The pictures look great, but the experience goes beyond even the pictures. YouGetHere staff are responsive and excellent guides for local activities, which they will book for you at no additional cost. Villa feels very private, surrounded as it is by extraordinarily beautiful tropical plants and jungle though it is not remote from groceries, restaurants, etc. We were visited daily by toucans and other birds, and heard howler monkeys in the morning, but never saw any. We took 4 tours recommended by the rental staff and all surpassed our expectations. We would definitely return again.

The view and home were amazingly beautiful. We enjoyed BBQing at the pool each night soaking up the ocean views and sunsets. The place was clean and had everything we needed. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone looking to visit the area. We were able to whitewater raft, hike, surf, visit waterfalls and more...all close to the home.

Our stay in Costa Rica in Casa Tropical was very relaxing and beautiful! We saw an abundance of toucans and we even saw a sloth on our Jungle ATV trip! Amazing!

This beautiful home was a new adventure for our family. We loved the open air living, the pool, fully-stocked kitchen and the private bedrooms with their own baths. (We didn't use the bunk room but it would have been great if we had extra people.) We felt like we were in a Costa Rican paradise. We loved sitting on the patio and watching the thunderstorms. We enjoyed all that Domincal and the surrounding area had to offer including the Nayauka Falls, restaurants, spa, and a rafting trip with Dominical Surf Adventures. We had a great week!

“This place is great 5 min to Dominical,waterfalls and about 45 min to Manual Antonio and the house it self is perfect with the sound of the ocean always present”

We had about 10 days to fit in all of our family's adventures. We scraped a handful just to have days to sit and take in the views from the house. The house itself was perfect for our 3 couples and 3 small kids, but the deck and pool were the showstoppers. On rainy nights we'd sit out under the overhang and watch the storms roll in. On sunny mornings we'd wake up to toucans and capuchins playing in the trees around the deck. It was the perfect home base for a week+ of adventure.

We had a great time at this very well kept property. A very comfortable home with many amenities including a wonderful pool!

The accommodations were perfect for our family of four. Both Gina and Claudia were extremely helpful! Our first morning we were fortunate to witness several white face monkeys playing in the trees right outside our bedroom window. We also saw toucans, geckos and a poisonous dart frog on the property. The gradens were very well manicured and added to the beauty of the property. The view of the ocean was exquisite. We took advantage of the pool floats and boogie boards during our ocean excursions. I highly recommend Gorda Vista for anyone staying in the Dominical area.

My boyfriend and i stayed here for 5 glorious nights. We were happy we rented a 4x4 vehicle due to the adventurous road. The house was everything and more. The pictures were spot on. The jungle symphony was the best noise to fall asleep to and wake up to. We will be back. Anyone visiting should make it a must to go to the jolly roger and get a drink and some wings.

Very clean, comfortable and well appointed home that overlooks the jungle with the ocean in the distance. We especially enjoyed utilization of the covered porch, its vistas and proximity to the monkeys playing in the trees (and sometimes on the roof of the house). It's a great place to read a book and listen to the various sounds emanating from the forest. The house is stocked with modern appliances and accessories and everything works well. The pool is great too and offers a refreshing contrast from the warm and salty beach water. We ate breakfast at the house and the other meals off the property, mostly in Dominical. Our favorite was PorqueNo, a short drive up the road. All in all, a very clean, well maintained and chill place to spend some time. Highly recommended.

My husband and I rented this home with another couple in May. It is exactly as described and more. It was nice not to see any homes and gave the feeling of being in the jungle. Most people go to Costa Rica to experience nature and beautiful views and you will not be disappointed. Also, the location is perfect, very close to restaurants and stores. Make sure you rent a 4 wheel drive vehicle to drive across a river on road up to home. We are not complaining, it was part of the experience.
