Loved the house! We went to celebrate my dad's 60th birthday and had a great time. It's spacious and well equipped. Excellent location, close to several beaches, supermarkets, restaurants, etc. Chloe let us check in early and check out late, and her communication and willingness to help us when we needed it was 100%. I definitely recommend her, and we'll be back!

Our family of five had the pleasure of staying at Casa Exotica in February 2024, and it was nothing short of amazing. On arrival, we were greeted with a villa that surpassed all our expectations – it was not only impeccably clean but also surrounded by breathtaking views and stunning architecture that beautifully framed the 360-degree scenery. We loved the swimming pool and ping pong table and the rooftop area was perfect for unwinding and enjoying the mesmerizing sunsets. We were fortunate to spot monkeys, lizards, iguanas, and a variety of birds, including toucans and macaws on the property. Chloe went above and beyond to ensure our stay was extraordinary. From taking care of our every need to organizing thrilling excursions like zip-lining, a catamaran trip to Tortuga Island, horseback riding, and a tour of Manuel Antonio, she made sure we experienced the best of what the area had to offer. Our stay was truly a trip of a lifetime, and we will forever cherish our Pura Vida memories!

The house is extremely large and the photographs do not truly show the beauty of the house! It is equipped with everything and the service was excellent.

We've been to this area about 10 times and have never rented a house up on the hill. This property was wonderful and we would stay there again in a heartbeat. The property was beautiful and peaceful, but located close to the restaurants, grocery and shops. We woke up to the sounds of birds and at night enjoyed the Scarlet Mccaws in the almond trees. The roof is amazing! The pool and ping pong were fun. Chloe was very responsive and helpful. We're already planning our next trip back.
