Corcovado Private Villas

The property itself was beautiful, and the breakfast provided was good. We were not prepared for a fully outdoor shower with only cold water. We never were able to connect to WiFi. I know we were in nature, but the abundance of bugs inside the bedroom was not pleasant. This is more of a glamping experience.

Beware! It’s not as advertised The house had a beautiful view! What isn’t disclosed in the listing: there is no AC for the whole house and it was VERY uncomfortable. There are only 2 bedrooms on the lower level that have AC. There are no doors on the upper part of the house (only screens) - expect very large bugs and spiders!!! The dishes in the home had to be washed before use and could stand to be replaced - as could the toaster and small appliances. Suggestions to the owners: spray for ants! They were everywhere! Inside, outside! It made the entire property unusable. Finally - let’s talk about the roads! I have a 20 minute video of how horrible the roads are to get to the main house! This part of the trip was the worst part of the drive I experienced on my 2 week road trip of Costa Rica! The roads to get to the property are full of pot holes, standing water/mud. It truly is 4 wheeling at its worst! The roads when you get to the property aren’t much better! Steep driveways (at least they have 2 concrete pads for your tires) but they let the middle grow so large between the 2 concrete pads, the bottom of my SUV was scraping. Note to property: dig out the middle between the concrete and make it a little easier to drive! The pool was dirty! The jacuzzi was warm but the jets didn’t work. We were so disappointed we checked out after one night (and this was the hotel I was most looking forward to)! The staff was nice though.

The pictures were a little misleading. I think they took the "best of" of all the homes and used the most recently remodeled/refreshed for the pictures. They also told us after we booked that the restaurant was by preorder only. Missing a few things in the rooms i.e. shampoo. Also, anywhere that calls themselves a "private villa" should offer coffee in rooms.

Loved the setting and it was very comfortable. Communication could have been better. All in all I would definitely stay again.

Nice Villa, and super friendly owner. We went to a Trip and couldn‘t attend breakfast, so the owner did prepare a sandwich and Snacks for us in the evening without even asking. Stunning location in the nature

We have stayed in several villas across the world and I would say this was in our top 5! The views of the forest are beautiful! Pro tip, Private pool is a must!
