Coastal Comfort: BBQ & Beach Access near Matapolo
Convenient location, safe and the kitchen is very well equipped. I liked that the space for the car is roofed because with the rains it is very convenient. Mark is very attentive and efficient in answering any questions.

The White House Ocean View Vacation Rental
Beautiful house with all the possible amenities. Refreshing soaking pool with friendly Iguanas hanging out nearby. The view of the ocean is stunning. Very close to town, yet completely private. We loved it and hope to come back soon! Mucho gusto. Thank you... Pura Vida

BIME Del Mar Casita
Love the place! Monkeys right outside the window, ocean views and surrounded by jungle. The house is a large 1 bedroom with a large living room with cozy big couch, balcony off of the living room and big bedroom and bathroom. Everything we needed and more so will definitely keep it at the top of our list for another visit - very soon I hope.

Apartamentos equipados #1
This place was great and Lince was very helpful.

Monkey house
I really liked the location. It is a very comfortable and safe house. I was able to visit different beaches in a very short time. The house has a very large patio and you can have a very good time as a family. The Caribbean monkeys was the center of attention and being so close to them makes it a wonderful experience. The house offered everything I and my family need to have a pleasant stay. Everything is very organized and clean.

Mohe's Cabin 3
This stay was a fun adventure—like camping but with the comfort of a room! It would make a great camping-style getaway for a family. The location was fantastic, just about five minutes from the beach and with eateries in both directions. A couple of things to keep in mind: there’s only a fan for cooling, and the water is cold, but after a day at the beach, it’s actually quite refreshing! Overall, a unique and enjoyable experience for those looking for a simple, nature-inspired stay. Can't recommend enough.

Oceanview Jungle Art Villa in Dominical
This place is absolute heaven! The view from the balcony is to die for and my children loved the pool. Everything was just perfect, the house is amazing and the decor is really stunning. We spent a month here and it was one of the best months of our lives. Dominicalito is out of this world - jungle and beach!!! My daughter went surfing everyday and there is local football for my son. The surrounding area means you can scuba dive, horse ride along the beach and there is a stunning waterfall 5 min walk. I ran on the beautiful beach everyday and the locals were just fabulous inviting us to the local Kareoke on the beach 🏖️ the host was so helpful and we had no problems as everything ran smoothly in the house. Security is so professional Nd checks everyone in and out. We didn’t have a car and found walking really invigorating - especially up the hill. If you love nature you couldn’t ask for more - watch the monkeys at breakfast from the balcony - thanks so much for this epic adventure ❤️

Beautiful fully equipped studio 200 meters from the beach
Excellent host, Guillermo's mother was always attentive and ready to help with any needs that one had. The perfect location to get to know many beautiful places in the area.

Uvita 3 Bdrm Home! Walk to beach and restaurants!
Pura Vida - Great host and location. Walkable to the beach and several restaurants. Calm oasis in the back yard, where we could see Tucans, howler monkeys and an array of birds! Host is very responsive and we also appreciated having air conditioning as well as a washer / dryer. Uvita is a great place to visit with a ton of fun activities, and having the small pool onsite was really nice to escape the hot midday sun. The full kitchen is also a bonus. Modern, easy - with good WiFi and a good host. The howler moneys did wake us up in the morning, but that was actually pretty cool alarm clock - although they sounded like a sick dog!!! We stayed at 3 places, all of which said you’d see moneys, never saw any and we saw them all from the comfort of the shaded porch here.

Magnificent Getaway with Ocean-Mountain Views
The view from this villa is incredible. Looking out from the patio, you can see all the way to the ocean. Our concierge, Oscar, was incredibly responsive and kindly worked with us to check in when we arrived later than expected. He also left us some delicious mango and watermelon! The location listed is slightly inaccurate to where the villa actually is, but it still provided easy access to the main Dominical area. Also, definitely bring 4 wheel drive as the hosts suggest, as it's a steep climb to the house. We would definitely rent from this group again!

Dreamcatcher Coach@TribeBoutique Hotel Adults Only
Super cute and convenient! Thoughtful design, well equipped kitchen, comfy bed and laundry was a real bonus! Surprisingly quiet and private as well. Hosts were wonderful, patient, helpful and acommodating. Would highly recommend!

Freedom House Bahía Ballena Lodging
The place is just like one in the photographs. Magda's service is impeccable. Very attentive. She let us in a little earlier and gave us important help with local merchant. Thank you Magda!!

Private Suite 103 with shared pool and BBQ area
We loved this place! It’s way better than the photos! The plants are beautiful! The pool is lovely and deep. We loved the space! Bathroom is great. We liked where it was downtown Dominical. Easily walkable. We highly recommend this spot! (Busy roads don’t bother us.)

Queen bedroom container in Domi Unit #3 - Pool
Dominical was our favorite place to stay & it was great meeting the hosts. We were lucky enough to be recommended great restaurants & would definitely be back here. We were able to park the car in the private parking and walk everywhere (beach, restaurants, shops etc), which was great !!

Steps away from the ocean!
This is a very special house. The decor just made us happy...a unique blend of modern concrete floors and counter tops and handmade rustic furniture, gorgeous art work and even a little deco thrown in. The location is brilliant, you can see the water in the distance and there are meters and meters of lush green pasture between you and the road. There is a fabulous small pool which is perfect for cooling down in (very) warm uvita. Excellent air in all the bedrooms. The main room is not AC-d, but this was fine with us. Everything cools down a lot at night. There is a small nice sandy beach in the front (not great for swimming as there are rocks farther out) and Natalia will tell you about a secret beach that is about a 15 minute walk away that is spectacular. No one was there while we were there and the beach is huge and perfect for body surfing. Wonderful pizza at Pizza Time and great meals at Aricari and Gusto (but Gusto is tricky to get to without 2x4). Loved every minute!

Tropical Paradise- Ocean View Condo
Everything was great!!

Beach front house w/ a/c & wifi - La Ola Feliz
Jamie and Sonia were excellent hosts, any questions they responded right away. The house was even better in person than the pictures depicted. We stayed at the property for 24 days. Almost every day we had a troop of about 20 white faced capuchin monkeys come through the yard between the house and the beach. There were also scarlet macaws that came through almost every day. The beach was beautiful, very clean and just steps from the back door. Jose Luis, the groundskeeper who lives on the property, was great. He takes pride in keeping the property clean, he cleaned the yard twice every single day we were there. It was the most well kept yard around. There is a convenience store just down the street for whatever you need. We were looking for somewhere that was accessible to touristy places without actually being in a tourist area and we got exactly what we were looking for. We would definitely stay here again. Thanks to our hosts and Jose Luis for making our trip an amazing experience!

Paradise , Walk to the beach Uvita
This place is SO MUCH nicer than what's allowed in the photos. Our host was very welcoming and communication was easy. The unit is right in the middle of the jungle, so we had all kinds of interesting and photo-worthy wild passersby. Despite being in a condominium the property seemed to have the right amount of isolation and privacy. And the beach !!!!, almost lonely, you arrive on a trail that you enter peace of mind to relax, I went with my 4 month old baby and it was very easy to access the baby car to the beach, you will find a lot of shade under the lush trees, which helped keep cool and a good rest from my baby. There are many restaurants in the area, and if you don't want to go out by a supermarket and shopping to prepare your meals, the kitchen is fully stocked, or you can walk on the beach at Villa Eleonor a local restaurant, arrive on time because it takes a little time to serve the food, We'll be back soon

Matapalo Beach House
Perfect, so I would summarize my experience, excellent hosts, friendly, always in communication, attentive, helpful, among others very good qualities. The place is wonderful, private, safe, with an incredible air of peace, very close to everything you need (supermarkets, restaurants, beaches). The house is very beautiful, spacious, tidy, full air, fully equipped, nothing more to ask for. Geizel and her husband's recommendations, super accurate, matapalo beach and Linda are beautiful, Dominical has an excellent atmosphere, the restaurant la Langoza Feliz 10/10, and so many that didn't give us time, but we'll be back very soon. In short, it is a place that far exceeded my expectations, mega recommended. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Cola de la Ballena Apartment
Leidy was very kind, he located us in a dream accommodation, totally magical. She contacted me with personalized attention by offering solutions on what we needed. Thank you very much Leidy for making our stay amazing.

Upscale 4b/4b great location w/ breathtaking views
Amazing house and location! We saw lots of wild life which our children loved! Just made it into the property with our rental car, the gravel does make it tricky to get up the drive way so we had to reverse the car up as it wouldn’t make it by driving up so something to be aware of! But overall stunning property and worth the extra drive 😍

Private Entire Home Beachfront Backyard A/C & WIFI
The location of this spot was a magical dream. The beach is a gorgeous, beautiful wide chocolate sand beach that goes forever in both directions. There was a huge shady place to hang hammocks between the house and the beach. We were 5 in total, Abuela (79), two kids (6 & 11) and myself and my husband. We all absolutely loved this home and location and would absolutely return.

4br Boutique Rooms River Front Property Dominical
Stephanie and Chris's place was perfect for our larger group of 5 adults and 4 children. We stayed in all 4 rooms and it was like having a hotel to ourselves. Location was great in the heart of Dominical town. The food and cocktails were amazing from Las Juntas restaurant right on the property right in front. Great hosts, fun atmosphere. It was hard to leave!

Great Ocean View and easy access
It was a beautiful house and an amazing view. Do recommend .
