"We took our family to Costa Rica for Christmas and selected this house for our base of operations. Michael and Massi were very communicative and patient with all of our questions. The house suited us perfectly and was everything we were looking for and more. Definitely recommend to anyone thinking about staying here. "

"Our family of eight (adults) enjoyed a delightful week at this beautiful villa. Everything about Vista Encanta was near perfect: four bedrooms with great views of the Pacific, the infinity pool; indoor and outdoor dining, AC to every room, complete kitchen and bar, total privacy.Our two cars (small SUVs) took us to great ATVing with Jungle ATV in Uvita, fishing with Tropic Fins at Puerto Jiminez, surfing with Bodhi Surf in Uvita, and a tour of Manuel Antonio National Park at Quepos. All were excellent.JP, from The Private Chef, prepared, served and cleaned-up a delicious New Years Eve meal that included the tuna we caught in the week.Numerous great restaurants are within a short drive. Conveniently, the best dining was at Citrus and Heliconia, in Ojochal. Try the Bakery in Uvita for fresh baked bread and pastries, plus breakfast and lunch in huge servings!We’ll be back!"

"The near all glass house sits atop a rainforest with fabulous views and a great outdoor pool. It is also minutes from pristine beaches. The kitchen is well equipped, and the bedrooms comfortable with private bathrooms and balconies. The host was super attentive and responsive It also comes with a local concierge who greeted us upon arrival and arranged superb outings. We will come back for sure."

"The staff are all wonderful people. They made us feel right at home. The ambience was amazing, we saw and heard a ton of wildlife. The howler monkeys sure do know how to make an entrance. The gazebo by the water was tranquil and I recharged after spending time in the hammock. The food was delicious as breakfast comes with the stay. I totally recommend this place for anyone wanting to be close to things yet feel like you are far away."

"Fantastic. The owner and chef are the best!"

"This place was beautiful! The decor is Mediterranean/pacific island vibe that is amazing. The pool area is outstanding and the dining options around the hotel are wonderful. "

"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. . "
