Good, clean, safe location for launching into the many outdoor activities in the area.
We had a good overall stay at this home in Fortuna. The house was very clean and well-maintained, which made it comfortable and easy to settle in. The location was excellent and very close to everything we wanted to do, which was a big plus.
Communication was a little slow at times, and receiving the Wi-Fi information, entry code, and house instructions felt slightly unclear and delayed. However, we were still able to access everything we needed.
We didn’t get a chance to use the pool since it wasn’t heated and the weather was rainy during our stay.
Overall, the home was clean, in a great location, and provided a pleasant stay.

Our stay in La Fortuna was great! We had some trouble contacting the host about check in, but otherwise Alejandro was very helpful.
