There are so many good things to say so these are in no particular order. Great communication prior to our arrival regarding any questions we had and whether or not we could use the shorter route from Liberia. That involved route 911 and the part that's known as "The Monkey Trail". You have to cross a river so we needed to know how the river was flowing and if we would be able to cross. Got a message via WhatsApp a few days before our arrival saying it would be ok to take that route. We rented a 4x4 and easily made it across. Saw several cars crossing as well. More great communication on our arrival in Liberia and where to meet near the house to arrange the check-in.
The house is exactly like the pictures. Beautiful view, plenty of room for 8 of us, nice size pool, a/c worked great in all rooms. Also got good recommendations for restaurants, etc, from our host.
I would not hesitate to stay here again. We all loved the house and had a great time.
I know I read reviews to get a better idea of what to expect so I hope anyone reading this finds this last part just as useful. It is in no way meant as a negative. In fact, for us it was something that added to the whole experience. Just know that the dirt road to the house is like an off-road trail. It's about a 5 minute drive if you take it very slow and having good ground clearance such as a 4-wheel drive SUV helps. Again, for us, this just added to our experience and really gave us a feel for local living. If you want your vacation to be no different than any other vacation anywhere else, then this might not be the place for you. But if you want a beautiful, secluded house with an amazing view and like experiencing things that help make your vacation unique, you will love this place. Costa Rica isn't known for its world-class roads, so knowing that made sure we knew what to expect. Not only did we not mind the dirt road going to and from the house, we had fun with it as it added to our overall experience.
Wish we could have stayed longer. Like I said, so many positive things about this house and no issues with anything. We really had a great time here.
