- Siple (10/5): Peaceful location with amazingly friendly staff! Great for female or solo travelers! - Beautiful property with the best views. So peaceful and a great location close to La fortuna falls!
- Daniel (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ballo (9/5): Superb -
- Terrice (10/5): It was amazing and will refer many clients to this location. - The breakfast was served hot and delicious. The family was very nice, super friendly. The puppy was super cute and wanted to take it home 😍
- Daniel (8/5): Very good - The nature and the garden are very beautiful
The breakfast was delicious.
- Christine (7/5): Good - Friendly staff. Nice outside and communal area with football goals in garden. Good breakfast.
