Villa mariposa was a beautiful place and we loved staying here. It was close to La Fortuna about 15 minutes. The view was incredible of the Arenal volcano. We felt extremely safe at all times. Gerald and his team of hosts went above and beyond in relation with communication and recommendations. We had a small issue with our rental car and Gerald gave us immediate help when we inquired about where we could take it to get it looked at. His lovely wife prepared a delicious breakfast by for us one morning. We loved our stay and loved everything about Costa Rica!

The Mariposa Morada is a great base for exploring Arenal and the area around El Tanque and La Fortuna. Serendipitously, it is a walkable distance to a very good coffee and chocolate tour and there are sodas and a nearby minisuper. The house has private suites, and roof deck with great views of Arenal, outdoor entertaining, and a little pool for cooling off after hikes and adventures. If you are lucky and don't move too quickly you may be visited by bright songbirds, geckos, tree frogs, and basilisk lizards.

This place is a treasure! Close to everything and spotless and very private, would absolutely stay here again! I can't say enough great things about it. And as an added bonus, the host Gerald is a local treasure ❤️. If you are in La Fortuna and want an experience that's beyond the tourist path, contact Gerald for a day you won't forget. Calling him a guide is feels like an understatement. He is a master storyteller, local expert, and simply the best! Within 30 seconds of our arrival, he had already spotted amazing wildlife! Gerald will make your day amazing. You may even get some fresh coconut! 6 Stars for this house and Gerald. 😎
