Totally amazing experience! Thanks to all the staff for making our vacation memorable. A special thanks to Martina for the home-made chocolate chip cookies!
We had a great time! Thank you all for everything. This has been of the best vacations & experiences of my life. Thanks for keeping the drinks coming.
You guys have made our trip to your beautiful country even more beautiful. We have enjoyed everything from the small trips we made, to simply being here with you. Every meal was an experience. Not just for the food itself but the timeliness to the presentation to the attention to us. I can’t remember the names of the cocktails. Just that they were all perfect. How will I survive without them!
The room, the food, the hospitality- impossible to top! Thanks to the great staff! Hope to see you again!

Our first time in Costa Rica! We were not sure what August would be like but it’s beautiful! Some sun, some overcast and some rain. The property is so amazing! We feel like we are in the jungle with the animals and love the ocean. Everyone is so friendly and accommodating. The food was excellent. A special out to Stephanie who made the best drinks and runs an efficient relaxing home! She should be promoted.
After close to 30 years of visiting it never gets old! I had my family together for 7 days and it was an absolute blessing! This villa will always be my favorite spot! The staff was AMAZING! The food was absolutely delicious! The service was off the charts. Many memories made……….. surfing, snorkeling, fishing, sunset cruise, hiking, swimming and taking in the million-dollar views! We will be back!!

Another wonderful vacation in Costa Rica and already planning the next trip. We all are enamored with Puerto Escondido and Puesta del Sol. Thanks to Martina, Nury and Stephanie for an amazing week. We aimed to relax and that is exactly what we did. Some massages, great food, naps, pool time and a great cocktail hour in town……….nothing better.
We cannot say enough about how wonderful our stay was at Puerto Escondido. Stephanie, Martina and Nury are the best. Warm and welcoming yet professional…..they were the key to our experience.

Costa Rica is truly amazing and Katie and Rob were wonderful in setting up our trip.
Our first trip to Costa Rica was amazing! The villa and staff made our week so relaxing!! The food was fabulous and we have never stayed at a cleaner villa. Stephanie & staff anticipated our every need. Kojakc and his crew had wonderful activity suggestions and got us there and home safely each time. We loved seeing the monkeys all around. The views were incredible, nothing like it! We even saw whales one afternoon from the pool deck. We will definitely be back!
Pura Vida!
Back in Costa Rica for another vacation adventure. We arrived and were greeted with smiles. We were also very excited to meet Martina again. Martina’s cooking is fabulous. We experienced Martina’s cooking 2 years ago. Stephanie provided great smoothies & drinks. Nury kept everything clean and laundered our clothes too. Kojakc and his crew got us where we needed to go . Another great time in Costa Rica! Pura Vida!

Here comes another raving review!! One of the best vacations we have ever experienced. This was one of the first vacations where we all relaxed the moment we passed through the front door and stayed that way until we left. The staff was phenomenal. Fabian, Martina and Nury cared for our every want and need. We are already planning our next trip to stay at the exact location. So luxurious.!
This is by far the best vacation we have been on. We came with 3 couples and had such an amazing time. The villa was more than we have hoped for, the staff far exceeded our expectations. Fabian took care of everything. Martina made every meal special and was so delicious. Nury took care of all our needs without us asking and the villa was beautiful everyday. Kojakc arranged everything for us without ever leaving the villa. The staff, villa, and everything was 10 stars if I could give it. We will be back for sure! Thank you! Pura Vida!
By far one of the best family vacations, we could of had. The home was beautiful, and the views are something out of a dream. We really wanted a place to come and relax and unwind. We couldn’t have found a better place than Puerto Escondido.
Fabian was so attentive making sure we had everything we needed. We were greeted with the most delicious drinks by him. He was always making us anything we wanted throughout the day.
Martina was the best cook. Every meal got better and better. We did not want to go out to eat because we knew we wouldn’t get anything better. From the fresh fruit & juice to all of the delicious fresh food for all 3 meals.
It was 5 stars. Nury always kept the house so clean, and our bedrooms were just like new every night. She pressed some clothes for and made sure our laundry was cleaned daily.
We felt very spoiled this week and will be back soon and recommending to all of our friends and family.
This trip was truly exceeded our expectations! The view was breathtaking and truly something I will never forget. The villa is so comfortable, the pool is amazing but most importantly the 3 wonderful people that took care of us during our stay. Martina’s food was delicious! Our favorite were the tacos, the porkchop and the guacamole. Fabian was so kind and helpful. Nury was so sweet and worked so hard. Always has a smile on her face!
Oliver & Kojakc took great care of us and made us feel so welcome!
We are counting the day days until we can visit beautiful Costa Rica again! Thank you for this once in a lifetime vacation!
Villa Puerto Escondido is spectacular! Thank you for sharing your amazing home with our family.
This was an incredible vacation! The staff-Fabian, Martina & Nury were exceptional. We especially enjoyed the spa treatments at the villa, the boat cruise & beach BBQ and the waterfall tour! Tonight’s last dinner was better than any restaurant! We can’t wait to come back!
Love, Carolyn, Joe, Belle, George and Mary Claire

This trip by far exceeded our expectations. The villa is so comfortable and we loved the amazing view! The pool and the shaded part of the porch was so inviting. Kojakc helped plan the rainforest and jungle tours plus transportation. We also did a large catamaran with a very large group. So much fun. Flamingo Beach was our favorite highlight of all! We loved Fabian’s attention to detail He made the best drinks for us all & drove us around. Martina’s meals were fabulous. Our favorites were tacos, quesadillas’, nachos, soups and the best desserts-flam, chocolate cake & crepes. Nury was so kind and cheery. We loved her energy. Her hard work was so appreciated. To wrap it up, it was a top favorite vacation for our family. We hope to be back! Pura Vida!
