Highly recommended for couples, families and friends visiting La Fortuna and Arenal Volcano area.

The colonial style is a house that is open, obviously is all gated but all areas of the house are facing the pool and garden areas, living room is an open area that you can sit and relax overlooking the pool area and Arenal Volcano, there is no walls between living room and pool area, so you will get a fresher house. This is the stile of houses dated from 1820 to 1920, mainly located in the lowlands of Guanacaste province, the owners use to live in Guanacaste and decided to create a similar villa with all the amenities of a Hotel.

Bedroom 1: King size bed, A/C unit & Private bathroom

Bedroom 3: King sized bed and A/C unit
Bedroom 4: Two king size beds, A/C unit & Private bathroom

The property has a large private pool with excellent view to the Arenal Volcano, very private property, great living room and terrace with smart TV, fully equipped kitchen, laundry area and private parking. Excellent property to enjoy your vacations in La Fortuna/Arenal Volcano area.
The house was remodeled on October 2022 adding the fourth bedroom and the swimming pool area, plus some others improvements.

Villa Tucan

We loved our stay at Villa Tucan. The bedrooms were comfortable and spacious and we enjoyed many hours by the pool. The location was great, just a short walk to town. Our host was friendly and communicated well. The check-in/out process was very easy. I would recommend staying at a Tucan.

Great Location and Manager

The location is within walking distance of many things. The manager is wonderful with communication. I planned an itinerary and sent it to him, he booked all the excursions with pick up at the house - it was perfect. I wasn’t sure how I would like the open concept of the house, but it made it feel more like we were living like the locals. The private chef service was amazing! We would stay here again if we came back

Excellent property for a few days in La Fortuna

Description and photos of the house were accurate. Location was very convenient - only a 5-minute walk to downtown. Rooms were spacious and clean. The views of the Arenal Volcano from the pool deck are spectacular. Check-in was a breeze, and we found the management company to be very responsive to our inquiries. Glad we stayed here.

Beautiful oasis

My teens and I stayed at Vila Tucan for Thanksgiving week. The house is conveniently located near banks, markets, and restaurants. The common living area is open to the backyard, and we were comfortable in the open air. No issues with bugs or other wildlife. The bedrooms were cool and comfortable. We would definitely stay here again!

Nice find!

Quiet neighborhood and still convenient enough to walk down town. The central location could not have been better to explore all the different activities in the area. Property management responded quickly and offered great suggestions for points of interest. They were very helpful for sure and would recommend them and their services.

Beautiful, tropical property conveniently located

The property manager was very nice, helpful and quick to respond. We enjoyed our stay here despite the fact that the constant cloudiness and intermittent rain did not allow us to see Arenal. Unfortunately, we experienced hot water problems that the management needs to address.

Beautiful Property

Our family group of 7 enjoyed our stay very much. Attractive pool and plantings. Super outdoor living with good view of volcano. Good beds, nice laundry room, fully equipped kitchen with lots of extras. The only thing we found unusual was that there was no hot water to the kitchen sink. Only showers were warmed.

Ideal spot to stay in La Fortuna

The host was great, the view of the Arenal Volcano was magnificent, the secluded pool was luxurious, the clean rooms were comfortable, and the location was ideal for our stay. Being in the middle of town the only drawback was traffic noise in the middle of the night (unavoidable). Would definitely stay again if the opportunity arises.

Kids loved the pool. Location was perfect for exploring town, dining, shopping and connecting with tours- even had an unexpected issue with our rental car registration from SJO which was conveniently addressed in town. The kitchen layout ids a bit awkward but the eating arrangements are more than accommodating.
