About this property
La Luxuria Executive Villa -**** HIGHEST RATED AND BEST DEAL IN THE AREA!! ****
Somewhere on the Nicoya Peninsula there is a tiny surf town where rock stars, supermodels and pro surfers come to play. This is a place where the sun shines a little brighter, friends laugh a little harder and life is a lot less serious.
This brilliant place is called Santa Teresa and it’s just far enough out of the way to keep the crowds out but close enough to paradise that it’s worth going an extra mile for.
We built a very special hilltop house here to entertain our friends and family. This is a very private place, just a kilometer up the hill from spectacular beaches, surf spots, bars and restaurants but guarded by a gatehouse and hidden by the dense rain forest that surrounds it.
Of course we share this space with the resident monkeys, parrots, toucans and all of our other beloved forest friends. Sometimes if we’re lucky, we get to watch the whales swim by in the turquoise ocean below with our morning coffee. What a life!
Whales and Dolphins: While not everyone likes to go fishing, it's worthwhile at least taking a boat tour of Cabo Blanco just south of Santa Teresa to view the migrating whales, dolphins, manta rays, turtles and a wide array of stunning sea life.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If you are planning on having a raging party here, save us all the trouble, and please don't rent this house, the power will be cut immediately, police will be called, and charges will be filed.

Amazing property- large, clean and brilliant view of the ocean as well as the jungle including many creatures. Excellent communication from owner, top notch housekeeping and very helpful concierge.
This was an amazing property and vacation all around. The balance between going into town and just relaxing at the top of Santa Teresa was perfect. The pool was phenomenal-so were the accommodations as a whole (bedrooms were very comfortable and spacious-kitchen was very well stocked). We’ve been to ST 5 times now and this is by far the best place we’ve stayed.

Thanks so much for the kind words John, hope to have you and your family back sometime!
We had a great stay at La Luxuria. The home was exactly as hoped and planned for. The discription and other reviews explain the house, location, and details well.
Our experience here was incredible! The property was so beautiful and clean! There were so many amenities- we never have stayed at such an amazing property on vacation- driveway is steep so 4x4 is needed- especially if it rains! We would definitely stay here again!!
La Luxuria exceeded our expectations! From the beautiful views to wildlife we saw so much! Beds were comfy, kitchen was fully stocked and everything was really clean! We met Laurie at check in and she was great with recommendations! We’d highly recommend!
Everything about our experience was amazing! We loved the house and the services provided! The view is absolutely beautiful! The house is exceptionally clean! The communication and check in process was great. The house was stocked with everything we could have possibly needed. Wonderful vacation!
Our stay was exactly what we hoped for and more. Plenty of space, relaxing views and a perfect pool for play and keeping cool. even our three teenagers were impressed - and that takes a miracle these day :-) It was a magical place to stay and we will return n our next trip to Costa Rica!
Beautiful house, very clean and well maintained. No problems with any anything while there. If you want a great ocean view in a quiet area with privacy La Luxuria would be the place. I highly recommend.
We come to Costa Rica often and stay in different towns and houses. La Luxuria is the only house that we have stayed in more than once. It is a slice of paradise and we will come here again. Everything is always perfect from the cleanliness to the accommodations. Our host was extremely helpful and answered any questions we had. Love this place 11/10.
We had a wonderful time! The villa is very private, surrounded by trees, short drive to the beach and a wonderful ocean view. The host and property manager were very responsive. We had no issues at all, our vacation was perfect. Highly recommend renting a AWD SUV, the hill to the get to the villa is very steep.
We all enjoyed the pool, very relaxing.
We will definitely come back.
The place is beautiful and the pictures don’t lie. That said there are a couple warnings. First, the property is located up a STEEP hillside. You will need a AWD or ATV to get up and down. Second, it’s in the jungle, there will be lizards, bugs and ants.That said, the property manager was awesome and recommended numerous excursions and restaurants — all of which were awesome.
This place was a great place to stay in Santa Teresa. The town is small but a very busy surf town and this place was just far enough and just close enough to be perfectly situated in the town. The home is as advertised. We saw monkeys, parrots and other exotic animals almost daily.
Highly recommend this place to anyone.
The owner and property manager were also very helpful and always returned our texts and calls promptly and efficiently.

Amazing house, wonderful staff
From the moment you pull up (the very steep hill) this place takes your breath away. The pool, landscaping and view all compete for top billing. The house is attractively furnished with every amenity. The housekeeper is unobtrusive and hard working, the concierge responsive to all questions and delightful to work with. Would return in a heartbeat!!!!

Thank you so much for your kind words Beth and I hope to have you come back sometime soon!
Beautiful property surrounded by the jungle with awesome views of the ocean. Road to get there is very steep. Definitely need a 4x4, but it’s worth it. The house is spacious, with AC in every bedroom. Kitchen is super functional. The pool was probably the best feature. We spent a lot of time in it. Felt safe the whole time. Great property managers.

Great stay
This was our family's 4th time to the area and our favorite villa. The location is perfect, right in the middle of Santa Teresa but high enough on the hill so that it is very private and quiet. The house is perfect, a great pool area and awesome outdoor spaces with beautiful views of the ocean. The concierge Laurie was so helpful, she helped us set up ziplining, horseback riding, and our ATV's for the week. We saw lots of wildlife at the house itself, including howler monkeys and capuchin monkeys. Thanks to Sanjiv for sharing his beautiful house with us! We can't wait to go back!

Great property, excellent views, great pool!
Laurie the property manager was very helpful on all questions we had about house, Santa Teresa recommendations and helped set up drop off of 4 wheelers (highly recommend)
The cleaning service was great for house and pool!
There were some electrical lighting issues but didn’t affect the trip experience and as stated in previous reviews need a AWD vehicle for steep hill to home
Overall a great trip and great property!
