We could not have enjoyed this more. It exceeded expectations from the views to the home cooked meals, (Jami is a gem) to Mao and Tucker’s helpfulness in getting us booked into tours and raftin. We LOVED it.
Came to Turrialba for the Canyons- but fell in love with this place. The deck was incredible, great place for mornings- watching the Tucan, watching the clouds roll by all from a comfy chair. The hot tub was a rare novelty. I spent time in other cities in CR, but this place is incredible. Absolutely will be back!

We really look forward to your return to Volare, You were excellent guests, and Yamilet says she will still be here to fix your breakfasts and take care of you .
Thank you, from Tucker
We all loved this place. It was like living in a beautiful piece of art. Swinging in the hammock and contemplating the clouds was incredibly relaxing. Yamileh and Mau were very kind and helpful. Be prepared for a very curvy drive to this amazing house.
What an amazing home in a beautiful location! We opted to stay in and just enjoy all the house had to offer, and we took full advantage: dinner by Yami (delicious, and lots of it!), airport transfer for some of our party, couples massage, a few uses of the tub, tons of cloud watching, sloth searching (unfortunately we didn’t find him) and waterfall swimming. We ate at some of the local restaurants, which were excellent (most notably Carnitas Chani and the Mexican place next to El Rio (can’t remember the name). It was so relaxing and just what we needed. We would definitely return and recommend.

The sloth was spotted yesterday going down the hill, so hope it is making Volare its permanent home. We have 18 guarumos their favorite food trees so hopefully enough to feed a sloth family
We loved our stay here! Definitely take advantage of having Mau pick you up at the airport and drive you to the house. We also had him drive us to our next location, where we rented a car, and it was worth every penny.
We had Yami cook breakfast and dinner each day and it was the BEST decision! The food was delicious. She was so unobtrusive and it was such a luxury to have her cook for us
The house and property are exactly as described, and are beautiful. Very comfortable beds, amazing views. Ask to have someone show you the waterfall on the property, it's beautiful!
We loved our stay here, don't hesitate to book!
Superb comfort, excellent meals, complete privacy, will return every year
A family vacation with everything we could have asked for. The views - above clouds, above birds in trees, rain forest, mountain sunrises and sunsets they all beat the seaside. Volare is just as beautiful inside - the artwork, the design of the house and selection of comfortable furniture, the fireplace, the oversize bath tubs, linens and bedding. Yamilet's cooking took all the stress away and let our family simply experience local specialties. The privacy blew us away, as did everything about Volare. We'll be back as soon as we know the school schedules for 2023.
Custom home with breathtaking views! We stayed 4 days with our family on our first visit to Costa Rica. We enjoyed the natural beauty and the abundance of birds we saw from the expansive deck. The owner's knowledge and communication helped us plan for an unforgettable family adventure. We enjoyed our guide/driver Antonio's efforts and company so much we shared dinner together one night. Although new to his role, he will become an outstanding guide. He took the extra effort of making sure we had plenty of photographs of our group to remember the experience. A combination of beautiful surroundings and fantastic interactions with our host and guide, has us talking about our next trip to Costa Rica and Volare will be part of our itinerary.
This place is amazing! We couldn’t have asked for better accommodations, views and luxury feeling. I can’t describe how much we loved the house and pictures don’t do it justice. While there contact turrialtours-Johnathan. He and his group were amazing and we did a group tour with a fresh lunch. We can’t say enough great things about them both. He house was cleaned each day and laundry was picked up as well by Yami. Mau met us at the gate to answer questions and stopped by that evening. He was a great property manager with very timely responses. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay. We plan to be back.
This place is magic! All I want to do is move to Costa Rica and live in this house forever! The view is amazing! The house itself is so fun, so much cool art everywhere! The hot tub was such a cool experience. We all truly enjoyed our time here, so much so that we spent one whole day of our vacation just at the house not going anywhere/seeing anything. Just relaxing and reading in the hammocks watching the clouds pass by! Would highly recommend Volaré. Such a good experience!
The most beautiful and interesting home we have ever stayed in, period. We never knew a place like
We never knew a place so spectacular as this existed. It has changed our priority for all future vacations. The views are spectacular. We watched birds land in treetops just off the deck and found a sloth in a tree nearby. The house is so comfortable, and every detail was first class. We took advantage of the private meals and tours offered by Volare, and that was a very wise decision.
