About the host
Hosted by Carolina Rico
Our names are Luis and Carolina, we have been together for 20 years, and have 4 kids. We reside in California and run a construction business. Our dream is to retire in La Fortuna in the near future so we bought this house, and made it a home to be loved and enjoyed by vacationers in the meanwhile. It has been quite an experience, we expected to make only some cosmetic changes, but things changed along the way. We ended up fully demolishing and reconstructing the second floor, fully remodeling the first floor while adding square footage, and a carport, and a resort style pool. We have had fun planning and decorating the house to make it warm, welcoming, and unique. We hope you enjoy your stay and make tons of memories.
Why they chose this property
Because of it's location and privacy. It is close to everything but away from everyone. It is only a 5 minute drive to the magical La Fortuna town.
What makes this property unique
Privacy, and accessibility by any type car to the main road that connects to downtown, San Jose and main cities.
