La Fortuna Waterfall
A 70-meter fall inside a 210-hectare reserve — the closest you can sleep to it.

A perfect rating across every guest who has stayed with us. Here's what a few of them said.

“Beautiful house. Very nice owners. Great place to stay. I hope to come back here again. I recommend it wholeheartedly.”

“Ziba Lodge is brand new, immaculately clean, beautifully decorated and landscaped, and thoughtfully equipped for travelers. The house is close to all that La Fortuna offers. We had a wonderful stay!”

“We loved our stay at Ziba Lodge. Waking up each morning with the direct view of the Arenal volcano was truly special. The private pool was one of our favorite spots to relax after exploring La Fortuna. The house is very well equipped, with everything you need to feel at home, and you can tell the care taken in every detail. The beds are extremely comfortable — we rested perfectly every night. Without a doubt we would come back and we recommend it to anyone looking for comfort, privacy, and a spectacular view of the volcano.”

“This place is hands down the best Airbnb you can find in La Fortuna for location and quality. Minutes from central La Fortuna and close to just about any excursion you can do. SUPER clean house and super safe area, which was a must for us with little kids. We will definitely be coming back to Ziba Lodge when we return to La Fortuna. You can't beat this rental!”

“Great place! We loved our stay.”

“The place was very clean and new. There was gated access so it felt very secure. The communication from Rojas was exceptional.”

“Our family of 4 had an amazing stay in La Fortuna! The home looked and felt brand new, with all the amenities we would need during our stay. The location was minutes away from downtown La Fortuna (by drive) but also had restaurants and markets within walking distance. Wagner has excellent communication throughout and checked on us regularly to ensure we had everything we needed. He also provided a guide for us ahead of time which was greatly appreciated. I would highly recommend Zibâ Lodge for anyone but especially for families that want a comfortable, stylish place to call home while exploring La Fortuna.”

“Visitamos Ziba Lodge en familia, la cabaña es espectacular. Todas las comodidades posibles y al pie del Volcán Arenal. La piscina y el jacuzzi fueron lo mejor para los pequeños. Los cuartos súper cómodos, cada uno con aire acondicionado, y la cocina muy cómoda. La Fortuna está muy bien ubicada — los restaurantes y supermercados a la mano. Nos cayó una lluvia con tormenta que hizo la experiencia más genuina.”
