This is a beautiful place with an even better host … this is definitely one of my return homes , absolutely love it

Landon’s place was a dream after a vacation with lots of adventure. It was the ideal place to unwind and relax. We have 3 teenagers and we had plenty of room for them to spread out. The pool was a hit! We saw toucans every morning and many other birds. The hosts were very communicative and we had the option to book excursions with them. This stay exceeded our expectations.

La Luna is a beautiful spot. The view from the pool is stunning and the place was easy to find and spotless. Landon was extremely responsive. We had a couple of issues that he dealt with immediately. We would stay again.

Great place! The view and the pool were amazing! The road is a little crazy (need 4wheel drive) but totally worth it once you get there. Scala restaurant down the road is great for lunch or dinner (didn’t have breakfast there but that is probably great as well). We heard howler monkeys in the morning which was actually really cool to hear. Great vacation!

The home is WOW!  From the moment you walk through the doors  you will be blown away. The outdoor space was my favorite!  The sounds of nature envelope you. Landon was always available, even when we had a late drain issue. Juli checked in daily to make sure we had our itinerary set for the day. I hope I have the pleasure of staying here again. Would not hesitate to recommend!  Pura Vida!

An adventure from the start—the drive up requires a true 4x4 (we learned the hard way when our car got stuck at night). Thankfully, Landon came to the rescue and got us safely up the hill. Once there, everything shifted—the home is stunning, spotless, and the views are dreamlike. Mornings began with swims, jazz and open-air meals with the patio doors wide open. Wildlife visits (toucans, lizards, even a capybara-like sighting) made it even more special. Neighbors were kind, and Escala nearby was excellent. Light construction was barely noticeable. Landon was attentive throughout, and Julie helped us book a beautiful couples massage to end the trip. Highly recommend—would absolutely return.

We loved Landon’s Airbnb! It was an amazing location with lots in the area to do! The photos don’t do the Airbnb justice and the views are so beautiful. We woke up every morning seeing toucans from our rooms! Landon and Juli were both very responsive, kind and helpful. We also loved that it was the perfect middle ground between Dominical and Uvita

Casa Luna is truly one of the most beautiful places we’ve ever stayed. The view, the constant gentle breeze, the pool, every detail feels nourishing and thoughtfully held. It genuinely feels like a slice of heaven. You’re perfectly positioned: close to everything in town, yet completely tucked away in peaceful seclusion. There’s also an incredible restaurant just down the road, which makes the location even more ideal. Staying here feels expansive, restorative, and breathtaking in every sense. You’ll feel very lucky to experience it.

This house was spectacular, the views were amazing, and it was in a good location! It was close to the beach and many restaurants. Pictures don't do it justice. This house was incredible. Landon was a great host. He always responded quickly and was very easy to work with.

Sweeping views, luxurious pool, perfect location.  We can't wait to come back!

Amazing view and pool! Very friendly and responsive host and concierge! Our family had a great time!!

Thank you Sarah, we enjoyed hosting your wonderful family

Beautiful home with the most stunning view I’ve ever seen. Everything—from the pool to the linens and beds were wonderful. I also had an incredible in-home massage by Sol all set up by Juli the concierge. We came during the rainy season, but the home is set up so well you can still enjoy the outside even when it’s raining. You definitely need a 4x4 to get up the mountain, but honestly, that’s part of the adventure and totally worth it. Definitely check out Scala for dinner. We’d absolutely stay here again!

Wonderful! Glad you had a good experience

Beautiful views!!! Great location! Great host!

Perfect spot near the top of the mountain, overlooking the Pacific Ocean!  Convenient to Dominical & Uvita.  Landon & Juli (the concierge) were both very helpful and responsive!  Pool was great & house is beautiful!  Nothing like a cup of coffee in the morning overlooking the infiniti pool and the whale tale.

We agree completely! Nothing like Villa la Luna :) 🌙

Absolutely wonderful stay at Villa Luna! Everything about this place was fantastic—the view is truly to die for, and the pool was a dream. The villa was perfectly set up, comfortable, and had everything we needed. Landon and Juli were incredibly helpful and kind, making sure everything was just right. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay—highly, highly recommended!

Thank you Ariane, it was equally a pleasure for us to host you all!~ VLL

A great house, very quiet and private, with breathtaking views, a fire pit perfect for family sharing, the pool is the best to refresh yourself, close to good supermarkets and restaurants. We will definitely go again.

Una casa fantàstica, muy tranquila y privada, con vistas impresionantes, un area de fogata perfecta para compartir en familia, la piscina es de lo mejor para refrescarse, cerca de buenos supermercados y restaurantes. Sin duda volveremos a ir.

What can I say about this magical home that hasn’t already been said. All reviews (less the negative one) are spot on, so based on that, it was easy to book.  Once the booking was made everything was really so easy. Landon was great to communicate with and the villa was even better in person.  It was absolutely SPECTACULAR with the large pool being frosting on the cake.  I will say that others are right in mentioning the need of a 4 wheel drive to get up the mountain but I think that is just really needed for anywhere you explore in Costa Rica.  While the roads are steep and bumpy getting up to La Luna, the climb is so worth it. The only negative is that we never wanted to leave the property to explore.  We did go to the Whale’s Tail for one morning when tide was low. It was lovely. Very hot so go in morning.  We loved bar hopping in Dominical and the restaurant Scala down the hill from La Luna was delish!  We loved our week in this little slice of paradise. I cannot rec this enough!

Thank you for the kind words, Traci! We really enjoyed getting to know your crew. Really great people.

We enjoyed our stay at this home.  The view was gorgeous and made our trip.  We were lucky to have monkeys visit us on the last day (along with toucans and hummingbirds!). The home was exactly as advertised.   As other reviews shared, the drive up is a bit challenging and a 4 wheel drive is preferred.  The kitchen was well equipped.  We had a few minor issues the some maintenance items but they were resolved very quickly.  Overall, a great stay in a beautiful country!

We loved our stay at Bella Luna! The house is beautiful. Spacious and beautiful grounds with a lovely pool and view. Kitchen was well stocked. Location is great and we love having access to the coffee shop and restaurant down the road. Landon was a great communicator and made check in and check out super smooth and easy. Would definitely stay here again!

Thank you Susie!! Hope to see you all enjoying our area another time soon :D

This is our second time at La Luna. If I were to live in Costa Rica, this is where I would live. The whole experience is awesome. Landon and Juli make everything so easy and help make being in a foreign place so easy. The house has the best views ever and has even you need. We were close to stores, restaurants and things to do. Just can’t say enough about this place.

Thank you again Paul! Don't be a stranger, see ya soon :)

Our family really enjoyed our stay at casa Luna. The view is amazing! Well equipped kitchen, necessary appliances. We didn't want to leave the house! Very  nice. The kids enjoyed the pool! Thank you for a wonderful vacation.

Нашей семье очень понравилось прибывание в casa Luna. Вид потрясающий! Хорошо оборудованая кухня, необходимая бытовая техника. Нам не хотелось покидать дом! Очень  красиво. Дети наслаждались бассейном! Спасибо за прекрасный отпуск.

No more needs to be said. We enjoyed it! - VLL

This was our first visit to Costa Rica and it will forever be special. The home was just as described and view was insanely beautiful! Our family truly enjoyed the infinity pool overlooking the whales tale and the indoor/outdoor living. The communication was top notch and recommendations impeccable. You have got to book massages at the house! Thanks to Landon and Juli! You’re absolutely wonderful hosts. Until next time…..

Thank you as well, we enjoyed having you. Come back soon!

This is our second time staying here. We loved it! Beautiful and peaceful! We will definitely stay again.

You are always welcome, it was a joy again to have your awesome family!

The house was beautiful with stunning grounds, amazing views, comfortable. Location provides spectacular 180 degree views. Would love to give it a 5 star review but we had significant issues during our stay. The host tried to remedy them but a warning to future renters some issues are not simply solved. First, our booking was double booked causing us to have to change plans one week prior, we rolled with it. Next, check in says 3pm but we received limited instructions and when the time came the house was not ready do to an unforeseen emergency with housekeeping until 5pm, we rolled with it. Then night one the master toilet stopped working and shower had no water, we thought maybe just low pressure. What we didn’t know is that we would lose water for over 27 hours. Washing dishes and ourselves with pool water. It was fixed for about 10 hours and then went out again. We understand things happen and we were told there’s things are common so be aware.

Our stellar reviews at Villa la Luna are obviously a sense of great pride but we know that outlier cases do exist so we want to explain the situation carefully and respectfully. Thank you for the compliments on the house and the views! We understand the frustration with the failure in the water system. We share that frustration. The municipal water main broke lower on the mountainside, something we cannot control, and the water Municipality was not able to complete the repair and restore water to the house for a full day. The property manager, Landon, kept in constant communication throughout the stay and responded to your message as soon as he received it. The issue was immediately investigated and troubleshooted. He spent the entire day and late into the evening on the mountain, between the house, the work crew repairing the water main, communicating with the municipality higher ups, and the municipal intake and storage tanks higher on the mountain, trying to find a way to restore water as quickly as possible. The house is in the jungle, so we try to prepare for these unhappy surprises. Earlier this year, we made a significant investment in a large storage tank and robust water pump so that the house would have 1-2 days of water even if the municipal supply is interrupted. Unfortunately, a sensor on our new pump failed just when we needed it most, so while we had a tank full of water, we could not sustain water pressure inside the house. Throughout the day while troubleshooting the municipal water source, Landon was also urging the company who installed our new tank and pump to come to the house to check the system, but unfortunately they were not able to come out until the following day. In recognition of the inconvenience to you and your party, Landon offered to pay the service fee for a private chef to come to the house and prepare dinner for your group, which you accepted. With respect to your booking arrangements, a more complete recitation is helpful. You initially booked the house in September 2023 for July 2024. Eight months later, you asked if you could arrive two days earlier than the original date. Landon initially told you the additional days would be acceptable, but later realized they would overlap with a recent booking that preceded you. He advised you of this conflict, and your booking was restored to your original dates. The message thread between you on the Airbnb app confirms this occurred three weeks before your arrival, not one week as you stated in your review. As for check-in, the listing clearly states that check-in time is 4:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. On the day of your arrival, you contacted Landon to request early check-in at 3:00 p.m. We try to accommodate early check-in requests whenever we can, but were unable to accommodate your request because one of the cleaners had an accident earlier in the day and had to be taken to the hospital. Cleaning was completed and the house ready for you at 4:45. We apologize for the 45 minute delay.

This home is stunning! The floor plan allows for privacy, with three en suite bedrooms but also has great community/ entertaining space too - with an open floor plan gourmet kitchen and family room. And, the entire back wall of the house opens up to the outdoors which is where we spent most of our time. A gorgeous infinity pool with ocean view, chaise loungers, grill, table and plenty of seating. Beds are very comfortable and Landon has thought of everything - including beach towels, kitchen oils/ spices, dishwasher pods and laundry detergent. It’s the perfect house to get away from it all and truly relax! * Note, this house has amazing views because it’s nestled up in the mountains. It’s a steep incline road off the highway to reach it - but well worth it once you do! 4x4 vehicle is a must and wise not to plan your arrival at night so you can get your bearings better.

Thank you Trish, we are so happy that you were able to spend some quality time here and hope you had an exquisite bday!!

We loved staying here!! The views were amazing and the house was beautiful! We will definitely be staying again. Book the private chef! You will not regret it! Thank you Landon for hosting us!

The Private Chef will be hearing your pleasant feedback and we can't wait to have you again this summer!

The house was very nice. Clean with an excellent floor plan and an awesome view from the back doors. We would stay again if visiting Costa Rica

Picturesque and serene, better than the pictures! The home is beautiful and totally amazing - glad we picked and spent the time with my daughter and her cousins. The pool was a big hit with kids and adults were chill and the views are breathtaking. Landon was an amazing host and was very communicative and flexible - appreciated all his help and recommendations. Would highly recommend for anyone to stay here :)

Thank you Raghu, you were such a charming group! Take care

The photos do not do this place justice! Even more beautiful in person. The view is absolutely breathtaking! The sounds of wildlife everyday, including howler monkeys, was amazing! Beautiful birds and a cool iguana hanging in the trees near the backyard. You really are in the jungle! Landon was a great host and greeted us at the door with the house all opened up to view the beautiful surroundings. He explained everything to us and made sure we had all we needed. He was very quick to respond to any needs. Which were very few. We did have a freak thunderstorm during dry season that took out power overnight, but it was no biggie. And it is a remote location, so it didn’t bother us. The road is VERY steep to the house so a 4x4 is a necessity. It was all part of our adventure so we didn’t mind it at all. Overall we were extremely pleased and would definitely go back again!

Thank you Holly it was such a pleasure to have your family here

Thank you Michelle, I enjoyed getting to know you all tremendously!

the villa is exactly as pictured and described with the best view I ever had at an airbnb (you can look directly at whale tail). The villa is spacious inside and out, great large pool, kitchen has everything you need. Wifi works well at all times. You can see many different animals just by standing in the garden. Driving up to the villa is super easy with a 4x4 vehicle. We had some power failures in the first week (mostly only a few minutes) but it's useful to bring a headlamp (second week everything was fine). Our host was available via text at all times and our concierge Juli was also a big help for planing activities. Overall we had a great stay and would love to visit again.

It was really refreshing how easy it was to get to know you all and we wish you all the best in Germany!

Definitely one of the most gorgeous views for any Airbnb near Uvita. We had a perfect view of Playa Uvita and Playa Hermosa from the backyard. The house is spacious and very clean. Long story short, everything was perfect! Would definitely stay there if we come back around Uvita!

Such an incredible and comfortable house. And Landon was such an amazing, responsive and helpful host. The house is actually even more spectacular than in the pictures, and we enjoyed it so much that we ended up staying more than we had originally planned. House was super clean when we arrived, and it’s obvious it’s well maintained. Many great restaurants a short drive away. Hanging out by the pool at night with the sounds of jungle was such a treat. I would absolutely stay there again. Highly recommended.

Thank you Antonin, we also agree about the real thing vs. pictures!

The villa is such a beautiful, private and peaceful property. The view certainly cannot be beat. Landon was very responsive to the needs of the group. I appreciate his efforts in helping our time in Costa Rica go by smoothly!

We had a blast staying at Villa de Luna! The view from the villa is absolutely stunning and the villa itself was better than expected. Landon was a great host— very friendly, responsive, and had great recommendations.  We would definitely recommend surfing! As the other reviews mentioned, the villa is located about 15 minutes up a rather steep and rocky drive, but one that is worth it for the experience. We were fine with our rented small 4x4 SUV. We 100% recommend Villa de Luna for your next Costa Rica trip!

Great house, surrounded by fantastic nature. Breathtaking views. Great host. The house has everything you need for a wonderful stay.

Villa Le Luna was incredible!!  2 couples went and we both had master bedrooms on opposite ends of villa that gave nice privacy when we needed some down time.  The views were incredible.  Landon was very attentive and quick to respond.  We were much later getting to the house than expected and he was very flexible and there to meet us to show us around.  Was also quick to respond when we had any questions or issues while there. The concierge- Juli- was AMAZING! She helped me plan the entire trip. Could not have done it without her help.  I highly recommend taking advantage of some of the extras the villa has to offer.  We got massages one night ( the best we’ve ever had) and had the private chef cook for us one night which was fantastic and he even played guitar and sang for us!  All around one of the best trips we have ever been on and will definitely be returning. Pura Vida!

This home is beautiful and the views are amazing! The road up to it is steep so I would recommend a 4wheel drive vehicle. Landon was also great at quickly responding to any issues or questions we had. We had a wonderful time staying here and would come back again!

Home was exquisite. Just as pictured. Views are breathtaking and the comfort of the home added to the beauty. Landon was always attentive to our needs and met us when we arrived and provided all the information  needed. Definately would go back. Highly recommended!

Everything was great! We had a wonderful time there.

The house was amazing. The views are spectacular. The property management was very attentive.

Villa La Luna is spectacular. We rented the house for 6 days to spend the family week. We know a lot about the area and have already rented other houses in this region. From the first moment we book they have a Concierge service where they have many possibilities for personal or family fun, massage or family fun option, massage option, chef, etc. Landon evacuated our doubts and at check-in he explained the details of the house. We had an issue with the water, the response was accurate and could be resolved quickly. The location of the house is perfect. A high car is occupied, however a 4x4 is not necessary, the street is actually quite good. The view of the house is unbelievable. The layout of the house, the spacious rooms with good quality beds and pillows and amenities such as cloths, soap, etc well. It has all kitchen implements, as well as an external barbecue. The photos don't credit how cute the house is. I recommend this option in Uvita.

Villa La Luna es espectacular. Alquilamos la casa durante 6 días para pasar semana en familia. Conocemos bastante la zona y ya hemos alquilado otras casas por esta región. Desde el primer momento en que reservamos cuentan con un servicio de Concierge en el que tienen muchas posibilidades para diversión personal o familiar, opción de masajes, chef, etc. Landon nos evacuó las dudas y a la hora del Check in nos explicó los detalles de la casa. Tuvimos un problema con el agua, la respuesta fue precisa y se pudo resolver de forma rápida. La ubicación de la casa es perfecta. Se ocupa un carro alto, sin embargo, un 4x4 no es necesario, la calle en realidad está bastante buena. La vista de la casa es increíble. La distribución de la casa, las habitaciones amplias con camas y almohadas de buena calidad y amenidades como paños, jabón, etc bien. Cuenta con todos los implementos de cocina, así como asador externo. Las fotos no le hacen crédito a lo linda que es la casa. Recomiendo esta opción en Uvita.

We had an amazing time at this beautiful Villa! It was clean, comfortable and Landon and Juli were amazing with us. We recommend it to anyone that want to enjoy a relaxing stay.

Our group of six loved our stay at this home hosted by Landon. The views were stunning, the home was clean, and it included fully stocked amenities. Landon was incredibly responsive and helpful, especially when we had car issues. A 4 wheel drive is absolutely necessary, as the house is on a rocky, steep incline and takes about 10 minutes to get to from the main road. Landon did meet us prior to guide us up the hill and do a full walk through of the home. Would recommend this house to anyone and would love to return!
