We were 6 adults, parents and adult children (23-26 yrs) and found the layout to be good. The villa was spotless and cool upon our arrival and check-in was very easy. The villa is very peaceful, located at the end of a row with 1 additional unit next to it before the upper pool area. The upper pool is perfect with an infinity pool and views to the ocean. The views were the best part of staying in this unit as opposed others that were at the bottom of the resort. Chris is the 2nd best part of renting this villa, as he's extremely helpful, efficient, and responsive.
We had a car which is ideal if you stay in this resort as it's a 15 minute drive to the grocery store in Playas del Coco. It's only 45 minutes to Liberia airport, 1 hr to Tamarindo, and 1.5 hrs to Rincon de la Vieja Park. The location is ideal for exploring the area, or just hanging out and enjoying the view.
The villa is exactly like the pictures with great views from 2 upper bedrooms and the main living area. It has a brand new BBQ, refrigerator, dishwasher, and microwave and is well stocked for cooking.
The grounds are well maintained and were green and full of flowers during our visit. The restaurant, Picante, is an open air, poolside dining area and bar with good food and friendly staff. You can rent paddle boards, kayaks, snorkle gear and book tours through the office. Both units on each side of us were rented while we were there yet it was still very quiet.
