Tikita House: Downtown La Fortuna, Private Hot Tub and Five Bedrooms

Stay close to the everyday life of La Fortuna, with room for your group to come home together. Tikita House puts shops, restaurants and supermarkets within walking distance, then gives you a kitchen, living room and courtyard for the hours you want to spend at home. It is a practical choice for families or friends who like choosing dinner on foot and arranging transport for their bigger adventures.

A downtown base with space to gather
Start the day around the dining table or kitchen island, make coffee and decide what comes next. The kitchen has the essentials for preparing your own meals, so you can balance restaurant outings with breakfasts and dinners at home. The living room has sofas and a smart TV for a slower evening, and Wi-Fi helps you stay connected.

Outside, the courtyard brings another part of the group together. Enjoy the private hot tub, settle into the outdoor seating or plan a barbecue after a day out. This is a home in town, so you should expect the normal sounds of a neighborhood rather than a remote retreat.

Five bedrooms, with one separate cabin
Four bedrooms are in the main house, with a fifth in the backyard cabin:
• Bedroom 1: Master Room — one king bed in the main house.
• Bedroom 2 — one queen bed in the main house.
• Bedroom 3 — two separate twin beds in the main house, useful for guests who prefer their own bed.
• Bedroom 4 — one double bed in the main house.
• Bedroom 5: Backyard Cabin — one double bed in a separate cabin in the backyard, with its own bathroom. You reach this room through the outdoor area.

There are two bathrooms in total: Bathroom 1 in the main house and the Cabin Bathroom serving Bedroom 5. The separate cabin offers an independent sleeping space on the same property; keep the outdoor access in mind when deciding where young children should sleep. Ask us through Vrbo if you need more detail about room access before booking.

The bedroom mix gives couples and friends different ways to arrange their stay while keeping the shared spaces together. Air conditioning is available at the property; please ask about a particular room if that is important for your group.

Walk into town, plan transport for excursions
The house is about 200 meters from La Fortuna's central park, within walking distance of groceries, restaurants, cafés and shops. You can head out for a meal or pick up what you need without making every small errand a drive. The gated property also has covered parking for two cars.

Arenal attractions are spread beyond the town center. Plan transport for outings such as rainforest walks, the waterfall or hot springs, and confirm pickup details with your activity provider. Contact us through Vrbo for help planning your stay and to ask about any services, coordination or separate costs.

If you want a La Fortuna vacation rental that makes town easy to enjoy and still has places to gather at home, Tikita House may fit your trip. Send us your questions about the layout, or choose your dates when you are ready.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. A Smart television is provided for your entertainment. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
Enjoy the recreation opportunities such as a hot tub or make use of other amenities including barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

The Tikita Family House is in an excellent location in La Fortuna, within easy walking distance of many shops and restaurants. We loved how spacious it was for our family of five, and the beautiful outdoor area with the hot tub was a wonderful retreat after a long day of activities. We would absolutely recommend this property to anyone visiting La Fortuna.

Very nice place, took awhile to figure out a few things. No instructions on a few things but we managed. Nice area and close enough to town to walk to restaurants and shopping. Felt very safe there.

Perfect spot in Fortuna

This house was in a great location to allow for walking exploration of La Fortuna. It is also a quick drive from all the tourist spots. One room is in a separate building but it worked out nice for our crew. Hot tub was easy to run and the whole location felt safe and secure. We would stay again.

Arenal requirement: hot tub!!

Please do not get a unit in the area with a pool, it is too cold to hang out in. Get a unit with a hot tub!! This is a rare find for the area. You will not regret it.

Great time in La Fortuna

We stayed 3 nights at Tikita House near the end of our vacation. The property was exactly as described; clean and accommodated our 4 adults and 4 teens perfectly. This property has a very central location and easy walking around Fortuna town. Had some great meals, Danny recommended a few and Snapper’s was epic. We did a zip line at Arenal, lunch and walk around the observatory, Don Juan coffee/cocao tour, night jungle walk and enjoyed some time at El Salto rope swing. The hot tub was perfect after a day of touring and adventure. Great times in La Fortuna and at Tikita House…thanks Danny.

Great place for a family

This was a great property for the 6 people in our family. It was very clean. We liked having the ability to cook some of our meals, so we didn't have to eat out all the time. It is in a good location, which allowed us to walk to get food from the store and to restaurants for dinner. We booked excursions and had no problems with tour operators finding the property to pick us up. The hot tub was great for relaxing and cooling off in the evenings. I would definitely recommend this place if you are looking to stay in La Fortuna.

The property was in a great location. You could walk to town and was a short drive to most excursions. The kitchen was well stocked. The only negative was that one bedroom didn’t have air conditioning, just a fan. But I would stay there again.
