I can not recommend this property after the stay we had. The beds have been eaten through by bugs. There is no pool. The thing they call a pool is a disposable joke. It’s a mosquito farm from the 80’s. There are water reservoirs and holding spots throughout the expansive property so the bugs have plenty breeding grounds. We were bleeding by day two. The host says “costa rica has bugs” but I live a mile away from this house and NO.
The gym pictures has a gigantic dying truck in the middle of it that has leaked chemicals everywhere so you can’t work out there.
Oh and the house was FILTHY. I paid to bring my own cleaning lady in for three days before we abandoned the house mid rental and moved to another location.

We thoroughly enjoyed vista volcanes. The size of the place is awesome with its open concept and sliding doors that bring the outside in. It has a lovely hot tub, and is set on a hill overlooking a valley as well paos volcano where we spent our evenings over great meals prepared in the vast kitchen . It is located in a safe gated friendly community of like minded people. The toucans visit in the early morning, and the area is teaming with birds and various wildlife (coati Mundi, capybera, lizards). Would return in a heartbeat!

We stayed in this beautiful home instead of staying at a hotel near airport for a few nights before we left CR. The home is beautiful and the views stunning. The host arranged for us to have a celebration dinner with a local chef. There is a restaurant style kitchen and barbecue—it’s incredible! We really enjoyed our stay and will be back when we are in the area.

We were 2 couples, and stayed for almost 2 months. We had an issue with the fridge a day after we arrived but it was fixed immediately. The owner and his family were gracious and so very friendly. Weather was exceptional, warm during the day and cool at night great to sleep. Not great place for someone who has trouble walking, however we found a driver [Cesar] who did everything for us at a very reasonable cost, he even picked up and delivered restaurant food. Would certainly return.

The view is stunning, I loved the chickens and fresh eggs every morning. The owner was very responsive. The house is very comfortable, beds and kitchen. The faucet came off pretty much first day and that was tricky.
I would definately come back again!
