Excellent communication with the host before, during and after and the onsite supports by Jacky and Cesar who are the concierges for the resort were wonderful - they helped arrange transportation, a couple of great tours and graciously answered many questions we had during our stay. The villa was lovely, clean and came with gorgeous views and a well stocked kitchen which we appreciated because we live to cook. The fact that we had access to an infinity pool steps from our back seating area was icing on the cake.
On our last morning we watched a group of monkeys in the trees across from the villa
The sunsets were just beautiful!!
Beach area at the bottom of the hill - had fun snorkeling here

Disliked: Cleanliness
Amenities poorly maintained and host was not attentive to resolve issues promptly. 1st day was without hot water which took a day to fix. Dryer barely dries without having to run it twice for small loads. However, we were without working Air Conditioning for entire stay of 1 week at their place. Bedrooms upstairs reached 90F degree at night without any air flow. Took host 3 days to bring 2 fans. It was miserable sleeping at night. Had to get Vrbo involved. Then on the last 2 nights we were told to sleep in next door unit. We had to still use their unit during the day then went to the neighboring unit to just sleep. Body wash was empty, laundry detergent had just 1 load so we bought a bunch of refills and left there. AC tech said the AC unit should have been replaced at least a year ago and host knew but refused to replace. We got kids and they nightmares every night from being overheated. I could barely sleep in that heat, which ruined what supposed to be a relaxing time for us.

Amenities in the villa were good. The grill was a nice extra and when we needed gas, it was delivered the next day. The staff at the gate and on the beach were friendly. We loved the private beach and the proximity to Coco town.

We just completed 6 nights in this stunning vacation property. The view is spectacular, the outside amenities were great, and the easy access to the infinity pool was soooo wonderful. The Villa was very well equipped for cooking, clean, and comfortable. The beach, pools, and on-site restaurant were very nice but require a walk down a steep hill or you can easily drive down and park right by these amenities. The food at the restaurant was so good and Father Roosters, an amazing beach front restaurant, is only a few minutes drive. The host was very responsive and genuinely about helping us enjoy our time in the Villa and Costa Rica.

Excellent Villa

We stayed at this Villa in early March 2025 and had a fabulous time. The beach was beautiful, the Villa had everything we needed, grocery stores and restaurants are a short drive away, and the concierge team can help with any excursions you are interested in. Gwen was a great host before, during, and after our trip. We will be back!

Beautiful Views and Resort

My family, 6 of us all adults stayed for 4 days. The views were amazing, the place was very spacious and comfortable for entire group. The infinity pool by unit was great, as well as the pool down by beach and so was the restaurant. The views were unbeatable, and the beach was excellent. We were only 10 minutes from town, so easy to get groceries etc.

Great first time in Costa Rico

We were first time visitors to Costa Rico. Loved the Bahai Pez Vila. Our vila overlooked the ocean, the unit was very well equipped. We loved the infinity pool and the outdoor eating area. The unit is a significant walk to the ocean, we drove our car to the beach. The road leading to the property is not great, go slow and drive carefully.The grounds are beautiful. We had a few small maintenance issue but we loved the unit. We would definitely return.

Great stay with family of all ages

We had a great time! The pool right next door was a great amenity. The neighborhood is extremely hilly, so be prepared to drive a car or golf cart whenever you need to leave the resort or go down to the beach/restaurant.We had a 2 year old child, and adults in their 30s, 60s, 70s, and 80s, and all were able to have a wonderful time. If you are grocery shopping, buy your produce at the road-side stand near the triangular roundabout on the way into town! The best fruit you'll ever have.

Every possible thing you could want for a very relaxing holiday Gwen was exceedingly helpful and informative for our stay. There was spices and teas soy sauce and balsamic vinegar left for us too which was awesome and various other kitchen appliance we could want. We taxied most places because we want a relaxing first week the villa Is up a very steep hill we did try to on or own hire a golf cart it had to be gas because of the gradient Ceasar tried too but they were all booked up if you are planning your trip you should book these carts ahead of your trip. We had a wonderful time thanks again Gwen .

Amazing host, Beautiful property

From the time of booking to our last day, Gwen was always so responsive and helpful! The house is just as described, everything you should need for a wonderful stay. The pool is literally next to the house but you also have a great little backyard where we enjoyed couples massages at sunset! I would definitely recommend a golf cart for the resort and neighboring areas if you don’t want to climb a super steep hill or tow. I mean truly almost vertical! With a daughter who broke her ankle one day before our trip, the golf cart was a game changer.The area is gorgeous, the house is very comfortable and truly equipped with everything. We had an amazing time! Thank you Gwen for everything.

Bahia Pez Vela

Our family of 5 including 3 college age kids completed had a great 6 night stay at Villa Exora. The accommodations were as advertised, and were clean, comfortable and spacious. The views from the patio and the upper pool next door were spectacular. We saw howler monkeys, a green parrot and lots of other unique wildlife. The food and service at the onsite restaurant Soluna was exceptional, and the beach and lower pool area provided other opportunities to mix things up without leaving the resort grounds. We also enjoyed Father Rooster nearby, as well as a couple visits to Coco Beach about 10-15 minutes away by car. The resort concierge setup an awesome zipline, river tubing, horseback riding and hot spring excursion that we all enjoyed as well. It was a wonderful stay and I hope to return in the future.Our host Gwen was very helpful providing great suggestions in the days ahead of our trip.

Pura Vida!

We had an amazing experience staying in this villa! The view was incredible! Having an infinity pool right next to the villa with a breathtaking view was amazing and very convenient. I suggest having a car when you stay here. Having the view we did comes with the cost of walking up and down a very steep road to get to the restaurant and beach. The home was clean and well maintained with plenty of space for the whole family.
