About Your Hosts
Welcome to our slice of paradise in La Fortuna, Costa Rica! We are the Garcia family—Jon, a dedicated firefighter from Denver, CO, my beautiful wife of 23 years, and our two wonderful sons. Our love affair with Costa Rica began during our first visit in 2020, and since then, we've returned every year, falling more in love with this incredible country each time.
We've traveled extensively across Costa Rica, but La Fortuna has always held a special place in our hearts. Every trip starts here, and we never want to leave. The breathtaking views, the warm community, and the vibrant natural surroundings make it a place we knew we wanted to call home. We never imagined it would happen so soon, but now we're thrilled to share our dream with you.
Whether you're here to explore the majestic Arenal Volcano, relax in the hot springs, or immerse yourself in the rich local culture, we’re excited to offer you a warm, comfortable space to enjoy everything this beautiful region has to offer.
We can't wait to welcome you to our home away from home in La Fortuna!
