Loved it
We stayed here 4/14/24 thru 4/17/24. The home is beautiful, clean, and looks brand new. It was fully furnished with every kitchen appliance and utensil you could possibly need, even a corkscrew. Nice tiled bathroom and plenty of hot water for showers. The full size washer/dryer was a nice bonus as well. Bedroom were good size and the beds were comfortable. Extra towels and linens in the laundry area. You could easily sleep 4-5 people here. Air conditioners in the bedrooms and ceiling fans in all rooms, the whole house cooled off nicely. The home is in Los Angeles, a short drive to La Fortuna and less than 45 mins from Mistico Arenal Hanging Bridges. We had dinner several times in Los Angeles and felt safe in the area. Jose was an amazing host, easy to contact and quick communication with any questions. We would definitely rent this home again, highly recommended.

First trip to Costa Rica
Small but very comfortable with all of the needed appliances and basic equipment. Used the kitchen daily. Grocery restaurants and multiple Paan (baked goodies) shops near but in a neighborhood area that was friendly and quiet at night, at least after 9pm. Jose was great. Very friendly and helpful We had a great trip! Thanks Jose

Wow!!!!
Totally exceeded our expectation, communication with the owner was impeccable. Scarlett Macaws flew over every morning tree frogs at night. I would stay there again without hesitation.

Beautiful place to stay
We all like it. It's a nice house and kids can have their own room. A little isolated but have washer and dryer for washing clothes every day! I personally think it is better than the expensive resort we stayed for the rest of the trip. However, you do need a car to stay here. Unfortunately, renting a car is tricky in costa rica. The car we have is OK but head light is weak. We couldn't see clearly so couldn't drive much after dark.

Outstanding in every way!
Jose was helpful in every direction! He made sure we knew how to locate his home even arriving late! Being a tour guide he assisted us in tours, restaurants, etc. The home was quiet, beautiful location that tucans and & parrots also visited. Located near rain forest and places to see!

The Perfect Stay
Jose is a great host. The house is beautiful and well-appointed. We love staying out of the busy town but being close enough to drive in. Jose showed us around his property and shared his love and knowledge of his country. Highly recommend and would love to go back.

Best Experience Ever
My husband and I only had a few days to get away so we booked our stay with Jose! First of all, the house is ABSOLUTELY beautiful and Jose helped us book all of the activities we did while in Costa Rica. I would book this again in a heart beat and getting to love on Dexter was the cheery on top! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

What an amazing stay!
I can't say enough about our time at Jose's lovely home. The entire experience was so enjoyable and flawless. The house is impeccable and very clean. You have everything that you will need to stay and very well appointed throughout the home. We were so close to everything that we visited while in the La Fortuna area. Jose is a wealth of knowledge and gave us some amazing recommendations in La Fortuna and for our next stop of Monteverde! The property is so nice with plenty of foliage and wildlife. We were so happy that this was our first stop in Costa Rica and was able to experience Pura Vida! Also Jose's dog Dexter is such a sweet and amazing dog and so lovely to have around the proerty! Thanks so much Jose!!!!!

Just stay here!!!!
Do yourself a favor and get out of the hustle and bustle of Tourist Town (La Fortuna) and stay at this gem of a spot. Jose has created an oasis not even ten minutes from the city so you can still enjoy that scene for the day if you want. There are bakery's, pubs and restaurants within a three minute drive of his place, but at the property we saw sloths, multitudes of birds and Dexter the friendliest dog ever. The house was absolutely immaculate and beautiful, and if you want to ACTUALLY experience Costa Rican culture, this is the place to stay.
