Reviews
This property is top notch in every way. The attention to detail in architecture, interior design, and furnishings is outstanding. The views from every room – breathtaking, and there was yet another dynamic to celebrate, the warm and courteous staff. We were pampered by the 24-hour concierge service and the joyful kitchen staff who offered complimentary breakfast each morning. Daily our group of 14 guests would praise different aspects of the villa and thoughtfulness of the staff. Kudos to the visionaries behind the Villa Punto De Vista compound, as they have created a true haven to celebrate PURA VIDA! ”

Architecturally speaking, this may be one of the most beautiful, if not THE most beautiful place I’ve ever stayed in. Every detail within the home has been well thought through. The intention of the villa was to combine elements of a 5-star hotel through the service, elegance, sophistication and ambience, but provide a private space for an intimate experience. And the blend of these two worlds is done flawlessly. The villa’s location will wow you, it is in close proximity to all the best activities Costa Rica has on offer including ATV, horse riding, waterfall exploration, whale watching, surfing and more. From the vila, there are native friends staring at you from their trees just a few feet away. I’m talking about the sloths, the three different types of monkeys, toucan birds, iguanas and other stunning wildlife Costa Rica is known for. The greatest part of my stay within the villa was the warmth and the care received by the staff. Within days the staff felt like family, attending to my every need and desperately wanting to ensure I had the greatest experience possible in their country. If you book this villa, get ready for one of the best weeks of your life.”
