Overall outstanding! For years we went to Flamingo Beach -- which has now become overcrowded and touristy (IMHO). We were a group of 13 ranging from 4 months to 70's and found Playa Hermosa and Sun Monkey perfect! The house is great with lots of areas for privacy -- baby in one area, kids in pool, adults reading - and nobody bothering each other. Service is great and lots to do in the area. I recommend Ginger for dinner, Diamonte Adventure park (8 year old did the zipline) and Aquasport for access to the beach with a great restaurant. I would rent it again in a heartbeat! PS We paid to have breakfast provided (YUMMY!) and it certainly did get the day off to a good start!

The view and property are amazing! It's beautiful and stunning. We had a wedding at their other location the villa daiquiri and enjoyed having both options for our guests to stay at. We loved hanging by the pool!The location is great being only a few minutes away from the beach, but just know if you intend to rent and walk to the beach it is a massive hill for anyone with impaired walking abilities.

This was the most amazing house, property, and vacation EVER. It was a dream. The gorgeousness of the infinity pool and setting over the ocean (the sunsets are to die for) cannot be captured online. The house was spacious, the bedrooms and bathrooms were large with plenty of space. Loved the balconies in some bedrooms. The A/C worked amazingly well and we were there in 95 degree heat. The outdoor shower was amazing. The outdoor cabana and all the space to hang out by the pool and hot tub was perfection. The views of the ocean and jungle canopy were magnificent. The 12 minute walk to the beach was not bad at all and we loved walking by the local market to buy what we needed (it was pretty well stocked for being a small local market). Playa Hermosa beach was awesome! Warm water, beautiful, smooth sand, shaded trees, plenty of local eateries to get food and drinks nearby. Everything walkable and easy. Costa Ricans are friendly, kind, hospitable, lovely people. We REALLY enjoyed the Congo Canopy Zip Lines and ATV tour (close by!), the Leona Waterfall Hike and Restaurant, Rincan Thermal Hot Springs and mud baths, Rincon de la Vieha park, and we rented a private catamaran for our large group which was AMAZING. I also recommend Rocios Kitchen for local catering: super lovely to work with and food was delicious. We are a family of five siblings and we brought our spouses and children totaling 20 people. Kids ranged in age from 11-28 yrs old. This place was a dream.

The house is so beautiful and roomy. We had an issue with the coffee maker for a few days and they were always quick to help. Eventually they just bought a new one to replace the broken one. The key fobs didn't work at first but again they replaced after the first day.

Can't beat this view!

We loved our stay at this property as it was plenty of room for our family of 13! The pool was a hit with our kds and the view was amazing. The property manager was very accommodating and helpful to our family and tended to any needs we had. The location was perfect - a short drive to Playa del Coco and an even shorter drive to Playa del Hermosa. We highly recommend this property!

What could be made better to make 5 star in future? Thank-you for your business and hope you return.
