3BR Luxury Villa in Nicoya

The view is as great as pictured for this one! It definitely is the best part of the Airbnb. The drive up the hill is no joke like others have mentioned, but is majority paved and isn’t bad with a 4x4. The inside is solid and has what you need. Couch is a little firm but the beds are very comfy. Can’t beat the view!

5 stars — A slice of paradise above Santa Teresa! This house is truly special. Perched high on the hillside with sweeping ocean views and a stunning infinity pool that feels like it spills right into the Pacific — we spent an embarrassing amount of time just floating in it. Judit was an absolutely wonderful host — warm, responsive, and genuinely invested in making our stay exceptional. We took full advantage of the grocery delivery and on-site massages, both of which were fantastic touches that made the whole experience feel effortless. One practical note: The listing mentions this, but worth emphasizing — you’ll need a 4x4 or ATV to access the property. The ascent is steep, so plan accordingly and book the right vehicle in advance. Once you make it up though? Spectacular view! One of those places you talk about long after the tan fades.

The house is even more beautiful in real life than in the photos. The pool was perfectly refreshing, and monkeys come almost right up to the terrace—an incredible experience. The kitchen is basic but fully equipped, the beds are very comfortable, and the air conditioning worked perfectly. One important downside: the hot water did not function due to a major leak. We had to message each time to temporarily turn it on, which should not happen at this level of accommodation. Housekeeping was excellent—daily cleaning, fresh towels, and even laundry service once. The location is great, within walking distance of restaurants and shops. Santa Teresa is still relatively unspoiled and truly beautiful. Access requires a buggy or quad due to the steep hill, but Judit arranged everything perfectly—from rentals to unforgettable experiences like horseback riding, Turtle Island, and bioluminescent swimming. A fantastic stay overall, with one key issue to address.

A rustic bohemian villa on top of the hill. Amazing views of the lake and the beach. Nice bedrooms. The only thing that is boring is that the bedroom on the lower floor has no hooks to hang clothes. Everything else was up to expectations. The villa shows some signs of aging and good use. Just a little maintenance and everything will be great. Very good daily cleaning.

Host Response

Thank you Vemund for your review and for choosing to stay with us. It was truly a pleasure hosting you. We were a bit surprised to read about the concern regarding the hangers and the condition of the villa, as this was never mentioned to us during your stay. We always encourage our guests to let us know if anything is missing or not as expected, as we are very happy to resolve any issue immediately. In this case, additional hangers could have easily been provided within minutes or moved from another room. Our goal is always to ensure our guests have the best possible experience, and we pride ourselves on responding quickly whenever something is needed. We truly appreciate open communication so we can address things right away. Thank you again for staying with us, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future.

This Airbnb is absolutely stunning! It met our expectations plus more. The layout, with 3 King ensuite masters were perfect and very comfy beds as well. The pool, deck with hammocks and the infinity pool were hard to leave. The view is SPECTACULAR-We found ourselves not wanting to go explore because our place was so amazing and even my teenagers wanted to just hang and enjoy this beautiful space. There were also monkeys and parrots right off the deck a few times! Such a great spot.
