Photos do not do this architectural wonder justice! Most importantly the host matched the level of luxury, Laurent cared for us in every way. The house is perfectly perched atop a hill with the most stunning views from the kitchen, living area, bedrooms, and pool. The pool and house were exceptionally clean and we were able to choose what days we wanted cleaning service. All of our needs were met when inquiring about excursions, dinner reservations, a doctor due to our son's ear infection, and COVID testing for exiting the country. The living area is all open air of which we LOVED, just make sure you are the type that enjoys this kind of living style. All rooms are individual with their own bathrooms which offers privacy when needing a respite from the sun. Our favorite spot for sunrise, sunset, and star gazing were the white outdoor beds near the pool. Perfect family memories were made and we look forward to returning! ##### braden j. Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### glenna w. 2 Feb 2022 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Hidden Gem with a magical ocean view We LOVED our stay in Santiago Hills Villa. The house is designed to be able to enjoy the common spaces of the living room kitchen and pool area with a stunning view of the ocean! All open spaces make it breezy throughout, with exposed corridors making it feel like you’re immersed in nature. The minimal gardens and architectural lines of the house also give it a clean and chic vibe. Bedrooms are laid out separately making them secluded and quiet, all with jungle views. The house is hidden in the hills which makes it feel secluded. Absolutely would stay again! ##### glenna w. Stayed 14 nights in Jan 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daphne M. 11 Jan 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Highly recommended place Santiago Hills villa is a perfect place for a family or friends getaway. Beautiful house, great location and a manager who catered for our every needs. We had an amazing stay and we will definitely come back! ##### Daphne M. Stayed 13 nights in Dec 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Holly H., Winnetka, IL 25 Dec 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A slice of heaven! Our family of five (two adults, three teens) had a fabulous week here. Laurent could not be more helpful, the house is stunning and so comfortable it made it hard to leave, but leave you must to explore the surrounding area - surf, beaches, yoga, ATVing, hiking to waterfalls. We can't wait to return! ##### Holly H.
