Studio Apartment. Volcano view from terrace.

Laughing Falcon...A studio apartment perfect for two. A quality space that is part of a duplex on a shared property. Queen bed, air conditioning, 2 burner induction stove, refrigerator/freezer, tiled carport, private terrace, views of Arenal Volcano & jungle from the terrace, walking trails, many activities near. ONLY Room for TWO.

For a couple only. You will love it here...a great place at an excellent price in an area of rural Costa Rica that is authentic and unspoiled. Your water comes from a spring 2 miles in the jungle. It is pure and perhaps the best you have ever had. The air you breathe is generally blowing through over 150,000 acres of the CHILDREN'S ETERNAL RAIN FOREST with no cities, factories and no contamination. Beef here is grass fed, chickens free range. Many of the veggies are organic. The fruit is unbeatable. We are not kid-friendly, pets not allowed, smoking in the studio or on the terrace is not allowed. If you smoke on the terrace or in the house, your security deposit in full will NOT be refunded. Just a heads up. We want our next guests to come into Laughing Falcon with smiles on their faces, just as we want you to arrive.

Please remember you are in a remote part of a third world country. While we have internet, it is at times spotty or even non-existent. If you desperately need the internet at a particular moment, you will ALWAYS find internet at the restaurants in El Castillo, about 10 minute drive down our.

The Studio apartment is part of a duplex. The other half is occupied by a young family...Lilliam, Adan, their daughter, Dianna., and son Eliazer. They help us on a part time basis, cleaning and helping with our tropical garden. They are rural workers and are often up about 6:00. You might hear them. They return for lunch as a family, often talking about the day and during lunch are often a bit noisy. They are usually gone with friends in the evenings. But there will be some noise as there always is with neighbors.

YOUR SPACE
Our studio apartment, the trails and gardens, the terrace on your apartment, the parking space, the jungle trails that lead to the river, the surrounding jungle, the volcano views, the peace and quiet, the fresh air, the relaxation...All are yours to enjoy

GUEST INTERACTION
We can help with reservations for things to do and places to see. We will help in any way we can, but only when you want help or information. You can get a hold of us by Whats App or drive down to the Welcome Center.

THE NEIGHBORHOOD
You will be able to do most anything this part of Costa Rica is famous for, within a 30 to 40 minute drive. Zip lines are the best anywhere. Hanging Bridges are amazing. Butterfly Conservancy, one of the only ones in the world that actually raises all of its butterflies. Hot Springs are the best in Costa Rica, and all within easy driving distance from here. Horse-back riding nearby with an assortment of trips available. A local Art Gallery and fresh herb shop, right here. Your choice. You can walk to our private waterfall right from the house and be one of a very limited number of people in the world who have visited that particular spot. The rivers that split into a "V" by the waterfall are the rivers that lull you to sleep from the apartment. And from the terrace you will see the Turkey Vultures and hawks fly so close you can see the reflections off their eyes. You will almost certainly hear the Toucans, the Laughing Falcons as you sit outside on the terrace. Between 8 and 10 most mornings, the White Hawks screech and fly from their home high in the rain forest and often sit and hunt nearby. Spider Monkeys and Howler Monkeys are heard most days and often seen in the trees that fringe the jungle behind the house. There is so much to do you could spend a week and only dent the surface. We are in an area where only a few speak English, but somehow everyone gets by. We will tell you about great lunch and dinner places and a nearby place to buy groceries so you can cook your own meals. In El Castillo about 10 minutes away, you will find a small grocery store, several restaurants, a church, a butterfly conservancy, an art gallery/bakery and views as you drive up the mountain you can only imagine, but will remember for many years. Bird watching and bird photography is amazing. John is a photographer and has photographed hundreds right on our property. Hummingbirds are abundant and if you rise early in the morning you will be blessed with a wide variety of shapes, colors and sizes. the only challenge will be to choose between them and the sunrise on the volcano.

GETTING AROUND
You will want a 4WD vehicle. The roads to our home are gravel and rock. When it rains there are potholes. You will be a lot happier with a small 4WD here and in most areas of Costa Rica. While there is a lot to see within walking distance of the house, there are many activities that require a 10 to 45 minute drive. You will not be happy waiting for a cab to arrive either coming of going.

OTHER THINGS
From your rental you will be able to access our Tropical garden with banana trees, coffee, pineapples, mangoes, avocados and many flowering shrubs and jungle plants. There is a small covered garden with wild Orchids that have been removed from trees in the jungle that have been blown down in storms. There is our private jungle trail to Walden falls, where guests see monkeys about 60% of the time on an early morning walk.

Great stay in the middle of the jungle
The property is the last on the road with a great view to the forest. However it was not as lonely as we thought since there is another house slightly obscuring the view to the volcano on the same property. The studio was generally clean and furnishings are somewhat aged. A general deep cleaning everywhere would be nice. Augustin was very good with conversations from the beginning to the end. Overall it was a great stay in the middle of the forest.

Volcano get away
Every where you look from this property there is a beautiful view. Not just the volcano but also the jungle and the lake; absolutely stunning. We walked down the trail to Walden falls and it was our favorite part of the day. Don’t miss out on the local restaurant halfway down the hill. Fabulous food, people, and views. The bed was comfortable and the space was very comfortable for two people.

We actually didnt stay at this exact apartment due to not having 4WD (which is definitely required), but the welcome center was more than helpful. Since we didnt have the right car to get up the long rocky driveway, they put us in another apartment down the street with an arguably better view! it was clean, in a beautiful location with lots of birdwatching to do!

Fantastic secluded villa
The house had a beautiful jungle view and volcano view. The property also has a nice adventurous hike to a waterfall (where the owners provide mud shoes for convenience ) The long driveway would be a bit difficult without 4 wheel drive.but this was communicated to us well in advance.

Great stay
It was really a great stay. Every little thing was considered. The studio was perfectly equipped, quiet in a beautiful setting. There was even a small Christmas tree for us. The welcome from Welcome Center Explore El Castillo CR was also very friendly. Thank you for the great time. P.S. We managed the road without 4 wheel. It was okay with a car class 2 and a good driver. Fortuna/Monteverde is really really touristic. But the studio is away from all this. Don't mind to book.

Breathtaking!
The Laughing Falcon is the perfect spot for nature lovers and bird watchers! The view from the porch is spectacular with the rainforest and Arenal volcano in the background. There was enough to do and see around the Laughing Falcon that I could have stayed put all week between birdwatching, walking the mountain, hiking down to our personal waterfall, visiting the garden, and resting in the many great spots provided. But, we did venture out daily to visit nearby “attractions”. There are so many things to do within a 45 minute drive. The little book provided in our VRBO was very helpful in providing information about the location including where to buy groceries, the nearby activities, and what to look for on the property. The kitchen had just the right amenities for us to make meals. Our garbage was taken daily and mid week we were provided with clean towels and bedding. The host for this property was wonderful! He was very friendly and patient with us (we got there a bit later than anticipated). Throughout the week he was available at the Welcome Center for questions. There are only a few things I would say that could have made it even better. The bathroom could use an exhaust fan. There were some small details missing but nothing major. The tenants next door were sweet and helpful but there were some minor daily noise distractions. With that being said, we would definitely stay at this location again!

Amazing view and great staff to work with.
We loved our stay. The staff was easy to talk to and answered any questions. We had the power kick off and when we talked to the property manager they reached out to the other locations nearby to see if they had lost it too. Power was restored within 15 minutes. The location was very clean and had mud boots to use on the hike down to the waterfall and streams.

Stunning
This place was absolutely incredible. From waking to the sound of toucans, to seeing Arenal appear through misty fog bordered by rainforest, a magical walk to the property’s waterfall, the kindness of every person we interacted with on the mountain (neighbor property managers, managers at Phoenix restaurant where one can receive breakfast, and so many others), and the cleanliness of the space - everything was stunning. We would love to return. Thank you to everyone who made this such a wonderful stay.

Amazing views and perfectly stocked
This place was magical! The view of the volcano from the porch was beautiful in the mornings, and cloud covered and mystical in the evenings. The land in front of the home is lush, manicured and stunning. The last mile or so is a rough road so I do recommend a 4x4 vehicle. Many activities available within a 30 minute drive including Volcano hike, (free) hot springs, zip lining, rappelling, hanging bridges, La Fortuna waterfall. There is an induction cooktop with two burners and a microwave so cooking was easy. It is a studio but spacious and very comfortable. I could easily be comfortable there for an extended months long stay!

Gorgeous view, comfortable and very clean.
The mile up the hill on rutted roads is tough. You will want an SUV. But the views are amazing. The place has all you need, including loaner umbrellas and binoculars. Incredibly clean. We made sandwiches upon arrival and went out on the deck to eat them. I dropped a piece of cheese. When I picked it up, there was no visible dirt on it. We were outside! Astonishing. We dropped laundry at the caretaker next door and at the end of the day it was clean, folded, in our unit for $5 a load. Quiet and peaceful but not far from attractions and shopping. Breakfast at the restaurant down the hill is included. We hope to be back some day.
