A little bit of Paradise

We wished we had stayed longer. This is a wonderful property, well maintained and the owners are close by. The back yard is beautifully landscaped and offers a full view of the volcano covered deck area and a small pool to cool off in. Beds are comfortable and the house offers everything you could need. La Fortuna is a hidden gem. I have been to CR over 40 times and never made it here. Great restaurants and activities and a wonderful place to relax when the day is over. Highly recomended.

Spacious, very attractive, well equipped

And it was wonderful watching the birds which came to eat the fruit the host provided! The location is very close to downtown, grocery store, and restaurants. There’s a lot of natural wood in the interior, which was lovely. The interior was also bright with color - very warm and welcoming.

Rain Forest Paradise

This is one of our favorite stays. The house had everything we needed with comfortable beds, equipped kitchen and lots of room. The best feature is a fantastic back deck and grounds. The plants and wildlife are amazing. Very well kept. Birds of all types, and the last day some Howler Monkeys showed up nearby. They are a bit noisy, but you are in the rain forest. Friendly hosts live next door. I would suggest getting here in the daylight, as it is a little tricky to get the layout on a rainy night.

Paradise Found

The Howler monkeys called from the front yard every morning. The Great Guans entertained in the back yard along with their exotic companion birds. If you can tear yourself away from the house and property, it is close to town for restaurants. But the kitchen is so well equipped, you could shop for groceries at the nearby grocery and never need to leave the house. When I search for a place to stay, I'm looking for security, cleanliness, 'live-ability', location and comfort. This house hit the jackpot for me. Many thanks to the host for sharing and making a dream trip even better.

Close to everything yet a secluded paradise.

Our family of five (kids ages 7-10) had a wonderful stay! The property is a little slice of paradise, private but just a few minutes from restaurants, La Fortuna Waterfall, chocolate tours, and the rope swing, among other attractions. We saw more wildlife on this property than we did on the tours we paid for - howler monkeys, toucans, lizards, many different birds. Our kids loved the pool and all of the pool toys available. The house has lots of space and conveniences like laundry and a dishwasher. We would definitely return and wished we could have stayed longer.

Hidden Tropical Paradise

This is truly a tropical paradise with warm and welcoming hosts. My husband is a birder and he collected many for his list just from the bedroom deck. The rooms are nicely arranged for a family and the pool is great for a soak after a hot day exploring. We barbecued in the outdoor area which has party lights and speakers as well as a grill. Wonderful stay. We hope to return soon.

Volcano Fun

A lot of construction going on. Despite that the house and property were as described. The yard is just beautiful, and the bird watching was incredible! We saw parrots and toucans! Location to all sites was perfect. If you find yourself in La Fortuna, you must eat at Travesia!!! The food was delicious. 10/10 stay here!

Review of Tropical Paradise

Marco has created a secluded paradise for his guests in a perfect location to explore La Fortuna. The property is beautiful and the home is comfortable and cozy. The host and property appointments were exceptional. We have everything we need plus for a fantastic stay. The home is well situated to access downtown La Fortuna and various adventure tours. We were thrilled with everything about our stay and when we return, this VRBO will be our first stop.

La Fortuna Family Vacay

We had an absolutely wonderful time here! The property is pristine and the location is beautiful! Marco feeds the birds every morning with fresh fruit right in the backyard and we got to see some beautiful birds every morning. My favorite was seeing the pineapples grow in the backyard! Location of this property was also perfect, just a short drive to the center of La Fortuna and great for any excursions. Marco was an excellent host, as well as his daughter, and ensured that we were comfortable and had everything we needed. Couldn't recommend this location more! Thank you for a wonderful stay!

10/10 would recommend

This is the perfect property! The location is amazing. Close to activities and restaurants but also far enough away that it’s quiet. The property is large and feels like you’re directly in the jungle. We travelled with kids aged 7,9,11,14,17. We rented our own vehicle from Liberia, the drive was easy and also beautiful. Marco and Leticia were very welcoming and answered any questions we had. We would definitely come back and highly recommend to others!!

Great spot in La Fortuna

Clean and nice home with a lot of room. The pool is a plunge pull and our kids just loved splashing. The deck is great place to sit and relax as you listen to the birds and monkeys. Beautiful gounds! A/C works well. Only need to be used in the bedrooms at night during the summer months. You can walk to the rope swing and a few spots to eat. Also could walk to town and finds stores and restaurants. We love this area and would defintely rent with Marco again. So many activities in this region loved Sky adventure ziplines, hot springs, rope swing, arenal whitewater rafting (saw several sloths and get lunch), hiking, la fortuna waterfall, the hanging bridges...etc.

La Fortuna paradise

We LOVED our stay in La Fortuna! The property was quiet, private, and comfortable, yet close to town. Each morning we enjoyed watching all the birds eat fresh fruit that Marco put out for them. We were able to see monkeys in the trees by the house, large iguanas, and toucans. What an experience! The house was walking distance to town and the rope swing nearby was awesome! Hanging bridges and Arenal 1968 trail hikes were super fun!

Amazing

We had an amazing stay at the property we were only there 2 nights but we made the most of it, close to town and other attractions. Only about 5 minute drive to waterfall, we got lucky and saw a sloth on way back from waterfall. Did a night hike a few kms away our first night we learned a lot about locating animals and the next night we took the flashlight outside in the backyard of property and walked around and found several frogs on the leaves of the trees in backyard. Monkeys play in the trees in front of house in the evenings. Lots of birds of a morning as Marco (owner) places fruit out for them in back yard. Very clean and spacious property owner is very responsive. Used Waze app to get there and it took us right to property other than when you turn off the highway onto their road it will tell you that you have arrived, property is at the very end of the road about 200 meters just keep going and you will find it. Would absolutely stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Marco Danieletto

Greetings from property owners Marco and his family!
Thank you for checking out our property listing.
My nationality is Italian, born and raised. After years of working in tourism in Venice, Italy I left the business to my family and moved to Costa Rica to open my own Pizza Restaurant.
I managed my restaurant over 20 years and sold it to invest in real estate here in Costa Rica.
The house and big garden area that surrounds it was originally my private home, to which now I’m opening the doors to tourists visiting the area year round and hope that many of you can enjoy.
Along with my family we built a new family home at the entrance of the property, making both properties private but with a sense of being taken care off and secure. As any foreign living experience it’s always nice to have someone close by that you can trust to ask questions or help when needed.
Bookings are done directly with the owner so there is no tourist agency or third party involved to provide our guests a more direct and personal experience.
So far all of our guests leave very happy and pleased with their experience at the Villa.
Looking forward to having you in our place so you can relax surrounded by nature.
Pura Vida
