Luxury ocean view villa/golf course - Villas for Rent in Hone Creek, Limon, Costa Rica

This house is simply amazing! So beautiful and so comfortable! Located very close to Cahuita and Puerto Viejo. The cook was fabulous and the rest of the staff very attentive and accommodating! We loved our stay and did not want to leave!

Everything was excellent. The house is beautiful.

Joya De Costa is definitely a luxury stay with everything you could possibly need. This was a dream come true, for our family get together. There was 12 of us... ages 10 months to 80 years old. Everything about the buildings, the furniture, the pool area and landscape was immaculate. Mihaela, always responded quickly to any question, and was very helpful with suggestions. Emilio, the property manager, greeted us at the bottom of the long gravel driveway and familiarized us with everything. The full time cook was wonderful and made us very tasty meals, and along with the housekeeper, keep the place spotless. They really made our stay special. We do not golf, but did create a fun putting game. Monkeys, Toucans, and Sloths hang out in the trees surrounding the house . The bedrooms are spacious, and quiet and I appreciated that they are in a separate building from the kitchen, living room dinning room and main patio. Definitely, a 4x4 or very good AWD vehicle is needed. So special!

Our group loved this villa! The property is beautiful with views of the ocean and jungle. The pool and golfing was so much fun. We saw Sloths, Green Parrots and Yellow-throated toucans from our room and around the property. There is a small dog onsite, she is the sweetest and was a big star of the vacation. The chef made fantastic food every day and the staff kept the place spotless. We will definitely come back on our next trip to Costa Rica!!

This place was amazing. Such a great setting. We saw toucans, sloths, howler monkeys, dart frogs, and many other types of birds. The staff was perfect. The house came with a chef and she was divine. The golf was very difficult! You do really need a 4x4 but it’s worth the fantastic view and wildlife. We would always choose to stay here when in the Puerto Viejo area.

The views, the accommodations and the staff were amazing! It was worth the long drive from the airport to stay in this 6 bedroom Airbnb. It was like our own all inclusive resort. A very relaxing environment, as long as you can stand the sound of howler monkeys in the distance, which made it feel otherworldly. If you want to use the very difficult golf course be prepared to loose balls. There are clubs to use but it would’ve been much easier with our own. The hosts were very helpful and so was the staff. The hosts speak English but staff mostly Spanish. It was fun trying to communicate. All in all, the 11 of us had one of the best weeks of our lives vacationing at Joya de Costa Rica!

I don't recommend going here. The host spoke with me 12 hours before I was unable to check in early. And I'm 3 hours away from checking in, I'll cancel the reservation. I leave myself with no option of any other place I had to return to San Jose because of him because of me

No recomiendo ir acá. El anfitrión habló conmigo 12 horas antes que no podía hacer early check in. Y faltando 3 horas para hacer el check in me cancelo la reservación. Me dejo sin opción de ningún otro lugar. Tuve que devolverme a San José por su culpa

What a wonderful property and experience. Mihaela was a great host—flexible, timely, responsive! Ours was a last minute booking, and we felt taken care of the whole time. While the drive to the property does require 4WD, once you’re there you’re never going to want to leave! Animals of all kinds everywhere: toucans, sloths, monkeys, frogs, and more! Wonderful fresh fruit on the property: limes/lemons, coconuts, mangoes, bananas! Every day felt like we discovered something new! The pool, however, was the best feature. The water was warm and always clean (daily caretaking of the pool). It’s PERFECT for kids, given that it has zero depth entry and lots of areas for kids to stand in the water. Special shout-out to Rafael and Ampados (sorry if we butchered the spelling), as they were especially helpful on-site with managing the property, cleaning, setting up/down, etc). We really liked them.

The property in general is really spectacular, the rooms in particular are very comfortable and all the areas  have everything you need to feel at home, the environment is unique and beautiful, the  description in one word would be SPECTACULAR.

La propiedad en general es realmente espectacular, las habitaciones en particular muy cómodas y todas las áreas  tienen todo lo necesario para sentirse en casa, el entorno es único y bello, la  descripción en una palabra sería ESPECTACULAR.

From the property to the WONDERFUL STAFF, this home was simply amazing, and a perfect venue for a group that wants to be private but still close enough to enjoy the local towns and beaches. We came as a group of 9 for my wife’s 40th birthday and we were all blown away from the first second we drove up the extensive driveway (which btw you will more than likely need 4x4 to get up). As good as it looks in the listing photos rest assured it is somehow better in real life. We saw an extensive amount of wildlife including monkeys, tropical birds, and sloths right at the property. With that being said, please note that you are literally in the jungle/rainforest, so you will also find an extensive amount of bugs and insects throughout your stay, so keep that in mind if someone is deathly afraid of such things. Overall, we couldn’t have been happier, and feel blessed to have been accepted and able to experience this home.

Amazing stay, one of our best air Bnb experiences ever. Host went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our time. Could not recommend more!

The most important thing I can share is that we enjoyed our stay and would absolutely return. This is a great property with a great support team. So, my comments are provided for your preparation if you choose this location, which I strongely encourage you to do! 1. In order to get to the location from the main road, you will need a 4 wheel drive vehicle. There is a very very steep private road (paved and unpaved) that leads to the property. We had a SUV without 4 wheel drive and we could not get up the hill. We had to leave the car in the care of a neighboring property down the hill and had to get shuttled back and forth to our car by the house staff. That was not ideal. To avoid this, GET A CAR WITH FOUR WHEEL DRIVE! It's a breeze if you have the right vehicle. 2. There are six bedrooms - only three have air conditioning. If this is important to you...consider this a heads up. 3. Privacy is challenging. The privacy blinds/shades on the windows do not provide privacy during the day time at all - you can see directly through them. At night, if you have the lights on you might as well keep the shades open because you can see right through them. So, using the bathroom, bathing, and getting dressed can be an adventure if you're in a group. Depending on your room, if they walk by or decide to go for a swim as you're getting dressed you could be on full display. So, be prepared to shower and/or get dressed in the dark!, which is what some of us did. Although each room may have its unique challenge (some more than others), we were able to successfully manage. Overall, the final sentiment is we liked the place and would return. If asked by friends I'd strongly encourage them to stay here. So, despite the above, I definitley encourage you to do so too! The good surpasses any drawbacks.

When we first saw this property online we thought it was too good to be true. Once we arrived we immediately felt like it exceeded our greatest expectations. The entire staff and owner went above and beyond to accommodate us and make our stay enjoyable. The house was gorgeous and the views were amazing. Any photo of this place doesn’t do it justice. It is obviously that the owner has spared no expense to deliver an over the top experience. We will definitely return!

Amazing property, staff, and amenities. I am dreaming of returning one day. It was truly stunning. Rafa and the team were outstanding. We visited another luxury home on the Nicoya peninsula that while gorgeous, didn’t hold a candle to our experience here. I could tell the staff on-site were paid well, respected, and taken care of. We saw tons of wildlife from the house and even had a sloth living in a tree right outside our window! We were a group of 8 adults and 2 children and the house fit our needs perfectly. We felt completely safe and at ease the entire time. What a truly amazing experience!

I've been coming to the Puerto Viejo area for 25 years and this is the best place I have found...by far. The cabins are immaculate and the service is 5 star from start to finish. Perfect place for small or large group and so close to the beaches and restaurants of Puerto Viejo. My family and I will continue coming to Joya de Costa Rica every opportunity we get. Such good vibes and I can't recommend any more highly! Jim B

Absolutely loved our stay here. Was looking for a place to work remotely while still enjoying the area and this was perfect. The staff are also wonderfully kind and accommodating. The grounds are stunning, you are in the middle of nature, the interiors are beautiful, and the pool is refreshing at all times. Being perched on top of the mountain it’s worth the ride up the hill as the views are breathless and the privacy is appreciated.

First off, I cannot say enough positive things about our host, Emilio. Started before even arriving, he would answer ALL my questions promptly. While we were there, he was a great accommodating our needs and great host recommending best places and restaurants. Also, Rafael who was on the property in case we needed anything was of great help. Fantastic property everything was exceptionally clean and comfortable. The pool was fantastic and relaxing. This is a place we would all stay again.

This place is really special. I stayed there for almost all of January and had a group of about 10 at most with people coming and going over the month. Everyone is lovely and I was impressed with how many staff there are attending to the house/grounds and guests. The grounds are really exceptional. You are at the top of a hill, on a compound literally in the middle of the jungle. Monkeys dangle from trees above you on the regular and everywhere you look, you see deep forests and ocean in the backdrop. It was the perfect place for us to get away from it all and get some relaxation. Beautiful beaches nearby and Puerto Viejo is a great little beach town. Great value for money. The pictures do not do it justice. It is a very high-end property.

The house is spectacular! Highly recommend, we came as a family of 10. The house itself has all amenities the view is great and the house in general is spacious. Its about 15 minute drive to down town Puerto Viejo. I will certainly be back!

Beauty, peace, nature and comfort... If that’s what you’re looking for then Joya is the place for you! The property has been exceptionally well designed, beautifully constructed and impeccably maintained. The photos are too humble, this is simply the best rental we’ve ever had. For my wife and I, where we stay is incredible important and is the foundational to our travel. We love exploring new countries and locations but want to look forward to coming “home”. We are private people who need quite time to unwind and that is exactly what you will get here if that is what you need. Or bring a group of 12 and share the experience with everyone! The staff is excellent; Empara and Wilbur are a great team taking care of the meals and property and Rafael is very friendly and confident which is comforting. The manager, Emilio, is very knowledgeable and takes obvious pride when he shows you around (he is a retired architect that designed and generated the development). The owner, Mihaela, was extremely prompt and reliable to deal with. I wish all hosts where as gracious as she is. We love the ocean, mountains and jungle. The jungle has a way of getting into everything but somehow Joya maintains all the comforts of home while allowing the exotic jungle to surround you! The property has an excellent mix of open sunny area and shaded breezy spaces when you need a break from the sun. The canopy of trees above and below you is an amazing bird watching place. My wife checked dozens of birds off her list here, including a group of 5 toucans and multiple green parrot sightings. The lizards and frogs are very entertaining at night, we literally watched them for hours. We saw a few howlers, but you can’t miss their presence. If you’re a light sleeper bring ear plugs as you’ll likely sleep with the doors open and the jungle noises are constant! Don’t be surprised if you can’t leave the shower as the views are amazing! Obviously it’s an executive experience but you only live once and we all deserve to treat ourselves. If you come to Costa Rica/Talamanca area you are missing out if you don’t stay at Joya! I can’t finish without saying that I’ll miss Pelussa... we always miss our pups when we are on vacation and it’s so nice to have one around. She is a real sweetheart :)

Amazing place for our group of 12. The property is beautiful, the pool a favorite of everyone. The staff is lovely and Emilio was a great help to all of us. We will definitely stay here again if we come back to Costa Rica!

I wish there was an option to give more than 5 stars! We arrived pretty late at night so didn’t get to enjoy the scenery until the next morning but when we woke up, it was to a 180 degree ocean and jungle view from the bed, we knew we were in paradise! Choose from a bath or shower in the master suites and both have open window settings for the views and sounds or the jungle and ocean! It was amazing. You can hear the orchestra of monkeys and toucans daily while drinking your morning coffee or relaxing in the salt water pool! While playing golf on their private 9 hole course make sure to look up in the trees for sloths and howler monkeys. If you don’t play golf, no worries, you can walk along many jungle trails where you can see tree frogs, monkeys, sloths, iguanas and other Costa Rican wildlife. Mihaela was amazing! Super helpful and very communicable! Any questions I had, she had answers to, quickly. She also gave us a reference to an incredible massage therapist! The Joya staff was also super helpful and friendly! Rafael and Amparo were great and made us feel right at home from the beginning! I will 100% be coming back and will ONLY be staying at their place when we do! I recommend this place for anyone is in the area!

We had an excellent time at Joya De Costa Rica. There were 12 of us there, and everyone was very impressed with the accommodations. I'd highly recommend it!

The photos on AirBNB really do NOT do this stellar property justice. What an extraordinary location and extremely beautiful and well maintained property! The communication was excellent, the vibe was excellent, and the local contacts and the owner gave us excellent tips and really helped keep our trip smooth. Joya staff went above and beyond with helping coordinate with rental car companies, adventure tour pickups, etc. Everyone in my group of 8 (of hard to please CEO/business owners) was pleasantly surprised. Would love to go back and stay at Joya next year!

This is THE most jaw-dropping property I have ever stayed at. I have traveled all over North America, Asia, Africa, and Europe and this villa was absolutely stunning. There are 6 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms at this property, but let me speak of the spaces my boyfriend and I enjoyed. The master bedroom was immense, with a sitting area, high ceilings, a gorgeous massive bathroom with panoramic jungle and ocean views, a big comfy 4-poster bed, and two private verandas. A few steps away, the pool was a perfect spot to soak up the sun with a beer in hand and gaze at the ocean through the monkey dotted trees. A few more steps away, the dining area housed a huge kitchen, equipped with everything needed to prepare gourmet meals (which we did!). There is your choice of a double chandeliered indoor dining space for for at least two families, a covered outdoor dining gazebo that's just as big, or a more casual patio with soft couches and chairs. The living room showcased a massive big screen TV and numerous oversized couches (that looked more like beds). Did I mention that this property includes an actual 9-hole golf course that's for the sole use of its occupants? Can you say #extra in the best way possible?? Everywhere you look are perfectly manicured grounds, tastefully exotic decor, and towering jungle. The ocean view is so pretty it looks like an IKEA poster. The staff here are lovely, especially Rafael, with whom we had the most contact. He was super helpful with every little detail and was adoringly enthusiastic about showcasing the surrounding critters that literally popped up everywhere; like we were staying inside a private Costa Rican wildlife conservatory. From booking, to check in, to indulging in our lavish villa, to check out--the entire experience was above and beyond. The next time I stay here (and there will be a next time), I vow to bring my friends and family so that they can experience the same pleasures that we did.

Honestly there are not enough words to describe how breathtaking this location & house is. My family and I spent a week at this beautiful property, and everything from security, cooks and five star hospitality was given to us throughout our stay. These pictures do not even do justice to the views you have from every window, and of course the pool/central outdoor area. The house is set up so perfect for large families/groups, the kitchen and living room are one part of the house and the bedrooms are sectioned of across from that area. The entire living space is so functional and enjoyable, we couldn't have chose a better place to spend Christmas. The details throughout the house show the thought that went into building the place and every area outlooks the rainforest. Waking up to the sound of monkeys and other wildlife is one thing you will not find at very many spots. Thank you for opening up your beautiful home, we will be back for sure. 

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE! The home is set in the mountains outside of Puerto Viejo and is absolutely sensational, stylish, modern and spacious. It's pure perfection with location and stunning views. The fantastic staff completed this special event (We hosted our families here for our beach wedding). The place is truly amazing and pictures don't even begin to do it justice. The house manager reached out throughout our stay to make sure all was going well. It was truly a pleasure staying and we would definitely like to stay again in the future.  We strongly recommend this BEAUTIFUL and AMAZING home!!
