"We spent the week sitting on the patio or soaking in the pool, watching and listening to wildlife, from monkeys and agoutis to toucans, hummingbirds, and all kinds of other exotic and rare birds (you should seriously consider downloading the Merlin Bird ID app!). We watched humpback whales breaching in the sea, enjoyed the company of geckos and basilisks, and were very happy with the level of comfort and privacy. It was quiet but not far from groceries and anything else you want/need while in the country. We've stayed at 7 or 8 villas/houses in Costa Rica, and this is the one we''ll go back to. Everyone was very responsive and made the entire process seamless. We can't recommend this place enough. "

"Amazing views!!! The staff was so helpful and nice. It was a little scary navigating up to the villa but manageable. Definitely rent a 4x4 vehicle. If you are looking for a peaceful vacation, this is the place for you. Pura vida!"

"No words can describe the beauty and peacefulness of this property. The grounds are spectacular and our room was gorgeous overlooking the ocean and sunsets. Upon our arrival we were greeted with refreshing beverages and brought to our room where we saw Toucans and Parrots . In our two day visit we saw monkeys and frogs and lots of butterflies! It was so hard to leave. The entire staff was so kind and friendly and helpful. It was the highlight of our 10day Costa Rican vacation. We will definitely return again. . "

"Amazing views, great rooms, and relaxing "

"We loved the helpful staff, clean rooms and excellent breakfasts. We will definitely visit this beautiful property again."

"Love this place!! Would definitely stay again "

"This is definitely a 4 star not a 3 star hotel. Pool is really big and great lounging areas and garden around. Toucans are plenty here and easy to spot. Feels like a hidden gem and a truly special place. It is expensive though… particularly drinks and food is definitely a lot higher than in other places. You get what you pay for though and the quality is good. Highly recommend the family suite "

"What a great house! The view is phenomenal, and you can't beat the privacy. The wildlife is wonderful, the water is HOT, and the AC is cold. We were a little bummed to realize the jacuzzi isn't heated, but there's a giant bathtub in the master bathroom right by a window that was just as enjoyable, so no worries! The kitchen is large and usable, and the grill was a nice touch. We had a wonderful stay, and would recommend this property to anyone looking for a good time in Costa Rica."

"El Castillo is one of my most favorite places to stay- the views, the staff and the food are all incredible. Highly recommend. "
