Guest Reviews
"What a lovely spot surrounded by lush plants, with mornings awash in birdsong. The Finca is truly a unique experience, and Austin and Abby are generous hosts, keen to share all they've created on the property, the fruit they're going and the animals they care for. The house is comfortable, open and airy, with a great view of the volcano. The rock pool with waterfall is truly a treat!"
"We had an amazing stay at Finca Cabeza Gorda! Austin & Abby are exceptional hosts who made us feel at home from the start. They even welcomed us with fresh, delicious produce from their farm—a perfect way to start our stay.
Don’t miss the farm tour! It’s a unique, hands-on experience where we tasted seasonal fruits and even made our own sugar cane juice. This kind of tour would easily cost a premium elsewhere, but here, it’s part of the incredible hospitality.
The location is fantastic—close enough to La Fortuna for easy access to activities, yet tucked away in the countryside for a peaceful retreat with stunning views of Arenal. The house itself is spotless, modern, and beautifully designed, with everything you could possibly need and more. The outdoor spaces are a dream—a great pool, bar area, and outdoor dining spaces.
Huge thanks to Austin & Abby for their hospitality and local expertise—this was one of our most memorable Airbnb stays. Highly recommend!"

"We had a great stay! Abby and Austin were extremely accommodating and warmly welcomed us and gave us many tips for activities. We were particularly enthusiastic about the guided tour of their farm and sugar cane. Thanks for your time Austin! The house itself is very beautiful – with lovingly designed interior design. The pool and barbecue area are also super nicely laid out. Everything was clean, cozy, and exactly as described. We felt completely comfortable and would come back anytime. Thank you for the unforgettable time!"
