I have taken many trips to Costa Rica and I must say this house and service tops it all. I want to say thank you to Elizabeth for doing a wonderful job on this property as well as the professional courtesy from her and her staff. Thank you Fatima and your peer for making us feel like Kings. These wonderful ladies ladies know how to throw down in the kitchen. I am talking restaurant style cooking, 3 course meal and all. They were so great we had to give them gratuity that made them feel like it was Christmas. The service was top notch A++++ all the way. I recommend this place to guys that want to get away and live it up to a Romantic get away or just a family getaway. Each room is setup as if you are in a 5star hotel. A fridge in your room with a mini bar, to your private bathroom, TV etc. The pool and Jacuzzi was the bomb. I took the honor of taking some more detailed pictures of the house cause it was that great so enjoy and don't hesitate to book this house, money well spent, especially going in a group and splitting it down the middle.

I must say my stay at this villa was fantastic. This is one of the best vacations I have yet to expereince and I have been on plenty. I didnt want to leave! First I would like to start off with the home itself. It is exactly like the pictures. The villa is very spacious and was more than enough room for the 6 of us that traveled stayed their. The place is clean and make you feel like you are at home. The staff is wonderfull and very generous. Breakfast was cooked for our group each morning by the time we awakend and dinner was served as soon as we returned to the ViIlla from our long fulfilled days, the staff even packed lunches for us so we wouldnt have to spend money on food while out touring Costa Rica. Elizabeth set us up with a driver that was wonderful and stayed with us the whole time we were out and about traveling from city to city. He picked each party up from airport at check in and made sure we made it to the airport in a timely manner to depart. Elizabeth checked in with us from time to time to make sure our stay was everything a person can ask for. I would highly reccomend this spot to stay at while vacationing in Costa Rica!!!!!!!!!!!!

Owner response:Thank You Cassie, for us it is a pleasure to serve and to help our Guests see the best that Costa Rica has to offer. I enjoyed organizing the trips for your group. Your are a great group of friends. I hope you have good pictures of the comparsa "Samba" dancers that came to the house in celebration of your stay in Costa Rica. Thank you so much for staying at the house and for visiting Costa Rica. Warm Regards, Elizabeth

well, its hard to start this review because everything was picture perfect.the owner made sure our entire party was OK. (thank you so much elizabeth, i had so much fun). the staff was absolutely the sweetest, very humble and honest. they cooked everyday and that also was very good. if you love good customer service and excellent hospitality don't think twice. this villa is definitely the place to stay. i felt like i was home, i loved it. we also had a driver for all of our events, elizebeth referred him. he also was on time everyday, he stayed with us and made sure we were safe. none of us speak Spanish so he was a good translator. i/we would stay back there at the drop of a dime. actually we are thinking about coming back next year with the kids this time. truly as im writing this i cannot think of enough words to express the beauty of this villa. just do it....

If you are thinking about visiting and don't want to have to worry about a thing, then stay here.Thank you Elizabeth and Keith for making our stay so wonderful and being so accommodating! Already looking forward to staying with you again!!

I highly recommend this property for anyone planning a trip to the San Jose area, especially for large groups. The owner was very resourceful both prior to, and during our stay, and the property staff was very helpful as well. The property was exactly as described which was a huge relief. We had a group of 6, so everyone had their own room and their own bathroom, allowing everyone to have a lot of privacy. The accommodations were great, and the property is close to the airport, stores, and restaurants. It was a great experience overall, and I would definitely recommend. Book with confidence.

My friends and I recently enjoyed a great vacation @ this very nice property in Cariari. I think there's always a little skepticism for anyone traveling abroad, but let me assure you if you decide to stay at this property you will be VERY satisfied when you arrive. The staff was great. The proprietor was very kind and extremely resourceful for our vacation in Costa Rica. If you are traveling with a group, I highly recommend this property.
