The treehouse was definitely worth the stay.  Even though it had no AC, it wasn't needed.  The temps in the forest were perfect even at night.  The sounds of the forest were amazing to fall asleep too.  Woken to the sounds of toucans more than once.  I would recommend having a car if staying here.  Having a vehicle allowed us the freedom to come and go as needed.  Overall, this was a great place to stay!

A nice property with friendly family running it. They were accommodating with booking excursions for us. Had a nice experience in their treehouse option. Liked that location is outside La Fortuna town (quiet) but close enough to get to activities and dining. Nice panaderia down the road.

Absolutely fantastic! A little further from the city but only a $6 Uber drive to downtown. Well worth to stay away from the crowed and tucked in with nature. Get the tree house, is worth the extra few dollars.

This property was amazing once we found it. It is very hard to find as it is in a neighborhood behind houses, but don't let that discourage you. Im telling you how to get there so you can experience the magic. There is a small grass driveway between houses that leads into the jungle. There is a small wooden sign about knee height that marks the entrance on the right side of the driveway. We spent the night in a gorgeous treehouse with all the modern amentities and a great bed. The sounds of the jungle surrounded you with frogs, flowers, wildlife and rain and so much more. The staff were extremely accomodating and friendly they even come out to the street to help us find the place. Please note that the phone number on expedia for them is wrong, their real phone number can be found on google if you look up the property name. I hope you enjoy this place as much as we did.

We were able to view monkeys right from the deck .Best pasta Bolognese ever !!! They only offered dinner on the weekends when we stayed there Excellent Italian chef

We started our family Costa Rica trip in La Fortuna and decided to stay at Arenal Rustic Lodge. It was a perfect way to start the trip. The lodge is around 15 minutes from town. The family hosts were amazing and incredibly helpful. They offered great advice and were very accommodating. They let my daughters (age 11 and 13) feed the family's horse and they even took us on a hike of a local trail they are starting to develop. We stayed in cabin #5. It had plenty of room for our family of 4. There was a small fridge and fan along with a coffee maker. It was basic but had all we needed. The balcony was a perfect hangout spot to play games and listen to music. A table on the balcony would have been nice along with a few more chairs but we made due. We stayed for 3 nights in April of 2023. We booked all of our tours ahead of time, but the family that runs the lodge was helping other guests with bookings. The lodge is centrally located. Our furthest drive was 30 min to explore hanging bridges. Most activities were within a 15 min drive. The daily "Gallo Pinto" breakfast was a perfect way to start the day. We were able to select our breakfast time every morning which really helped with our daily tours. Our family really enjoyed our stay and would recommend the lodge to other families or couples traveling to La Fortuna.

Wow what a beautiful place. The owner’s are incredibly friendly.They help us when we had a problem with our rental car.

I am staying in 4 different places and so far all of them are good

If you want a quite and peaceful stay in la fortuna this is a very good place. I stayed in the tree house and it was nothing short of amazing. Plenty of privacy and a very unique experience

The property is in the forest, the he cabin is private and very well maintained. The staff is engaging as needed, helpful and friendly. We enjoyed staying here and will book again when in La Fortuna.

Beautiful property in a large forest land. We did self tour of the property during the day andbit was nice. Separate, spread out log cabins. Friendly staff. Good breakfast. We saw a variety of birds hang out by the breakfast area. Three tucans flew by to hang out at a tree top.Issues: 1. the cabins have metal roof for the property that is in the rain forest. I could not sleep most of the nights becaise of the loud sound of rain all night long.2. There wasn't enough doormat or provision to clean muddy shoes/feet prior to entering the cabin. The door mat was so small that it got dirty and unusable right away. It was a messy situation inside the cabin.

Beautiful settings/cabin, loud metal roof in rain

Great way to start our vacation!

The stay at the Garden Lodge was really perfect! Jubenal and his family are so helpful and friendly! It is a little outside of LA Fortuna situated but Jubenal offered us to drive us to the center and picked us also up. The room is really great, it's a small house of wood with a view to a part of a forest. So in the night and the morning you hear the animals living there. Also the breakfast was really tasty with fresh fruits, eggs and toasted bread. I really recommend staying here if you prefer a nice host, a room in quiet location and possibility for visiting various things near La Fortuna!

The hostess here was very friendly and helpful.  I took their night walk and enjoyed a new experience.

Great place to stay

Beautiful cabin. Very clean. Has AC. Awesome view of the jungle. The only reason why i gave it a 4 star is because of the bedding. The bed was not very comfortable. The pillows and sheets were hard. The bed also only had a thin blanket as a cover. You need to bring your own shampoo and conditioner.
