The pictures don’t lie, there is an incredible view from the hammock and the chairs beside the hot tub- very clear picture of the pacific with stunning sunsets. The place is surrounded by million dollar homes, I felt safe as there was a security officer down the road from the location. The downside is that the place felt much smaller than the pictures make you feel- but you get used to it. The rock solid bed on the other hand was something I had a very hard time with. I got to meet lots of cool critters outside such as a giant toad (I mean giant), these little rodents that look like a cross between a hare/ginny pig/groundhog. The bathroom was very clean and I appreciated having body wash available as I had run out after traveling these last 2 weeks. The location isn’t far from Dominical, I wouldn’t walk due to the wild drivers. Great location, clear instructions, everything you need to cook is provided with the exception of some oils/spices/etc.
Host Response
Thank you so much for your thoughtful review and for choosing to stay with us. We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and feedback. Guest comments are incredibly valuable to us, as they help us continue improving and providing the best possible stay for future visitors. Regarding the bed, we were sorry to hear that it was not as comfortable as you had hoped. You are actually the first guest to mention this, and we were surprised to hear it, as the mattress is new and considered one of the highest-quality options available in Costa Rica. Of course, comfort is very personal, and we genuinely appreciate you sharing your perspective. Based on your feedback, we will explore adding a memory foam topper to create an even more comfortable sleeping experience for future guests. Regarding the oil and spices, I sincerely apologize for any confusion. We do provide cooking oil, salt, and pepper, and there are additional spices available inside the kitchen cabinets. We understand how helpful these items are when preparing meals, and we’re sorry if their location was not clear during your stay. Your feedback helps us identify ways to make these amenities easier for guests to find. Thank you again for your kind words, your valuable suggestions, and for being our guest. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back again in the future.

Lisette and David’s property was a dream! Beautiful view, perfect dipping pool under the shade, hammock bliss, and loved the wide opening sliding glass doors. They were both super friendly, responsive, and accommodating. The view was spectacular and the kitchen had everything we needed and more to cook numerous home cooked meals. Highly recommend!

We found everything very easily and was kindly greeted by a large Iguana (I secretly believe he was part of security 🤣). We were able to relax in the pool and watch the sunset. The place was clean and had everything needed. We were close to all the places we wanted to visit in the area and we were always able to come home to a wondeful nights rest. thank you for having us.

A little difficult to find but totally worth it. We needed a good home base and we found it close to Quepos, Nauyaca Waterfall and Uvita. Stunning views from the villa of Playa Dominical. Highly recommend!

If you like overlooking rose bushes out to the ocean in a hammock or jumping into the swimming pool right out the door this place might be it for YOU. There is a cafe nearby (about 5 mins away on foot), the beach is very close, I was able to walk everywhere. If you’re walking you will have to walk up three separate steep heels to get to the home but it’s totally worth it. The hosts are incredibly helpful, very communicative, reply quickly, and very kind. The home is well equipped and very comfortable. I can’t think how this place could get any better !!

Such a special retreat. The road to the property is steep, mix of pavement and gravel. Directions were great! Have to climb about 25 steps, but there is a railing. Lockbox is easy to operate. Furnishings were as expected. The view however...as much as you might be ready for it, you never are. Enjoyed seeing surfers and paddle boarders out in the morning hours, and the sunset at night. The pool was refreshing and the hammock was comfortable. I especially appreciated the quick responses to any questions. Do yourself a favor and stay here!

Our stay was perfect. This was our second visit to the Villa and we’re so glad it met all of our expectations again. It is so clean and cozy. The view every morning is spectacular!

We enjoyed our stay. An amazing view. Clean shared pool. You have to know that you have to climb steps to get there. Very clear instructions. Look carefully at the instructions for the door, because sometimes it's difficult to open. We highly recommend the accommodation, a little slice of heaven. Everything was there for the kitchen. Host responds very quickly! There were also very useful beach towels.

Beautiful home and amazing view. The drive to the villa was a little stressful but all around we had an amazing time. Host recommended a whale watching tour which we loved!

Lissette’s place was absolutely perfect for our first stop in Costa Rica. The villa had breathtaking views of the beach, was very clean, and was extremely well maintained — immersed in lush tropical trees, flowers, and plants. The size of the villa was just right for two, with a full kitchen and modern bathroom. The best part was waking up in the morning with coffee, sitting on the porch and watching all of the wildlife wake up while watching the surfers hit the beach. Toucans, macaws, hummingbirds, were all over. It was very close to Dominical restaurants and a short drive to popular tourist destinations. The drive up to the place the first go around was *an experience, but absolutely worth it! If you want peace, tranquility, and a million dollar view, this is your place!
