We had such an exceptional trip. As a family of 9, ranging in age from 78-9 years old, finding a place that appealed to everyone wasn't easy, but Costa Rica, and specifically this house, hit it out of the park. First, the view is epic and the photos just can't really capture how awesome it is. The house feels like a hotel — every room has a balcony and a view and an en suite bathroom, the living room is so grand, we could all sit on the couch comfortably, and then there's Armelin who cooked up a delicious spread every morning (and even packed us breakfast burritos to-go on days we had to leave early). Guillermo, our Star Villas concierge, was clutch. He was on top of everything and helped us schedule in-home chefs and activities. Playa Hermosa is a pretty small town, and you'll need to drive to larger grocery stores etc, and the roads are steep and pretty rough in some areas so I highly recommend hiring a driver through Star Villas. Our driver Livingston was great, he made some of the longer drives more interesting by pointing out different agricultural things and even wildlife on our Palo Verde boat ride. There's literally nothing I would change about this place, 100% worth it.
