Amazing stay at Chris and Nadia Horizon Lodge. Highly recommended if you stay around Potrero.
Pros: The appartments have a breathtaking views. Chris and Nadia are wonderful hosts and very welcoming. The area is quiet and everything was very clean. You do need a transportation to get there but the view worth it.

Perfect stay!
Pros: The property is beautiful, gorgeous views over the coast and sunset. The apartment itself is spacious, spotless, comfy kingsized bed and had great facilities: aircon and the shower were the best we had in a 6week long trip! The pool/yoga/lounge space is perfect - such a peaceful haven! The apartment was the perfect luxury we needed, and exceeded all our expectations. Chris was so attentive, he drove us to the local supermarket and back as the walk is about 30 minutes, Chris gave us local takeaway delivery number incase we wanted this too. He also booked us a shuttle to La Fortuna for a very reasonable price. Chris made our stay really lovely and we would come back in a heartbeat!
Cons: Nothing - all was perfect!

Beautiful rental in the middle of greenery
Pros: Beautiful rental in the middle of greenery, perfect for anyone seeking peace and tranquility in a natural setting. Clean and bright space. The bed is comfortable. The kitchen is spotless clean and well equipped. Secure parking is available. Nice and quiet beach is within 10 minutes drive. The terrace offered a stunning view of the ocean, serving as the perfect backdrop for our mornings and evenings. The host family is super helpful, friendly, and discreet, responding immediately to all our questions and requests (leaving nearby) We truly enjoyed our time here and would love to return!
Cons: Given the price range of the property, the bedding (which was polyester) and the kitchen pans (damaged non-stick coating) could have been of better quality. Additionally, the apartment has poor sound insulation, and you can hear the neighbors quite clearly.

Relaxing Honeymoon
Pros: Super beautiful view !! They offer great vacation services like snorkeling. (For extra price but it is worth it) We stayed here for our honeymoon, and the owners decorated it for us for the special occasion! Super kind owners from Sweden who speak many languages !

Our Best-Equipped Stay in Costa Rica
Pros: They've done a wonderful job with this property! This was our 8th accommodation on this trip to Costa Rica, and it had the best of all worlds. Quiet enough to feel remote, but connected to groceries, gas, and services in town. Fantastic A/C in the common space and both bedrooms. A thorough cleaning job, enough towels for a family of 4 (including pool towels), and a very well-equipped kitchen. The owners were so kind to accommodate early check-in so that our young daughters could get settled; they even brought them a high chair and kids' chairs, which they adored! The view from the pool is gorgeous and we appreciated the little outdoor gym, too. We watched the cleaning team wipe down outdoor railings and dust off loungers. They're clearly taking pride in keeping this place up. We would definitely stay again!
Cons: The property is having some problems accepting card payments through Booking.com. Like some other visitors, we selected to prepay and assumed our payment had been processed - especially as nothing was said about still needing to pay during check-in. The owner had messaged me via WhatsApp with a PayPal link the day prior. We're wary of PayPal, so I reached out to customer service before arrival to ask them to please just charge my payment method on file, since that was what I opted for at the time of booking, anyway. Apparently, the property doesn't allow Booking to do this, and the owner sent me WhatsApp messages that evening to settle payment. We eventually got it sorted out with a guest link. While we sympathize with their predicament, as customers, we felt the whole thing could've been handled more professionally (at check-in, in the daylight, and/or communicated through Booking.com chat, where we'd previously corresponded.)

Our stay was Fantastic, didn’t want to leave!
Pros: Chris and Nadia are wonderful hosts, they were there to greet us upon arrival and the check in was smooth and easy and we felt at home right away. Our place was spacious, clean, well appointed and with comfortable beds. This place is very peaceful, quiet with absolutely stunning views. We enjoyed the outdoor workout area and the infinity pool overlooking expansive mountain and ocean views. We rented a car and it was easy access to the town for any needs and you are minutes to several gorgeous beaches. We stayed here for 8 nights and made a great decision and will definitely be back.
Cons: Everything was perfect.
