The host went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and comfortable, with thoughtful touches that made a big difference.

House was as advertized; clean and spacious. Wife and I and (2) 18 year olds each had own room and bathroom. Pool was small but refreshing after a day in the sun. Two balconies allowed wife and daughter to tan. Neighborhood was fantastic with great restaurants and close to fruit and vegetable market. All of Claus' recommendations were spot on. Didn't have a car but walked everywhere and Uber'd to Old Town for a pittance compared to what we are used to. Will definately rent again if we decide to head back this way. ##### Mark S.

Thank you, Claus, for meeting us and showing us around. We appreciated the Christmas tree and decorations throughout. Villa Europa location and view was amazing and for us the neighbourhood was perfect. The only negative was the hill, but that what made it unique and if you don't want to cook just across the street, there is an excellent restaurant called Tacoquila.Thanks, Claus, and looking forward to coming back again. ##### Gordon C.

The location is great, with a large market just blocks away, and a fantastic restaurant across the road. The views from both upper and lower decks were wonderful and we enjoyed relaxing and watching the neighborhood activity. Also, most days we saw whales splashing in the bay mid afternoon. Claus is a wonderful host. He drove us to the house for our arrival and made sure we were comfortable. Any issues that arose during our stay were dealt with quickly. And, we appreciated the ride to the airport on our departure day. ##### Glenys B. Stayed 51 nights in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Na F., Richland WA, USA 7 Feb 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Very nice family sized rental Everything was clean and well stocked and everything functioned well for the duration of the trip. The host was very reachable and responsive. Some small restaurants and cafes and wine bars are popping up within really easy walking distance that adds to the convenience. Such a great alternative to the resorts and the overcrowded conditions the areas immediately around the resorts have to endure. But if that is your thing it’s just a few minutes walk to beach and all the beachside attractions. The decks lacked significant sunshine but that’s a time of year thing I’m sure it’s there much of the year just not January. The location near the top of the hill is a challenge for the walk back from the beaches. But it’s literally a couple hundred meters and obviously helps with the great views over the city and down towards the water. I’d recommend this large multi-ensuite family house with no reservation at all. ##### Na F.

Lots of space for everyone on 3 different levels - each one great for different times of the day. Eduardo & Claus were super easy to communicate with even though they were on vacation themselves and the whole process of booking the villa was secure and prompt. This was our second visit to PV and it did not disappoint. Can totally recommend the villa, just not in August when the temps are over 100F - our mistake trying to fit in with our teens summer schedule! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this accommodation. We took lots of walks along the Malecon - something different every time you go; enjoyed the beach - literally at the bottom of the hills, 10 minutes walk (if your order drinks from the Barracuda bar, they will happily let you uses their sun loungers!);went zip lining - El Eden; golfed, scuba dived - PV Sea Dive, charted a boat for the day to Los Arcos for snorkelling and fishing, went to Ocean Grill for a “different” lunch experience and dined out in many of the excellent PV restaurants. ##### Alison L. ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 12 Jan 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Castle on the hillside... Excellent value with an incredible view! This property is ideal for larger groups or families, offering plenty of space and a beautiful setting. Its proximity to food, shopping, and the vibrant Malecon boardwalk is a major plus, making it convenient for exploring the area.We also appreciated the thoughtful provision of beach towels and toys for kids, which added to the overall convenience and enjoyment of our stay.Cleanliness could be improved. Upon arrival, we noticed that certain items, such as the clothes washing machine, required cleaning, as it was grimy. While the property is pet-friendly, ensuring that pet hair is thoroughly removed between guests would improve the overall experience.Maintenance issues were another challenge during our stay. We encountered several interruptions, including gas tank refills (which required multiple visits to bleed the lines), pool cleaning, a repair to the main water line, and a water supply issue with the dishwasher. Additionally, hot water was intermittent for the first three days. While the host responded quickly and efficiently to each problem, the frequency of these issues was disruptive, particularly for a short 5-night stay. Preemptive maintenance could help prevent similar occurrences for future guests.Pillows need replacing, as they are clumpy and uncomfortable. For light sleepers, earplugs are recommended, due to the nearby roosters, dogs, music, and general neighbourhood noise. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Jan 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Peggy M. 5 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy #### We really loved the house! We loved the house!!!! Our very introverted son loved the ‘basement’ room, and we greatly enjoyed the layout and feel of the house!!! It could easily house 3 couples needing some privacy. Our only problem is that IF the power goes out … both the air conditioning and the water pump do not work. Our host said power outages were to be expected and in the dry season the lack of breeze combined with a power outage on 2 evenings made the house very uncomfortable. The power company did replace the transistor the day we left, and the host did offer a partial refund. But the last evening was pretty uncomfortable. Do seriously consider using taxis during your stay!!!! We rented a car as the villa has a garage, but aside from one day where we visited a few beaches, we could have used taxis and probably paid less for the week, and parking is not as available as in the US. (We live in a city with minimal public transport, and so I didn’t consider just using taxis when it would have worked fine for my family.) La Traviata had amazingly good pizza, and the very small convenience store on the same block was a life saver when we needed some aloe for excessive sun! ##### Peggy M.

From the moment we arrived, we felt like we had stepped into a private paradise. The villa is beautifully perched above the city, offering sweeping views and the most breathtaking sunsets we’ve ever seen—every single night felt like a dream.The house itself is immaculate, spacious, and thoughtfully designed. Each room was comfortable and inviting, with great air conditioning that kept us cool and relaxed throughout our stay. The private pool and hot tub were absolute highlights—we spent our mornings soaking up the sun and our evenings unwinding under the stars with a glass of wine in hand.Claus was a phenomenal host—warm, attentive, and incredibly helpful. Not only did he ensure everything was perfect during our stay, but he also went above and beyond afterward by helping us recover a bag we accidentally left in an Uber. He coordinated everything quickly and efficiently, which took a huge weight off our shoulders. I felt terrible that it took me longer than it should have to coordinate the return payment for his kindness, but Claus was nothing but gracious throughout the process.This villa gave us the most romantic and peaceful escape we could have ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3b84ef29-bea9-49d8-b0d5-98bf2456c32e-1749171716293.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8019ac36-ed7a-4642-9683-5961d9eee82a-1749171823404.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f64e9b66-bb0d-440a-8dba-efb86e1c8712-1749171826636.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### J B.

Claus was super accomodating and can offer many upscales ie having catering provided and having some groceries delivered prior to our arrival. Highly recommend and we will be back...thanks to Claus for a wonderful experience. ##### Graham G.
