Amazing Stay
Wow, what a fantastic stay at Villa Esperanza. The house is beyond beautiful and the location on the beach is amazing. Pictures do not do it justice. Mary, the house manager, is incredibly helpful. We loved having meals prepared by Chef Sebastian and a day trip to Palo Verde through the driver Mary suggested was also great. We had a fun time doing ATV through Conchal Fun. We had great breakfasts at Corazon and dinners at Villa Deveena, Cafe Playa Negra and Mycelium. But some of the best time was just hanging at the house, watching the surfers and walking on the beach. Thank you Lenora and Mary for a wonderful vacation. We can't wait to visit again!

Birthday Trip
The house was unbelievably beautiful! We all felt like we had walked into a postcard. Mary was so helpful and responded promptly when I had any questions. If you are looking for a quiet retreat to the beach that is convenient to Tamarindo, this is it. It was fun to sit on the balcony and watch the surfers while drinking coffee in the mornings. I have zero complaints about this property. We all would highly recommend it to anyone looking for paradise.

Wonderful place
Great location, extraordinary property, very nice host, incredibly accommodating! And Playa Negra is the best. Very close walk to main surf breaks and Hotel Playa Negra for food and drink.

Perfection
The house was amazing and we all had a really great time. We played hise and seek since it was so big. We were all comfortable and the decor was gorgeous. The kids loved the pool. The ocean swimming spot was about a 10 minute walk. The sunsets from the house took our breath away and the iguanas every morning on the rock wall were fun to see. Response to any question was fast and the two chefs (Ben and Arthur and Jen) were a must to have cook for you. Guti Tours, Mojo Surfing, Jet Skiing with Conchalfun.com and Ziplining are a must!!

Beautiful House Near Surf
We stayed at Villa Esparanza for a week at the start of October. Typically this is a super rainy period of time but we lucked out with only an occasional moment of rain. The house is stunning and arguably the nicest house in the area of Playa Negra. It was a three minute walk to the solid surf spot and we found ourselves sitting in the pool waiting to time our sessions. The layout of the house provided tons of space and the house is so large we didn't even fully maximize areas. Three of the rooms are almost identical and have their own private bathrooms. The region of Playa Negra was perfect with numerous quality restaurants and a good launching point for other regions in the guanacaste area. Only drawback for our stay was the building of the house next door and the construction noise you get if you stay on the west side of the house. They are building fast and imagine won't be much of an issue after the end of this year.

Thank you for your comments and glad you enjoyed your stay. I will ensure that construction times are adjusted when guests in the house and yes it should be substantially complete in the next couple of months.

Great time at Villa Esperanza!
We just returned from a 7 day stay at beautiful Villa Esperanza. The house is just as described and the photos are very accurate. Rooms are big and comfortable and it has everything you need to have a great time. It is in a gated community with a mix of house sizes and styles. It is located in a fairly remote area. You will be traveling on a lot of dirt roads! The beach in front of the house is very rocky, but there is a more sandy beach a short walk down or a 5 min drive to Lola's beach grill. Mary and her staff are extremely helpful with developing an itinerary, making reservations for tours, assisting with any issues you might have. We also had a private chef (Ben from PasCam Catering) come two nights, which I highly recommend. Despite the remote location, there are several fantastic restaurants close by. My only complaint about the house is there is a house being built next door and there is some construction noise associated with this. It's not terrible, but they start when the sun comes up at 6:00am and it's something to be aware of. They were not there every day or all day. This is, of course, temporary.

Beautiful home
We had a lovely stay in January at this home. It was very comfortable and the view are incredible!! We had dinner chef Garret prepare dinner 2 nights and Jen dropped by food another night. Both were delish! Mary, the property manager was very, very helpful arranging excursions and food. —Horseback riding with Andres & his father Jesus of Guti tours was the best thing we have ever done on a vacay! We love every minute of our time there.

Amazing week
We did a last minute trip to CR between Christmas and New Years. Lenora and the house managers were absolutely wonderful to deal with. They were incredibly helpful in setting up activities, and helped us set up amazing chefs. The house is beautiful, well furnished, and well stocked! All of the bedrooms are beautiful and extremely comfortable. The kids enjoyed being able to walk down the beach to a fantastic surf break. The beach in front of the house is amazing and quiet. Do not hesitate to book this gorgeous home!

Great place, great location
Go to Playa Negra, stay at Villa Esperanza. Stunning beaches with plenty of stretches of soft sand interspersed with outcrops of ancient black, volcanic rock. And a villa, the word house doesn’t do it justice 10 yards from the beach. 3 true master suites, a well stocked kitchen, verandas, indoor and outdoor eating and gathering areas, and very well maintained. We loved this place, and we get around. My wife and I are often asked if we’d go back to a place. Our stock answer is no....there’s too many places to explore in the world. We’ll make an exception for this place.

Amazing vacation!
We rented Villa Esperanza for almost 2 wks in June. It was a fantastic experience. The house is gorgeous & huge! The views are spectacular. The kitchen was well stocked. The property manager is very responsive and answered every question we had. Some highlights: 1) Mary offered to do initial grocery shopping for us & it was well worth the fee charged. We ordered wine, beer, food to cook for dinner the first night and breakfast the first morning and snacks & it was a godsend. Once you make the drive from the airport on those rough roads and see the amazing views, you don’t want to head immediately back out to get food. You want to put on your suits and jump in the pool & watch the surfers! 2) We did a triple tour with pura adventura (about 20 min drive) and it was fantastic. Best zip lining we’ve ever done with panoramic views of the canopy. We also did a fun ATV tour with them & horseback riding. Highly recommend. 3) as mentioned, the kitchen is truly gourmet & well stocked and for a rental, the knives are decent. We cooked almost every night, enjoying the ocean views as we prepped and cooked. The only drawback is that there is no hood on the stovetop and no place for the smoke/steam to go which makes cooking bacon and sausage in the morning a bit problematic. 3) the house is very spacious. We had 9 people & were very comfortable. There is a beautiful outdoor table that seats 12 and we ate there every night. I was disappointed that we couldnt eat dinner at that beautiful circular table in the photos. Unfortunately there is no light in the room, making it difficult to eat dinner since it gets dark at 6:00. 4) villa Deevena is a wonderful restaurant in playa Negra with a Michelin trained chef and his family. It’s open air in a beautiful setting, unpretentious, extremely pleasant staff and phenomenal food (get the octopus). We loved it so much that we asked Dean (the owner/chefs son) if his dad would do a cooking lesson for us and he did! We met at 9:30 in the morning & he had us prep the veggies and cook & amazing lunch of lobster, shrimp, scallop, grouper and octopus with a red curry vegetable sauce, roasted butternut squash with julienned veggies & mango cobbler for dessert and one drink! The entire experience was only $50! Chef Patrick rocks! Many more tips but I’m out of room! Beware that you are in a remote area & the nearest grocery store is 30 min away - but that’s part of the charm. Bring books!

I am so glad you enjoyed your time at Villa Esperanza and your critique is appreciated. We are contemplating changing out the cook top to convection which should help with the heat (design flaw by our contractor & us not totally understanding the environment we were building in). Fan / light for the dining is on order and should be in place prior to next high season. There is light from upper floor and we like loads of candles for ambience. Cheers & Pura Vida

Amazing! Would love to come back!
This house was a dream. Beautiful home with tons of room for multiple families, great pool, a ping pong table and perfectly located for nightly sunset watching. Close walk to surfing and boogie boarding with a great little hotel restaurant after the waves. Mary was always available to answer questions and provide recommendations. We had a Chef Garrett come in on our last night and cook the most amazing Costa Rican food. Fabulous vacation!!!

Gorgeous home overlooking the Pacific Ocean.
Costa Rica is our happy place, and Villa Esperanza increased our happiness! It is a beautiful luxury home that was extremely comfortable. Lenora and Mary were so accommodating with whatever we needed and our vacation was perfect. From our chef, Garrett, to breakfast at Cafe Negra, to swimming in the pool and jumping waves-we will be back!

Amazing and luxurious home!
Our family of 11 spent our spring break at this lovely home. It was the perfect set up for three couples and our children. LOVE the bunk room. We hosted our nephew's baby dedication and couldn't have asked for a better place! Mary was wonderful to set up the actives and made sure our trip was in order. Loved Michelle, the chef, who prepared fresh and delicious meals to accommodate various tastes and preferences. Loved Villa Esperanza and Costa Rica! Pura Vida!
