We stayed one month in the Casita, our first visit to Costa Rica. The Casita was truly a quality structure with beautiful architectural elements. The view to the Gulf was spectacular. Our hosts, great!

Lovely casita -- rain or shine
We spent 2+ weeks in this lovely casita. It looks just like the photos. Everything was designed and built to a professional's standards. The attention to detail is amazing. Hard to believe this is a rental and not someone's dream home. The place is perfect for a couple – everything you need on the main floor. Just FYI, additional sleeping options (shared) in the loft mean coming downstairs for the bathroom.
Location is great – 10-15 minutes drive from downtown San Ramon, where you can find grocery stores, restaurants, and more. Beautiful long-distance views to the coast come and go as the clouds roll in and out. You're surrounded by lush gardens. The kitchen is well equipped if you want to cook. Even includes a wide range of spices, not surprising since Andy is a chef.
The owners, Andy and Nancy, are delightful. They are extremely responsive to anything you mention. They're also a wealth of information about the area. Loved our stay here and would happily return.
HEADS UP: got an invoice on our last day for for Costa Rica taxes (not collected by vrbo) for our 15-night stay. Nice that they're being “legal” but still surprised since it was 13.5%. The other vrbo we stayed at included this tax in the nightly rate and we paid it in our reservation.

We Were Conned — DO NOT stay here
We spent one night in a bug infested, unkept place. It is a place that looks just like the photos but is not a place we would ever consider staying in, considering the following:
Flying & crawling insects all over the inside. And I’m talking dozens of insects that only an entomologist would like.
No WiFi - owner said it might have blown out nights ago in a storm.
Kitchen — no hot water.
Drain not working in the inside shower /tub. The bugs in there drown & were swirling around - gross.
Screens on windows have major gaps that let in bugs when bedroom & other windows are left open. No screen on front door. And since there’s no air conditioning, the windows should be open. We left them shut cause there were already enough bugs in there. Pulled back the sheets and my wife yelled “spider”!
Skeleton key lock on sliding glass door entry! It’s a high theft area so I would expect better than that.
And no, we did not ask for nor were we offered a discount for the non functional items. We stayed one night although we paid for six nights & moved ourselves to the Marriott in San Jose, about 40 minutes away. Inconvenient but the Marriott is safe, clean and has a/c, hot water and WiFi.
If I could sue the owners I would.

Our month at Casita Vivace
The casita is extremely comfortable, well appointed and very clean. The view from the comfy swinging chairs on the porch is stunning - gorgeous sunsets every night. We loved the location in San Ramon - away from heavily populated tourist areas yet close enough to Montevere, Arenal and La Fortuna for day trips. So many wonderful authentic cultural day trips to explore in San Ramon. Good resturaunts and easy access to grocery and produce shopping. And one of the best features of the property are the hosts - Nancy and Andy. Lovely people and always available to help if needed. And there were multiple times they helped us out . Highly recommend this property.

Beautiful view!
The views from the upstairs balcony and down stairs were amazing! House was cozy and had what we needed. Andy and Nancy were gracious and even invited us to a lunch with homemade pizza on Christmas. Surrounding neighborhood was pretty with kind neighbors that we enjoyed making friends with. We will definitely stay there again when we visit our daughter.

Best VRBO ever!
My husband son and I stayed at Andy and Nancy's Casita Vivace and had a wonderful and relaxing time! They were very warm hosts. The house was well appointed and had everything that we needed. I can say it was by far one of the best vrbo stays that we have had. I highly recommend!

Très bel endroit .

Propriétaires aimables qui nous ont invité à prendre un jour dans leur superbe villa.
A recommander sans faute. La température est plus fraîche a San Ramon que sur le bord de la mer et on est a environ 1 heure de Puntarenas.
Nous avons adoré notre séjour dans cette maison.

Excellent Location, Climate was Pleasant in January
Property was in an excellent location, close to restaurants, bars and downtown San Ramon. The climate was pleasant, really no need for air conditioning in January. There was a constant breeze blowing through the casita, we were thankful for that since there are no air conditioning units in the casita.

Beautiful location
Gorgeous mountain location with beautifully done landscaping that attracts lots of butterflies and hummingbirds. If you love a gorgeous view this is the place to go. We even had a visit from a group of White Faced Capuchin including a mommy with tiny baby on her back. Due to our very late arrival we decided to have the owner make us a delicious breakfast and we were not disappointed.

Sleeping In The Clouds
Casita Vivace is wonderful. Spacious rooms, incredible view of the valley below all the way to Punta Arenas - which is an hour's drive away. Nancy and Andy are caring and attentive hosts. If you are staying in the San Ramon area, you must choose this property! Arrive during daylight, though.

Pristine accommodations with a breathtaking view!
Enjoy this spacious and comfortable Casita while you explore the Costa Rican terrain. You will be warmly welcomed by your hosts Nancy and Andy, who accommodated our every need. Have coffee while taking in the view from the hanging porch chairs, greet the locals while you stroll the neighborhood, relax and read a book while lounging on the second floor sectional, and enjoy an outdoor shower at the end of the day. We had such a great time, we didn't want to leave!

Best house in six weeks!
This house was extremely clean with the amenities North Americans are used to. Plenty of hot water with a great outdoor shower. Andy and Nancy are gracious hosts who helped us explore the San Ramon area. Do not miss Andy’s cooking. We are already planning our next trip. You will not regret renting this house.

Lovely home with every thing we needed
The property was clean and everything was in good working order. The kitchen is fully equipped for cooking meals. The home is very practical with just enough space for a family of 4-6. The owners are very welcoming and accommodating. Most of the attractions we did was about a 45 minute drive away with one being 2 hours away. The views are amazing!

Amazing vacation
Andy and Nancy are fantastic hosts - they provided us with lots of information and guidance - where to go, what to do!! Sunset drinks/ party invite was sooooo nice - ceviche, watermelon slushies and red wine and of course the unbelievable sunset. The casita is fully equipped with everything for a perfect vacation - even an outdoor shower and a bathtub does it get any better than that? Nancy and Andy have thought of everything. We will be back!

Great stay
The casita was wonderful, clean and well-appointed. Upscale appliances, comfy furniture, and the second story loft was a great place to hang out. The outdoor shower was Wonderful! Even with our drop-in gecko. LOL
We were so pleased to be invited to a sunset cocktail party at the big house where we met other ex-pats, locals and enjoyed good conversation and GREAT ceviche (thanks, Andy!)
Andy and Nancy offered a wealth of information and sightseeing ideas and were genuine and excellent hosts. Their three little dogs were delightful as well.
We experienced no issues with our internet connection; a problem reported in the past but that has been fully corrected with strong, fast service.
Folks should be aware that there is not a television set in the casita - this was not an issue for us, given the beautiful scenery, multitude of birds and beautiful sunsets.
We highly recommend this wonderful property.
