Wonderful views, privacy, and best of all, a family of howler monkeys who came down to feed in the trees next to the house. We also saw toucans and spider monkeys while we relaxed by the pool. Estilo de Vidal is in a great location to enjoy the area of Ojochal. We had a memorable week.
Owner response:The howler monkeys often seem to enjoy hanging out in the trees beside the pool. I think they are as interested in us as we are in them. If they bed down for the evening there then it makes for an entertaining but early start to the day!
Recommended for:Sightseeing, families with young children, pet owners, age 55+, romantic getaway, adventure seekers.

We just returned from spending 4 wonderful weeks at Estilo de Vida. The casa is completely private, surrounded by rainforest, with a lovely view of the ocean and also the mountains. The house itself is quite attractive and we felt very secure there. We were glad to have the free wifi service to keep in touch with family. On our arrival, we were greeted by flocks of parrots, the toucans, and of course howler monkeys...the next day white-faced monkeys paid a visit. Our day usually started, a cup of fresh Costa Rican coffee in hand, by the pool, listening to the dozens of bird calls and watching the gorgeous Morpho butterfly float past. We saw trogons, aracaris, euphonias, honeycreepers and many more beautiful birds right on the property. Being lovers of nature we spent the four weeks soaking up the surrounding natural beauty. We visited several beaches nearby and also a couple of refreshing waterfalls. There are about a dozen first-class restaurants within a 15 min drive. If you are looking for privacy surrounded by natural beauty with easy access to nearby beaches, restaurants, grocery stores, etc. then we would highly recommend Estilo de Vida.
Owner response:Thanks very much for the kind words and for the fantastic pictures that you got while you were there.
