Zen with a touch of monkey
We had a wonderful time at Villa Nalu! The home was beautiful, the grounds were well kept and the howler monkeys were kind enough to let us sleep in until 5am (haha). It was absolutely amazing to be so close to them and the kids loved it. Thank you Hilda for preparing us breakfast and for keeping us neat and tidy all week. This was our third trip to Costa Rica and by far our best. Thank you to Joel, David and the team for being there when we needed you. Pura Vida! Brian

Villa Nalu
Eight of us, ages 8-74, arrived around noon, which was earlier than the check in time. The hostess was there to greet us, and the cleaners were just finishing up and they let us store our bags and change so we could go off to the beach. The place is just so, welcoming, tropical and very private. It’s very comfortably furnished with an ample kitchen, which is what we needed as we wanted to cook a lot of our dinners. It’s a 5 Bedroom Pl., but we only needed four of the bedrooms. The pool is perfect temperature and is clean daily. There is a six seated golf cart available which we used all the time to get to and from the beach and to and from the Marriott or the beach club for the gym, the pool, the beach, and the snack bar. We did rent two cars which we needed for our various activities…It is a little bit far from Tamarindo , but once we made the trip once or twice, we felt comfortable navigating it and getting into Tamarindo for different activities. We would definitely come back here again. Jose, Mergie and Tati were so helpful before we came and I am sure if we had needed them they would have been right there. Hilda our daily helper was kind and let us practice our Spanish with her.
