Private, quiet home outside of busy La Fortuna, near hot springs!
Enjoy our beautiful vacation home for family & friend vacations. Just outside of La Fortuna in the exclusive neighborhood of La Palma, you will find a small enclave of private homes and the top spa resort destinations in all of Costa Rica. Our home sits at the base of the famous Arenal Volcano on a quiet paved road ten minutes outside of La Fortuna and ten minutes from Lake Arenal!
We are a perfect jumping off point for many activities in the area such as canyoning, hiking, kayaking, rafting, horseback riding, ziplining, fishing, boating, ATV tours, etc. Our management team can help you with planning these activities and more such as transportation, rental cars, and activities around the country.
Delvis is our manager and your concierge! He will arrange for any activities you'd like to do in our area, as well as assist you with travel around Costa Rica. We are an easy three hour drive from the Guanacaste beaches.
It's an easy drive to town for dining, shopping, and nightlife. Or, if you prefer to stay in, we have a fully equipped kitchen with markets close by.
We have our dining table located on our covered patio to enjoy the tropical air and sound of water trickling by in the river behind the house.
Enjoy a yoga practice on the patio, or a nap in one of the hammocks.
We have two wood rockers on the front porch for relaxing, reading, birdwatching, and enjoying a favorite beverage (we do all at the same time!).
We have two private bedrooms and a loft. Each bedroom has a new queen size bed. The loft area has two, new twin beds. Each bedroom has its own A/C. The loft has its own A/C. And the powerful A/C in the kitchen cools the kitchen and living room. We have full size washer and dryer. Please be mindful that electricity is very expensive so please set the A/C to a higher temp.

About the host
Hosted by Bobbi Berteaux
Hello! I'm an elementary school teacher (recently retired!) living in southern California. I love to travel and practice yoga.
Why they chose this property
My husband (of 40+ years!) Ed and I love to travel and fell in love with Costa Rica after visiting family there in 2007. We decided to build our vacation home with just the goal of going a few times a year.
We decided in November 2016 to share our home with others and the tranquility of this beautiful area of Costa Rica.
What makes this property unique
This area of Costa Rica has not only temperate weather (much cooler and less humid that the coastal areas) but volcanic-heated hot springs, waterfalls, kayaking, fishing, rafting, gorgeous resorts, but also an incredible volcano! This region also boasts so much biodiversity it's astounding! Between the birds, butterflies, orchids/plant life and abundant animal life there's so much to experience that I recommend a stay of at least 3-4 days.
If you’re fortunate, you may see our resident sloth(s) in the trees behind our house!
