Reviews

• Paradise!

  5/5

  We came upon this home through a local recommendation. And what a great find! From the WELL stocked home (esp. kitchen) to the viewing terrace, the terrific landscaping, the awesome beds, the perfect location, to everything else, this property is designed to create the perfect experience! We travel a lot as a family and we have been to Costa Rica many times, but this home was extraordinary. I read many of the other reviews so I will save you the redundancy. And the owners, well, Just the nicest and most accommodating people you can ask for.

  This is an all around perfect home! Don’t hesitate, book it! We will definitely be going back!!

• We loved our stay at Casa La Roca. The owners have thought of everything, and the view is just incredible.

  The drive up (about 15 -20 minutes from the Ojochal turn off) requires a 4x4, but we had been warned. We were met at the gate to the gated community and driven to the house, which has its own gate, The view from the pool is fabulous and the owners have placed two chairs on the side of the property that overlooks undeveloped land below, where we watched toucans and other birds. The large covered deck , which abuts the pool is perfect for a covered lunch. We used the grill once and it worked well, We were in the property during rain (early days of the stay) and sun and it was beautiful in both. The sunsets are gorgeous, and if one looks the other way, we saw rain and mist in the mountains behind.

  The house is very well-equipped. The kitchen is well-stocked with spices, pots and pans and utensils and has an induction stove. The wine fridge was a nice extra to which we had not paid attention when we rented the place. The entertainment system has access to almost any movie of which one can think.

  The only negative, to the extent one finds it a negative, is that it is not a place you want to leave frequently during the day.

  The beds are comfortable -- far more comfortable then other vacation rental properties at which we have stayed. Good pressure in the showers and two tubs. Lots of towels.

  Excursions: We had planned more, but the comfort of the house limited us to (1) an all day trip to Sierra; (2) ziplining with a local company; and (3) a waterfall near a tilapia farm. We went thrice to the waterfall (first time it was raining so hard, we just turned around; second time in the morning we were the only ones there; and third time we went to check if our daughter had left her glasses, but the place was completely packed).

• Ojochal's Finest

  They say you can�t go back however we did and found our second stay at Casa de la Roca as enjoyable as our first! Once again the owners, Paul & Cindy, provided a 5 star experience for us. As other guests have commented, everything is perfection! We simply absorbed the beauty and ambiance around us. You can�t go wrong selecting Casa de la Roca! There is NONE better!

• Absolutly amazing

  5/5

  The house was perfect each room had its own bathroom which was absolutely perfect. The views of the sunset every night where perfect. Plenty of great places to eat from fine dining to quick bites however the kitchen is so nice you are able to go down to the local store and pick up food to make your own dinner and enjoy it out on the patio. It was an absolutely perfect week.

• Absolutely lovely home!

  5/5

  My husband and I with our 4 sons, age 14-23, traveled to CR after Christmas and stayed at this lovely home. The communication, logistics and other info from the owner, Paul, as well as property managers, Keith and Karen was easy and extremely helpful. The house is very clean and beautifully appointed. It has everything you need. The kitchen is very well stocked with quality cookware and cooking necessities. The pool is lovely as is the property and landscaping. We felt very secluded and private and totally at home. Beds are super comfy and baths have everything you need. We loved hanging out in the morning on the elevated lookout porch with our coffee. One morning we were visited by an interesting pair of brightly colored parakeets. It was really cool to hear the Howler monkeys in the adjacent forest as we had our coffee or swam in the pool. Great restaurants near by as well. Best meal ever at Citrus which is 10 mins away!! We had a very enjoyable stay and would definitely go back!
