We had a wonderful time at this house. Nice pool and convenient to La Fortuna and surrounding Arenal areas. Plenty of room for our family and we were even able to see the two sloths who live in the property.

Amazing place to stay! Everything was clean, comfortable, and well maintained. Communication was excellent—the host was very responsive and easy to communicate with. The very kind staff showed us around the property and even found sloths for us! The pool was beautiful, and everyone in our family truly enjoyed the stay. Great location, close to all of our tours. We would happily come back.

This was beautiful home near all the activities of La Fortuna and Arenal, yet tucked away for a more peaceful and private setting. We are a family of 5 and enjoyed having our own space to prepare some of our meals, relax in the pool and recoup between activities .

Unfortunately, due to the big snowstorm that came across the United States, we were not able to make our trip. That being said that was no fault of the hosts. They were very gracious and were great in communicating with us. I hope when we get to rebook our Costa Rica vacation, this home is available because I was really looking forward to staying there.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The owners/hosts were available and thorough in all communication. The home was well equipped. The bathrooms were luxurious! We loved the location - close enough to the town of La Fortuna, but far enough away to enjoy the beautiful nature that surrounded us. The maintenance man took us to see 3 sloths on the property and shared some fruit with us that grew there.

AC worked great, the property was immaculate and spacious. The pool received a lot of direct sunlight, making it warm and a favorite among the family. The master suite was comfortable, and we loved the shower in the bathroom. We had minor issues checking in due to Google Maps stopping us one driveway early, and the doorcode instructions were a little confusing the first time. The area is a little remote, but we expected that going into the mountains. There are plenty of grocery options if you are willing to cook food, and some local restaurants, but don't expect a ton of options to eat out. Overall, this was our second-favorite property during our 8-day stay out of 5 properties total.

Beautiful, Clean House, quiet neighborhood

This property was an outstanding stay for us! Two adults, travelling with 1 adult child. Clean, well kept, modern build house, with a spectacular pool/waterfall and a well manicured yard. This property is a great place off the beaten path but close to everything. We would definitely come back!

This house was amazing and fit our family of 5 perfectly! Everyone had their own space and slept great. The patio was perfect to relax, eat a meal and watch the kids swim (even in the rain). The kitchen was great for cooking in on the nights we were too tired to go out. The property is beautiful and has two sloths living there (the owner pointed them out to us multiple times) and my kids even named one of them. It was a perfect location and very quiet but also located close to numerous activities. We were very sad to leave. Thank you for an amazing trip.

Best stay in Lafortuna

Arnaldo has one of the best properties you’ll find in Costa Rica. A gated property with fully furnished homes, heated pools & sloths on property. Every morning was a delight to wake up to see Toucans & macaws floating around & that early morning coolness. Wonderful stay!!

Great home. It's one of those places that you instantly start thinking about when you might return there again. We came with kids this time but the house is so nice and with 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms we thought it would be perfect to return with a group of friends. The pool was great and we spent a lot of time in it. We also saw 3 different sloths right there on the property. This was by far the nicest and best equipped home we stayed at during our trip.
