Nice stay

"Very nice stay in El Castillo. The cottage is very well equipped and offers an incredible view from the terrace. The site is perfect for birdwatching; I observed a wide variety of species. The view of the Arenal Volcano is exceptional. I highly recommend this place for a short stay in the area."

Beautiful location but a very dated property

In contrast to most of the other opinions here, we had a very different experience. To begin with the check-in process was very quick and efficient. The property manager is just down the road, and he’s very attentive. Unfortunately, the condition and state of the properties a whole different story. The house is very dated, extremely rundown, and in serious need of a facelift. When we arrived, all the furniture was covered with dusty blankets which the property manager promptly removed. However, although the bedsheets were clean, the furniture was very dusty. The bathroom is partially exposed to the living room with the washbasin in the living room itself, and the toilet and shower in two separate cubicles. The toilet and shower cubicles were cramped and moldy smelling. The floors were quite dirty and the beds were creaking with every movement. I would also note, that the beautiful balcony that you see in the photographs is not attached to the house, but a separate gazebo built outside of the house. We did have some beautiful views from there. Overall, based on the quality of the property, this was not worth the money. I feel strongly that the owner should probably put some time and effort into renovating the property from its current state, and the value proposition would be much better. We regularly stay in VRBOs during our vacations and are generally a good judge of quality but we left feeling that with Casa Mirador we really missed the mark.

Great place to visit the region

Lovely place in a quiet bedroom village about 15 minutes from Fortuna. We preferred that because Fortuna is a crowded mess. The house itself is lovely and spacious. Great views if it's not raining. Also, Agustin was easily available a d quite helpful.

The View!

We enjoyed a short stay at this home. Its in the perfect location for rural experience of Costa Rica, but close enough to jump over to La Fortunas tourist trap. We watched the parrots (yellow naped and toucans) play and eat every morning with the volcano backdrop. We also got to see a pizote on our ride into La Fortuna. The Butterfly Conservatory is magical and within walking distance. We had a great and inexpensive meal at Ventamita Cafe as we enjoyed the view. We went to La Fortuna for horseback riding (Don Tobias), hot springs (Los Lagos) and of course, the waterfall. Dont miss out on the shampoo ginger growing all over in El Castillo. It's super fun for the kids, its a natural shampoo plant that you can squeeze and put into your hair.

Amazing views

We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Castillo. The terrace had an amazing view of Arenal volcano, and we saw so many birds in the backyard. It was amazing to have coffee in morning and watch clouds roll through valley and listen to birdsong. The location is convenient for getting to Fortuna and nearby parks for hiking, but Castillo feels much more quaint and quiet for enjoying peaceful evenings. We cooked in kitchen and had everything we needed to prepare meals. We also loved Ventanita restaurant up the hill from this location.

Beautiful old Costa Rica

If you are looking for an escape to old Costa Rica with an amazing viewing platform of Arenal volcano, this is your spot. The village of El Castillo is quaint and 2 great restaurants are walking distance from the property. Augustin was great to work with, but Vrbo has a weird quirk that doesn't give you a confirmation of your reservation. Check directly with Augustin the manager of the property.

Miss Back patio and welcome center already!

This property is off the beaten path in charming El Castillo which we enjoyed. Need 4W drive. Family of 5 very much enjoyed the back patio/hammock...so many birds, hummingbirds, Arenal view, and flowers. The welcome center folks are OUTSTANDING and helped us with recommendations of where to shop and amazing tours. 1 bed creaky but comfortable.

Setting, setting, setting

The view is spectacular - I loved sitting on the deck every morning to enjoy it with a cup of coffee. The house is as described. There are some bugs and a gecko, but when you see the setting, it makes sense and using chemicals would hurt the beautiful surroundings. Beds were very comfortable. You will hear roosters every morning and sometimes the day. They belong to the neighbor and you just have to get used to it. I was aware and just dealt with it. If you have the air-conditioner on in the bedrooms it is not as loud. Every morning we opened up the doors and windows and let the wonderful breeze come through to air out the house and cool it down (might be why we had bugs!). Totally worth it. The cool mountain air is fresh and invigorating. We closed up if leaving or once the sun started to go down. I didn't get one mosquito bite! FYI Costa Rican roads are DIFFICULT. Be ready to drive some harrowing roads. This home is in a great area with some great restaurants and tours available, but there are big hills. I had a sprained ankle so we drove, but if I had been healthy we would have got some good cardio in. If you have food allergies, there is a restaurant called Essence up the road that will accommodate it all. The hostess is always there and remembers what you told her. Cocoa tour was fun. Fantastic bakery down the road - stores, restaurants as well. La Fortuna nearby (20min). Host was just down the road and was responsive and very nice. We really enjoyed staying here!

Awesome views and charm

We really enjoyed our stay but it wasn't very clean when we arrived. The cottage was very cozy (very charming) and the view from the covered deck was spectacular with lots of birds. The people at the welcome center were extremely friendly and helpful. The location is very convenient to Arenal and La Fortuna. There was more to do than we could do in our short stay. On another note, the second nite when we returned, we found termites coming out of the walls in the shower. Lots of them. This place needs a thorough inspection and treatment or it will be sawdust.

A quiet gem

The house is located in El Castillo and not in La Fortuna which was fantastic. It is a smaller, quieter community yet still a short distance from La Fortuna. The house is beautiful with nice woodwork. The management staff were wonderful and responsive to questions. It is in walking distance to a couple of places to eat, a small store and most important, a bakery. The house was clean, spacious and had everything you need. It has a deck in the back (pictured) where you can spend hours looking at Lake Arenal, the volcano and an amazing amount of birds passing by the property. In our 3 week trip, we spent less time here than in other places and that was a HUGE mistake. There is much to do in the area. We most certainly would rent this VRBO again.

Loved the Birds and the Food

We really enjoyed our stay in El Castillo. The town is not as busy as La Fortuna and the home has a beautiful backyard view. We only had to walk a few steps to reach La Ventanita, which is a wonderful place to get very reasonably priced food and great milkshakes. There is a bakery down the hill that serves fresh baked goods and a delicious vegetarian restaurant named Essence Arenal. The house was the perfect base for our exploration of this incredibly beautiful area.
