Laurent and Liberty were truly amazing hosts and were extremely attentive, friendly and helpful. The house had everything we needed and was extremely spacious and welcoming. The location was perfect: not too far up the mountain and easy drive to both Uvita and Dominical. Views were outstanding! We will be back for sure! ##### Hayley K.

It is stunning from the views, the layout, the decor, everything, stunning! The owners/hosts are amazing, friendly, and answered all questions. The house had all we needed for cooking, laundry, and a comfortable stay. The pool and its view are breathtaking. The location was perfect, easy with 4x4 but not too far up from the road. Easy drive to beaches, stores, and excursions in Uvita and Dominical. Wildlife and breathtaking views it was perfect. This was an incredible home for our amazing vacation- Pura Vida ##### Naomi W.

This is the most beautiful VRBO home we’ve ever stayed in and we’ve been renting homes for over 20 years. The hosts were so responsive and helpful with everything from giving great recommendations to answering questions quickly. The infinity pool was so wonderful after a long day of activity. The home is close to many beaches and town. The only negative was the driveway up is very steep but we had a 4x4 so not a problem. The wildlife is amazing right in the yard. Toucans and so many birds! We are wildlife photographers so this was perfect for us!! Definitely will stay here if we return to Costa Rica!! Thank you so much for everything Laurent and Liberty!! ##### Lisa P.
