This place is amazing and the owners are very sweet and friendly. This was the nicest place I have stayed in costa Rica so far. It's in a non touristy quite part of town.

Big house. Three bedrooms. One with 2 double beds, & aircon. One with 1 double bed and a fan (2 steps down into this room). The final room had 2 single beds (2 steps down into this room). Comfortable beds. Enough room for 8 people to sleep. Remote location good for birds. Nice short private rainforest walks (100% need bug spray before going). There are lots of birds in the area so bring your camera and binoculars! We were told that this used to be a house for scientists / researchers. We found an abandoned pond in the rainforest area, which I think might be cool to visit at night with a red light, but we didn't do this ourselves. Big kitchen with everything we needed and more. Big fridge. Kettle. Lots of cutlery and pots / pans. Two bathrooms. The bathroom with just a toilet had rails, which was incredibly helpful for my mum, who is disabled. The other bathroom didn't have rails for the toilet, but it did have 2x rails in the shower, which again was very helpful for my mum. The only thing that would have made it even better would have been the option of a shower seat. However, this place wasn't advertised as disability friendly, so these were all bonuses for us. There was a washing machine, but we didn't use it, so I'm not sure how well it works. But it was free to use. You'd just need to bring your own detergent. The living room was a nice size with a nice table. There was an additional unnecessary table in the living room that took up space and might have been better out the front. But the seats were more solid so it was useful again for mum. We were given a discount code & website for lots of activities, which was very kind, but we didn't use any as we were on a tight budget, and the coffee tours, etc, were very pricey in the La Fortuna area.

Great place for families with kids. We even got invited to the dinner with Juan - the owner of the property, and his wonderful wife and friends. Plus we also got a free excursion in the sorrounding garden where Juan grows mangos, avocados, blackberries and meny other fruits. Absolutely recommend.

We loved this place it was great for our multi generation family. Even though there are a few lodges it is very well designed and you feel like you're in the jungle
