DEL PACIFICO ESTATE: 12 Bdrms

We had a great time at this beautiful property. We couldn't stop marveling at how comfortable and well appointed everything was! We only had 9 adults and 4 small children in our group, so three 4-bedroom homes was much more than we needed, but it was perfect because we had so much space and privacy. Our host Chloe was very responsive, attentive, patient, and full of recommendations, including stellar transportation and private chef services. All-in-all, a wonderful experience with memories that will last our family a lifetime. Highly recommend!!!

Great family trip celebrating our dad's 75th birthday

We rented all three homes plus Villa Jardin to accommodate our family of 37 people. The Del Pacifico homes were beautiful and very comfortable. One amazing asset for us was the large covered patio next to Casa1 with a catering kitchen. We enjoyed amazing local food produced by the restaurants just down the hill and were able to gather very comfortably on this patio surrounded by palms huge trees and occasional friendly critters. Chloe worked her magic to help us schedule zip line fun, Isla Tortuga snorkeling, horse back riding, etc. and all of our in country transportation. Tony and Cheeto our drivers were the key to making our time in Costa Rica perfect. Tony knows all of the bakeries, fruit stands and magic locations for a brief stop. Thanks Chloe ! Hot water to the second floor showers could be a bit more robust. In summary we had a perfect stay in a very beautiful place. Hope to return . 

Grandpa

The property was awesome!  We celebrated a 50th and 59th Birthday with 19 family and friends.  Chloe was a huge help in scheduling up activities, transportation and meals.  The houses were great and we loved that there was enough room to stretch out and relax.  The beach was close enough to walk to and the restaurants at the bottom of the hill were top notch.  Chef Christian and his team did an awesome job with three breakfasts and three dinners while we were there.  

Chloe was easy to get in touch with and very responsive to all of our needs while we were there.  Robert was great getting us transportation from/to the airport.  Leo hung around after the meals and served drinks to everyone and was also a big help when ever we needed short notice transportation to get everyone where we needed to go.  He even helped us schedule a fishing trip for a few of the guys and they came back with dinner for the evening.  

If you are going to Costa Rica and want a relaxing vacation, the Del Pacifico Estate is a great place to go.  You are far enough from all the tourist that it is quiet and relaxing, but still close enough to do trips around the country.  I would definitely recommend this place and will also look to go back again some day.

We Had a Great 50th Birthday Celebration with 19 Guests

We loved staying at the Pura Vida Casas! The villas are beautiful and have amazing views. Chloe was great and always there to help us with questions, issues, or to set up excursions! It was the perfect set up for our group of 26! It was also a great venue for our intimate wedding. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend the villas, especially for larger groups!
