Vacation rentals with a pool in Lake Arenal

We had an incredible stay in La Fortuna with our family, including our 3-year-old and 1-year-old. The home is perfectly situated right at the base of the volcano, offering unobstructed, stunning views—we could see Arenal from the living room and even while relaxing outside. The host was extremely thoughtful, leaving cold beers and champagne in the fridge for us, which was such a warm welcome after a long drive. Communication was excellent, and the concierge-style service made it easy to plan activities that worked for both adults and young kids. The space felt peaceful, safe, and well-equipped for a family. We’d absolutely recommend this place to anyone visiting the area—especially families looking for comfort, scenery, and great hospitality.

We had an amazing stay here! The location was easy to find and not too far from the airport. There were definitely lots of local stores and restaurants to visit near by. We recommend Resturante Ross! The views especially early morning were amazing overall we have no complaints. Our favorite part was visiting the farm animals! Oscar was so nice and welcoming.

We really liked the accommodation, a small paradise surrounded by nature and different birds. The house is also beautiful and David was very helpful. I'll stay here again if I can

We had a wonderful stay! The home was cozy, spacious, and surrounded by beautiful nature—perfect for anyone looking to relax and unplug. What made it extra special was the horseback tour through the property, where we got to see local wildlife and enjoy fresh juice at the end. Jose and his family were incredibly welcoming and made us feel right at home.

We have stayed at Casa Isabelita multiple times. It is always so peaceful. We hope to stay again.

We loved staying at Casa Santa Fe! We even wish we could go back because our time there felt too short. When we arrived we had complementary platano chips and traditional Costa Rica drinks waiting for us. The space was very clean and made us feel comfortable. The pool was amazing and a great addition! We enjoyed our nights in watching TV together on the couch on rainy nights. As well as the variety of options of excursions to do and good restaurants to eat at! Danny was also very responsive and helpful, which we appreciated, it being our first time in Costa Rica. Even after our stay, he was helpful in offering us new options for another Airbnb when we needed it. We would definitely stay again!

It truly is a little slice of heaven! Pictures don’t come close to doing it justice! We stayed 3 nights. It was easy to get to and close to the La Fortuna area. We can’t recommend pie in the sky enough! From check in to checkout it was wonderful!

The other reviews are correct. This place is even more beautiful in person. We did not the amount of space, how clean it was, and how luxurious it felt. It was like being in a resort. Even the way its designed was gorgeous. It was 4 adults and 2 kids and we all loved it. The kids especially loved the pool and how low it was and we loved the convenience of the market directly across the street. Also everything is a short taxi ride away. And to top it off, the one day pass at Las Logas Resort was awesome. We spent hours there walking the grounds and enjoying the hotsprings pools!! This is definitely one of the best airbnbs we've stayed at offering so many amenities withing close proximity to downtown and other attractions. Also the host Rebecca was very responsive! Be careful to follow the instructions when checking in because you will be lost. Thanks again Rebecca!

Where can I start....This is my first time to La Fortuna and we had a great vacation with the help of Gregory. Gregory's is a great host and his property is one of a kind which suits well for La Fortuna environment with lot of nature to enjoy inside his property. He helped in almost everything including recommending a nice Chef Gabriel.

A small, cozy space, but above all very clean and tidy.

Very good location, impeccable cleanliness and very smooth communication. Excellent option to visit El Arenal! Recommended

Thank you Tanya and Rod for being great hosts, they made us feel right at home, they were so kind and responsive! super recommended 👌🏻

Greg was an awesome, super responsive and friendly host, always willing to help out with activity and restaurant recommendations. Greg also has a full time on-site property manager, who is able to address any issues which may arise. The unit is brand new, with modern amenities and furnishings. The property has a beautiful pool and hot tub and there is a nature area with a walking trail and a gazebo in the back. We would definitely stay here again the next time we are in La Fortuna.

Very comfortable and nice, Cristian is very friendly and helpful

The place was very private and safe, all accommodations as described. Very close to the city center. If I had to nitpick, the mattress was extremely hard as well as the pillows. Everything else was amazing, Cristian is very responsive and proactive.

Allan and Isabella were so welcoming and helpful - meeting us to ensure we had everything we needed when we arrived and helping us with extra requests - Isabella even came over to help when the oven fuse went on Christmas Day, halfway through cooking our dinner! The house itself is even better than the photos and the location is great. Chachagua has a great little bakery and a butcher and is 20 minutes from la fortuna and all the adventures and amenities there. Wonderful stay for our multigenerational family!
