Exceptional Dog-Friendly Treetop Condo with Ocean Views & Breezy Balcony

You'll fall in love with Costa Rica when you wake up to the sight of verdant trees and turquoise waters outside your windows every morning! This dog-friendly two-bedroom condo in the treetops offers lovely ocean views from the balcony and accommodations for up to six guests to have the perfect vacation.

Located in Dominical on Costa Rica's west coast, this condo is tucked away on a hill to provide a welcome feeling of seclusion. It's not far from conveniences, though, and a golden stretch of beach is about a third of a mile downhill.

The condo itself has a sunny atmosphere with plenty of windows and stylish modern decor to make you feel comfortable right away. Open up the patio doors to let the ocean breeze flow in while you kick up your feet and relax with a book or conversation. When the air is especially humid outside, keep the doors closed in favor of the A/C - you'll still have an amazing view!

A fully equipped kitchen with stainless appliances and all the essentials makes it easy to cook all your favorite meals. Extras like a blender, coffeemaker, and dishwasher even help save time. There are four seats at the breakfast bar for anyone who likes to keep the chef company, while the dining table seats six. Take your meal outside to enjoy on the balcony come evening time and catch the sunset over the water.

Between a guide book and free WiFi, you'll be able to plan your vacation days to fit in all the activities you hope to do. After a long day, you might appreciate relaxing in front of the flatscreen cable TV or enjoying a cocktail while listening to the waves crash on shore down below.

Two bedrooms and two-and-a-half bathrooms allow this condo to sleep up to six travelers (four adults maximum). Both bedrooms have a queen-sized bed, an A/C unit, access to a private patio, and a full private bathroom. Two children may comfortably sleep in the twin-sized bunkbeds just outside the bedrooms. A private washer/dryer lets you take care of any laundry you may have.

This condo is perfect for a family or a group of friends looking for somewhere quiet and scenic to stay and enjoy the beauty of Costa Rica. Experienced surfers might head to the beach just down the road to catch one of the largest waves in the country, while others in the group may prefer to just watch the magic happen while working on their tan. Once you've worked up an appetite, grab a bite to eat at Cafe Mono Congo for Costa Rican cuisine or Phat Noodle for Thai.

With so many sights to see, you're bound to take some day excursions. Book a tour or travel by yourself to explore the thriving jungles, waterfalls, and caves that abound not far away. If you're craving more adventure, why not try zip lining through the canopy? Kids and adults alike will enjoy a visit to the Reptile Park or taking a seafaring tour to spot some humpback whales.

Take a vacation to Costa Rica that will leave you with lasting memories - book today!

Good stay / needs Mngr Communication
The Good: Nice Place, fantastic view, good A/C, easy access. Improvement needed: no response from Property Mngr after many attempts with contact info provided. Kids accidentally locked bathroom doorknob from the inside on first day we arrived. I called/emailed several times but no response so I was lucky to find a tool from a neighbor to unlock it. Only other change I recommend is replacing cooking pans as they are warped and don't sit flat on cooktop (uneven heating). SUMMARY: Overall I liked it and would stay again but would get in touch with them ahead of time to verify how to connect if needed.

Breathtaking view and incredible place to stay in costa rica!!
This VRBO is absolutely incredible. I would highly recommend this to anyone visiting Costa Rica and staying in the Dominical area. The house was absolutely spotless, very private and not too far off the main road so we could get to places easily. The view was beyond what words could describe. You could see so many animals and creatures from this deck and hear the ocean roaring in the background. This place is in a gated community so it is safe and secure. This place had the essentials of what we needed and also is super close to a grocery store. When I come back to costa rica, I will be staying here again! Vacasa group is amazing!!

The condo was very nice for our family. It was spacious, clean and had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable and memorable. The views from our balconies were perfect. We enjoyed cooking on the grill and looking at the ocean balcony while eating. I got a little nervous driving up the steep driveway but, after spending a little time in Costa Rica, I realized that is just the way it is everywhere. Lots of steep roads and driveways. We really enjoyed our stay at this property and would totally do it again!

Wonderful and comfortable stay
This is our second time staying at Canto del Mar and our third trip to Costa Rica and this was the best house we've stayed in. Th furniture and amenities were excellent. The property manager was responsive and we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The kitchen was especially well equipped. The place is secure and the views are gorgeous. The only issue we had were tiny bugs in the kitchen but this is to be expected in a tropical place. I recommend this house without hesitation.

Beautiful property. Very modern and clean. Location was more remote than what we were looking for. We ended up leaving two days early to find a place closer to Quepos with a pool for our 5 year old.

Can't beat the view!
We arrived about 1/2 hour early. The cleaners were still working but they let us hang out on the deck and take in the amazing view of the beach and the ocean. The condo was amazing. Very clean and the view from every room was spectacular. The monkeys came through as we drank our coffe on the deck. We will definitely stay here again.

This place was clean, accommodating, and affordable. Spent most the time outside on the balcony with coffee in the morning watching the waves and looking at the birds, iguanas, and other wildlife. Very nice little town about 3km away that has everything you need. Sunsets were amazing as well. Would not hesitate booking again

Great views, nice condo
Nice place for a 'place to land'. Everything was clean and the kitchen had service for 4. Unfortunately, the water was turned off in the 1/2 bath sink and there was no hot water in the 2nd bathroom shower. Other than that, the condo was great.

Lovely quiet location in Dominicalito
We just stayed at this property in August 2017. It is located in a private community overlooking the ocean. The home is comfortable with a full kitchen, dining and living spaces and 2 bedrooms, each with their own bathroom. We loved being able to open the sliding glass doors to the patio and listen to the rain, ocean and wildlife. We had breakfast out there every morning and most enjoyed it. You can see large iguanas and monkeys in the tree canopy surrounding the property. The house was fairly clean overall. We had a problem with the upstairs A/C not shutting off and completely freezing us out. We let the manager know about it but it took over a day for them to address it. The drain in the one tub was also backing up during showers, which didn't get fixed before we checked out. Otherwise, this rental was very enjoyable and quiet. Just an FYI - the main drive up to house was surprisingly steep. Our supposed "AWD" rental car was not up to the task without unloading people to lighten the load. Just be sure your rental car has a functional AWD and/or decent power to get up the road. This is true for any property in this area on the East side of the highway.
