We had only two complaints. Air conditioning only in the bedroom and very poor lighting in the bedroom, other than that, everything was great! Very good staff!

Stunning view, friendly staff Don’t like: A/C doesn’t work well, and it’s only in the room, missing a A/C in the living room. TV too small, even when you don’t need it, because you can keep staring at the sea view.

Villas alturas was a beautiful property with the most gracious and helpful staff. Francisco #Franko was the most knowledgeable and gave us incredible insight into local spots for our adventures. Incredible Bar tender as well! We stayed for 4 nights. The cuisine was absolutely delicious and vegetarian friendly!! Would definitely recommend staying here to any friends/family! Well done!

Beautiful views and super helpful staff! You’ll want to rent a 4-wheel drive vehicle, but that’s just part of the adventure. Plenty of activities and great restaurants within driving distance.

Best place to stay in Costa Rica for us
I love this place. We stayed only 2 nights but out of the 4 places we stayed this is by far the best. Staff is amazing so kind and helpful. We were given villa #5 which has an ok view but saw Villa # 3 & 4 we open which has a much better view. We asked if we could move to #3 and it was no problem. Such an amazing view. Loved the patio. The air conditioning was only for the bedroom which was fine because we were never in the living room. Usually at the pool or on the patio if not out exploring. The food was good. Loved the atmosphere. If you want a view don't get Villa #6 Villa #8 has a great view and is right next to the pool. We will be back for a whole week next time for sure. Thank you all so very much!. The Sanctuary on the grounds was cute. A little expensive for the amount of animals to view but the guide made in entertaining. And the money does go to help the animals so... Oh and you will need a higher clearance vehicle to get up the road to the place.

Hilltop peaceful Oasis.
My gf and I stayed here. The villas are not 5 star accommodations, more like three, but the staff are so welcoming and wonderful that you are made to feel at home right away. My gf and I made dinner in villa 1 while we were here each night, and we basically had everything we needed. Any time we needed a pan or something, the staff was happy to lend it to us from the kitchen. The views from the hilltop location are pretty mind blowing. I’d love to go back.

Fully stacked stocked villa
The level of thoughtfulness by the hotel is on a new level with all the necessities in the villa such as trash bags, kitchen ware, and more. It also has amazing view and service from all the staff. The only negative is the WiFi was poor but you’re on vacation...best to ditch the internet.

Very good
Excellent location. Safe area. Amazing staff who made our stay a memorable one. Although the villa provided us a comfortable haven during our stay, it could use some updating. It would also be great if the food they offer at their restaurant had a bit more flavor.

Liked: view cannot be beat, staff was very helpful, friendly and attentive and food and drinks were very good. Cons: need 4x4 vehicle to get to the property but was used to the steep uphill drive after the first trip up and down.
