"We had a great time! The house was amazing. The property manager was great!"

"Staff were always there for help, if needed. Very friendly. Bathroom sink fixture was in desperate need of fixing. Room needs a safe and mini fridge, but otherwise very good. Breakfast was very good, and staff always had a pot of coffee ready for guests. Pool was perfect on a hot Costa Rica day. Would go back! Pura Vida!"

"Close to the beach on a quiet side street with lots of restaurants in walking distance. Cute room with a lovely patio, complete with hammock. Very nice common areas with kitchen lounge and books."

"It was the best. WE had one issue with hot water, and they immediately moved us to another room. The room was clean and the improvements being done to the property look like it's going to be even better. The staff worked long hours without complaint and were so positive. The property felt secure to the outside world. "

"One week in paradise for sure. It was close to the activities planned. The view incredible, the facility was suburb and the host fabulous"

"Pros: House was beautiful with amazing view and in a great location. The pool and outside area were lovelyCons: Using the dryer kept tripping the breaker to the house even when we turned off everything else This left us with no electricity at the house. We contacted the property manager to ask where the breaker box was, they said someone from the operations team would be back with us very quickly. An hour later we had not heard from them so went to talk to the cleaning crew several houses down who was able to assist us. Thank goodness or who knows how long we would have been without electricity . We think the drying element was going as it wouldn't even dry the last set of clothes. We had to leave with wet clothes. The third issue was that the sheets in one of the bedrooms had obviously not been cleaned. When we notified the management company they did not even apologize. We changed the sheets and washed the ones on the bed. I sent a message to Vacassa at the end of the stay asking them to notify the owner of our issues with the management company twice but they never acknowledged that they did so? Wonderful house and experience as long as you don't have any issues that require the management company. "

"Robert and Whit were incredibly kind hosts and offered great suggestions to make our stay most enjoyable. The restaurants they recommended did not disappoint! We really loved walking to town for meals via the beach when tide was low - a nostalgic feeling we’ll never forget. There are too many highlights to list, but the wildlife and scenery top our memories. However, the very best part of our stay is the most incredible beach, right out the back door (we learned this is quite uncommon for the area)! It’s stunning and we saw only a few people each day - it felt like our own private beach in paradise!"

"Needs some updating"

"Great communication from Monica prior to our arrival.The house was all we expected it to be - super clean, laid out perfectly for multiple couples, the kitchen had everything you could want, and the location is perfect.3 couples enjoyed 10 days at the house, and it's situated where every night we had the perfect sunset (from the pool no less!) The pool guy came twice while we were there to make sure everything was good (cleaned pool, checked pH levels, etc)The kitchen was perfect! We prepared breakfast and dinner at the house almost every day (ate lunch out), at the table on the patio. There is a BM Supermarket about 3 minutes from the house and they have everything you could possibly need.The property is in a gated community and there was never a time we didn't feel safe. I saw a couple of old comments about safety and all I will say about that is they clearly didn't use the security features the owner has provided.From the porch/pool you will see Tucan's, Iguana's and Agouti's...hint, if you feed them banana's they will come every day. We also saw an anteater and a black squirrel.Downtown Dominical is 5 minutes away (gorgeous with plenty of great restaurants and shopping - and a tour company we did three tours with). Uvita is about 15-20 minutes south (don't miss the Whale's Tail!)I could go on forever, but if you are considering the Dominical/Uvita area, this is THE house!!"
