Welcome to your mountain retreat. This private house combines comfort, nature, and total tranquility, ideal for families, couples, or groups looking to relax away from the noise, yet close to La Fortuna and Arenal’s main attractions.
Wake up to birdsong, spend an afternoon in the pool surrounded by greenery, or unwind on the terrace with a panoramic mountain view.
What makes this property unique: spectacular mountain and rainforest views from the terrace and outdoor areas; a private pool with a wooden deck and sun loungers; large, colorful gardens with trails and tropical flowers; a spacious two-story house with air-conditioned bedrooms, an equipped kitchen, a large living room, and a terrace with bar seating; a hand-painted tropical mural unique to this stay; and secure on-site parking.
Location: a short drive from La Fortuna Waterfall, Arenal Volcano National Park, hot springs, Lake Arenal, and local restaurants and supermarkets.
Guests have private access to the entire property: full house, pool, gardens, terrace, social areas, and on-site parking – nothing is shared. Check-in is simple and independent; the host is available for any questions during the stay.
The property is surrounded by nature – at night, insects may be attracted to the lights, so keeping doors and windows closed is recommended.

Honestly this has been one of my favorite stays ever. The property is jaw dropping gorgeous. Gabriel and cohosts are extremely responsive and helpful. Everything was very clean and had everything we needed, extra towels, AC, washer and dryer. The open balcony was perfect for bird watching in the mornings. I will say the drive to “main street” La Fortuna is a bit far (35-ish mins) but we didn’t mind at all! The drive is beautiful and absolutely worth staying a bit further to experience this beautiful place!

We had such a wonderful stay! The property was truly special — the pool was perfect for relaxing, and the treehouse made the experience feel magical, especially for the kids. One of our favorite parts was being surrounded by nature; we saw so many birds, along with lizards and frogs, which my kids absolutely loved. It felt like a little adventure every day. Highly recommend for families looking to enjoy wildlife and a unique, peaceful setting!

10/10 would recommend to anyone wanting to stay near La Fortuna. This place was so beautiful and peaceful. The wildlife was amazing. We saw a sloth right down the road and birds were always at the feeder by the pool! Our second day we were fortunate enough to see multiple toucans.
Helpful ReviewThe kitchen has everything we needed to prepare meals. It came with coffee, sugar and salt. The rooms have air conditioning to keep you cool at night. We felt very safe and secure with the gated property. The host was very responsive.
The city of La Fortuna was only 36 minutes away which was very convenient. There were a lot of activities within 1 hr of the house like ATV, horse riding, zip lines and more. Not to mention all of the amazing restaurants. We would definitely stay again!
