Excellent Property
We had a wonderful vacation at this rental. We were three adults and had lots of space and privacy. There is a beautiful outside area with pool and various sitting areas where we spent most of our time enjoying the wildlife and birds. The communication with the host and property management was great. Host provided lots of information on the property and the location as well as information on tours available and the property management was very responsive regarding any questions. We would definitely stay at this property again.

Wonderful stay in Esterillos
The villa was exactly as portrayed in the pictures on vrbo. It was an ideal location for our family. The kids loved the pool. There were lots of bird sightings including scarlet macaws, toucans and animal life. The service from the management team was excellent as was the communication from the host. The beach and restaurants were just a few minutes away and we had all the privacy in the world. We highly recommend this place.

Am enchanting stay!
We went to Esterillos with 2 children’s ( 0and 3) and the grandparents. The house was just perfect with the 2 bedrooms downstairs with their own complete bathroom + the big bedroom upstairs. It is fairly accessible with any vehicule, in a very secure community. A/C in every room, very clean, and with anything you would need in the kitchen. What we enjoyed the most is the back deck with the pool from where we could sit and enjoy the view of the forest and even watch the monkeys jump from tree to tree. It is located within 10 minutes of the beach (for real) and there are a few good restaurants that we liked to go within this 10 minutes range too.The property manager was very responsive, as well as Derek and Laura who answered all My questions. We are already recommending this house to our family and friends and would go back anytime.

First trip to Costa Rica
I can’t say enough about this home and location! Rent a car and explore Costa Rica the right way. So much to do and explore we could have stayed another week, easily and wish we could have! The beaches super close with great surf and restaurants too many to try. The people were too nice and the property management team always checked on us to make sure we were have a great time. They even helped book a couple things for us. 10/10 recommend staying here, we WILL be back! Pura Vida!

Amazing Property
Such a wonderful place to relax! A quick 5ish minute drive to a lovely beach with the property itself being nestled in a secure area in the jungle. We were a group of 5 with 2 couples and a child. The house was big and we were all able to have our own space and our own bathrooms. Loved the pool and sitting out on the deck throughout the day. Wouldn’t hesitate to return!
