"The property was as described with no running water due to construction in the area. The road was dirt with lots of pot holes. It was almost impassable. The property owner responded the first day about no hot water. No answer at all about not having any water at all."

"Our family of 5 had an amazing stay at this home. It was the perfect hub to do everything we wanted to do and the views are better than the pictures. Mark is very responsive to questions and provided many recommendations. He emailed info to us after we booked and there is also a binder at the house. We did an all-day private boat tour with Martin Adventours and highly recommend them. It cost us less to combine sportfishing with snorkeling at Cano Island and we had the boat all to ourselves. Our tour guide and captain were exceptional. We did the Sierpe Mangrove tour with David. David was sick but Adriel took his place and he was wonderful. We saw more animals than we expected on this tour - amazing birds, some with babies or eggs, squirrel monkeys, a howler monkey, boa snakes, and a sloth. Highly recommend! We ate at the soda in Uvita, Bagel Time, Pizza Time, La Percela in Dominicalito (where we saw capuchin monkeys). Beehive restaurant in Uvita was our big splurge - pricey but the food and service were phenomenal. We even tried Pollolandia for one meal. All the food we had was delicious. The local supermarkets had everything we needed and the beaches were close and beautiful. We took road trips to the Boruca village and Don Emilio's coffee farm (visit the amazing waterfall up the road too). Both were worth the drive. From the house we saw toucans, agouti, scarlet macaws, iguanas, and many birds and the howler monkeys came out on our last night. Vacation of a lifetime!"

"Beautiful location! Wonderful part of Costa Rica"

"Todo estuvo excelente! La comida deliciosa, la única recomendación sería que el desayuno fuera a las 6am o 7am, ya que al ser a las 8am, no permite salir tan temprano para hacer tours o ir a la playa. Sin embargo, mi familia y yo quedamos encantados del lugar, definitivamente volveremos. "

"I do not think we could have stayed in a more perfect place. The landscaping, the scenery, the house were all beyond beautiful. The accommodations were just right for our family of 12. The owners thought of everything to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. The management company was responsive and friendly. Thank you for a wonderful vacation in a beautiful country.Betsy "

"My stay at this jungle resort in Costa Rica was nothing short of magical. From the moment I arrived, I was blown away by the lush surroundings, the peaceful atmosphere, and the incredible hospitality. The resort is beautifully tucked into nature, allowing you to truly disconnect and soak in the beauty of the jungle. A special shoutout to Dan, the owner, who went above and beyond to make my stay comfortable and memorable. He was incredibly kind, helpful, and always ready with great local tips and stories. Whether it was arranging transportation, recommending hidden gems nearby, or just checking in to make sure I had everything I needed, Dan’s warmth and dedication made a real difference. If you’re looking for a place to relax, explore, and connect with nature—this is it. I can’t wait to come back!"

"Don’t hesitate, just book this house now and get ready for an incredible Costa Rican adventure. As soon as we booked, we received info and help for organizing our transport and ideas for things we could do during our stay. Throughout our visit Simone was available the entire time to help with any questions and to plan out every single day of our visit. Can’t say enough great things about Simone! Having Ruben as our boat driver and guide for the entire visit was the highlight of our trip. No boring tours in large groups of tourists! Ruben took us kayaking, fishing every day, boating through the mangroves to see monkeys, even on a night hike. We absolutely loved exploring the area with him. And after a day of adventures you can sit at the house watching monkeys or toucans right from the beautiful large decks, relaxing in a hammock or rocking chair while Dolly cooks you a delicious dinner. We also did the horseback riding and snorkeling at Cano island, both also memorable activities. We travelled with our 3 children and it was a family vacation we will never forget. Yes, the walk up the hill to the house is steep, but so worth it to be up in the trees surrounded by nothing but nature and beautiful views. Then when you are ready to explore Ruben is waiting at the bottom of the hill at your private dock to take you wherever you want to go! "

"Villas en el Bosque provided the perfect sanctuary for our family to unwind, relax, and fully immerse ourselves in the beauty of Costa Rica. The villa offered both comfort and space for our family of four. The owners were incredibly welcoming and hospitable. But what truly made this experience unforgettable was the breathtaking view. Our villa overlooked the lush forest, with a stunning glimpse of the ocean in the distance. Every morning, we enjoyed the natural spectacle right from our patio, where we were fortunate to spot Capuchin monkeys, vibrant Scarlet Macaws, lizards, and delicate hummingbirds fluttering nearby. The tranquil surroundings and exceptional hospitality made Villas en el Bosque a truly unforgettable retreat. It's a place where nature, comfort, and a sense of serenity come together to create an idyllic getaway."
