Host profile image
I am Adriana, owner and property manager of Villa Kañik. My husband and I have 3 beautiful kids that grew up in this piece if paradise. We are a mix of cultures, Swiss Brazilian with Costa Rican blood all in one family. We love to travel, meet new people, be outdoors and do sports together.

We lived in the area of Dominical for more than 6 years, and our hearts belong to this magical place. We decided to build this home in 2022 so that we could always have a place to come back to, no matter where life takes us, we wanted to have a refuge, a place where we can go back to the roots and find our balance.

We are now very grateful to be able to share our home with you.
