6 week stay

I so loved my time staying in this sweet little villa. I loved the outdoor areas and the proximity to town, but with quiet at night. It was better than represented by the pictures. The house was well equipped, the management company and owner were a delight. My only suggestion would be an upgrade of mattresses. We rented a golf cart for tooling around town. It was a wonderful stay.

It was a great pleasure to stay there. All the comforts are in the house. From the washing machine to the dryer, from the towel to the ice bag for the beach to the beach, and a TV with channels from all over the world if you need it and good wifi! Everything perfectly tidy and clean. All the amenities indicated in the presentation are real. The price is justified for what is offered. Just only a ridiculous, nice and unimportant observation: plan to change the pots ;-)) They are teflon and are scratched! The result of some clients a little clumsy... Thanks, thanks again and best regards. With sympathy (sorry if some mistakes, english is not my first language...) !

The owner is a fraud

The owner accepted payment but did not confirm with the hotel. I received a hotel confirmation, and when we arrived, they did not have the reservations. We had to book another room at the hotel and double pay until this matter was resolved. We tried calling the owner multiple times. She read the text messages and hung up on the hotel staff. This was the worst experience. Do not book this cabin. Horrible. I was traveling with my family (two small children ). We spent half of our first night in the hotel lobby.

Calm oasis

We stayed here for 3 months. The house was very clean & well stocked. Any issue we had was taken care of immediately by the staff at Horizon Pacific. It was the perfect location to get away from the busy downtown & only a short walk to the beach. I would recommend this property to anyone.

Nice and quiet

Though it is close to town, it still feels very secluded.

Why they chose this property

I have traveled to Costa Rica numerous times over the past 15 years. The "Gold Coast" is my favorite part of the country. I found myself returning multiple time each year, so decided to purchase a property.

What makes this property unique

This particular property is unique because it is quiet, yet a convenient walk to town and the beach. The property manager owns one of the homes in the community. As a result, the grounds are kept in top condition.
