Villas Fortuna Boutique

This place is so private and cozy, the staff is amazing and nice. We really enjoyed our stay and will highly recommend if you want something different than a regular hotel.

Daniel is an nice host, communicative and said no to anything. Main issue is that depending on the room you book you will have a nice or a bad experience there.

The pool looked fine but inside was a hose, that gave me the impression about some kind of maintenance happening over there. Never seeing that before.

The cafeteria, where the breakfast is served, is wide open in outdoors and next to the pool. Yep, the one from images. Place is not clean thoroughly and microwave, bbq were nasty. The cleaning towel looked disgusting. That, plus that there was a cat and a dog surrounding this area, gave us the ick eat there.

If your room its in front of the pool, you will have a nice stay here. Those are the best rooms in the Villas as they look well-preserved and noise factor is not present. Sadly for us, the room we booked (hoping to get the nice one from photos) was the one in front the main street, above the liquor store. The room is so small, it has 2 full mattress beds buy should be for just 1 full/queen bed. Excellent mattress by the way, felt super soft. The bathroom was also tiny and it has a water leak in the base of the sink. The a/c was ok, it was weirdly placed so from time to time we turn it off as it hits directly to the person in the first bed on the left. There are no wardrobes, no place for you to hang towels or clothing. The room’s paint is peeled off.

The parking spot was messy too, weird to enter from a store. Bad signaling, confusing to access villas.

Daniel - the host - was great. The communication from him was excellent. Highly recommended!

Perfect location! We stayed at the villas and they were very clean and new. We were a little scared about the noise reviews but we didn’t feel any in the villas and we traveled with a 4 month old baby!

This place is incredibly convenient—our Ubers arrived within 1-2 minutes every time, and it’s centrally located, making it easy to get anywhere. The host, Dani, is very responsive and flexible, even preparing breakfast for us to take on the go.

A few things to note: The property is located above a liquor store, which at first didn’t give the best impression from an American perspective. However, it turned out to be quite useful, doubling as a convenience store. The rooms are a bit outdated—we had a wall gecko in ours, and instead of full duvets, they provide throw blankets. That said, it feels like a safe motel with a friendly front desk staff.

If you’re looking for a luxury stay, this isn’t the place for you. But if you want an affordable, highly convenient spot with quick Uber access, a handy store downstairs, and downtown La Fortuna just three minutes away, this is a solid choice. The internet was fast, the A/C was ice cold (we even had to turn it off at times), and overall, I’d rate it a 3/5. Would I stay here again? Sure—if I’m on a budget or just looking for a practical place to crash.

Shockingly great place to stay. Worrisome when pulling up for checkin but very comfortable for four of us to stay in for a couple nights. Teenagers had plenty of room, easy less than a block walk to a dozen restaurants.

We stayed in the 2 bedroom apartment at the back of the property on the second floor. The room was updated and clean. Walking distance to restaurants. It is attached to a convenience store for beer, snacks and alcohol. Pool was clean. Also has a whole bar area that you can leverage by the pool. Property can be a little noisy in the morning when everyone is going to work since it is located directly on the main road to La Fortuna.

Friendly owner and property has nice vibe especially at night. Pool and covered bar area were very nice

Overall it was a pleasant stay and the hosts are truly wonderful. While the location isn't central, it features restaurants and their operators nearby. My only complaint is about the noise from the road which really penetrates the room.

The breakfast was awesome!

Daniel and his family were most welcoming, we felt safe and enjoyed the pool! We hope to come back someday!

There are two properties right next to each other under the same name. Please confirm with the owner that you are booking in the good property.

Host was kind. Check in was easy. Restaurants near by were delicious.

The check in host was awesome. He was very helpful.

Positives:
Rooms are very clean and air conditioned, fridge & coffee maker in room, beds are comfy the owner, Daniel is so friendly & helpful and nothing is too much trouble, nice relaxed pool area out back, felt safe there, close to shops & restaurants and it’s a great base to get transportation to various places, If you could get rid of the traffic on the road this hotel would be a great stay.
Negatives:
Noise, oh my God the noise! The traffic noise is another level to the point that on our first night I was sat in bed at 4am looking online to see if I could book into a different hotel for the rest of our stay. It was the busiest weekend of the year, I had no chance. Up til about 11pm there is noise from guys drinking and playing music outside the liquor store underneath the rooms..then all through the night there is a lot of traffic noise. There is no sound barrier. I was glad to move on just to get some sleep. It’s a shame that the noise levels marked our stay as the hotel itself was a nice little hotel

Such a lovely place, however work is needed to fix it up a bit. Daniel is a great host, very kindand happy to help with anything. The only problem for us was the road noise. Door needs replacing as massive gap so feels like you are sleeping outside. Great outdoor space and pool.
For anyone staying in rooms at the front of property - earplugs are a must due to the road noise

Chambre spacieuse, grand frigo dans la chambre, bonne climatisation, lits confortables. Accueil chaleureux de Daniel et toujours disponible. Belle piscine et nombreux restaurants à proximité, dépanneur et laundry à même la bâtisse, parking sécurisé.
Seul bémol, la route un peu bruyante.

It was really nice. Perfect for our short stay in fortuna.

The rooms were OK a little bit noisy because right next to the street overall not a very elegant room, but just OK I guess it was good for the price

We stayed in one of the new, 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom units at the back of the property. It was beautiful, and literally steps from the pool. Our kids (7 & 9) loved the pool. It was perfect because it wasn't too deep for them. They could stand everywhere, which gave us peace of mind. Daniel was an excellent host. Excellent communicator and very helpful with suggestions for local restaurants and things to do. We would definitely stay there again!

The owners were very nice and helpful. The hot water was limited in the shower. The beds and room were comfortable with a nice sitting area outside. The main problem was that the room was on the main road and very noisy from traffic.
