We enjoyed staying at this property , nice proximity to the town. The house suited our needs with three bedrooms. The kitchen had everything you could possibly need. The pool was very pleasant and it was nice to have when we weren’t exploring. The air conditioner in the master bedroom was a little loud for us. The kids didn’t have an issue with their air conditioners.

Perfect for a family vacay in La Fortuna

Casa Turquesa was a wonderful place for our family to stay for our vacation in the La Fortuna area. We felt safe in the gated property. The pool was perfect for the kids. The decor was elegant and charming at the same time. And you can’t beat the location! It’s away from the hustle and bustle of the city bit just a quick 5-minute drive into town. Highly recommend!
