"We wish we would have spent more time at Patrick's place. The breakfast was the best we had in Costa Rica. This place has everything you need to explore the La Fortuna area."

"This house was really a gem, well equipped and surrounded by nature. Just be SURE to rent a 4WD vehicle, as there are many steep and winding dirt roads to access the property with huge potholes and ruts. We knew about this area but if you have never been there be prepared for an off-road experience. Lots of birds and beauty make the effort worthwhile. Friendly and helpful caretakers. We had a lovely time:)"

"If you enjoy unique places, Destino is a MUST DO! The photos are exactly what you get - no unpleasant surprises. The villa we stayed in for 3 nights has 2 bedrooms, each with an ensuite toilet and sink. Each has access to 2 showers, an indoor and an outdoor. The infinity pool was a fabulous way to cool down and relax after a day of hiking. The kitchen was fully equipped for four people with full sized fridge, gas oven and stove, microwave, dishwasher, kettle, small drip coffee machine, stove top expresso maker, and a ricemaker. There's air conditioning that we used only at night for sleeping. Dining is el fresco with wonderful views from the deck. Orlando was an excellent communicator and was super helpful and accommodating. The location is a little off the beaten path, but honestly, that's definitely part of the charm! The dirt road is steep in places, but absolutely no issues in our rented rear wheel drive Toyota Rush. The landscape is fun to explore, with plenty of kilometers to walk. There is a view of the Rio Blanco and a path/steps down to it for those who are able. You don't want to miss a stay at Destino! "

"Staying at this property made our first trip to CR very special. If you want to immerse yourself and disconnect in the heart of Arenal region, you will love it here. The property is very well maintained, the pool adds a luxury to the view and surrounding and the birds wake you up and put you to sleep. We loved the variety of birds, having coffee every morning on the deck with our kids swimming and listening to the jungle around us. the friendly owners of the soda and restaurants a block away and felt very safe here. We were a short drive to all our activities except Monteverde. But that’s an another story! William was quick to respond to our inquires and graciously provided us with early check in coming off a long overnight flight. The property is so unique with the private pool, lush jungle, lake view and lots of privacy. I hope I get to visit this property again!!"
