Little peace of heaven. Waking up with a coffee served on your private balcony, surrounded by nature, little frogs, birds and Pearl the Sloth. Such a Magical morning! Eric and Sharon are incredibly welcoming and helpful. Would def recommend !

There was nothing we didn’t like. It was a perfect getaway for us.

Eric and Sharon are lovely, gracious hosts. The villas are quaint each with a private patio and grounds are beautiful with nature all around you. We saw many different types of birds including toucans and there are sloths living in the trees above.

The best service I have ever experienced, our host Eric was there for us at any time, we were able to spot many animals on the property, including sloths, tucans, iguanas and green frogs. The breakfast was always prepared freshly for us when we sat down and the kitchen staff managed to surprise us every day. Every morning coffee was brought to our rooms before we woke up.

We have to search hard to find something we didn’t like. However, when we mentioned the difficulties in regulating the hot and cold water for our showers, Eric was quick to respond in fixing the problem. Eric and Sharon work hard to create a stress free vacation for their guests, who quickly become friends.

The property was lush with flora and fauna. Eric and Sharon created an oasis for the villas that attract beautiful birds and wildlife. Eric gave us a tour, describing the tropical plants and uses, such as the Ginger Shampoo plant. The individual villas are situated for utmost privacy. The open air eating area allowed you to dine in the midst of the beauty with all the conveniences of being served breakfast. Close to two Nacional Parks, Villa Pinas is centrally located. Eric and Sharon are quick to offer suggestions for your destinations and dining enjoyment. They have a private pathway to Playa Negra, making it a short 15 minute walk to the beach.

Everything was perfect. I also want to highlight the great hospitality we received from the owners, that made our stay even more memorable. Eric and Sharon are super nice people who go above and beyond to ensure that their guests have a fantastic time.

Delicious breakfast, very nice and friendly host and staff, the garden is like a jungle and zoo, we breakfasted next to different animals like sloths, red eyed-tree frogs, parrots, tucans, ... ., our stay was so unforgetable!!!!

Very nice and well taken care of garden that feels like paradise. The Villas are as well in really good condition, super clean, nicely decorated and with nice details like the hammock. The breakfast was outstanding and Eric, Sharon and the employees were super friendly. Thank you for the wonderful stay!

Words are not enough to describe this place. Erik went above and beyond to make our stay incredible. The villas are beautifully designed, comfortable and well equipped. We had a lot of towels, beach towels, mosquitos cream and suncream to use. The gardens are super well kept, they have sloths around the area, and you can spot them. Every morning we would have fresh coffee delivered to our villa, and when we mentioned that we didn't drink regular milk, Erik remembered and replaced it for almond milk. Lastly, the breakfast - AMAZING. Everything is freshly made, they have typical food, fresh fruit and the best empanadas we had of my life. If you are planning a stay in Puerto Viejo, this is the place. You will absolutely not regret it. The only I regret is not staying longer. Thank you Erik, Betty&Winston (that are also great hosts).

Wifi could be stronger as cell reception is poor. Also, there was a ~1-inch crack in the sliding door and below the windows just due to the way it had to be designed, we were told, and that led to pesky mosquitoes coming in at night. Ideally that would be fixed, or they’d add a sliding screen / window screen to prevent this (also might lower AC electricity costs on cooler nights), or they’d provide us with a mosquito net for the bed. Didn’t appreciate waking up with 10+ bites every day. Otherwise, lovely stay overall.

Beautiful private villas in a secluded area near Puerto Viejo, complete with resident sloths :) and a super friendly staff. Breakfast is PHENOMENAL. The hammocks are a huge plus. Pool is clean and beautiful, lots of animals around, gorgeous garden and villa terraces where they provide you with morning coffee. We loved hearing the birds at dawn while drinking our coffee. The hosts were super helpful and provided excellent tips, and went out of their way to help us with small issues.

The owners are super helpful, welcoming and nice. Together with their team they made our holidays an unforgettable experience. Every morning the fresh coffee waiting on the terrace (that was a real treat and a great start of the days). Incredible breakfast: local cuisine - homemade fresh bakeries, freshly made juices and local food. Villa was super comfortable, very spacious, clean and it was a pleasure to spend there time. The shortcut to the beach was also good, so you are super close to look at the waves and swim.

We found all exceptional. A very small item I would have liked in our villa was an extra mirror. We had only the one in the bathroom.

The hosts were hands on and very hospitable. Everything from the accommodation to the food and facilities was of a very high standard. We also loved the resident dogs and sloths.

All staff and Eric and Sharon are such lovely hosts giving top tips for sightseeing suggestions. Coffee delivered outside room every morning and even an umbrella when it rained was left out side for us to use. Saw toucan, sloth in actions and tree frogs. The sun star terrace was so lovely. All in all amazing stay definitely recommend, banana Azul for lunch dinner and a supermarket so close was very handy.

There is absolutely nothing we didn't like :)

Villas Pina is a little heaven on earth and even though we stayed for 4nights I really wish we would have stayed longer. Will absolutely come back. There is so much good to say about this accommodation that I don't even know where to start. - First of all hosts... From the second we arrived we have felt so seen and taken cared of and immediately felt like home. Eric and Sharon have been beyond helpful and caring. They shared with us all the best attractions and food places, introduced us to the animals around, took great interest in us every single day, helped to book amazing tour for my husbands birthday, helped us order food and what not! There communication and care was above and beyond and I really really hope we will get a chance to come back one day again! - Room was super comfortable, very clean and had all the amenities you could need! Each villa has amazing patio and our had a view to a sloth that lived in a tree just in front. Gardens around the villas are super gorgeous and you just feel like you are in a tropical heaven. - location is also absolutely amazing. Few minutes walk from the beach, supermarket, restourant and short drive to puerto Viejo. The neighbourhood felt so quite and safe. -- we had absolutely the best breakfast there. Everyday you get fresh juices of the day, fruits, eggs however you like it and another dish of that specific day. It has been so good, I am still dreaming about it :) -- every morning we would get coffee just by our door to start the day - it felt so amazing.

The beach is a bit choppy and restaurants are not walking distance.

Love the outdoor area with the hammock and the daily fresh coffee delivered to our villa.

Having to take taxis everywhere - I should have rented a car.

I love the villa we had, is is roomy, well appointed, spotless and comfortable and have a small kitchenette. The property owners Eric and Sharon are wonderful. They care so much about the local wildlife and have several sloths that live on the property as well as some other nocturnal animals they know visit the grounds at night. They also have adopted homeless dogs and cats that were sweet and friendly. They also assisted us with anything we needed or wanted to do, they know it all. I loved the tiny poison dart frogs the birds and the sloths at the property and in the area. The property is in a short walking distance from the beach and a local restaurant/bar. I would probably get a car rental next time I go to Puerto Viejo.

It is advisable to buy drinks or snacks in a supermarket, as there is not really the possibility to buy something at the property.

Eric and Sharon are wonderful hosts and made us feel very welcomed. The breakfast is excellent. The Villas are clean and comfortable! On top of all, a beautiful garden with several animals to watch and/or pet.

Having a king beg instead of a two queens would have been preferred but not a big deal. Otherwise the property was fantastic.

Beautifully kept and laid out with many amenities. The room exceeded our expectations!
