Reviews of Chongos Place

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.

Excellent location in La Fortuna, joungle sounds but no sounds from the streets. Very friendly owner. Beautiful garden and….the Arenal view. I highly recommend. :-)

The shower could be a bit better (but that is a tiny problem).

Very lovely, peaceful, convenient location.

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

Soooooo Great. Perfect little Casita with comfortable bed and unobscured volcano view from the porch. Host is wonderful. Family friendly, host family has 2 young children. Highly recommend!

I loved everything about this place! Beautiful view of the volcano, beautiful garden, beautiful birds, including toucans very close by. Pool with waterfall was relaxing as was the swing seat on the porch. Close enough to get around La Fortuna and Arenal. Highly recommend!!

Quiet, peaceful location, next to countryside, views of the volcano, lovely small pool to cool off, secure parking area - nearest decent shop restaurants quite a distance if you're walking

Cooking facilities and equipment were limited

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.

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.

Clean, friendly staff and nice area.

Parking, but only because they were working on it. The screaming child from the property behind us until 10 at night.

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.

I loved the little touches. The pool with a view of the arenal. Netflix to watch when raining in the evening. Kitchenette area to make light meals.

There wasn’t anything not to like.

Cute spot near all the attractions but far enough away from the city.

I absolutely loved my stay at Chongo's place! The view to the volcano and the swimming pool were incredible, it was super quiet and the bed was very comfortable so I slept like a baby. Everything was very clean and the owner was very friendly and helpful. I would definitely go back :)

Everything was great!

The garden with a view to the volcano was amazing. The area is very tranquil.

Great view over the volcano!

Quiet; away from busy roads; well equipped, pool, view of volcano; friendly staff.

Nothing

Such a great place with such a nice view of the Volcano (if it isn't covered in clouds ;))
