Villa Kañik - Condé Nast Traveller Luxury Retreat - Villas for Rent in Dominical, Puntarenas Province, Costa Rica

Villa Kanik was heaven on Earth! The house and surroundings could not have been more beautiful. There were lots of great restaurants and a grocery store (with everything we needed) a surprisingly short drive from the villa. The host was proactive with communication and super-responsive. The house was stocked with everything we could have needed and the cleaning service was fantastic. We could not have asked for more...we only wish we had stayed longer and we hope to return again, and again!

The stay at Villa Kanik was beyond exceptional!  The hosts were so great and made our stay perfect.  Great activities including ATV tours in the jungle, white water rafting, surfing, zip lining and off-shore fishing all nearby.  We can’t wait to go back and would give it 10 stars if we could!  The housekeeper, Jussy, was so kind and did a wonderful job and also cooked wonderful breakfast for us each day!

Thank you Matt for this wonderful review! It was truly a pleasure hosting you and your family at Villa Kañik. We’re so happy to hear that you enjoyed the villa, all the adventures in the area, and especially Jussy’s delicious breakfasts and warm hospitality. You certainly made the most of your time in Costa Rica! We would love to welcome you back for another stay, as there are still plenty of adventures and relaxing moments waiting for you. Thank you again for choosing Villa Kañik and for taking the time to share your experience with future guests. Pura vida!

This place is incredible- it feels like something out of a movie. Absolutely beautiful surroundings. We saw monkeys and toucans from the yard. And Adriana had the best recommendations for activities and tour operators. Absolutely fantastic - can’t wait to come back!

We are so grateful you chose to stay with us, Ashley. It was truly a pleasure hosting you and your family. We would be happy to welcome you back anytime in the future!

We had an incredible stay at Patrick and Adriana's home. The house design, location, furnishings, view, and privacy were exactly what we had hoped for and more. Owners were readily available to assist with any issues at the home (grill issue which was resolved almost immediately) and provided connections for surf lessons, deep sea fishing, and transportation. Our family of 5 had a blast in Dominical, and this home was a wonderful place to wind down after adventuring each day. Daily housekeeping was a huge bonus as well!

This place is magical. Modern home surrounded by 360 degrees of jungle. Absolutely stunning. We loved lounging by the pool and took advantage of a couple private chef meals. We saw monkeys, toucans and other wildlife. The drive up the mountain is steep and is totally doable/worth it! - we had 4x4 and had no issues! It’s about a 5 min drive up from the base. Inside the beds and couches are so comfortable with great quality linens. We had plenty of space for our group of 7. Jussy the housekeeper is a hero - cleaning and doing laundry daily was such a treat. We felt secure and safe in the area and in the home. There is a gate to enter, locks and cameras - we felt very safe :)

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It was a true pleasure hosting your family Lindsey. We're delighted you enjoyed your stay and that our team helped make your time at the villa so special. We would love to welcome you back for another unforgettable stay in Costa Rica! Pura Vida!

The place was picture perfect and the location was great! The only negative thing we could say was the ice machine couldn’t keep up with the amount of guests. Which we were able to buy ice daily at the grocery store.

My friends and I had an incredible stay at Villa Kanik. Our host was consistently responsive and helpful from start to finish. The home itself is stunning, and the backdrop of Costa Rica is simply unbeatable. The highlight of our trip was the delicious meals prepared by the house cook and cleaner, Jussy. Her food and service were a genuine standout, and my friends and I thoroughly enjoyed every bite. We are already looking forward to our next trip to Costa Rica.

Best Birthday Trip Ever! I celebrated my birthday at this amazing villa and I can honestly say it was the best trip ever. From start to finish, everything was flawlessly arranged. Adriana was extremely responsive, addressing every request with care and understanding, providing the best recommnedations. Villa Kanik was so unique, absolutely modern and beautiful with breathtaking views and the peaceful sounds of Costa Rica. One of the highlights was the house cook, who made the most amazing Costa Rican breakfasts. Furthermore, she also provided complimentary cleaning so the house was always a breath of fresh air. Another highlight was the Chef's Dinner, that prepared an amazing dinner experience. Adriana and her team are fantastic, everything was so well arranged and punctual, and the home was so comfortable. My birthday trip was even more than I could have hoped for—relaxing, adventurous, and truly unforgettable, thanks to Villa Kanik and I cannot wait to return!

This review means so much to us! Thank you Subira for sharing your experience at Villa Kañik. Everything we do, we do it with love and care aiming to provide unforgettable stays to our guests. Having achieved that motivates us to continue working with excellence. Happy bday and we wish to welcome you back in the near future ✨✨✨

Lovely house with a stunning view over Dominicalito Beach. The house is modern, recently built, and fully equipped with everything you need to make the most of your stay. Whether you want to relax, enjoy the peaceful surroundings, or explore the area, this home offers the perfect balance of comfort and privacy for family holidays.

Beautiful home and setting. The pictures don’t do it justice. The daily housekeeping and in-home spa services were a great touch.

This was our first time in Costa Rica and I’m so happy we chose to spend it at Villa Kanik!! The villa is absolutely breathtaking - from the beautifully decorated interior to the picturesque views from the pool and outdoor oasis. Waking up every morning to the local monkeys, toucans and other wildlife was one of the highlights of our trip! The villa had everything we needed and ample space for our family and friends. It was the perfect place to come home to after or many fun adventures! Adriana is an amazing host and provided us with a number of recommendations both leading up to and during our trip to help us plan many excursions, dining recommendations and other helpful hints to make our trip stress free. I can’t say enough great things about this amazing home - I hope we can someday come back!! Thank you Adriana for sharing your beautiful home with us, it was a vacation we will never forget ❤️

Carrie, thank you so much for your kind message. We’re so happy that your first experience in Costa Rica was such a special one and that Villa Kañik could be part of it. Knowing that you enjoyed the setting, the wildlife, and the time shared with your loved ones is incredibly rewarding for us. It was a pleasure assisting you throughout your stay, and we’re so glad the recommendations helped make everything smooth and enjoyable. You were a wonderful guest, and we would absolutely love to welcome you back anytime for another unforgettable escape 🌿

This incredible Costa Rica ocean-view villa was absolute paradise! The infinity pool looking over the Pacific was breathtaking, and the amenities—from a private chef serving local cuisine to relaxing in-villa massages and tailored yoga sessions—made it an unforgettable luxury experience. The staff was top-notch and attentive, creating the perfect, relaxing getaway. I will definitely go back.

We’re truly grateful for your visit, Anna. It brings us great joy to know you experienced the villa to its fullest and had such a memorable stay. Thank you for your wonderful review!! We look forward to welcoming you back ✨✨✨ pura vida! 🇨🇷

This villa is absolutely beautiful and the hosts pay attention to every detail. They were very attentive to our interests and needs and checked in with us frequently to see if we needed anything. The house keeper came each day and cleaned and did laundry if needed. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen fully stocked with anything needed to cook. I highly recommend staying here as it was not just a typical rental but an experience of a lifetime for our family.

We had an amazing week at Villa Kanik. The house itself was beautiful—spotlessly clean, comfortable, and with a view that was truly something special. Waking up to monkeys one morning was a fun bonus! Adriana and Katherine were incredible. They went above and beyond to help us plan our trip, from helping to book activities to recommending great places to eat and explore in the area. They also arranged our transportation to and from the airport, which made everything so easy and stress‑free. Overall, our stay couldn’t have been better. We’d happily return and highly recommend Villa Kanik to anyone looking for a wonderful Costa Rica getaway.

We can't say enough amazing things about our stay. This villa exceeded all expectations. It is such a beautiful and tranquil space. Every part of the house is so well-planned and thought out. We only had our immediate family, but there is definitely space for two families. Dominicolito is an amazing and quiet beach area. The beach is just down the road and parking is easy peasy. Adrianna got us in touch with Jordie, the most patient and knowledgeable surf instructor. My kids were surfing stars by end of week. The views from the infinity pool can relax even the most stressed out person. The pizza oven was such an added bonus. We can't wait to visit again!

Thank you so much, Heidi, for your wonderful review. It truly makes us happy to know that our guests get to experience the beauty and tranquility of the surroundings while enjoying the villa. We are especially grateful that you appreciated the details and care we have put into every corner of the house. You are always welcome back, hopefully very soon. We would love to see your kids catching more waves! 🏄🏄🏄🌊✨✨✨

Villa Kañik is easily one of our more favorite Airbnb stays. The house itself is well built and beautifully designed with thoughtful touches. It is even more beautiful and spacious in person. Even with the beautiful wide open ocean view, the property is nestled in nicely in the jungle and feels very private. The location is also great being convenient to both Uvita and Dominical.  The hosts are helpful and communicative. 11 out of 10 recommend!

This home is absolutely gorgeous!! We had more than enough space to spend time together but still have our reset time. The views are amazing! I would suggest renting a car with Katherine the property manager before arriving, the process is easy and you will need a vehicle. I would definitely stay here again.

Thank you so much for your lovely review! We’re delighted to know the villa suited your group so well and that you enjoyed the setting and overall experience. It was a true pleasure hosting you, and we’d be happy to welcome you back anytime.

Our group had such an incredible time here. The house is beautiful. The host were very responsive and helpful with coordinating our arrival as well as offering activity and spa options for the area. If I make it back to Costa Rica again we will absolutely be staying here and for much longer.

The view is spectacular. Photos don’t do it justice. The home is comfortable, clean, and perfectly appointed to host large groups. The hosts are responsive, friendly, and proactive. They have thought of everything you need to have a relaxing, enjoyable, and luxurious stay. This is easily in top-3 best Airbnb we’ve ever stayed. This house requires a stay and merits a return. We hope to enjoy it again in the future!

The Villa Kanik is absolutely beautiful, spacious and a well designed home for movement of a large group with multiple gathering spaces. The Villa provided a safe, quiet place for our family to gather while enjoying time together. The pool was an absolute hit with the grandchildren and a refreshing activity at any time of the day. Some enjoyed yoga out by the pool with the mats provided. The property is beautifully landscaped adding to the already lush natural surrounding jungle. We enjoyed breakfast each morning, prepared by our local cook Jussy, out on the patio. Patrick was always quick to answer any questions we had. The children were able to see monkeys, lizards, geckos, tucans, parrots and other wild life. Everything was reasonably in close proximity of the Villa.

We’re delighted to hear that Villa Kañik was a comfortable, peaceful space for your family to gather and enjoy time together. Jussy will be very happy to hear how much you enjoyed her breakfasts, and we’re glad our team was able to assist you whenever needed. Seeing wildlife around the villa is always a magical experience, and we’re so happy your family had the chance to enjoy those special moments together in nature. It was a real pleasure hosting you, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you and your family back to Villa Kañik in the future.

incredible place to stay! we loved the pool and watching the sunsets every night! very spacious and Jussy was amazing! easy travel to dominical, uvita/bahia, and manuel antonio! came to visit a family member who lives in Costa Rica and hoping to come back to stay here in the future!

Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re truly happy to hear that you loved Villa Kañik and enjoyed the pool and those unforgettable sunsets. They really are something special 🌅 We’re also delighted to know that Jussy helped make your stay even more enjoyable; we’ll be sure to pass along your compliments to her. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we would absolutely love to welcome you back to Villa Kañik on your next visit to Costa Rica.

Villa Kanik was phenomenal! Both the home and the host were spectacular!! From the minute you open that front door and see the AMAZING view you know you will be in for the vacation of a lifetime! Not only is the house itself one of a kind, but Adriana was the most accommodating and friendly host. She and Katherine were so helpful in planning our excursions and dinners; always very responsive and informative. They helped find tours, chefs, restaurants, and transportation and everything was perfect! They even went above and beyond helping us at the VERY last minute when we had flight delays getting into San Jose and they found transportation so we wouldn’t be stranded on the day of our arrival. They also scrambled and found 5 masseuses when we asked quite late in the day. Any questions we had they could answer. The villa was perfect for our family of 6! Kanik is a spacious home with incredible views and wonderful indoor and and outdoor living areas. You cannot do any better!

Thank you so much for your wonderful review. We are truly grateful for your kind words and are delighted to know that you and your family had such a memorable stay at Villa Kañik. It makes us so happy when families get to experience all the wildlife our area has to offer and then decompress with the services we provide at the Villa. Your family was a pleasure to host. We look forward to hosting you again soon. Pura vida 🇨🇷

Our stay was absolutely unforgettable! The property offers the perfect blend of ocean and jungle views. We saw Toucans and monkeys. The home itself was spotless, beautifully designed and well equipped with everything we needed. We especially loved relaxing on the balcony enjoying the breathtaking views. Our host was responsive and full of local recommendations that made our trip even better. The location was ideal close to beaches, restaurants, and outdoor activities, yet still secluded enough to feel private. If you’re looking for a place that combines comfort, nature, and stunning scenery, this is a spot. We would return in a heartbeat!!!!!! Jussy the housekeeper is the best!

Thank you so much for your wonderful review Bianca! We’re delighted to hear that the views, wildlife, and comfort of the home made your stay unforgettable. It truly brings us joy when our guests get to experience the beauty of the area, and feedback like yours motivates us to keep delivering exceptional service. We’re also happy to know that Jussy’s care and our recommendations added to your trip. Hosting you was a pleasure, and we’d be thrilled to welcome you back anytime!

Wonderful stay for our group. Perfect space and amazing view. Jussy’s daily cleaning and laundry, as well as daily breakfast added to our stay was an awesome option. Hosts were super responsive and helpful with recommendations and bookings. Road definitely requires 4x4 access and can be muddy with any rain, but with the right vehicle, no issues. Fantastic place and would definitely stay again.

Thank you so much for your lovely review! We’re pleased to hear that your group enjoyed the villa, the views, and the comfort of having the daily breakfast service. It means a lot to us. A 4x4 is always recommended for our area, but access does improve significantly in the dry season when the road is maintained. With the right vehicle, the drive is part of the adventure and leads to the beautiful views you experienced. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’d be delighted to welcome you back anytime! ✨

We felt right at home at villa kanik. Everything was pristine and I highly recommend! The provided services and attentiveness is out of this world.

Thank you Rodney for your words of appreciation. We loved hosting you! You are welcome to come back anytime. 🇨🇷

Villa Kanik exceeded our expectations from the moment we booked to the moment we checked out. I honestly don’t know where to begin. The house was amazing, with breathtaking views and 5 star accommodations. The services offered are top tier and I would highly recommend every option provided. We opted for daily breakfast from the local chef and awoke each morning to fresh coffee, juice and a delicious meal. The spa service at the house with the back drop of rain pattering on the roof, couldn’t have been more perfect. Then the private chef’s themed bbq dinner…the level of professionalism and perfectly prepared menu…my guests are still raving about how good everything tasted. The shuttle service to and from the property, white glove service! The option to have your rental cars delivered to the property was convenient and easy. We zip lined & rode atvs, all arranged through the host. The entire experience was luxurious and I would highly recommend that you book this property now!

I had a wonderful stay! The space was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described in the listing. The host was friendly, responsive, and made sure everything went smoothly during my visit. The location was also very convenient, making it easy to get around and enjoy the area. I would definitely recommend this Airbnb to anyone looking for a great place to stay and would happily book again in the future.

Adriana and Patricks house was absolutely amazing! We stayed for four nights and they made everything feel right at home. The concierge service they provided was incredible and made everything so easy for us. I would recommend this place 10000% and then some!!! Incredible house, incredible host, and an incredible country!!!

Thank you Jessica!! It was a true pleasure hosting you and we’re delighted to hear you felt at home during your stay. You are always welcome back anytime; we’d be happy to host you again whenever Costa Rica calls you back. Pura vida!

We were 9 people and had 2 nights before with Patrick and Adriana. The space is a dream. We all had our mouths open when we entered. An incredibly beautiful house, with a magnificent view. We lacked nothing. Communication was perfect. We were answered promptly and at all times. If we had any questions, we could always get help. We received great tips for our stay. It was an unforgettable short vacation for all of us. Thanks very much and see you hopefully soon

Wir waren 9 Leute und hatten 2 Nächte vor bei Patrick und Adriana. Die Unterkunft ist ein Traum. Uns allen stand beim Betreten der Mund offen. Ein unglaublich schönes Haus, mit einem grandiosen Blick. Uns hat es an nichts gefehlt. Die Kommunikation war perfekt. Uns wurde umgehend und zu jederzeit geantwortet. Bei Fragen konnte uns immer wieder geholfen werden. Wir haben tolle Tipps für unseren Aufenthalt erhalten. Es war für uns alle ein unvergesslicher Kurzurlaub. Vielen lieben Dank und bis hoffentlich bald

Fantastic accommodation in Kañik house. It's spectacular. Breathtaking views and toucans very close to the house. Very comfortable house. We were 10 people. The air conditioning works perfectly. There was no problem with the electricity, since we have a generator. The cooks and cleaning girls are very good. They make the stay a 10 and very comfortable. The recommended excursions are very good. To access the house you need a car ready or in our case we used the house's taxi service (very good service) The area is very quiet and safe. The beach is very nice and nothing to envy from the biggest ones. Thank you Adriana and Katherine for being attentive to our stay.

Fantástico el alojamiento en casa Kañik. Es espectacular. Vistas impresionantes y tucanes muy cerca de la casa. Casa muy cómoda. Hemos estado 10 personas. El aire acondicionado funciona perfectamente. No ha habido ningún problema con la luz al contar con el generador. Las cocineras y las chicas de la limpieza muy bien. Hacen que la estancia sea de 10 y muy cómodo. Las excursiones recomendadas muy bien. Para acceder a la vivienda hace falta coche preparado o en nuestro caso hemos utilizado el servicio de taxis de la casa (muy buen servicio) La zona es muy tranquila y segura. La playa muy bonita y nada que envidiar a las más grandes. Gracias Adriana y Katherine por estar pendientes de nuestra estancia.

Muchas gracias Eugenia por el review tan completo y detallado✨ Saber que nuestros huéspedes se sienten a gusto y bien atendidos es lo que nos motiva a seguir trabajando buscando siempre la excelencia. Gracias por confiar en nuestro equipo y por escoger quedarse con nosotros! Esperamos recibirlos nuevamente cuando gusten volver por la zona sur de Costa Rica 🇨🇷

Our stay at Villa Kanik was nothing short of amazing! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the stunning ocean views, luxurious design, and thoughtful details throughout the property. The villa was spotless, beautifully furnished, and had everything we could possibly need for a relaxing and memorable family vacation. The infinity pool overlooking the Pacific quickly became our favorite spot—perfect for sunrise coffee, afternoon swims, and sunset cocktails. The bedrooms were spacious and comfortable, each with its own breathtaking view, and the air conditioning made it easy to unwind after warm days exploring. The location was ideal—close to Dominical and Uvita for restaurants, beaches, and adventures, but tucked away enough to feel private and peaceful. We loved how easy it was to get to surfing, waterfalls, and even whale watching, while still having the villa as our luxurious retreat. We cannot recommend Villa Kanik highly enough, This was a trip we will treasure forever.

Thank you Leigh Ann for such a great and complete review! We love that you experienced the adventures that our area offers and also the unwinding experiences at the villa. Thanks for your trust in us for your family vacations ✨

We had an awesome stay at Villa Kanik. The house is even better than in the pictures and is really where jungle meets the sea! The house is perched in the mountain just above dominicalito beach and you really feel immersed in nature. Extremely private. We used the private chef for our evenings dinners and each meal was a delight. You really cannot go wrong with this house. Book with confidence and simply enjoy! Highly recommend.

We are so grateful for your stay Philip and for your kinds words of appreciation. It is our joy when our guests get to experience the beauty of our surroundings and at the same time enjoy the services and comfort of the villa. Thanks again for staying with us.

Thank you Morris for staying with us. We are glad you were able to enjoy the in-house services and relax in our villa. We hope to welcome you back anytime.

The host was amazing, the place was clean. The insects are a little weary but if you utilize the porch coverings before turning on the light at night you should be fine. It’s hard for Ubers to get to the airbnb, so you’re kind of stuck utilizing their taxi unless you get a rental. Taxi man is friendly and nice but you can’t really be spontaneous with plans because you have to schedule a taxi ride. And there’s only one tv in the house, which is in the living room. Overall great place to stay.

Thank you for your feedback Lawyana. For clarity, the villa is located in the rainforest, so seeing insects outdoors is part of the natural environment. Inside, however, there should be no bugs if guests follow our check-in guidance to close the large sliding window-doors before turning on lights at night. This information is provided in our guestbook and reinforced upon arrival. The villa is also regularly fumigated to ensure guests enjoy the comfort of a luxury home while surrounded by nature. Regarding transportation, there are no Ubers in the entire Southern Pacific region of Costa Rica due to its rural setting. For this reason, we always recommend renting a car or booking transportation in advance. Our concierge team is available to coordinate taxis in an organized way so guests can plan their days smoothly. Our secluded setting offers privacy and nature, yet we are only 7 minutes from Dominical town, where you will find all the amenities you need. We encourage guests to plan ahead to make the most of both the tranquility of the villa and the attractions nearby.

My words will not do this place justice!!! It was everything and more. You will need an all wheel drive or 4x4 to get up the to the house. It is totally worth it. I would recommend getting the breakfast prepared for you. It was amazing! Fresh fruit and juices and Jussy took very good care of my group. The view from four of the 5 bedrooms is of the ocean.

Adriana & Patrick were great hosts of the beautiful property Villa Kañik! The house is perfectly situated on a mountainside with breathtaking views of Dominicalito Beach. A perfectly private setting, the home boasts modern tropical design & architecture with top amenities. For a family of six adults & two small children, Villa Kanik was very comfortable & spacious for everyone. The infinity pool & eat-in kitchen was a hit for everyone. We were lucky to see a few wild toucan with our coffee and hear the monkeys play. Great location with Domincalito Beach a 6 min drive down hill to catch some small waves & enjoy a coco. Cute shops, restaurants & organic groceries just 10 min to Dominical or a short 15 min drive north to Uvita for Whale’s Tail. We traveled in 4x4 truck & 10 passenger van. Definitely need 4x4 for road to property as advised, especially once it’s rained. The hosts were very friendly & helpful, ensuring cleaning service was provided for our large family. Highly recommend!!

Thank you so much Kristin for your wonderful words! It was truly a pleasure to host you and your lovely family at Villa Kañik. It means a lot to us that you felt well taken care of, and we would be thrilled to welcome you back anytime. Wishing you many more beautiful adventures as a family! Warm regards, Adriana & Patrick

We really enjoyed the property. I appreciate that the experience was consistent with the overview.  Adriana, the host, was fantastic!  I enjoyed the ability to leverage her expertise to arrange excursions and experiences at the house (e.g. meals, spa, groceries). We would love  to come back, and I thank you for a memorable experience for my family!

Thank you for your kind words! It was truly a pleasure hosting you and your family. We are delighted to hear that the experience lived up to your expectations and that you enjoyed the services and activities we helped arrange. Creating memorable stays is always our goal, and we are so glad we could be a part of yours. You are welcome to come back anytime!

Our stay was magical. The house absolutely exceeded expectations from the minute we arrived. The view was spectacular, the pool was beautiful, the beds were comfortable and the decor was comfortable and inviting. A 10 out of 10!

Thank you Alison! We will love to host you again on your next visit to Costa Rica so you can experience the pending adventures and activities in our area :)

We loved hosting you Taylor! We are glad you got to enjoy all the in house services and experience the adventures of our surroundings.

Adriana was extremely helpful! From assisting with reservations to putting us in touch with local vendors - everything was perfect! The home is absolutely beautiful and very well kept. It was exactly as described. Adriana and her team was very proactive and responsive, regardless of the time. Would absolutely recommend staying in this home - already can’t wait to come back. For those not familiar with Costa Rica during the raining months, it is not unusual for the power to go out. This happened during our stay but Adriana and team were very attentive and despite being out of their control, made us as comfortable as possible.

Thank you Elodie for staying with us and for being great guests! It makes us very happy that you were able to enjoy the villa and the adventures of our surroundings. We hope you come back soon to experience the snorkeling tour to the Caño Island. Pura vida!

Amazing villa. Great hosts that were very accommodating. Concierge service made life easy for us. 10/10. If ever in Uvita/Dominical this is for sure the place to stay. They helped set up the house for my 30th birthday as well. Amazing people

Beautiful stay with my family at Villa Kañik. Beautiful views, beautiful energy and felt like home away from home. The trundle beds for the kids were such a plus. Very response hosts. Would definitely recommend experiencing it for yourself.

Thank you Kylie for your review. We are grateful for your visit and we are so happy you experienced the beauty of our surroundings. Thanks once again for staying with us! Pura vida 🇨🇷

Thank you for a really wonderful stay. We loved everything about the house - especially the view - and all the accommodations you helped us with! The private chef, yoga, and massages were amazing. Was the best getaway for a girls trip. Thank you!

You are welcome Michelle! We are so grateful for your visit and it makes us happy that you were able to experience the full in-house services that the villa offers. We will let our staff know that you enjoyed every experience. We hope you come back some other time! 🇨🇷

Wonderful house on top of the hill with a beautiful view! Adriana was really helpful, she even booked a restaurant for us with an amazing view on the ocean. Rooms were really great, our kids enjoyed the pool, we were sad to leave this place! Thanks a lot Adriana!

So grateful for your visit and your kind words of appreciation Mikael! We hope to welcome you back anytime. Pura vida 🇨🇷

This is one of the nicest Airbnb that we have had the opportunity to visit. Adriana was great. The house was amazing, it had everything that we needed. They help arrange our private chef and server, which was delicious. The pool and the view were breathtaking. We wish we would have planned a longer stay and we will definitely be back!

Thank you Michael! You are welcome to come back anytime! 🇨🇷

I can’t say enough nice things about our Airbnb experience. My three friends and I stayed here for four days and nights. Adriana and the entire staff were extremely professional, informative, and proactive. We had a couple hiccups with our travels, including a broken down plane for our domestic flight and they didn’t miss a step, helping us find alternative transportation to the villa since the rental car agency had closed by the time we made it to. Quepos. It was so convenient being able to order food ahead of time to stock the villa before our arrival. They helped us coordinate all of our activities, including an ATV tour, private chef and massages by the pool. They checked up on us after every event to make sure everything went smoothly. The power did go out for only an hour or so one evening, but we were advised ahead of time this might happen and they have candles and flashlights so no big deal at all. The house is BEAUTIFUL !!! Pics are accurate. We will return!

Thank you Brian for staying with us and for taking such good care of our villa! We are happy you enjoyed your stay! You are welcome to come back anytime. Pura vida 🇨🇷

Everything was great, well organized and responsive when needed.  Power went out the last night, but we knew there was a chance of that.  Great place and we had a great time!

Thank you Matt for staying with us! We are glad you enjoyed the villa and that you got to experience the in-house services we provide. It was a pleasure to host you and we hope to welcome you back sometime soon!

This was paradise for us. A surfing family of 5 with Domicalito beach down at the end of mtn. Spectacular views of the beach from every room perched in a peaceful mountain setting. The host and concierge service took care of all requests immediately -they were amazing!We had a private chef for breakfast one day and had the chef prepare a dinner another night -a must do! There is a welcome book that clearly highlights all the restaurants and activities in the area which was super helpful and spot on. In between our morning and afternoon surf sessions we did an ATV tour one day and another day took a trip up to the waterfalls. Both amazing. The concierge service set up our private transport to and from the airport and a rental pickup truck was waiting for us in the driveway when we arrived. One morning we had massages set up at the house when we arrived back from an early morning surf. Heaven on earth… Michael

We are so grateful for your visit Michael! Thanks for taking such good care of our villa. It makes us truly happy when our guests get to experience the beauty and adventures that surround us. We hope to welcome you back anytime. Pura vida! 🇨🇷

Very great place to stay, would go back again!!!

Villa Kanik and the hosts exceeded our expectations.  We stayed at the property for 10 days and had the best vacation!  The villa is magical, the activities were all hand picked to be of the highest quality and our family felt safe and taken care of the entire time!  The housekeeping was such an amazing bonus and the communication with the hosts and their entire team was flawless.  We couldnt have been happier and would recommend this vacation without any reservation whatsoever!

Gratefull for the opportunity of hosting your family Amy. We put our hearts into creating an exceptional experience for our guests, and hearing that you enjoyed the villa and its surroundings is the greatest reward. Thank you for choosing to stay with us—we’d love to have you back anytime!

Our stay was incredible! Best airbnb we stayed in yet. House was so lovely and comfortable. We loved the view. Everything was perfectly appointed! We would 100 percent stay again.

Thank you Alexandra for staying with us and for your appreciative words! We are grateful that you enjoyed your stay in our villa and would love to welcome you back anytime.

Located in Dominical, Costa Rica - Villa Kanik was the perfect home for my bachelorette getaway. The Villa was absolutely beautiful and spotless. The host, Adrianna was very informative when it came to dining, excursions, renting a vehicle, and so much more! We took advantage of the personal chef coming out to the house to prepare a delicious dinner. Lastly, the communication was seamless! The host was responsive and considerate to help fix any issues we encountered. We definitely would book again!

It was our pleasure to host your group Natally! We wish you the best in your wedding and blessed days ahead. You are welcome to come back anytime! Pura vida ✨

This was truly a gem in the jungle.  super engaged host, clear instructions, wonderful housekeeping and a beautiful home.  I already miss it.  Perfect retreat for my family to enjoy downtime and minutes from the Dominicalito beach.

You are welcome to come back anytime Katie! Thank you for treating our villa with such great care. ✨

Stayed here for my 30th birthday and we had a great time. The host was super communicative and helped arrange transportation, massages, private chef. The housekeeper jussy was also amazing!

We had an amazing stay.  Perfect blend of luxury and adventure.

We are glad you had an amazing stay Kyle! Thanks for staying with us ✨

A beautiful house with a gorgeous view of Dominicalito Bay from high on the mountain.

Villa Kañik is a magical and spectacular place. We felt right at home. The house is stunning, the surroundings beautiful and the view was unreal. I can only say the very best things about this place. Adriana was an amazing host and very proactive, responsive and helpful. The design of the house was very stylish and tasteful and offered so many social areas and sitting areas. We loved it!  We made some wonderful memories here. 5 stars all the way!!!

Beautiful home and the views were magnificent highly recommend.  We enjoyed our stay, loved the local cooks and private chef experience.  We fell in love with Costa Rica and would come back.   Owners were very helpful to answer all questions and give recommendations.  Book your stay here you will love it.

Thank you Erika for staying with us during the holidays! You are welcome to back back anytime! 🇨🇷

We had our family vacation at Villa Kanik and had amazing time! The house is STUNNING and the pictures do not do it justice. Adriana and Patrick have curated a lovely staff of services from transportation, spa, and food! If you have the opportunity please take advantage of the local cook and private chef experiences. The food was amazing and it was so convenient have meals ready for us. Jussy, who helped cook meals and clean the home was lovely. Her food was so good and she was so diligent with keeping the home clean and helping us with laundry, etc. Last but not least the home is at the top of a mountain with stunning views of the ocean and the forest. You can enjoy the pool while literally being immersed in nature. Adriana was an amazing host, who was always very kind and responsive. I’ve never experienced anything like this before and would highly recommend to anyone visiting Costa Rica in the future.

Thank you so much Candice for this amazing review! It was our pleasure to host your family. Grateful for your visit. You are welcome to come back anytime! Happy holidays ✨

Super grateful for the host and their understanding to me and my travel crew. This has been one for the books for us. An amazing house with amazing views. The total experience was a blessing

Beautiful home, incredible view- amazing place! The house was awesome and has everything you could need. We even made wood fired pizzas one night! The beds are fantastic, the pool was so fun- especially at sunset! Great communication and very helpful. Our car was not a 4x4. Definitely need a 4x4 to get to the house. We ended up parking ours and getting monkey rides up. They helped us get in touch and work it out. Played loads of games at night outside on the table. Jussy was great! Close beaches- make sure and drive to Marina Balleno! Poza Azul waterfall is really close- go there too! We loved it here!

This is our second stay here over the past year. We love coming back. It is as picturesque as it gets, private, and pictures do not do it justice. Adriana is very responsive and proactive and Jussy the housekeeper is too notch. Thank you for a great stay.

Thank you Lincoln! We are very grateful for having the privilege of hosting you twice in Costa Rica. Thanks for taking such good care of our villa. Safe travels and we wish to welcome you back some other time 🇨🇷

Villa Kañik is more than we expected! The house is super cozy, with an amazing ocean view, surrounded by nature and also close to waterfalls, beaches, restaurants, etc. Having breakfast included was such a treat! It was fresh and absolutely delicious. We loved it so much that we couldn’t resist booking the chef for a private dinner one night, which was amazing. To top it all off, we enjoyed a massage at the house that was hands down better than any spa experience we’ve had. Thank you!!! We had an amazing experience!

Thanks Gianfranco for choosing to stay with us! We are glad you had a great experience in our villa. You are always welcome to come back.

Our stay at in Villa Kañik was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, we felt completely at ease and well taken care of. The villa was exactly as described—spacious, impeccably clean, and situated in a stunning location that allowed us to enjoy Costa Rica’s natural beauty to the fullest. The highlight of our experience was the incredible hospitality. The hosts were extremely responsive and went above and beyond to ensure our trip was seamless. They helped us organize all our activities and excursions with ease, making what could have been a complicated process simple and stress-free. Their communication was prompt and clear, and they were always available to answer questions or provide recommendations. Jussy, the cleaning lady, was another standout. She was professional, thorough, and an absolute delight. Overall, this was one of the best vacation experiences we’ve ever had. Five stars all the way!

Wow, thanks Francesca for your words of appreciation! This us what makes our job so much pleasant, knowing that our guests have unforgettable experiences in our villa. You are welcome to back anytime.

Villa Kanik is an amazing property featuring stunning views and a beautiful interior. The open floor plan provided a great family gathering area, while the ensuite rooms provided a quiet escape. And as incredible as the home was, the help from the hosts was even better. They made wonderful recommendations, connecting us with an in-home chef (phenomenal), surfing lessons,  ziplining and more - and their response times nearly instant. The daily housekeeping and laundry, in addition to the grounds crew ensured the property was always immaculate. This is definitely a 5-star location.

Thank you Chris for this beautiful review! It fills us with joy when our guests have great experiences and can truly enjoy and relax. We hope you come back sometime in the future. Pura vida 🇨🇷

Gracias Leo por tus comentarios. Nos alegra saber que disfrutaste la villa y que tuviste una experiencia inolvidable. Esperamos que vuelvas pronto! Pura vida

Our stay at Villa Kañik was exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the hosts were very responsive, making check-in easy and flexible. The house has a warm, welcoming atmosphere, and we felt right at home in paradise immediately. The instructions were clear, and everything was impeccable. The bathrooms are a dream, the beds are more comfortable than any I’ve experienced, and the furniture and linens were spotless. The kitchen is fully equipped, and the house matched the description perfectly—it looks even better than the photos. The location is wonderful, surrounded by jungle but just under 10 minutes from a beautiful beach and waterfall, and very close to restaurants and other must-sees in Dominical. There are plenty of activities to enjoy in the area, and I appreciated the local recommendations that truly enhanced our experience. Jussy was incredible in welcoming us to the house and was always responsive to anything we needed. She is the rock star who keeps the house beautiful an

Thank you Erika for coming back this year and choosing to stay with us again. You are always welcome! Pura vida :)

The house is just beautiful. It is special in both the location and the decor and furnishings. Being almost in the jungle, swimming in the pool at the same time overlooking the sea is probably rather unique. The two master rooms are very, very nice, each with a sea view. We felt very comfortable and would have liked to stay longer.

Das Haus ist einfach wunderschön. Sowohl von der Lage als auch der Einrichtung und Ausstattung ist es besonders. Quasi im Dschungel zu sein, gleichzeitig im Pool zu schwimmen mit Blick aufs Meer ist wohl eher einzigartig. Die beiden Masterzimmer sind sehr, sehr schön, jeweils mit Meerblick. Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt und wären gern länger geblieben.

Thank you Nina for choosing to stay with us in our little piece of paradise in Costa Rica 💚🇨🇷.

We had a wonderful stay at Adriana and Patrick’s place! Adriana was very helpful and communicative throughout our stay and the villa was perfect for our family. Beds were comfortable, the pool was great and the view was incredible. She also helped us coordinate all of the additional activities we wanted to experience during our time at the villa. I would highly recommend the surf lesson (ours was with Flaco) as well as the snorkeling excursion where we were lucky enough to see a bunch of whales (tour was with Costa Rica Dive and Surf). We also had the private chef cook dinner for us one evening which was delicious. We would love to stay again in the future!

Grateful & honored to have hosted your family in such an important ocassion of your engagement Mikayla. Very happy that you got to experience the adventures and wildlife of our area. We hope to welcome you back in the near future. Pura vida :)

Villa Kañik is an amazing and beautiful house that exceeded all our expectations. The views from the villa are breathtaking, and the house itself is nestled deep in nature, offering a calm and serene environment. Its location is perfect, being very near to both the beach and the town, providing the ideal balance of tranquility and convenience. The hosts provided exceptional help before & during our stay, making sure we had everything we needed. Adriana and Patrick were very communicative and recommended great options of restaurants and things to do in the area. They included cleaning service in our stay, and this made a huge difference in our vacations, especially since we were traveling with kids. The housekeeper came in the mornings and left the villa neat and tidy every day. She also did laundry for us, which was a total treat. Our experience at Villa Kañik was nothing short of spectacular, and we can’t wait to return!

Thank you Stephanie! We are grateful you selected our villa for your vacations and were able to enjoy and truly relax with the family. Pura vida!

Our stay at Patrick and Adrianna's modern luxury house in Dominicalito, Costa Rica, was exceptional. The house boasts stunning modern design with Hawaiian-style living, a sparkling infinity pool, and multiple outdoor seating areas. We loved dining at the beautiful live-edge table. The housekeeper and breakfast cook, Jussy, made delicious breakfasts and kept the house immaculate. Adrianna was proactive and responsive to all our questions, ensuring we had everything we needed and felt very safe. The location is perfect, with close proximity to the beach and local restaurants. The house manual provided excellent recommendations for local eateries, activities, and attractions. We highly recommend this property for a luxurious and relaxing getaway. Thank you, Patrick and Adrianna, for being wonderful hosts!

Thank you Jason for the detailed and kind review. We feel so happy when out guests are able to enjoy all the services that the villa offers and also the natural surroundings and adventures. We hope to welcome you back anytime! Pura vida :)

Villa Kañik was a dream adventure. Our hosts did an immaculate job in booking our excursions and connecting us with the best people. We were a family of 8 and the  home truly felt like our home for 6 days. I highly recommend.

Thank you Jason! We are glad you were able to experience the full combo that our villa offers: starting with relaxing spa treatments and enjoying the local cook services. As well as embracing the adventures of our area and even catching some good waves! The true pura vida experience ☺️ You are welcome to back anytime!

Most welcoming home we have stayed in! Near beach, waterfalls, hiking, Manuel Antonio NP and dozens of excellent restaurants. They exceeded in all areas. They share their home and help with the experience. The beds are so comfortable! They have everything you need! Jussy(housekeeper) kept the house spotless, we had her cook two fabulous breakfasts for us and served it on that amazing patio . It was nice to come in each night to clean laundry on our beds. Adriana checks on you daily and is there to answer questions about local activities/recommendations. You do not have to leave to see the wildlife! Monkeys, sloths, toucans right in the trees surrounding the house. We liked running to all balconies to follow their activity. The house is even more beautiful in person! We were comfortable, happy and felt safe! Beautiful Airbnb run by good people! WELL DONE ADRIANA AND PATRICK! THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR HOME AND MAKING OUR STAY GREAT! We did not want to leave!

Thank you Margaret for the kind words of appreciation. We loved hosting your family! Please come back anytime :)

We can’t say enough good things about villa kanik!! Its even better then the pictures. The house is fantastic for a group and includes a cleaning lady to help keep it tity. The kitchen is stocked with all the necessities to cook and the beds are incredibly soft. This house is a gem in an incredible area of Costa Rica.

Thank you Kelly for staying with us and for the great review. We hope to welcome you back sometime soon!

If you think the pictures are beautiful, just wait till you see it in person. 6 guest and myself had the pleasure of staying at the villa for my bday. Everyone was comfortable and there was plenty of space. My bed was so comfortable. I had the master bedroom upstairs. I slept so good. I took all of the recommendations from the host and I’m so glad I did. We had an amazing spa day for all 7 of us comfortably set up out by the pool, the transportation service that was set up took us everywhere we needed to go, always on time, and waited on us. We were actually very sad to leave. We used the local cook who came and fed us the most amazing breakfast/ lunch. Our rooms and beds were made when we returned and clothes folded nicely on the couch for us. We had chef service for two nights of dinner that was 10/10. Guys I truly cannot say enough about the house itself, the beauty of the area, and the amazing host Patrick and Adriana. You truly won’t regret it❤️

Thank you Tiffany for choosing to stay with us in your special occasion. We are very grateful for your kind review. We wish you come back and stay with us again!

Words & photos don't do this house and view justice. It's absolutely breathtaking. Worth every cent to stay here and wake up to the monkey and jungle sounds, and see the ocean views. And althoug you're in the middle of the jungle, the house is very well cared for, clean and high quality style. Adriana & Patrick were extremely responsive and helped us with recommendations and any questions we had. All of their recs were spot on and made our stay extra special. 4x4 is required, however a few minutes drive down the mountain to Playa Dominicalito, ~7 min drive to Dominical and 10 min to Uvita. The perfect location for us (2 families with young children.)  We will 100% be back! Gracias por todo!

Thank you Kelly! We’ll be happy to host you again anytime! Pura vida! 🇨🇷

Patrick and Adriana were incredible hosts. The Villa Kanik was absolutely beautiful and allowed everyone to see Costa Rica from an amazing space. They were incredibly responsive, helpful, and proactive. Adriana helped us get everything we wanted out of our trip. We had private chefs come in a couple of nights to make us dinner and masseuse’s delivered incredible spa services. The Villa is in a quiet mountain with a stunning view of the ocean and it was just a 5 minute drive into Playa Dominical. Early in the mornings we even got to see tiny monkeys playing in the tree’s near the villa. Any questions we had during our trip were answered in a quick manner by the hosts and they would periodically check in to make sure we had everything we needed. Our trip to Costa Rica was nothing short of amazing and the Villa Kanik was a great place to call home for a week. I would recommend staying here to anyone that is interested in getting to see where the Jungle meets the Sea.

Thank you Kameron for staying with us! It makes us very happy when our guests have memorable stays, and are able to experience all the adventures and wilderness that Costa Rica has to offer. We hope to welcome you back any time! Pura Vida :)

Had a great stay at Villa Kanik. We spent a lot of time in the home as it was so peaceful and relaxing. Adriana was our point of contact and she was always responsive to our messages and questions before and during our stay. Jussy the cleaner was awesome, in nearly every morning making sure the place was spotless and letting us truly relax as we knew she had things well in hand. Google maps is your friend getting to the house. Power does go out from time to time but this is to be expected in Costa Rica and up in the hills. There's a ton to do in the surrounding Dominical, Uvita and Quepos. The Kitchen was well supplied with all the items we needed to cook up meals throughout the stay.

Thank you Mike for choosing to stay with us for your retreat with friends. It truly makes us happy to provide peaceful and relaxing experiences for our guests. It was a pleasure to host you!

Our family of four, plus the two grandmas, had such a memorable experience at Villa Kañik. We knew that this multigenerational trip was going to have to be a bit less active (though there is plenty to do in/near Dominical for those seeking adventure), and this was such a lovely place to appreciate the beauty and peace of Costa Rica. The house is clean, modern, and beautiful, and the views are breathtaking. We loved relaxing outside, listening to the sounds of the jungle, and spotting monkeys and toucans in the surrounding trees. Adriana was extremely responsive and helpful throughout our entire stay, and offered many helpful recommendations. We arranged to have the housekeeper/cook, Jussy, cook breakfast on our first and last mornings. It felt really special to eat typical Costa Rican food, while surrounded by the sights and sounds of this very beautiful home in Dominical. We loved our stay at Villa Kañik, and were thankful to have such a wonderful time there with our family.

It was such a pleasure to host your family Gina! We are glad you enjoyed the peace and wildlife that surrounds our villa, taking good memories with you of Costa Rica. You are welcome to back anytime. Pura vida!

This beautiful villa in Dominicalito was absolutely perfect!  The setting was peaceful and private and we enjoyed the beautiful sounds of the jungle especially in the morning.  It is also incredibly close to so many fabulous restaurants in Dominical.  We took advantage every morning of The Shala yoga as well just at the bottom of the hill.  The villa was beautiful, pristinely well kept and wonderfully decorated.  We loved our time!

Thank you Molly for choosing to stay with us and for leaving this great review. It makes us happy when our guests enjoy their time in the villa and its beautiful surroundings. You are welcome to come back anytime. Pura vida!

Our stay at Villa Kañik was incredible!!! I have been to Costa Rica about 20 times, and this was the nicest AirBnb we have ever stayed at in Costa Rica! The home is in a great neighborhood on the mountainside overlooking Dominicalito and the sunset views are unreal. The only neighbors were the occasional visiting monkeys and toucans! All of the beds and pillows were super comfy and the entire home and grounds were impeccable. All bedrooms and common areas have HVAC. It is about 5 minutes to Dominicalito or 10 minutes to Dominical by car. We rented a 12 passenger van with only 2 wheel drive and we did not have any issues driving on the roads to the home. We prefer staying on the mountain because it is a little cooler than the lodging right on the beach and the views are unbeatable. It is an easy drive to the beach or town. I would highly recommend this home to anyone and I hope to stay here again!

Thank you Dwight for choosing to stay with us at Villa Kanik! It makes us happy when our guests enjoy and have memorable days. We wish to welcome you again when you come back to the area. Pura Vida!!

Villa Kañik was immaculate. The pictures are so beautiful but, to see this villa in person is like no other. To start I booked Villa Kañik to celebrate my birthday this year and this was the most perfect birthday ever. From the moment I booked Villa Kañik, Adriana was so amazingly helpful. Adriana helped me set up everything for my trip from restaurant reservations, our yacht excursion, private chef dinners, private spa service, and the delivery of my birthday cake and roses, everything was perfect! The Villa was so stunning, so beautiful, and our lovely housekeeper Ms. Jussy was so sweet and I appreciated her hospitality, kindness, and she made breakfast perfect every morning! Adriana was communicative, she constantly checked in on us, and she ensured that we had everything we needed to enjoy our lovely stay at Villa Kañik. I have so much gratitude to Adriana, Jussy, and Katherine, like this trip was better than what I could have expected, thank you so much Adriana and Patrick !

We are very grateful for you choosing Villa Kañik for your special celebration! It makes us very happy to host memorable vacations. Thank you once again for staying with us and we hope to welcome you back anytime. Pura vida :)

The only negative thing I can say is that we didn't spend long enough in this amazing home. Absolutely stunning surroundings, with views all around and out of every single room, amazing pool, and the rooms were tidy and clean. The house sits about a 6 minute drive on a dirt road but with Adriana's instructions it was very easy to find. Adriana was super responsive and facilitated a private chef one of the nights. Good Wifi and everything worked. Super nice place that we will look to stay again in the future.

Thank you Reed! We look forward to welcome you back soon! Pura vida

Our stay at the villa was fantastic, the view from the pool a stunning and the location is very private and quiet. The place was very comfortable, minimal bugs outside which was a great addon, and the AC in common spaces was a great too. We choose to have local breakfast every morning and the group really enjoyed it. overall 5 out 5.. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely book again if we return to the area.

We take a 6 week trip through Costa Rica with our adult kids and have already seen some neighborhoods. This house is clearly one of our favorites. An exceptional architecture and very nice interior design. We would also like to explicitly mention our daily friendly support by Jussy! Everything was clean and perfect! That's all you can expect! We would book this house again anytime! The whole family loved this house and felt very comfortable from the first minute!

Wir unternehmen mit unseren erwachsenen Kindern eine 6-wöchige Reise durch Costa Rica und haben schon einige Quartiere gesehen. Dieses Haus gehört ganz klar zu unseren Favoriten. Eine außergewöhnliche Architektur und sehr schöne Inneneinrichtung. Unsere tägliche freundliche Unterstützung durch Jussy möchten wir auch noch ausdrücklich erwähnen! Alles war sauber und perfekt! Mehr kann man nicht erwarten! Wir würden jederzeit dieses Haus wieder buchen! Die gesamte Familie war von diesem Haus begeistert und hat sich von der ersten Minute an sehr wohlgefühlt!

Thank you Roberto & Ines for your kind words! It makes us really happy when our guests collect memorable moments in our Villa. We wish you continue enjoying Costa Rica and you are welcome to come back to Villa Kañik anytime!

The Lugar is a dream!  Everything  beautiful and impeccable very comfortable , ideal for Families,  definitely the best place in the area!

El Lugar es un sueño!  todo  precioso e impecable muy cómodo , ideal para Familias,  definitivamente el mejor lugar de la zona!

Best view of any house I’ve been in…anywhere.

We chose this Villa as a place to exchange our vows and have a small wedding ceremony with a few family members. The pictures showed amazing views and lot's of comfortable space for us to stay. We were completely blown away! Every aspect of our stay was amazing. The Villa is just like the pictures and the description and so much more! The private chef for our wedding night was unreal. The food was delicious and we had so much fun. You definitely need a 4x4 vehicle to make it up the hill to the Villa, but what an awesome experiencing to be up in the amazing jungle overlooking the ocean. We went fishing nearby in Quepos, side by side riding with a tour in Uvita and ate at some really good places along the way in Dominical and Uvita. I can't say enough good things about this place! We plan to hopefully be back someday!

We can’t say enough about how great this property and the hosts were! Adriana was extremely responsive and proactive, checking to see how we were enjoying things and answering any questions we had immediately. The home and property are just like the photos and the view is heavenly. The woman who comes daily to clean was very good and helped us with our laundry, which made doing daily excursions go very smoothly. We greatly appreciated how Adriana not only gave us great recommendations for restaurants and excursions, but she also took care of the reservations and scheduling for us. Adriana made our transportation seamless by connecting us with a very good company that picked us up at the airport and took us to the property as well as left us with a 4x4 vehicle for the week. We are extremely impressed with our entire experience and would highly recommend booking with Adriana at Villa Kanik. She goes above and beyond in making every detail of your vacation the best it can be.

Thank you so much Jennifer for such a wonderful review. It makes us happy when our guests can truly enjoy the full experience at Villa Kañik and its surroundings. We are very grateful with you and your family for having stayed with us and taking such good care of the villa. We hope to welcome you back soon :)

Villa Kanik was an excellent location for us as we had stayed in the same area several years ago. Beautiful views and housekeeping was excellent! The home was exactly as it was described and had all we needed to accommodate our large group. Adriana was very helpful and attentive to anything we needed. I would definitely recommend this place!

House is amazing and in an amazing spot, private but still very close to the beach at the bottom of the hill (with several to choose from close by) with an unbeatable view. It's even nicer than the pictures when you walk in. We have 2 young kids and the house worked very well. We look forward to a potential stay next year! Highly recommended.

Thank you Lincoln!! It was great having your family staying with us. We look forward to hosting you again ✨

I absolutely fell in love with this place. We stayed here to celebrate my mother’s birthday and the villa exceeded our expectations. They helped coordinate cake, flowers, balloons, massages and a private cook. Adriana and Jussy were absolutely lovely. I was sad to leave but can’t wait to come back and rent the villa again! ♥️

Thank you Ana for your kind review! We feel honored that you chose us for your special celebration! We loved hosting you and hope to welcome you back sometime soon!

Choosing an ideal space where you can host our surf and pilates retreats is of utmost importance. We are looking for places that bring us closer to nature, provide a safe space, with common areas that allow us to connect and share. Villa Kañik was perfect, he gave us all that and more. The energy of this place is magical! It is close to all amenities but at the same time makes you feel immersed in the jungle, giving us the serenity and tranquility we were looking for. Undoubtedly Villa Kañik, it was the perfect setting for a unique experience and we can't wait to return! Plus, Patrick and Adri were the most! Always attentive, friendly and willing to help. Thank you for all

Elegir un espacio ideal en donde hostear nuestros retiros para mujeres de surf y pilates es de suma importancia. Buscamos lugares que nos acerquen a la naturaleza, brinden un espacio seguro, con áreas comunes que nos permitan conectar y compartir. Villa Kañik fue perfecto, nos dió todo eso y más. La energía de este lugar es mágica! Está cerca de todas las comodidades pero a la vez te hace sentir sumergida en la jungla, brindandonos la serenidad y tranquilidad que estabamos buscando. Sin duda, Villa Kañik, fué el escenario perfecto para brindar una experiencia única y no podemos esperar para regresar! Además, Patrick y Adri fueron lo máximo! Siempre atentos, amables y dispuestos a ayudar. ¡Gracias por todo!

Gracias Eri por escogernos para sus retiros y por cuidar de la Villa con tanto amor y respeto. Esperamos recibirlos nuevamente pronto!

Adriana and Patrick’s home Exceeded our expectations! The decor, the views, the cleanliness, the comfort of their home, it was truly a dream. Not only were they were very kind and easy to get in touch with, they offered a ton of options and suggestions. The spa was truly special, and the food was so fresh and delicious, we will absolutely be coming back.

We LOVED Villa Kañik. It was sparkling clean, comfortable, & convenient with a magical view.  We opted for the daily breakfast service by the amazing Jussy who delivered a delicious spread of fresh Costa Rican food and helped us keep all living areas fresh and tidy.  The house is up a gravel hill with a great surf break just across the street at Playa Dominicalito.  There is a cute market nearby called Mama Toucans which has all the essentials.  There are plenty of waterfall hikes within a short drive and the house serves as a perfect place to relax and recharge. The beds/pillows are super comfy - we all slept like babies the whole trip.  Check in and check out was no problem. We would definitely come back. Thanks Adriana!

Thank you Ansley for staying with us in Costa Rica! It was our pleasure to host your group and it makes us very happy to know that you enjoyed your days. You are welcome to back any time! Pura vida :)

Above and beyond my expectations, the house is simply incredible and the hospitality is even better. Great destination for a nice, relaxing getaway and I definitely recommend!

Thank you Suzahn! You are welcome to come back anytime! Pura vida

Our stay at Villa Kañik was fantastic. The cohost, Adriana, was quick to respond to questions or issues we had. She assisted in booking many activities for us, which made the experience feel luxurious without the stress of planning everything. The property itself is brand new. The beds are all incredibly comfortable, and the house is kept very clean by a cleaner that came twice during our stay. The property is secluded on a mountain with beautiful views, but that does come with interaction with insects, salamanders, etc, while you are outside (especially at night). We could even hear howler monkeys in the distance. Overall, I would highly recommend staying at this beautiful property.

Thank you Ashley for staying with us! We are happy that you enjoyed your stay at Villa Kañik. We hope to welcome you back anytime. Pura vida!

Look no further !! KANIK is the place to stay . Super clean ,extremely comfortable!beds are a dream, so soft and comfortable. Private gate access making you and your family feeling safe. Ocean view is outstanding with all bedrooms having balcony or pool access .  Cleaning lady is wonderful and did our laundry and folded all our clothes .(tips was so appreciated )😊added plus, would be the KAPUCHIN monkeys we saw on the property .Yes on the property , for FREE, no need to visit the national park . If you go out to the front, between 6-7am you will very likely almost everyday , see over a dozen friendly little monkeys!!! At the pool we were lucky to see a toucan , and 2 large colourful parrots! just an 8-15min drive to the dominical beach , (which does not require an entry fee or parking fee) the waves can be a little strong some days , but there are lifeguards on the beach until 6pm paying close attention.enjoy all the amenities Restaurants, tiki bars. 24/7 service. 5 stars all the way

Thank you Diane for your wonderful review! We look forward to hosting you again when you are back in Costa Rica!

My friends and I stayed here for a few days and did not want to leave. The pictures don’t even do this home justice. Villa Kanik is something special. The house has amazing features like an infinity pool, outdoor bath, balcony’s in each room.. the list goes on and on! We were in paradise with a view of the ocean AND super comfortable beds. We can’t wait to return. Thank you villa kanik and the helpful and responsive hosts! And thank you Jussy, the attentive housekeeper!
