Holiday rentals with lake access in San Carlos

Kellys place was perfect for our family. The location is close to many of the areas local attractions and the peaceful tranquility of the deck and watching so many species of birds in the yard was incredible! We would stay here again.

We enjoyed our stay! It's a nice, clean home with scenic views in an authentic, safe community. We bought a few basics for breakfast (eggs, queso blanco, milk, coffee, juice) at the nearby community mini-market (a few blocks away) so we could make breakfast at the place. If you want fresh fruits & veggies, you should stop at a bigger market on your way (La Fortuna? Or El Castillo?). We ate dinner twice at the nearby La Terraza restaurant, which was good. We loved the batidos de fruta (fruit smoothies/shakes - 'de leche' ('of milk') . My favorite is the batido de papaya (de leche). My kids also tried the strawberry, pineapple, maracuya (and I think others, too!). We enjoyed the dishes we had there, too. Internet at the house can be spotty, but there's some cell reception, too. If you're on vacation and just checking your email from time to time and researching things to do in the area, it's fine; if you're looking to be a digital nomad, this is probably not the place for you.

El lugar es muy lindo y privado , la atención fue buena , la casa estaba perfecta !!! El lugar súper tranquilo, la pasamos genial !!!

This is a very nice, secure, spacious, family home in a local Costa Rican town. All the locals are extremely friendly, and the surrounding nature was breathtaking. We woke up every morning to see a beautiful white horse in the backyard, hummingbirds galore, and there was even a sloth family that lived in the trees above the playground down the street. Andrea is a fabulous host, who really cares about your stay, and checks in daily. We did a pineapple tour, visited the butterfly gardens, relaxed in thermal springs, and of course saw the volcano Arenal. There is so much to do nearby. We would rebook this place in a heartbeat! Highly recommend.

Rebeca's place is exactly like the photos. She communicates well with any information you need about the area. I would stay at this place again.

After staying here last year our kids were so excited to come back! They love the pool! The house has everything you need and is very clean! The property is amazing and we have even seen several sloths.

Villa 2 was an amazing stay for our family of 5. Our 3 young children loved the pool and walking the property looking for birds, lizards, bugs, and the sloth. It was a perfect location to explore La Fortuna on our trip and was a great deal! Would love to return!

This place is an absolute gem! Very close to downtown La Fortuna but still so private and secluded. The backyard and natural pool are GORGEOUS and we even saw a sleeping sloth, monkeys in the trees, so many beautiful birds, and adorable agoutis running around. Our group of 7 fit perfectly and we loved that each room had its own bathroom. Just a heads up though that one of the bed+bathrooms is detached from the rest of the house so that is a bit more isolated/private. My family spent every morning outside listening to all the sounds of nature. We couldn't have asked for a better home for our stay and would HIGHLY recommend this place to anyone traveling to La Fortuna.

The view over the lake arenal is just phenomenal! The house has a huge garden with some fruits, herbs & vegetables wich we were allowed to eat. We can for sure recommend.

El lugar está bien, como se ve en las fotos y tienen un tele en el que se puede ingresar a plataformas de streaming para ver en la noche, lo único es que los baños están a la par y se escucha todo, con el carro parqueado en el espacio se tiene más privacidad

Lovely place with a beautiful lake view. The check-in mechanism allow us enter at early morning when we were coming from my sister’s wedding. Highly recommend if you what to spend a peaceful night with the song of the lake/river and births and delicious native food restaurants around the area. Thanks Yinley for this opportunity!!!

Hermoso lugar y excelente anfitrión, volvería mil veces

Sehr herzliche und zuvorkommende Gastgeberin, ich habe mich sehr wohl gefühlt.

Un excelente airbn, la comunicación y servicio por parte de Wagner excelente. Muchas gracias. Fuimos 3 parejas y cada una con su cuarto privado, nos gustó mucho eso. Además de un amplio parqueo

Le séjour avec Luis et sa femme a été réussi sur toute la ligne. L’espace est adorable: la décoration est belle et on s’y sent très bien en arrivant. Luis et sa femme ont été vraiment attentionnés avec moi et m’ont fait de belle suggestions d’endroits à visiter et de restaurant à essayer. Ils sont adorables. La distance de marche est courte pour se rendre à la rue principale et je m’y rendais à pied à chaque fois. Je me suis sentie en sécurité en marchant, et ce même de soir (je voyage en solo..). C’est à peine à 5 min à pied de la rue principale. Vraiment un beau coup de cœur. Je suis hyper satisfaite de mon séjour.

Wonderful place with the outstanding views ! Clean, well organized, quiet, fully equipped house. Located on the top of the hill , which opens fantastic panorama of the mountains and the outskirts of the town! We enjoyed every morning birds chirping and even saw toucans ! The neighbors very welcoming and sweet, Patricio extremely responsive and friendly! Great get away place (you might want to stay longer than a weekend) plan accordingly 🤗 I want to thank Patricio and his team for the job the guys do ! They do it right , which means they are at the right place ! Making memories is an amazing occupation😊

La fortuna nunca decepciona y en esta ocasión en el hospedaje de Adrian no fue la excepción, su casa es simplemente hermosa, acogedora y con una vista increíble, cuenta con lo necesario para hacer de la estadía muy placentera. El anfitrión 10/10, con su amabilidad, claridad y manera oportuna de brindar información hizo de nuestra primer experiencia en un airbnb muy agradable, Adrián muchas gracias.

Casa Oropendola is magical – a happy place to be happy in! Everything needed to feel comfortable and at home is right there. It is spotless, spacious and well-equipped. The (fully equipped) kitchen, with panoramic windows looking out onto a landscape of utter beauty, is amazing. Gilbert has created a garden of stunning beauty whose heliconia are constantly visited by hummingbirds. Bird lovers – you will be in paradise here! I downloaded the Merlin app for my stay here and was amazed at the species it picked up. Note reliable wifi for work meetings. Safe - could have left the door unlocked at night - not exaggerating. Potable Spring water from the kitchen tap. Gilbert is the kindest and most generous of hosts. He told me about great places to go and helped me a lot. He goes far above and beyond what I expect, doing everything in his power to make the stay as enjoyable and comfortable as possible. He is just a sincere and kind personality. Laguna Hule is breathtaking. Great hikes!

We had a great stay, and really enjoyed using the hot tub after long adventure days. The home had everything we needed. It was clean and comfortable.

Nos encantó nuestra estadía en este lugar. Mi familia y yo disfrutamos muchísimo de los días que pasamos aquí. El espacio es cómodo y acogedor, y la piscina fue un gran plus para todos. Además, el billar (pool) fue una excelente adición para la diversión en familia. ¡Sin duda, una experiencia increíble y nos encantaría volver!

Absolutely loved our stay! The property is stunning, with beautifully maintained grounds and breathtaking views of the volcano. Very private - no one else nearby. Our kids couldn’t get enough of the pool and jacuzzi—it was the perfect place to relax. The location is great too, just a quick and easy 15-minute drive into downtown. Kenneth was an exceptional host—super responsive and thoughtful, even leaving fresh coconuts in the fridge for us. We would definitely stay here again!

Todo excelente, limpieza, atención, acceso rápido para lugares de recreación.

Esta lugar es una casa muy bonita con bastante espacio, la piscina muy linda y toda la propiedad está hermosa y cerca de la Fortuna de san Carlos. Tiene acceso a un río donde entra carro (algunas partes solo carro alto). La dueña de la casa nos trató super bien e incluso nos consiguió algunas cosas que queríamos. Recomiendo el lugar si les gusta pasar un buen rato en familia.
