Casa Okma Villa with Pool and 360° Mountain Views in Matapalo, Provincia de Guanacaste, Costa Rica

Casa Okma is magical. The views, the butterflies, the amenities.  Everything is perfect. We could not have asked for a more comfortable, beautifully appointed place.  We will be back!

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.

I am very grateful for your message. Thank you again.

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!

See you soon, Thank you for your kindness.

Beautiful property with great directions!

Great stay 10/10! Definitely recommend and super beautiful views

We had a wonderful time at Sophie's home waking up in the morning drinking coffee to the sunrise was beautiful. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook dinners and a must to hire Dania the chef who prepared an amazing dinner for us one night. Everyone who we came in contact with here at the house was nice and friendly and made us feel at home. So thank you again Sophie's for lending us your home and always taking care of our needs during our stay.

This space is hands down one of the most amazing airbnb's that we have stayed-total nervous system reset.  High up on a mountain with incredible views and a VERY private space.  The architect nailed his goal to create a space that truly pulls one into nature, into grounding, into presence.   Our favorite parts of our stay- We brought 2 chairs in the morning (430am) to the Yu bedroom porch and listened to the jungle "wake up."  Lots of birds,-parrots, monkeys-howler monkeys heard every morning.  Monkey sightings.  You see and hear more from the bedroom porch than the front terrace.  At night we star gazed while lying on the cement chaise lounges. LOVED restaurant- La Estella,  Flamingo beach (can rent cabana 40$, massage 30$, drinks, etc.) We drove to La Fortuna & spent the day at EcoTermales hot springs (HIGHLY RECOMMEND)- 40$/person-high end hot spring. Do not recommend hiking in Feb at Las Catalinas- No shade cover- very hot on the skin.  Sophie is very responsive and helpful!

We had a wonderful time at Casa Okma! An architectural marvel! It is truly beautiful and enjoyed spending days/evenings at the pool. We enjoyed the kitchen and our privacy. Parking is available for a must-have rental car and location is great for those who are comfortable being a bit off beaten path. Sophie was incredibly responsive when we had an electrical outage on site and generally when we had any questions. Highly recommend!

We really loved the stay! Easily one of the best experiences I’ve ever had with Airbnb. Everything was clean and stylish, very well equipped and Sophie was really helpful. Would totally recommend 🌙

My first visit to Costa Rica was truly unforgettable, and I’m sharing my experience here because this house played a significant role in making it so special. From breathtaking scenery to stunning architecture, this house is a true gem. Sophie, our host, was an exceptional guide. Since it was my first time visiting, I had a few questions, and she was more than happy to answer them and provide me with valuable insights. I highly recommend this house and Sophie’s exceptional hospitality.

Moon house was an amazing place to stay.   Sophie and Hugues were friendly and responsive.  We are stay home and cook people and the and the kitchen was extremely well equipped with everything needed.   The outdoor living space was comfortable and the views lovely.  We walked daily, down the gravel road across from the casa and it was peaceful. Cooled off in the pool, enjoying the view, after the climb home.  I would highly recommend this place and certainly return.

This is the easiest five star review to write because it was by far my favorite place I have ever stayed. The pictures in the listing are beautiful, yet somehow in person it is even more spectacular. Every detail of the house is so intentionally designed - it feels calm/beautiful/organic/comfortable. There is a book with tons of recommendations and manuals to how to work everything which was super helpful. Sophie was easy to communicate with and always responsive. Really was an amazing stay and only wish we could have stayed longer!

We had an incredible stay at Casa Okma. The mountain views are absolutely stunning and somehow even better in person—especially in the mornings at sunrise. The pool was a true highlight: beautifully designed, perfectly positioned, and ideal for relaxing after a day at the beach. The house itself is thoughtfully designed with a great layout, stylish finishes, and a very comfortable, welcoming feel. Everything felt intentional and well cared for, from the indoor spaces to the outdoor living areas. It’s the kind of place where you immediately feel at ease and don’t want to leave. The Host, Sophie, was incredibly responsive and helpful with local suggestions as well as sharing her beautiful art studio with us. If you’re looking for a peaceful, beautiful stay with amazing views, a fantastic pool, minutes from the beach, and a home that’s both functional and gorgeous, this place checks every box. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it.

Everything was amazing!! The House was EVERYTHING!!!! Definitely didn’t want to leave! I will definitely be going back and booking the same exact house! It was absolutely Perfect and Sophie was very helpful!

My partner and I had an unforgettable stay here! Sophie was the perfect the host. She met us at check-in time, showed us around, and made sure we were comfortable. She even acted as a personal concierge and arranged massages at the home. The place itself is probably one of the most beautiful airbnbs I’ve ever stayed at. You are perched atop a mountain and have 360 degree sweeping views of beautiful Costa Rican landscape. The photos do not do it justice. We were in awe when we entered the foyer and walked up the stairs. This home was built by the owner and you can tell. There are high end furnishings, appliances, linens, dishes. Absolutely no detail was spared when they built the home. The design is very unique- the home is a half moon shape that centers around a nice saltwater infinity pool. I am a host myself and this airbnb totally exceeded my expectations. Thanks again Sophie! We will definitely be back!!!

What a pleasure to read your words, thank you Sophia.

Perfect place for our family of 5 with three teens to get away.  Enjoyed the pool and hillside views, sunrises and easy drive to Playa grande and places to eat.  The outdoor patio is the perfect place to eat, play cards and listen to music.  We would return.

Casa Okma is an architecturally beautiful house surrounded with nature. We felt completely at home. The hosts, Sophie and Hugues, are very responsive and had thought of every little thing the guests might need. We loved their place and would like to be back someday. Highly recommend!!

As always when I stay at Sophie’s home I always receive the best treatment & care. The home is beyond amazing, I came here with my mum & we had such a peaceful time by the pool. There’s a humminbbird visiting the flowers every couple of minutes & such beautiful nature you’ll love it! The home is modern, comfortable & with the best amenities! Best airbnb I stayed in Costa Rica!

A wonderful Airbnb with an exceptional breathtaking view! The place is stylish, comfortable, and perfectly equipped. We had a fantastic stay and would love to come back.

This home is incredible & I am booking to stay again! Not only the whole properly is so beautifully designed but the hosts have incredible attention to detail & made sure I had the best time. The kitchen has incredible appliances & the infinity pool is a dream! 100% recommend!

This was one of the best places I have ever stayed. The hosts were absolutely wonderful and I would 100% recommend!

Thanks Hunter, glad to have had you here.

Hugo and Sophie were great hosts! Welcome fruit basket and an instant stunning view right upon arrival. The pool is an amazing touch surrounded by one of a kind architecture…this place is truly unbeatable. Do not miss your chance to experience Casa Okma and all the magic it has to offer. Plus location is central to all, including beaches such as Tamarindo & Playa Grande & along with many more a short distance drive. Highly recommend, we will be back!!

The accommodation is wonderful, we loved everything. Everything is new and we were the first guests. From the villa there is an incredible view, especially beautiful at sunrise. The house is fully equipped, it has everything you need to live and even more. The area is very good, and you can reach many beaches in 10-15 minutes by car. Thank you!!

El alojamiento es maravilloso, nos encantó todo. Todo es nuevo y fuimos los primeros huéspedes. Desde la villa se abre una vista increíble, especialmente hermosa al amanecer. La casa está totalmente equipada, tiene todo lo necesario para vivir y hasta más. La zona es muy buena, y se puede llegar en 10-15 minutos en coche a muchas playas. Gracias!!
