About the host

Hosted by Judah Maceo

Host profile image
I am from Northern California and chose Villa Hermosa & Arenal for the fresh air, spring water, kind people, hot springs and bio-diversity.

We enjoy hosting our guests and sharing the beauty of the pastoral landscape and rainforest.

We look forward to making your trip a meaningful and memorable one and have recently established ourselves on Airbnb (we have received hundreds of 4/5 star reviews since 2010 on other sites).

Additional questions:
I am happy to answer any questions related to Costa Rica, Fortuna/Arenal, The Villa Hermosa, transportation, tours etc. Just drop me a line and I will get back to you as soon as possible.

Why they chose this property

The Villa Hermosa features a verdant pastoral rainforest - the tropical plants draw a bio-diversity of birds & butterflies.

In 2018, birdwatchers associated with Cornell University birding, documented over 60 species of birds on our property during 1 week of the migration period.

Our swimming pool has been described as the nicest many guests have ever experienced.

What makes this property unique

Peaceful, serene area just 20 minutes from Fortuna and 7 minutes from the world-renowned Springs Resort & Spa.

Described by our guests as a slice of paradise - spring water, fresh air, nearby hot springs & rivers - a veritable mini-rainforest abundant in bio-diversity.


Pastoral rainforest:

-Away from the hustle-bustle of central Fortuna yet close enough to all tours and hot springs.

-From our main road "turn left" to Fortuna (Fortuna waterfall, rafting, rappelling, chocolate etc) and "turn right" to Arenal (volcano, ziplining, hiking).

-You are equidistant (in both directions) from every major attraction in the area.
