We stayed here a few years ago, and didn’t hesitate to stay here again. This is a fantastic place. Great communication from the host before and during our stay. With four separate en-suites, this is an ideal base for a group of friends or a larger family. So much space to spread out, and easy access to Dominical and Uvita.

I had a group of 9 and stayed for two weeks. We had a wonderful time! House location is magical! Definitely is a drive up a pretty steep hill to get there so 4x4 is recommended but that seems to be the case with most of the homes in Dominical so nothing unusual. House layout was perfect for us. I loved the separate beds. I get up way before the kids so it was really nice to be able to make coffee and noise without worrying about waking the kiddos up. Elizabeth was the best host I think I’ve ever had! I kid you not as soon as I contacted her about anything within 5 minutes whatever I wanted was granted:) Truly the best! I’m definitely going to stay here again if I’m ever lucky enough to come back!

Lovely place for a family vacation

Great set up for our family of 8 with space for everyone. The pool was lovely as was the wildlife who stopped by for a visit. Very well-equipped kitchen with everything we needed. Easy to get to restaurants and Mama Toucans for food.

Spectacular Stay with the Best Views

Our two families enjoyed every minute of our holiday here. It was like our own mini tropical resort in the rainforest. Toucans, capuchins, and all other manner of wildlife visited us daily. The hosts were wonderful and very communicative. Memories to last a lifetime!

Two week getaway

We stayed here with two other couples for two weeks. Everything was as advertised and the hosts were extremely helpful in providing us information about the area and setting up some morning fishing trips! The layout of the place was perfect for couples. The drive up the mountain was a little steep but fine once you got used to it.

Paradise

We loved our stay! Very clean and inviting. The view and sounds were incredible! Plenty of room for everyone. The last day we had a couple of Howler monkeys hanging out with us by the pool - just amazing. Thank you so much for the memories, hope to be back!

A beautiful view

We love visiting Domenical. This trip was no exception. The rental was a bit more remote which can make it a target for thieves. Be sure to lock up your rooms when you leave. We lost some cash and electronics while we were there which put a bit of a damper on the trip. Elizabeth was wonderful and supportive throughout.

Response from VrboOwner on 30 September 2025
Thank you for taking the time to review your stay. The unfortunate reality is that our haven in the jungle is experiencing what is happening everywhere, a rise in crime. Our property feels private but is in no way remote, there is an entire community around it. We always wanted people to feel free and safe here, with some obvious precautions such as locking doors and keeping valuables out of sight. Sadly, this group learned the hard way that it is important to lock up your belongings because the consequences can ruin an otherwise beautiful vacation. However with these negative experiences we have taken some more preventive measures to hopefully deter it from happening again. We have installed several cameras to monitor the major access points (WITHOUT compromising guests sense of privacy), a small safe and replaced all door locks (including the deadbolts). We hope that future guests read all the other reviews that express how magically this spot was for their vacation and have returned time and time again.

Birthday trip

Beautiful view, rooms were very comfortable and accommodating for all eight of us. We loved watching the sunset from the back porch. I grilled fresh fish caught that day on the outdoor grill and served it up on that big beautiful, round table in the kitchen area. My husband said he could live in that everyday, happily. We would love to return.

Spectacular Home with ocean and jungle feel

The hosts were helpful friendly and informative, the home was fabulous with lots of wildlife, and breathtaking sunsets, great for families and friends with a communal room and very private sleeping quarters. Close to towns and restaurants, nearby beaches, and grocery store. This place had all the toys and utensils you would need. Rent an SUV, its a must

Beautiful views

The hosts were great and we loved the open air floor plan. Hearing the howler monkeys was a bonus. Visitors should know this is a jungle home so there will be ants and in the rainy season, some humidity in the rooms. Definitely recommend a 4x4 to access the home.

This place was magical

I'm still smiling about our stay at this beautiful home. You are right in the rainforest in a gorgeous open air home (bedrooms have A/C). Views for hours of the wildlife, plants, flowers and of course, the ocean. The owners live nearby and are so responsive. They even helped us set up a chef to prepare dinner for us our first night there. This was such a great way to experience Costa Rica and I would recommend it to anyone!
