It was a great central location for us wanting to do things up north as well as in San Jose, but feel like we were away from things. The ground are very well kept, and the owners are super nice.

Peaceful & Recharging
This was our second stay at this property. It fits our family needs perfectly and is such a beautiful location. It would be great to see the kitchen faucet updated and a full set of pots and pans but otherwise we love the area and great communication with the owner and property manager. We look forward to returning next year!

Absolutely perfect
We rented this property while we wanted to visit Alajuela, San Jose and Poas/La Paz. It was a short drive to all these locations (less than 1h) so this house was perfect. It was a bit big for us as we were only 2 but the location was great. It is in a small, quiet neighborhood and there’s a market with everything you may need just down the road. It’s also close to ‘La Fiesta del Maiz’ which has great local food options for a really cheap price. If we were to go back in this area, we would probably rent this property again.

Fun Times...
This was just the right property for our family of 6. We had 4 adults and 2 kids. Victor was a great host and very helpful with information about activities and transportation. The pool, soccer field and trampoline were a hit with the kids. It was quiet, clean and comfortable. When traveling back to this part of CR we would look to stay here first.

An amazing location!
My family stayed at this beautiful home and there’s nothing I could say other than it was completely beautiful! The gardens are perfectly maintained and the house is sparkling clean. It has all the amenities that you need to have a peaceful and worry free vacation. Since we were traveling with 4 children, we found the pool, soccer court and WiFi kept them completely busy. Most of all, I can’t express how wonderful the owner Victor and his wife Judy were...they greeted us at our arrival and gave us a full tour. They made us feel like family! We are already planning our vacation for next year and will be definitely staying here.

Graduation/family vacation
Thank you Victor the property was beautiful and well maintained. The gardener does a great job. We had the house keeper come one day between our stay she moves so fast and does a wonderful job. We didn’t want to rent a car and victor put us in touch with Alex and Raul. They picked us up from the airport and took us anywhere we wanted to go it was cheaper then a taxi and renting a car for the week. We would rent again so peaceful

Almost Paradise
Views and yard were spectactular but there was trouble in paradise. The neighbors dogs barked often and sometimes through the night, their rooster started crowing at 3:00, the showers looked great but water came out of everywhere but the head, thelarge sliding glass door had a gap underneath and tons of bugs came in at night, appliances were old didn't work well.

DISAPPOINTMENTS
There were two issues that were not great about the property or stay there. One is that it had many termites and when you had lights on inside the property they were all over the place. Plus many ants inside the house at night. There was a shower problem and the maintenance person came in and fixed it somewhat...the water came out a little better but not great. Outside of those two issues it was a beautiful place and would consider staying there again if these issues were corrected.

Be open minded
The manager of this property or owner was awesome he did everything to make us feel home and what not. But the property isn't what the pictures project. We ran into more than a few issues that he was willing to deal with but my group was not. I would say if you're just looking to lay your head and go go go then you're fine but if you're looking to lounge at the property and get in the pool and enjoy the garden that didn't happen. Again this is nothing about the owner as he was awesome but this place is a 3 star at best if I am being honest like I wish someone would have been as we read the comments before.

Exceeds Expectations - Dream Vacation Home
Where do I start? Victor and Judy are gracious hosts with attention to every detail. The house was super clean and tidy, you feel right at home as soon as you arrive. The property itself is breathtaking, you have your very own private piece of Costa Rica. The kitchen and ranch area have everything you could imagine to cook a full course meal. The bathrooms and bedrooms were super nice and comfortable. You don't really need to leave as you have everything there you could need but if you do want to adventure out everything you could want is close by. 15mins from airport, 20mins to San Jose downtown, 1hr to La Paz waterfall, 1hr 20mins to Jaco. I've stayed over 6 times in Costa Rica at various rentals, this by far is paradise!! Muchas gracias to Victor and Judy for making us feel at home and opening your home to me. Pura Vida! Dana

Pool, Pool Table, BBQ and Soccer Field what more do you need!
I found it hard to believe all of those amenities were for a single property, but they are! This property is by far the best value I’ve seen in the area and trust me I looked at them all. My wife and I took some of extended family for a short vacation. We live about 30 minutes away and found the property very easy to get to and not far off the main highway. Victor (owner) met us early and showed us around the property. He explained how everything worked and left us to it. Everyone loved being in the pool during the day and playing billiards at night. We had everything we need to cook our meals inside, but for lunches and dinners we cooked on the gas BBQ. The kids used the soccer field which had a ball provided. All the rooms have air conditioning which worked very well. The property is surrounded by a 10-foot wall for added privacy and security. The checkout process was super easy. The cleaner was there by 10AM so we were able to pack up and be on our way, but it wasn’t rushed. Would rent this property again!

My New Favorite!
You'll be renting much more than a house. Place is great. House is very nice throughout. The bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen, TV's, wifi, living room and view to the backyard. House itself is very nice, but the property in its entirety is the ultimate fun zone and/or relaxation zone. Room to roam around, great views and a nice breeze. The upper rancho is my favorite spot. Refrigerator, BBQ's, hammock and pool table. Pool area is great as well. The pool stays warm with the natural sunlight and, if ever needed, has a heater. This is important. Make sure the pool you are renting is warm. Pool lights and uplights on the large palm trees are great. Then there's the soccer field. Real cool place to play soccer or even just a great place to chill and look at the massive Guanacaste trees. Whole property is walled and gated with security cameras/monitor/phone which is a nice touch. Seemed like a very safe area, but nice to know it's there. Very important to rent from the right people and the family we rented from couldn't have been nicer. Just great people. 10 star rating for the people. Gracias Victor and family! 5 stars just aren't enough. Easy trip to and from the airport. Easy walk to the store if you need to restock the supplies. Cool property for sure. Much more than a house. Highly recommend and will be returning.

Awesome property!
Where can I start..... Victor & his wife are such lovely people who treat you & make you feel like family! Very easy going & welcoming! This was the 2nd house we rented in CR, and because if the area we were coming from & pissible traffic, Victor didn't think we would arrive at the time we said; but we did & he and his wife were there anyway & the house was ready. They even noticed before we arrived that the coffeemaker was not working and they went & bought a new one right away. Even though it is in a rural setting, the property is very easy to find & very close & easy to get to the airport(appx 15 min). Very convenient & central location for San Jose, Poas, La paz, etc.... The neighbourhood felt very safe & relaxed, not crowded at all. Mini-market 2 min away for anything you might need. Out of the 2 houses we rented, this was by far our favorite one, the backyard was amazing & huge!!....we spent all our at home time there. Our kids loved the pool during daytime & Rancho area in evening (pool table, hammock, sitting area & outdoor kitchen). Outdoor furniture around pool area was updated from what was in the pictures when we booked (which was very nice). Our boys had a great time in the mini soccer field & trampoline. There is one ensuite bathroom from master deroom, one more bathroom inside the house, and a 3rd one accessible from outside (all have a shower). Victor's wife offered to have the cleaning lady come if we wanted, what would we like her to do, and which days & time would we like. We only asked for bathrooms, but we were very pleased to come home and find out everything was spotless! (Mop, dishes, beds, baths & she even folded a load of laundry that I threw on a bed that I didn't have time to do before we left the house) Wonderful service & wonderful people! Thank you for everything, CR is amazing country with lots to see & if we go again to visit what we didn't have time to see (which i hope so) we would definitely come back here before going back home!!

A beautiful paradise away from the city
Check in was great as the host had someone meet us to show us around. From there we felt our privacy (gated property) and relaxation in the beautiful landscaping by pool or patios in the mornings and after a busy day of touring. It was a great location with traditional restaurants within a few miles and a small market on the corner for easy groceries/ snacks. We even one night walked to the corner bar and had a drink:). The kitchen could use some care in organization and supplies but after all, we weren’t really there to cook- but we did make breakfasts each morning in the kitchen and there was a nice, new and clean fridge! Beds were comfortable as well.

Centrally Located but Private
We really enjoyed our stay. Having been to Costa Rica many times, we wanted to be located closer to San Jose instead of the Pacific Coast. We knew it was the rainy season but it only rained late in the day. In fact we had sun every morning until mid afternoon . It would be a great home for a family or group. Plenty of room and close to great restaurants and ease of shopping. Victor is a most gracious host and kept us informed of any projects or maintenance that was scheduled. We give the home 5 stars and will return on another trip to CR. Pure Vida!
