The apartment was very well cleaned. Beds well made and the towels were folded decoratively with a small flower. The breakfast was excellent.

Beautiful chalet, secluded enough to see monkeys and beautiful birds but close enough to town and to Parque Volcan Tenorio to make it convenient. Hosts were very kind and clearly willing to work on any single detail to make the stay enjoyable (a bottle of rose as a gift upon arrival, games for kids, a full well equipped kitchen... nothing was missing). I highly recommend the place.

This property was definitely a highlight of Costa Rica for us. It is close to town but still feels like you’re immersed in nature. The communal kitchen and laundry means the place feels like home and they’re well appointed. The hosts are incredible and can help you organise and transport or tours you’re interested in. The rooms are so comfortable and luxurious and the price is incredible for what you get!

We enjoyed the apartment so much that we ended up extending our stay for one extra night. Adrian was very welcoming and efficient when I arrived. Then Olga was extremely caring and friendly for the rest of our stay. Both of them gave us lots of tips and helped us with transportation to interesting places and the airport. We found the flat cozy and very clean with lots of attention to detail. It contains everything you need and more for a comfortable stay. The location is quiet in a residential area, but close to Alajuela center.

Great location, very close to airport, restaurant, banking, parks. Jennette was very friendly and helpful. Bathrooms and kitchen were clean and well equipped. The bed was comfortable. I was there to sleep before an early flight and appreciated the quiet homey feel without any loud guests coming in and out.

We really enjoyed our stay at Arenal Descanso. The family hosting us was very nice and helpful and the breakfast was great. Especially, the Gallo pinto :) we loved to sit in the pretty garden watching the birds for the breakfast. Closeby are many restaurants and a river where you can swing into the water using a rope. It's fun!

The location is beautiful. The room was quiet and very comfortable. We were able to keep our car secure at Villa Margarita while we were travelling outside Costa Rica for two weeks. It is excellent value and easy to get to/from the airport. Margarita is an excellent host. We plan to stay again when needed.

We love Villa Pacandé! Recently they actually renovated their units and added on kitchens and kitchenettes in almost every unit! The grounds are beautiful as well and they are absolutely pet friendly (!) which we love as we often travel with our rescue dogs that fly out to Canada or the United States !

We wanted to stay in the city to discover the Arenal Area and we are glad that we have chosen Suwa Villa. It is a new complex with about six rooms. The hotel is not directly visible from the street. The rooms are nicely decorated, clean and had everything that we needed. The accommodation has a washing machine for the guests which is really great. There are plenty of restaurants and coffee shops in 5-10 minutes walk. Parking in front of the hotel. Easy communication with the hosts.

This is a fantastic bungalow that offers great views of volcano Arenal and the lake. The location is great as it is outside of a quiet village and very tranquil. The bungalow is large and conveniently furnished. The owners are very friendly. We enjoyed the daily breakfast on the big terrace of the restaurant. There are several breakfast options and the Costa Rican breakfast was sensational. We would definitely book this place again. There are small shops and restaurants in the surrounding area.

This place was perfect. Great, quiet location about a block or two from the town. The apartment was spacious, well decorated, and had everything we needed. The host Patricia was wonderful and arranged transportation from San Jose for us and also gave us great restaurant recommendations. The place is also very, very clean - the cleaner is excellent. Best vacation rental I have had in a while.

Excellent view, the house is located on top of the village with direct access to a small plantage under the house. . We unfortunately had only a short stay so we have not used the garden much. The owner is super friendly but he speaks only Spanish, so please use Google Translator (the wifi is good).

It was beautifully maintained and clean. It was the perfect size for the five of us. The rooms were spacious and the main shower was spectacular. The path behind the villa was an excellent bonus. It was great to be able to walk down to the water. The location was perfect for restaurants and tours. Ubers were readily available and very inexpensive. Would definitely stay here again.

We loved everything about the Villa Tucan, the room were just wonderful, one of the best showers I've ever been in. The family that owns the hotel are incredibly gracious and so nice to be around. The hotel gardens and pool were just wonderful I can't say enough about what a wonderful place the villas are to have as your base when you're exploring this beautiful area. After one day we felt like we were at home every time we came in through the gate.
