"Had a great stay! "

"Great view and a fun area. Chef was good and feels like staying right in the rainforest "

"We arrived to breathtaking views of Lake Arenal and the volcano. Over the next couple of days we savored delicious varied breakfasts and a German cuisine inspired dinner that was prepared and customized to accommodate our dietary restrictions. All of us enjoyed visiting the hot tub daily. The library was well utilized during our stay. So many genres of books for our varied interests! We strolled through the gardens, admiring the many tropical plants and flowers and even saw toucans both mornings. The kitchen is very well equipped, and the beds were comfortable. This is an amazing, large yet cozy property with hosts that make us feel that this is our home away from home! We can’t wait to return!"

"Amazing place!!! Amazing people. Highlight of our trip to Costa Rica. "

"Great place with a ton of local charm and full amenities for a good price. Close to town but nice and quiet, and the stuff and owner were very friendly and helpful :-)"

"This is a very property and the staff is excellent. We enjoyed our stay and the river tubing was a lot of fun. I would recommend it."

"Beautiful grounds, lovely, hot springs, nice hotel. The road is the only difficult thing about the property."

"We enjoyed our first visit to the Villa (and to Costa Rica) very much! All of the words used to describe this setting are so true--Private, paradise, beautiful tropical gardens...it is all of this and more! It truly was an escape from our hectic lives. It was so nice to just relax on the property some days and easy to drive to an excursion away from the Villa when we wanted. Horseback riding with Alex just up the road is awesome--we rode up the mountain side with incredible views. Alex's restaurant is very good also and it is so close--don't pass up his hand made cheese! The Villa is very well equipped with everything needed to enjoy meals there--the panini maker was great to have and dining on the patio during sunset was truly memorable! We definitely look forward to staying here again."
