We loved our stay! The private pool is a must, the location was great. We loved the uniqueness of the property. It was in great location for the beach, jungle, and a town! May possibly book here again for a Holliday with a big group of family!

Far exceeded our expectations. Well equipped kitchen and the daily service of the bedrooms, common area and pool were exceptional. We had five private lockable bedrooms each with its own bathroom and shower and one had a jacuzzi. The beds were all large and comfortable. We had an extended family of grandpa and his two kids families with kids from 8 to 19 for a total of 10. We had the entire space to ourselves. We hit great weather in mid June which was supposed to be the start of rainy season. The rooms would have easily accommodated 4 or 5 more people. The pool was kept clean and our kids enjoyed playing billiards on the pool table. We had a number of animals visit us including monkeys, iguanas, toads, a kitten which stayed around a couple dogs and something that looked like a mix between a squirrel and a skunk (smelled like a skunk) but didn’t bother us. There were plenty of nearby activities. One word of caution, if you drive from Liberia, don’t blindly follow Google maps as it will lead you to places where you have to ford several rivers. Each member of our group had their own favorite activity ranging from the safari/zip lining at Ponderosa near Liberia, to horseback riding, fishing, riding Atv’s, visiting the nearby waterfalls or beaches or just relaxing at the pool. The only negative is to beware of their no cancellation for any reason policy. We had an issue arise where we wanted to cancel several months before our stay but they wouldn’t let us Luckily itworked out.

Excellent guest experience and upmost service. Daily cleanings, at home massages, easy access just off the main road to busy Santa Teresa. Multiple beach entrances near our property and the rooms were amazing. Beautiful design, large and cool. Kitchen was stocked for cooking if needed, but we ordered local delivery most of our stay (easy delivery instructions). Private pool with shallow entrance for kids, loved it! Would definitely stay again.

The style of this property is the quintessential home in tropics with an inviting pool, an open area living room, dining room and semi enclosed kitchen with bedrooms that have air conditioning. The stone floors, wood work, tropical plants and trees made it feel like you were staying in nature but had all the creature comforts. We had 10 from our family staying here and the place couldn’t have been more perfect for us. We made breakfast most days and a few dinners in the fully equipped kitchen. There’s no ac in the kitchen but the wonderful on-site housekeeper Jasmina got us an extra fan immediately when we asked. Since it is in the jungle and the common areas are open air you do get a variety critters coming through usually at night but the kitchen can be shut up tight so we never had them invade our food. The night after it rained the frogs were really loud so, as any seasoned traveler should know, be sure to bring ear plugs. We enjoyed the pool throughout the day between adventures and going to the beach and played pool nightly. The closest beach has a really nice left break for surfing when the tide is medium to high, at low tide to surf dies down and the rock reef is a bit dicey. The only slight problem was the pool deck and it’s also the path to the house had large drains that made it a bit difficult for my mom to walk over, we had to assist her as for her it was a bit difficult. It wasn’t a problem for anyone else and we will definitely come stay here again.

This was so far the best property I have ever stayed in. There were ten of us staying here. Tons of space inside and outside. The pool was awesome and it made it hard for us to want to leave on excursions. The cleaners changed sheets daily, gave us fresh pool and room towels, cleaned the floors and counters and even did all our dishes. Florencia the host was easy to communicate with and extremely fast at responding to any questions we had. We also saw tons of animals on the property including monkeys and iguanas. Staying here was one of the highlights of our trip.

We had a wonderful time at Villa Havana with our 4 adult children and their significants and 3 grandchildren ages 1,3, and 5. Yasmina prepared wonderful breakfasts several mornings. The entire staff was so friendly and we felt so pampered. The rooms were cleaned and all the beds made each day. Dishes were washed. The open air living space was just perfect!! Each suite was different and had its own unique feel. The pool was clean and maintained daily. Florencia was outstanding to work with, very responsive and so helpful. Truly we cannot recommend this place enough. It is open air so that comes with some bugs and visits from animals, but we expected that. It was just so perfect for our family. We left today and miss it already!

Highly recommend this place. It's like staying in Indiana Jone's house with all the comforts of home. If we ever make it out this way again, I will be booking this property.
