Brand New Luxury Aracari Villa

Excellent house with AMAZING view over the jungle to the whale tail and gorgeous sunsets each night!!!The bedrooms each had their own A/C and controls so everyone was comfortable. Plus, no TVs was great; we did bring a portable projector but only used it once.The pool was perfect and got lots of use, along with the kitchen. Very private as the house is on top of a mountain, surrounded by jungle! Having howler monkeys in the trees in the mornings is an awesome wakeup call.Not 100% necessary but the last 200m of the drive is steep and unpaved. You can make with a car but we had a couple of Toyota Fortuner 4x4 and it was super easy.

My family and I really enjoyed our 6 days in this incredible property to celebrate our 30th anniversary. It's a hike to get here from San Jose but worth the effort once you arrive. Tranquil! The owner (Joel), provided excellent intel on what do and best places to eat in the area. He was very accessible during our stay and was of great assistance in finding the Rancho Cielo restaurant. Only negatives are spotty wi-fi (especially when it rains). On our departure, we left a 4:30 am for San Jose and awoke to power outage due to downed power lines and fallen tree. We had to avoid several hundred meters of power line and the tree on our way down to main road in darkness but we made it. Another story we can tell about our time in CR. Looking forward to returning as the country and its people are fantastic.

We are all so grateful for having such a beautiful place to call home while in Costa Rica. The views were impeccable. The sun set behind the mountain. Cooking in the kitchen was a chef‘s dtream. The AC was perfect in our rooms at night for sleeping. The pool was amazing especially lit up at night. Hearing the monkeys howling, toucans, sooooo many birds, the flowers, the jungle sounds: was absolute paradise. 10/10 would stay again!

We just got back from a magical 8 days at this jungle villa. It was stunning on all fronts. The layout, the kitchen, the privacy, the decor......all beyond gorgeous. Mercedes was incredible. Always available for our questions. Always making suggestions when asked. She understood exactly the type of vacation that we were looking for and recommended restaurants, hikes, etc. She told us about “local” beaches that were basically secluded. We felt totally looked after. The location is close to Uvita which was fantastic. Albeit, a bit of a hike up the hill. But well worth the drive. Thank you Joel. Thank you Mercedes. I will be recommending your gorgeous house to everyone back home. And hopefully booking it for next year.
