This house is truly wonderful. Everything is clean and the pool is just perfect. It didn’t bother me personally, but I think it’s worth mentioning that the road behind the house can be quite noisy. Also, the air conditioning is only available in the bedrooms, not in the living area. Would rent again.

Sitting on the patio with a delicious local coffee watching the waves! I've been to several "beachfront" properties but I don't think I've ever stayed in a house this close to the beach. They say it's a public beach, but it is so secluded it's like having your own private beach at your back door. We walked (30 minutes maybe) to Dominical several times for drinks and lunch, great little town!The only drawback is that you have to leave eventually.

Very relaxing

I really enjoyed the Villa. It was very relaxing and the home provided all of the amenities one could ask for. The ocean is right there! Olny thing it would be nice to have a better trail, it was difficult for my elderly mother in law to get to the beach. Thank you for a great home

Birthday/Anniversary

We had a wonderful time in this perfect spot. Ocean in front of us and pool beside us! Truly is paradise . We rented a car and drove to whales Tail, Eco Tamales hot spring spot, Quepos for a sunset cruise. People were friendly and helpful. Communicating with management team was very easy. Would recommend this beautiful house.

LOVE

We love this property! The home is nice, the AC units in the rooms definitely help because it gets so hot. The private beach is a dream. We love the close access and my kids loved seeing the iguanas hang around the pool all week. We love the location of this house as well because its a short drive to Dominical for food but it's also not far from Quepos which has another great option for food as well. We will definitely be back!

Great place but not a surfing beach

Loved the house and the location was great. The pool outside was perfect and we would go play in the water at the beach. Note that the beach right out front of the house is not a good place to play since there are large rocks and swift currents in the area. You have to walk a couple hundred yards north to get to an area you can play safely. Waking to that beach on high tide can be difficult.

Amazing Beach Location

We (My husband and I, and two of our closest friends) stayed at this amazing house from December 28th 2022 to January 5 2023. The house is beautiful, well maintained and is located right next to the beach. It has a wonderful pool and friendly iguanas. During our stay, we walked to Dominical everyday, it only takes 20 minutes to walk there along the beach. The sunsets are amazing to watch. Yougethere is the property manager and is responsive and very helpful. We were very pleased with our experience. We hope to return again!

Perfect Costa Rica Getaway

Three friends and I celebrated our 50th birthdays and treated ourselves to this beautiful home with a pool right next to the beach. The property managers were excellent to work with and were prompt to reply. We had a chef come and provide two meals which was very special. We also had Laura from rockstar yoga Come and do a private yoga session with us on the beach. It was a dream! The home is really well equipped and the pool is amazing! We had such a good time and highly recommend this home for your next vacation

Great place for ladies' holiday

Villa 3 was a dream. Inside the house was lovely with everything you could want. Bedrooms were wonderful. A bit of traffic noise but was extremely unimportant as the place and location more than made up for it. We walked into town, which took about 15 minutes at low tide. We also had a place in the shade for our chairs right near the pool. Only suggestions might be beach chairs you can take to the beach and a boogie board to play with! Caretakers are right there and were very helpful; nice to know someone is so close. We had a great time. Thanks so much!

Beach House near Domincal

The home was nice but not 5000 dollars nice. It needed a deep cleaning to remove the paint that had not been cleaned up in the bathrooms on the tile. It also needs a new refrigerator currently is all rusty and doesn't have an ice maker, and the locks on one of the slider doors are broken. which is dangerous as we had someone show up on the pool deck late in the evening. The pool is very nice as the location is perfect.

Response from VrboOwner on 2 Feb 2023
Thank you for your review and your opinion. We can assure all guests the property is very well maintained & throughly checked everything is in working order. 1. The property is very unique in the area, it has direct access to the beach as no other property in the area. You can corroborate in the reviews, all our guests enjoy this villa very much and are happy with this property. 2. We have a very serious cleaning protocol to ensure the house and property are clean. We have double-checked what Hendrik said and we did not find any paint to clean, all is very clean. 3. The refrigerator is working properly, there is no ice maker and that is why the listing does not say we have an ice maker at the property. 4. The property is throughly checked before check-in. The door lock was working correctly & securely. We always explain to our guests at check-in if something gets damaged this should be reported to our management team, but this was not the case. The lock was repaired the day Hendrick left.

Beautiful Beach location for our Family Spring Break!

Our family enjoyed a great week at Cabilltos Del Mar Sur Villa in Dominical! The home was exactly as advertised online. We arrived late Sunday night to a very clean home ready for us. We were very thankful for the AC wall units in each bedroom bc the house was very humid on arrival but in a matter of minutes each room cooled down and stayed that way throughout the week. They were a great escape after long days out in the sun! We also loved having a private pool at the villa and seeing our Iguana friend each day was a treat! We booked all of our excursions through You Get Here group that manages the homes and each trip exceeded our expectations! All of the YGH staff were wonderful to work with - Very responsive!The town of Dominical is a quiet town just about a mile walk down the beach. Great restaurant options in walking distance! We also traveled to Quepos and Uvita to explore the area - Each way 30 min travel! And speaking of beach, to have private access to this beautiful beach was amazing, not only to watch the sunrises and sunsets, but also to play in the warm ocean water! Our girls LOVED this!Travel to Villa: We rented a car from San Jose to drive to Dominical - it’s about a 3.5 hour drive along a windy two lane road, so prepare for a long travel day if you drive. Thank you for the hospitality this week!

Dominical January 2024

The house is lovely, very clean, well kept and the kitchen is well equipped. The pool is fabulous and the pool iguanas and lizards were a constant source of entertainment during our 2 week stay. The beach is steps away and is gorgeous, as are the sunsets. We walked the beach every morning You can walk to the village of Dominical along the beach when the ride is not high but, even if the tide is in there are two short (50m and 100m) inland trails from the beach around the two impassible points. Dominical is a nice little surf town with restaurants and shops. Overall, this was a great house. That said, there are a few things we did not appreciate before we booked. First, the road noise. These three villas are the only ones on the beach which we really liked. However, they are situated below and parallel to the highway - which is only about 50 m away although there is a steep well treed embankment. The noise of trucks (and their air brakes) will disabuse you of any notion of remoteness. Second, this is a 3 bedroom house, NOT a four bedroom house. The fourth “bedroom” is a comprised solely of a sofa/trundle bed in the upstairs hallway between the two upstairs bedrooms. People walk in front of it when going to the third bedroom or from there to the third bathroom. It was hot and humid during our stay and only the three bedrooms had AC. The sofa bed has no access to AC nor anywhere to store clothes etc. Third, the beach has rip currents, although this seemed common to the area.

no surprizes here

As others have said this home was exactly as pictured and described. Easy to find just off the main road. Check in was a breeze. We had maid service every day. Beds were made, towels replaced, dishes done. The BBQ grill was brand new. Security was good and non invasive. The walk to the beach was short and down a manicured path. The beach itself was off the hook! Large rock formations, soft sandy beach, medium sized waves and almost no other people in sight. The pool was very large. The Dominical playa was fun, only about a mile away, with shops and several good places to eat and drink. There was a decent little grocery store just a few minutes away. The town of Uvita was about 10 miles away and had a large Maxi Pali grocery store and several very good restaurants. The one and only drawback is the main house area is not air conditioned. There are several ceiling fans but it does get warm in the house. But there is enough privacy that it's no trouble at all to jump into the pool for a quick cool down. Each bedroom has it's own AC and those units all cooled the bedrooms nicely. We would definitely return.

Even better than we expected!

There is no way I could put into words what a fabulous time we had staying at this villa. The accommodations are exactly as pictured. The pool was bigger than I expected. Steve assisted us with organizing excursions. All 3 of them were awesome. The staff on the excursions were professional and did an excellent job of entertaining our family. The beach outside the villa was so much nicer than we expected. The sand was super soft. The beach in Dominical had lots of rocks and was hard to walk on. Steve directed us to a great grocery store 15 minutes away in Uvita. Also, he told us of a place where we were able to purchase super fresh and delicious fish, La Macha, about 5 minutes from the villa. We ate at a couple restaurants in town but chose to eat at home more often than not. The kitchen was 20 feet from the pool, who wouldn't? One thing to note is that the villas are closer together than I expected. I actually appreciated that because there were people close by if something were to happen. We chatted a couple times on the beach or in the backyard but otherwise barely noticed each other. The rip tides can be pretty strong, the waves are apt to be big as well. We traveled with 4 teens. We went to Pineapple Tours and rented 2 boogie boards for $5 a day. Boogie boarding on the beach in our backyard was the highlight of the kids' trip. I highly recommend renting through YouGetHere. Everything was managed well, the staff were very attentive and professional and we had the time of our lives. Thank you Steve! You were super helpful.
