"El personal es muy amable, siempre dispuestos a ayudar."

"Excellent property with a beautiful beach. I loved seeing the friendly monkeys around the resort—they were such a fun touch! The only concern I had was a strange smell in my room that I couldn’t quite identify. I also wish I had been able to try the steakhouse, but it was fully booked every night during my stay. Other than that, I had a great time and it’s a wonderful resort. I’ll definitely be coming back!"

"We had a very nice stay at the Dwelling Place. The unit was stocked well and all we had to do was bring ourselves, our belongings and any food we wanted to eat/cook. The A/C upon arrival was set at a comfortable level and was easy to adjust. We were provided w/ extra bath towels, beach towels and toilet paper. The built in shower/conditioner/bodywash dispenser is great and I loved the products they used! Parking is easy and Wifi was available as well.The condo itself was easy to find after the property manager provided a pin for our GPS. It's in a gated community so it felt safe. Ocatal beach (a black sand beach) is literally a 3 minute walk from the unit. There is a kiosk where you can book a tour or water activity from a local guy. People also fish from this beach. Unfortunately, Father Rooster restaurant was closed for vacation during our stay so we did not get to experience that. Fortunately, Coco Beach is less than a 10-min drive away and has many options for food.We did not have a chance to swim in the pool but it literally is 50 steps away from the unit. I did hit my head a few times when the washing machine door slammed on my head. And we had to just buy a bag of ice because the ice trays and the rack in the freezer were rusted. This did not affect our comfort or stay in any way.Communication with the property manager was excellent. Alex helped us get a discount at Diamanté Eco Adventure Park which was great. Would definitely stay here again!"

"In short, it's a place best suited for family retreat "

"My wife and I travel a lot and consider Kimpton's roughing it. This hotel was hands down the best-run place we have ever been to. The view is world-class, and the pool is incredible. Breakfast was great. The menu was more of a guide than a fixed option. The owner was such a great guy and helped us with everything we needed, including car repair. We will 100 percent be back."

"The property and villa was beautiful. Quite property. The villa was updated and spacious with beautiful views. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. Ourdoor patio and balcony had comfortable furniture to enjoy the scenery/nature. One of our favorite memories was getting madsages on our balcony during sunset. Easy booking through the resort for all activities and massages. The secluded beach has beautiful black sand and we got to see howler monkeys while we were enjoying a day on the beach. "

"We just returned from 8 nights at Villa Allamanda from June 4 - June 12, 2025. The house is as beautiful in person as the gorgeous pictures online. The view is spectacular, and we got up at sunrise every morning to watch for wildlife and listen to the birds and howler monkeys. The pool and hot tub were well-maintained and made us feel like we had our own private resort. The kitchen was well-stocked with everything we needed so we could cook breakfast each morning and the occasional lunch or dinner. Playa Ocotal was the closest beach at only a 5 minute drive down the hill and very easy to get to from the house. The sand is mostly black with some tan mixed in, and the water was crystal clear and the perfect temperature. We snorkeled most days by the rocks on both sides of the beach and saw a huge variety of colorful fish, so bring your gear if you like to snorkel. There are foldable lawn chairs (not reclining), a cooler and a few sand toys at the house. There are 2 blue foam pool floats that you can lay on in the pool but no noodles or inflatable tubes, so you might consider bringing some or buying them nearby in Coco. There are plenty of every type of towel. Each bathroom has shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, hand soap, and a hair dryer. Showers are hot with great water pressure. A few of the beds are very firm. The road to the house is very steep, curvy, & narrow, so small 4WD SUV is best to rent. Lissa with Zindis was wonderful and so helpful. Ready to return! Pura Vida! "

"The title says it all. We spent a week in March at this property with 4 adults and 2 kids and it was completely amazing. Not only did it have a breathtaking view of the ocean and of the incredible sunsets each night, the house was comfortable, cool, and quiet. Bonus points for having air conditioning units in each bedroom. We spent hours in the clean refreshing pool before and after activities. The property is about 10 minutes from the beach and amazing restaurants and a short drive to hiking, animal sanctuaries, and all the various adventuring of Costa Rica. I will also never forget wandering outside to see howler monkeys in the trees next to the driveway. The property manager was extremely responsive and helpful. Costa Rica is a magical place and this rental is a perfect place to experience it. "
