Ville a Ballena

“The house has a fantastic location and is beautiful. The outside area with the pool is fantastic. You are in the middle of the jungle, you can see toucans and other birds and hear the howler monkeys in the trees.”

“We had thirteen friends for a week here. The property sits up on the side of the mountain in the canopy of the jungle w/wonderful species of tropical plants, birds, monkeys, and a great view of the Pacific Ocean. Patricia is an amazing planner she helped us with all our excursions (ATV tour, ZipLine), a massage day & transportation, our driver Edgar was great, very accommodating and informative. We had two days of in house prepared meals (food of your choice from a local menu), our chef Pedro...

“Few days of relaxation and sun! House was lovely.”

“Beautiful, large property with a wonderful indoor/outdoor house and views!”

“Awesome vacation with a group of 11 guys celebrating an upcoming wedding (bachelor party for my brother in law). Property management was incredibly responsive and helpful. The property was clean and exactly as we expected! Highly recommend - great value for what we received.”

“We decided to extend our stay last minute and felt lucky to find this house, ON THE BEACH, just south of Dominical. We stayed with our daughter and son in law for 3 nights in early May 2024 and had our house - one f three in this location-to ourselves. The location and house were perfect for us. Long walks on a nearly deserted beach, pool was great to lounge in at the end of the day, well-located within close proximity of Dominical and Uvita for restaurants and provisions. Grilled fish and fresh...

“The property was well maintained and the houses were stocked with everything you might need, down to laundry detergent! The beach out front was beautiful and basically private. The location is close to town and felt very safe. There is a grounds keeper on the property at all times, they are very friendly and helpful, but you practically don’t notice them. It was great for our group!”

“Property was amazing with a really nice view and pool! Everything was perfect and the host even helped us plan a bday celebratio!”

“We stayed here as a family of 4. Absolutely beautiful home and property. My kids loved the pool and each having their own bathroom. We watched toucans and other birds in the trees and iguanas, Jesus lizards and geckos run around the grounds. A/C in the bedrooms was lovely. The living room and kitchen could be a bit stuffy in the middle of the day, but we were out by the pool during those hours anyway!”

“We visited the Villas Azul to celebrate our 25th Wedding Anniversary. The property is in a perfect location for anything you want to experience in Costa Rica, including adventures or pure relaxation. The views from the Villas are incredible and offer opportunities to see the ocean and wildlife. We saw a variety of birds and monkeys. The property is incredibly built, maintained, private and comfortable. We are grateful for all the considerate touches such as the food in fridge and pool area. The...

“One of our best trips. First time to CR, but will not be forgotten. Thanks so much!! Can't wait to come back again!”

“Our family of 10 people stayed from May 6th to May 16th. The home was beautiful, spacious, clean and well maintained. The beautiful pool and yard made us feel like we were at our own personal Resort. We had so much fun enjoying all the indoor and outdoor amenities. My 2.5 year old, and 7 year old granddaughters loved the pool, as did all of us. Especially after coming home from a hot humid excursion. The pool was welcome relief to the heat and humidity. Lichio and Darling were amazing hosts and...

“First time visiting CostaRica and were glad we chose this listing. Great communication and the views were nothing but amazing. The drive up the mountain was as expected, rent a 4x4 from Adobe. Also use Johnathan Mata for transport from the airport, he was absolutely amazing!”

“This house is truly incredible. The first morning I woke up to the sweeping view and sounds of the jungle I couldn’t stop smiling. Pay attention to the requirement for a 4 wheel drive car. The drive into the neighborhood is no joke. If my husband didn’t have off road experience I would not have done it. The room set up worked great for us (2 adults, kids 16, 14 & 8) but if I had younger kids the separate rooms would have felt too far from the primary suite. We spent hours in the pool,...

“WE HAD AN AMAZING TIME. SUCH A GREAT LOCATION TO EVERYTHING AND WHAT A VIEW”

“This property has unparalleled panoramic view. We felt very safe in this location, and the check-in/check-out process was a breeze. The driveway is very vey steep. Shuttles and regular cars were unable to drive up the driveway so we had to walk luggage up from the base. The house itself is immaculate, and the overall property is exceptionally well-maintained. However, a notable challenge surfaced during our stay— the absence of air conditioning in the main living area. While we understand that...

“Our recent stay at Villa Serena met our expectations and more. The villa is exceptional and provided the perfect place for our group. Oscar, the concierge, was extremely helpful, arranging transportation, offering suggestions for dining and sightseeing, and went out of his way to make our stay enjoyable. Clean, spacious, gorgeous views, and an amazing pool and whirlpool. The location was perfect and provided just a short drive to Dominical, Uvita, and Quepos. I would definitely recommend this...

“The location and view were fantastic. We loved sitting out and watching the birds/animals and ocean. The kids enjoyed the pool. The house we didn't love as much. In our opinion, the pictures were a bit misleading and it was overpriced for what we got. Our first night there we lost all power for about 10 hours and had no ac, water or internet. No one slept much that night. They got that fixed and then the internet went out the following day and was out until the next afternoon. We had internet in...

“Wow!! What an amazing property… When you enter through the gates you find yourself winding through the lush jungle until you arrive at the villa. Once you arrive you start to understand what a special property this really is. The views are magnificent, there are trails all around the property that allow you to see all types of different vegetation and wildlife. Not far off there is an amazing outdoor yoga studio that has a beautiful stream of water that runs through it. Annick and her team were...

“The house has a fantastic location and is beautiful. The outside area with the pool is fantastic. You are in the middle of the jungle, you can see toucans and other birds and hear the howler monkeys in the trees.”

“From the very beginning, this place, the host and property manager was amazing! Super communicative and was totally open to my many many questions lol! Arriving there, Jorge drove us up the insanely steep awesome mountain to this beautiful property! He showed us around and made himself available for any help we needed during our stay. I I can't even tell you with words how beautiful this place and the view is! There's no way anybody would be disappointed by staying here. Thank you so much for...

“Lovely gem with amazing views of the ocean in a rainforest setting. Staff is amazing and restaurant is outstanding. So peaceful - truly a slice of heaven on earth.”
