Marianne (zelf ook Nederlands van oorsprong) heeft ons zeer gastvrij verwelkomt. We waren blij verrast met ons verblijf. Behoorlijk ruim, grote bedden,complete keuken, nette badkamer, heerlijke douche! Ligging is prachtig met uitzicht op de Arenal Vulkaan. Marianne heeft ons gezin ook meegenomen om vuurvliegjes te bekijken vlakbij de accommodatie! Dit was echt GEWELDIG! kenden we alleen van tv.. Elke ochtend werd er een ontbijtje gebracht...wat een luxe! Wij voelden ons hier zeer welkom,veilig en kunnen dit echt aanraden als je La Fortuna wilt verkennen! Vergeet ook niet bij Termalitas een dagje door te brengen! Heerlijke hotsprings, bbq staat bij je tafel, dus neem vooral vlees mee! Deze mag je gebruiken. Marianne nogmaals bedankt voor ons geweldige verblijf bij jullie!
