Luxury holiday home Santa Teresa - Villa Makai

The property and the service were great The spot was amazing . We lived it

Great modern clean place. AC only in the bedrooms so living room gets a bit hot but not bad thanks to the shade provided by giant trees all around. Great staff and concierge (Sophie) who really looks out for the guests. Pool a nice thing to cool down after a day in the sun. Beds super comfortable, large bathrooms, modern, convenient to supermarkets, restaurants, up a steep and bumpy road (need car). We had a few issues which were immediately addressed by Sophie and Martin, which was great. Overall, it's a great place in a pretty pricey town for Costa Rica, but seems prices have gone up everywhere there. Lots of great restaurants, beach a few minutes away by car, lots of nature, monkeys in the trees every day near the house, great views... recommended!

My group of six friends had a really great time at Villa Makai, Santa Teresa location! Our plan for this vacation was to be active, eat healthy, have a lot of fun and have time for a relaxation as well. Seven nights was not a very long time for everything but still we were very happy and satisfied at the end of our stay. The villa was perfect for us, beautiful, very clean, very well equipped. Also, we could see and feel the nature so well through the glass and screen panels downstairs. We really enjoyed the pool and a beautiful dining area outdoors.We did practice yoga every morning as a group and there is a very nice platform for a meditation practice as well. Overall we had a great time, not only because of the place but also because of very nice people: the owner Martin, the wonderful concierge Josefina and other staff members. Everyone was super helpful and doing everything so our stay was as pleasant as possible. We had a great communication with the owner Martin and the concierge Josefina before our trip and during our stay at Costa Rica. Josefina was really wonderful! She did help us with grocery shopping, to book our trips, activities, restaurants reservations. She also found an excellent chef for our special “dine and celebrate life at Villa Makai” experience. By the way, we strongly recommend Chef Luis for a special occasions. The food was really delicious and chef Luis is very experienced and he is super nice and friendly person. We just loved the whole experience!

This is an amazing house in a great location. The house is clean, beautiful and just perfect in every way. The garden/landscaping around the house and pool are very beautiful and the sunsets from the house, garden, and pool are stunning. The property managers do an outstanding job taking care of everything to support you during your stay. The surf of Santa Teresa is only a few minutes away at the bottom of the mountain. I love this property and will be back!!!
