"The home is just beautiful, exactly as pictured and we had a wonderful time. The concierge met us at the home to help us settle in, provided us with immigration letters and great recommendations for activities and a fantastic chef /caterer that we scheduled to prepare us dinner for our wedding anniversary. It was magical.The location was more difficult to get to than we had anticipated, it was over a mile off road and even with a 4x4, it was nerve racking driving up the hill especially in the dark after the few times we went out for dinner. An ATV would have been a better option but we had traveled from San Jose so we could stay at other locations during our trip. However just down the hill from the house was a spectacular waterfall. One other thing we weren’t expecting but were told upon arrival is the likelihood of losing power which happened a few times, however the home has solar panels so a lot of things like lights, fridge etc are still working fine. Lots of easy day excursions and beach options. Would highly recommend to anyone. "

"Nothing short of amazing! "

"Perfect place for relaxing, friendly staff and great food. Too bad the jacuzzi was not working at warm temperature. Looks like they ate renovating, worth visiting again after renovation. "

"Check in was easy and efficient. Property is beautiful with lots of wildlife, frogs, toucans, lizards and butterflies. Could use some updates to make the house more comfortable, i.e. mattress in master bedroom, couch cushions and pool/patio furniture."

"My family and I loved this place. Chris and Greg are great hosts. Greg met us to take us to the property and showed us everything at the house. I stayed with my wife and 3 daughters, ages 1 through 9 and they had a blast. Loved the pool and we saw a lot of birds, macaws, toucans, etc. we also saw and heard the monkeys. We didn’t stay there the whole time because we like adventures, but you could easily stay there the entire time. The views of this place literally made our trip. We went during rain season and the last night we were able to see the sunset. I have seen some great sunsets, but this one was the best of the best.I recommend this villa to anyone, even if you are coming with small children.We truly loved it. Thanks Chris and Greg! "

"Location was amazing and the villa was stunning. Waking up to the jungle surroundings through the bedroom was fantastic. Beautiful quiet area with a great soda nearby. Wishes we’d booked 3 nights!"

"Due to the rain we had a ton of bugs in the room. It was kinda gross. Otherwise things were great! Also the road up to the resort was very brutal. Luckily our driver was a good sport."

"Highly recommended. Facility is outstanding. Only thing better is the service from staff. One of the best vacations I have ever been on. "

"The property was as described with no running water due to construction in the area. The road was dirt with lots of pot holes. It was almost impassable. The property owner responded the first day about no hot water. No answer at all about not having any water at all."
