The house was amazing. Very accurate and so comfortable. We used the recommended chef and the food was delicious! It made our late night arrival so much easier not to have to worry about food for dinner or breakfast the next morning. The house was beautiful and the cleaner was so nice! The grounds are beautiful and we loved the little reading nooks. We traveled with 4 girls ages 5-11 and they loved the house. Pura Vida!!

We had a lovely stay at Casa Melosa! The house was great for our group of 16. We cooked a lot at home, and Casa Melosa really had a super well-equipped kitchen! Probably the best-equipped kitchen of all the houses we've rented! The outside common areas were beautiful and well furnished. Roofs covered its spaces well to protect us from the rain and sun. The air conditioning in the bedrooms and kitchen worked very well. Thanks for a lovely stay

Great place for our group of 14. A couple minutes walk to the beach or to the restaurants. Not a bad drive from the airport or to other spots along the coast. Separate sleeping spaces, but great central hangout spaces around the pool and kitchen. Amazing plants and animals everywhere. Good assortment of cooking equipment but limited general ingredients (no oils, spices, etc).

This place was such an oasis for our family of 13! The plants and flowers are incredible. We saw monkeys in the trees outside our gate. We loved coming back to the pool at end of our excursions/beach play days. What I loved most was MaryAnnes recommendations. The catamaran she recommends is hands down our favorite outing! We also loved Ricardo tours she recommends. He will do anything to please. We booked two all day trips with him, but then asked if he could drive us to Tamarindo for 1/2 day and he put together cabanas, lunch and surfing lessons. I also cannot say enough about the Orofinos chef delivery service. This was our best decision, we communicated with them ahead of time about what we’d like our dinner menus to look like and they delivered them each night and they were so amazing! We also added breakfast a few mornings. They were such a blessing to our family! It was great to come home to comfort food and not stress about menus and prices at restaurants.

We had a terrific stay at Casa Melosa. The property was perfect for our large family. The pool area is a natural gathering place along with lots of seating. Plus there are additional table and chair arrangements for smaller groups. The kitchen is very well equipped and a large picnic type table accommodated us all. Sandra, the housekeeper, is wonderful and helped us with whatever we needed. A short walk away is a coffee shop (worth a stop) and a small Italian market for packaged foods. A perfect place for all 15 of us!

We truly enjoyed our stay at the villa. Four moms and four teen boys. Mary Anne provided local contacts, restaurants, and was always available for assistance. Sabrina was always there. she was warm and lovely. perfect villa for us. recommend

This was a stunning airbnb! It had 7 bedrooms, all with their own bathroom. There was a maid named Sandra who was a fantastic help throughout our stay, changing towels and sheets as needed. She also answered questions and provided us with anything we were looking for. I loved how there was so much outdoor space. It was private but yet only a 10 minute walk to a grocery store and restaurants. TVs in bedrooms/common area were not as advertised as an FYI. I would return and recommend this villa for all! Thanks for a great stay!

Stayed with our entire family including grandkids - 16 in total. This was the ultimate villa for a group our size, and Mary Anne was an exceptional host. The property is ideally located with endless private and cozy nooks along with spacious common areas for group dining and relaxing by the pool. We would definitely go back again!

Space was clean and we all felt safe. Beautiful food, people and beaches. Would be happy to go again.

Wow! This place was an absolute dream. We stayed there with a group of 16 aging from 1 year old to 75 years old. It was everything we hoped for and more. Beautiful space, plenty of privacy but also great common areas for all of us to relax together. There were almost no bugs on the property, but we saw plenty of wildlife in the area. So many lovely spots to visit and restaurants to enjoy very close. Mary Anne gave great recommendations and was always prompt in getting back to me when I had questions (which was frequently). Would absolutely return.

This place was a perfect setting for our multigenerational girls trip to Costa Rica. The neighborhood was easy to find and was safe. The place had plenty of space and bedrooms. The pool was refreshing and clean. The outdoor kitchen/barbecue was easy to use. I can’t say enough good things about it. Everybody loved the location and the amenities. Mary ann was very responsive and wanted to ensure we had everything we needed.

Mary Anne was very nice and helpful. Wow factor exceeded the pictures.

Casa Melosa was the perfect spot for our trip and had everything we needed to enjoy our time in Costa Rica. The cabins were extremely clean and comfortable and all of the amenities made for a great trip. We would definitely be happy to come back!

Maryanne was a great host. Our housekeeper, Sandra became our friend and she was amazing. She kept it so clean, little to no insects which is great in CR. House is clean, private and had everything we needed! The gardens were beautiful, the pool was refreshing and everyone had a private bedroom with their own bathroom. We had a group of 14 and this place had plenty of space for all of us. We also used a private chef, Chef GerLi’s Kitchen and he was also beyond amazing!!! My family will definitely come back to Casa Melosa
