Perfect for a family vacay in La Fortuna

Casa Turquesa was a wonderful place for our family to stay for our vacation in the La Fortuna area. We felt safe in the gated property. The pool was perfect for the kids. The decor was elegant and charming at the same time. And you can’t beat the location! It’s away from the hustle and bustle of the city bit just a quick 5-minute drive into town. Highly recommend!

Convenient and Comfortable

Everything was great about our stay. The property is a short drive from La Fortuna, check-in was very easy, there is a close by property manager that is easy to reach, and the pool is wonderful (day and night!). This property really made our stay near the Arenal volcano very easy with our young children.

About the host

Hosted by Carolina Rico

Host profile image
Our names are Luis and Carolina, we have been together for 20 years, and have 4 kids. We reside in California and run a construction business. Our dream is to retire in La Fortuna in the near future so we bought this house, and made it a home to be loved and enjoyed by vacationers in the meanwhile. It has been quite an experience, we expected to make only some cosmetic changes, but things changed along the way. We ended up fully demolishing and reconstructing the second floor, fully remodeling the first floor while adding square footage, and a carport, and a resort style pool. We have had fun planning and decorating the house to make it warm, welcoming, and unique. We hope you enjoy your stay and make tons of memories.

Why they chose this property

Because of it's location and privacy. It is close to everything but away from everyone. It is only a 5 minute drive to the magical La Fortuna town.

What makes this property unique

Privacy, and accessibility by any type car to the main road that connects to downtown, San Jose and main cities.
