Check-in: the property was a little hard to find at first. Including the villa name in the description would help the checkin process as would including other landmarks besides the nearby hospital. Ricardo and Chela caretakers were excellent hosts and gave us a warm welcome. Patricia very responsive on text.
Villa: massive upstairs suite, kitchen with large island, nice pool and outdoor space. 4 adults and 2 kids fit easily. AC was good. Kitchen was among best stocked I have experienced in VRBO.
Outdoors: pool for plunge and play, perfect for the kids ages 9 & 12. Huge well-maintained lawn area great for soccer, frisbee etc. Large patio but grill was not very functional.
A note on location/neighborhood - the villa has lots of security, as is the case for most urban or suburban houses in Costa Rica. We felt completely safe and comfortable especially with the caretakers on site, but the electric fencing, iron gates etc might be off-putting for those not used to those measures.
