Positives: -Absolutely Epic view. The house is perched on a hill with 180 degrees of pacific blue. I have never seen a view like this! -house was very clean. Rooms were big. -John and the management team were great. They are extremely responsive even at odd hours. He gave us recommendations for activities and booked them for us. All of there recs were top notch. -It’s the last house on the hill so it felt very safe. -incredible outdoor sound system surrounding the entire pool area that projects at the house like an amphitheater. -definitely get the private chef Marco. Excellent food and overall experience for a decent price. Negatives: -out of their control but they were doing construction on a building next door that started at 6am which was a wake up call. -Not walkable, you will definitely need a rental car. -WiFi only worked in the outside living area, however John mentioned that they are upgrading this now to extend to the bedrooms. Overall it exceeded expectations.

We were amazed by the outdoor living space and phenomenal views. The property features beautiful flowers and lush vegetation along with fascinating wildlife. It was the perfect setting for our family to spend the week.

We were amazed by the view we had from this beautiful property. The road up to it is somewhat steep and winding but well worth the trip. We loved the outdoor common area and the swimming pool. Juan Carlos was an excellent host. Our son’s family arrived well after dark. Juan Carlos met them in town and guided them up to the house so that they wouldn’t have to find us in the dark. He was very good about answering our endless supply of questions. The house is close to the town of Coco, many restaurants, two beaches, and several grocery stores. We would definitely recommend this place for a Costa Rican vacation.

We had three families, 11 people, and the house gave us plenty of space. Everyone had a comfortable place to sleep and there were plenty of bathrooms for all. The views in person were beyond amazing, even better than the photos, and the in-door/out-door living space allowed us to enjoy them all day long. The pool was clean and the patio area provided many relaxing lounging areas with shade. We watched the sunsets each night before enjoying a wonderful meal prepared by Chef Marco. I would highly recommend taking advantage of the chef and bartender services. Everything we ate was delicious from the predinner snacks, to the drinks prepared by Manuel, to the beautifully presented dinners. There was enough food to enjoy the leftovers for lunch. Juan Carlos was very responsive and greeted us upon arrival. He helped us navigate anything we needed including excursions, trips to town, and massages with a masseuse that came to the house. We would definitely stay here again!

Our stay at the Villa was perfect. The pictures don’t do justice to the view. It’s even more beautiful in person. We were a group of 11 and had more than enough space. Kitchen needs a little update, however it’s still very good and totally worth the small compromise of having a this view and a reasonable price. Juan Carlos is a fabulous host. He was always responsive and available if we needed him. Henri, the pool cleaner was also very kind. We would definitely come back again.

The villa was really beautiful with a gorgeous view. It was very private and quiet. The 10 of us were very comfortable there. You do need a car, but it’s only a 15 minute drive to El Coco. It was relatively easy to get US cash out of the ATM’s in town. Juan Carlos was really a great help in setting up excursions around the area.

My group of ten said the house was even better than we expected. Juan Carlos was very helpful with everything.

Private location with amazing views. Juan Carlos was extremely responsive and supportive whenever we needed anything, and he helped us suggest and book a few of our daytrips. The kitchen is pretty basic and could use some upgrades (believed to be in progress), but it worked out for our group, as we ate out most nights.

Our group of 9 stayed at this stunning villa in Playa del Coco, and it was an unforgettable experience! The views are absolutely breathtaking, and the space was perfect for celebrating my mom’s birthday. We especially loved the private chef for dinner and the relaxing massages, which made the celebration extra special. The villa itself is beautiful, but there are some signs of wear and tear. During our stay, we encountered a few issues: some bathroom lights were out, requiring our friends to navigate in the dark at night, the ceiling fans occasionally cut out, making it uncomfortably warm, and we found some dirty dishes in the cabinets. There were also issues with flushing the toilets and a noticeable sewer smell. While our host was friendly and helpful, he was sometimes slow to respond, and unfortunately, the maintenance issues were not fixed during our stay. While the villa itself is beautiful, with more attention to detail and maintenance, this would be a wonderful property.

Our large family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this home. It has the best view of any place we have ever stayed. The chef and bartending services are a MUST. You will not be disappointed. Juan Carlos was excellent and very helpful. We have moved on to a different area with a new house and wish we could be back here. The view simply cannot be beat and the surroundings are amazing. The only thing listed but not available is an office space. We would love to come back. A+++++

This place was unbelievable. The views were absolutely amazing. It was a mansion villa at the top of the hill overlooking the ocean. It couldn’t have been anymore picturesque. The bedrooms and bathrooms were huge and clean. The layout/architecture was very unique. Juan Carlos the host was awesome. He’s friendly, responsive and helpful. I enjoyed everything about this place. It was one of the best places I’ve ever been to in my life. I would highly recommend Juan’s villa to anyone coming to Costa Rica.
