Nice but looking for NEW home as advertised
The place was nice but not what we expected. We wanted to stay in a Newer updated light place. The listing claimed it was NEW however I think that pertained to a "New listing". The photos on the listing were photoshopped I believe. The house is darker inside. You had to have the lights on in the daytime. The kitchen was fully stocked and the bbq was pretty new the beds were comfortable but the water was not warm. I like to rinse my dishes in HOT water and have a warm shower. I called the property manager and I was told that the water is solar heated and there wasn't a lot of sun on the days we stayed so tepid showers is what we had. The master shower was kind of cool cause you felt like you in the jungle. Would have been nice to have a warm shower. The property managers were very attentive. One thing also there is a safe but it does not work I was told we had a key but there was NO key on the keychain. Overall we were disappointed because we expected a newer home and it's clearly a worn older home so our experience was not what we expected.

Gorgeous Surroundings
The first impression of this very unique house was pure excitement. Loved the unusual layout and the perfect views from every angle. Lots of opportunities to see the Flora and Fauna that Costa Rica has to offer. Spent a lot of time on the Casita terrace to watch Motmot, Hummingbirds, Butterflies, and even a white faced monkey. As an alert to future residents: If you are dependent on reliable wi-fi, this is not a good location. Personally, I would also like to see a much more upscale pool, preferably with solar heat and a bit better accessibility. Get ready to share your abode with the typical Costa Rican flying and crawling critters. :) Overall, it was a wonderful place to stay, with better stocked pantry of everyday necessities than we have ever experienced. Thank you for sharing your home!

What an incredible stay we had at this beautiful home! The safety and convenience of being close to town and yet to be surrounded by nature was the perfect combo. Birdsong and nature were our alarm clock. What a great way to wake up! Every morning we would open all the sliding 'walls' and invite the outdoors in to create the seamless transition of indoor to outdoor living. We would sit on the comfortable loungers and sip delicious costa rican coffee overlooking the mountains and valley. We made good use of the BBQ and enjoyed our dinners at the outdoor table with amazing views. Even the dinner clean up was enjoyable..looking out at the serene courtyard garden and water fountain. In that garden is a generous lime tree which we also took advantage of..(think home made margaritas!). We used the pool every day. The water was refreshing. We were pleasantly surprised to find a weight set and yoga mats on the deck. We enjoyed every space this home has to offer. I found myself just wandering around taking in all the beautiful views from every vantage point..they are endless! The mattress was very comfortable. The sitting areas off each bedroom were lovely and could provide a quiet, private space if needed. The kitchen had everything we needed to make ourselves at home. We didnt want for anything..(except maybe a juicer for those limes! Lol) We saw lots of hummingbirds, a toucan, eguanas, even white faced monkeys one day! And hardly any flying bugs! Wonderful home and vacation!!!

Absolutely gorgeous villa and surroundings. We were speechless the moment the gate opened. Property managers did an excellent job of showing us around and assisting with booking a massage at the house with Marcella who provided an awesome massage. Best relaxation holiday.. Ever. We did not want to leave and look forward to returning. Thank you for sharing you gorgeous home.

Little Piece of Paradise in Atenas
A 5 star rating isn't high enough for this property! This is by far the best home away from home we have ever stayed in and we highly recommend it for your stay in the Central Valley. The house is absolutely beautiful with 180 degree vistas - you can watch the sun rise and the sun set right from several different vantage points. There are lots of places to sit both inside and outside. The kitchen is fully stocked with every kind of dish, utensil, glass and appliance you can possibly need. The hosts have thought of everything - right down to coffee travel mugs, water bottles and a cooler for your adventures. It was just the two of us, but the house can easily accommodate two couples with a third in the casita with everyone having more than enough space to feel comfortable and relaxed. We saw and heard dozens of types of birds, and were visited by toucans, motmots, hummingbirds and a laughing falcon - it's like being in the jungle with the convenience of town not far away. This was our fourth visit to Costa Rica, and our third to Atenas. The location of this home is perfect - it's easy to get into town (we even walked twice) and we went on day trips to Braullio Carillo, Monteverde, Punteranas, San Ramon, Hacienda Alsacia and Alajuela. No matter where we went, though, we always wanted to be back in time to enjoy relaxing time at Alma Libre.

Viva Villa Alma Libre
The villa is enchanting with spectacular setting and incredible views. Property is very well maintained and managed. Great town and lots to see. Excellent place to chill out. Very quiet. Lots of bird life and wonderful butterfly gardens. People are very friendly. A abundance of very good restaurants nearby. Shopping for food supplies is easy and close by. We’re coming back next year.
