Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Lake Arenal

Great place. Great views. We will definetely come back. Loved being there.

A wonderful place to disconnect and rest. The views of the lake are spectacular, and the surroundings are very peaceful. Ideal to enjoy as a family or with friends. Definitely a space that I would love to go back to.

I really enjoyed my stay here when visiting La Fortuna! The house was spacious, clean, had all the amenities you need, and was in a good spot of La Fortuna with beautiful surroundings. My family and I really liked it. Randall & Juliana were also both very responsive to help if I had any questions. I highly recommend this house for your stay and would not hesitate to stay again in the future if I ever visit La Fortuna again!

If it is available for your dates, book it right now. We spent four nights here with our family of five and I would stay at least one more night next time. The location is perfect in every way- safe, private, walkable, views, easy access to everything. Beds were comfy and plunge pool was a plus. Marvin has thought of every detail... there was even a pitcher of cold water already in the fridge for us when we arrived. Communicating with Marvin was also like having a local friend giving us ideas for our tours. Everything he suggested was great and he made the booking process easy. It was much nicer than the hard sells on the sidewalk of beautiful La Fortuna.

a family of 4 had a wonderful time here! highly recommend!

Thank you for the fantastic stay! Tanyia and Rod are amazing hosts. We appreciated the communication and flexibility when booking and leaving. Great recommendations, can’t wait to try some of them when we return. The place is tidy and spotless. Loved the flowers and it’s very well stocked - has everything you need. Great A/C and the showers were so refreshing. The view from the living room is so beautiful of the lake. Our girls loved having their own private area with the king bed. The neighborhood is so peaceful and beautiful- perfect place for a stroll by fields with horses. As with so many places in Costa Rica, there are some steep dirt road inclines on the way - we had no trouble in our 4 wheel drive. This place offers clean, peaceful solitude to listen to the sounds of the Costa Rica jungle tucked away on the south side of Lake Arenal. We only spent evenings there so we didn’t go to the clubhouse.

Wow! What an amazingly beautiful home for a group to share! Loved the spacious place and clean accommodations, large outdoor seating area and the pool is perfect! Just from the house we saw a sloth, toucans, & lizards. We felt very safe with having a locked gate. The privacy was nice. I hope to be back soon!

We had a wonderful stay at Erick’s place on our trip to La Fortuna. The house was beautiful and fully equipped with everything you needed. We will definitely be back if we’re in the area again.

We spent four amazing days at Venado Valley Ranch. From the very beginning, we felt at home thanks to the warm welcome from Sandra. There is so much to do and experience here. Our children, aged 9 and 11, were constantly entertained by all the animals and activities. Ronald guided us on a beautiful tour through the river to the waterfall, where we had a wonderful swim at this unique spot. The horseback ride with the whole family through the mountains was fantastic. Milking the cows and making sugarcane juice were also great experiences. Breakfast and dinner were prepared by Damaris – what delicious meals she made! We truly enjoyed every bite. The accommodation itself is really special. Our kids even had their own room, where Smokey the house cat came to keep them company. They said these were the best days of the entire vacation. But beyond the location, it’s the people who made it truly special. Thank you so much for taking such good care of us, Sandra, Ronald, and Damaris!

Perfect place to stay near La Fortuna. Exceptionally clean, unbelievably beautiful property. We loved everything about our stay as well as the cheap food options right down the road.

This place is a Zen retreat! We had the whole place to ourselves and had a great time waking up to the views of the mountains and enjoying the vastness of the property. Very well curated property. We celebrated 3 birthdays here and had the best time. Great for retreats and family gatherings with celebration. Beautiful 😍

Great spot in a quiet neighborhood, close to the supermarket and restaurants. We walked to the Red Frog several times for coffee and meals. 20 min drive to Arenal Park and Mystico. Great touches around the home. Would definitely stay again!

This place is a hidden gem. Irene is one of a kind; always willing to help, very responsive and super super kind. I will be back for sure. Gracias, Irene por toda tu ayuda y amabilidad!

This place is worth every penny. Beautiful location in nature, very good house, it offered everything and more for family to fall in love with CR.

Marco was an amazing host. He was very responsive and helped us with anything that we needed. The property was beautiful. Felt private, loved the little lounge pool and the hammocks all over the property. The back patio was nice and big and we could sit out there and watch the rain and the animals. We saw howler monkeys and tons of birds since Marco puts fruit out for them every day. Having a washer and dryer was an added bonus. The location was perfect and super close to town. Each room had its own AC unit which kept the place nice and cool.

We loved Casa Paraiso! The house is exactly as it looks in pictures with plenty of space and all that you need to be comfortable. The yard was beautiful and well maintained. We loved swimming, watching the birds, and looking for sloths. The ones on property never came down while we were there but we saw lots of them at Mundo de Perezosos right down the street! Javier, the gardener, was very friendly and showed us the different fruits and toucans in the yard. He also cut down coconuts for us and answered my husband and kiddos’ many questions! We felt safe and enjoyed the location. It was close enough to everything but also not right in the middle of town! A few other recommendations nearby are Don Olivo chocolate tour, the Pure Trek Canyoning (amazing!), and check out some of Juan’s food recs. Pura Vida!

Neal and Diane were very helpful. we had some issues with the car, contacting folks back home. They gave us some good tips. I had an issue with my knee and they gave me the number to a physical therapist in the area. Claudia was great, I was experiencing no pain by the time I left. The pool was a good place to watch storms move in and out from. The birds and other ani.als made it wonderful to look at. There property is just so beautiful. Tronodora is small but has all the things in a short walk for a long stay or a short stay. We had a car but on most days we simply walked into town. We fid hang out with there two dogs, Franny and Albert. They were cute, loving, creatures.

This is a wonderful home with a warm and inviting host! The casita and garden is adorable. Property is very beautiful, well-kept and clean. The decor is spot on for the environment Spent one night; we did not want to leave as quickly as we did. Plan to return. Thank you so much for your hospitality Jose’.

We really. Enjoyed staying at the cabin and the farm. The location was beautiful, we enjoyed sitting outside on the patio in the rocking chairs and the hammock! You could see Arenal volcano and the meadow below was so green and all of the flowering plants with many visiting birds. The breakfast was delicious and it was 5 to 10 minutes by car to restaurants and La Fortuna we will definitely be back!!

Stay here on your La Fortuna visit! The apartment is beautiful, plenty of space for a couple and very clean. Amazing view of the volcano from the room. Located right in downtown La Fortuna, incredibly walkable area with lots of restaurants. We walked to most of our excursions, but it was easy to find an uber/taxi from the place as well. Host was incredibly helpful with recommendations and very flexible. We will stay here again when we come back!

Incredible views of the Arenal volcano and lake. There was one day of our stay when there was heavy rain most of the afternoon that prevented us from adventuring but it did not feel like the day was wasted because we were able to have a cozy stay in our bedroom with an amazing view of the volcano which which was somehow not covered by the clouds despite the rain. We saw hummingbirds every morning from our window. There is also a delicious restaurant with friendly service down the hill and a small super market a few minutes walk away

While many other reviews mentioned it, I’ll have to note here again: the view is amazing. I enjoy taking so many photos through out our trip as the view is spectacular and it chnages quickly at different times, different weather. The weather has been kind to us so it only rained very hard mostly at night and few hours in the afternoon (mid June). Sitting out on the deck in the morning is peaceful and not too cold. All of the descriptions are accurate. The road coming here is rough but so is almost everywhere else in Monteverde. Definitely one of the best Airbnb places we’ve been.

My wife and I chose this unit for our honeymoon, the space was extremely beautiful and lush. The giant windows opening up into the La fortuna jungle was breathtaking. We spent every evening in the jacuzzi listening to the wildlife and sounds of La fortuna. Fernando had great recommendations and was very friendly. We’re looking forward to returning to this special place.

Very happy to enjoy such a beautiful place, the unique, well-conditioned accommodation, the very private environment, surrounded by beautiful details carefully added to add to the magnificent landscape that can be seen and breathed, very grateful to Adolfo, more than a host, a friend in each of his attentions.
