Stay at Hermosa Heights

The property is well situated in the hills above Playa Hermosa, with a gorgeous view of the mountains and water. The condo was nicely appointed and very comfortable. One of the best parts was the front patio overlooking the hills and beach. The community is gated which gave added security. We did not use the pool facilities or the on-site restaurant, choosing instead to go to the beaches and eat at local spots for dining. The property manager Jennifer was a joy to work with and answered all our questions quickly and was extremely helpful to arrange excursions and give us information. She was great to meet us when our flight got in late Sunday night and show us around the condo and give us some info about the village of Playa Hermosa and the next town of Playa del Cocos. The village itself and the surrounding areas were great examples of coastal Costa Rica. The people were freindly, great food and very relaxing atmosphere. I would highly recommend this area to visit and a stay at Hermosa Heights to explore the area.

Stay elsewhere.

Our family arrived at this property after a lovely stay in Arenal Volcano area. The reception of Jennifer was in stark comparison from the area we had just been. She was masked up and cold in receiving us and things only got worse. The property was in a gated grounds that was in disrepair. The tile roofs were shabby and worn out. Developments around the area have not been finished or worked on for many years and therefore bring the entire area down to a depressing level. The actual unit is not in any way a “villa” as stated in description. It is a dark, dated, apartment type unit. The parking is down a steep hill. Luggage must be wheeled up by you quite a ways up this parking lot. The pool is dated and small and didn’t impress or feel like vacation. The view on patio was nice. But that is the only positive I can provide. The place is dark. Simply put. Not beachy, not Costa Rican, not vacation. Just depressing and dated. The beach is not in anyway a 15 minute walk. Nor would I want to walk down the street with my kids. The dining options are bad. The toilets don’t want to flush. There is only one shower. And a 1980’s style garden tub. The shower was gross. The kitchen was dated and clean, with some cheap utensils. If you have a limited budget and want to try staying here, I suggest you save your Pennies and go to CR when you can spend more. We booked 4 nights and stayed one. Jennifer wanted to use what’s app to communicate which is frowned upon by the Vrbo community. There needs to be a paper trail. That being said, when she switched to communication on the Vrbo app, she only argued that the property was fine. And saw none of my concerns as valid. We ended up forfeiting the money spent here. No recourse. I hate that about the gamble of vacation rentals. Our stay was then spent in an amazing place that rekindled our love of the wonderful country of Costa Rica.

Dear Sarah, Thank you for your comments. We take our guests' comments very seriously, however after reading your comment we do not share your opinion regarding our property and the complex in general. Your welcome was cordial however it is difficult to show a smile when wearing a mask. The parking area is separate from the property, you have to walk about 75 meters to get there and the hill to climb is small. On the day of your arrival it was raining so the day was dark but our house offers good interior lighting. As you mentioned in one of our conversations our unit has 5 stars and very good reviews, everything is in good working order and in good condition. You were asked several times about the problems with the property and no response was received. We usually communicate by whats app with clients because it is an easier way and it is very common in Costa Rica. Hermosa Heights is a gated community and has a large pool, which offers two water slides. It also offers mini golf and basketball court. This community is a 15 minute walk to Playa Hermosa, using the first entrance to the beach which was shown on the map during check in. We appreciate your comments but unfortunately in this case we do not consider them to be real. Pura Vida !

We ♥️ Hermosa!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our first visit to Costa Rica was wonderful. The villa in Hermosa Heights was perfect for us-great patio and view, the property had a nice pool and mini golf. William from Costa Rica Brokers was very responsive and helpful with questions and planning.We felt very safe in the community and loved that we were close to the beach. You could walk to beach but it’s hilly. We usually drove down and parked for free on street leading to beach. Having 3 restaurants on the beach was great! An added bonus was the Super Bowl watch party at Aqua Sport! There was a small but nice market (Luperon) right in town. We did day trip excursions to Coco, Tamarindo, Cortez waterfall and Monteverde. Easy to navigate around. Overall, a great vacation!
