This was truly one of the best trips of my life!! The home is absolutely beautiful, even better than the photos, and was the perfect place for my group. A special thank you to Giulia, who was so kind, responsive, and incredibly helpful throughout the planning process. Xiomara was also amazing and made the most delicious meals. We looked forward to them every day. I am still thinking about those tasty tostadas! Also want to shout out Elsa who was also helping me- she was so patient and wonderful. A dream team! I truly couldn't have asked for a better experience. Everything exceeded my expectations, and I would recommend this home to anyone visiting Costa Rica.

This was one of the best vacations our family has ever been on! The house was just as it looks in pictures and set up perfectly for our family of 10. The pool and outdoor living space made for the perfect intimate stay our family was looking for as it was relaxing set up for fun. Guillia was an amazing concierge who took care of every detail, incredibly responsive and such a joy to work with answering countless questions and helping set up activities. Xiamara is the best keeping the house in immaculate shape and making the best breakfasts and lunches. She was so attentive and willing to work with us everyday on the menu. These two made this trip exceed above and beyond. We are looking forward to our next visit and would highly recommend working with this team!

Collin was very helpful and the stay was awesome! I would recommend a golf cart to get to the beach club but everything else was very convenient

This Airbnb was a great experience from start to finish. Collin, our concierge went above and beyond with recommendations, helped us book restaurants and activities, and was always quick to respond whenever we needed anything. The location was absolutely perfect for our occasion and made our stay in Costa Rica even more special.

My family and I travel often and on stays with our children we mostly opt for airbnbs. This villa, staff, concierge and trip overall was above and beyond everyone’s favorite. Apart from the house itself being beautiful, pictures don’t quite capture what it really looks like, the whole experience from start to finish was top notch. From travel arrangements, suggestions, and experiences available, to checking in and helping out along the way Colin was essential to the success of this trip. During our stay Xiamara made breakfast, cocktails, cleaned and did light laundry. It had the feel of a hotel experience with the space only a larger home can provide. I highly recommend staying and would stay again. The entire property has many things to do and is absolutely stunning and well cared for. If you do stay definitely take suggestions from the host on excursions because those added to all of our joy. This was our second time in Costa Rica and I would definitely stay here again.

This was our first trip to Costa Rica. The house and development were awesome. We spent a lot of time at the beach club and on the golf course. Collin was very responsive to the millions of questions we asked him throughout our stay (we had 6 adults and 6 kids total... which leads to lots of questions). A few general comments for first timers: - The roads in Costa Rica can be awful, so it can take a long time to get anywhere - Planning for meals is required, especially with a big group - definitely recommend hitting a grocery store on your way in as you'll go by then, but the closest is 20-25 minutes from the house

I had an incredible stay at this vacation house last week! Elsa and Collin were absolutely amazing hosts. From the moment I booked, they helped me plan every detail of my trip and made sure everything went smoothly. They were extremely knowledgeable about the area and went above and beyond to accommodate my group, especially when a tropical storm came through. Collin did everything possible to ensure we were comfortable and safe during the storm, which I really appreciated. The house itself was beautiful, spacious, and well-equipped, offering a perfect balance of relaxation and comfort. One thing to note, though, is that the location is about 30 minutes from Tamarindo, so it’s essential to have transportation arranged, whether it's a rental car or a private driver. Overall, this was a fantastic experience, and I’d highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a peaceful and well-catered getaway!
