Cozy Villa w/ Bali Inspired Pool and Amazing Views - Villas for Rent in Savegre, Puntarenas Province, Costa Rica

Excellent communication beautiful place to visit

This place is absolutely stunning — unbelievably beautiful. The house is very comfortable, and you can really feel that everything, both inside and around the property, was made with love. The pool is beautiful. We had a nice chat with the host — he is a very friendly and welcoming person, even treated us to bananas. It’s a truly fantastic place. I would love to come back here again and again, and I highly recommend it to everyone.

Wow! What an incredibly beautiful place to stay. We absolutely loved the peaceful energy of the place, with incredible views and relaxing pool time. Matt and Megan were so communicative and helpful. We loved how accessible it was to the beach and we even had whole days where we never left the property because it was so restorative and healing to be there in nature and cook in the kitchen. Grateful that people like Matt and Megan have put so much love into creating a space like this.

Outstanding! Matt’s villa exceeded my expectations. Peaceful, surrounded by nature, and great views.  
I based there and moved to Uvita, Manuel Antonio and other beach towns around.  
Would def recommend it.

Outstanding! Matt’s villa exceeded my expectations. Peaceful, surrounded by nature, and great views. I based there and moved to Uvita, Manuel Antonio and other beach towns around. Would def recommend it.

Really a little gem! Everything was in good condition and exactly as described. Nice hosts: helpful and accommodating. We were allowed to hang out by the pool after check-out. All in all a lovely experience and the place we highly recommend! If there was anything to point a finger at, it would be the road there, but it's clearly stated in the listing. More pressure on the shower, but it's really small things. We are very satisfied. Thanks for the loan of Casa Motmot. 🦜

Virkelig en lille perle! Alt var i fin stand og præcis som beskrevet. Rare værter: hjælpsomme og imødekommende. Vi fik lov at hænge ud ved poolen efter udtjekning. Alt i alt en dejlig oplevelse og stedet anbefaler vi meget! Hvis der skulle være noget at sætte en finger på, skulle det være vejen dertil, men det fremgår tydeligt af opslaget. Mere tryk på bruseren, men det er virkelig småting. Vi er meget tilfredse. Tak for lån af Casa Motmot. 🦜

Thank you for the 5 star review Gitte! Good news, the road is getting fixed next week! Enjoy the rest of your vacation.

Matt and Megan are great hosts, always helpful and making sure everything is fine. We appreciated the welcome folder a lot: It's an A4 Folder full of information, both of the house/property and activities in the surrounding. We travelled as a family with 2 young kids, and felt the house is a bit small, and an inside dining table would be nice because for dinner you need either bugspray (dining table outside) or stay at the couch table inside. The road through the property is a quite nasty and steep jungle roads. But those aspects are stated clearly in the listing, so we knew in advance and I think that's fair so you can decide whether this works for you or not. The beds are really comfortable One thing not in the listing, but a truly great feature are the "Hummingbird bushes" all around the house. One day I actually woke up and saw a hummingbird right outside the bedroom window (what a way to start the day), and they are frequent visitors on the bushes next to the terrace.

Thanks for your review Winni, we’re so glad to hear you enjoyed your stay with us! I was surprised to hear you didn’t enjoy the dinning table outside, we haven’t had any guests before say they had issues with the nature we’re surrounded by while eating. The ceiling fans above the table are also a great way to keep any mosquitos away if they’re bothering you. Yes our road requires 4 wheel drive as stated in our listing. Our property is very private, and to achieve this we had to make a long road to access it. The road itself is very safe as we drive it everyday without any issues. We are in a developing country and located in the mountains, roads like this are very normal for Costa Rica. I’m glad you rented a 4 wheel drive car so you didn’t have any problems with it. Come back anytime!

The beauty of nature at Matt's is magnificent! Perfect for a peaceful family stay! The view from the gym space is amazing and the diversity of plants is wow! Thanks Matt and Megan you are amazing hosts!

La beauté de la nature chez Matt est magnifique! Parfait pour un séjour paisible en famille! La vue de l’espace gym est incroyable et la diversité des plantes est wow! Merci Matt et Megan vous êtes des hôtes incroyables!

Matt’s place is wonderful. The garden and surrounding area is just so beautiful to walk around and enjoy the view and animals. We had the pool to ourselves and the kids loved it. Matt and Megan both were super friendly and helpful and came with good tips of what to do. We had an awesome time and would have loved to stay longer!

Thank you for this wonderful time We slept wonderfully and Matt and Megan welcomed us warmly and helpfully in their little paradise. From the decor to the pool, everything was clean, practical and nicely decorated! Our personal highlight was the fantastic yoga room and the garden! Thank you so much, maybe we'll come back one day!

Danke für diese wundervolle Zeit Wir haben herrlich geschlafen und Matt und Megan haben uns warmherzig und hilfsbereit in ihrem kleinen Paradies empfangen. Von der Einrichtung bis zum Pool war alles sauber, praktisch und schön eingerichtet ! Unser persönliches Highlight waren der traumhafte Yogaraum und der Garten ! Vielen vielen Dank , vielleicht kommen wir ja eines Tages wieder !

Matt and Megan were awesome hosts. The place is tucked away in nature and very peaceful. They've got great workout gear, and Megan gave us an amazing yoga class. It was so nice to spend time with family and unwind away from the city.

Anytime again, a very nice, warm and very nice place to stay. Here you can be one with nature. The approach to the house is a small challenge but with four-wheel drive it is easily manageable. Should I go on vacation to Costa Rica again, then definitely here. For me, the yoga room including the view was a dream.

Jederzeit wieder, eine sehr schöne, herzliche und sehr schöne Unterkunft. Hier kann man eins sein mit der Natur. Die Anfahrt zum Haus ist eine kleine Herausforderung aber mit Allrad gut machbar. Sollte ich wieder Urlaub in Costa Rica machen dann Aufjedenfall hier. Für mich war der Yoga Raum inkl. Aussicht ein Traum.

Thanks so much Alex! We’re so glad you had a great stay! Come back anytime!

Great place as advertised.   The pool and yoga space were highlights. It is far enough from main road to be truly quiet and relaxing.  Steep driveway - take it slow in 4x4 low!

The property is beautiful with its well-maintained gardens and views of the mountains. Our villa was new, well decorated and the amenities are of quality.   Matt was very welcoming and offered us excellent service.  In short, it's a great place to stay and admire nature.

La propriété est magnifique avec ses jardins entretenus avec soin et la vue sur les montagnes. Notre villa était neuve, bien décorée et les équipements y sont de qualité.   Matt a été très accueillant et nous a offert un excellent service.  Bref, c'est un superbe endroit pour séjourner  et admirer la nature .

Exceptional environment away from the city! Friendly welcome and Matt is very responsive! The only difficulty is access which requires a 4x4 but exceptional places are difficult to access😉! Thanks Matt

Environnement exceptionnel à l’écart de la ville ! Accueil bienveillant et Matt est très réactif ! La seule difficulté est l’accès qui nécessite un 4x4 mais les lieux exceptionnels sont difficiles d’accès 😉 ! Merci Matt

Matt and Megan were caring, responsive, warm hosts in a stunning place, which best suits people looking to slow down, relax and cool off, a bit further from the big crowds, but still close to some of the best places we've been to in CR - Playas Dominical, Playa Dominicalito, Uvita and Nauyaca falls (among others). It is the only place in CR where we didn't need AC at all due to cool breezes and high ceilings. The property grounds, all created and taken care of by Matt and Megan, are beautiful and have a super calming effect. Most days, we had a hard time getting out and doing activities, because it was just so easy to stay in, work out with a fantastic view, eat al fresco, cool down in the swimming pool and listen to the nature all around. We had the best time and would come back to this place with no hesitation.

Great place to stay... if you want to be a hermit. Impeccable communication with the host and cleanliness, but the location is terrible and worse than you can imagine. 30 minutes from the sea and after a long and dangerous stretch of dirt road. We were unlucky with the weather, and the road in the rain is not at all pleasant

Ottimo alloggio.. se vuoi fare l’eremita. Impeccabile la comunicazione con l’host e la pulizia, ma la posizione è pessima e peggio di ogni immaginazione. A 30 minuti dal mare e dopo un lungo e pericoloso tratto di strada sterrata. Siamo stati sfortunati con meteo, e la strada con la pioggia non è per niente piacevole

It pains me to read your review Noah, as I work extremely hard to ensure all of our guests have a 5 star experience. I’m very sorry you did not enjoy your stay with us. This is clearly not the trend with our place, as anyone can see all the other 34 reviews are 5 stars. We regularly have guests extend their stay with us because they enjoy it so much! I’d like to address the issues you’ve brought up. First off, I am sorry you had rain during your stay, we are located in the rain forest of Costa Rica, so this is pretty normal to have rain from time to time, but I know you had bad luck with multiple days in a row of rain, which if I could control I would. THE ROAD: It is paved the ENTIRE way to our property except for the last 1 and 1/2 kilometers, of which is dirt and gravel road, and it is perfectly safe even, in a downpour of rain! Our driveway is steep,  and this is why we require all our guests to rent a vehicle with 4x4, but IT IS VERY SAFE, we drive it everyday without any issues! Our location is very centrally located to grocery stores, the beach and lots of really great adventure activities our area of Costa Rica has to offer. Everyone really enjoys the peace and quiet our property offers while still being close to all sorts of things to do! We’re only 10 minutes to one of the absolute best waterfalls in Costa Rica, Nauyaca Waterfall, and only 20 minutes from another amazing waterfall, Eco Chontales. We are 20 minutes from the beach, NOT 30 minutes, as we make the drive daily.  The beach town of Playa Dominical has lots of great restaurants and shops, and is a great beach for relaxing, surfing, and walking at low tide, it is 20 minutes away. Everything I have stated above is very clearly stated in our listing description, so guests don’t have any surprises while they are here. Again, I’m sorry you didn’t enjoy your stay Noah, if there is anything I can do, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me.

We had an absolutely fantastic time staying at Matt & Megan’s cozy and comfortable Mountains By The Sea retreat. Throughout our stay from start to finish, everything exceeded our expectations. The communication with Matt was smooth and prompt, making the booking process hassle-free. The villa was clean and nicely decorated, providing a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. The property amenities provided were top-notch, ensuring that we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay in paradise. The location was perfect, with the most amazing views of Savegre de Aguirre surrounded by lush tropical landscapes with so many trees housing native birds and magical hummingbirds, and so many native plants surrounding the property. We enjoyed exploring the area and found plenty of great dining options, grocery stores, fun things to do and my fave playa Dominical nearby. Overall, our experience was nothing short of amazing. Definitely a hidden gem in paradise, can’t wait to return!

Beautiful location with friendly and helpful host. Very important to have a 4x4 to get to the location. Amenities are shared with a separate villa. Features amazing garden with unique and lush plants. Great views from the yoga studio.

This really is the perfect place to use as a base for visiting Dominical and its beautiful surroundings. The house is really full of comforts and not unimportant, the beds sleep really wonderfully. The decor has been thought with care and what guests like during a holiday stay. The surroundings around the house are decorated with a lot of taste and sense of detail. The pool is lovely. Communication with Matt went smoothly and he gives you plenty of rest and space to do your thing. In short, an address to remember! We'd love to come back.

Dit is echt de perfecte plek om als uitvalsbasis te gebruiken voor een bezoek aan Dominical en de prachtige omgeving. Het huis is echt van alle gemakken voorzien en niet onbelangrijk, de bedden slapen echt heerlijk. Er is met zorg nagedacht over de inrichting en dat wat gasten tijdens een vakantieverblijf fijn vinden. De omgeving rondom het huis is met zeer veel smaak en gevoel voor detail ingericht. Het zwembad is heerlijk. De communicatie met Matt verliep vlekkeloos en hij geeft je veel rust en ruimte om je ding te doen. Kortom, een adresje om te onthouden! Graag komen wij nog een keer terug.

It was the most beautiful Airbnb accommodation I have ever been to and I strongly recommend this location - my family (5 persons) loved this paradise. The pool is awesome, you can do sports with a fantastic view on the fitness deck, and there are so many activities close by; the waterfalls, the beaches,… the days we spent in Matt‘s and Megan‘s villa were gorgeous. They are also renting this villa and a second one to groups on a retreat for fitness and wellness - definitely the right place to take a mindful break. Once you have seen this view you will want to stay forever…

We had a quality stay in a splendid place. The villa and facilities were as described in every way. Megan and Matt are very attentive and welcoming hosts, while remaining discreet and respectful of our privacy. I would happily return to this place, also for a longer stay. It is an ideal base to access Dominical (beach, surf, restaurants) and nature (forest, waterfalls, etc.).

Nous avons passé un séjour de qualité dans un endroit splendide. La villa et les installations correspondaient en tous points à la description. Megan et Matt sont des hôtes très attentionnés et accueillants, tout en restant discrets et respectant notre intimité. Je reviendrais avec plaisir à cet endroit, également pour un séjour plus long. C'est une base idéale pour accéder à Dominical (plage, surf, restaurants) et à la nature (forêt, cascades, etc).

Matt and Megan have cultivated a truly amazing Airbnb experience. The villa was comfortable, beds are probably some of the best you will find in Costa Rica, and villa is nicely designed. Gas stoves! What a pleasure to cook on! The grounds are phenomenal. As you drive in you know you are entering somewhere special. We really enjoyed hanging out in the rancho area, playing in the pool, working remotely in the outside space while the monkeys howled and toucans, hummingbirds, parrots and other wildlife visited. The yoga studio was a great amenity to have with the lush jungle surrounding the property. Owner communication was great too. We look forward to visiting again one day.

awesome place,a little off the beaten track but excellent. just make sure you have a four wheel drive.

The property was absolutely gorgeous! The pool and outdoor space was a perfect home base for our stay in Costa Rica! LM gave us awesome recommendations.

Beautiful place, astonishing view to the mountains. Mat was a great host.

Our stay at Matt's compound was nothing short of spectacular. The breathtaking views and secluded location provided a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Matt, our host, was incredibly attentive, friendly, and hospitable, ensuring that our every need was met. Despite these highlights, the presence of a bug nest near the pool was a minor inconvenience, as it resulted in bugs occasionally ending up in the water. However, this small issue did little to detract from the overall amazing experience we had. We truly felt at home and had an unforgettable time.

Im so glad you all had a great stay with us! The bug next is gone now!

This was our favourite accommodation on our trip to Costa Rica.  Everything was very clean and well maintained.  The hosts were very friendly and helpful. The views and landscape were outstanding.  We stayed for 4 nights, but could easily have stayed here for a week or more.  I would highly recommend staying here!

Thank you so much Paige, we’re so happy you had a great stay!

Perfect stay in a lush environment!! The accommodation was very proore and the pool ideal for cooling off. Matt was a great host, available as needed and accommodating!

Séjour parfait dans un environnement luxuriant !! L'hébergement était tres proore et la piscine ideale pour se rafraîchir. Matt a été un hôte super, disponible au besoin et accommodant !

We had a lovely family holiday staying at Matt & Meghan's.  The property is beautiful; located in the thick of the jungle.  Amazing bird watching on the property.  The pool was a bonus and almost necessary to break the heat on some of the hottest days.  Our kids really enjoyed pool-time on the property.  Matt & Meghan were gracious, friendly and very responsive hosts.  Would recommend this spot to anyone looking for a peaceful jungle getaway.  Definitely need a 4x4 for the driveway/roads around.

Like in paradise! Super beautiful accommodation with even more beautiful garden and magnificent surroundings. Especially the pool and common areas for yoga or sporting activities have made our days there a special experience. The place is so beautiful that you almost forget that there are also many beautiful spots to discover in the area. Highly recommended!

Wie im Paradies! Super schöne Unterkunft mit noch schönerem Garten und herrlicher Umgebung. Besonders der Pool und die Gemeinschaftsflächen für Yoga oder sportliche Aktivitäten haben unsere Tage dort zu einem besonderen Erlebnis gemacht. Die Unterkunft ist so schön, dass man fast vergisst, dass auch in der Umgebung viele schöne Spots zu entdecken sind. Wirklich sehr zu empfehlen!

Matt is very friendly, helpful and responsive host. The property is full of wild live: we saw howler monkeys, toucans, hummingbirds (next to our porch). Besides there many beautiful secluded beaches around Dominical. We had really great time!

Beautiful view from the accommodation. Very refreshing!

Magnifique vue depuis le logement. Tres ressourçant!

We had a fabulous time at Meghan & Matt's compound. The house was very comfortable and the pool setting excellent. The location was great, an easy commute to beaches and it was nice to be tucked away a bit. I would note that they recommend 4WD for their driveway which has a steep incline, if you have 4WD it makes entering and exiting stress free. We would highly recommend and would make a future stay here! Thank you!

The natural beauty and peace was just what we were looking for. The land immediately surrounding the home is lovingly landscaped and then there is wilderness beyond that. No roads or traffic to be seen or heard. We loved watching and listening to the birds, toucans and so many others, who'd become active especially towards the end of the day. The pool area with large, comfortable lounge chairs and fountain is gorgeous. And the view from above, looking out over the valley and mountains, so serene. Matt is a wonderful steward of the land as well as generous, friendly host. He shared what he knew about the area and helped us to figure out things to do, given our interests. The beach nearby is lovely and if you walk or drive a bit down from the main parking lot of the beach in Dominical, you'll find spots where you're practically on your own. That said, I was always happy to go back to the house because of the peace and beauty there. We got pretty attached and were sad to leave.

What a haven! We landed here after some big adventures with our 10 and 7 year old. Matt and Megan made everything so easy. They were incredibly inviting, kind and willing to answer questions. The space was beautifully organized and clean and well cared for. The pool!!!!! We lived in the pool. We heard howler monkeys often and watched  toucans fly by in the morning. This would be an excellent place to rent with another family or group of friends. It’s well suited to gathering and hanging out. Really really special.

Matt and Megan were truly the perfect hosts, and their space is incredibly beautiful. They were available for any and all questions we had, and made us feel so welcomed. Our family of four rented one of their units and our friends rented the other; it was the perfect setup! Our kids had plenty of room to explore around the yard, and they LOVED the pool. Overall the space felt clean, safe, and relaxing. Not to mention the view! Our favorite part of visiting Costa Rica was waking up here and we would love to come back one day.

I loved it! Not close to town but I didn’t mind.. the peacefulness and the perfect climate of the mountain was wort the drive! The commun area and the yoga deck was unbelievable!! Strongly suggest!!:)) and if you want to organize a retreat thats your perfect place!! Don’t search anywhere else you will love it!!:))

After my wife and daughter had stayed at Matt & Meghan’s place earlier in the year (and loved it), I booked for my short stay in December.  What can I say?  Matt was really responsive in the lead-up to check-in, and kept in touch throughout the stay.  The setting: jaw-dropping beauty.  The accommodation: spotless, well-appointed.  I loved sitting out on my private deck with a morning coffee, looking out over the mountains and rain forest.  I took advantage of the fitness deck - a welcomed change from my home gym.  There is something to be said for working out surrounded by such lush beauty, complete with the calls of toucans and howler monkeys urging you to do « just a few more reps ».  Don’t forget to reward yourself with a post-workout plunge in the azure pool!  Matt graciously took time to walk me through their food forest, sharing his knowledge and lessons learned in nurturing this labour of love.  We’ll definitely be back in a future trip with our whole family!

We loved our stay at mountains to sea. the house was comfortable, the surroundings are beautifull and the view is nice. We liked chilling at the poolside. Also the temprature in the mountains is much nicer(cooler) then down in dominical.

Matt and Magen are great hosts, available and fast on any request. The house feels brand new and very high standard. The view is breathtaking, so many animals around the house. Best beds i slept on 😊

An incredible location, with no sounds of the world other than nature, with cool breezes and beautiful mountain views. The pool is lovely and the yoga/fitness studio is amazing and inspiring. It was perfect for our family of 4 and a nice reset for mom and dad as we were motivated to take our yoga to the next level. We will definitely be back.

Beautiful place with everything we needed and more. Host was very accommodating and even came to bring over fresh fruit from his orchard.

Matt & Meg's property is stunning! Super nice people and the grounds are incredible. Highly recommend staying here. Matt even went out of his way to cut fresh bananas for our family.

Loved staying at Matt’s place. He was incredibly kind and helpful and his place is beautiful and well-kept. It had a lovely outdoor shower to get clean before coming in, and had a great hot water supply. We really enjoyed the pool and the view. It has everything you need for a peaceful stay!

This place is pure magic! You can definitely see the love and hard work Matt and Meg put into the property. What a wonderful experience. 10/10 reccomend.

Matt and Megan are lovely, their spot is awesome, and we really enjoyed our stay. One of our favorite airbnbs on this trip. Would absolutely book again !

we couldnt find a better holiday destination. brand new, perfect clean, well-equipped, clean pool with sunbeds….totally private and quiet, still only 5minutes to store and services and some 20mins to beautiful beach in Dominical. we saw more birds and animals on the private land belonging to Matt and Megan then in Manuel Antonio National Park. we strongly recommend and hope we will have a chance to come back one day. thanks to Matt and Megan for being great hosts….always ready to help and give a guidance.

Matt and Megan were nothing short of amazing. The house is on a hill with an especular view of the jungle and mountains. 20 mins to dominical and gave us enough distance from the beach to feel like you're in the mountains. Beautiful pool and social area as well as space for yoga. We will be back!

Matt & Megan's place is a little piece of paradise hidden in the mountains.  The property is just recently completed (late 2022) and everything is in tip-top shape.  The hosts live in another house on the property and are very responsive and clearly care about the guest experience.  It was absolutely amazing doing yoga early in the morning on the 2 story workout/ health center on property, and watching the sun rise!
