Let me preface by saying I live in a small rural mountain town in Colorado. I’m not a nitpicky kind of person however, the house was not very clean overall for a vacation rental. Floors were unswept and clearly had not been washed in a while. The quality of bed linens were very poor and ill fitting along with the bathroom towels being old and stiff. We could not occupy the second king bedroom downstairs due to an overpowering musty smell and the vent fan did little to help. Water pressure was very minimal even after cleaning the shower heads myself. The shower drains were slow to drain. We did enjoy the warmth of the pool and the view of the ocean from the patio!

We appreciate you staying with us and will continue working to maintain high standards

Tiffany was our appointed person for the property and she couldn’t done a better job. She answered all our questions and gave us all the information needed She made herself always available which is remarkable considering we reached out at different times of the day outside office hours. We had an amazing experience altogether during our vacation Thank you

Very comfortable spot for friends, couples or a family. Every bedroom had its own bathroom and air conditioning. Beautiful view and felt secluded, but everything was just a 5 min drive away. It's true that if you left any food out in the kitchen the ants would come around, but we learned after the first time and just cleaned up right after cooking/eating. The host was very responsive making check in and out easy.

The neighborhood and view are nice, but there is nothing “luxury” about this place, as is advertised in the listing. The house is pretty run down and in need of updating. Broken patio furniture and lights that don’t work. For drinking glasses, you have your choice of three beer mugs, and five or six plastic glasses. Just overall it was not as advertised, and definitely not luxurious. And beware of very restrictive rules for checking in. It’s all about their schedule…

We had a fantastic stay at this rental home in Costa Rica! The location was excellent, offering breathtaking views of the ocean that we never tired of. The highlight of our stay was definitely the amazing pool, which was the perfect place to relax and enjoy the scenery. The outdoor showers added a luxurious touch and made us feel even closer to the natural surroundings. The host was incredibly responsive, quickly addressing a minor internet issue and arranging for the pool to be cleaned during our stay. It was reassuring to know help was just a message away. The only downside was dealing with some ants in the house, which took a bit of effort to manage. However, this seems to be a common issue in tropical locations, and it didn’t take away from the overall experience. Overall, this home offered a peaceful and stunning retreat. If you’re looking.

Moshe’s place is incredible! Place is as described and what it looks like in pictures. The rooms are nice and cozy. The sunset views are amazing! There is a lot of privacy which was also great. The area was quiet and relaxing being away from the main town. I recommend renting a golf cart (or quad/car) so you can get around quicker as it is a quick 5-10 minute drive into Playa Guiones. Tiffany was very responsive and helpful in answering any questions I had throughout the my stay. I recommend staying here and would love to come back in the future!

Wonderful villa with amazing views. We made sure we were at the villa for sunsets - incredibly beautiful. We loved everything about the villa (comfortable beds, terrific coffee maker, spacious, lovely veranda) and the location (quiet but close enough to everything). Tiffany was a fantastic host. Would most certainly stay here again.

Amazing view, nice pool, host was very responsive

A perfect mix of being close to things while also being pretty private and having a fantastic view of the Pacific. We had a really great time. Tiffany was very responsive and showed a lot of patience with some dumb questions I had. (I'll add that we didn't use the lower apartment, so I can't comment on what that's like.)

Moshe’s home was beautiful and accommodated our group. We loved the pool and enjoyed the sunsets every night. We felt safe, comfortable, and we were able to fully relax. We would absolutely stay at Villa Gull Wing again.

This house was in the ideal location just off the beach roads of Nosara.  It was set high on a hill away from the road.  It was very private and had awesome ocean views.  We went out exploring the area every morning and then enjoyed the beautiful pool in the afternoon.  Tiffany, the host, was extremely helpful with restaurant recommendation, etc.  She was very responsive and great to work with thru the whole reservation process.   Enjoyed our stay in this house as well as the  overall Nosara area.

This place is spectacular! Gorgeous house with an even more impressive view to match! Moshe was super attentive and typically responded to my queries within minutes. Can’t recommend this place enough.

Thank you Justin.  It was our pleasure meeting and hosting your family!

We had a terrific week in this house! The view was lovely every evening, and we ate outside by the pool a few nights. Saw coati and iguanas, and heard the monkeys. Beds were comfortable and kitchen well stocked. Would definitely recommend a car for this location. (We used Limo Dan.) The pool was clean and water temp perfect. Would definitely recommend.

Amazing home with a ocean view and super close to the markets, shopping and restaurants. Will def return again. Thank you

Absolutely MESMERIZING view! We spent most of our time outside on the patio with our eyes toward the ocean. Not only was the view of the water and the sunset spectacular, but the setting was fairly private with lush greenery all around. We brought a pair of binoculars so we could see the birds, the surfers, boats and even whales. The pool was fantastic with plenty of outdoor furniture. In the evenings, we ate dinner on the huge wood patio table after watching the sun go down. If you be love sunsets, the view here can’t be beat! The owners were very responsive to email. Hans responded almost immediately when I had a question upon our arrival. Then, on our second day we noticed some pooling water under the sink and Hans scheduled a plumber to check it out right away. We were able to very easily fit two families of seven people total. Each adult couple had their own bedroom and bathroom, while our three teen girls enjoyed sharing the third bedroom, which is like a separate apartment with its own entrances. As we were told ahead of time, the third bedroom (that is attached but separate from the rest of the house) had a bit of a musty smell, but fresh air and the dehumidifier helped. After two weeks in Costa Rica, staying in multiple places, it was apparent that moisture issues are certainly not unusual, but someone with asthma or sensitivity to mildew may want to stay in one of the other two bedrooms. We had read that roads in Nosara could be a bit rough, but they were better than I expected. The main road through town is paved and the road up the long steep hill to the house is also paved and was easy driving. Some of the roads leading into Nosara were a bit bumpy and slow. We were glad we rented an SUV rather than a smaller car. Overall, it was a great stay in an amazingly relaxing setting with a view that cannot be beat!

Great views, great pool, perfect size house for six people

this is a gorgeous home with a million dollar view and excellent hosts - don't hesitate

Location Location Location! This house is in a perfect location to enjoy the best of Nosara beach. We loved the gorgeous views of the ocean and jungle from this house. The property is very nice and private but with easy access. I loved how much nice outdoor furniture there was and we used all the loungers and tables outside. The pool was very nice as well. The beds were super comfy with nice linens. We saw a lot of wildlife at the house including coati, iguanas and one morning the mango tree above the front door had five monkeys in it! Hans was super responsive to any need or question! Thanks for a lovely stay!

The overall experience with them was bad. We rented the house because it was listed as pet friendly. On the second day of our trip the owner came to the house to check on us. First of all she didn’t say good morning or anything. She was super rude. Then when she saw the dog she kicked it from the front door to the other side of the living room. I was so shocked! She started yelling at us that she was the owner like we didn’t know that, and that it was her house and she decided that dogs were not allowed, however we already paid $1500 for our trip and it was their mistake for listing the house with pets allowed. We never got a proper apology and they never picked up the phone after that. The only good and luxurious thing about the house it’s the view! ! You will pay a lot of money for a not luxury house!

When this Costa Rican client made their reservation request they did not disclose that they were bringing 2 dogs. When my wife went to the house and after they opened the door a very large dog jumped at her. The owner had to pull the dog away from her. Naturally not expecting this my wife was shocked and scared. The dogs destroyed a new flower bed, left muddy footprints on bedsheets which did not washout after 2 cycles. Muddy footprints were all over the pool area and concrete stairs around the house and needed pressure washing to remove. No dog feces were picked up. They refused to take any responsibility or apologized for being dishonest. Their argument was, that if your property is "pet friendly" they can bring any animals and any resulting problems are "our mistake" having this policy. We are dog owners ourselves but after this experience, unfortunately, we had to remove our pet-friendly policy from our listing.

A wonderful location, close to everything, and the hosts were responsive. I would caution that the property (especially the pool area) isn't suitable if you have small children unless you want to be constantly monitoring your little ones. That aside, breathtaking views and awesome facilities.

This is a gorgeous home! We are a family of five and we had plenty of room — our teenage daughter loved the third bedroom which is privately tucked away with its own entrance and bathroom. The pool was lovely, the sunset views were amazing, and the house is well equipped (washer/dryer, dishwasher, coffee maker, rice cooker, gas grill, crockpot...). We had family staying down the road and we were able to have them for dinner and comfortably cook for and seat 10 people (outside on the veranda by the pool). The drive to the beach is about 7 minutes and parking by the beach is easy. We rented boards at Coconut Harry’s right by the beach every day which meant no lugging boards back and forth from the house. We would highly recommend this lovely spot!

All, the pictures in the listing do NOT do this villa justice! It is simply a gorgeous space and the views! The views! The views!!! Chillaxing in that pool and watching the sun literally set into the ocean on the horizon from the pool that high up the hill was the highlight of most of my days there. The communication with Sir Hans was impeccable, he promptly responded to all of my concerns. The main house has two bedrooms, there is a third "guest apartment" with one bedroom on a lower level that I did not use. You will see colorful birds, and various small animals in the trees and bushes on the property rounds, which are very well maintained. However, BE WARNED, you DEFINITELY should rent a SUV type vehicle that has 4WD (doesn't have to be a large one) because the road system in Nosara is HORRIBLE! Unless you plan to have taxis and tuk-tuks take you everywhere, renting a "regular car" would not be prudent, you need the more durable suspension of an SUV. Nosara has multiple lovely restaurants, Sir Hans recommended some nice ones. La Luna (the only fancy, true 'on the beach' restaurant was my fav, ate there twice). But you definitely should call ahead and make reservations, because it is the premier "sunset watching" spot in the area from what I've observed. Also, at the main road sign turnoff for "Nosara Escape" when you go down that VERY BUMPY unpaved road, there are a host of nice restaurants and bars to choose from, absolutely the "nightlife central" strip for Nosara. Oh, and did I mention the sunsets? :-) Enjoy!!!

Thank you for the nice review. Just to inform our future guests, the roads in Nosara have been graded again. They were in bad shape because of the unusually heavy rains in November. The main road is finally going to be paved after promises from the government for many years. The street up to the hill to our property was recently paved and privately funded by our "Las Huacas" home association.

Hans was quick to respond to my needs and a great communicator!The place was absolutely lovely! Incredible views and outside spaces. The master bed and pillow were soooo comfy. Something you don’t always experience in CR!

Truly a 5 Star experience at this stunningly beautiful home! A million dollar view, warm pool and sounds of  wildlife made our stay relaxing and  memorable. We've stayed in the Playa Guiones/Playa Pelada area several times and this was our favorite rental by far. Truly the pictures do not do this property justice. Very clean and fresh, exactly as advertised. We can't wait to go back!

Great house and amazing view! Honestly, the pictures do not do it justice. I have been to Nosara many times before over the years and I've always seen their listing and I definitely wished I had stayed in sooner! An amazing spot for sure.

My friends and I stayed here for a week and this was the perfect location! The house had a great location with a beautiful view. You need a car to get to and from the house to town and a 4x4 is recommended. The house had everything we needed for the week! I would definitely recommend.

It is a beautiful house, very cozy, with a pool and an incredible view. You have contact with nature; the place is very quiet, as it is far from the center. It is an excellent place to change routine and be able to rest.

Es una hermosa casa, muy acogedora, con piscina y una vista increíble. Se tiene contacto con la naturaleza; el lugar es muy tranquilo, ya que está alejada del centro. Es un excelente lugar para cambiar de la rutina y poder descansar.

Amazing! We enjoyed our stay at Villa Gull-wing and highly recommend it. ¡Pura Vida!

Beautiful house with outstanding ocean view! The house is very comfortable, kitchen super well equipped, marvelous terrace to entertain, read, rest... You feel very safe as the house has an alarm system and the beds are comfortable. A/C are very silent and WiFi works well. We would return back anytime.

Great house and a great location in Las Huacas... highly recommended

Our group had to most amazing time at Villa Gullwing! Pictures do not do this place justice. An incredible view to check out the surf and sunset with plenty of seating on the patio. Everything you need to cook plus a grill and dishwasher. The beds are very comfortable. Definitely need transportation, but  it is a very quick drive to the beach. Easy ckeck-in, Hans responded right away with any questions, and the security guards are a plus. Perfect for a group that likes to split their time between the beach and the pool. Beautiful home and great hosts!

Loved the beautiful view and relaxing by the pool. Quiet with great ambiance and nature surrounding. Came home to monkeys in the driveway, Coati and beautiful birds all around!

The view is spectacular and since the house is well above the main road, it does not suffer from the dust and noise below, a real plus.  There are nearby neighbors however since the house faces mostly away from them, any noise is not bothersome.  The pool was unusable due to the leaves in it from high winds.  The AC works beautifully as does the very fast (for Costa Rica) wifi.  We did not need AC at night, just the late afternoons.  The bedrooms are all separate which affords luxurious privacy and this makes it best for adults rather than a family with small children.  Bring your own soap and hair dryers as neither were furnished.  There is no one to "meet and greet" because the owners live in the US so it was a bit difficult at first to figure out all the gates and systems, but manageable.  It was a real plus that we were permitted to have our working dogs in the home. and would recommend this home if you do not want to be on the beach . We preferred this location to the beach.

The road to the place might be bumpy, but once you're there it's smooth as hell. Amazing view of the ocean from the pool, AC in every room, great place to relax after spending a day in Nosara. Definitely get an AWD car especially if you come during rainy season,  definitely be prepped for all manners of bugs at night if lights are on, and welcome the coati just grabbing some fruit from the tree above the pool. Surfers are tiny dots on the ocean, and the sunset can be spectacular. 

We couldn't have made a better choice in place to stay in Nosara.  The house is spacious, beautiful and a perfect floorplan for socializing.  Gorgeous sunsets every evening and all the amenities of home.  We felt secure and private with gated grounds and full time neighborhood security.  Convenient to all the local fun in Nosara .  Mini split air units in every room made it to where everyone could independently control their spaces.  Highly recommend.

This is a great place to stay for the Nosara area! Great views, patio and pool, and security. Loved the layout of the house because it has essentially two master bedrooms,one on each end of the house. Hans was very responsive to questions and helpful. I would highly recommend staying at Villa Gullwing!
