The location was perfect for us. Off the beaten path a bit with no traffic noise whatsoever. Being just 2 miles from the base of the volcano was spectacular, unmatched views. The covered porch was a huge asset as you could enjoy the sights and sounds even when it was raining. The host, Diana, was fantastic. Very friendly and responded quickly to any questions we had.

The property next door had some noisy guests, but that's not something Chongos can do anything about. Other than that, there was nothing we didn't like.

Stayed here two nights and it was a perfect relaxing spot. The cabin was very clean and had everything we needed in the small kitchen. The bed is comfortable with good quality sheets and blankets. There is a TV with Netflix for the evenings and the wifi works well. AC is cool and shower is hot. The grounds are beautiful and the small pool was refreshing. The weather was cloudy most of the time we stayed but we did get a quick peek of the volcano. It’s RIGHT THERE. What a beautiful view! I spent a lot of time reading on the small terrace and bird watching. It is a bit out of La Fortuna, but we had a rental car and it was nice to stay away from the hustle and bustle.

The place was great! It exceeded my expectations, very pretty, well-maintained, and with many birds. The swimming pool was also great, and having a little garden in front of the volcano was a plus (although it was raining, so we couldn't see it, still, you feel amazed by the nature surrounding you.

I liked everything. The place is a bit far if you don't have a car, and it would've been great if they'd offered breakfast, although to be fair, the room came with a kitchen, so I could've prepared it myself. We ended up going to town instead.

Very quiet location away from the hustle of Fortuna the property has only 3 bungalow which makes it very relaxed. We were two couples and very much enjoyed sitting on the terrace with a view on the volcano or chilling in the pool after a day of activities You definite need a car as it is a 5-10 minutes drive into the city centre The bungalows have some kitchen equipment to make breakfast or cook something simple. Dogs are allowed

Staying at Chongos Place was one of the highlights of our trip to Costa Rica! Each of the 3 bungalows is a perfect little getaway, our favourite part being the personal patio with an amazing view of Volcán Arenal (the photos don't lie). On one of the days it was pouring rain and there was nothing we could do in La Fortuna, so we couldn't have planned it any better than to watch the downpour pass us by from our covered porch. We suggest getting Cabin 1 if you can, which is right in front of the swimming pool not to mention the perfect view :) Diana, Jennifer and their family were so friendly and accommodating, and the place itself was clean and comfortable, no complaints. Finally, just down the road (2 minutes away) was Soda Tita Rosa with the best food you could ask for at bargain prices, so you're all set for your time in La Fortuna!

On our trip, we were getting used to some really well stocked & equipped (usually shared) kitchens, so the basic one in the room wasn't the most functional. That being said, the owners were very responsive, I messaged them to borrow a few pantry items and they kindly delivered!

The view is amazing. The staff is lovely and helpful. It was clean, the pool was nice, and the garden was great. Loved the little casita, and the location was walking distance to town but quiet.

Lacking hot water in shower, no screens on windows so had to run the ac at night. Room smelled like mold but we couldn’t open the windows at night to air it out.

This little place was very nice. Only three bungalows, and a friendly host. There's a mini-kitchenette where you can do some basic cooking. Very close to the main drag that runs through town and not far from the waterfall.

It is on the small side. The kitchen should have had oil, salt and pepper provided. No microwave.

Amazing view of the volcano, well equipped self sufficient cabin with kitchen, clean and thoughtful room, coffee included, kind staff, tv has streaming services included, all comforts like hot water, AC, and wifi work well.

Gravel road to get to the hotel is a little bumpy and uber drivers have a difficult time finding the place - you have to tell them to turn right after the mini super. Lack of cellphone signal.

The excellent view ! Beautiful country. Pool was quite refreshing. Staff friendly courteous. Loved the air conditioning. Comfy beds.

Certainly a little more consideration given to the quality and amount of kitchen cutlery. The basics should include a real spatula not a wooden toy, more knives spoons, forks. MICROWAVE. OVEN A MUST. NOTE: The outdoor furniture in the middle cabin had 2 damaged torn seats. I won't dare sit in them.

Cute property just outside of town about 2.5 km from La Fortuna waterfall. There are only 3 bungalows and it’s very quiet here. Nice little pool with amazing views of the volcano. Cows grazing in the pasture right beside. The beds were VERY comfortable and the rooms very clean. Wifi good.

Everything was amazing! One of our favourite places we stayed. Only thing was maybe a breakfast option would be nice but this didn’t bother us.
