Mayoli Hill Deluxe Farmhouse

4.98 out of 5 average rating, 66 reviews3 weeks ago

We had a great stay at Oscar’s home. We were two families with teenagers and the home accommodated all 9 of us very comfortably. The beds were very comfortable and the air conditioning worked very well. It was great to have a pool and we found it nice to come back to the great views in the country after a busy day of site seeing. We would definitely recommend this spot to others.

Quaint & welcoming Arenal escape

5 out of 5 average rating, 47 reviews4 days ago

We could not have asked for better hosts for our first few nights in Costa Rica. Ivette and Javier greeted us with fresh coconuts on our arrival and showed us our accommodation and the property. We instantly felt right at home. They were gracious hosts, and provided us with some excellent restaurant recommendations and went as far as to book our reservations for us. Javier’s baked goods and fruit in the mornings were absolutely delicious. The space was clean and had everything we needed, and although the property is shared, it was quiet, peaceful, and absolutely stunning! We would love the opportunity to stay here again!

Cabañita Litos 2

5 out of 5 average rating, 6 reviews3 months ago

Magnifique appartement super bien situé. Le nettoyage était impeccable! Les extérieurs étaient exceptionnels, juste à côté de la forêt. On pouvait voir plusieurs beaux oiseau. La cuisine était très bien équipée, ce qui est très pratique quand on y demeure quelques jours. Il faut seulement être conscient que comme c’est un revêtement de vous, quand il pleut beaucoup, il peut s’en dégager un odeur particulière mais on s’habitue rapidement. Les hôtes ont été très gentils et accueillants !

We loved our stay right next to the lake. Beautiful views, garden with a sloth we saw in the trees. Fabulous breakfast cooked for us and delivered to our cabin, where we sat outside and enjoyed a peaceful breakfast looking over nature. Children loved the pool. We could easily have stayed more than 1 night if we had more time. Found a lovely bar nearby with fantastic views . Thank you for having us!

Spectacular Views! 3 Primary Suites & Hot Tub!

5 out of 5 average rating, 16 reviews3 weeks ago

Tanyia & Rod were so wonderful! They were both so responsive and helpful. The house was perfect for a family of 4, and everything was comfortable. The location was great, and it was amazing to wake up to all the wildlife and scenery. There's a community pool in walking distance, and the club serves up an excellent breakfast (extra cost). I had Tanyia get us some groceries before we arrived, which was so helpful when you're traveling with kids. Restaurants and things to do are very close. Just make sure you use Google Maps! Thank you both for an excellent experience :)
