We had an absolutely incredible stay in Costa Rica! The property looked exactly like the pictures online, if not even better in person. Our host was phenomenal. Incredibly friendly, welcoming, and so accommodating throughout our entire visit. Do not hesitate to book this place! A huge special shoutout to our guides, Luis and Juan Carlos, for taking such good care of us and getting us everywhere safely! They made exploring the area seamless and stress-free. 10/10 experience, we can’t wait to come back!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Sophie and her amazing home! We’ve stayed in vacation rentals all over the United States, but this was our first stay in Costa Rica, and it exceeded every expectation we had. The home was beautiful, comfortable, and thoughtfully equipped with everything we needed. The pool was absolutely incredible and quickly became one of our favorite parts of the property. We also loved that each bedroom had its own air-conditioning unit, allowing everyone to set their preferred temperature and sleep comfortably. One of the most memorable parts of our stay was the wildlife. We saw monkeys in the trees as soon as we parked, and throughout our visit we enjoyed spotting colorful birds and other local wildlife right from the property. It truly felt like an authentic Costa Rican experience. The location, amenities, and overall atmosphere were outstanding, and Sophie was a fantastic host. We highly recommend this home to anyone visiting Costa Rica.

My partner and I had an unforgettable stay at Casa Okma, easily the best Airbnb we’ve ever experienced. The views were absolutely stunning, and the home was beautifully designed, spotless, and incredibly peaceful. It truly felt like the perfect place to disconnect and recharge. Having a car made exploring the area much easier and gave us the freedom to fully enjoy everything nearby. Sophie was amazing throughout our stay. She was kind, attentive, and always available to help with many local recommendations. She truly went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. We also highly recommend @partytownstore on IG and the terrace massages, which were incredibly relaxing and made the trip even more special. For my birthday, we hired chef Dania for dinner, and it was unforgettable. Every dish was unique, flavorful, and beautifully explained, highlighting native Costa Rican flavors. The mountain-view pool, breathtaking architecture, and gorgeous decor made Casa Okma 1 of 1.

This place caught my eye immediately when I looked into booking a trip to Costa Rica. Was super excited until we arrived. The place is as pictured but all areas are separate. There is a code for each room and kitchen. They aren’t connected and you have to go outside each time. All fine and well until you have to fight off insects every time you open a door. When we entered one of the rooms there was a lizard/gecko. But the real issue came when I started to find live spiders hanging over the bed. The bunk area had dead bugs also. Also found a nice size spider in the vase in the lounge area where I planned to sleep during my stay but immediately didn’t feel comfortable. Reported it to support but no help. Host brushed it off and said that’s to be expected arriving after the rainy season as if we knew that. We left within 2 hours of arrival and the host was unwilling to offer any form of a refund be it partial or full. Luckily we were able to save our trip elsewhere and will be back again

Very beautiful stay, surrounded by nature! Exactly what we expected when it came to views, space, and location. Very responsive host with great recommendations and details on the area. There was a bit of construction taking place as it seems like they're expanding the property, but other than some noise throughout the day it was a peaceful experience. Would recommend for anyone looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city!

I don’t even know where to start with my review, everything about this home was absolutely perfect. Casa Okma was exactly as shown in photos, if not even more spectacular in person. I was in complete awe from the moment we walked in to the moment we had to depart and I am already planning my next trip! Sophie is an amazing host, so responsive and helpful in every aspect. Every question I had, she was available. Big or small. She offers a guide with many great recommendations, the home is perfectly nestled between utter beauty and a very friendly environment. The locals are kind, the property is clean and everything was absolutely perfect. Could not have asked for a better casa for our first Costa Rica visit. Thanks so much for having us, Sophie!

From the moment we arrived, we were struck by the uniquely beautiful design, blending natural elements with modern comfort in a way that was both calm and inviting. Surrounded by lush greenery and the sounds of nature, it felt like a true escape from everyday life. Whether we were enjoying a quiet morning sunrise or unwinding in the evening, there was a peacefulness here that’s hard to put into words. It’s the kind of place where you find yourself pausing just to take it all in. If you’re looking for a serene, beautifully designed retreat with unforgettable scenery, this property is truly something special.

The photos absolutely don't do this place justice. I wish I had a video of my family walking into it for the first time. This is the best AirBnB I have ever stayed in with gorgeous amenities and nothing has been overlooked. The setting is so serene and relaxing. The rooms are well appointed. The outdoor dining space is perfect for making family memories. It was very hot while we were there and we appreciated having air conditioned rooms to come inside to. Sophie is a marvelous host, communicative and so friendly. We will return!
