The house is just what we expected. Perfect for a group of friends looking to have a good time, relax, and disconnect a little from everything. Jeff was in communication with us at all times and was very helpful. In addition, his recommendations for amenities and nearby places were just what we were looking for. We would definitely stay here again. 100% recommended!

Beautiful home we only stayed one night but enjoyed the infinity pool and the beautiful mountain and sea views. The only con is the twisty road to get to house, we were a large group of 12 so we had a van and a car and being in the van was a little scary especially at night. the 4 in the car had no problems at all reaching the house. the kids also loved the game room. thanks for sharing your home with our family.

Jeff was an awesome host. He went above and beyond, not just by being responsive on questions about the house, but also helping us find a trusted driver and even coordinating all communications with our chef(which our group highly recommends). The home does sit at the top of the hill and has a very access road so I would definitely recommend you hire a driver or rent a car that can handle the terrain.

It was an aweseome experience staying 2 nights there. we all enjoyed that place to the max. amazing view and being in the nature and at the same time ahving this view on the ocean is really unique. Communication was super fast, precise and we got additional very useful infos ahead of our trip and arrival. during the stay the response for questions was fast and friendly. We didn´t want to leave that wonderful "Oasis", but unfortunately had to travel back home to Europe. Looking forward to coming back one day 🇨🇷 That place and wonderful host really represents PURA VIDA 👍
