2/10
We didn’t receive the address until we were driving to La Fortuna from the airport in Liberia— just before check-in on the same day as check-in. She was friendly, and responsive on the VRBO app, but we never got an actual address, just map coordinates. I understand that things are different in other countries. I have travelled before and respect other cultures. But this was NOT LOCATED IN LA FORTUNA. We had to drive a half hour out of the actual town to get to the property. It was really out in the middle of nowhere. Not knowing the area or this country (I am pretty decent with speaking Spanish but this was really unfamiliar territory) this was not at all what we were looking for. Looking back at the listing it said “Stay in La Fortuna” and there were no details to say it was located so far out in another Villiage or countryside. I asked the host to clarify this on the listing, so others would not make this assumption I made by the misdirection on the listing. In fact we couldn’t even have known until we arrived as she didn’t sent the address in the “Welcome Email” that is sent in advance. It is possible this is an amazing house and property. We didn’t stay. It just wasn’t comfortable not knowing anything and being in an unfamiliar territory. I am still waiting on refund….
