Fell Well Short of Expectations - More Like Glamping than a House

Cons: The entire house flooded with an inch of water after a heavy rain. Water flowed up the bathroom drain spreading dirt and grime throughout. There were a lot of ants in the living room and some other small bugs crawling all over the ki

Love the pool

Great place to stay, kitchen was stocked nicely! The house was also very clean! We enjoyed the beautiful pool. It’s in a nice quiet neighborhood. It is a little further from La Fortuna so just be aware that you will need to drive about 15-20 minutes into town and back. We didn’t mind the drive at all. It’s surrounded by many cool things to do and see! The outdoor furniture wasn’t super comfy but we still very much enjoyed the outdoor area. The beds weren’t super comfy either (maybe with a little better pillows.) Loved the pond with all the birds and iguanas. The peacock was also fun to watch and listen to.

Excellent!

The house was great. Spent a lot of time in the pool. Everything was very clean. About a 20min drive into La Fortuna. The property is located right beside a pond full of beautiful ducks and geese. One of the neighbours even had Peafowl who loved to wander into our yard. House had 3 full bedrooms.

Reconsider your stay here. Its a dirty place with no owner accountability

I condensed this note to fit here that was sent to the owners. In the past 3 weeks have not acknowledged our issues or concerns. If you want the full transcript let me know. There are nicer cleaner places in the area. Do not get caught like we have been. There was no dish soap. The house rules sheet was also very sticky and the sugar has some kind of critters in it. There was no extra toilet paper left (the rolls were basically empty upon arrival in both bathrooms) So I have personally expensed $$ for toilet paper Your pool turned my blonde haired daughter hair green and has had to take multiple showers to try and do something with her GREEN hair. You have a copper issue in the pool The pool is also dirty, it’s apparent it is not cleaned often or well due to the algae that is visible in many areas within the pool. BBQ grill is rusted which, there is no fuel/wood to bbq or any bbq utensils (note - in your utensils bin are some dirty utensils). Lastly, and this is unfortunately extremely gross, seriously. The bathroom between the three bedrooms just reeks of urine. Went in there my self and its over powering. There was urine and pubic hairs on the toilet and seat. Not acceptable. Obviously it was never cleaned. The level of overall cleanliness is lacking. The cookware and utensils were dirty and pealing.

Beautiful property

We loved the property, it was beautiful and spacious. The WiFi was a little touch and go and it was at least 20 minutes to get into la Fortuna. We would definitely recommend, but just be aware you will be doing a lot of back and forth driving to get into town and the nearby activities.

Great Location! Close to La Fortuna

Great place with lots of beds! The outdoor yard is AMAZING! Looked pretty clean at first, but was not super clean. Had an issue with the toilet, but I think that was our fault. whoops! They came and fixed it quickly! We were in the pool almost every night. it was cool and felt GREAT!

Nice getaway

We had many activities plan in la fortuna. This was close enough that we could get there easily, yet in a smaller town. We went to the local soda for breakfast and another for ice cream each evening. Everyone was super friendly and we enjoyed the whole trip.
