We had an absolutely fantastic stay at this property and a huge part of the experience was thanks to the incredible proptery manager. From the moment we booked, communication was clear, prompt and genuinely welcoming. He went above and beyond to make sure every detail of our stay was comfortable. The home itself was exactly as described - clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed. But what really stood out was the level of care and attention the manager provided. He was always available to answer questions and made us feel completely at ease throughout our visit.We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a stree free enjoyable getaway

The pictures don’t do justice to how beautiful and large the house is. Amazing art throughout! Beautiful view. We had a chef come for 3 breakfasts and 2 dinners. The kitchen was fully equipped. We had 7 family members and the 5 bedrooms and separate bathrooms for 4 of the bedrooms plus powder room gave us lots of privacy. The hot tub was great. You are at the top of a mountain with beautiful views but you cannot walk to a beach, so the description of the property is somewhat deceptive. It’s an easy drive to several different beaches though. We loved our stay. Highly recommend this property.

The house was absolutely perfect—far better than the pictures in the listing! We were a group of 9 (5 adults and 4 kids), and it fit our needs beautifully. The kids couldn’t get enough of the pool and loved being so close to the beach. The adults appreciated the convenience of a very short drive to the beach and the chance to truly relax without having to worry about a thing.We did have one minor hiccup when the water was off for a few hours, but we simply headed to the beach and by the time we returned, it was back on. Alex, the house manager, was fantastic—attentive, responsive, and made sure our stay was completely stress-free.Truly a perfect getaway. Pura Vida!

Amazing place, not near beach

We loved the place. It was huge and clean. There were 9 of us and we had so much extra room! Super clean and well equipped.Our only gripe was that the posting made it seem a lot closer to the beach than it was. It’s a 5 minute drive to the beach, not walkable. The pin drop makes it look like it’s a block from the beach.

House was amazing and the view was jaw dropping! Pictures online did not come close to what this looked like in person. Location was great and pretty central for shopping, restaurants, local fishing and several local beaches - all about 10 to 15 minutes away. House is also in a very secure gated community. Only thing we didn’t get to see were the little white faced monkeys, despite several early morning trips to the recommended beach in search of them. Zindis did a nice job of helping us book excursions, provided an itinerary for the week and sent reminders each evening of what we had on the schedule for the next day. Would highly recommend this house if you are looking for a place to relax as well as go out to see the country.

The villa was better than advertised!!! The pictures do not do it justice! We had 3 kids and 5 adults with plenty of room. The view is amazing and likely the best in the area. The location is excellent and gated with an armed guard. I felt safe with my family and I am very protective. We had difficulty with our travel days and the owners allowed us to stay an extra night at no cost. Very gracious!!! We did all the things while there: a 4 wheeler tour, surfing, water falls, hot springs, swinging bridges, sloths, riding horses on the beach, fishing charter, and of course private chef’s which was our favorite and recommended by Zindis, the property management group who host the villa. A pro tip for anyone looking fo white faced monkeys in the area…. They show up near the market behind the RIU in Montapalo every morning between 9 and 10 local time. They are out of our hands and crawled all over you if you let them

We travel frequently, and this is one of the most beautiful homes we've ever rented. It's breathtaking. The gorgeous setting, views, pool and interior decor made it difficult to want to leave the house for tours or beach time. (but we did of course!) The Playa Hermosa and Playa Panama beaches just minutes away were quiet and safe for our three little monkeys (grandchildren) to romp in the surf. Concierge service was excellent and prompt to help. The chef they recommended for a couple of suppers-in was superb. I think my highlights of the house itself were the tropical flora and fauna murals in various places on a wall or ceiling and at the pool house, plus the Boruca mask collection. Accessing the property, a rental car with all wheel drive is highly recommended. The steep entrance driveway to the community is a bear when the pavement is wet!

amazing trip and unbeatable view

We had a group of 8 stay and there was ample space for everyone. The pictures do not do this house and view justice. The location was perfect for us and was quiet at the house but close to restaurants and activities for all. The house manager Alex and the concierge staff were all wonderful and very prompt in response time and communication. I would definitely recommend, and we are actively looking into when we can come back and enjoy again!

Stunning view!

We had a party of 8 staying for 10 days. The property is beautiful. We were visited by howler monkeys several times. We loved the artwork and furnishings throughout the house and always felt secure. We enjoyed a number of the local beaches (Panama was our favorite). We packed in many adventures including Diamante adventure park, a river cruise, waterfall and volcano hikes, snorkeling and boating tour to name a few. And the food was delicious no matter where we ate. In the evenings, we enjoyed the pool and the hot tub. The only issue with the property was that the pool had not been cleaned when we first checked in and the hot tub was not working. Both of those were addressed by the following day by Zindis. The hot tub stopped working a second time midweek, but was again handled by Zindis the next day. Overall a great trip and we will surely miss the incredible view!

Great view!

Loved the house. Steep drive to get to the home but well worth it for the view. House was very expansive and all bedrooms very private. Kitchen was well equipped for cooking and we appreciated the filtered water at the sink and the little countertop ice maker. Could use a few new pool inflatables as most leaked air. Beach towels were provided as well as coolers in the garage. We never used the tv, but noticed the surround sound and big library of movies. Also liked the board games. Pool and hot tub were nice. Note the hot tub was on a timer that only came on in the evening. People staying with young children or older adults will need to pay extra attention on the spiral staircase to the pool and the area that drops off behind the pool chairs at the back of the pool. This was a wonderful well appointed home with awesome views and lots of extras. We were under the impression that it was a short walk to the beach, but that was not the case. We might have misread the description. Also, while you could control the ac units in the bedrooms, the main living area upstairs was set at 82 and we could not adjust it. Our group was okay with it so we did not call about it, but that might be a bit warm for some. All rooms had ceiling fans though including the outdoor patio. We felt very safe at this location and there was a friendly security guard at the gate. Would definitely stay again.

Family Vacation

We loved our stay at The Palms. The house was the perfect size for our party of seven. The view is unbelievable and the property is gorgeous. We took two tours through Matt’s Fishing and Tours and had at meal prepared at the house by Chef at Home CR. Everything exceeded our expectations and we created lasting memories for our family. We did rent two 4WD cars from Adobe Rental and it was really nice being able to explore on our own and travel to the different beaches in the area. The only issue we had was we did not have water on our last day. The management company was easy to get ahold of and came over right away but was unable to get the water back on before we checked out. I would definitely book this property again if we ever make it back to Costa Rica.

Amazing Getaway

This was our first time to Costa Rica and we loved it! Our family of 10 really enjoyed our stay at The Palms. The views are incredible and we loved sitting out on the balconies enjoying coffee and breakfast, watching the town and the bay come to life. The pool is gorgeous and just what you need for a break from the heat - day and night. The kitchen is stocked with everything you may need, the bedrooms are large and comfortable, and there was plenty of space for all of us. The Zindis team was very friendly, helped us get settled in, helped to arrange excursions and was quick to resolve any minor issues we had. Would love to come back again!
