Relaxing paradise
The Ranch Villa Arenal is a gorgeous house and property. We felt at home and fell in love with Yadi the house keeper/cook and Joaquin the grounds keeper. Yadi cooked a delicious breakfast every day and Joaquin entertained us with tours of the working ranch. The Fortuna area offers many activities for all age groups. Our family had a fantastic time and highly recommend this property. Pura Vida.

Loved By All
Our family of 13, ages 73 to 5, stayed for 7 days at this property. The moment we stepped into this villa we felt "on vacation". It has its own personality seeped in history not a bland cookie cutter house. The outstanding landscaping made you feel you were in a remote area yet you are actually within walking distance of necessities and only a few minutes from La Fortuna. The grounds were planted to attract local wildlife and we were always entertained by these visitors. Jaquin gave us an educated farm tour (he is the diamond at this villa) of the crops, answered any questions that we had and went out of his way to be helpful. One suggestion would involve the many light switches throughout this large home and grounds. After a week we still had not figured out where some were located. Labeling them or a detailed diagram in the house manual would be very helpful. The extra bedroom on the main floor is perfect as a handicap room. It has sliding door to bathroom and walk in shower with shower chair. Our family has been home a few days and we miss it already.

Gorgeous home!
We absolutely loved our oasis. Ranch Villa is conveniently located outside of Fortuna, about 10 min, if that. It is next to, in walking distance, a nice restaurant, small sodas, and a grocery store. The outside living is beatiful with pool, hot tub, nature lagoon, and playground for kids. Birds galore! Toucans, macaw, lizards...Yadira cooking was a fantastic and easy way to enjoy CR food and the pool time, although a little expensive. Our main issues, although not really the house's fault, but if developing country- we either had no hot water, no water, a trickle of water; a giant spider in the kitchen; lots if bugs; and a broken hot tub (which they fixed after we convinced them in broken Spanish something was wrong- am electrical shock in water). Again- we take issues in stride when staying in other places, but guests should know it still has challenges. A way to improve the house would be an ac unit in the living room or fan over inside table and see if the water pressure can be normalized. Also- bring noise makers for traffic. The house isn't on the road, but the vehicle noise gets loud.

A wonderful stay at a beautiful property!
We had a wonderful time at The Ranch Villa Arenal! The house and grounds are beautiful and the staff was warm and welcoming. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub and sitting on the porch at night. The Ranch was close to all of our activities in the area. We would highly recommend this property!

Amazing time at the Ranch Villa Arenal
I cannot say enough positive things about our stay. Jorge was an amazing host with amazing staff. Jordy, the concierge was so responsive and helpful with organizing everything for our stay. Yadi, the chef, made the yummiest food for our group and Joaquin, the Gardner, gave us a fun and interactive tour of the property. My husband and friends raved about the house and grounds. Would 100% stay here again!

Amazing Property
Well this place surpassed our expectations. The grounds were absolutely immaculate, and host was so responsive and helpful. Yadi and Joaquin were both extremely helpful and kind. I highly recommend you have Yadi prepare you the traditional Casados with Fish for lunch or dinner one day. It was one of our favorite meals in Costa Rica. The pool was lovely and kept very clean. We loved the little town of El Tanque and lots of stuff a short walk like bakery, super mercado, Victorino's (good restaurant), Empanadas stand, etc. Close enough to La Fortuna and all the activities that are offered in the region. I highly recommend Jalapas if looking for a nice lunch or dinner with views of the Volcano and valley. Luis and his wife were both very nice and live next door and have an amazing garden. Food and service were outstanding! We hired a driver with a van to stay with us for our entire stay and it worked out perfectly and made our trip more enjoyable. You will not be disappointed with this home and so grateful for the family for sharing it with us. It is truly a very special "home".

Beautiful property grounds
The property was absolutely beautiful. Exactly what we wanted. The garden, the hammock, pool and jacuzi were so amazing. Definitely soak in the pool and jacuzi if you come in. The garden view is absolutely amazing. The downstairs bedroom/in law suite was newly renovated so it was perfect. Upstairs could use lots of upgrades/improvements but we expected this. There were a few times we kept finding strange black dots on our beds even with the mosquito net closed and the stair rails had strange shredded wood deposits that need to be looked at. Besides these minor issues in a old home, the propert manager Jorge was always responsive, Joaquin the garden keeper was always making sure the garden is great, the pool is clean and his tour of the farm was so great. Lots of fresh fruits and coconuts to sample and taste. It was nice to stay on a property with a working farm. Make sure you have good hiking shoes for your trips. Yadira was always on time. We had asked her to have breakfast ready by 7:30am everyday since the kids are always ready to eat and we wanted the option to sleep in while they had food. It worked out great. Fresh delicious homemade breakfast everyday. We also asked her to make dinner 3 of the nights. She made us chicken with rice and meat one day and empanadas (which we ate throughout the week for snacks), chicken soup the next day. This was one of my favorites. Last day was grilled casada for everyone. Definitely enjoy some meals from her and maybe even learn.
