The best Airbnb. A breathtaking property both in terms of its location and everything it offers. Kerry is very friendly and responsive. This is a fantastic place, 1000% recommended.

Le meilleur Airbnb. Une propriété à couper le souffle autant par son emplacement que par tout ce qu’elle propose. Kerry est très amicale et réactive. C’est un endroit fantastique recommandé à 1000%

Thank you for the kind words! So happy your group enjoyed their stay... see you again I hope!

Excellent place. Kerry is super attentive, super clean and comfortable We will definitely be back🤩🤩

Excelente lugar. Kerry es super atenta, super limpio y cómodo Sin duda volveremos🤩🤩

A fantastic mountain home set in spectacular natural surroundings, with excellent birdwatching and ocean views over Costa Rica’s southern Pacific coast. If you are looking for a peaceful retreat with all the comforts of home, this is the place. The property is about a one-hour drive over rough terrain, but once you arrive, it is well worth the journey. Highly recommended.

Our family of six stayed at Finca Bella Vida over Christmas and we were immediately awe-struck by the beauty. This was the last of three places that we stayed in Costa Rica over two weeks and we literally saw more wildlife at Finca Bella Vida than we did in any of the other place, including national parks. Our family loves the beach, but there is so much to do and see at Finca Bella Vida that we could have stayed there all week. Kerry was very communicative and responsive when we had questions. Pablo and Lucresia do a great job in maintaining the property and amenities. They keep the birds fed so every day, we awoke to the sound of birds chirping. We are very appreciative to Kerry for sharing this slice of paradise with our family!

Hi Jordan, thank you so much for your kind words! I'm so happy you and your family loved staying at Finca Bella Vida and found it to be the perfect place to celebrate Christmas! You are welcome back anytime!

This place could not have been more spectacular. It was a paradise, nestled deep in the Diamante Verde valley and thrumming with humming birds. Despite being a sensational escape to a thick, pristine jungle brimming with exotic birds and mind-blowing views, it felt like home immediately. This, no doubt, was due to the incredible love and care that Kerry put into hosting us throughout our trip. She went so far above and beyond even the most unreasonable expectations of an AirBnB host that she felt more like an old friend we'd come to visit. We feel so blessed to have had this experience, we will treasure it forever, and we're already longing to go back. The house was warm and comfortable, the water was wonderfully filtered, the pool and the balcony are competing for the most magical places I've ever relaxed in my life, and there's a peaceful waterfall on the property. We've never seen the kids so happy. This place is perfect, stop reading reviews and book it right now.

We had a great time at this place. Everything was EXTREMELY clean and well maintained. They thought of the smallest detail which made our experience even more enjoyable. In addition, the house was quiet with spectacular views, perfect for resting even with a large family. There were 8 of us and we had space for everyone! + toucans and birdsong in the morning. + BBQ pool area + the garden which is very large and well maintained + the waterfall + the sunset + the kitchen is fully equipped + Lucresia the housekeeper + the calm + games and activities available + the fire pit (-) the road to the house is winding and very long (1 hour to Dominical) (-) Kerry specifies this when booking but you need to have a very good 4x4 especially when it rains. Thanks to Kerry who was more than responsive! I highly recommend this listing to all travelers!

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans ce logement. Tout était EXTRÊMEMENT propre et bien entretenu. Ils ont pensé au moindre petit détail ce qui a rendu notre expérience encore plus agréable . De plus la maison était calme avec une vue spectaculaire, parfait pour ce reposer meme avec une grande famille . Nous étions 8 et nous avions de l’espace pour tous ! + les toucans et les chants des oiseaux le matin . + le coin piscine BBQ + le jardin qui est très grand et bien entretenu + la cascade + le couché de soleil + la cuisine est totalement équipée + Lucresia la femme de ménage + le calme + les jeux et activités à disposition + le brasero (-) la route jusqu’à la maison est sinueuse et très longue ( 1 h jusqu’à dominical ) (-) Kerry le précise lors de la réservation mais il faut avoir un très bon 4x4 surtout quand il pleut . Merci à Kerry qui a été plus que réactive ! Je recommande vivement ce logement à tous les voyageurs !

Cléa, I'm so happy you enjoyed your rest and relaxation! I saw some photos and know that you got to see some spectacular sunsets! And waking up to the bird song never gets old 💜💜 I hope to see you and your family back here again one day 😊

"A Truly Magical Stay in Paradise!" Kerry's cabin was everything I hoped for and more! Nestled in the southern part of Costa Rica's stunning natural beauty, it felt like a dream come true. Waking up to the sounds of exotic birds and being surrounded by lush greenery was a magical experience. The cabin itself was exquisitely designed, beautifully maintained, and perfectly equipped for a relaxing stay. The birding opportunities were extraordinary—I spotted species I had only ever seen in books! Every moment, from sipping coffee on the deck to exploring the serene surroundings, was unforgettable. Kerry was a fantastic host, ensuring everything was perfect and sharing great local tips. If you're looking for peace, natural beauty, and a touch of wonder, this is the place to be. I can't wait to return!

Meena, I'm so delighted to hear you enjoyed your stay! And how exciting you got to see so many new Birds! The opportunity to see so many birds is one of the many things I love so much about the property! Looking forward to hosting you again in the future!

Beautiful place surrounded by nature, very close to the entrance of Nauyaca, 4x4 vehicle is required to be able to leave the place by the slopes quite steep and of loose stone. Kerry super friendly and attentive, he left us a delicious rooster peak!

Precioso lugar rodeado de naturaleza, muy cerca de la entrada de Nauyaca, se requiere vehículo 4x4 para poder salir del lugar por las cuestas bastante empinadas y de piedra suelta. Kerry súper amable y atenta, nos dejó un pico de gallo delicioso!

The place is amazing right in the middle of nature lots of birds toucans and inside the property you have a lot of things to do, I had a problem caused by myself and Kerry helped in the solution she even gave us a very nice chimichurri I would recommend the place 100%

Thank you for the kind words Carlos it was a pleasure having you here! and I'm happy you enjoyed the chimichurri!!

A heavenly place and a beautiful home! Serenity and relaxation guaranteed throughout the property. It is absolutely necessary to have a 4×4 to access it but once you arrive it is a magical place. Kerry has always responded to our requests with efficiency and kindness.

Un endroit paradisiaque et une maison magnifique ! Sérénité et détente garanties dans toute la propriété. Il faut absolument avoir un 4×4 pour y accéder mais une fois arrivé c'est un lieu magique. Kerry a toujours répondu à nos demandes avec efficacité et gentillesse.

Pascal, Thank you for the kind words and I'm so happy you enjoyed your time here and found it to be as relaxing and magical as I do. You and your family are welcome back anytime!

What a beautiful gem! Kerry is a fantastic host and the home is truly special. It is a little slice if paradise my family and i loved. We’ll be back💛

Marta, I'm so happy you and your family enjoyed your stay here! it was nice getting to know you all just a little bit... hope to see you again in the future 😊

Finca Bella Vida is a wonderful place! The house is very cozy. The kitchen is so spacious and nice that it invites you to prepare meals at home. The rooms are very comfortable, it is very relaxing to sit on the balconies of each room to see the trees, the birds and the sea. The estate's trails offer a great hike in the middle of the trees, waterfalls, and pools. The pool is perfect for cooling off after a hot day. In short, Finca Bella Vida is a place where one would want to stay much longer than I had originally planned. In addition, the kindness and attention of Kerry and his partners Lucrecia and Pablo make one feel very welcome. Thank you so much Kerry for sharing your home with me and my family with my family, we had a great time with me!

¡Finca Bella Vida es un lugar maravilloso! La casa es muy acogedora. La cocina es tan espaciosa y agradable que invita a preparar comidas en casa. Los cuartos son muy confortables, es muy relajante sentarse en los balcones de cada cuarto a ver los árboles, los pájaros y el mar. Los senderos de la finca ofrecen una caminata genial en medio de los árboles, las cataratas y las pozas. La piscina es perfecta para refrescarse luego de un día caluroso. En fin, Finca Bella Vida es un lugar en el que uno quisiera quedarse mucho más tiempo del que había planeado inicialmente. Además, la gentileza y atención de Kerry y sus colaboradores Lucrecia y Pablo hacen que uno se sienta muy bienvenido. ¡Muchas gracias Kerry por compartir tu casa conmigo y con mi familia, la pasamos genial!

Thank you for your kind words Alejandro! And I appreciate your feedback. hope to see you again in the future

The place is absolutely beautiful, has lush surroundings, breathtaking views and you can see a lot of animal and plant species, especially birds, and it is quite private and has many amenities that make you feel at home, perfect for families with all kinds of hobbies. Both the host and the person who welcomed us were very nice and proactively gave us help when we needed them, they also guided us and provided great recommendations for exploring the surrounding area and enjoying the experience to the fullest. It should be noted that, although retired, the place is quite close to the beaches and the city for those who appreciate this duality, and access is simple if GPS is used. I would definitely return to this place, it is ideal for spreading out and relaxing completely, spending time with the family, and appreciating nature.

El lugar es absolutamente hermoso, tiene exuberantes alrededores, vistas impresionantes y se pueden observar gran cantidad de especies animales y vegetales, especialmente aves, además es bastante privado y cuenta con muchas comodidades que te hacen sentir como en casa, perfecto para familias con todo tipo de pasatiempos. Tanto la anfitriona como la persona que nos recibió fueron muy amables y nos brindaron ayuda de manera proactiva cuando lo necesitamos, también nos guiaron y brindaron excelentes recomendaciones para explorar los alrededores y disfrutar la experiencia al máximo. Cabe destacar que, aunque retirado, el lugar se encuentra bastante cerca de las playas y de la ciudad para quienes aprecian esta dualidad, y el acceso es sencillo si se utiliza GPS. Definitivamente volvería a este lugar, es ideal para dispersarse y relajarse completamente, pasar un tiempo en familia y apreciar la naturaleza.

Thank you very much Anthonny for your kind words and your feedback. I'm happy you and your group enjoyed your stay and we are happy to have you  return anytime as a very welcome guest!

I cannot explain how beautiful this place was, pictures don’t do the justice. I wish we had more time. An immaculate place with lots of stuff to Do at the property, we can’t wait to go back 💕 Thank you Kerry for a wonderful experience.

Almas, I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay! you will definitely have to stay longer next time. 😊

Super costarican mountain Villa for a lovely peaceful retreat! Kerry was a friendly and amazing host, with great attention to details. A beautiful peaceful Oasis located up the in mountains. The place is a little remote but well worth it! (figure a good 1 hour from the coast including 30 minutes of tortuous dirt mountain roads before getting there. Still a Really Wonderful & super well equipped Villa with amazing view, a beautiful property with private waterfalls, lots of fruits trees, flowers and hummingbirds. Everyone of us Loved our stay there. We highly recommend !

Thank you so much for the kind words Frederick! I'm so happy you and your family enjoyed your stay here in this little slice of paradise. Pura Vida

This house and retreat Center is amazing. Great Views, very clean, very safe, so many beautiful birds and flowers to see. The host was amazing and the staff was so sweet. They picked all these amazing fruits and flowers right from the farm. We had the best food and best time for our family trip. We highly recommend coming to this very special and secret community. Full of waterfalls and views of the ocean for days. The beds are new and comfortable, the linens very high quality and enjoyable. Can't ask for more! Thank you, Kerry, for creating and preserving such an incredible slice of paradise. WE WILL BE BACK!!

I'm so happy to hear you enjoyed your stay.  Can't wait to have you back!

Kerry was amazing. She stayed up until 10pm when we missed our ferry and made sure we arrived very safely. Her team was magical and connected us with locals for local farm experiences. They even brought us gasoline when our car ran out of gas up the mountain and Kerry covered our costs to pay for dinner when we didn’t have cash. The place was incredible and a great value for money. Loved staying here and will absolutely be back!

Nick, it was a pleasure hosting you... can't wait to have you back! Pura Vida

It was too good to be true. Everything was as we planned and better. Looking forward to come back. AWD car make the trip smoother

Thank you so much Emilio, it was a pleasure to have you and your friends on my farm and I'm so glad you enjoyed your holiday!! 🙏✨️

We spent 4 nights at Finca Bella Vida. Kerry is an extraordinary host and a wonderful person. Her house is squeaky clean and very comfy. She is developing her property for avid birdwatchers like we are. We have no doubt it will become a hotspot. It should not be missed. Clearly one of our best stays.

Denis it delights me to know you and Natalie enjoyed your stay here as much as I enjoyed hosting you! I look forward to seeing you back here again one day 😊

We used the place to meet up with friends who are traveling like us to Costa Rica this February. It's perfect place to unwind by the pool overlooking the jungle and the Pacific. The kids had a good time, the house was great, sparkling clean, spacious and equipped with everything you need. Host Kerry was wonderful and provided us with great tips on the area and fresh fruit from the ranch. If we ever come back to Costa Rica again, we will stop here again.

Wir haben die Unterkunft genutzt um uns mit Freunden zu treffen, die wie wir diesen Februar Costa Rica bereisen. Es ist der perfekte Ort um am Pool mit Blick auf den Dschungel und den Pazifik zu entspannen. Die Kinder haben sich gut amüsiert, das Haus war großartig, blitzsauber, geräumig und mit allem was man braucht ausgestattet. Gastgeberin Kerry war wunderbar und hat uns mit tollen Tips zur Umgebung und frischem Obst von der Ranch versorgt. Sollten wir jemals wieder nach Costa Rica kommen, werden wir wieder hier Station machen.

Hans, thank you so much for the kind words.  It means so much to me that you all enjoyed yourselves 😊

Just do yourself a favor and book Kerry's place! This magical place and Kerry's superb hosting skills are what make Airbnb, Airbnb. This house and property are stunning! The house is immaculately clean, big, and comfortable - it has anything you need for your stay. The beds are super comfortable and she uses high-quality cotton sheets. The views are unreal, watching the sunset from the pool or house balcony is pure magic, and the sky at night is otherwordly. The property, gardens, yoga decks, nature, trails - everything is perfect! It's like staying in your private retreat center. Pure magic and serenity. Kerry's love of this place and of hosting is undeniable. She's the most gracious, kind, and friendly host I've met on this platform! Kerry is not only responsive, but she's also proactive which is so rare to find these days on Airbnb. I can't say enough good things about her or our experience here! We are definitely coming back - this place is truly a gem <3

Dali, Thank you so much for the kind words! It was lovely having you and your friends here... I can't wait to have you all back again!

We honestly could not give Kerry’s place a higher recommendation. From the moment we entered the property we were in awe. She has a truly magical property with everything you would ever want for a peaceful retreat, encountering nature, and the beauty of Costa Rica. We spent hours watching the toucans and birds right outside our window, hiking the property, resting in hammocks, and enjoying the pool. The house is AMAZING, beds comfortable, beautiful and thoughtful design, perfect kitchen setup, and wonderful outdoor spaces to relax. It was the perfect stay in a truly special setting. You will not regret booking. Kerry was so kind and helpful with anything we needed or had questions about, including recommendations. We have stayed many places over 7 years of visiting Costa Rica and our stay here is at the top… Kerry and her on-site staff made it even more special. The Diamante Valley is a magical place and there’s no better place to experience it.

Catherine and Ryan,  I'm so glad you felt the same special connection as I do to the land in that beautiful piece of the Diamante Valley...I look forward to welcoming you back in the future!!
