We had an all-round successful stay! Communication was friendly and prompt – minor issues were resolved quickly. The place was clean, but a bit dated in some areas. We particularly enjoyed the wonderfully quiet location with the well-kept garden and the impressive pool. A clear recommendation – thank you for the wonderful time!

An absolutely dreamy accommodation! The house corresponds exactly to the description and the photos, and in "real life" it's even more beautiful. For us, it was definitely one of the nicest accommodations during our entire Costa Rica vacation. The location is very quiet, and at the same time, there is an incredible amount to discover and do in the area. Right by the house, we had several macaw couples visiting almost daily on a feeding tree. The saltwater pool is also worth mentioning! Also great: The hosts' service! Someone was always available via a specially set up WhatsApp group. If there were one or two small questions or even a necessary mini-repair, there was an immediate response and everything was taken care of right away. Communication, support and care were really top-notch with stars. We would book this place again anytime and can fully recommend it.

Our family of 4 had an absolutely amazing stay at Casablanca. The description is perfect of the location and the home itself, it was pristinely clean, everything is in working order and is a beautiful property. The host, Roberto, and his team were super helpful in every aspect. They handled the details of booking an excursion and a private chef for us which was above and beyond what we expected from them! I highly recommend this property and we will be back in the very near future!

We had a great stay! The house was beautiful, clean, and felt very secure throughout our trip. One thing to note is that if it feels a little warm when you first arrive, don’t worry the AC works great and the house gets super cold pretty quickly. The Wi-Fi was excellent and reliable the entire stay, which was a huge plus. The power did go out briefly during a rainstorm, but it came back on shortly after and didn’t affect our trip much at all. Overall, the home was exactly as described, comfortable, and well-maintained. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to future guests!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Casablanca! The hosts were very attentive and responsive to all of our questions and needs. The rooms were spacious and well equipped with everything our group needed. The pool area was incredibly relaxing, and the best part was the saltwater pool, it was such a nice touch and felt great on the skin. The hosts made our stay truly enjoyable and created an experience we’ll remember.
