Fabulous, relaxing abode close to town

The home is charming and aesthetic, with 3 large bedrooms (one is an en-suite casita), lovely design and a wonderful pool with views of Arenal. We loved our time there and our kids loved having their own pool. The kitchen has everything you need and has a nice indoor/outdoor breakfast bar. The location is great as it's close to town and we loved the restaurant recommendations from the owner!A few things for tenants to be aware of: locking the driveway gate each and every time coming and going (seems to be the trend on the street however), water on the pool deck never went away after first day so was pretty wet out there, and you're in the rainforest so it's buggy (they get in through shower drains). House is very clean and nice and these are things the owners cannot control but wanted to point it out for setting expectations.

Clean and comfortable home

We loved staying in Nela’s home in La Fortuna. The house was very clean, the location of the home was very convenient to everything in La Fortuna. Communication was easy with Nela, and she had great restaurant recommendations. The beds were comfy and we loved spending time outside in the courtyard and taking dips in the little pool to cool down in the afternoon. Would definitely recommend and would stay here again.

Family Vacation

Magnalia House was perfect for our 2 night stay in La Fortuna. Great location to downtown. Clean, comfortable and beautiful. The cabina located just off the main house is perfect for an additional family member or older kids. Each bedroom with their own bathroom and A/C. Very private, located in a developing neighborhood. Neal, the host was very responsive and offered great guidance to restaurants, markets, bakeries and activities. Would recommend and stay again.

Great stay near La Fortuna

We really enjoyed our stay here. The place felt safe, private, and was a short drive from La Fortuna and the Arenal area. The pool area was a really nice retreat to relax between activities and was so peaceful for listening to the rain.

Peaceful view of volcano

This VRBO is in a new development area so it seems a bit isolated at first but there is a restaurant right up the way and really it's minutes drive from everything else. Was peaceful and secluded feeling with the gate and trees around the pool. Well equipped kitchen, working AC, great communication. Great little place for two or three couples the way the rooms are laid out!

Cute house near town

Great little house. Solid kitchen, good ac in rooms. Cute little pool. Photos are accurate. One thing I didn’t realize from photos is that there are no doors between bedroom and bathroom for 2 of the rooms so if bathroom privacy is an issue be warned!
