We had a terrific stay at Casa Del Bosque. The view of the volcano and gardens from the bedroom and porch was incredible. You can hear the river that runs right by the house while sitting on the porch in the morning and evenings. It was a great location to enjoy all the activities around La Fortuna and Arenal Volcano. We did horseback riding, canyoning, tubing, hiking, a cooking class, and visited one of the hot springs - most activities were within 15 minutes of the house and the furthest was only 30 minutes away. Highly recommend this location.

My family had an amazing stay at Casa del Bosque! Pablo was a great host with timely communication and was extremely helpful. The location of the home is ideal and close to town. The home itself is large with plenty of space for everyone, and having multiple bathrooms was great! The washer and dryer also was a great amenity! We can't wait to make another visit!

Great stay. Home new and in nice gated area. Restaurants minutes away. Close to main La Fortuna attractions. Our flight was cancelled so one day late. But the owner said we could stay an extra night for free. We were a group of 6. We recommend this place 100%. Brent from Canada

We recently stayed 4 nights at Casa del Bosque. The house was clean, quiet, and comfortable with plenty of room for our family of five. The house is located in a quiet gated community with private back yard patio and 2 minute walk to the pool. Also walking distance to Restaurante Delicias Tablada which has excellent food at a great price. (Say hi to Sammy, one of the friendliest guys you will meet.). I would recommend this house and stay there again! We loved the place!

Easy to access and very close to downtown La Fortuna. Liked being in a quiet, quaint neighborhood. The property sits next to the river. We had some heavy rain and you could hear the river flowing as well as sounds of the forest. It was nice. Contained everything we needed and was comfortable all around.
