Myself, my husband and our six year old had a great time at the house. The pool and the daily visits from the coati were the highlights. The pool was even warm enough for me. Our typical day was to head out early to town or the beach and come back in the afternoon to enjoy the house and views! Going up and down the road twice a day was the nost I'd recommend but I think ny husband would have no issue with more trips a day. The house and views were worth the drive. Oscar was very helpful checking us into the property when we arrived after dark. He was also great recommending a restaurant for fish tacos and meeting us after we left an item behind at the villa after check out. We highly recommend and hope to come back again! ##### Natalie W.

Words can’t describe how incredible the view is and how incredibly relaxing it is in the back patio! It is both a visual and auditory sensation. Hearing and seeing the various birds and different bird calls, hearing the monkeys, seeing coatis every day and nighttime visitors-geckos and frogs! We loved it! The plants and trees are stunning as well and it’s private! Like others have shared though-the road up to the house is rough! It took us 25-30 minutes one way in our 4-wheel Suzuki jeep. It could barely make it up! Don’t rent a Suzuki jeep ! lol! Oscar, our concierge, did an incredible job communicating with us and booking our excursions! Wish we didn’t have to leave! ##### B F.

The pool was a really nice treat. We could’ve spent days by the pool reading books. Our kids spent hours in the pool. The kitchen was well stocked, the beds were comfy, the home was perfect for our family of 4. ##### Suzanne S.

Everything worked well here. Functional nice house. Grinder of a drive up is the only negative. ##### Todd A. Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kirsten H. Jun 28, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing views & so comfortable! The extraordinary views and beautiful yard were unparalleled. The drive up was intense in places but totally worth it for the privacy and views. Oscar, the property manager, could not have been more gracious or helpful. He was so attentive and helped to arrange many details of our trip. Olas Azul made for a wonderful family vacation. ##### Kirsten H. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rick E. Jun 30, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Gorgeous getaway The home is just like it’s pictured — beautiful, secluded, quiet, scenic. The drive up the mountain to reach it requires 4WD and a concerted focus. But the mountain is easily mastered as long as you don’t take the wrong road back down. Oscar, the property liaison, is phenomenally attentive and willing to help at every turn. The entire trip was a fantastic break, rich in wildlife that’s unique from our US experience. ##### Rick E.

Dec 31, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful villa, stunning view As noted by many, the drive up to the property is an adventure. But it's definitely worth it. The property is beautiful and very well maintained. The views are amazing. We were visited by toucans and other birds as we lounged by the infinity pool. We had a very relaxing stay and were sorry when it was over. Oscar was super helpful. Highly recommended! ##### Frank Jan K. Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Claire H. Dec 31, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Paradise The place was amazing! Isolated, private with a spectacular view. A little challenging at times on the road to the property, but well worth it. I would definitely recommend 4 x 4 with a good amount of power. We enjoyed every minute of our stay. Was particularly nice to have a private place in the middle of Covid. We did lots of lounging by the pool, just the two of us. Heaven!! ##### Claire H. Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Patrick Z. Aug 3, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A wonderful house, spectacular view! We spent 5 days at Olas Azul with a family of 4. The house can not be better: fully equipped with everyhting you can ask for, super-well climatized and with all the privacy you can ask for. The view across the forest and the ocean is breathtaking. We even spent a few days in the house and pool only without driving down. Be aware that you need a 4-wheel drive and a bit of patience and getting here from the main road - but you will be rewarded ten times over. ##### Patrick Z.

The roads are very well maintained, just really steep so 4wd is a must. Besides, once you get there, you never want to leave. We were so happy with the time spent there, it was very private, and the views were absolutely captivating. One of my many favorite features was the unique shower which opened up into a lush garden area that was like the garden of eden. Oscar our concierge was so helpful. Truly an unforgettable experience and I cant wait to come back. ##### Grey C. Stayed 6 nights in Dec 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### James P. Dec 30, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Great but Property is awesome the drive each time was awful. The view is great but to me not worth the trip up a few time a day. Even a car flipped over the side. ##### James P.
