The most memorable and high-touch stay at Punta de Vista!

We just returned from the best family vacation we have ever taken at Punta de Vista.

Our experience began with warm, professional and prompt responsiveness from Sabrina who helped us book the stay after answering many questions about accommodations for my elderly father and other logistics.

Once booked, Gloriela began planning activities for the 12 of us from transfers from our hotel in Arenal to daily adventures including kayaking, horseback riding, hiking and dinners. She took into account the various levels of mobility and booked appropriate and fun activities for us all. Once we arrived at the villa, we were stunned at the beauty of the home and the setting. We enjoyed seeing sloths and monkeys from our balconies and even had monkeys approach the pool and breakfast area on a few occasions, much to the delight of the children. David has designed accommodations that are luxurious with stunning views at every turn, with spaces for family dinners, quiet reading, movie watching and even spa services.

The villa was kept spotless with daily housekeeping and fresh linens and towels. The real differentiator at Punta de Vista, however, is the level of service provided by the team. They deserve so many accolades for their genuine care and obvious delight at serving guests. Every touchpoint we had with Raoul, Erick, Jackson, Harold, Francisco and Jossue was lovely, and we could tell that they approach their jobs with pride and from their hearts.

We appreciated the small touches like the cold towels on arrival and finding sloths to show the kids, but were really blown away and touched by all of the surprises from them, which included extravagant fruit trays, live entertainment and a beach bbq. We all remarked that we might never be able to create a vacation like that again together as a family. Throughout our entire stay, the team was welcoming, accommodating, generous and warm. We hope to return to Punta de Vista in the future and know that when we do, we will be greeted with the highest levels of hospitality and warmth.

Thank you to David, Sabrina and Christian!

Stop Thinking and Just Enjoy!

How many adjectives are there for superb? Not enough characters allowed in this review to describe the experience. Ritz Carlton should take notes from this place. Truly one of the most blessed experiences I have ever had. From the time you get there until the time you leave…when you get home it won’t feel like home anymore and you will wish you were back. Thank you to David and all of the wonderful people that made our +15 group have such a memorable time. Seriously…nightly food by a chef, service that knows what you want before you do, live music at dinner if you wish, a view that pictures will never do justice, and the rooms and common areas of the villa will make you wonder what you did wrong in life not to wake up to them every morning. I have been blessed with the opportunity to travel many places in my time so far and this one will be impossible to beat. Again, thank you to all of those that made my engagement one that will always be one of my favorite memories.

Magnificent property for a truly magical event

Everything was beyond perfect. Every view, room, and feature completely breathtaking. Each day was better than the next. All of our guests were in awe and jaws were dropped with every corner turned. The staff was absolutely incredible and we’ve never felt better taken care of. And most importantly, all of our friends and family remarked on it being amongst the best experiences of their lives. Many tears were shed at checkout as we were sad it had to end, but so very happy it happened.

Everything we expected and more!

We are a group of 6 couples aged 40-60 who travel 5 star and stay in luxury villas often. Punto de Vista was one of our favorites. It started with Gloriela months before assisting with our itinerary and provisions. The professionalism and attention to detail were impeccable. Upon our arrival, we were blown away with the architecture and how well laid out the villa is. It’s absolutely picturesque. The location couldn’t be better as it sits right in the middle of nature at its finest. Monkeys, sloths and Tucans surrounded us daily. The beach was a beautiful 10 minute walk from the villa. Of course you can take a 4 wheel drive that comes with the villa, but we enjoyed the walk. Finally, Diego and Josse, our villa concierge, completed the enjoyment and what made this stay over the top! They anticipated our needs before we voiced them. By the end of a short 5 day stay, we had become friends and were all sad to say goodbye. We are looking at dates for next year to return to our little heaven on earth!!

Will Be the Best Trip of Your Life

The facilities managers (Diego and Jossue) and the entire staff are unrivaled. They will make your stay feel like heaven on earth and they treat every person in your group like royalty. If there’s a better place to vacation, I’ve never seen or heard of it, and my wife and I have vacationed all over the world! The food is the best you’ve ever had. If you like wildlife then this is a no brainer; monkeys, sloths, parrots, iguanas, toucans all can be seen from your balcony while you’re sitting in your robe drinking coffee. The house itself is something that you have to honestly see to believe (the pictures don’t even do it justice). If you want a beach day then the staff will set you or your group up with a full service beach day where the only work you’ll have to do is to turn the page of the book you’re reading or cracking open one of the great local beers that will already be iced down waiting on you at the beach. If you’re into sports fishing then you probably already know that Costa Rica is second to none, where you will catch blue marlin, yellow fin tuna, sailfish, and mahi mahi barely out of sight from the resort. If you’re debating where to take your next vacation then do yourself a favor and stop debating it and make the decision to choose Punta De Vista. I promise you will talk about this trip the rest of your life and you will also will more than likely have a return trip booked before you leave.

Incomparable!

I’ve truly never experienced a stay like I had at Villa Punto de Vista! The property itself and amenities were as good as it gets. I was blown away when I arrived. I really miss the view from the perfectly heated at all times pool. The real standout of the experience for me was the staff. Everyone working there is so genuinely kind and helpful. The definition of going above and beyond! I really enjoyed meeting them. I’d recommend staying here to anyone!

Amazing experience!

We stayed here for 4 days for our wedding with family and friends. Both villas are absolutely beautiful (bedrooms, common areas, everything). The thing that really made our stay unforgettable was the amazing staff, they were so kind and so attentive- they didn’t miss a thing. The villa is also situated right in the jungle so we had lots of exciting animal sightings! We truly had the best time imaginable and can’t wait to be back!
