WHY FAMILIES LOVE VILLA PUNTO DE VISTA

“Our stay at Punta de Vista was absolutely amazing. Not only is it beautiful, every single person on the staff is wonderful! We wanted for nothing! My husband and I have a 1-year-old son, and they could not have made it easier and more accommodating for him. They drove us down and back to the beach, so we did not have to walk him down, and even had sand toys for him to play with! If you are looking for an above and beyond experience, this is the place to go!”

-Olivia S., July 2024

“We came with our chosen family of 10 adults and 6 kids (5 – 10 years old) and could not have asked for a more beautiful or incredible place to connect and relax. Easily enough bedrooms, spaces for everyone. Rooms all had incredible views, and ALL the amenities. It was like a private hotel. [The team was] friendly, attentive, great with the kids… [they] arranged for every possible excursion we could want, and they were all well done. My favorite was they organized a beach day for us, with lunch right on the sand. Already trying to figure out how to get back… until then, Pura Vida!”

Katherine C., April 2024

“We were blown away with the villa, the service, personal attention, and next-level pampering. There were a total of 22 of us 12 adults and 10 kiddos, some families and some singles. Everyone is ready to come back. The location is private but only minutes from all the action in Manuel Antonio. Oh, and there are so many things that I can go on and on with. The private beach chair and snack set-up. The shuttle service to the ATM in the middle of the night. The constant attention to our kids’ needs. The playroom/video game attendant. And on, and on, and on…”

KID-FRIENDLY AMENITIES

A WILDLIFE WONDERLAND

Your kids may make a few new friends in Costa Rica… but maybe not the kind you expect. Due to our unspoiled location in the jungle, they’ll be greeted in the morning by playful monkeys, visited in the afternoon by a mama sloth and her babies, and serenaded to sleep by the toucans in the trees. Many species thrive in the jungle canopy, and with any luck, they’ll be able to see them all. We have a bingo game they can play to see how many they see during their stay!

Luxury Villa Infinity Pool POOLS THEY WON’T WANT TO LEAVE

It’s hard to get the kids out of the pool anywhere. But when they have a view of sloths, monkeys, and the ocean… they’ll never want to get out! Plenty of pool toys will keep them entertained for hours, so the parents can relax with them in view while sipping on a tropical beverage. Win-win!

Villa Game Room and Business Retreat Center ULTIMATE GAME ROOM & THEATRE ROOM

If they leave the pool (notice we say if, not when, because you may be dragging them out at the end of the day ready for bed), games will await. The villas each have a PlayStation 5, wall-mounted iPads, a 10-foot movie screen, a professional karaoke system, and more.

ALL THE OUTDOOR FUN & GAMES

There is no reason for the kids to be bored when we have Spike Ball, frisbees, a professional volleyball net, badminton, soccer balls, Giant Jenga, beach bocce, board games galore, boogie boards, and more.

Complimentary Breakfast in Private Villa KITCHEN-STOCKING SERVICES

We know there are certain snacks that little ones can’t live without. Before arrival, our pre-arrival concierge will work with you to ensure the villas are stocked with your kiddo's favorite nibbles. While we may not have exact brands, we’ll get as close as possible!

Private Chef for Special Events in Private Villa CHEF SERVICES

While our chef can prepare a gourmet five-course tasting menu for adults, he’s equally happy to make chicken fingers, hamburgers, or arroz con pollo for the more adventurous eaters!

Guest Social Areas in Private Villa ACCESS TO BABYSITTING SERVICES

We have a team of local caretakers we trust our own children with whom we can give a call if there’s an adults-only activity mom and dad want to participate in.

EXPERIENCED CONCIERGE & STAFF

Our pre-arrival concierge and on-site staff have been working to host families in Costa Rica for over a decade. They understand the intricacies that come with traveling with young children to teens and pay personal attention to meet your group's every need from the time you book to the moment you arrive home after an adventure of a lifetime.

ALL THE ESSENTIALS AT YOUR FINGERTIPS

From highchairs to pack-and-plays to car seats, we will ensure you have it all—you won’t have to lug anything with you in your suitcase! Leave it to us.

24/7 villa security 24-HOUR SECURITY

We wholeheartedly understand the importance of keeping your family safe. While Costa Rica is one of the safest countries in the world, we do have an extra 24-hour security guard who monitors the property for your ultimate peace of mind.

STAY TOGETHER, STRESS-FREE…

It’s all about relaxing, reconnecting, and spending more time together…

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.
