The Domain of the King of the Mountain
Kim and Rene are amazing hosts, they are super friendly people. The house is equipped with all necessary stuff to do your vacations a success. I'd definitely come back. Extremely recommended!

Cozy Beach House
The house was perfect. The privacy of the gates was awesome. The beds were comfortable. Sergio had great communication. The air conditioning worked great. The house was fully Equipped with anything you needed to cook with. Definite bonus,It had a washing machine and the place to hang out your clothes. This is not a negative,but there are so many keys! So many doors to get locked out of if you were not careful. There were like 7 or 8 separate keys. We were extremely careful... We figured out a system that would work for us. Check-in and check out Went extremely smooth. On a typical night, One or two crabs would make it in the outside kitchen. No big deal , we just popped them back outside. It's Costa Rica after all, PURA VIDA. One more thing, The location of sergio's place was amazing. This was the Only way to walk to the beach. The beach is very close by the way. Thank you Sergio.

Coastal Comfort: BBQ & Beach Access near Matapolo
A beautiful place!! The house is quite large, comfortable, with patio and large and beautiful green areas, and play area for children. Close to the entrance to Playa Linda.

The White House Ocean View Vacation Rental
We really enjoyed it as a family. Everything was to our complete satisfaction.

BIME Del Mar Casita
Love the place! Monkeys right outside the window, ocean views and surrounded by jungle. The house is a large 1 bedroom with a large living room with cozy big couch, balcony off of the living room and big bedroom and bathroom. Everything we needed and more so will definitely keep it at the top of our list for another visit - very soon I hope.

Mohe's Cabin 3
This stay was a fun adventure—like camping but with the comfort of a room! It would make a great camping-style getaway for a family. The location was fantastic, just about five minutes from the beach and with eateries in both directions. A couple of things to keep in mind: there’s only a fan for cooling, and the water is cold, but after a day at the beach, it’s actually quite refreshing! Overall, a unique and enjoyable experience for those looking for a simple, nature-inspired stay. Can't recommend enough.

Oceanview Jungle Art Villa in Dominical
This place is absolute heaven! The view from the balcony is to die for and my children loved the pool. Everything was just perfect, the house is amazing and the decor is really stunning. We spent a month here and it was one of the best months of our lives. Dominicalito is out of this world - jungle and beach!!! My daughter went surfing everyday and there is local football for my son. The surrounding area means you can scuba dive, horse ride along the beach and there is a stunning waterfall 5 min walk. I ran on the beautiful beach everyday and the locals were just fabulous inviting us to the local Kareoke on the beach 🏖️ the host was so helpful and we had no problems as everything ran smoothly in the house. Security is so professional Nd checks everyone in and out. We didn’t have a car and found walking really invigorating - especially up the hill. If you love nature you couldn’t ask for more - watch the monkeys at breakfast from the balcony - thanks so much for this epic adventure ❤️

Uvita 3 Bdrm Home! Walk to beach and restaurants!
Pura Vida - Great host and location. Walkable to the beach and several restaurants. Calm oasis in the back yard, where we could see Tucans, howler monkeys and an array of birds! Host is very responsive and we also appreciated having air conditioning as well as a washer / dryer. Uvita is a great place to visit with a ton of fun activities, and having the small pool onsite was really nice to escape the hot midday sun. The full kitchen is also a bonus. Modern, easy - with good WiFi and a good host. The howler moneys did wake us up in the morning, but that was actually pretty cool alarm clock - although they sounded like a sick dog!!! We stayed at 3 places, all of which said you’d see moneys, never saw any and we saw them all from the comfort of the shaded porch here.

Villas Bodhi Soul - Balinese Pool Unit #3 and #4
Beautiful place very close to the beach! Host gave clear instructions for check-in. For a moment the water went out but the co-host quickly solved the problem.

Blue Moon - Luxury Beach Villa
Beautiful home and surroundings. The beds are all super comfortable and 3 private rooms. A short walk to the beach, in gorgeous jungle. Can't wait to return.

Villa Del Mar 3-180° Ocean View Private Community
Very clean and cozy spot. Small, but perfect for a couple. Location provides spectacular views. In all reality, the perch this place is on makes the place feel 10x the actual size. Perfect distance to access Dominical and Beaches. Hosts are very thorough, and very communicative. Could not have asked for more.

Magnificent Getaway with Ocean-Mountain Views
The view from this villa is incredible. Looking out from the patio, you can see all the way to the ocean. Our concierge, Oscar, was incredibly responsive and kindly worked with us to check in when we arrived later than expected. He also left us some delicious mango and watermelon! The location listed is slightly inaccurate to where the villa actually is, but it still provided easy access to the main Dominical area. Also, definitely bring 4 wheel drive as the hosts suggest, as it's a steep climb to the house. We would definitely rent from this group again!

Freedom House Bahía Ballena Lodging
The place is just like one in the photographs. Magda's service is impeccable. Very attentive. She let us in a little earlier and gave us important help with local merchant. Thank you Magda!!

Private Suite 103 with shared pool and BBQ area
We loved this place! It’s way better than the photos! The plants are beautiful! The pool is lovely and deep. We loved the space! Bathroom is great. We liked where it was downtown Dominical. Easily walkable. We highly recommend this spot! (Busy roads don’t bother us.)

Casa Ginger - Just a 2 minute walk to the beach!
Casa Ginger is fantastic. My second stay. Excellent location and layout for a small group. Walkable to beach and Domenical. Several surf beaches close by. Close to fishing, ATV, Reptilandia, food restaurants and lots of yoga and wellness opportunities.

Matapalo Beach House
Perfect, so I would summarize my experience, excellent hosts, friendly, always in communication, attentive, helpful, among others very good qualities. The place is wonderful, private, safe, with an incredible air of peace, very close to everything you need (supermarkets, restaurants, beaches). The house is very beautiful, spacious, tidy, full air, fully equipped, nothing more to ask for. Geizel and her husband's recommendations, super accurate, matapalo beach and Linda are beautiful, Dominical has an excellent atmosphere, the restaurant la Langoza Feliz 10/10, and so many that didn't give us time, but we'll be back very soon. In short, it is a place that far exceeded my expectations, mega recommended. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Upscale 4b/4b great location w/ breathtaking views
Amazing house and location! We saw lots of wild life which our children loved! Just made it into the property with our rental car, the gravel does make it tricky to get up the drive way so we had to reverse the car up as it wouldn’t make it by driving up so something to be aware of! But overall stunning property and worth the extra drive 😍

Casa Truenos
Stephen’s place was an awesome place to spend four nights. It’s centrally located where downtown, dominical beach, dominicalito and Hermosa were all just minutes of driving. We walked to downtown dominical often, but you do have to walk on the main road to get there as far as we could tell! It wasn’t bad though, just have to be safe as cars do travel quickly on that road! The house was perfect for two but could easily fit three or more as the couch is a pull out and so comfy! The space is private and has an amazing kitchen equipped with everything if you like to cook. We couldn’t have been happier with our stay, thanks Stephen! We’d definitely return next time we’re in the area!
