We enjoyed staying in this unique little house, the gardens, all the amenities and the peace of the surroundings. The caretaker came to meet us and showed us around as soon as we came. Wifi was excellent. Access was easy. We had everything we needed.

Great stay at the Hobbit House!`
This home was a delight to walk into. Everything we needed for a two week stay was there. It was clean, communication was fantastic - quick and effective. I would recommend this home for your stay in the Lake Arenal area.

The property is lovely. The architecture is really different. Lots of birds. Garden is well groomed. The shower is really beautiful. But the description says hot tub and 2 bathrooms. There is no hot tub. There is one bathroom with two sinks.

Hobbit House in the forest
This place is as amazing as the photos show! We woke up every morning, cooked breakfast and drove into La Fortuna to enjoy all the nature settings available - volcano, forest, hot springs and more. Then back to the hobbit house to relax and enjoy being surrounded by the forest. Definitely a unique and amazing experience. Pura vida!

Just lovely!
Lovely place! We would have liked to have stayed longer. Great location, easy to get around with a small town/rural feel. The house itself was beautiful. I especially loved the wood work, open large windows, the grass roof, and the garden.

Nature lover’s paradise next to farm
We enjoyed the well thought out details of this earth home which provided us with the comforts of home and privacy. It is well secured and has gated parking. You will require a car of your own to really enjoy the property and all the many joys of Lake Arenal. Locals are helpful and very pleasant.

2 day stay
The property is great and is just like the photos. However, the communication at check in was non existent. They were unreachable and did not tell us how to get into the house. The host was not answering on Vrbo, we went to the property anyways but it was locked and nobody was there to let us in. We drive to a local cafe (Cafe & Macademia) and inquired with the staff about the property. One of the cooks happened to know the housekeeper and contacted her, she met us at the property and gave us the keys. As of a week later, I still have not gotten any reply on VRBO from the host! Be cautious about this property. If we hadn’t talked to the locals we would not have gotten into the property and would have been out of a place to stay.

Feels like the house is in a rainforest
We spent a week in this house, and we loved it. We would sometimes just sit with the massive windows open and stare at the vegetation in front of us. Everything is available in the kitchen and Thelma is very helpful. We did have a car (SUV necessary) that allowed us to go all over. Don’t forget to go to Nuevo Arenal and find the small park with a beach to take a swim in the lake (it’s glorious).
