We had a wonderful week stay over Christmas, howler monkeys woke us (very early! ) on Christmas morning! Even earlier than our children. The cabins are extremely well equipped, possibly the best self-catering accommodation we have ever had. The plunge pool was refreshing! Though our youngest did not mind! The main pool has beautiful views out to sea. We spent... More

Location,comfort and value outstanding. We saw more wildlife from our terrace and bedroom window than in a couple of national parks.Also a fine sea view. We woke up at dawn- not because the howler monkeys disturbed us but because we did not want to miss seeing them. The bungalow was spacious and private with quality fittings. Home comforts in the...

Agua Vista is an outstanding place to stay. The accommodation, the view, the wildlife, the waterfall, the jungle vegetation, the owners are all first-class. One downside, everywhere else you stay after this will suffer by comparison! More

Agua Vista is simply fabulous in every way. Alex and Khalida are the consummate hosts, and seem to have thought of everything. We stayed in Casa Morpho, and found it to be a beautifully appointed, ready to live in home. The kitchen was nicely equipped with everything needed for cooking. Words could not prepare us for the beauty that surrounded... More

I can't say enough good things about this place! Our 'cabin' with it's own private plunge pool was spectacular. Everything we needed was available, a well equiped kitchen, a washing machine, pool towels, etc. etc. The views were stunning and the wildlife was very entertaining , including an iguana that lived in the roof and took a liking to my...

Wow, this was a super cool place to stay! Loved the cabin and quasi outdoor shower in the bathroom. NO dogs...phew!!! This was great. The host's were fab, and went far beyond expectations in helping us get a memory card to us that we had left in Samara. Enjoyed many an hour on the deck just watching the humming birds...and... More

We have traveled to CR as a family several years in a row and always stay in a different place (from big resorts to quiet B&Bs). This year, we rented two cabinas at Agua Vista and had our best experience ever. Other reviewers have summed it up well- -this is a special place. The highlights for me were seeing the... More

My girlfriend and I stayed in the bambu bungalow at Agua Vista for 7 nights. The property is amazing... a small clearing by a river in the jungle. Each day we were greeted with the peaceful sounds of the water, birds, monkeys, etc. You will see lots of interesting wildlife, make new friends, enjoy the perfect weather by the pool,... More

Here we are at home in Olympia, WA remembering our favorite part of our trip to Costa Rica...it was Montezuma and most of all Agua Vista. We made the best decision ever to trust these reviews, start a conversation wtih Khalida and Alex and stay at Agua Vista. We made the 2nd best decision when we decided to skip Monteverde... More

Coming to Montezuma was a last minute decision, but it was by good travel karma that we did and that we chose Agua Vista. This place was an outstanding highlight of our trip and it is unfortunate that we only had two nights here. It is so peaceful and tranquil that after checking in we sat on the terrace for... More
