5BR Luxury Villa in Jaco

Andy

Excellent, 1 month ago

Jai was the best host I’ve ever had. She was very warm, accommodating and attentive as well as extremely helpful in planning our excursions, meals, ground transportation, and anything else we needed. When you’re visiting a country for the first time, this is exactly the kind of the host that you want because she’s spent years establishing relationships with the locals so you don’t have to worry about booking anything directly and possibly messing something up. You can tell she takes her guests experience seriously because she works very hard behind the scenes to make sure that you’re taken care of. Thank you Jai.

let me say that JAI was a phenomenal host. She had all my excursions put together for me that I wanted to do. It was 14 of us. She got us a great discount. She also had a local transportation for us as well. She communicated with us with everything that happened. What I will say is that the pictures are very deceiving I knew we would be in a rainforest, but I did not think that the trees will be everywhere. I feel like if it was cleaned up a little, it would have been better. Also, the lights went out on us at least six times from Thursday through Sunday she stated it was a outage in their country and that they were working on fixing the problem on top of that one of the villas that we stayed in refrigerator had went out and we thought that it would be one big villa however it was two villas next to each other four rooms in one villa and four rooms in the other.

If I could rate this stay with more than 5 stars I would! This was a perfect week. Which can be accredited mostly to our host Jai ! She was super available any time we wanted a recommendation, tour, or ride she was there to help. We were greeted with coconuts (and taught how to open them) and then walked through everything we needed to know in order to treat the space care and respect. She even went above and beyond by taking hours out of her day to take us on a beautiful hike through the forest and then to the farmers market and helped us navigate through all the amazing vendors. We will be back.

Review of Air B&B Villa wanderlust review We would definitely recommend Villa Wanderlust to our friends and family! Our family had a wonderful time at Wanderlust. Jai was more kind and helpful than we could have asked for! She helped us schedule the perfect excursions for our family, helped us figure out how to meet dietary needs, and even called taxis for us as needed. Jai set up an in house chef at our request for 3 or 4 meals. They did a fantastic job. :) Jai even brought coconuts one day for the kids to chop the tops off and drink the coconut water:) They were more than pleased. The house, pool, and grounds were magical! We enjoyed opening the doors and windows each morning to enjoy the warmth of the jungle. We saw many frogs, birds, and lizards. There were plenty of towels and linens to meet our needs. The house was very clean. The pool and hot tub were clean and enjoyable. This is a terrific jungle house to enjoy in Costa Rica.

Jai was a phenomenal Host!! My group was 13 and we honestly were a hurricane of a family. Jai was patient, kind, and attentive to our whole group. She organized every excursion any of us threw her way. We did a day boat excursion, diving, lazy beach day, horseback riding, Antonio Manual national park, even had a very amazing team of chefs come in a feed us one night (which I highly recommend). You can tell how much Jai loves doing what she does in Jaco. Hands down one of my family's favorite vacation experiences. If we ever come back to Jaco we will surely be asking Jai if she would accept us again. ** To note: My 11-year-old broke a window ... Jai calmly explained what needs to happen came up with a corrective plan and politely helped me make it right. Jai is a very classy, positive person and was honored to have spent time in her amazing place.

Jai was very accommodating, responsive. She planned and made all our reservations base on her recommendations and it exceeded our expectations. I celebrated my 50th birthday there and it was the best ever!!! It’s a beautiful space in a beautiful place. It was truly in the jungle with animals (wild and domestic), insects and other creatures. We all are animal lovers and enjoyed their dogs and sharing space. Thank you Jai for creating a magical, memorable celebration 🥳 🎂🙏🏻🥰

Jai was such an amazing host! I’d give her 10 stars if I could! Hands down the best host I’ve ever worked with. Her place is so breathtaking! Such an amazing place to stay and unwind. Perfect to escape the real world for some days. If I comeback to Costa Rica Jai would be the first person I’d message to book another stay with again! Thank you again for being such an amazing human being and giving the group such an awesome time.

Jai crafted a dream Costa Rican escape at her magnificent villas near Jaco. Her exceptional hospitality and meticulous details ensured an unforgettable experience. Beautifully appointed villas offered utter relaxation. Jai's concierge service seamlessly arranged excursions and transportation. Private chefs were phenomenal, and on-site massages divine. Her remarkable availability and loveling crafted space made the stay extraordinary. Pack bug spray. Highly recommend for a seamless, luxurious, and memorable vacation. Thank you, Jai!

Three of us stayed at Wanderlust to celebrate the upcoming wedding of a friend. Our stay was nothing short of amazing. Highlights of the accommodations were the incredibly comfortable beds, the peaceful atmosphere and the fantastic hot tub. What really makes this place stand out is Jai. Jai could not have done more to make our stay a magical occasion. She provided us with impeccable food and drink recommendations, connected us with local, trustworthy transportation and bent over backwards to make sure everything was perfect. Jai really is a special treat. We all hope to be back someday.

Jia place was awesome and almost as great as her hosting and concierge services. The accommodations in the two villas were just what our larger group was looking for: very private, very natural look and feel, tastefully decorated, clean and well equipped. Beds were very comfortable, bathrooms clean and there was plenty of space indoors and outside to relax and socialize. We loved congregating outside around the pool or the firepit. Jai's hosting services were second to none. She assisted with most of our tours and excursion planning including reservations and pre-purchasing tickets when needed. She ensured we had transports lined up which was no small feat given the size of our group and how many different activities we wanted to explore. She arranged for an in house chef and staff to cook fantastic dinners every night we were there. She even assisted on an unplanned visit to urgent care for one of our group in the middle of the night.Very highly recommend this location and this host!

Wanderlust was absolutely amazing! Just like the pictures and just as I imagined. I celebrated my 45th birthday weekend with six girlfriends. When planning this birthday trip I knew I wanted a jungle paradise experience and Jai delivered. The villa was safe, clean and had all the amenities mentioned in the description. Jai was a prompt and attentive host. The concierge service she provided gave endless recommendations for restaurants, entertainment and experiences. Although our trip wasn’t long, we were able to fit a day of excursions and a day of relaxation without feeling overwhelmed or rushed. We hiked, zip lined, toured, got massages in the garden and had a yoga class. Our last night a private chef prepared dinner and we had a surprise fire show! 🔥 I highly recommended allowing Jai to curate your vacation at Villa Wanderlust. Pura Vida!! ❤️
