The property had amazing views. The best part was waking up in the morning to the sound of birds and other wild life and having chef prepared breakfast :)
Some reviews did mention the bugs: you're in nature; it's expected and you get used to it and they do have pest control. No AC, but they provided fans and it was comfortable. Place is MUCH larger than the pictures.
Highly recommend hiring James to cook for you!! We had him prepare breakfast daily! He's amazing and it makes getting started with your day easier.
Home has washer & Dryer. Was a life saver on the rainy day adventures we had.
The drive to town or to any attractions is about 30-35 minutes through narrow, windy mountain roads, and it dark at 5:30, so keep that in mind. We were not prepared and I may have selected somewhere closer to 'town' for our first visit to the La Fortuna area in order to explore La Fortuna, which we didn't get a chance to do.
Also, getting up to the home isn't as bad as some reviews said (IMO). It was raining and dark when we arrived; we had a 9 passenger VAN, and while we did struggle for a second, we made it up. It's only the first time up that's a bit daunting. Overall, we were very happy and it was worth it for size of home and VIEWS and I would definitely stay there again and explore the area more.
FYI: There are a few small restaurants just down the main driveway from home as well as a small market, that surprising had everything we needed; even medication.

The host, location and views were all great. Perfect for a large family. Will book again the next time we are in the area.

Our three-day stay at the villa in Costa Rica was fantastic! The location near the lake and volcano offered stunning views, while the surrounding trees and birdlife added to the natural charm. The villa was cozy and comfortable, providing a perfect base for exploring the area. Overall, it was a great experience, and we would love to go back.

At first, we received the wrong check-in instructions. We drove an extra 25 min each way from the house to meet with someone for check-in. On the day of the check-in, the owner sent us another message with the correct instructions and house info, but we were on a road trip that day and the internet was not working everywhere plus I wasn't looking for new instructions when I already received one.
I will not recommend driving there after dark: the road along the lake is veeeery wavy and it is very hard to drive.
The house itself was disappointing.. at first, it is very dirty: dead dry bugs everywhere, dirty dishes (disgusting) and old/used sponge to wash dishes, some dirty bed linens, a lot of bugs (alive) inside, one of the bathrooms: shower without a door - when you take a shower, everything becomes wet. There is no AC. The owner brought fans, but they were very loud, and around 9 am (we were in March) it was already stuffy. All furniture, mattresses and everything are old and the house itself is not taken good care of.
On the good side- the view was amazing, a lot of birds around, very spacious house.
Unfortunately, I wouldn't recommend this place and wouldn't come back.
