Like being welcomed into the exotic home of friend

DFW58 SF area, California, USA
Review Submitted: August 6, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
This was a great beginning to our 16-day trip - like being welcomed into the exotic home of friends. Overall rating: 5

House: 4.5 - The description barely does this place justice. This is a real house, cool airy design & easy to keep clean. Huge comfortable beds, nice seating areas and outside spaces, and an amazing, ever changing view of the lake nearby. Lots of DVDs, satellite TV/radio, etc. The washer and dryer were a godsend after rafting. The unheated pool was a little cool for our Green Season stay, but our two 10 year-olds used it every day anyway; I bet it's perfect during the hot season. The internet was down, but we weren't craving email that early in the trip, so that wasn't a factor for us.

Kitchen: 4.5 - Not a big fan of electric ranges, but this kitchen was still a pleasure. Nice size fridge w/good freezer, range, and oven, with lots of pans, utensils, and appliances. I really enjoyed the adventure of working with the local supplies to make some pretty good meals.

Location: 5 - Elegant base for day trips to Fortuna and other adventures, though Monteverde is better as an over-nighter (we did it on our way to Manual Antonio [property 150823], which worked well, though I don't recommend the hotel Helaconia). You do need a car to get around. We alternated horse riding, rafting (class 2-4), & zip-lining w/days at just hanging out at home. A few nice walks near the property: we saw howler monkeys, lots of birds, and some truly wild bugs (mantises, moths, grasshoppers, etc.) up close. None of the bugs seemed to be biters despite the lake being so close. There are a few nice restaurants within 15 mins drive, though we generally ate in.

Welcome: 5 - The owners stayed in contact with lots of great information, answers to questions, and suggestions. They, and their rep in country, really went out of their way to be welcoming. Billing was easy and spread across two payments, which was nice. The price was a real value!

Review Submitted: April 22, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
We had a wonderful time in Costa Rica and Casa Gavilan was lovely! Lake Arenal was the perfect place for us to stay. We had an amazing adventure everyday...horseback riding to the volcano, the hanging bridges, zip lining, Monteverde (be sure to get a guide - Oscar, if possible - well worth the money), the beach, the mosic church in Canas, and even found the family my grandmother lived with when she was in the peace corp 25 years ago! Casa Gavilan has everything you could possibly need...400 DVDs, wonderful guide and reference books, meticulous grounds, the great bird feeders, comfy chairs and table on the patio, a lovely pool, anything you could possibly need in the kitchen, and you gotta love the washer and dryer, too! We would suggest you book your reservation today!

Review Submitted: April 12, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
We stayed at this beautiful home for 10 days and LOVED it. It is very comfy with a great pool & bird watching. Nuevo Arenal is a great location for day trips to Cano Negro, Arenal Volcano & the Hanging Bridges, Rio Celeste, Monteverde and more. This is also a great place just to chill & relax with a great view of the lake and lots of birds and monkeys. As owners of a vacation rental home in Maine we were very impressed with the breakfast left at the house for us when we arrived and all the great books & info on the area. Do yourself a favor and stay at this place, the only hard thing is leaving. Pura Vida

Review Submitted: April 6, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
We rated our trip to Costa Rica as one of our best ever. Casa Gavilan played a huge part in making it so. Ian and Lynn have made their house very inviting, comfortable and furnished with everything we needed. We fell asleep each night listening to the howler monkeys and awoke to the same each morning. We never tired of watching the myriad of birds at the feeder. The people were great there, Ed was a gracious and helpful host, we met several of Ian's neighbors and locals, all of whom were very friendly, we fell in love with Monica at the Lucky Bug - in fact all of Ian's and Ed's recommendations were spot on. There was plenty to do or not do and the Casa is well located for that. I would highly recommend Casa Gavilan to anyone traveling to the area.

Our stay at Casa Gavilan was amazing. The house exceeded our expectations. We enjoyed waking up to all the beautiful birds and the Howler Monkeys in the distance. The grounds are beautiful. Ian and Lynn have made the house very comfortable and welcoming. We enjoyed all the many books on Costa Rica and used the bird fact sheets everyday. Our college students made good use of the computer to send a few e-mails to their friends. Ian and Lynn have thought of everything you could need on your vacation. The house was clean and well maintained. Caretakers Ed and Leslie were very helpful with suggestions and information. It was so nice to have coffee and breakfast in the house for us for our first morning. We went to the Gingerbread and Lucky Bug restaurants twice and had our best meals there. We visited the area around Arenal Volcano, Eco Termales Hot Springs, drove to Manuel Antonio, Monteverde and Cano Negro. It was a perfect week and our kids said this was one of our best vacations! Ian and Lynn were very easy to deal with and very personable. They were quick to answer any questions I had about their house and Costa Rica. We will definitely go back to Casa Gavilan!
