Informazioni su questa struttura

Villa Olivia: Spettacolare Oceanfront Beach House Villa!

Villa Olivia è una favolosa casa per le vacanze sull'oceano a livello di multe situata in posizione privilegiata sulla spiaggia incontaminata di sabbia di Playa Grande.

We had the most wonderful family vacation at Casa Olivia recently. This fantastic home is located right on the most beautiful beach. We loved the outdoor areas and the pool.

Wonderful stay!! The house staff could not have been more helpful and kind. They were more than accommodating and the property was amazing! Just like the pictures.

Big Family Reunion

This property was ideal for our family reunion. We were able to rent this house and the property next door through the same owner and it was great! The staff was great and attended to our needs. The location was great and we love the house being right in the beach with easy access. The area was quiet. We would stay here again.

Beautiful home with a superb beach location. The host was very responsive to our questions. Property is away from the hustle and bustle of the city which made it very relaxing. We had all our meals prepared by Kimberly and her staff. Food was excellent and plentiful. No one left the table hungry. It was the perfect decision to have all our meals at the house with Kimberly.

Amazing Relaxing Private House

Super awesome stay. House was great. AC and private bathrooms with showers in each room were key for the family we had in the house (10 total). Kimberley the housekeeper has a service where she'll cook meals for the household and they were soooooo good. Highly recommend having her make a few meals for your stay. Area was safe, private and relaxing. Easy to get to and exceeded all expectations.

We stayed at Villa Olivia 17 years ago as a single family and it was paradise! Our second visit as a multi family was even better! The pool and AC in the kitchen/living room made our 7 days vacation perfect. All personnel was amazing, like the last time, very attentive to our grand kids and they were always telling us know when the German bakery truck was coming by. We had amazing waves for surfing and as usual spectacular sunsets! We dream to return again... Thank you to the Gordon family for sharing this beautiful house with us!

Perfect place to vacation

We absolutely loved staying at Villa Olivia. We loved that it was a little secluded but also had great places to eat in walking distance. We loved the staff and the cooks were AMAZING! They were welcoming and friendly. Also one of our favorites was the watchdog who we loved on each day and she would stay right with us. For our first time out of the country(other than a cruise) this exceeded our expectations. We would definitely rent again. It has everything u could need. Thank you for making our stay wonderful.

Family gathering to celebrate our 50th Wedding Anniversary.

We loved everything about our stay at Villa Oliva! The house was more beautiful than the pictures. The swimming pool was terrific. I was a little worried as it was small but is had wonderful steps into the pool and comfortable benches to lounge in the clean water. The location is lovely and the beach beautiful and not crowded. Every question or concern was immediately answered and promptly taken care of. Our family of 8 had a great stay! We highly recommend this house.

Great place for a family reunion

Property is just as described; pool and ocean were essential for beating the Guanacaste 96 degree Fahrenheit heat. Beach has great surf, too rough for the littlest kids and oldest folks but perfect for everyone in the middle to play in. Took a while to figure out where to get groceries and recommend stocking up in Liberia before you head down the coast. Listing is clear that boogie boards are available to rent from the house, wish they were included!

Gorgeous sunsets

Great location right on the beach. Leanna and Kimberly were amazing hosts and so responsive to our needs. We were surprised that room cleaning and towel replacement was another 20 each cleaning but it was easy to simply decline that service. No TP in toilets so you must throw dirty TP in the garbage cans which means a cleaning is needed every few days. Def recommend having groceries stocked for you. . throw

Amazing

We had the absolute best time at Villa Olivia. We had a group of friends for a 40th birthday trip and we all enjoyed our time here. The beach is incredible and morning walks are just beautiful. The sunsets from even the back patio are incredible, less yet out on the beach. We rented surf boards for surging and had a blast. We lounged in the pool after coming in from excursions. Restaurants were just a short walk down the road or the beach, so we took advantage of those. Kimberley cooked dinner for us one night and breakfast one morning and it was so delicious- everyone in our group was so impressed! The watchdog Morena was such a joy to have around, you can tell she is well loved by everyone! Can’t wait to bring my kids with us here next time, they will love this place as much as we did.

FABULOUS! FABULOUS! FABULOUS!

We waited an extra year (like everyone else because of the pandemic) to take this trip, and it was well worth the wait! We were 8 adults, and there was plenty of room for us, everyone had privacy, it was so great to have the beach so close for those who love the beach. We had Kimberly cook a few meals for us, and they were all delicious. We wanted to bring her home to cook for us! She was also so helpful with whatever small problems we had. Everyone we came in contact with during our visit was friendly and helpful. We used YouAreCostaRica for a couple of tours, and Mariana was the best to work with! I highly recommend using them if you are in the area. If I never take another vacation I will never regret taking this one, and I would definitely come back here again!

Truly Beach front

We were a small yoga group staying 3 nights in early April, 2016. Feels like 10-12 could fit comfortably, so we had lots of space. Very comfortable. Beach was nicer than expected, good for wading and body or boogie boarding. Not many places to eat really close, but a 10 minute walk will get you to a couple decent places. Kimberly will cook for you for a price. It was good food, although I our group is very health conscious, and we noticed that she used some ingredients we could prefer to live without. She also charged a $30 taxi fee to pick up food, so be aware of that. There is a phone on site, which was handy, although it took me a day to know it was there. Marianela is the contact there and can help you with activities and rides, although one of the rides she set us up with tried to get another $20 out of my client at the airport, not very respectful. Overall, a really nice place.
Risposta di VrboOwner, il giorno 24 mar 2020
We are glad to hear you enjoyed your stay. Playa Grande is a small community spread out over 2. miles. There are over 12 restaurants, a is needed to get to the majority. Kimberly is very open to cooking to the needs of the group and willing to avoid ingredients when requested. The phone is located in the living room next to the sofa. I will notify Marianela of the extra money requested for the airport transfer. If Kimberly is provided transportation by a guest there is no charge. Thank you again for choosing to stay with us.

Amazing Ocean Stay!!

Our family of 11 enjoyed our week long stay at Villa Olivia! The ocean views from the house are amazing and we watched the incredible sunsets nightly. Someone from our family walked to the close by tide pools daily where they saw lots of hermit crabs and even a couple of octopuses!! The house managers, Leeana and Elizabit, were very responsive to any questions we had and requests for help. We really appreciated Kimberly shopping so that we had groceries in the house when we arrived. As our flight was late and we didn’t get in until 8pm our first day, we were especially thankful that we’d had groceries delivered. Kimberly was knowledgeable about buying gluten free food for our family members who have Celiac. Kimberly and the staff at the house, kept the grounds clean, cleaned our bedrooms every other day or so, cleared away our trash and recycling every evening and kept the place secure all night. Each of the five bedrooms had bathrooms attached to them. All except one bedroom is only accessed through an outside courtyard. So perhaps this wouldn’t be a good house for younger children as they would be wandering outside to get to their parent’s bedroom.The main living area inside is not huge for eleven people, but the plentiful outside tables and chairs accommodated us just fine. The smallish pool was great for cooling off if you didn’t want to be in the ocean and has some great seats on one side from where you can see some of the ocean. We all loved our visit!!!

Thank you for your wonderful review! We're delighted that your family of 11 enjoyed your stay at Villa Olivia. It's great to hear you appreciated the ocean views, daily walks to the tide pools, and the incredible sunsets. We're glad Leeana, Elibeth, and Kimberly could make your stay comfortable, especially with the grocery shopping and attention to your dietary needs. We're happy the outdoor spaces worked well for your group and that the pool offered a refreshing break, too. We loved having you and hope to welcome you back soon!

Amazing location, property needs a lot of work

It's hard to be critical of a property in the middle of paradise. The location alone is beyond 5 stars. But, if we had known the following, we would not have rented this property: All rooms are accessible via outside entrances- with the exception of a small room off the family room and none of them are connected to one another. This makes sense for groups of adults but does not make sense if you like for your young children to be close to you. The pool is the size of a large hot tub The "countryside view" studio is in bad shape. It has potential if a)it was cleaned properly b) it didn't consist of the world's oldest, mustiest futons and decrepit day bed c) the "view" consisted of something other than a side yard littered with debris and junk d)the torn, stained sheets were replaced. The house was swept one time while we were there. No sheets or towels were ever changed which was problematic since the washer and dryer are not accessible to the guests (have to pay to have someone else mix your whites with your darks) The kitchen needs a major update-stove and dishwasher barely work, dishes and silverware are all chipped and old, pots and pans are old and worn and stacked in a jumbled mess under the counter. We found black mold growing on the inside of the water cooler spout. With a few renovations and updates, this house could truly be amazing.

Hi Kim, thank you for your feedback and helping us improve future renters stay. With our beach house photos in combination with property description we aim to explain the villa layout and amenities. We are reviewing them for improvements and understand the studio would be better described as having a countryside view from the deck. Room cleaning is offered every third day, with daily service available for an additional fee. The linens are also changed at this time. Each guest is provided with the telephone number of our property manager to provide assistance immediately when notified of any concerns arising. Our apologies on the stove, it was to be installed but pieces were missing and on back order. In July, I inventoried and replaced the majority of cooking ware , serving ware and dishes. The manager has been contacted to asses these kitchen concerns. We take reviews very seriously and address all feedback, for the majority of our vacation rental calendar is booked by returning guests. We take pride and strive to make this a memorable experience in which to return to.

Perché ha scelto questa struttura

We are a family of 'water babies' born and raised on the beach shores of Santa Barbara, CA. (Of course the grand kids also have this ocean gene). Once my children (Julie, J.C, and Mark) became of an age when we could all travel my husband and I would take them during summer vacation on a surf safari to an exotic destination somewhere in the world. This was not only for fun, but to spend quality time with each other as well as to expose and educate them about different cultures and customs.

On a surfing safari to Costa Rica in '91 we instantly fell in love with the country, the kind and hospitable people, and the natural habitat. It was a paradise!! Long story short after returning to the States and raving to family and friends about this oasis a friend said he had the perfect property for our family in Playa Grande.

My husband flew down a month later and purchased the property for me as my 50th B-Day present! Over the past 17 years both my family and friends lives have been significantly enhanced by the beauty of the 'Tico' people, the natural wonders that surrounds us and the 'Pura Vida' lifestyle. This means Pure Life, an expression of contentment, happiness, and satisfaction with ones life. It's this philosophy that ranks Costa Rica as one of the happiest places in the world!!

We invite you along with your family and friends to visit and enjoy the surf, sand, sun, & experience the 'Pura Vida' life.

Cosa rende unica questa struttura

Playa Grande is a magical beach, for thousands of years the prehistoric leatherback turtles have come to nest and the ancient Chortega Indians performed ceremonies.

Immersed in the peacefulness of the surrounding beauty, the' pura vida' life is easily attained.
