Paradise found!

We loved our stay at Vila Encantada! The property and home was the best part of our trip! Oscar, the concierge is amazing and is always available to help or book any excursions. Costa Rica was paradise and we can't wait to go back.

Incredible Stay!

The location of the house is far from the San Jose airport but well worth the drive. Oscar the concierge was helpful and responded quicky to our requests. The house itself is definitely up a steep rough dirt road but with a 4x4 it was fine. The house was absolutely beautiful, with stunning views and a lot of wildlife. We saw a ton of toucans, macaws, bugs and lizards. Unfortunately we didn't see the sloth or any monkeys but would hear them at night. Thank you for sharing your house, as we highly recommend it!

Making Memories!!!

I have had the luxury of traveling all over the world as an airline pilot. This was hands down the best place we have stayed at. The photos don't do this place any justice. The tranquility of the location is incomparable! AWD or 4x4 is needed due to the cross of gravel and steepness. The dirt road is easily traveled on if you have an AWD or 4x4. The proximity to everything makes things so easy. Grocery store, restaurants, beach, etc. is only 15-20 minutes away. All the adventurous excursions are very close. A few things I would have done sooner are communicating with Oscar, the concierge, and having him arrange all activities with reputable guides. For us he was able to book fishing/snorkeling, zip lining, ate/coffee tour, Manual Antonio park tour, personal chef, sunset horse beach ride and so much more. He was able to move a few things around to accommodate all of my requests and honestly not sure we could have done it without him in advance. I would HIGHLY recommend having the Chef earlier in your stay. We booked him on the night before we were to leave and if you look at pricing it makes more sense to book for numerous days and/or meals. All in all, what you get when booking this location is worth every penny! The memories our family has made will last a lifetime! Thank you

A perfect Christmas vacation

Our family of 6 took this trip in lieu of giving gifts this Christmas. WE decided we would remember the adventure and enjoy making memories together more than buying gifts. And boy did we! Watching toucans and sloths and sunsets over the ocean from our patio was our favorite. WE also enjoyed horseback riding to the falls, snorkeling, ziplining, and touring Manuel Antonio National Park. Chef Christopher cooked us an elegant meal and served us poolside. Our favorite restaraunts close by were Langosta Felize (casual dining) and Cuna de Angel (fine dining). This home will not dissapoint! Oscar was perfection!

Amazing time in Dominical

Honestly can't wait to come back! The property was beautiful, the communication was perfect, and everything from scheduling pick up from the airport, transportation in the area, at home breakfasts/dinners, to even getting a cake from my birthday went so smoothly. If you plan on staying in the Dominical area, I would highly recommend.

Best Vacation Home/Experience!

I stayed at this property for 6 nights with 7 other friends and it was immaculate! The open air areas were amazing, the AC in the rooms were cold, and the view was perfect! There were gates and an alarm system, so we felt very safe! Definitely make sure you get a 4x4 vehicle on the way up. Our concierge Oscar was SO attentive, set up awesome tours for us, was available for questions at all times, and answered quickly! We love you Oscar! If we ever come back to Costa Rica, we will absolutely stay at the same location!

Villa Encantada is absolutely amazing! My husband and I aggreed this was the most beautiful house we have ever booked. The flora and fauna that surround are breathtaking - truly a piece of Heaven. The villa is exceptionally well done, and the pictures do not do it justice. Oscar the concierge was extremely warm and helpful. There were only four of us, and this house is made for entertaining. We hope to be back with a larger group to share!

My Idea of Paradise

Our stay at Paradise Breezes was fabulous. We stayed at Villa Encantada in November 2018. This is the end of the rainy season and start of the dry season, so we did have some rain but it never spoiled any of our plans. It was mostly at night and it was quite nice to sit and relax under the outdoor area. Our concierge Oscar was amazing and literally took care of everything. I like to make sure all details are taken care of but soon realized that I needn’t have worried as he was on top of his game. Oscar was available whenever we needed anything but never intrusive. He went out of his way on a Sunday to help us find a chiropractor when my husband hurt his back. The Dr. came right to the villa (at a very reasonable cost) and thankfully my husband was able to enjoy the rest of our vacation. Everything was as promised, everything we could have needed was there (including a super blender) for tropical drinks…every utensil you could think of, a lovely welcome package, comfortable beds and lounge seating by the pool. We could not see any other villa’s so it was very private. The A/C works really well although we rarely used it because we prefer the breeze and the fans which was enough. We were visited each day by Toucans and Aracari’s at the pool. Villa Encantada was simply beautiful. From the Jurassic size front entrance door to the ocean view pool you will not be dissappointed. The drive from the main road to the villa requires 4x4 as do most in Costa Rica but it was only a 5 minute drive and you get used to it very quickly. We loved that we were only a short distance from banks, supermarkets, beaches etc. but are still in the jungle in your own paradise. All of our activities, car rental, shuttle pick ups and drop offs went smoothly and they were always on time. We took advantage of the private chef after a day of ATVing so we were very happy to have Jonathan cook a fabulous meal for us and teach us how to make the perfect Pina Colada! We also had massages by the pool which were fabulous. We can’t wait to go back and stay at Paradise Breezes and can't say enough about how excellent Oscar is 😊 He made everything from start to finish the wonderful trip that it was. Pura Vida Oscar!

Incredible Experience in this Beautiful Villa!

My family had a wonderful time at this property. Beautiful house and view of the ocean. Toucans, sloths, parrots, and other amazing animals in the trees all around the home. Local activities were great fun. Locals were extremely welcoming. Personal chef was outstanding. And Oscar from the property management company took care of all our reservations, leaving us with no worries at all!

Beautiful modern mountain home in a remote rainforest.

Our family of 4 had a wonderful time at the Villa Encantada. The beds were extremely comfortable, the kitchen more than adequately stocked, and the quietest location on the remote side of the mountain, requiring a bit of grit driving a 4WD vehicle, well worth it for the daily visits by the toucans, whitetail deer, and wildlife rainforest night sounds. Our concierge, Oscar, booked excursions, the airport shuttle, and 4WD vehicle awaiting at the home for us. He also helped resolve questions/issues about the home promptly.

Great Family Stay at Villa Encantada!

3rd trip to CR, and 2nd to the Southern Region of CR was terrific. This Villa is accurately portrayed in its photos and is a great house for anyone, including young kids like ours, to enjoy. While it is a trek from either San Jose or Liberia to get to this region (either plane or we have driven), we have done this twice and it is well worth it if you are looking for luxury, but not in a high rise or resort community manner. The Villa is tucked back in foothills with Ocean views, daily visits from Toucan's/Aracari's/Parrots await. House is in a gated development and well taken care of by Oscar and Paradise Breeze mgmt. We had a terrific chef in Christopher for a few days as well, which I'd recommend to enjoy the evening view and kick back (Closest restaurants/grocery store are less than a 10 min drive). Ballena Bistro for lunch is a must as food is spectacular (south of Uvita). La Parcela a great spot with a view and very close. 4 wheel drive key as most homes are up steep dirt roads and but Villa Encantada not too far off highway (check if you are looking at other homes as some are way up the hills). Activities are endless. We walked the beautiful beaches, snorkeled with reef sharks, jumped off waterfalls, rode horseback, caught a 500lb Black Marlin and two sailfish (all released!)...all in 1 week. And we were just in one small part of this beautiful country. Riley Family- Mpls, MN

Beautiful home in the jungle

We loved our stay at Villa Encantada. The home is full of anything you will need for a jungle retreat. Beautiful view, full kitchen, towels, poolside rafts and chairs and a lovely staff with Paradise Breeze - Oscar that can get you anything you need. More remote than the hotel heavy areas, this is a more private and relaxed way to experience Costa Rica's central pacific coast. Favorites were the ATV tour, snorkeling catamaran sailing cruise, Manuel Antonio park (get a guide- worth it) After ATV tour- get lunch at Road house- next door- amazing gourmet sandwiches- a big surprise. Happy Lobster was a favorite, as well as PorQue No for views and fish tacos. We had Christopher the chef come 2 nights and the food was amazing- he did cook large quantities so we ended up with 2 nights of left overs- bonus but recommend planning on that. Definitely need 4x4 car! Take that seriously. Great retreat to relax and enjoy the view and sounds of the jungle in between activities. Service is top rate. Thanks for a wonderful family week in the jungle and sunshine!

Amazingly beautiful, Secluded Villa

If you are looking for a "one of a kind" villa in the rainforest, this is it! The home itself is absolutely beautiful and unique, with portions of the house completely open to the outside. The wifi worked great, as did the washer/dryer. This villa really has all the comforts of home!! You can hear the animals chattering away at night and there is no question that you are far away from home! We were visited by frogs, toads, lizards, birds, insects and coati. The property surrounding the villa is beautiful and so secluded. You have the impression that you are in the middle of nowhere - no other people or homes can be seen or heard. In reality, you are only a short drive to Dominical Beach with tons of restaurants, shops and things to do. Before our arrival, we were contacted by Oscar who was so welcoming and easy to talk to. He answered any and all of our questions and really welcomed us to Costa Rica. He arranged all of our tours and provided us with driving instructions to each location. There was fresh fruit, cereal, coffee and milk ready for us when we arrived. We had a little problem with the air conditioning unit and Oscar arranged to have it fixed within minutes. We did the jungle atv tour, the river rafting trip, and the Cano island snorkling tour. I would absolutely recommend each tour. Every guide was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. It was obvious that they are so proud of their country and truly love their jobs. I would recommend this villa to anyone coming to Costa Rica. You definitely need an SUV to access this property and the drive to get to the home from the gated entrance to the paradise breezes complex is intimidating, at first. There are a lot of steep turns and inclines on unpaved roads, but as long as you have a 4x4 you will be fine!! We scheduled a massage with Raquel upon our arrival and it was great! She was a great massage therapist and went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable and able to relax. Highly recommend!!
