Very nice house with very nice hosts and property

The house is very nice and comfortable. What makes this property special is the hos, the property and a great location. Though the property is not particularly large it is packed full of interesting plants and wildlife (birds, a young sloth, reptiles, etc.). The host was always willing to answer our questions and we had a great time taking a cooking class (a family affair) where we prepared, cooked and then ate a wide variety of local foods. Great place to stay.

Sloth in your back yard!

We stayed for three nights. It was a nice location, with a family farm right on the property. Lidianna was super sweet and took us on a tour of the farm, which included a resident sloth! They also do night hikes and cooking classes, but we didn't try them. The house itself is not fancy, but fit our needs . ho

This house was very clean and the hosts welcomed us as soon as we pulled in the driveway! The family that owns this rental are some of the nicest people we’ve met. They went above and beyond for our family in every way! I can’t thank them enough for everything! They made our stay perfect! We would definitely recommend this house to any and everyone! Thank you SO much!!!

Great for a family trip

This house worked great for our stay in the La Fortuna area. We appreciated having three separate bedrooms (each with a fan!) as it allowed us a spread out a bit. The area was very quiet. Unfortunately, since it was the rainy season, we did not get to see much of the sloths. We would definitely look to stay here again if we come back to Costa Rica!

Wonderful stay

We had a lovely stay in this house just outside La Fortuna. We had delicious meals and highly recommend having breakfast and dinner at the house. It was amazing to see Flash the sloth hanging out in the garden. The house has a great location near activities but gives an authentic feel. Pura vida!

Great Location!

We enjoyed meeting Lidiana and taking a tour of her garden. Seeing "Flash" the sloth and the twins was quite a treat. Lidiana makes the best tea fresh from the garden! As an added bonus, the home is located near to many of La Fortuna's best attractions.

Spectacular home and family

Gorgeous rural home with an amazing organic garden overlooking Arenal volcano with gorgeous sunsets with animals including dogs cats sloths frogs and birds. The Ceibos made us incredibly welcome and treated us like family. They even made dinner for us and ordered a rainstorm for the tin roof!

Incredible stay. Incredible hosts. A real gem.

This is a fantastic little home with amazing hosts. Location was perfect with a wildlife sanctuary in the back yard ;) we say baby sloths, beautiful birds iguanas, poison dart frogs, etc. all on the property. There are also beautiful gardens filled with pineapple, plantains, bananas, peppers and so much more. Your hosts Lidiana and Eddie use all of those ingredients in your delicious breakfasts and the offered cooking class. Lidiana is such a beautiful soul and took care of our every need. What else can I say, we loved our stay at Ceibo Arenal Home!

Nice place to stay on a beautiful property

We cooked with our host which was so fun. After dinner we took a very cool night tour and saw so many cool critters. . There are chickens and dogs. It is not a place with bells and whistles. It’s a step above camping and we were all very comfy.

February stay

We enjoyed our stay at Ceibo arenal very much. Very exotic setting amongst the jungle trees with toucans visible as soon as we pulled in. Lidiana and Roberto and their sons Aaron and Edison were lovely and welcoming and we enjoyed the dinner they prepared for us and the nighttime tour of the frog ponds after dinner. It was my birthday while we were there and lidiana handcrafted a bracelet with my name for me which was so thoughtful and sweet! Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Awesome experience

Stay here for an authentic Costa Rican experience. Lidiana and Eddy couldn’t have been more welcoming, informative and easy to get along with. We thoroughly enjoyed the organic garden, Flash and her twins, the frogs, the breakfasts and dinner in the outdoor kitchen, and the tropical flowers, especially the “fuzzy” heliconias. We’re so glad we chose Ceibo Arenal for our Arenal visit.

Loved our stay

We loved our stay at Lidianas and Eddie’s. Very kind and generous hosts. The house was charming and comfortable. Beautiful property. Great location. Breakfasts were the best we had in Costa Rica. Traveled with four boys. They loved looking for the animals (frogs, sloths, toucan). Definitely would go back!

Wonderful family and true Costa Rican experience

We stayed at Ceibo Arenal for four wonderful days. The home is close to all the activities that La Fortuna has to offer and is nestled on a beautiful piece of property with gardens that offer home grown food for breakfast or dinner. We also. We participated in a cooking class with Lidiana, Eddie, and their eldest son Edison that was a true highlight of our trip and made this a wonderful stay for my daughter, friend, and I. We would highly recommend Ceibo Arenal if you visit La Fortuna. …..Flash is also a must see!!!
