This was such a beautiful location—in the rainforest right outside the gate of Volcanoes National Park. The host does a great job at responding to messages and in providing all the information needed for the stay. He gives all the tips you need for a comfortable stay, including a video on how to operate the wood stove. My stay wasn’t long enough to get the hang of how to keep the stove going all night so it wasn’t so cold in the morning (outside the bedroom, that is, as there is a heater for the sleeping space). I would return tomorrow if I could. As other reviewers note, the road on which the house is located is quite rough (it’s about a mile long). 4WD is not necessary but I would be wary of the potholes if you are in a car with a low profile. Just an FYI—the windows had no coverings; the house feels pretty secluded in the greenery but at night I could see lights from the next house through the bedroom windows.
