This house was great for our two family’s with 6 adults 2 teens and a 10 year old. It was clean, spacious, and the set up was great for us. Would definitely stay again!
Very happy with our stay at Villa Mystique. Home was well stocked with the essentials and Yami was kind and helpful. Open and airy layout with great spaces for groups. Outdoor seating was abundant and pool was a must-have. Views were extraordinary. Would stay here again.
Our stay was fantastic. The house was clean, spacious, and well-maintained. All the amenities were up to date, and the pool was great. The housekeeping and maintenance teams were excellent and very responsive. The property manager, Claire, was also very good with communication and quick to respond.One recommendation is to have a 4x4 vehicle, as the house sits on a cliff and the climb can be challenging for smaller vehicles. However, the location is very safe and very convenient to Tamarindo Beach. There are plenty of grocery options nearby and many restaurants in Tamarindo as well.If you want a peaceful stay away from the hustle and bustle of Tamarindo, this is a perfect place. One other pleasant surprise was the wildlife—we saw monkeys in the trees and many unique birds. The wildlife was never a bother.I highly recommend this house for anyone visiting the Tamarindo area in Costa Rica.
If you want a place to go to relax and be away from all the hubbub this place is perfect. The pictures do not do it justice one of the most gorgeous places I’ve ever stayed
It was a great place for a family. A big thank you for the services offert at the home. All the stuff needed to pass a good day at the beach was there!
The view was spectacular and the sunset too!
We will be back for sure!

Thank you Melissa!
I have asked each one of your group and they all had the best time here. It was a pleasure to have you all and a joy to receive younger children too. The girls were so thrilled with their trundle beds!
Your are welcome back anytime.
Very great place. Enjoyed the deck overseeing the trees and mountains for yoga and relaxing. It was great having Yami there each day to answer any questions, help with laundry, breakfast and overall keeping the house clean. Last 200 yards of road getting to house is steep but after a couple of days didn’t seem that bad.
We had a wonderful stay for a week at Villa Mystique! It was amazing waking up in the beautiful surroundings and the kids loved the pool! Yami and Wilder were very discreet and lovely! The traditional breakfast she made for us one morning was delicious! Claire was also a pleasure to deal with and very responsive. The house had all the amenities and things we needed for a stress free and relaxing stay! Would highly recommend!
This was truly a fantastic vacation. The views were amazing, and howler monkey were around almost everyday. The property was very spacious and wide open so that all guest could spread out and enjoy their own space. Yani and Wilder did a great job of taking care of the property, and Claire was very prompt at answering any questions we had. One important note, a 4x4 vehicle is definitely needed to access this property
This property is stunning. The layout and floor plan really celebrates the outdoor space - and this is where this vacation home knocks it out of the ballpark. Monkeys, expansive views, the pool, wonderful sounds of nature. The interior is great as well with a spacious kitchen and three bedrooms that all can qualify as master bedrooms. The icing on the cake are the two caretakers and the property manager who took wonderful care of us during our stay.
I really can't put into words how wonderful this property is. It is indeed quite a drive off the beaten path (in a 4x4) vehicle, but it's worth it! The home is pristine and massive. Our family of 6 fit in with extra room. The pool is amazing and the views are wonderful. The daily help couldn't be kinder and more respectful. We hope to go back again.
My family and I loved everything about this home. It was clean and beautiful with very comfortable beds and a simply gorgeous pool with amazing views. Claire and staff was there to greet us when we arrived and was very helpful with suggestions on where to eat locally. The driveway is on a VERY steep hill and only experienced drivers can/should navigate this. Other than that, the house is centrally located to most activities and I highly recommend this house.
We spent 3 nights at the villa. Two families with teens. The Villa is amazing in terms of amenities and views. The outdoor living space feels like something you would expect at a resort with the thatched roof. Plenty of space and can’t think of anything we needed that they didn’t have in terms of cooking supplies (pans, cutlery, bowls, etc)
Not much in terms of wildlife except for birds but sounds and sights were wonderful.
4X4 definitely a must and get food/supplies before arriving as town is close but still 30 min round trip.
Would highly recommend
Would give it 6 stars if I could. The property is stunning and offers every comfort we could have desired. The pool, outdoor seating, kitchen, bedrooms… all of them met or exceeded our expectations in every way. Nammy and Wilder are available but very discreet and able to help with any household need. It is out of the way (20min from Tamarindo) and does require a true 4WD vehicle for the final 400meters. If you desire privacy, peace and quiet, and easy access to beaches if wanted, Villa Kanda is the place. This is a slice of heaven and we are already planning our return!
The property itself is immaculate. It was much more than we expected. Yami was lovely and discreet. The only frustrating bit was the location and travelling in and out of town to get to the property as it was a little far from any amenities and required 4x4 for the very steep mountain side. If you plan to stay at the villa most of the time, this is the perfect spot for you. It is very challenging to get an uber or taxi willing to come out to the property either because it’s too far or they don’t have 4x4. So be prepared to drive everywhere yourself or spend a good chunk of money to hire a personal driver with 4x4. Beyond the transportation, this property is so so worth it! Had a great time!

Heaven on earth
There are truly no words to describe our stay at the villa. It was honestly so surreal - it really felt like heaven on earth. Caroline was nothing short of welcoming, friendly, and supportive; the maid and gardener were nothing short of helpful and professional; and the house was nothing short of perfect. It was all 100% better than we anticipated and trust me when I say that we were already anticipating it to be perfect. Words can not describe how unimaginably unreal (in the best way possible, like a dream come true) our stay and trip was. It was honestly the best birthday getaway ever!
Thank you so much to the owner for allowing us the pleasure of calling your beautiful home our own for 5 days, thank you to Caroline for your amazing friendliness and assistance throughout this entire process, and thank you to the maid and gardener for making sure we were able to truly get the most out of our stay.
P.S. we left a unicorn float for the owner and future guests to enjoy as a way to symbolize how magical our stay was!!
Pura vida!

Dear Alexandra,
Thank you for your incredible review! Even though your stay was short, it seems that you have enjoyed every single moment at the house for this special event of yours. And the unicorns look amazing in the pool, thank you sooo much!!
We can't wait to receive you and your friends next year.
Best,
Caroline
This house is really amazing. Beautiful pool, monkeys climbing in the trees, great views. Yami comes each morning and straightens up and makes the beds. We were a group of 4 adults and 7 kids and there was plenty of space and we had an amazing time.
While the house is really awesome, just a few things to know -
1. You need a 4 wheel drive vehicle to get to the house.
2. The bathrooms/showers are in the bedrooms and the bathrooms are partially open to the room, so when kids were showering in the master bedrooms, we couldnt also be in the rooms.
3. The house has a lot of outdoor living space. The kitchen is indoors but opens to the outdoors (again, really beautiful), but it can get hot in the kitchen since it doesnt have air conditioning.
4. We brought in a yoga instructor and also masseuses and it was a lot of fun.
5. You can find the monkeys in the trees early morning over the overlook.
Again, a really great house - would definitely stay again!

Sensational home
This house is stunning, situated on a hill overlooking a beautiful vista of rolling hills and the Pacific Ocean on the horizon. Although quiet and tranquil, the house Is within a 20 min drive of some incredible beaches and the bustling resort town of Tamarindo. The pictures on this website as well on its own website are pretty great but it's hard to describe just how beautiful and first-class place is. The kitchen is extremely well appointed and finishes and frnishings throughout the house are tasteful. In particular, the pool and pool area, and especially the outdoor living room, were wonderful. We spent most of our time at the house in the outdoor room: eating meals, reading, swimming. Just amazing.
One of the nicest aspects of the rental is that the owner has arranged for great staffing. Jamileth, the housekeeper, was there every day and kept the place spotlessly clean and also washed all of our laundry. Wilder kept the grounds in wonderful shape.
The communications with Caroline, the manager, were excellent. She made a great referral for surfing lessons.
All in all, we have rented a number of houses over the years and this place is our favorite. Salud.

Thank you very much for your appreciation of Villa Kanda. It is our pleasure to see happy guests at the end of their stay telling us about their week here. Please come back any time!
Best to the 4 of you.
Nous avons adoré la Villa Mystique. Les hôtes sont super disponibles et très sympathiques en plus d’un endroit paradisiaque. Nous étions 2 familles de 4 et n’avons manqué de rien. Nous conseillons à tous!
Het huis is in het echt nog zoveel mooier en fijner als op de foto's. Wat een liefde en aandacht is er in alle details gaan zitten. Een heerlijke plek, met een fenomenaal uitzicht. ' s Ochtends bij het ontbijt aan de prachtige tafel slingert er een familie apen door de bomen. Yami en Wilder zorgen elke dag voor een heerlijk schoon huis en ze zijn tegelijkertijd super in het geven van de ruimte en het bieden van privacy. Het is echt een zenhuis, met een platform waar je geweldig op kunt mediteren en een groot terras voor yoga. Op de vogels en apen na hoor je helemaal niets. Het huis is 20 minuutjes van het gezellige Tamarindo, met een prachtig strand en veel restaurantjes. Op een paar kilometer zit een supermarkt. Kortom; we hebben zelden zo'n geweldig huis meegemaakt. Dit huis kun je met een heel gerust hart boeken.
