Beautiful Property, Amazing Hosts
We stayed in Casa Victoria for 5 nights in August, 2024. Carol is a great host and very kind and responsive to any questions I had. I loved the little touches upon arrival, a welcome board with wine, a detailed brochure with a lot of information about the property and area. The property itself is spotless, the design is beautiful and it is so spacious. Everyone loved having their own private space. We enjoyed the beautiful pool and the friendly neighborhood dogs. The house is located about 15-20 minutes outside of La Fortuna so, make sure to pick up some groceries upon arrival. The kitchen has everything you need to make meals so you’re not going into town for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Thanks Carol & Ademar, for a wonderful stay!

Beautiful retreat!
Casa Victoria was even better than advertised! The gorgeously modern home is placed at the edge of a forest with huge windows and sliding doors leading out to views from every room—you can even see Arenal volcano on a clear day. The home itself is very clean and is the best stocked home we have ever stayed in throughout our extensive travels. It was the perfect retreat to return to after a day of hiking and sight seeing. The large pool, outdoor shower, and chairs were very relaxing. We were able to make dinner at home in the amazing kitchen. The hosts, Carol & Ademar, were incredibly welcoming and responsive. On our first morning, Ademar met us to explore the family farm, showing us the many crops growing and even let us pick fresh eggs for our breakfast. You can tell the hosts take great pride in their property and strive to make it enjoyable, even providing us with a bottle of wine and coffee for our stay. They thought of everything! Stay here and get away from it all.

Casa Victoria is amazing in every way!
We came here with our 2 adult children and their spouses, and our stay at Casa Victoria exceeded our expectations. Carol and Ademar were terrific hosts, responding quickly and providing great advice on local spots. Ademar and his nephew Justin prepared a delicious meal for us one evening, and Ademar took us on a tour of the rainforest surrounding the casa. The home was beautiful and had all the necessary amenities. We truly loved it here.

Amazing House - tucked away and short drive from La Fortuna
The house was wonderful. It was very clean and just as advertised. Our young kids loved the pool and all the wildlife all around. We saw lots of exotic birds, monkeys, and more just sitting pool side and walking through the forest adjacent to the property. The hosts were extremely accommodating and communicative. Both the pool cleaner and the on-site owner took the time to point out wild life to us each morning. While we didn't realize this at the time of booking, we actually loved that this house is slightly outside of La Fortuna and we enjoyed exploring Chachagua. A car or private driver is likely necessary as a lot of tours will not pick you up at this location. This house was amazing and we loved every minute of staying here.

Ever window is a picture. BEST VRBO EVER!!
Hosts were the best! Thank you Carol and Adamar. Loved Adamar and nephew cooking dinner for us. Adamar gave personal tour of the most beautiful property with all of its flora and fauna plus its animals. Saw a black owl and many birds including a beautiful Toucan. Beautifully done house with a very well stocked kitchen. Enjoyable 15 minute drive to La Fortuna for souvenirs annd lunch and also loved the little town of Chichagua 2 minutes down the road where we got some groceries wine and good pizza. Easy to get to the well known hot springs. Paradise Hot Springs with the day pass and couples massage was a very good Valentines Day. We enjoyed the pool and the very pleasant warm rain squalls. It was like a sauna outside. Very peaceful. Need a car. A Must See!! 2/21/2024. From Washington State❤️

Oasis in La Fortuna
We recently stayed at Victoria House (at the foot of the mountain) for three days. Our stay was wonderful! Communication with the Carol was clear and prompt throughout the entire process. The home is beautiful and well appointed. We appreciated the newer and well-maintained property including the beautiful swimming pool. The grounds are also secluded and lush--although we were close to town, we felt that we had our own little oasis in the jungle. Consistent WIFI was greatly appreciated. The location of the house is also close to multiple attractions and restaurants. In addition to feeling welcomed and at home in the house, we especially enjoyed a delicious dinner prepared by Ademar on our last evening. It was amazing! We will definitely consider returning to Victoria House and will recommend it to our friends and family traveling to the area.

Beautiful home in jungle
This home is located on a family owned farm and is right up against the jungle with beautiful views and away from the touristy vibe often found at resorts. Our hosts were very friendly and offered tours of the area and cooked a delicious meal for us when we arrived. The pool was warm and house as nice as described and in photos… plenty of room for our family. Recommend to have your own rental car to get around and see the sites around Arenal and Fortuna… a short drive but worth it to be away from the crowds and experience nature.

Peaceful retreat
The house was clean and new and easily accommodated our family of 5 and two friends. Each room has its own bathroom which was great. All bedrooms have a digital faced locking door like you would find on an exterior door so each time the door closes it locks - not a big deal but if you have young children it may feel challenging to hit the series of numbers on the key pad to enter the room. The setting is just gorgeous! You feel like you are in the jungle and can enjoy views of the volcano from inside the family room as well as by the pool. It feels very private and away from it all. It is about a 15 minute drive into La Fortuna. The hosts were really quick to respond to any questions or needs that we had and realty pride themselves on wanting to make a good experience for their guests. Nice touches like a bottle of wine and coffee were left for us upon arrival and basic cooking seasonings and oil were available. Overall a great experience. I would recommend they add lamp lights to each room as the overhead lighting in each room is very bright and sometimes it’s nice to have a lamp on vs the entire room lights on.

Sehr empfehlenswertes Ferienhaus nahe La Fortuna
Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Das Haus ist noch recht neu und in tadellosem Zustand. Die Küche ist sehr umfangreich ausgestattet, die drei Schlafzimmer sehr angenehm gestaltet. Alles gut einen sehr hohen Standard: Waschmaschine, Trockner, Küchengeräte aller Art usw. Der Ausblick aus dem Wohnzimmer oder im war herrlich: Regenwald (mit Tukanen), manchmal den Vulkan Arenal und die Bepflanzungen der Gastgeber. Herrlich ruhig gelegen, aber nur mit Mietwagen zu empfehlen. Schöne Ausflüge in naher Umgebung möglich. Der Pool wurde jeden Morgen gereinigt, er war prima zur Abkühlung und sauber. Die Gastgeber sind wirklich sehr freundlich und antworten immer schnell über WhatsApp bei Fragen.

Tout simplement merveilleux!!
Je vous recommande la maison Victoria de Chachagua!! La maison est super propre ainsi que la propriété en générale. La cuisine est complète avec plusieurs extras. Les hôtes nous ont accueillis avec attention (une bouteille de vin 😊). Finalement, alors que nous avons eu un ennui avec la porte d’entrée, Aldemar s’est empressé à régler le problème. Nous avons passé que 2 jours, mais la maison aurait été formidable pour un long séjour.
