The house was more than we expected. It was perfect for relaxing and getting away from the world. We absolutely loved it.

Great location, beautiful view
The bedrooms were very comfortable and had air conditioning. The bottom floor has just screen doors and no AC. The dipping pool was perfect to cool Off after a hot day at the beach. The staff was great, very responsive and accommodating. Will definitely stay here again.

Very disappointing week. We reserved the property in July for a January stay. Reviews were great until end of the year, then the wheels fell off. Construction next door ruined 5 of 7 days of our stay. Only once I complained to the property manager did things change and a partial refund was negotiated; the concierge would not help at all. Make sure that construction is completed before considering this property!

We had the most incredible stay at this property. Everything you could hope for and more. If you’re lucky enough to find availability - book in - trust me, you won’t regret it. Thanks for a wonderful day!

Heaven.
Perfect stay at Villa Makai in this gorgeous town. We loved being at the house in the mornings, on the yoga deck, and returning to relax at the end of a beach day. Super comfortable beds, great outside shower. Can’t actually imagine anything we would change about it, apart from the road up the hill 😂🤣. If we have the opportunity in the future, we will be back. Thanks to sireen who was so helpful with recommendations and information and always at the end of the phone!

Secluded and Beautiful
This beautiful property is up in the hills of Santa Teresa. Highly recommend if you are down for some fun ATV rides up and down the hill! Super convenient to all of the best places to eat and surf. The property manager is also amazing and helped us with all of our logistics from the airport / ATV rentals / surf recommendations!

Beautiful home above Santa Teresa
This is a beautiful home as shown in the online photos. The lower level is enclosed by screens which can be opened to connect you to the outdoors, or closed in the evening to block out mosquitoes while still letting in the sounds of nature. Upstairs bedrooms with locking doors have a great view with nice bathrooms. The place is cleaned daily. Overall a great place for a relaxing vacation.

Beautiful Rental & Amazing Service
Great experience, Martin was very helpful before and throughout our stay. Spent the mornings watching the monkeys come for papayas and in the evenings watching the beautiful sunset. The property is beautiful very clean and well maintained. It was a great end to our vacation in Costa Rica.

Beautiful spot, clean and comfortable. Sunsets from the pool every evening.
Martin was an unreal host. He was in contact when needed and was always there too help. Even got us fresh fish one night. Anything we needed to do on our vacation he was able to help line up. Best rental experience we have ever had. Thanks Martin
