About this property

Casa Montaña - Majestic Ocean Views at Dominical Hills

From coffee at sunrise to champagne at sunset, Casa Montaña delivers comfort,
serenity and the most spectacular ocean views in the area. Though excellent activities, including beaches and waterfalls, are just moments away, you may find it hard to leave the house.

A great room (kitchen/dining/living/television), five bedrooms, four-and-a-half baths (with locally sourced, botanical toiletries), and a bonus sitting room make your stay comfortable, with plenty of space to spread out. Outside, among the professionally maintained landscaping, are a pool area, and a gazebo with its own grill, refrigerator, sink, dining table and hammock. Birds, butterflies and hummingbirds appear with charming regularity – spot a spectacular blue Morpho butterfly for extra luck. Toads, lizards and other small animals wander the property.

Casa Montaña boasts the area’s best concierge, Alex, who is available to answer
questions and book activities from the moment you choose Casa Montaña. Alex is
friendly, knowledgeable and professional. He speaks excellent English and will arrange for your initial grocery shopping, private transportation, private chef service, tours and activities. Guests invariably say his services, along with superb cleaning provided by Jose and Maricel during their stay, made Casa Montaña a true paradise.

Casa Montaña is located fifteen minutes up a scenic mountain road from Dominical, a must-visit beach town with dining, grocery shopping, souvenir browsing, and surfing lessons.

The owners, conscious of the responsibility of owning a home in a different country, donate 10% of rental income to local charitable causes. Coffee to champagne, and everything between, you’ll love Casa Montaña!

We spent 43 fantastic days there. We had our kids and their families come and stay over the holiday. The house and yard were large enough to give us our own space and not feel crowded. The house is close enough to places if we felt like going out. I would definitely come back! Can’t say enough about Alex, Jose & Shirley to keep things running smoothly

Casa Montana is a gem! We stayed there for 8 nights and it is such a beautiful house! We were a family of 4, 2 elderly parents. Since we have been to CR previously, we knew what to expect (driving up an unpaved mountain road in a 4x4). Once we got to the house, the view is breathtaking! You can’t describe it & pictures don’t do it justice!The house is well thought out & well maintained, kitchen is well stocked and the pool is amazing - if you don’t want to leave the house, you don’t have to! The patio is set-up with a grill, sink and fridge (which is so wonderful for when you want to grill).Everyday, toucans were around the house and we even had macaws flying. It was great to see all the butterflies and wildlife around the gardens & house.Alex is a great help with whatever you need and is a great resource. He was very helpful while we stayed there.We went to Uvita beach, Hermosa beach, Dominicalito & Dominical beach (where we were able to ride the waves). We did a cocoa tour in Playa Hermosa which was the best cocoa tour we ever had. We also took the truck tour to get to Nauyaca waterfall. Another day, we went to the Uvita waterfall-a favorite spot for us. We went to an Eco Termales (about 40min away from the house) on someone’s property and it was great.But after every activity, we looked forward to return back to the house, relax, enjoy the pool and the views. It is such paradise & we can’t wait to return and stay at beautiful Casa Montana!

Breath-taking mountain top retreat

This house did not disappoint. The layout was spacious enough to be comfortable for our family of 11. This mountain-top retreat was a great location to allow us to experience various adventures such as surfing, ziplining, sport fishing, snorkeling, and exploring Manuel Antonio National Park. We loved visiting Dominical as well.Two things to note: (1) You need a 4x4 for the drive up the mountain; (2) There are power outages at times.PS. The property manager, Alex, was amazing to work with and responded quickly to every question.The views of the ocean and the mountain are amazing. The sunrise is beautiful as it comes over the mountains. We loved birds visiting daily as well.

Mountain Top Paradise

Neither pictures nor words can fully describe how amazing Casa Montana is. From the spacious rooms and wide-opening doors to the stunning outdoors, the house has everything we could have ever needed. The views from every room overlooking the water and mountains were stunning. We loved waking up to the sunrise and watching the parrots and toucans flying around. One of the best parts was Alex, who helped set up amazing excursions for our group from guided tours to private chef cooked meals. The ease of working with Alex to help elevate our vacation was magical. We can't wait to find a time to head to Casa Montana again!

Spectacular

Our stay at Casa Montana was extraordinary. The house is absolutely beautiful and faultless. Each bedroom is perfectly appointed. The kitchen is really well set up with equipment and everything you could need to cook to your hearts content. And the view…absolutely stunning. Our stay was made all the more perfect by the incredible cleaning service (such a treat!!) and help from Alex throughout and before the stay. We booked the chef service twice during the week and it was incredible. I would highly recommend this house and all it has to offer. We came back fully rested and longing to go back.

Paradise!

This is a beautiful and well-appointed house surrounded by gorgeous flora and fauna, with great indoor and outdoor spaces to enjoy. There is a toad who loves to hang by the pool. Wonderful birds, including green parrots who are your wake-up call. There were three couples on our trip, and there always was plenty of room to gather or to spend alone time. It also would be perfect for a family. The closest town, Dominical, is adorable, with good food and a fair number of shops. The amazing concierge, Alex, is on call to schedule activities, provide information, and just plain cater to your needs. Very, very highly recommended!

Luxury house with spectacular views

My family of five loved Casa Montana. The spectacular views and luxury accommodations are apparent from the photos. Here are a few details not apparent in the photos: The mattresses are very comfortable. We slept great! We really appreciated the elevation. We loved the beaches around Domincal (especially Playa Hermosa), but it was so nice to return to the house in the afternoon and feel the cooler air. My kids loved the hammocks--they spent hours reading in them--and the pool. The outdoor furniture is very comfortable. We also enjoyed the outdoor showers. Frank was very responsive to our queries, and check-in was very easy. All-in-all a great stay.

Incredible! The home is absolutely beautiful and the views are amazing. The house was immaculate, the grounds and the landscaping were perfect, and the pool was exceptionally clean. The kitchen was well appointed, and the TV and Wi-Fi were amazing. Alex, the concierge and home manager, was absolutely perfect! Whatever Alex recommends, and whoever he chooses for you for tours, just do it! We ate at amazing restaurants, we saw beautiful animals at Manuel Antonio, the beaches were beautiful, and the Canos Island snorkel tour was great. While at the home, and in the pool, we enjoyed watching the toucans and parrots flying over us. We highly recommend this property and we will definitely be back.

Paradise In Costa Rica

From the moment we landed in Quepos and Alex met us with our rental car the trip was amazing. The house is amazing and serves the needs of the family brilliantly. The kitchens - indoor and outdoor had everything we needed to serve 11 people daily. This house has everything you need to accommodate a family vacation. Having the washer/dryer option was fantastic as well, the pool is amazing and the decks off each bedroom provide you with an outdoor option to read books, have a drink, or just put your feet up. The outdoor shower option was great for washing off after a day at the beach or hiking through the rainforest. The amenities are top notch and the house manager - Alex is wonderful. His quick response to any question, and his ability to book adventures, rent a car, or give you suggestions on where to go for meals, adventures, or trips, are outstanding. The grounds are beautiful and the birds that come and visit each day are spectacular Casa Montana` is a special place and one you won't regret renting for a stay in Costa Rica

Amazing Domenical Retreat

This spacious and beautiful property has tons of room and amenities, including decks and an infinity pool with gorgeous views of the valley and ocean, complete with phenomenal sunsets. The pictures are true to life; the beds are comfy and the bathrooms excellent. Alex, the concierge, is extremely nice and responsive and accommodating. He helped us plan some super activities, with something for everyone. He also coordinates cleaning and any required repairs through a sweet local guy named Jose. You'll see green parrots and toucans and toads and lots of other creatures--and hear them, too! We saw a coati and iguanas on the road as well--and you might see monkeys around. I can't say enough about Casa Montana, Alex, and the funky and fun village of Domenical down the hill. The location is ideal for exploring north and south along the Central Pacific coast. This is a five-star property, for sure!

Beautiful house with a spectacular view!

Our family of 8 (four teens, four adults) closed out 2022 in style at this wonderful vacation home. The pictures can't possibly due the view(s) justice - it's even more beautiful than you can imagine. The house is well-equipped and had everything our family needed for the week. There was even local coffee and chocolates there to enjoy when we arrived. Alex, the concierge, made the check-in process easy and guided us to the home, which is up a very, very steep gravel road. He arranged whitewater rafting and ziplining outings as well as a private chef - higly recommend all of these! He checked in throughout our stay to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. We loved being close to the cute town of Dominical, which was fun but didn't feel too crowded at all. We liked being able to explore a variety of beaches and waterfalls in the area. Highly recommend this beautiful vacation house as a home base for exploring or for simply relaxing by the pool and enjoying the views.

Paradise !

Casa Montaña was everything we had hoped it would be. Gorgeous panoramic views, amazing sunsets, and just a very peaceful atmosphere. We had complete privacy with no neighbors in sight, but we were only 10 minutes away from gorgeous beaches, great excursions, and fantastic restaurants. The wildlife, including several toucans, were so fun to watch from the pool and balcony. Frank was very responsive and connected us to Alex, the concierge for the house. Alex arranged a private chef service (which was INCREDIBLE), our car rental, and even our tours and surf lessons. He was even kind enough to take a grocery order for us and have the house stocked with food upon our arrival! As for the house, you can tell it's brand new and beautiful constructed. It was immaculate upon check-in, and Alex arranged for housekeeping service that didn't interfere with our stay. All 5 bedrooms had an ocean view, so there was no fighting amongst family members on which room they were assigned. We are definitely going to make another trip to this house.

What a wonderful home away from home!

Our recent stay at Casa Montana was absolutely wonderful! We were a group of 7(5 adults and 2 children) and this house fit the needs for everyone. Plenty of bedrooms, all with incredible views. Plenty of living space and everything you could ever need at the top of the mountain. Upon arrival to the area, Alexander met us at a local grocery store and led us up the mountain. I will be honest, it was a rough ride and I am so glad we had 4x4 vehicles. We were late arriving so it was dark and had rained, so we were prepared and expected it to be rough drive but Alexander was patient and did a fantastic getting us up to the house and showing us the home. He answered any questions we had and stayed a bit longer trying to fix the internet that wasn’t working. When he couldn’t get it working, he had someone out first thing the next day to fix it. Overall, he provided fantastic service during our entire stay and truly was a great help! The home is just as beautiful, if not more beautiful than the pictures. The views are stunning and made it so easy to relax and enjoy the second half of our stay in Costa Rica. We really appreciate you sharing your beautiful home with us! Pura Vida!

AMAZING !!!

Everything was perfect from start to finish!!! The house is simply magnificent, the photos do not do the property justice, it's so beautiful!!! On the pictures it's beautiful, but in real life it's next level!!!The view of the mountains and the ocean is breathtaking!!! The house is very very clean and a person comes to do the housekeeping every 2 days. The house is equipped with everything to cook and all the amenities!!! The host is super welcoming and courteous as well as Alex the concierge gives a service outstanding throughout the stay!!!Alex came to join us on the way to escort us to the Villa to show us around the place when we arrived!Alex helped us throughout the stay to book activities and advise so that we have the best travel experience in Costa Rica. He responds to all our texts very quickly. The house is super big and it's super quiet from the top of the mountain but very close to everything for activities in Dominical. (15 min) I recommend everyone to stay at this magnificent villa!!! I also recommend renting a 4x4 vehicle because the side to go up to the villa is not paved but with a 4x4 it's easy!!! In summary we loved our stay and you can book this property without any fear!!! 100/100

Breathtaking

The Ride to the House was easy to make Even we hadnt 4x4 and Even the House is really high When we enter the Gate we saw how huge the House is and When we get in and explore the Whole House we had no words. It was breathtaking. So lightfull, Every room with an amazing view to the beaches around. The silence of this spot is incredible. You only hear the birds ( tucan, caracara and so on) the frogs and sometimes howler monkeys. My Favorit Place was the bathtube it was amazing. The Favorit Place of my 5 year Old son was the amazing infinity pool and the best place for my husband was the barbacue weber Grill Outside to make the Fish catched By himself. Even if the House and it’s view was so amazing That we dont Wanted to leave it we visited eco chantal waterfalls and the nauyaca waterfalls and we saw a lot of animals in the hacienda baru and its beach. There is a good wifi , big television and the Equipment of the kitchen was better than at Home. Everything is Made of high quality materials it is unbelivable. Not to forget : the Concierge Alex is fabolous and helped us with any questions and josé was an Amazing house Service guy , everything was really clean. We had a wonderful time in this house and we felt blessed that we find it on vrbo. Thank you Frank for renting your house we will come back, thats for sure.

Rejuvenating

The site is peaceful and relaxing with the opportunity to have the vacation of your choice. We spent some days just at the house, enjoying the views, pool and the flora and fauna on site. Other days can be out and around going to waterfalls, National Parks, local beaches all to ourselves, with a wide variety of places to eat when out. We had a wonderful meal made at the Casa, the menu was sent to us ahead of time, we made our choices and then the Chef and sous chef arrived early enough to prep, cook and serve the meal at the requested time. Then they did all the clean up. We kept the leftovers for later in the week. We did cook for ourselves as well which I really liked. Shopping locally was easy. Alex was the concierge and was gracious, thoughtful and always helpful. From helping us get a driver for the trip from San Jose, to car rental there in Dominical, to a marvelous guide for bird watching, his knowledge of the area and finding reputable help is excellent. The house is spacious and allows everyone a place to gather, together or to find some personal space. There is Wi-Fi which worked well. There is also Streaming options but honestly there are better things to do there. We spent time in February and it was sunny every day. Truly a great time to relax and rejuvenate. My heartfelt thank you to the Host.

Like New, 5 Star home. Casa Montana was a dream come true. We met other travelers who had rented a condo near Quepos/Manuel Antonio National Park for the same price, with half the value. Most accommodations in that area are small and just a tourist trap. For the price, this home was HUGE, like new, very high end, and close to everything. Yes, you had to drive 20-30 minutes to do most of the tours, but the drive was easy. Locally...Dominical was 5-10 minutes away with great restaurants, a wonderful coffee shop(Cafe Delicias), several markets for groceries, and much more. This house allows your family to have plenty of space, a spectacular view, and the best bang for your buck in the area. Don't know the area, or how to go about booking excursions....MEET ALEX, Your Concierge. Alex gave advice, booked our excursions, and INSTANTLY replied to EVERY question we had. You will not find help like this staying anywhere else. It was like having our own personal tour guide. We had never been to Costa Rica. Without Alex, our trip would not have been the same. Great guy, and wonderful concierge. Do not miss going to Portasol waterfall(listed as Portasol Living in Google). It's kind of a locals hidden secret and the best waterfall in the area. We went by tour the first time. After that, we visited every afternoon with our kids. Most afternoons we were there with the locals or even had the whole place to ourselves. Highlight of our trip. Completely safe

The size of the house coupled with Alex’s services truly make Casa Montaña unique in the best of ways. You were all fantastic guests, and you are welcome back any time. We hope to see you soon!

What makes this property unique
