Our stay at your beautiful villa was absolutely amazing! Alex was a fantastic host—communicative, attentive, and always making sure we knew he was available if we needed anything. His wife Gabby prepared a wonderful dinner and breakfast for us, and her sweet, fun personality added so much to the charm of the home and our experience. The house itself was stunning, even more beautiful than the photos, and our friends and family have been blown away by the pictures we’ve shared. Truly an unforgettable stay!

Does time visitors

We chose the area for proximity to activities and by chance chose villa dulce Vida. We couldn’t have been happier with the house, staff, driver and the many excursions they recommended. Flexibility to change our itinerary made the vacation so much easier. Highly recommend if you’re planning a family or friend stay near coco beach.

In the clouds

A luxury escape for the whole family. Sandy's house was perfect for our week with two adult children. We all had plenty of space while working ' from home'. The proximity to amenities allowed us to enjoy the pool, access to the gym, pickleball, beach and town. Alex, the property manager, was the icing on the cake. His prompt and courteous attention to any request made the week seamless. We already miss the incredible views

Magnificent view!

My friends and I gathered to celebrate our big birthday. It was perfect villa with magnificent view of the Coco bay from every rooms. Having a car is necessary at this villa. It's short drive down to the club and to grocery store to get necessary goods, as well as to the Coco town for lunch and dinners.

Beautiful house overlooking Playa Ocotol bay and Playa del Coco bay. Alex and Gerry were so helpful and friendly arranging transportation, cooking and history lessons about the area. We were very fortunate to see howler monkeys almost everyday, not a usual occurrence. One of our best vacations.

Absolutely amazing!

We knew this place would be amazing based on the pictures, but honestly, they don't do it justice. This home is absolutely beautiful. Between the views and the fully stocked home, the owner's truly thought of everything. Also, the house manager, Alex was extremely friendly and very helpful. While the home is not walkable to a beach, everyday we spent the morning in the pool, then visited one of the many beaches in the area (ranging from 8 mins-1hr drive), then came back in the evening to grill and take in the views. Thank you so much for having us. You made our vacation a 10 out of 10.

An absolutely wonderful home. It is in a gated community with security making rounds every 30 minutes. The views speak for themselves. Every aspect of the home exceeded our expectations. The kitchen, the pool, the bedrooms, the AC.... etc, etc etc. Everything was perfect. The property manager, Alex, was by far the best manager that we have ever dealt with (and we travel using VRBO quite a bit). He was quick to respond to every question/concern that we had. We had one small issue with water pressure in the guest room- Alex had it fixed within hours. The community club house/ pool/pickleball courts/ workout facility and restaurant were wonderful. I can not recommend the home, the community or Coco Beach any higher- 5 star across the board.

This was a beautiful home and lived up to our expectations. What made our stay especially good was Alex and his team. This rental was by far our best experience with timely responses. From arranging a chef to helping us with excursions to arranging transport to and from the airport. Truly a 5 star experience.

This is a hard one. The house is very nice. Terrific views. Alex, the house manager, is a Champion and VERY attentive. The Coco Bay Club very nice. All positives. But the pool barely gets sun and was cold. For 13 days, no one got in. That should be disclosed up front, and isn't. Those alone would reduce rate to a 4 of 5. But while there, the elevator broke. Couldn't be fixed (had to get a part) for 4 days. Out of 13. Those things happen, but when they do a proper response needs to take place. I had 66 - 74 year olds, some with bad parts, going up and down 40-50 stairs multiple times a day unexpectedly. Ownership waived a cleaning fee as compensation!! When I brought up that I thought that was a little inadequate--and we all LOVE begging, don't we--the response was to tell me what a great deal I was getting (the owner stated that my cost per night was the 'rate of a hotel room, and I was getting a house'. And the price she quoted was actually half of what I was paying!!). Ownership's response implied that I should just be grateful and shut up (and where that half price number came from is anybody's guess). To me, the proper response would have been "Oh my God, Ill credit you 2 days.. We are so so sorry". Ultimately, I received a credit that equaled 1/4 of one day. So if all goes well, you'll be fine. If not, don't expect real satisfaction.

10 Days in Playas Del Coco

Beautiful property sitting high above Coco Bay.This VRBO is one of the nicest and best outfitted house rentals we have stayed in as a family. Plenty of kitchen space with a million dollar view out across the infinity pool toward the water! Ample bedroom space for 3 couples each with its own bathroom and shower. Gas grill outside for additional cooking options. Beach towels and bedding provided. About 1.5 hours drive to jungle tours, whitewater rafting, coffee plantations, and Zip lines. Only downside is have to drive 1/2 mile down to the resort restaurant, pickleball courts, and pool because of the steep roads. US based Host and nearby property manager had great connections for tours and adventures. 9 out of 10 for a family trip.

Best week ever!

We has a wonderful stay. Place is better than pictures can present. Alex and Gerry were great - setting up rides anytime we needed, setting up excursions, chef, etc.- did their best to make it the best experience possible. Chef Anita won our hearts with her kind spirit and wonderful cooking skills and Gabby was gracious to fill in for her the first day. Also, excellent meals. The drivers we had: Jonny, Jose and Edgar were very respectful of us and our time and were fun to be around. Everyone went out of their way to make sure we had a great stay.

Villa Dulce Vida

We vacationed at Villa Dulce Vida with 8 adults. Everything from the booking, planning and duration of the visit was perfect. Alex assisted with planning all excursions prior to arriving and presented an itinerary that included every activity we desired. Once we arrived at the house we were greeted by Gerry, who ensured every activity was perfectly executed. We appreciated Gerrys input and responsiveness to all our needs and requests. He really made the stay special. I completely recommend booking this villa for a relaxing accommodation, breath taking views and the most friendly people. Pura Vida!

Fantastic Family Vacation

We had a wonderful time at the villa. Very spacious rooms, unique design and absolutely killer views. It absolutely necessary to have at least one car (depending on how many are in your party) to run down the hill for shopping, restaurants, the Club or visit nearby beaches. The weather was perfect, the villa gets nice breezes and the patio is in the shade most of the day. Nearby favorite beaches for us were Playa Hermosa and Playa Ocotal. We also enjoyed a Trimaran cruise (arranged by house manager Alex) with snorkeling. Our college age kids did a group day trip to the Rincon Volcano area with activities at a resort there and loved it! This was our 2nd time in Costa Rica and we will definitely be coming back.
