Portrero

We were quite disappointed when we arrived at the property after the 3pm check in and the maids were still at the house. We had driven for 7 hours and were just hoping to relax. They did not at all try to speed up leaving at all, in fact it took them another 45 mins to leave. The property was not clean the house was dirty especially the cupboards and the doors. Also we had to fill up the pool as the jets were not covered. Overall a disappointing stay.

Big View

Stunning scenery from every square inch of this villa. We spent the entire first day trying to get over the awesomeness of the place. Howler monkeys came up the first day to check us in. Eagles came in for very close flyby every morning. In the pool throughout the day. Spectacular scene at night viewing lights of the hills and valley out to Flamingo.

Great house with great views

House was great and the family enjoyed it. You definitely need a 4WD car to get to the house. Only feedback is you should reach out to special places of Costa Rica as communication on the app is sparse if at all.

Clean, beautiful and well stocked

The team was very helpful from the start. Even before our vacation, they reached out with useful information we needed about Covid travel regulations so we could prepare for our vacation. The house was clean, comfortable and stocked with everything you’ll need for a relaxing trip. We enjoyed the quality pans and ample kitchen equipment for cooking at the house. We found a good supply library of books to enjoy while relaxing by the pool and and a nice selection of movies for a family movie night. We also appreciate how easy it was to get to the beach and to the airport. We’ll definitely come again. Thank you Special Places team!

Renters Beware!! Red ants and bugs will creak k. You in your sleep, tons of red ant bites

House is on a dark dirt road, approximately 1 mile of complete darkness with pot holes, huge rocks and complete darkness swerving and sliding into bushes, huge rocks and trees. Not safe and or as described. Terrifying. Property management is unresponsive. No power for over four days. Bed bugs and hundreds of red ants all over you during sleep. Stranded on dirt road from 9pm until 5am on dirt road to home that is on top of a mountain without any help until 5am, terrifying with rabid and aggressive dog packs roaming property and road. Dozens of wild agressive dogs on prosperity and at front door. Terrifying to run from car to house and back from house to car without wild rabid dogs chasing you. House is full of insects that bite and crawl on walls, ceiling and in beds with you. Property management blew me off and stated this is normal for Costa Rica. 1 mile dirt road up mountain to house is not paved. Very dangerous and zero lighting. It’s terrifying and almost impossible for cars or compact suvs to make it up dirt road to home. Drove way is dirt and rocks. You will get stuck iim driveway and no one to help you. It’s a nightmare location and home. Not safe and We were bitten hundreds of times by insects in our sleep. Red ants everywhere inside home. People knock on door constantly asking for tours that they were émet by special places management company. Land behind home is for sale and buyers will knock indoor asking to view land that is for sale. Trip was a nightmare and we have ton of bed bug bites and red ants that devoured us in our sleep.

Casa Ojo D’Aguila

Beautiful home with amazing views of the ocean and surrounding hills. Location did not disappoint at all. Close to many amazing beaches and attractions. The pool was great! Master bedroom and bath were on point. Property manager was attentive, quick to respond, and respectful. I feel it was well priced. We would go back for sure. There are a few small things that can be improved upon and then it would be five stars for sure. The house lists amenities that were not included in our stay. Dishwasher, clothes dryer, and ice maker were not at the house, disappointing. Ants inside the house were an issue, but I’m sure that is something that can be easily addressed. On a side note you would definitely want a high clearance vehicle to get up the road to the house from Portrero. I would have rated it five stars if it wasn’t for the ants and missing the amenities as stated above.
