There were some fantastic things about this rental and some things that needed help. In general, the house needs some attention and TLC. The owner communicated well about our stay and met us at the guard station at the gated entrance on arrival. However, when we checked in, the pool was green and full of algae. It wasn’t usable for several days and 3 visits from pool service. Big disappointment. We also noticed that cleaning wasn’t done very well, and it looked like the property hadn’t been used in a while. They arranged for cleaning service the next day. The next morning, we were woken by construction going on next door that should have been disclosed as well – major impact for trying to relax during the day.The shower head sprayed water out of the top and soaked the bathroom. It took the maintenance people 3 days to fix this.On the positive side, the views are stunning and very nice up on a big hillside. Only at certain times are you going to see the actual sunset on the water here. The sunsets were still spectacular.Another issue is that one of the room’s air conditioners did not work and it took 3 maintenance visits to figure out the freon was low. Finally had AC after 4 days. The rental had everything we needed except for dishwasher tabs, but the owner brought a few to us after a couple days. This was needed as we made daily meals here. Otherwise, all utensils, plates, and cookware were available. Overall, a pleasant stay. Pura Vida!

We spent four weeks in this lovely spot. The house was all we needed, except for the fact that many things broke down while we were there: no water for several days, a water heater that needed replacing, a dishwasher that never worked multiple power outages and a bedroom had problems with air conditioning. The property managers, David and Brigitte, were extremely responsive, helpful and worked hard to address all of these issues as best they could. Some were resolved quickly and others not so much. Issues with water and electricity were systemic to the area, and not the house. Pura Vida.

Love the location, the house and the pool. The views are spectacular. It is less than 10 minutes to drive to the nearest beach. Internet was very good for having extended video calls. Very clean. Will come back.

Seven firiends (3 couples and 1 single) rented this house for a month. The road to the house is pretty challenging but worth the trip.. After a couple of days we were quite comfortable navigating the bumps. I would recommend a 4x4 vehicle. Once you arrive you will love the gorgeous views (sunsets every night!) and the spectacular infinity pool. The house has 4 bedrooms each with its own bathroom plus a fifth bathroom off the kitchen. We had a barbecue grill which we used a lot. The kitchen had pretty much everything we needed including a blender, dishwasher, ice maker and plenty of pots and pans, dishes and glassware. The house manager, Christelle, was very helpful and responsive to our questions. The location in Potrero was handy to many of the beaches. We really enjoyed Playa Prieta which is a 10-15 minute drive from the house. Flamingo Beach is about 15 -20 minutes away. We would definitely recommend this house and would rent again ourselves. Two small suggestions for improvement would be: 1. shades on the living room windows and/or roll up blinds on the deck. In the afternoon from 4-6 it is too hot to sit on the deck and we had to put the AC on in the living room to sit there in the afternoon. Once the sunset it was great and a lovely breeze came up. The 2nd suggestion would be a small bureau in the bedrooms. There were a few cubbies but no drawers to store things. Great house overall and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay, Pura Vida!p
