It was a great place to spend with our large family. Michelle was a sweetheart and she was very helpful. I will be back again. The place was fantastic. Very spacious and well kept. The views were awesome and the unobstructed views of the beach and ocean were priceless. I would highly recommend this condo to anyone who wants to enjoy their time with their family. The kids loved the pool and the ocean.

This is the first time that I've been on a trip that I have taken the time to write a review. The reason I feel compelled to do so is the amazing hospitality, service, and accommodations. Michelle Rodriguez was the perfect host. She was there to greet us when we arrived and personally escorted us to the penthouse. She was always available and ensured we had everything we needed to make our stay an enjoyable one. She also arranged transportation to and from the airport which I highly recommend. The penthouse itself was beautiful. The attention to detail is astounding, rooms are immaculate and beautifully decorated, the pool is very nice and the views of the beach and ocean are unbelievable. The location is extremely convenient, everything from restaurants, bars, shopping, etc...is less than 5 minute walk away. Definitely an amazing place and would recommend it to anyone!

This is an unbelievable place to visit. The condo looks even better than the pictures. Michelle and her staff were just a quick phone call away and very willing to help. We had plenty of room for my wife and I, our 2 teenagers, my brother in law and his wife and their 2 young adults. The views of the beach and town were spectacular and listening to the powerful waves crashing the shore everyday was awesome. The town of Jaco was very close and we walked everywhere we had to go in town. The only time we took a taxi was to the post office at the far end of town and that was only $3. The people in CR were very friendly and most spoke English and the food was great. I highly recommend Sunrise Cafe for breakfast just at the end of the street from the condo. For dinner, the Taco Bar, Wahoos, and Grafiti's were excellent. Stay away from Hicaco. It was overpriced and the service was not good.
Costa Rica was the perfect combination of adventures and laying around the beach and pool. Ziplining through the jungle was a blast and I highly recommend Manuel antonio State park, where you will see monkeys, toucans, sloths and many other native plants and animals. At the end of the hike, beautiful soft sand beaches are waiting for you to jump in and cool off. The only negative about this whole trip was that the beach was rocky by the condo. There was some softer sand just down the way, but the waves are so awesome they bring in a lot of rocks (careful about the undertow with small kids), but they were perfect for beginner surfers, boogie boarding and body surfing. Jaco is a great little beach town with lots to do, friendly ticos (natives) and great food. I highly recommend the condo and the location. We will definitely be going back!
