"It was so fantastic! Really suited our family well, had a wonderful experience at Casa Serena. Enjoyed all the outdoor living, including all the critters! Grandkids were thrilled with all that there was to do there without TV!! Simon was great and made sure we were comfortable and kept the grounds and pool in pristine condition. Overall a great place to be for sure with just the right amount of rustic characteristics of Costa Rica!We thank Maximo very much, he was great to work with. This truly...
