Vacation rentals with outdoor seating in Rivas

Nicely appointed home, in the hills of the jungle above the town of Dominical. Mary and Eddy were excellent hosts and responsive to our questions. They even bought new boogie boards for our use! You’ll definitely need a 4x4, but if you’re looking for something quiet and off the beaten path, you’ll enjoy this home. Thank you Mary and Eddy for a nice stay!

El espacio cuenta con todo lo necesario para permanecer durante toda la estadía, ubicación céntrica más no ruidosa, sorprende la calma y tranquilidad tan cerca de la carretera. Supermercados, panaderías, bancos y restaurantes a menos de 5 min en carro y 10 min caminando. La casa es muy iluminada y amplia, las hamacas en la piscina son un gran plus! Probablemente regresemos!

Hermoso hospedaje con una gran ubicación. La piscina es grande, la casa es bastante cómoda y todo impecable. Cindy fue una excelente anfitriona, muy amable en todo momento. Súper recomendado.

La casa es exactamente igual a las fotografías. Cuenta con todos los servicios de la descripción. Desde antes de llegar la respuesta del anfitrión y coanfitrión fue bastante rápida, nos ayudaron con todas las consultas y solicitudes realizadas. Al llegar tuvimos una sorpresa muy bonita de una botella de vino con un chocolate. Llevé a mi perrita ya que la casa está completamente cerrada por lo cual es perfecta para llevar mascotas. La iluminación de la piscina y terraza es muy bonita y hace un ambiente muy agradable.

La propiedad es muy bonita y el lugar muy tranquilo, todo estaba muy limpio y ordenado. La entrada a la playa esta a 1 minuto en carro. Los anfitriones son muy atentos, mi familia y yo quedamos muy felices con el lugar.

We all loved staying at La Casa Bella! This house sits perfectly atop a hill with views right now to the water! The pool was a wonderful place for our two couples to swim, float and chat! Centrally located to Uvita, Playa Hermosa and to the rustic road that leads up into to hills to the best coffee plantations and family farm. We were surprised by all of the bugs and little reptiles that made their way into the house, but by the end of the trip, none of us paid them any mind. It’s Costa Rica, so Pura Vida!

This place is very peaceful and beautiful, perfect for our small vacation in Costa Rica. Uber worked pretty well and location is great, we felt right at home, the salt water pool is perfect and very gentle on the eyes and skin. The house has two external showers that were useful and also 1.5 bathrooms. The fridge is big enough. The garden is beautiful. Highly recommend.

The house was 5 stars! Well equipped, beautiful views, we saw monkeys, birds, crabs. Loved the shower and bathroom windows view to the jungle. Forest was a great host and answered all of our questions.

Great place to stay, this is our second visit and thoroughly enjoyed it. Even got to see monkeys playing in the trees. :) Thank you for the hospitality!

We stopped here for one night after landing in San Jose on our way to the next location. The driveway was a little intimidating (we did it in the dark) but doable. María was very responsive and helpful getting us checked in, and the space was clean and comfortable. The views were incredible, overlooking the city was a pretty surreal welcome to Costa Rica!

Nous avons passé un très beau séjour de deux semaines au logement avec notre bébé d’un an. Impeccable, souci du détail, sentiment de sécurité, lit extrêmement confortable, cadre relaxant avec la belle vue sur la végétation, les oiseaux et la superbe piscine. Teri et Richard étaient sympathiques et réactifs à nos demandes. Les vélos mis à notre disposition nous ont été utiles pour faire nos emplettes au village, notamment pour aller au grand supermarché. Le seul bémol est que nous avons été incommodés durant quelques jours par la très forte musique d’un groupe qui avait loué le studio de yoga voisin, mais apparemment que ce groupe n’y était que de passage pour une semaine et qu’il ne sera plus le bienvenu. Hormis cette malchance, nous avons adoré notre séjour et nous recommandons Villa Bodhi Soul sans hésiter!

I love Susana!!! We love her!! She is the best, and so is her beautiful family. Home was great and outdoor living was even better, I cooked outside daily, showered outside with squirrel monkeys, a horse and the jungle and my kid and mom who can’t swim enjoyed the heck out of the pool! You are 15 minutes away from Manuel Antonio. Everything you will need is a walk away from groceries and food. There was nothing we needed she did not accommodate, she was our host, friend, bug killer, chauffeur (cause we couldn’t find her day 1, it was dark and late when we made it, she said stop, send me your location and met up with us and we followed her home), and the best heart and energy!! I genuinely think you are a Rockstar Susana!!! I will always come look for you when I’m in Costa Rica and if you come to Florida call me girl !!!! 💙❤️💙🙏🏽😊🎉🥰

Amazing place in the jungle. Views are outstanding! Cristina is an amazing proprety manager. She helped us everytime we needed. Would definetly recommend and come back !

La anfitriona muy amable y comunicativa. El lugar precioso, una vista estupenda del mar, muy ordenado, limpio, muy tranquilo, la naturaleza hermosa.

Our stay at this property was absolutely incredible, with a breathtaking view! The room was clean, beautifully decorated, and well-equipped. The concierge was welcoming, and we appreciated for a hot shower and fresh towels. The pool area was stunning and well-maintained.However, there are a few areas that could be improved. It good to have coffee or tea for guest, and we were surprised to find there was no iron. Additionally, some house rules were unexpected, such as the prohibition on drones and no BBQs, despite them being shown in the photos. Although the balcony is shared with other guests, we were fortunate to have it mostly to ourselves. The bar chairs on the balcony were not very comfortable, and there was only one patio chair for the two of us. We also felt a bit uncomfortable with the presence of several cameras on the property, including one right of our apartment. Despite these minor issues, our overall experience was fantastic! We would definitely stay again!

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.)

I only stayed one night this time but could have spent many more nights here. A very nice place close to everything! This place is inpecably clean and fresh- the apartment as well as area. Comfy beds! The staff was highly communicative before arrival and very welcoming. I appreciated being able to keep my luggage stored after check out. Again: highly service minded staff. Lovely! Thank you so much and until next time. Pura vida!

We loved the place. Everything was as described. Very clean and organized. We had no issues checking in. The guards were very nice and friendly so we felt very safe. We had an issue with one of the sinks and Iliana took care of it within 20 mimutes. We appreciated her fast response. We were confortable at all times just like home.

Nos enamoramos del lugar , todo impecable , más lindo que en la foto , la piscina un plus! Volveremos felices !

La estadia fue rapida pero el lugar estaba limpio y acorde a lo que se encuentra en el anuncio. La comunicación fue adecuada. Completamente recomendado.

Diana’s place was absolutely amazing. Pictures do not do it justice. The views were incredible in the morning with all the glass windows. Diana was the Most helpful host we have had, giving us extra blankets, binoculars for the kids, and beach chairs and toys. U will not regret this stay! Cant wait to come stay again.

Hermoso lugar, limpio, hermosas vistas, el atardecer se puede ver desde la piscina y está cerca de Dominical De preferencia carros altos o 4x4 por la entrada

I came for a yoga and meditation retreat. This was the perfect 1 bedroom home to base myself, kitchen to cook each day, nice hill to go for morning walking and hikes, large lounge and balcony to practice my morning yoga. Good internet to do my work at the computer. Good air conditioning to keep cool when in the house. Lizzet was always responsive and helpful. High recommend.

This place is exactly as it looks and is described, which makes it a good Airbnb and good value (at the price as of April 2025 at least). Carles and his co-host communicate well and everything about the place is easy (easy to find, check-in, care for, etc). It isn't fancy but it is nice/well-built (small things like the shower water doesn't get all over the bathroom like with many similar shower setups) and comfortably arranged for 1-2 people with 2 desks for working etc. Would absolutely return. Downsides, if you want to know them: the immediate surrounding area is nothing special (it's in a nondescript small development), and there was quite a bit of noise in the morning, including starting at 5:30am on Saturday (this may be temporary/construction). It didn't interfere with my enjoyment, but it is good to know.
