A very nice unit clean and comfortable. Several staying there are long term residents and all were very friendly and interesting. A wonderful group of guests. We stayed for 5 weeks and I would go back in an instant. The owner quickly replied to any questions or concerns and has the property maintained constantly. The view from the patios is amazingly and the nightly sunsets are breathtaking. A 4X4 vehicle is a must to get to the villa but worth it. We met people there from all over world. Thanks for the memories. ##### Janie r.

We spent a month here and enjoyed every minute. Wonderful location to take day trips to waterfalls or beaches and then returning to peace and solitude. Regularly saw toucans (two kinds), hummingbirds (four kinds), coatimundi, agouti, parrots of all colors, and butterflies galore. Owner is quick to respond to questions and requests. Would definitely stay here again. ##### Keva F. Stayed 28 nights in May 2023 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Doug 10 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication We loved the Villa. The pictures are a bit deceptive as you need to drive to the waterfall, which is a must see. The road up to the Villa requires a 4x4 or an SUV type vehicle. I missed this in the write up, we had a small car and it was very nerve racking. The host was very communicative and accommodating. I would stay here again. ##### Doug Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2024 ---
