Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.

Perfect view, full service and helpful staff!
On behalf of all the guests, who were celebrating my father's 70th birthday, I wish to thank the villa's owner, the manager and all the staff members for the unforgettable experience! All our needs were met; breakfasts, lunches and dinners were provided with impeccable quality whenever we required. Special thanks to Juan Carlos for always being ready to provide peace of advice in regard to excursions and all kinds of arrangements; I do remember how he helped me arrange a flower delivery for my sister who also happened to celebrate her birthday around that time. That wasn't an easy task for me considering my modest Spanish skills. By the way, my mother enjoyed practicing her Spanish with all the staff members and they were always patient and welcoming while communicating with her; I was just too shy to follow suit and preferred English.
Thanks to one of the previous commenters for mentioning the dogs; they are really present and super friendly to all of us!
Of course, we all dream to come back; however, that would be a challenging task to book some time again due to this villa's popularity and this popularity is, I should say, well deserved!
Just a little advice to all future travellers, consider taking a local taxi instead of trying to rent a car and drive it because the roads in the area are... um... not for everyone.

Amazing place
The most amazing and beautiful place we were staying in before, and we are heavy travelers. The villa looks much better than in the pictures because it’s impossible to get that feeling of tranquility and awesome view in the pictures. We were a group of nine, as many of our friends couldn't make it, but even with more people, I feel that everyone would find the space and comfort. All people we met there were extremely friendly and helpful with any questions or details. Juan, the manager, was available every day and organized everything we may need from all beautiful tours to help when our rented car was stuck on the road. We used the service of the private chef Miguel and bartender, Emanuel. Both were very professional and fun to communicate, the food was fresh and delicious every time. We also had a housekeeper lady, Merlin, who did a great job of keeping our villa clean. I wish we could stay longer, but the villa was booked already, hope will be able to come again.

Waking up to this view every morning was like living in Paradise!
There were 10 of us and we had such an amazing time! Juan Carlos was the absolute best host he made sure we had everything we needed from transportation, groceries, he even came right away when the water cut off and we were so grateful for him and his staff, bartender Manuel made the best Pina Coladas ever! The views are stunning! you will not be disappointed
The area has howler monkeys which were a joy to see
We had a chef for 2 days and food was delicious!
The only cons I have were;
1. Kitchen was not clean-the refrigerator and cabinets were dirty and didn't seem sanitized
2. You cannot flush soiled toilet paper in the toilet- so that was something we wish we knew in advance it was really nasty to have to put tissue with feces in a small plastic garbage pail --yuck!

Amazing Time In Costa Rica
Stayed at Air thisBNB with 13 other women. We were totally tailored too from excursions to our own private chef and bartender. Housekeeper attended to us daily. The views of sunrise and sunset were amazing. There was a breeze almost everyday. I swam laps in the pool everyday. Town was sweet with shops and we loved the ice cream shop on the corner. Juan Carols even helped us save one homeless dog while we were there. Felt right at home! Open air property that was fully equipped with everything you need. Had a wonderful experience with the entire staff. Looking forward to going back next year! The photos are actual real life to what we experienced! Can't say that for all others I have stayed at. Wonderful restaurants near by! Just ask Juan Carlos....we loved it all!

Every thing you have ever wanted in a vacation home. And more!
This Villa is situated on top of a mountain! The views are stunning. The staff are tremendously helpful. There was nothing that Juan Carlos (the house manager) wouldnt do for us. We had Marco for a cook and Manuel as a bartender, both were delightful and went out of their way to help with anything we needed. This home was such a delight to stay in.

My happy place
Even though the photos are breathtaking the real view will leave you speechless. This was my second stay at this villa and it is truly what dreams are made of. I do yearly women retreats and this place has made everything so wonderful. the staff are family to me now. Anything you need from taxis, to tours to basically anything you can think of the wonderful house manager is there for you. This place will forever be in my heart and a big big shout out to Juan Carlos who has made everything so perfect and Kelly the owner who has always came to greet me when I stay. This is a gem and I am so glad you have found it. BOOK IT

Made us feel at home
The house and staff were great. Juan Carlos checked in on us daily and was helpful in organizing grocery pick-ups, golf cart rentals, local transportation and addressing all our needs. One of the AC units was not working properly and it was fixed before the end of the day. The house is clean and comfortable, the landscaping is lovely, and the view is unbelievable. We will be returning.

The most perfect way to relax and enjoy family or Friends.
Kelly,s Villa is awesome!! We where a group of 10 friends and had an absolute great time. Juan Carlos took very good care of all of our needs he did shopping for us when we needed, he booked outings and was there when ever we had questions about the country, history, or wild life. We did a rain forest hike with Ray who was a very knowledgeable naturalist with the enthusiasm of the late Steve Irwin.
We also used the Villa's cook Marco and bar tender Manual for four day's, meals where very good and well presented. And of course the drinks, that goes with out saying.
No dis appointment here at all !

Spectacular Ocean-Views
The pictures and description do not do it justice. It is more impressive in person. Villa sits high on mountain cliff overlooking the ocean with the most beautiful sunsets you have ever seen. My family of 13 adults and 3 small children had plenty of room. I have never stayed in such an open outdoor living concept. Perfect for large groups. We loved it very much that we could all relax together and not feel cramped into a indoor space but rather outdoor covered space. Very unique concept with living, family, dining rooms and bar all outside. Only kitchen and bedrooms/bathrooms inside. All rooms were very large and nicely decorated. All with great AC and hot water. The kitchen was huge fully stocked with everything like your own home. The pool was huge with swim up bar and a covered gazebo. The grounds all very beautifully landscaped and well taken care of. I cant say enough about this property, a 10 for sure. Equally as impressive was the on site manager Juan Carlos. Super nice, knowledgeable and friendly guy who looked after are every need. He planned all our tours and transportation and was a wealth of helpful information on where to go and what to see in the area. Even went above call of duty when one of the children got sick. He told us where to go and met us at hospital to make sure everything was okay and if we needed anything. One night we had a bad storm roll in with lighting and damaged the cable box and TV. He had a working replacement the following day so we could watch the NBA finals. Also the maid Maylin was incredible. Super sweet and nice. She kept everything super clean. She made sure we had coffee ready every morning and evenings and we even had her do our laundry before we left. We even contracted the chef services, highly recommend. The food was top notch and presentation was culinary. Everyone loved the food even the kids. Having an onsite manager/maid really enhanced the experience and feel of a all inclusive resort in a single family home atmosphere. Last but not least was the owner Kelly responded to all my questions in timely manner and was very helpful with details and suggestions. She emailed all needed instructions and booking instructions. Made the whole process that much more easy and effortless. From our entire family we want to thank all for making our vacation special and memorable.

Spectacular stay
Three families (6 adults and 9 children) just arrived home from the most spectacular visit to Costa Rica and the villa vista de Oro. We can not say enough about the staff, the food or the property. It is a five star affair from start to finish. The personal touch by Juan Carlos, Marcos, Manuel and Merling is one of a kind. We had lunch and dinner prepared by them for the entire trip and it was worth every penny. The excursions were well planned and executed by the companies used. The property has the best view of all the surrounding properties and the outdoor living is perfect. I highly recommend a stay at the villa and utilization of all the staff available.
