"Our stay at Mark and Allyson’s place was fantastic! Well situated with everything we needed. Pool was very nice to have, and the birds in the yard were incredible. We had a daily toucan visit us. Will definitely be back! Loved it."

"this place is absolutely unbelievable! The high-end finishes, the view the monkeys the pool just everything about it is above and beyond. I’m already dreaming of the next time I can make it there. Thank you so much for making this magical place available to regular folks like me."

"Todo estuvo excelente! La comida deliciosa, la única recomendación sería que el desayuno fuera a las 6am o 7am, ya que al ser a las 8am, no permite salir tan temprano para hacer tours o ir a la playa. Sin embargo, mi familia y yo quedamos encantados del lugar, definitivamente volveremos. "

"The location of the property is beautiful, set back from the road and elevated for a great view of the Pacific. We particularly enjoyed the Happy Hour each day at 5:00 to enjoy the fabulous sunsets. The pool, the colorful plants, the toucans, tanagers, orapendulas and numerous other birds added so much to our visit. The staff was so accommodating and friendly. Our 5 days spent at Cristal Ballena were top notch!"

"I do not think we could have stayed in a more perfect place. The landscaping, the scenery, the house were all beyond beautiful. The accommodations were just right for our family of 12. The owners thought of everything to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. The management company was responsive and friendly. Thank you for a wonderful vacation in a beautiful country.Betsy "

"The views are simply the best! The staff were outstanding and the food was delicious! Very cozy and clean room. The pool was beautiful, clean and at a perfect temperature. "

"My stay at this jungle resort in Costa Rica was nothing short of magical. From the moment I arrived, I was blown away by the lush surroundings, the peaceful atmosphere, and the incredible hospitality. The resort is beautifully tucked into nature, allowing you to truly disconnect and soak in the beauty of the jungle. A special shoutout to Dan, the owner, who went above and beyond to make my stay comfortable and memorable. He was incredibly kind, helpful, and always ready with great local tips and stories. Whether it was arranging transportation, recommending hidden gems nearby, or just checking in to make sure I had everything I needed, Dan’s warmth and dedication made a real difference. If you’re looking for a place to relax, explore, and connect with nature—this is it. I can’t wait to come back!"

"Don’t hesitate, just book this house now and get ready for an incredible Costa Rican adventure. As soon as we booked, we received info and help for organizing our transport and ideas for things we could do during our stay. Throughout our visit Simone was available the entire time to help with any questions and to plan out every single day of our visit. Can’t say enough great things about Simone! Having Ruben as our boat driver and guide for the entire visit was the highlight of our trip. No boring tours in large groups of tourists! Ruben took us kayaking, fishing every day, boating through the mangroves to see monkeys, even on a night hike. We absolutely loved exploring the area with him. And after a day of adventures you can sit at the house watching monkeys or toucans right from the beautiful large decks, relaxing in a hammock or rocking chair while Dolly cooks you a delicious dinner. We also did the horseback riding and snorkeling at Cano island, both also memorable activities. We travelled with our 3 children and it was a family vacation we will never forget. Yes, the walk up the hill to the house is steep, but so worth it to be up in the trees surrounded by nothing but nature and beautiful views. Then when you are ready to explore Ruben is waiting at the bottom of the hill at your private dock to take you wherever you want to go! "
