"Our family of 5 stayed a week at this beach house and we loved it! We had so much privacy and were the only people on the beach. It is definitely off the beaten path, but worth the drive! Lucy was an amazing host and made us feel very comfortable. "

"We stayed a week at Casa Luz and enjoyed it to the fullest! The first morning we awoke to a troop of squirrel monkeys, some with babies, on the deck. Their antics were delightful even when one took a dip in the swimming pool. We enjoyed bird watching, seeing toucans, scarlet macaws and many other beautiful birds. The iguanas visited us daily and the butterflies we saw were exquisite. My entire family agreed this was the perfect choice to enjoy the beauty and wildlife that Costa Rica has...

"Our group of 13 adults and teenagers was comfortable in the house and really enjoyed relaxing and hanging out in the outdoor area for coffee in the morning and pool time in the evening. Having a concierge to help with recommendations, setting up an in house chef service, and booking the things we wanted to do was a huge help. Would definitely stay again!"

"Stayed with family for 5 nights and didn’t want to leave. Property is very isolated and in the thick of the rainforest which is just what we were looking for. Wake up to birds chirping and the distant sound of the river flowing nearby. Deborah/owner was awesome and so was Jose. Would love to come back some day."

"We really enjoyed our stay at Alta Vista. Our villa was well-equipped and spotlessly clean, the beds were comfortable, and there were separate bathrooms (with showers) for each bedroom, which was really convenient. The highlight was the gorgeous sunsets over the Pacific that we watched each evening from our private plunge pool. We grew fond of the brightly colored pair of scarlet macaws living nearby (and frequently flying over us). What could be more "pura vida" than that?"

"Everything about our stay was excellent! The rooms were nice and clean, the grounds were beautiful and well kept, the food at the restaurant was very good, and the hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. The reception staff helped us arrange tours and transportation, and gave us several good recommendations for places to see and eat. We would definitely stay here again."
"This is a modern hotel with huge rooms. Very comfortable. The closet is in the bathroom which is an interesting peculiarity considering that the living and sleeping area could easily have accommodated it. Safe works. The flora is austanding. Breakfast is good. Plenty of tasty coffee and tea. I definitely recommend this hotel. "
"Amazing rooms, large, clean, good size kitchen and super friendly staff. The place to stay especially for families with young kids. They have a playground and several pools."
"Robert and Chef made breakfast delightful every morning.
Pedro was very helpful and the rest of the staff very friendly and willing to help if we needed anything. "
"The room was huge with a private patio. Very friendly staff, great breakfast included. Convenient location for area restaurants and beaches. And we can forget to mention Yara, the amazing frenchie!"
"My husband and I stayed at Gaia after I found it online, and WOW- the ratings and photos didn’t even come close to preparing us for what awaited. I’ve truly never experienced a hotel like this before.
From the breathtaking views to being surrounded by jungle, national park, and a macaw refuge, Gaia feels like something out of a dream. But what truly sets it apart is the people who run it. Every single staff member is attentive to every detail. It’s as if they anticipate your needs before you even realize them yourself.
Our personal concierge, Catalina, made everything effortless. Alessio, our dinner waiter, and Anthony, who took care of us at breakfast, were equally wonderful, warm, thoughtful, and genuinely kind. Their care isn’t just part of their job, but it’s who they are as people. Because of them, we felt immersed in Costa Rican hospitality and culture in a way that words can’t quite capture.
Catalina helped us plan amazing excursions: a guided tour of Manuel Antonio, a 90 minute couples massage on-site, and a breathtaking waterfalls tour that became one of our favorite memories. With only about 20 guests on the property, everything felt intimate and serene. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly greeted, upgraded to a beautiful room, and made to feel at home right away.
And then there’s La Luna, the on-site restaurant that completely blew us away. After trying several restaurants in the area, this was easily our favorite. Thank you Alessio for all the wonderful"
