8 / 10Excellent·May 2026
We enjoyed our stay at Encantada Guest House. The communication prior to arrival was helpful, with many practical tips for our vacation in Costa Rica. The location of the guest house is wonderful for doing things in the area, it is very close to both Lake Arenal and Arenal volcano and you can see both from the road next to the house. It is a peaceful spot. We did many activities in the area and enjoyed walks in the morning to see the birds and views. We enjoyed our coffee on the patio while watching howler monkeys and toucans. Overall it was a great start to our vacation. Nita and Marty provide a nice starter basket of food, including bread products, coffee and eggs which was thoughtful.

We loved our stay at the Encantada Guesthouse. There is no way to describe how beautiful the grounds are on the property. The house was spotless. Nita and Marty gave us 6 pages of helpful hints for traveling to the area to prepare us for the trip. That information alone was priceless. We loved every minute at the Guesthouse. We had a wonderful time and we would definitely stay there again if we ever returned to the area. Thank you Nita and Marty for making our stay so memorable! Costa Rica was amazing thank you for sharing your beautiful home and property it was truly amazing!

Enchanting and magical place! Loved all the special host touches. So relaxing! You awaken to the sounds of birds and howler monies each morning then one of the resident dogs come by to greet you! We loved the visits from Mia since we recently lost our beloved dog last month. Communication from Marty and Nita was excellent even though they were out of the country they still arranged our skyline tour which we highly recommend! Would love to come back someday!
