"We had such a wonderful time on our stay here. The host was great and very responsive before and during our trip.The house was perfect for our group of 5 people and the air conditioning was extremely nice (and worked well the entire trip). Our kids loved having the pool to jump in during the hot afternoons as well. Everything worked well (laundry, pool, a/c, kitchen supplies, etc.). We were also within walking distance to the grocery store and beach and restaurants."

"Pictures are accurate. Great view over Pacific. Quick access to Dominical for supplies and dining. Access from main highway is a 3-minute drive on somewhat steep and partially unpaved road. Very doable, especially with 4-wheel drive. We had a few question during our 10-night stay and the management company was easy to reach and responded quickly. We would absolutely stay there again."

"The house was excellent— beautifully decorated and well equipped. The owner and property manager were kind and helpful! They aren’t kidding about needing a 4-wheel drive. It’s steep! This was the perfect place to come home to after a long day of exploring the region. We loved it and can’t wait to come back! Thanks for a great time!"
