Most Fantastic Relaxing Vacation Spot on Earch

5 of 5
Submitted: January 15, 2013 Stayed: December 2012
We stayed here for a week over the holidays. We were really trying to get away from it all (and the cold) and it was the most perfect getaway place on earth! We never wanted to leave. Quiet, and relaxing with a beautiful pool and the house is large, clean and has modern conveniences like internet or TV ( not that I recommend using those while in Costa Rica). It's a short drive away from adventures and wildlife parks - although make sure to rent an SUV as the roads are mostly unpaved.

This is the perfect place for a family, couple or a group of friends to spend time together, enjoying the beautiful views and weather that Costa Rica has to offer. The beach nearby is very beautiful and quaint as well.

The best vacation we've ever taken!!

Owner's Response: We have a hard time leaving there too! We're happy you and your friends enjoyed our villa. Depending on where you travel, the roads can be a little challenging, and we would also recommend renting a 4-wheel drive SUV. We hope to have you all back sometime soon for your next getaway in paradise!

WOW...that sums up our 2 week vacation at this property or in the "Jungle!" We wanted to get away and have some true R & R with privacy and we found it here in Costa Rica. Janet and Chris, the owners are a blessing to work with, have a wonderful, comfortable and inviting home..."Thank You" for sharing. Lars and Jenny, their care takers are splendid, making the statement "Ask and you shall receive" come true! We loved the open and airy feeling plus we had all the ammenities of home...a modern day "Treehouse!" The views of the Gulf of Nicoya from the covered patio were wonderful and were the perfect place for massages from Anja! The infinity pool was the perfect place to cool off and again the Gulf views were fabulous. The beach was about 1/2 block from the house and it was clean, quiet and very private. Being coffee lovers, the Diria Coffee Plantation, about 1 hour away, was an educational experience and we will never look at coffee the same way again...unbelievable the time and work it takes to produce coffee beans! We loved the Howler Monkeys and parrots, too! To help when visiting, we would recommend knowing some basic Spanish because that is Costa Rica's lanauage. We look forward to our return and would recommend this property. Thank you Janet and Chris for sharing with us this amazing property.

Owner's Response: You are more than welcome, Tammy and Rick! We are thrilled you had a great time at Villa Tranquila . . . our special “treehouse” (we love that description!)! Thanks for the tip on the Diria Coffee Plantation. We’ll have to put that on our list of “must do” excursions next time we are there. We would love to share our home-away-from-home with you again in the future, so just give us a call!

I was so happy to find this home in this location which is not a typical tourist area. Playa Narjano is one of the best places in Costa Rica if you want to be part of the country. We loved hanging by the pool and hiking all over the grounds and beyond. I loved going to the local market for food and being part of the country and culture! This place is off the beaten path and we felt so pampered in the house!

Owner's Response: My husband and I are so glad you enjoyed your vacation! The things you mentioned - one being "not in a typical tourist area" - is one of the biggest reasons we love Playa Naranjo! I'm glad you enjoyed our villa as well. We hope to have you and your family visit again soon, Chris!

Larry & I took a chance by coming here during the rainy season and we were totally blessed with awesome weather. It only rained once!! This whole week has flown by, of course, we knew it would. We explored the grounds and saw a family of monkeys taking care of business - the sound the mail makes is kind of scary :) . We drove out to Nicoya and Samara to see the beach, but honestly our favorite thing was to just stay home and hang out at the pool with the awesome surround sound stereo system. Only 3 more hours and we have to take the ferry back :( . We have thoroughly enjoyed our stay here in paradise and hope to return soon. Ralph, the caretaker, was great and made sure we had everything we needed.

Anja gave a very relaxing massage and a beautiful pedicure. Everyone was very friendly & helpful, thank God, because we really don't speak Spanish except hello & goodbye :) . We celebrated Larry's 40th birthday and then 4 days later he proposed - wow - what an unexpected surprise!

Thank you for everything!

Where to begin - what a beautiful home - inside and out - watching the ferry on the deck, cooking up fun meals with fresh fish and shrimp.

Lars was always so helpful with everything. Agnes bakes some sinfully delicious pastries. Anja spent an awesome evening with us doing massages and pedicures. Such a great time!

Mitch was a great tour guide to Tortuga with a few great sites on the side. To more great times in Roma del Mar! Cheers!

Loved your villa, Janet! It was amazing - the views, the time spent relaxing around the pool and the people were SO friendly. Lars & Jenny were so helpful. They set up our canopy tour, which was wonderful and exciting. A day of fishing with Capt. Mitch. What a blast. And also the relaxing massages by Anja. She was terrific. Did I mention we saw 3 whales & a sea turtle? That was neat. The monkeys came close by two times as well. We felt like we adopted Leelo the dog. I will miss her. She greeted us every morning, saw us off when we left & was waiting for us when we returned. I love that dog. We are looking forward to another trip here. There is so much more to see & do! Thanks Janet & Chris for sharing your home with us.

Villa Tranquila: A Paradise in the Rainforest

5 of 5
Submitted: July 13, 2011 Stayed: June 2011
Villa Tranquila is an absolute paradise! The luxiourious interior amenities, such as roomy "great room" , up-to-date kitchen appliances, spacious bathroom & kitchen counterdrawer space (great for socializing) complete with all the appliances and comforts of home,and cozy bedding & living room furnishings made the Villa Tranquila a fabulous home-away-from homein a tropical & lush rainforest environment!

The interior of the home was spotless upon check-in, and the pool/ landscaping was beautifully maintained & manicured! The local hosts (Jenny, Lars, Ralf) were not only friendly, but were extremely accomodating to our needs! And the local mini-mart had everything we really needed to cook at home!

We loved cruising around the ATVs to check out all the beaches & rainforests! And the in-home message/manicure/pedicare was A-mazing! The boat tour to Isla de Tortuga was one of our best snorkeling experiences ever!

As Island travelers, if you asked us to compare our experiences in ,Hawaii, Mexico, Virgin Islands, Bahamas and Bermuda to that of Costa Rica, we would rank Costa Rica's Roma Del Mar as our most favorite & most memorable vacations!

The Costa Ricans are genuinely friendly and we found them to be the least assertive with pushing their wares or services to tourists overall!

For tours: We recommend the local tour to Isla de Tortuga through Roma Del Mar's own Captain Ralf, Wave Expeditions' Balsas White Water Rafting tour, "Mirimar" Canopy/Zipline, La Fortuna Waterfalls, Mount Aranel Volacano and the Suspended Bridge tour to name a few!

Photography enthusiasts should bring their long lenses- there are amazing opportunities to take images of wildlife in Roma Del Mar!

As you can see, our experience in Costa Rica was an unforgettable one~we'll be back!!!
