Casa Capung - Rainforest Villa w/ Pool & OceanView - Villas for Rent in Savegre, Puntarenas Province, Costa Rica

We spent a week at Casa Capung as a family and everything was absolutely perfect! The villa is exceptionally comfortable, spotless, and fully equipped with everything you could possibly need. The pool, views, and peaceful setting made our stay unforgettable. We would love to come back and highly recommend it to anyone!

Beautiful house in a great location.  Great Airbnb!  Thank you for hosting us!

The place is very nice and the house is very cozy. Access is only by 4x4, but it's worth it because it's so nice, and the house is very well maintained. Mar's service and welcome were excellent!

El lugar es muy bonito y la casa muy acogedora, acceso únicamente para 4x4 pero vale la pena lo bonito que es y la casa está muy bien mantenida. La atención y el recibimiento de parte de Mar fue excelente!

Thank you very much for such a wonderful review! We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the beauty and warmth of the house. The 4x4 ride is definitely part of the adventure to get to our little piece of paradise, and we love to know that you felt it was totally worth it.

a ton of amenities, included coffee and tea, washer and dryer, toaster options, crockpot for large meals, very spacious and great for families. the pool is very nice and the water was perfect, very cute night lights inside the pool. just don’t use the shower by the pool unless you are dressed because there are surveillance cameras around the pool! overall, very beautiful.

Pros: Amazing view. Great value. Best fridge in Costa Rica which is important for buying groceries. Communication was excellent!! Concierge so helpful. The master bed was very comfortable. Cons: couch and chairs a bit spartan and the amazing view a bit overgrown. Definitely need 4x4!

The house is beautiful! This place is a little ways from the airport so it is a drive. We arrived while the sun was going down and it was raining so it was pretty difficult to locate at first then we couldn’t find the lock box. The view is amazing and we saw so much wildlife while there.

The house felt smaller in person, especially the bedrooms and indoor bathroom. The pool is small, and because of the plants around it you can't really see the view while you're in the pool. The view is still nice, just not quite as open as we were expecting since the beach and mountain views are blocked by plants. If you're hoping for sunset views, there is no clear view. The primary bath is completely outside - fine except for the ants and bees. The AC went out on our first night, which made the guest bedroom very hot. Maintenance fixed the AC the next day. The remote for the gate didn't work - we had to use the keypad. The hand sprayer in the primary bath broke. The house also leaked during heavy rain, and some of the doors don't seal properly, so there is gapping or difficulty shutting them. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and thought the house was beautiful. It just didn't quite live up to our expectations for the price, mainly because of the size, view, and a few maintenance issues.

Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback, and we are glad to hear that you ultimately found the home beautiful and enjoyed your stay. We take your comments very seriously as they help us maintain the high standards our guests expect. Because our villa is nestled in a lush, tropical jungle environment, dense plant growth is a natural part of the scenery. We love that it provides incredible privacy, but we appreciate your feedback regarding the views and sunsets, and we will certainly evaluate our seasonal landscaping to ensure the best balance between privacy and openness. Being in the jungle also means encountering local wildlife, though we always strive to keep bugs to an absolute minimum, even in our popular outdoor bathroom spaces. We apologize sincerely for the unexpected maintenance hiccups you experienced during your stay. We are glad our team was able to get the AC up and running for you the very next day. We always want our guests to feel they received exceptional value for their experience, and we truly appreciate your constructive insights.

Casa Capung was one of the most memorable places we’ve stayed. Every morning started with coffee overlooking the jungle canopy, listening to the howler monkeys and evenings ended with sunsets and the sounds of nature all around us. The villa is the perfect balance between luxury and adventure. The pool, outdoor living spaces, and panoramic views were incredible, and we found ourselves wanting to spend as much time at the property as we did exploring Costa Rica. The home was spotless, beautifully designed, well-equipped, and offered plenty of privacy while still being conveniently located for visiting nearby beaches, waterfalls, and local attractions. One thing guests should know is that getting to the villa is part of the adventure. The roads leading to the property are steep, so a true 4x4 vehicle is required. The hosts were fantastic and chefs breakfast was amazing as were the in home massage services. Shout out to Taylor for going above and beyond for our stay. Can’t wait to return!

This is the second time we’ve stayed at this home and we loved it again! Beautiful home. Immaculate. Responsive host. Couldn’t ask for a better experience. Thank you!!

This house is truly something very special! The pictures don’t do it justice, this space really is perfect.  Ryan and Kristen’s home was an absolutely perfect stay for the last week of our vacation. The property has everything you need/think that you may need. The kitchen is ginormous, outside shower/bathtub is the perfect way to relax after a day at the beach, and the bed in the master bedroom is so comfy. We saw so many different birds and lizards hanging out by the pool! Great location with tons of beaches within 15-20 minute drive. The drive up to the house is a little scary when it’s raining, but 100% worth it. We cannot recommend this property enough.

Amazing stay! This place is great and highly recommended. Fast replies and really great service.

The house is much more beautiful than what is shown in the photos, full of nice touches, comfortable, and well-equipped. Access definitely requires a 4x4, but that only makes the place and the view even more magical. I will 100% come back to this place.

La casa es mucho más hermosa de lo que muestran las fotografías, llena de detalles, cómoda y bien equipada. El acceso definitivamente requiere de 4x4 pero eso solo hace que el lugar y la vista sean más mágicos. 100% volveré a este lugar

We had a really great, relaxing time at this house. Waking up to the sounds of howler monkeys every day was so cool! The place was really beautiful and there were a lot of birds every morning.  The views of the ocean were incredible and the pool was fun for our kids.

It truly means so much to read this ✨ Your experience reflects the essence of what we strive to offer a place where comfort, nature, and tranquility come together effortlessly.

We had an unforgettable stay at Casa Capung! Aside from the view, pool and outdoor shower, the wildlife right in the yard was a highlight! Every morning we would wake up to different birds, howler monkeys, a friendly coati and even an agouti. The space was spotless and had everything we needed. We took our one year old on her first international trip and we were offered a high chair and pack and play for a Small extra fee- so helpful! So many great food options within 10-15 minutes from the Airbnb. Treat yourself to the best pina colada you’ve ever had at Scala, a resto just down the road . And in the morning, an espresso tonic from Fuego Coffee Roasters. You won’t regret your stay here! We can’t wait to come back.

This place is a gem. We never repeat vacations spots, much less stay at the same accommodations. But Casa Capung is worth the exception. We stayed last year and couldn’t wait to come back this year. Perfect for our family of four. Location is fantastic between Uvita and Dominical. The drive up is my husband’s favorite part, don’t let it deter you. We saw so many animals (toucan, agouti, coati, many other bird species I can’t name) right from the back porch. Please, get the chef to come to the casa one night (request this early, they were available only one night when we were there, we would have done it multiple nights if it had been possible).  It is such a special experience. You will not regret staying here.

This home was absolutely stunning! The views were spectacular and the jungle surrounding was lovely. We loved how private it felt, like having your own oasis! We came here just the two of us, but would love to bring our children next time as they would have loved it too. Especially the pool and the little grass area to play. The drive up the steep and bumpy road to the house was a bit unnerving the first few times you do it. But then it became part of the adventure and fun for us! It was worth the view. Thank you for having us!

Very helpful as we were stuck at home with Ice storm and they were very helpful and adjusted our stay

This property is even more beautiful than the pictures. Very private, beautiful view, clean and comfortable. The host is very responsive and proactive. We truly enjoyed our stay here and would stay again!

Very nice villa with top amenities. We can only recommend it.

Sehr schöne Villa mit Top Ausstattung. Können wir nur empfehlen.

Wonderful house positioned high in the mountainside overlooking Uvita's Whale Tail.  Beautiful local beaches (10min drive away) - we especially loved Dominicalito for evening longboard sessions and sunsets.  Kids loved tide pools!  House beautiful, clean with superb kitchen and pool.  Can't fault!

Loved this place. Perfect for us. Clean. Great communication.

Being at Ryan and Kristen's house was just amazing !!! The location makes it too quiet, a spectacular view, which made our stay very pleasant. We loved it and hope to return in the future 👏🏻

Estar en la casa de Ryan y Kristen sencillamente fue increíble !!! La ubicación la hace demasiado tranquila , una vista espectacular, lo cual hizo nuestra estadía muy placentera . Nos encantó y esperamos poder regresar en el futuro 👏🏻

Beautiful house with a great sea view, we recommend it!

Magnifique maison avec une superbe vue sur la mer on recommande !

Casa Capung far exceeded our expectations! 👏👏 Our family really enjoyed the beautiful view and spent most of our days by the plunge pool to stay cool. The master bathroom (outdoors) was incredible and the best place to have an evening bath. Kitchen was very well stocked and we had everything we needed. Just be aware - there are 2 ways from the main road to get to this villa. I highly recommend taking the road with Scala restaurant on it BUT if you take the way Google Maps sends you - have a blast! Just ensure you have 4x4 and your passengers take a Gravol 🤣 Pico Mar, the property management was extremely helpful with check in and responded quickly. Beaches are all very close by. We particularly liked Playa Hermosa - a good mix of tourists and locals all having a good time. Pura Vida! Thank you for making our stay in Costa Rica a memorable onen

We loved stay at your house - it was just what we had expected and really enjoyed being at the house.

Cristina was very responsive & took care of our needs with ease. Pictures does this home no justice, you will be more than satisfied to see in person.

There are two ramps up to the villa. Unfortunately, we read the message for this too late and therefore our journey was very adventurous 😁 but we had our fun. The place was clean and fully equipped. Very remote, quiet and private. You were awakened in the morning by the chirping of the birds and we surprisingly even had a coati in the garden in the morning. That was fantastic 🥰🙏🏼

Es gibt zwei Auffahrten zur Villa hoch. Die Nachricht hierfür haben wir leider zu spät gelesen und daher war unsere Anfahrt sehr abenteuerlich 😁 wir hatten jedoch unseren Spaß. Die Unterkunft war sauber und vollständig ausgestattet. Sehr abgelegen, ruhig und privat. Man wurde morgens vom Gezwitscher der Vögel geweckt und wir hatten überraschenderweise sogar ein Nasenbären am Morgen im Garten. Das war traumhaft 🥰🙏🏼

The house was easy to find. The unpaved road is well maintained, a little steep in some areas, but not an issue with a 4x4. The house itself generally looks like the pictures provided, but there‘s some wear and tear. The biggest disappointment was a permanent fence that obstructs the view (which was my main motivation to book this place) quite a bit. The kitchen is well equipped. I‘d recommend to take a shower outside when it rains or spend some time soaking in the warm bathtub.

Beautiful home! Beautifully decorated and immaculate. Felt right at home. Management company was super responsive and helpful. Road was steep but well maintained even in the rainy season. Nice restaurant just down the road. The view was stunning! Only part we didn’t like was a temporary fence that blocked the view a little from the pool. It’s just temporary as they are building next door and the house was so nice and clean that we didn’t mind really. The outdoor bathroom is amazing! We loved our stay! Thanks!

House was fantastic, excellent view. Plenty of towels and linen, kitchen utensils and equipment. Staff was great, communicated promptly. Be aware that the hill to the house very steep. My 4x4 rental barely had enough power to climb. There is a tarp along a fence that obstructs the view if your sitting down.

Thank you so much David. It was a truly pleasure to hosting you. Looking forward to welcome you back.!

Thank you so much! We’re happy to hear it lived up to your expectations. Hope to welcome you back again soon! 🌿✨

We really loved the place, the view, the house, all the details that make it beautiful! I hope we'll have the pleasure to come back.

Thank you so much for your lovely message! We're truly happy to hear that you enjoyed the house, the view, and all the little details that make it special. It would be a real pleasure to welcome you back anytime, our doors are always open for your return!

We had an amazing time at Casa Capung. It has an amazing view and it’s so comfortable. We loved our stay!

Thank you so much and Welcome back anytime Francieli. ✨

We had an amazing stay at Casa Capung! The location on the mountain overlooking the Pacific Ocean is ideal. The pool and outdoor area was perfect for relaxing after morning excursions. The house was well stocked with everything you would need for a vacation. The property management company was very responsive and helped us book a private tour of Manuel Antonio National Park. The king-size bed in the master bedroom was extremely comfortable, and the air conditioning throughout the house was strong, creating a relaxing environment. As others have stated, the drive up to the house from the main road is a bit of an adventure but nothing to worry about -- just a somewhat steep gravel/dirt road with potholes. It's actually a fun drive, although my pregnant wife would probably not agree, haha. I would definitely recommend Casa Capung to anyone who wants a relaxing, peaceful retreat in a great location between Dominical and Uvita.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear that you had such an amazing stay at Casa Capung. Thank you again for recommending Casa Capung. It was a pleasure to host you, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime!

We absolutely loved the house! The view was amazing , the privacy was great and the overall experience was very enjoyable. Pretty much everything we needed was provided. It was just as described and shown in the pictures. We feel like we got a great mix of luxury and an authentic Costa Rican experience. The ride to and from the airport was VERY long 😂 but even the road trip was a part of the experience. My only suggestion would be some sort of bug and insect relief or repellent for outdoor relaxation, especially in the master bathroom. It was hard taking advantage of such a beautiful design with it being totally exposed to the elements. The hosts were very helpful and responsive. They gave us suggestions on restaurants and other activities, as well as arranged and booked things for us, like a great couples massage for my Bookie’s birthday.

We’re grateful you embraced the journey as part of the adventure and hope to welcome you back for another memorable stay in the future!

Absolutely beautiful house up in the hills. Property management company they have managing the place is really great and very helpful. There was a significant storm that occurred that blocked the main road up to the house and they helped get us up to the house as it helps to know a bit about the roads which from the highway are very steep. AC works well which helps given how warm it can be and it was very quiet up at the house.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful words! We’re so happy to hear you enjoyed the house and that our team could assist during the storm situation. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime!

Thank you so much! I’m really glad you’re enjoying the view and the house.

Overall it was a lovely stay, though we had some issues. There was construction next door which wasn’t bad, but a big green fence obstructed the view a little and that was a reason I chose this location. Wish it was posted in photos. Then the hot water everywhere was not working because the breaker it was on kept tripping even after maintenance came. The host was very good at communicating so that was helpful, just some issues with those two things. And it is a beautiful place and the pool, kitchen and bathrooms were very fun and special. Overall I’m glad we stayed but there was some things they could improve

Thank you for your honest feedback and kind words. We’re really glad to hear you enjoyed the beauty of the home. At the same time, we truly appreciate you pointing out the things that could’ve made your stay even better. We're sorry about the temporary obstruction from the green fence. Thank you again for staying with us, and we’d love the opportunity to welcome you back in the future for an even smoother visit!

This house was perfect for our family of four! We loved the location as it was close to the town and beaches but also very quiet and peaceful. Highly recommend!

Thank you so much! We're so happy to hear the house was a perfect fit for your family. It means a lot to know you enjoyed the peaceful setting while still being close to town and the beaches. We'd love to welcome you back anytime! 🌿✨

The view was great despite a haze while we were there which is not typical according to the locals. Amazing kitchen and backsplash window into an orchid garden was a feature I have never seen in a home that I definitely want. Pool and grounds are great. It’s an adventure to get up the hill to the house, but I began to enjoy the drive by the end of our stay.

Thank you for your thoughtful message! We're so glad you enjoyed the views—even with the unusual haze—and that the kitchen and orchid garden window stood out to you. It's one of our favorite features too, so it's lovely to hear it made an impression! We'd love to welcome you back anytime you're up for another getaway.

Beautiful home! Excellent location for us. Check out the restaurant, Scala! (Right on the dirt road). I will say the property management company has some very strict rules, like you can’t hire your own private chef/ have any guests or services that they do not approve. I would have known this if I would have received their “things to know” email prior to 8 hours before our flights. So that was a little frustrating. Their recommendation/ only option was considerably more expensive . So we just had to cancel and didn’t do that part. Other than that hiccup they were extremely helpful and accommodating.

Lacie we are so sorry for the late email— there was actually a typo when the first email was sent, and it seems it didn’t go through properly. Thank you so much for your thoughtful feedback! We’re really happy to hear you loved the home and that the location worked well for you — and yes, Scala is such a great spot! Thanks again for your kind words and your honesty — and we’re glad to hear that, despite the hiccup, you felt supported during your stay.

We loved our stay ! The villa is lovely and the surroundings are very peaceful. We’ve enjoyed the food at the Scala restaurant nearby. Only things I’d improve is there’s only one lounge chair by the pool, and the camera pointing at the pool is kind of off-putting (although mentioned in the listing so we knew in advance tbf!). Maybe the hosting company could just point it away during the stay?

Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re thrilled to hear that you loved your stay and enjoyed the peaceful surroundings. Scala is a great choice for dining, we’re glad you had a chance to experience it! We truly appreciate your feedback. Regarding the camera, we understand your concern, and while it’s there just for security purposes, that for we mention it in the listing, so when clients request we point it away. Your input helps us improve, and we’d love to host you again in the future! Safe travels, and don’t hesitate to reach out if you ever wish to return. (:

Wow, what a beautiful place, I travel for for work and rent a lot of airbnbs this place and the level of service provided were really special made us sad to have to leave

It was a pleasure Matthew please come back soon.

There is so much to say about this beautiful home, that it would be hard to capture it all. I will just say the house is absolutely beautiful, with wonderful little details everywhere you look.The furniture was beautiful. The kitchen and bathrooms were so well stocked, you can just make yourself at home. We especially appreciated having the little things like coffee/filters, soap, shampoo, paper goods, and cooking oils and seasonings provided! It was nice to not have to spend $100 to stock a house. The owners have thought about everything you will need to enjoy your stay. We really loved the garden windows as the kitchen backsplash and the outdoor bathroom. The views were beautiful and the house was very private. We enjoyed bird watching from the pool deck, and heard many toucans calling, but didn’t see them. 😞 We love the area. Don’t miss La Parcela at 5 for monkeys! Fuego and Whale Tale breweries are our fav hangouts & Scala is fabulous and very close. Thank you for a wonderful stay

It makes us really happy to read your amazing experience in our beloved Casa Capung. Please come back soon, it was a pleasure to host you both.

Beautiful house and view. Love that the kitchen had everything you would need. And the management company and people were very professional and responsive to any questions or concerns we had. Would recommend this house.

We are so happy to hear you enjoy your staying with us Jane. Come back soon.

Beautiful home, had an issue come up but it was handled well.

Ryan and Kristen’s place was exactly what we were looking for! Perfectly nestled between Dominical and Uvita. Google maps took us the wrong way the first time but Jorge from the PM company was super helpful & patience with us! I would highly recommend this place if you are looking to unwind and enjoy a beautiful view of the “whale tail” beach in Marina Ballena!

This house is INCREDIBLE. This was our first trip to Costa Rica and wow is all that I can say. It is quite a drive from San Jose.  We knew that going in.  But when I tell you that it’s worth it, trust me! The view is breathtaking especially on clearer days.  We could see Whale’s Tail on the clear days from the bedroom as well as from the backyard and pool.  There are so many beautiful plants and birds. Don’t forget to rent or bring a 4x4 vehicle or else you’re probably not going to be able to get up to it.  We felt safe and secluded and we were able to rest so well while we were there.  PS-  if you get the chance to take a hot shower outside while it’s raining, literal heaven on earth. Ana and Miguel with Pico Mar were so helpful and proactive to help us with anything we needed including references for restaurants and excursions. They were even nice enough to bring me some fresh milk and creamer when I asked if there happened to be any in the house. Do it!  You’ll be happy that you did

It is HEAVENLY!! Where to begin? The design and architecture of the home is breathtaking and unique. Being in the home feels like you are away from everything and everyone else. The views are spectacular, yard and pool area private, and safe. Location was convenient and with our 4x4 we did not have a problem driving up the steep hills to get to our private villa. Even the kids were in love with the loft spaces and we enjoyed cooking delicious meals together in the open modern kitchen. Showering/bathing was like being in a spa. You’ll have to experience this organic space for yourself - there is nothing like it! We woke up every morning waiting for the sun to come up over the ocean and mountainscape - don’t miss this chance! Hosts are amazing and helped us book excursions. We did not want to leave and can’t wait to come back one day!

Muchas Gracias! Amigo por aca estaremos cuando quieran regresar! Con los brazos abiertos!

Really enjoyed the home, great views of the whales tail and had a fully equipped kitchen and all the necessities we needed. Management company was extremely responsive. The home also had an alarm which was a nice layer of security. Overall would recommend this home.

Kyle, Thank you so much for your kind words! For us means a lot. We hope to see you again!

An outstanding place that matches the reviews. Very clean and tidy! The assistance provided was excellent. We definitely recommend this home!

Thank you so much for your review Mr Brian! We hope to see you again in the near future!

Awesome property. An unforgettable family vacation.

Magnifique propriété. Des vacances inoubliables en famille.

Thank you so much for your comments and your review! Was a complete pleasure to meet you!!! See you in the near future!

This was the dreamiest place we’ve ever stayed at! The home was so clean, the bed was soo comfortable!! Had the best sleep here. Also, the outdoor shower is a must! I found any excuse to shower bc it was so perfect outside with the fresh air. Woke up to the most amazing views of the ocean! This entire place was designed to perfection, def worth returning to!

You are the best! Thank you so much for this kind words! This mean a lot for us and for our team! Casa Capung will be more than happy to have you back!

Perfect “home base” for our CR adventures for our family of four including two young daughters.  Incredible view, responsive and friendly host and we felt very safe/secure our entire stay.  Would highly recommend to anyone considering a stay in the Uvita/Domincal area!

Dear Rob! Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear that you had a great stay and enjoyed your time with us. Your kind words mean a lot to our team, and we’re delighted that we could meet your expectations. We look forward to welcoming you back on your next visit!

This place was amazing! The location was peaceful & quiet. House was fully stocked with everything you need. Communication w owners was amazing. Literally the perfect spot. Couldn’t have asked for a better place for vacation!

We hope we can see you next time!!!Thank you for your kind words! Means a lot for us!

This place has an amazing view of the beach and the forest/jungle.We enjoyed the best of both worlds by being in  nature but close enough to restaurants, the beach and entertainment. The outdoor master bathroom was amazing and the water pressure and water temperature was great. Ana, the host, was great. She recommended several things to do and helped to coordinate activities. She's a great communicator and helped to make our vacation enjoyable and memorable. The only concern during our stay was our privacy due to the camera that faced the pool and it extended to the main living space and possibly the kitchen. The vacant lot next to the property had traffic and the people could look up at us which made us conscious about security.

Hello Ebony! Thank you so much for taking the time to leave your review and share your feedback. We truly appreciate your comments, as they help us continuously improve and doing our best! As we mentioned is not showing the pool and also when someone is uncomfortable we send someone to move it! Thanks again and see you next time!

This house was absolutely beautiful with a breathe taking view of the marina ballena tail! It was family friendly and peaceful! Ana was super helpful and gave us lots of recommendation for place to visit! I definitely recommend casa capung and will definitely stay here again!❤️

This place is a gem and far more beautiful than advertised. I would be back in a heartbeat. Plus, Ana the concierge, was extraordinary and incredibly helpful in making our stay memorable.

It was an absolute gem up in the rainforest with short commute to access beach and adventure. We were impressed that it was even better than the pictures, house and view!

We can’t say enough about this beautiful paradise! It was more than what we expected! Ana was super helpful, welcomed us with a fresh local fruits, such a special touch! First time in Costa Rica and truly loved it and will be back! I don’t typically leave reviews but this was truly worth leaving a 5 star review! Everything about this house was amazing experience! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Thank you so much for coming and for this amazing review! We are more than grateful for our team! We hope to see you another time!

The house is just AMAZING! The whale's tail view is stunning. The accommodation is fully equipped, nothing is missing. For us it's a 10/10

La maison est juste INCROYABLE ! La vue sur la queue de la baleine est magnifique. Le logement est totalement équipé, rien ne manque. Pour nous c’est un 10/10

This house is beautiful and we especially loved the indoor/outdoor feel since the doors all opened up to the backyard and pool area. The outdoor bathroom is amazing! Kitchen was well stocked so we were able to cook dinner one night and hire a private chef another night. Note that various people from a property mgmt company will be in touch with you before and during your stay, not the hosts (they informed us the hosts sold the property). They were helpful with check in instructions as well as scheduling the chef.  However, they asked us a few times to share our location but we were uncomfortable doing so.

We’re so pleased you were able to enjoy our home, concierge services, and private chef - making it a fabulous stay for you! So there is no misunderstanding for future guests the home has not been sold. Also, our team works with guests who arrive to our jungle home at various times - making good communication very important for a smooth check in. Thank you for choosing to stay at Casa Capung, we hope you will come again soon!

We really enjoyed our stay at Casa Capung! The view of the Whale’s Tail was beautiful and we loved having the doors that open all the way for a nice breeze. The house had everything we needed and was very comfortable! The pool was a perfect size for my 2 kids. Ana and everyone at Pico Mar were lovely and we are so grateful that she was able to help arrange a last minute tour to Corcovado. The drive requires a 4x4 and is a little intense the first time but it gets easier. There is a great produce stand a couple kilometers away towards Uvita that was we stopped at several times to get fruit for smoothies, pick up eggs etc.

Beautiful little house up on the mountain overlooking the ocean. Well maintained and has everything you need. It was well worth the drive up, but you definitely need 4x4, we even had stopped to help other Airbnb guests who got stuck with a 2wd vehicle, so keep in mind when your booking. It was totally worth the drive up for the amazing view and peacefulness. We had a great stay

Stephanie so glad that you were able to enjoy the view and the house! Until the next time!!!

Very nice house for the price paid. Very steep climb to the house, so most likely you need an AWD car, although most likely an ordinary car will stop at the lowest speed, because the rise in places is probably at 30 degrees. I liked everything, thank you.

Дуже гарний будинок за сплачену ціну. Дуже крутий підйом до будинку, тому скоріше за все потрібне AWD авто, хоча скоріше за все і звичайне авто заїде на найнижчий швидкості, бо підйом місцями напевно градусів під 30. Все сподобалося, дякуємо.

Dear Ryan and Kristen. We had a wonderful time at your house. We loved the view, the interior, bathrooms and especially the pool. All the best Jörg & Monika

Stay here if you can! Absolutely wonderful home/area/experience. The house is a rare gem!

Thank you so much Ben for your review! Just let us know when you want to come back!!!

Our stay at Casa Capung was amazing. It is described exactly as it is. The pictures are also exactly what you see in person. It’s a great location for guests looking for some privacy and escape the heat. Being on the mountain, it has a nice breeze (at least when we went in February), and the view is breathtaking. We personally didn’t feel the road was terrible to navigate and thought it was worth it.

Stunning villa with amazing views of the National Park coast. The whole place was spotless and with great facilities, the outdoor en suite and bathtub in particular. Check in and communication with the management company was super easy throughout. We highly recommend Sibu cafe and Scala restaurant, which are a 2 minute down the road. Excellent food. The management company also helped us to arrange a private chef and a massage at the villa during our stay. Again, we would recommend both!

Our overall stay was great. Most notable was The Property Management company, specifically Ana. She is absolutely amazing. Ana is who we communicated with the most. Ana greated us when we arrived and gave us very clear instructions on the house and surroundings. Ana also helped us book restaurants and excursions. The house itself was as described and cozy. The one thing that was lacking was comfortable seating around the pool. The location is perfect. There are a couple of great restaurants on the road up to the house which is extremely convenient. We certainly enjoyed our stay and will return to the area as it is our most favourite.

The house is beautiful. The kitchen is great and has every appliance you need to cook. There is coffee, fruit basket, oil and salt. They delivered coffee filters. The beds are very comfortable with black out curtains in the master bedroom. The backyard is exactly as pictured. The view is beautiful. There are dragonflies, agoutis, hummingbirds and butterflies. The mini pool is nice for a dip, but it is chilly. The lounge furniture was nice to read on and relax with a beautiful view.  We enjoyed our time in the house.  The office and extra twin bed are up very steep ladders. The tv in the living room has apps to access streaming. In order to get the beautiful view, you have to drive up a near extremely steep 15 minute drive. We had "4 wheel" drive with our intermediate SUV we rented, and it was not enough. It is 20 minutes to Uvita or Domincal, so you have a drive to town. The concierge service was very helpful and nice.

What a fantastic place to stay. Well worth every penny. It can easily cater for 4 people and the view is unreal. We also saw more wildlife from just sitting in the garden than some wildlife tours we went on! Amazing place and wonderful hosts.

We loved it! The place looked even better than in the pictures. The property was very clean, the overall design of the house was amazing, the views were spectacular. We absolutely loved being able to see the Whale's Tail from the property. Ana, the host, was very helpful with recommending activities for us to do, very quick to respond if any questions arose! Overall, very lovely experience, would gladly return.

Choice location in a relaxing environment! Absolute tranquility with superb sea views and beautiful skies! The climb is a little surprising, but we get used to it quickly!

Emplacement de choix dans un environnement reposant! Tranquillité absolue avec une vue superbe sur la mer et les ciels magnifiques! La montée est un peu surprenante, mais on s’habitue rapidement!

If you get a chance to stay at this beautiful home, do it!! This gated home, surrounded by Costa Rica’s beauty was simply amazing; from the design, to the details of the furniture, to the peaceful view of the mountains, forest, and beach, to the private pool, to the house manager, Ana. Ryan and Kristen’s house was perfect. My bestfriend and I celebrated our birthday together and the house manager, Ana helped us curate the most beautiful stay. She helped us with booking a private massage in the house, a cake from a local bakery, things to do like the farmers market and hiking and restaurants down the hill, and much much more. Our stay was simply amazing and we will recommend to all of our friends and family.

Absolutely breathtaking and beautiful, definitely the best home we had the pleasure to stay in Costa Rica! Checking in was also very easy, and staff was super friendly. The delicious fruits were also a great delight and very much appreciated. I have no words. Thank you for the incredible stay !

Excellent home with a magnificent view of the ocean and the “whales tail”! We loved the location and the home! Highly recommend!!!

Omg.  What an amazing place and service.  Ana your were also amazing in helping us book excursions.  Will highly recommend and will definitely come again.  Thank you

The best Airbnb we stayed in Costa Rica. Everything was just perfect. The hosts have an excellent work team, the communication is exceptional. The staff always answered the questions, they provided us with a list of places to visit, eat and what we could do near the residence. They were always attentive before, during and after the stay. The space is incredible, the property is clean, everything is in excellent condition. We were super delighted with the comfort, tranquility and security of the place.

An excellent place to rest as a family, private, quiet and safe Excellent host support. Much more beautiful than what is shown in the photos, I recommend it and it's still a place I would go back to.

Un excelente lugar para descansar en familia, privado, tranquilo y seguro. Exelente atención de los anfitriones. Mucho mas hermoso de lo que se muestra en las fotos, lo recomiendo e igualmente es un lugar al que regresaria.

Couldn’t have been happier with our choice to stay at this wonderful home. Better than the pictures with views of the ocean better still. The home has everything you could need and the hosts and Manuel were attentive and responsive. I would highly recommend this place to anyone.

Great accommodation and host, I recommend 100%!

Super logement et hôte, je recommande a 100% !

Best Airbnb we stayed in Costa Rica. Everything was just PERFECT and thought trough in every detail. This is the real deal and the hands down the best ocean view you can find in that area. We felt 100% safe but you definitely need a 4x4 to climb up the hill to the this wonderful house. We saw loads of toucans and endless hummingbirds in the garden. Pool isn’t that big but more than enough to get cooles down after a day at the beach. Thanks for the amazing time PURA VIDA

The location is certainly in a location that requires a 4x4 car, but it's well worth the hard work up the mountain. During our 4 nights stay, we were able to see a lot of wildlife and birds. Not only the room, but also the pool and deck are well maintained, so we could stay comfortably. The kitchen had everything we needed and we enjoyed cooking. There were many small ants on the kitchen table when we checked in, but since the house is located in the middle of nature, we weren't surprised and thought we should accept it. The ceiling fan circulated the air, so I was able to spend comfortably even if I couldn't open the large door because of the rain. There was a washing machine and a dryer, and detergent was left, so I was able to wash my clothes as soon as I arrived. All my family were very satisfied with our 4 nights stay here. Thank you for this wonderful stay.

We had a great stay! Manuel and Beatriz were always there to help and checking in. The view is wonderful. We enjoyed the pool and the open air concept. The Coati came to see us several times. Great food right down the road (Scala). You can order online and pick up after a long day. There is also a bar (Jolly Roger) right down the road if you want a nice view, frosty beverages, and some salsa. We would definitely stay here again!

What a gem! Close to the best beaches and restaurants, just 5 minutes up the hill. The pool deck and the sliding glass doors are amazing. Great communication with the management company, Manuel in particular. Definitely one of our favorite vacation spots!

This house is UNREAL!! Not sure how it’s possible but it was even better than the photos. Very comfortable and clean! The view is out of this world. I knew I’d be able to see the ocean but what you actually see exceeded my expectations! Not only is the house incredible but the service was top notch. This too exceeded expectations! I was connected on a group chat with the whole staff and Manuel, the main service manager, was so helpful, friendly and thorough. I knew that the house was high up on a hill but I assumed that meant it would take awhile to get down and find restaurants. Not the case at all! There are 2 great restaurants and a cafe and even a little store on the road up to the house - literally within 5 minutes. Other restaurants and beaches etc weren’t far at all either. So you get the privacy being high up on the hill but you’re still close to town and areas of interest! You won’t be disappointed with this house or the management. Exceptional! Book it ASAP!
