Villa la Ventana - Villa and Casita overlooking the Pacific Ocean near Nosara
This secluded estate on a mountain top overlooking the Pacific is surrounded by thousands of acres of virgin forest and is perfect for 3 couples or a large family. The main house has two master suites with large baths, one up & one down and a twin bed in the TV room with a full bath. The living area opens to a Lake Como style veranda that looks down on a beautiful cove and also has spectacular mountain views as does the open area covered dining area. The large pool is set between the main house and the casita. The casita has identical views and is complete with sitting area, kitchenette and small bath. If you are looking for a real getaway that is totally private with fantastic views you will not find anything better. There is a security gated entry and the villa is a 4 km scenic drive up the mountains. We are located half way between Samara & Nosara and only 3 km from the small fishing village of Garza. There are small quaint restaurants in Garza and numerous restaurants and amenities in those nearby popular towns. Get away from the tourist scene and have a secluded and romantic setting. The house was designed by the original owner to capture the spectacular views and prevailing breezes from the ocean. Wake up to the sounds of howler monkeys and nature's sounds. There are beautiful sunrises and sunsets. We feel we have the best part of Costa Rica, It is truly paradise. Our pricing includes both the main house and casita with maid service twice weekly. We have a project manager/gardener who comes on week days. The employees may be hired for other services (like cooking) on their off days (but you would pay them direct). Since they only speak Spanish, google translate works very well.

Beautiful property with amazing views
We enjoyed the view: beautiful sunsets, spectacular view of the Pacific, and the grounds are beautiful. Very private. Outdoor living spaces were ideal rain or shine. Amazing pool! Indoor space and bedrooms are very nice, but we spent most of our time outside. Nice bathrooms and kitchen is well equipped.
We had great time, spent a lot of time in the pool.
Property was awesome, water systems and septic systems need upgrading. Bearly any pressure and little or no hot water for the showers. We have stayed many times in Costa Rica and the issues that I have mentioned seem to apply to most properties. We go for the Pura Vida and we were not disapointed.
Spectacular property with unforgettable views. The host did a great job making sure we had all we need and the house was fully stocked with the supplies you’d expect. There is a grounds keeper on the property who was very helpful in answering any questions and making sure the pool and rest of the property were well maintained. However this stay is not for everyone. The house took a bit of effort to get to due to the remote location and driving there at night required some navigational finesse. Since it is in the jungle, you can expect visits from assorted bugs in the evening. Beds have mosquito nets so it wasn’t an issue for us but since the wrought iron panoramic doors are not fully sealed, bugs and other insects are able to make their way inside. The doors do have weather strips which help somewhat. The water quality isn’t great for drinking and we had trouble getting consistent hot water when showering, though due to the hot weather it’s actually quite refreshing. There is also no AC in the house though there is a constant breeze and evenings are generally cool. We spent most of our time relaxing outside and by the pool in the day and made our way down to the private beach often.
