Villa del Encanto - Two cozy cottages with amazing Arenal Volcano view

Great location, walkable to a good restaurant and several other things. Liked being in a secure gated community. Host was responsive to any questions. Pool was beautiful even if it was too cool to use during our stay. It was nice to have some supplies like coffee, salt, shampoo to get started. While they had papertowels, no kitchen towels, which felt a little wasteful. The kitchen is stocked with some basics but you probably wont be cooking dinner at the units. Was fine for us to make breakfast and snacks. We had some issues with showers, may need new shower heads as shower sprays out of shower, even sprays through the curtain. Overall a fine fit for our group of 6 ladies and budget friendly.

We enjoyed our stay! The pool and surrounding patio were great for relaxing and the outdoor area behind was wonderful for bird watching and yoga. We didn't cook much, but appreciated the coffee maker, refrigerators and access to dishes. The road leading up to the property turn in is very rough, so be prepared for that. Also, a house has been built across the street that now obstructs the volcano view, but walking just a short distance, you can get a beautiful view.Our host was very helpful and responsive. He even suggested a driver for us! We would definitely stay again!

Love this property and the best part is location… Outside area and pool was amazing.

Great home for larger families! Pool is wonderful for the kids. Location is perfect for tours and in a gated community.

Property was just what we needed for our family group of 13 traveling to La Fortuna for a few days. There was plenty of space to spread out, the pool was fantastic (when it wasn't raining), and the neighborhood felt secure and safe with easy access back into town and all attractions.

The place was perfect location for our stay. However, wish there were at least some wash clothes and more then two hand towels. It was clean and pool was nice for our teenagers.

The two matching villas were perfect for our family of 12. The gated community is secluded but still close enough to the activities La Fortuna has to of.

The property was a great spot for 2 families of 4. Close to town and activities. Safe. After activity pool time on the hot days was loved by all.

This was good for three family of with

Overall a nice stay and well suited for two families traveling together - we enjoyed the private space each home offered as well as shared time in the pool and on the lanai.Between the two houses we had most of what we needed but neither was entirely complete (for example, one house had a coffee maker but no coffee pot, one house had hot pads and the other didn’t) - recommend taking quick inventory of each to make sure each has what it needs.

You will need to have a car to stay at this unique property in La Fortuna. It is the perfect home to rent if two families or a large group of friends are traveling together. The home was clean. The common spaces were a little small, so it makes a great place to rest your head at night but not to hang out as a group. It is a quick drive into La Fortuna and all the activites in the area. There are a lot of dining options if you don't want to prepare your own meals.The home was clean and the beds are comfortable. The couches in one of the houses are well used, so probably wouldn't be very comfortable to sleep on. The community is secure and safe.

Had a great stay at Villa del Encanto. Amazing view and close to supermarket and downtown.

Overall it was great a few things needs to be fix liked the doors won’t close and we didn’t have washing machine. But I can’t complain service it was amazing communication was right away . I definitely recommend it

Our stay at the Villa del encanto was everything we need to make our experience the most memorable one. The Villa is an excellent option for two sets of families where everyone can have time by themselves and also meet at the pool to swim or eat meal together near the pool. The villa was tastefully decorated and made wise us of the space. Tip: make use of the bedroom curtains at night as the sun does is bright in the morning. I found the the curtains completely keeps the sun out , enough for me to sleep in a couple of hours later. The. Villa is centrally located so we could do our activities (hikes, white water rafting , chocolate/coffee tours, thermal spa and zip lining) and come back to rest at mid-day before doing another activity. I was impressed with how they have everything we needed to make our stay a home away from home. The place was immaculate and the grounds well maintained. We made use of the pool and was close enough to the town center to try some of the local restaurants. Highly recommend the place and we would stay there again if we come back to La Fortuna. I LOVED the view of the volcano, that in itself is worth the stay!
