Vacation rentals near Paradise Hot Springs

Very cute cabin with lots of birds! so nice to sit outside with coffee in the morning :)

We arrived to breathtaking views of Lake Arenal and the volcano. Over the next couple of days we savored delicious varied breakfasts and a German cuisine inspired dinner that was prepared and customized to accommodate our dietary restrictions. All of us enjoyed visiting the hot tub daily. The library was well utilized during our stay. So many genres of books for our varied interests! We strolled through the gardens, admiring the many tropical plants and flowers and even saw toucans both mornings. The kitchen is very well equipped, and the beds were comfortable. This is an amazing, large yet cozy property with hosts that make us feel that this is our home away from home! We can’t wait to return!

Could not have asked for a better place/host for our very time in Costa Rica! Glen was hands on making sure our stay was everything and more! We would highly recommended Villa Encantada!

From the time of booking to the moment we left Marty and Nita were excellent hosts! The property is mesmerizing and they provide excellent info regarding where to eat, excursions, tipping in CR, car rentals, etc. Their property sits atop a small mountain with jungle surroundings, exquisite gardens, and a great view of the volcano. The suite was superb with many extras for use like binoculars, bug spray, umbrellas, toiletries, beverages in the fridge, a welcome gift, robes and slippers to mention a few. The made to order breakfasts were delicious and the pools and hot tub in the pristine surroundings devine. Their fur babies gave us some love which was terrific since we missed ours so much. They only have 2 suites so sometimes it feels like you own the place as you lounge outdoors in the sun. I could go on and on! Highly recommend you stay here! Thank you Marty and Nita for sharing your beautiful property with us. Puravida!

If you are looking for a place to stay in Monteverde, look no further. This is a beautiful home located near town that offers so much. The house was incredibly clean and offered lots of space for our house. Sitting on the patio looking out on the forest never gets old. Finally, Evelyn the host is highly communicative and offers great local tips. Highly recommended!

Our stay at the Encantada Arenal was wonderful Marty and Nita are super hosts, and their property is amazing! It was fun sitting having coffe in the morning and watching the Tucans eat the fruit off the tree outside the cottage. The views are amazing and the people are so nice and warm and friendly. The view of lake Arenal is spectacular and the volcano is amazing. There is so much to do there you will never be bored.We look forward to our next trip back to Encantada Arenal.

This place exceeded all our expectations! Nestled in a peaceful setting surrounded by lush rainforest and stunning landscaping, it offered the perfect retreat. The hot tub was a highlight for our group, especially during the day when it was cooler and perfect for the kids. It provided a relaxing way to soak in the serene atmosphere.We also appreciated thoughtful touches like the swings and BBQ area, which added to the charm, and the host's preparation with umbrellas for the rain made us feel well cared for.However, be aware that the road leading up to the property is quite rough. A 4x4 with high clearance is a must, and while our Toyota RAV4 managed just fine, it’s a longer drive than expected, making quick trips to town less convenient. That said, the tranquility and beauty of this location are absolutely worth it!Would definitely stay here again and I will recommend it to all of our friends and family!

This house was everything we expected and more. The sunsets were spectacular from the jacuzzi and through the panoramic windows, with views of 3 volcanos and the Gulf of Nicoya. The occassional double rainbows were a treat, it could be called Sunset Rainbow House with no exageration. Ingid Ingid sent very detailed instructions, info regarding house and things to do prior to our arrival. Directions to the house and entry were clear. The interior was spotless throughout, kitchen well appointed with all the amenities, 2 bedrooms and family room with new smart Tvs. In fact everything appeared to be new, from kitchen appliances to furniture. The maid spent the day tidying up halfway through our week-long stay. If you want to avoid the tourist bustle in St. Elena but still want to partake of what it has to offer, like the many restaurants, they are just a short drive away, as are all the other attractions in the area. Peace and quiet, with lots of action if you want it. We are a senior couple and felt very secure in the house and surrounding area. Thanks especially to Ingrid for being such a helpful and gracious host. Highly recommended.
