Alvin’s, villa is breath taking. I think his villas has the best view of the entire resort. Beach front view , steps from the beach , private stairway leads you directly to pull and bar! Secluded and private Black sand beach! Howler Monkies and all of Costa Rica’s wildlife right above your head. The interior was comfortable and roomy. I have a small family of 4 but this place can easily accommodate 6-7 comfortably! Clean and comfortable. The only thing you should know this villa is a few mile from Coco Beach Central but the roads in the area aren’t that great so you’ll need to arrange transportation and they’re really aren’t a lot of options other than advance arrangement with a tour guide or taxi. I wouldn’t recommend renting a vehicle because of the liability issues. If you’re not familiar with the driving culture, I would say arrange transportation. This place is 5 star! I would definitely recommend. Thank you Alvin for your assistance with connecting me with Daniel and Ariel!

I’m reluctant to share because Alvin and his home are such a special gem! From beginning to end we had the most amazing experience here- the condo was spotless upon arrival and had all of the amenities you could need and more. Alvin and the team went above and beyond from the start, whether it was bringing loungers to the beach, arranging any excursions, transport, rental car, or dropping off paddleboards and snorkeling gear right to the doorstep. The condo is stocked with floaties, beach gear, sand toys, beach towels, cooler. The beach, the views, the pool, the home- everything was more than we could’ve hoped for! We felt very secure throughout our stay, with staff providing additional security throughout the complex around the clock. Restaurant was next door, great food, though pricy. We’d highly recommend the beachside massages! Our stay was truly perfect, and we can’t wait to come back!

this is a beautiful place right on the beach. I had very high expectations and this place exceeded them. fell asleep listening to the waves and woke to the birds singing. having the pool right nextdoor was extremely convenient without any pool noise coming into the deck. Alvin was very quick to respond and had many recommendations of activities to do and places to eat

This place is absolutely beautiful! This villa is right next to the pool and beach and was perfect for us. The pool bar/restaurant staff were amazing and it was a very quiet, calm, and peaceful environment. The villa was fully stocked with all that we needed and the host helped us arrange transportation from the airport and to the grocery store which was very helpful. 10/10 recommend this place!

Our family of five thoroughly enjoyed our time at Bahia Pez Vela, Villa 10. The house is lovely and the view breathtaking. We spent a lot of time on the porch enjoying the view. We really enjoyed having the beautiful black sand beach just a few steps away, as well as the pool and restaurant right next door. The restaurant on the property Soluna Beach Bistro has many delicious options and the staff is very welcoming and helpful. We also enjoyed checking out some of the restaurants in Ocotal Beach, which is just 5 minutes away. Don't miss out on Father Rooster's. Take advantage of the the wonderful massage and facials available at the resort, which we were able to get on our patio. Also, make sure to enjoy the kayak rentals and you can also have jet ski rentals brought to the private beach. Thank you Alvin and we look forward to visiting again someday. I long to be back there already!

We had an amazing stay at Villa 10 at Bahia Pez Vela. We had high expectations based on the pictures and prior reviews and our stay still exceeded our expectations. This is definitely up there with the best AirBNB's we have ever stayed at. The unit was very clean and the location within the resort is perfect because you can access the beach, the beautiful pool area, and the on-site bar and restaurant in seconds. You will have a private patio with shade and a great seating area that overlooks the ocean, and the main bedroom has a balcony overlooking the ocean. Everyone at the resort was very helpful and accommodating. We rented snorkeling equipment one day from the office and were surprised at how good the snorkeling was at the resort beach. Alvin's communication was excellent from beginning to end. Book it! You will not be disappointed.
