We had an amazing time in Tamarindo and loved our stay at Villa don Vito! Mariana was an excellent concierge and helped us plan everything from meals to transportation to excursions. Highly recommend this place and hope to return!
Property was as advertised, concierge was attentive to our needs, house staff kept the property clean inside and outside. Location was quiet and secluded yet walking distance to downtown bars snd restaurants. I’d highly recommend for families and large groups.
This place is over the top nice. As great as the pictures look it does not do it justice.
The cleaning crew comes in everyday and does a fantastic job.
This may be the nicest place I ever stayed at.
We had a wonderful time at Villa Don Vitto. The set up of the rooms were perfect for multiple families. We spent a lot of time in the pool. Very clean and staff were efficient and quick. Concierge was responsive and friendly. Close to all the restaurants but because of heat we were glad we rented a golf cart. Highly recommend this vrbo.
Very unusual. Nice layout. Great outside area Garden and pool beautiful. Great house for family reunion. Living area spacious Bedrooms all different good beds Kitchen practical and well stocked. Housekeeping did great job. Gardener cleaned pool daily and supplied fresh beach towels. Concierge Mel very helpful
This was an exceptional property! Every detail shown in the pictures is exactly what was there. The cleanliness and staff cattending to us was exceptional. We ordered breakfast everyday and we couldn’t have been more pleased. Thank you so much for a fabulous experience in Costa Rica! We plan to come back!
Wow. This place was incredible and Mariana the concierge was exceptional. She was always available and coordinated 2 golf carts for our group to use. She also offered lots of local recommendations. The pool and villa are straight outta Instagram and would absolutely go again.
The villa is a 15 minute walk to town, with a number of restaurants and stores along the way.
Mariana was awesome and always available from the moment we booked! She was very instrumental in achieving this memorable trip. The house is gorgeous, well equipped and clean.
We had a great time, enjoyed the pool and amenities. Everything is close by. The golf carts were fun to have and made getting further out possible. Thank you for everything! Our group of 13 had the best time and appreciated every detail!
It was our private oasis and still walking distance to shops, beach, restaurants. We had 11 adults and 2 children. There is no actual instruction booklet like we are used to with other rentals but messaging the staff, whatever we needed was there within minutes! It was so incredible! Beyond expectation!!

Pretty good Family house
The property was suitable for our Family of 17, but that would be the max. Unique layout and set up for Family contact. The "loud" with dogs barking, and animals on the roof. We did have a Costa Rica skunk raid our kitchen, which was exciting for the kids.
Our family of 11 (ranging from 3 to 75 years old) had an absolutely wonderful time at Villa Don Vito! The hiuse was perfect, the pool was wonderful and the animals outside (shout out to Rocky the iguana) were fantastic. The location was great, as well as the communication with the property manager. The only "problem " is I'm not sure our future family vacations will come close to this place! Everyone keeps talking about it and cant get over how fabulous it was. Thank yiu to the housekeeping staff, pool/grounds keeper, and Mel, we appreciate all you did.
Would not stay here again! Great location for walkability but not if you are looking to relax as it is on a main road and very loud. When we arrived the gate to the property was not working so we had to wait for someone to come fix it. In addition the house was very warm when we arrived due to 2 of the main AC units not working and the staff did not know how to turn the fans on in the kitchen which is where one of the AC units was out. The pool was dirty and in need of being shocked it finally cleared the day we left. The front door only opens about 2 feet as it gets stuck on the floor making it challenging to get luggage in and out. The photos online must be outdated as the main part of the house does not look the same. The bathrooms are hot, loud, DIRTY and have terrible water pressure! You can hear your neighbors in the bathroom next door so forget privacy when showering, talking or going to the bathroom! The owner/manager neglected to tell us there was construction next door so sleeping in was not an option. Overall the house felt dirty, old, abused, broken, sad, and just not well taken care of. The daily staff did come in and keep it cleaned through out our stay which was nice. I would definitely NOT describe this as a luxury rental!! Size, location and a private pool don’t make it luxury when everything is broken and in need of some TLC. This property needs some serious attention. Set your expectations low if you plan to rent this.
I wanted to celebrate my 50th birthday with my friends at this villa. We are all doctors and surgeons and in total we were 21 people. We arrived at the property on Friday Dec 29 and were supposed to stay till Jan 6. We had everything planned including golf cars and restaurants to stay in the town of Tamarindo. At night time we found a skunk in our kitchen. Soon after the care takers came to remove it and the daughter of the villa manager who spoke fluent English told us that they had a “problem with a family of skunks residing in the villa!” That night the noises from the walls and ceilings and the cries of the skunks were unbearable. I have videos and pictures of all of this to prove and have sent them to VRBO. We could not sleep at night and were trying to see how we can relocate 21 people during the busiest time of the year. The next day two skunks were seen in the kitchen one of which sprayed us and again I have the video of villa staff using fragrance sprays to defuse the smell. The floor of our room was full of wood chips and portion of the ceiling that had fallen and I begged VRBO and the villa agent to help us to relocate and refund my money in its entirety. I finally had to pay again to secure another villa and leave this property and still fighting with VRBO who admit I am still owed money but that this has to be resolved through credit card company. Please think again if you book this property as there is no guarantee or recourse!

We sincerely apologize for the experience you encountered.
A skunk had offspring on the roof coinciding with your arrival. Unfortunately, they managed to enter the kitchen through a small hole behind one of the cabinets. It took us some time to locate the entry point, but it was eventually sealed, resolving the skunk issue shortly after the guests departed the villa. A specialist company was engaged to access the roof, capture the skunks, and release them in a remote area of Tamarindo.
Regrettably, despite our request for the clients to vacate the premises for a few hours to address the issue, they only left for half an hour, making it difficult for us to execute the solution with 16 people still in the house. Eventually, we agreed to provide them with a refund and cancel the reservation. However, they continued requesting additional refunds for taxes, VRBO fees, and other expenses in the following days. We clarified that we had already refunded the maximum amount possible and advised them to address the remaining concerns with VRBO.
At Don Vito, we always strive to deliver the best possible experience, and our entire staff dedicated considerable effort and attention to these customers. However, despite our efforts, we received only complaints and no expressions of gratitude. Consequently, since the review solely consists of complaints, I find the comment somewhat unfair.
This home has a little of everything. My group enjoyed their rooms, outdoor patio, well equipped kitchen, pool table, ping pong table and large great room. Mariana was very helpful and the housekeeping staff was superb. The pool was a little too cold for our taste but beaches are nearby.
Was the perfect accommodation for our group of 10 (5 couples). Great community and private space. Service was fantastic, and every recommendation the concierge (Mariana) made we were thrilled with (Yoga, Spa, Chef). Cleaners and outdoor maintenance group was exceptional.
The location is perfect and there is onsite security.
Our only feedback was that laundry was no longer an amenity.
The property is beautiful, very spacious. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Mariana was a delightful to work with and was able to help with anything we requested. Kudos to you all, we will be back!
This house was nothing short of perfect! From the staff/owner to the layout/space, it was beautiful! We enjoyed every minute! We had kids as young as 2 months old and people as old as 65 in our group. The way this house is laid out is great and gave everyone adequate space and privacy. The staff was absolutely amazing! We highly recommend this house for anyone traveling to tamarindo. Can wait to go again! Soon!!!
Every single need or want has been anticipated for this beautiful home. We were a family of 12 which included three couples, so every child had their own bed with extras to spare. I would not hesitate to return to this wonderful home!
Our family of 14 had a great time at Villa Don Vito. The house was very spacious and the layout made it easy for everyone to relax and enjoy time with each other whenever we were at the house.
Mariana was very helpful on a daily basis with recommendations and connections to tour operators, recommendations on restaurants, etc. And it was so nice to have daily housekeeping -- that team did an amazing job every day.
Would definitely book again if I go back to the Tamarindo area.
The pictures posted did not do this place justice. It is absolutely beautiful! Patrick and Mariana were great hosts and very helpful too. Thank you Mariana for helping with the last minute activities. My friends and I had a great experience at Villa Don Vito and look forward to a repeat trip!
I came to Villa Don Vito on my bachelorette trip. Weeks before I even got there, Mariana helped me plan the perfect weekend itinerary. She spent a lot of time offering suggestions of activities and restaurants, all of which my group loved. She also helped us to organize transportation for us to make the weekend seamless. The property was also perfect for our group of 15 people. Everyone had their own separate spaces and were able to gather together in the main area and other common spaces for meals and downtime. The cleaning staff was thorough and the owners responded to any problems or questions that arose. Would definitely recommend for a big group!!
Luca was such a great host, everyone of my guest enjoyed their stay. The house is exactly as the picture, breathe taken. Thank you so much for having me i truly enjoyed my 40th..can't wait to return.
We had an amazing trip. Owners were extremely responsive and staff was wonderful. ZERO issues and everything was Pura Vida! This is our second time staying in this fabulous location and can't wait to come back. We also had a chef come in for two different dinners and the food was fantastic. Trip of a lifetime.
