I just returned from an excellent 2 night stay at Villas Alturas. The villas have an incredible ,panoramic view of the coast, jungle canopy and mountains. The ride up the dirt road to the hotel is a bit of an adventure and a 4 x 4 is required. But face it, you pretty much need a 4 x 4 anywhere... More

We recently stayed at Villas Altura and it was great. Cindy and her staff treated us royally. The view is fantastic and some local business women drove up to have a drink. We had a great breakfast. The rooms are huge. We will be back.

My husband and I spent two nights at this hotel and wished we had more time. The views were so amazing. Cindy gave of lots of information on different excursions we should take and provided information on the two waterfalls that are nearby, which were excellent. The breakfasts were so delicious.

Villas Alturas was a great experience- we enjoyed the amazing views and has a very comfortable stay. The pool was the highlight of our time at Villas Alturas! The road was the only downside of the trip as it was in poor condition and extremely bumpy.

Beautiful villas close to Dominical Beach so you get both privacy and easy access to bars and surfing. Great pool and decks with rocking chairs to relax. Drive to Dominical for drinks and food at Tortilla Flats or try a surf lesson. Owner Cindy gives awesome advice on activities in the area: Playa Ventanas beach for sea caves, Tilapia fishing,...
