We had an amazing trip and could not have stayed at a better property! The views were gorgeous, the staff was so helpful and the property has beautiful waterfalls that are not a hard hike to get to. Wish we could have stayed longer, but we’ll definitely be back and for a longer stay next time!

Thank you for your kind words, it was a pleasure to have your group here at the villa. Next time we hope to see you in the dry season when the amazing Emerald Canyon is accessible. Esteban will be happy to guide you up river to the waterfall there - the secret Abysmo de Baru. Pura Vuda!

Incredibly beautiful property with extensive grounds. Great place to enjoy a personal Costa Rican holiday. Hike about to experience their own lush waterfalls or just chill poolside then view a spectacular sunset. The varied rooms are spacious, well-maintained and appointed. From early morning with a tasty breakfast, the staff is available to assist you in making your plans for another enjoyable day onsite or with numerous options for touring nearby. Truly a memorable place to stay !

We have stayed at the beach on previous trips to Costa Rica, but we love the mountains even more—especially the cool, refreshing mornings. This beautiful property was the perfect place to experience Costa Rica’s tranquility and natural beauty!Our group had an amazing stay at this stunning villa. The views from the pool area are breathtaking, especially just after sunrise. The property offers wonderful privacy and peaceful surroundings, making it ideal for a large group.A huge thank-you to the wonderful staff, whose thoughtful touches made our stay special. Esteban had coffee ready each morning and prepared delicious breakfasts featuring traditional Costa Rican dishes, including eggs, rice, beans, and plantains. One morning, he even surprised us with freshly baked bagels! Sylvia kept the house spotless and even cleaned my muddy boots after a day of hiking. Their warmth, hospitality, and attention to detail made us feel truly cared for.Birdwatchers in our group were amazed by the variety of birds spotted around the main house. Two nearby waterfalls also make for an enjoyable hike. If you venture all the way down to the river and back, be prepared for a good workout, as the roads and trails are quite steep!Keep in mind: the property is located well down a gravel road from the main highway, as described in the listing, and a four-wheel-drive vehicle is essential. However, the drive is well worth it for the peace, privacy, and incredible natural surroundings.

Hey Brian and Neil, Thanks for joining us at the property again. It was a great pleasure to meet your group. It was a pleasure for Pablo and the staff to look after you during your stay. I'm glad to hear that there were plenty of bird sightings and I know your group thought the insect sightings were amazing as well. I hope you all can join us again next year. Pura Vida! Stephen

First and foremost, Esteban is heaven sent. He is the absolute best. The property was everything we wanted it to be plus more. The views were breathtaking, and although we left the property we had everything we needed plus more right at the property. The lady who prepared the food was also amazing along with the property owner. Everyone took very good care of us, and I highly recommend this property. *****
