Gorgeous home in an incredible setting. Very private, gated, peaceful. Design of home is amazing with one side dedicated to sleeping and another dedicated to living. We especially liked the views, pool, spacious accommodations, how well equipped the kitchen was, and the movie theatre, basketball court and the most lovely housekeeper. Highly recommend!
Our recommendation for improvement is two-fold.
One: to have everything working or note it is broken during the walk through. Nothing was noted to us so we were surprised when we turned on the grill and saw flames shoot out from the knob, that the treadmill inconsistently worked, that several movie theatre chairs did not work and that the hot tub never got above 96 (even though it says it does). We expected the house to have better water pressure and hotter water in the showers. For example the bathroom at the very far side of the house we could only get warm water if the shower was turned at halfway. With no door it was sometimes cold.
Two: We would have appreciated if we could recycle at the house. We were surprised in Costa Rica that this was not an option.
This is a house best for people who can easily do stairs (given 2 bedrooms have steep stairs for access or access to a bath) and it might be good to note this so people are aware before booking.
