My boyfriend and I had a great night at Punto de Vista. We wanted time to relax and eat good together and that exactly what we got. Great service, food, and environment. Couldn't ask for more :)
The previous reviews are spot on. The house has spectacular views and the design of the home and interiors are truly amazing. Can’t say enough about the staff, they catered to every need and please follow their advice on local restaurants. We had a group of 12 but you really can have 20 without feeling crowded. The terrain makes travel by foot in the area tricky so take advantage of their ATV to shuttle to the beach (5 mins). This home is so fantastic we had to make ourselves get out and experience the region which is now my favorite place in CR. We saw more wild life at the house than on the National Park tour but the beach at Manuel Antonio National Park is worth the trip. It is a 2 1/2 hour drive from San Jose to the house (there is a small local airport) but definitely worth the trip.
What an absolutely unreal and magical experience we had at Villa Punto de Vista. The site and location are perfect. The design and architecture of the villa is by far the MOST AMAZING home I've ever stayed. The rooms are so well designed- its like you're living in the treetops. There is openness and spaciousness but privacy too- this is something very difficult to achieve but this place is one of the best examples of contemporary architecture. I loved the rooftop deck for sunrise yoga. The hot tub had the best views for enjoying one of Oliver's famous Pina Coladas at sunset! The staff and chefs made everyone feel welcomed and at home. Thank you for an unforgettable experience!
With the rainforest on one side and the ocean on the other, Villa Punto de Vista has stunning views from every room. We saw many animals during our Costa Rican adventures, but the most memorable was the sloth which made its way (slowly) across a rope right in front of the villa! Its geometric architecture suggests a ship floating on the sea, and the engineering required can be appreciated by all. And the fresh mahi-mahi served by the chef was particularly delicious! We went at the end of the rainy season, and in my opinion it's the best time to go!
This place is absolutely stunning and breathtaking. It’s the perfect place to have the comforts of the indoors, mixed with the beautiful outdoors of Costa Rica. It’s very close to beaches, and Costa Rican adventures. The staff are incredible and will make you feel at home, answer all of your questions, and even arrange for all of your needs you can imagine including food, transportation, and much more. This would be the perfect location for any large group looking to spend some time in paradise.
This is BY FAR the most luxurious, well designed villa I've ever seen not only in Costa Rica but all of Central America. Every detail was well thought of, you can't help but appreciate the architecture and effort that went into constructing this. The main house has 8 bedrooms and the guest has two more, so if you have a group of 20-25 friends I can't imagine a better place to spend a week in Costa Rica. Glass walls everywhere give you panoramic views of the surrounding rainforest and the Pacific Ocean - including the iconic Cathedral Point of the Manuel Antonio National Park. We saw tucans, three kinds of monkeys, sloths, and more right from the villa itself. There is a game room, huge kitchen, heated pool on the ground level and a rooftop jacuzzi with 270 degree views that are simply breathtaking. The luxury wouldn't mean much without great service, and they excel at that too. The ladies that cook breakfast each morning always wear a smile and the concierge, Oliver, is as good as they come. As if it couldn't get any better, you can literally walk to the beach from here too (or better yet have them drive you down in their 6-seater 4x4 buggy). If there is a better rental villa in Costa Rica I'd love to see it because Punto de Vista is spectacular!
The place defines vacation in paradise. Oliver takes great pride in providing you with everything you need and giving you the space to have a once in a lifetime experience. The villa itself is an architectural marvel. This place is everything you wish for and more.
A great place unlike any other!
This is THE most amazing villa in all of Manuel Antonio. I have had the pleasure of staying here on 2 trips and the house and staff will leave you speechless. From David's welcoming emails during booking to Oliver and the house staff's overwhelming hospitality during your stay, you will find it hard to put into words how amazing this place truly is. Don't questions it, just BOOK IT!
Stunning!! It made our 14 hour journey worth it! When you arrive and are greeted by smiles and a welcome drink, you know the vacation has has just kicked off. The villa is beautifully designed, maximizing the stunning views. The staff is very attentive, and the chef makes you want to never leave the villa. Thanks so much for a wonderful, restful vacation!
I'm a wedding photographer in Costa Rica and I've photographed sites across the country. Nothing compares to Punto de Vista. The views are incredible and the privacy is amazing. Ollie and the team always take such great care of their guests. The last group I photographed there said they were ruined for any other location. Having a wedding at this villa means you and your guests can all share the site, have group gatherings and meals before and after the wedding, and you can purchase the liquor for your entire week - not just the night of the wedding. Most locations in this area shut down at 9pm but with this incredible villa you can keep your party going all night if you want to. Some of the most fun parties I've photographed in the county were at Punto de Vista. It's truly Costa Rica's most premiere destination for weddings.
