"Paul and Alejandro are fantastic hosts in the most beautiful setting you can imagine. Honestly loved the town, the country, the activities, the food, the people and service more than anywhere else I’ve visited. Whole heartedly recommend this vacation home. "

"One week in paradise for sure. It was close to the activities planned. The view incredible, the facility was suburb and the host fabulous"

"We were given incorrect coordinates by either VBRO or Vacasa. We didn’t arrive until it was dark.Fortunately a worker living on the property helped us and learned that we were booked at another property managed by Vacasa. We were planning to sleep in our car.Once we found the correct location, it was lovely."

"Our family enjoyed a great week at Cabilltos Del Mar Sur Villa in Dominical! The home was exactly as advertised online. We arrived late Sunday night to a very clean home ready for us. We were very thankful for the AC wall units in each bedroom bc the house was very humid on arrival but in a matter of minutes each room cooled down and stayed that way throughout the week. They were a great escape after long days out in the sun! We also loved having a private pool at the villa and seeing our Iguana friend each day was a treat! We booked all of our excursions through You Get Here group that manages the homes and each trip exceeded our expectations! All of the YGH staff were wonderful to work with - Very responsive!The town of Dominical is a quiet town just about a mile walk down the beach. Great restaurant options in walking distance! We also traveled to Quepos and Uvita to explore the area - Each way 30 min travel! And speaking of beach, to have private access to this beautiful beach was amazing, not only to watch the sunrises and sunsets, but also to play in the warm ocean water! Our girls LOVED this!Travel to Villa: We rented a car from San Jose to drive to Dominical - it’s about a 3.5 hour drive along a windy two lane road, so prepare for a long travel day if you drive. Thank you for the hospitality this week! "

"We chose Villa Amor del Mar for our visit to Dominical - actually in the tiny town of Dominicalito next door - and could not have been happier with our choice. The Villa is beautiful, with a great kitchen/living room/deck on the main floor and two bedrooms with ensuites downstairs. The location is perfect - in a gated community nestled in the jungle but very close to the beach. But what made our stay really special was Sigal, our host. Though she was not physically present, she treated us like family, offering recommendations for tour guides, restaurants and activities and showing genuine joy when we reported back that each one was a hit! "

"Had the cutest little home and pool to relax at. Very close to a surf beach. The house was very clean and had cool screens to enjoy the fresh cool air of an evening. "

"Really enjoyed our stay – it was very comfortable and felt almost like home. The owners were welcoming, helpful, and thoughtful, even preparing a breakfast for our early departure. The location was great, just a short walk to the town, beach, and supermarket. Bonus: Penelope the cat added some feisty character!"

"Our family stayed the week of Thanksgiving and it was absolutely wonderful. The house was easy to find with the Waze link the host sent and communication was good. The views were absolutely stunning at night to watch the sunset by the pool! Would stay again in a heartbeat!"
