My family and I had such a lovely week at the property in August. Olivier couldn’t have been more helpful and for minor issues that came up, he worked to resolve straight away. The property itself is well maintained, very spacious and with the most incredible views. Our highlight was one afternoon when 50 monkeys decided to have a play in the trees next to the property whilst we watched on from the balcony!

We had the best stay! The views from the main level are incredible, and we saw toucans, monkeys, macaws, and various other animals throughout our stay. The pool is amazing too. Natalia was incredibly helpful and responsive - be sure to use her to make local reservations, as she knows the best companies and gets discounts!

Our extended family stayed at this amazing property and loved every minute! Every morning we cooked breakfast at the house and ate on the decks. Every afternoon was pool time -- with a view! Natalia was super responsive and very helpful! We LOVED El Salto and did not want to leave!

Start with the views from every room, gorgeous. Our host, Naty coordinated initial groceries and maid service throughout the week with laundry which was a huge plus. The pool was spectacular and all 10 guests had the perfect amount of space. Couldn’t have been any more perfect for our family celebration.

I can’t say enough good things about our stay at Casa El Salto! We flew into San Jose. Natalia arranged our transportation to the house. The 3 hour drive was all worth it when we arrived at the house and saw the view from the pool! What a dream! Bring binoculars, we had fun sitting in the pool and watching toucans and macaws. We never saw monkeys or sloths at the house though. Natalia made our trip a breeze, she booked our excursions…we went ziplining, waterfall repelling, on a boat through the mangroves, to the national park, and hiked to and swam in waterfalls. She arranged taxis and gave us restaurant recommendations…we liked Soda Sanchez, and Agua Azul. We ordered pizza from Ninos, it wasn’t our favorite but they were amazing to deliver to the house during a torrential downpour with lighting! It was magical to come back to the house each day and find that Tamara had cleaned and done our laundry!!! If I could’ve brought the mattress in the master bedroom home with me I would have! I slept better there than I do at home! I will forever be dreaming about this beautiful house and our magical week in Costa Rica!

Natalia the house manager was a GEM! Chef Lutz was amazing. Had a massage with Chef Lutz's assistant, it was amazing as well and so convenient she came to the house. The house was perfect for our group. Beautiful views and got to see wildlife everyday. Would definitely come back for another stay and do it all over again. The only different thing we'd do is instead of a car transport from the airport we would take the flight from San Jose to Quepos.

Walking in the front door was like walking into a dream! Oli, the owner, welcomed us at the door. Through out our stay, he was always available for questions, and recommendations. The house is beautiful, as is the view. The best beach and many adventures are minutes away. We loved the birds, the pool, the beds, and the well provisioned kitchen. Oli thought of everything. If you have a chance, book it! Enjoy!

Beautiful villa with an amazing host. We lost my daughter’s necklace down the sink and while we were gone on an excursion the host came to the house and found the necklace for us. We are so grateful and had the most amazing experience in the most beautiful home. We will definitely be coming back!

Our trip to Costa Rica exceeded our expectations. We were 4 adults and 3 children. The house was immaculate, comfortable, and had stunning views. The pool was great for the kids and lounging at the end of the day. There were pool floats, towels, and enough wildlife to look at to keep us feeling entertained and peaceful. Naty was incredibly efficient and responsive. She helped us book everything from zip lining, atv tour, catamaran, water fall hikes… all with transportation. The tour guides were very knowledgeable and fun! We also had chef Randy cook dinner for us. His food was delicious and plentiful- there was more than enough for everyone. 5 stars all the way!!!
The views!
