Lila

Lila was incredibly helpful throughout our stay. She went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed including a fun itenerary. Her property has amazing views from every room and was one of the highlights of our stay. We had an amazing time and would love to stay here again.

Lila was a great host with clear communication. The place was amazing and had a great view of the ocean. House was clean and spacious and loved the pool. Would stay here again.

Our stay at “Casa Makasi” was simply fantastic! The hostess was incredibly kind and always helpful. The house itself is beautiful, very clean and furnished with a lot of love. The service was first class and the view – simply spectacular! The breathtaking sunsets in particular made our stay unforgettable. Absolute recommendation!

Gorgeous, quiet location higher up on the mountain which is conveniently away from all the dust. 2 adorable dogs visited us on a few occasions. Spacious rooms with air conditioning in each one. Highly recommended for families or small groups.

Would 1000% recommend Lila’s ocean view home to anyone visiting Santa Teresa. It’s an amazing feeling to wake up with coffee and an expansive ocean view. It was so peaceful and quiet there, yet if we needed to head to town we were a short drive to restaurants and shops, and best of all beaches. Lila was a great host who was very responsive to our needs. Thank you for an unforgettable stay…one of the best AirBnB’s out there

Gorgeous view from the back of the house that overlooks the ocean. We enjoyed the warm salt water pool and the sunsets are incredible! The house was clean, private and comfortable and had almost everything we needed. (We did not have paper towels, laundry detergent, or ice. There is also only 1 blow dryer just so you know. ) Be aware that you will need a 4-wheel drive vehicle to get up the steep dirt and rock road. The road was our only challenge, otherwise we cannot complain about a thing. There are beautiful birds and butterflies all over the property and there is a caretaker and his dog on the property who were both very friendly. The host, Lila, was very nice, responsive, and helpful. I would recommend staying here if you don’t mind the steep rough road getting up to the house… it is worth it.

Our stay at Lilla’s place in Costa Rica was nothing short of incredible. From the moment we booked, Lilla was extremely helpful and responsive—always quick to answer our questions and provide great local tips that made our trip even more special. You can tell she genuinely cares about her guests having a great experience. The property itself was stunning, but what truly took our breath away was the view—honestly one of the best I’ve ever seen. Whether we were enjoying our morning coffee or winding down in the evening, the scenery never got old. It was peaceful, beautiful, and exactly what we needed to disconnect and recharge. Highly recommend this spot if you're visiting Costa Rica—you’ll be in great hands with Lilla, and the view alone is worth the trip!

We absolutely loved Lila’s place and would love to come back in the future. We already recommended to friends of ours with kids. The house is up on a hill and could be hard to get to without a 4x4 vehicle but the view of the ocean and peace and quiet being up above everything made it worth it. The drive to town was only 5 min. The house was beautiful and exactly as pictured. We loved having laundry available in the house, the place was spotless and cleaned every two days while we were there. Kid friendly with a crib and high chair provided. Lila was super helpful and responsive to questions.

This house has amazing views! It’s very peaceful and relaxing. The house is just as it looks in the photos. Excellent and communicative host. Friendly neighbors. Another benefit is the house is only 5 -10 minutes from the restaurants and beaches. Highly recommend!

We absolutely loved staying at Lila’s place. Everything was perfect!

We had the BEST week at Casa Makasi!! The house is amazing, so light and airy, the view is incredible, and it came fully stocked for us to truly feel like it was our home away from home for the week. The location of the house is amazing, too. It’s super close to the center of town with bars, restaurants, and grocery stores a few minute drive away, but when you’re at the house, it feels like you’re in the middle of the jungle surrounded by just nature. I highly, highly recommend Casa Makasi!

We had a great time at this villa! Wow the views are even better than the photos. My kids loved the infinity pool. Beautiful home, really private and comfortable and still close to town. Thanks Lila for all the activity and restaurant recommendations.

Lila was an amazing host and Casa Makasi is a wonderful property. The pool and the view is stunning - truly one of the best AirBnBs in Santa Teresa. Lila also greeted us with fruits, water, and beers. We had a few problems along the way but Lila made sure to promptly fix them. Make sure you rent ATVs or have a 4 wheel drive as the house is on a hill - very worth it though.

Casa makasi is a 10/10. The ocean views from the property are unreal. Extremely peaceful location with the calm noises of the ocean and wildlife around you. Couldn’t recommend this Airbnb enough. Thanks Lila🤙🏽 pura vida
