We had a great stay with our 13 people strong group.The house is very spacious and ideal to accommodate a larger group of people. We had some people over for dinner and we still had plenty of space to accommodate everybody comfortably.The kitchen is very generously equipped and we enjoyed the barbecue and pool area very much. Cristina did a great job in maintaining the place.All appliances worked well and the beds / bathrooms were very comfortable.Regarding the bedrooms, I would like to make two observations. Maybe we oversaw these in the description: 1. One bedroom is only accessible through another one 2. One bedroom is adjacent to the kitchen and doesn't have an outside window.The experience was fabulous and I highly recommend this place.

Casa Brito was the ideal location for my family in Escazu, Costa Rica. We arrived to the house around 2pm on July 14th, 2017 and immediately felt at home. Our group included 11 adults and 3 children. The heated swimming pool was the highlight for the kids. The adults loved the open floor plan. The house had seven bedrooms, which offered privacy for each occupant while still allowing us to all be together when desired. The amazing views of the city (Costa Rican Hollywood) and the modern amenities make the house the perfect choice for a large group. And last but not least, Laura was our cleaning lady this trip and she made an amazing trip, superb. She is absolutely exceptional. I offer the highest recommended for Casa Brito and we will be back next year. Ps. The fruit trees and garden are wonderful.
