Great private location, just far enough from town to feel peaceful and secluded. The house is spacious, calm, quiet, and surrounded by beautiful nature. The service was excellent the staff was very kind, polite, and quick to respond. The house was clean and comfortable, with plenty of privacy. A great place if you’re looking to disconnect, relax, and enjoy nature.

The pool villa is very nice. It is located a bit off the beaten track and is surrounded by jungle. We were able to see some animals there. The bedrooms are upstairs and well air-conditioned. We spent a lot of time sitting outside on the terrace. However, the centerpiece is the upper area of the property with the infinity pool.

Nice enough place but fairly basic amenities. Good spot for a home base if you plan to be out exploring a lot. Toilets are horrible and “gurgle” out smelly gasses randomly. Patio furniture is all old, ripped and needs replacing. Pool is clean and refreshing.
Host Response
Hello Alisha, Thank you for your words, which we value a lot and help us to find the solutions. It is a shame that you did not mentioned them while you were here.

We had a lovely stay here. It was like staying at a resort. We got traditional Costa Rican breakfast, however they also offered an amaerican option. We felt right at home, it was private and since we went on the off season, we had the whole place to ourselves. The main infinity pool was amazing, they had a lookout, pool table and our villa was right in the jungle. would stay there again!

It’s an amazing place to stay, right in the middle of the Costa Rica nature. There are beautiful birds, butterflies, monkeys surrounding you right where you stay! Such a peaceful place!

We felt very comfortable. The place was even more beautiful than described. A dream to sit upstairs and look over the great landscape. Ricardo was super helpful and gave us a great tour guide for Corcovado National Park. The wildlife at the property was an unforgettable experience. Aras, the (house) Lizzard, hummingbirds and skull and capuchal monkeys.

Paradise place in the jungle, completely private we were able to enjoy our pool and terrace in peace. Only the animals came to see us, as we hoped on the Corcovado border, monkeys, toucans , macaws , coati , and many others. A dive into nature, with the comfort of a home and thoughtful hosts.

Very nice little villa, in the middle of no anywhere. If you are looking for privacy with a pool in nature, you will absolutely find it here. The only blemish is the general cleanliness, which should be better at the estimated price.

If you're looking for an unforgettable Costa Rican nature experience, this place is for you. Immersed in the rainforest, we saw toucans, scarlett macaws, both capuchin and squirrel monkeys, and lots of other wildlife. The private pool is such a luxury, but the main infinity pool and hot tub provide stunning views from the top of a picturesque hill. Breakfast is also served here, very tasty, and we were seated on a lovely patio overlooking the Golfo Dulce. Would definitely stay with Richie again, as he and his staff were friendly and attentive to anything we needed.

We had a great time staying at Villa 4 and later at the owner's villa. Ricardo offered us a free upgrade for the remaining two nights of our stay. The complex is extensive and we were able to observe monkeys, toucans, aras and other animals from our respective terraces.

While rinsing off from the pool using the outdoor shower, I watched howler monkeys in the trees! A short walk from the Villa is one of the most beautiful ranchos in Costa Rica. Swimming while overlooking the Gulf, jungle with macaws and toucans, and the mountains on the other side is amazing. Loved the walk to the rancho because we saw lots of animals, but you can drive too. Good place to stay if you have your own vehicle and bring all your food, as facilities aren’t close. We drove to Matapalo and Puerto Jimenez, and there’s a hiking trail on property. It was very hot in the bedrooms at the beginning of the night, even with all of the fans going. There just wasn’t any air flow. Not sure if it’s always that way. Wished there was a plastic or metal chair to use after using the pool at the villa as I didn’t want to sit on cushions with wet bathing suit. And iguanas liked to sit on the swinging chairs lol! Richie and family were very nice and communicative and space was big and private.
