The breathtaking views from Villa Sea Forever are magnificent. There’s no reason to leave the property — the exclusive area and private setting, the jungle surroundings and wildlife all around, as well as the luxurious amenities and gracious host. With all that said though, the home is well located for exploring an area of Costa Rica that has yet to be overrun by tourists and maintains its authentic feeling and access to nature. We had a wonderful stay. It was perfect. Thank you.

Nothing can beat the views from this property. There was so much wildlife around, we saw toucans, howler monkeys, and frogs just to name a few. Thomas was super helpful and responsive when we had any questions about the property. We can't wait to return!

Other worldly tranquility

The listing pictures of this home are beautiful, and it somehow is even more beautiful in person. The views of the ocean and the rain forest are magical. The whole home is designed to engage you with nature, yet is still quite comfortable. Unforgettable, once in a lifetime experience.

Amazing, one of the best house rentals I have ever stayed at. One thing to note, don’t drive to the house in the dark for the first time. A 4x4 car is REQUIRED.

We were heartbroken when we had to cancel our reservation 2 days before departure due to a broken ankle. Thomas had given us so much information about the property and the area that we were as excited as children. Our plans are to book next year at the same time!!

Six of us (3 couples) spent 7 nights and thoroughly enjoyed our time here. The house has plenty of outdoor space, including the kitchen, 2 levels of decks, plus the infinity pool, all overlooking the Pacific in the distance. The surrounding forest provides plenty of privacy, and connection with nature. The upper bedroom suite is very spacious and had everything we could ask for. Most nights, we just opened up the sliding glass doors to enjoy the sounds of the rainforest and were quite comfortable with the A/C turned off.We did have a few issues - a couple power outages, no water supply & a failed water pump during our stay. Having spent time in Costa Rica a few other times, we know that power outages are not uncommon. The water being cut off to the area was something new, but Thomas kept us up to date on the efforts to restore the water supply to the community. When the water pump at the property failed, he was responsive and had it replaced quickly. His communication was greatly appreciated and made it easier to enjoy ourselves each day, knowing that any issues were being taken care of for us. A couple of suggestions would be: - include instructions in the welcome package about how to deal with the entrance gate during a power outage. - improve the wifi coverage to include the pool area.We would definitely recommend this property to others and given the opportunity, would gladly stay here again.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND! SPECIAL EXPERIENCE!

Extraordinary is the word that comes to mind. We loved this place from the view to the energy to the vibe to the privacy and tranquility. If you want to get away to a stunningly beautiful and serene place, this is it. You DEFINITELY will NEED a 4x4 to access the property from the highway. So worth it though!!!! Owners are extremely attentive, thorough and responsive. This Balinese Limosan is truly spectacular in every way. We were so grateful to have this experience and to witness beautiful Toucans off the deck each day, hear the Howler Monkeys and the privacy and freedom to shower outdoors in nature. Highly, highly recommend. It’s so worth it.

True Paradise

This house is truly incredible. The first morning I woke up to the sweeping view and sounds of the jungle I couldn’t stop smiling. Pay attention to the requirement for a 4 wheel drive car. The drive into the neighborhood is no joke. If my husband didn’t have off road experience I would not have done it. The room set up worked great for us (2 adults, kids 16, 14 & 8) but if I had younger kids the separate rooms would have felt too far from the primary suite. We spent hours in the pool, watching the jungle wildlife and enjoying the relaxing vibe. Tom, the owner, was incredibly helpful and communicative.

Unique house with incredible views

Paradise. Tranquility. Jungle house with endless ocean views. The only drawback was that it took 25 minutes of heroine 4X4 driving on an incredibly steep road to get to the house from the main road. That ruled out a quick morning surf or walk on the beach and back to the house. You drive down and up once per day. You need a 4x4 vehicle with good power and good clearance and do NOT arrive at night. It took us +4 hrs of drive time between house and San Jose airport so plan accordingly. The mornings and evenings by the infinity pool were magic. We saw many animals in the jungle around us.

Our stay at Villa Sea Forever was pretty incredible. As stated in other reviews, arriving for the first time in daylight is best. The first drive up is quite a ride, especially if you're not used to Costa Rican backroad driving. Slow and steady with the 4 wheel drive and you'll be fine. After driving up and down a time or two, it gets not only easier, but fun.The experience of being at this property was like falling into nature. With everyday life being so overstimulating and busy, being here first felt a bit discomfiting. But waking up to the sunrise over the Pacific and the abundant sounds of nature, you can't help but melt into it all. It's just so relaxing and tranquil on that ridge. We had multiple days with later scheduled activities, which worked out perfectly as we were then able to take advantage of the mornings there, which were the best part of the day. The sun rises around 5:15ish and the following couple hours have the best nature viewing/listening. The paragliding and ziplining suggestions from Thomas were awesome and so much fun. Thomas was also great with communications during our stay. The washer was on the fritz while we were there and he was very responsive. A general note -we found a huge improvement in nighttime bugs when we did NOT use the LED lights over the stove in the kitchen or the pool lights. If you are comfortable with nature and a little adventure, I highly recommend this property. I'm glad I found it and was able to experience it!

The Perfect Getaway

The experience we had last week was, in a word, perfect. The pictures of Villa Sea Forever are accurate but do not do the view and the experience justice. We felt like we were at the edge of the world with our own view of paradise. The Villa itself is incredible, very thoughtfully designed to bring the view in and extremely well stocked for a relaxing experience. We loved leaving the screens open at night, taking a dip in the morning and enjoying our coffee with the sunrise and the views. And the location is perfect for hiking, surfing, diving, ATVs, any number of tours, the beach, waterfalls, too much to list. The Owner was extremely attentive and very helpful. The Welcome letter was very detailed and easy to understand, finding the Villa was easy with Waze and questions were answered very quickly and he gave many recommendations on actives, dining, etc. It is clear they love the place and it shows with the attention to detail and their willingness to ensure guests have a great experience. Anyone looking for an amazing Costa Rican experience, look no further. We can't thank them enough for a great week.

Absolute paradise

My wife and I just returned from Villa Sea Forever, and I can tell you that we absolutely loved it. We visit Costa Rica every year and the serenity and privacy of this property is incredible. I can tell you to take Thomas’ advice and arrive before nightfall your first day. Unfortunately, we did not take that advice and arrived after dark, and the drive up the mountain is a little daunting to say the least.but once you find the property it’s not very difficult the rest of the week.since we arrived in the dark we woke the next morning in complete awe of the stunning view from our master suite. It is even more spectacular than the pictures.we felt as though we were the only ones on the mountain with jungle surrounding us and a magnificent view of the Pacific Ocean and the whales tail.The master suite itself is incredible, very spacious with huge terrace to just sit and listen to all the birds and jungle critters.. you will never want to leave.The pool is very large with spectacular views as well.The design of the house is very unique with its outdoor kitchen, and although we did not cook very much , everything you need is there for you.( keep in mind that there is no oven,just a stovetop and microwave.we opted to eat out most days, and I would highly recommend Scala restaurant and cafe which is about halfway down the mountain.its a little pricey but very good.. All in all a wonderful experience and many thanks to Thomas for allowing us to share this piece of heaven Pura Vida

Amazing Views

While the pictures just don't do the view justice, the property is as described in the description. My wife and I stayed at the property for a week and enjoyed the seclusion and privacy of this property and experience of being emerged in the jungle that surrounds it. It truly allowed us the opportunity to relax and unwind.Many other reviews have commented on the drive to the property. With even a little experience driving on dirt roads, this was not as daunting as it has been described. A 4WD vehicle is needed, but the drive is what allows the property to be as remote as it is and the view to be outstanding. We would leave each day to do something (whale watching tour / ATV etc), come back for a relaxing afternoon by the pool and then go back to town to watch the sunset and have dinner. The drive takes around 15-20 min from the main road, but was well worth it! The wildlife around the property was abundant. We saw toucans, monkey, tons of butterflies, coati and many other bird species we had never seen before everyday while relaxing by the pool. You do need to be conscious of food and trash around the kitchen as some of that wildlife is very curious. We did have a few instances in which the electric went out, but came back relatively quickly and wasn't too much of an inconvenience.The house integrates the outdoors well. We were surprised at the lack of bugs (except for abundant cicadas).Overall - loved staying at the property and will be back again soon!

Home with a View

Loved this place, the master bath floor has a giant king bed with a morning view of the ocean that is unmatched. Two additional bedrooms on the lower floor that the kids stayed in without great views and a little darker which the kids liked so they could sleep in after a long day of travel the day before. On the way in Googlemaps had us turn off the highway one dirt road earlier than necessary which doubled our dirt road travel to the subdivision. The guards were ready for us and promptly let us in. Another 10 minute ride within the subdivision and we were at the lot private gate. Four wheel drive is definitely necessary. We headed out the next day and hiked the Whales Tail which was nice. Not much wildlife and lots of people, you generally park in town and directly enter the beach area with limited walk distance through the forest. Found a fruit stand on the main road very close to the dirt road that leads back to the property (Closest Dirt Road has a sigh for the Jolly Roger bar and restaurant, unfortunately didn't test it out, looked like it has some hot wings, cold beer and great views) There was another soda for breakfast on the same dirt road for consideration. The second night we took up the owner Thomas's suggestion and had Lupita a private chef cook us dinner onsite. She did a great job on shrimp tacos, a mix of chicken and fresh snapper, and a dairy free ice cream and fruit. We had a friend from the US join us for a few Imperials and dinner

Adembenemende vergezichten.

Prachtig verblijf op mooie locatie. Kookfaciliteit buiten tamelijk primitief en lastig bij hardere wind. Aanwijzing route kan duidelijker. Lot 85 moeilijk te vinden. N.B. De borg van 300 dollar wordt daadwerkelijk geïnd en na een week teruggestort op je creditcard account. Kost je 10 euro extra vanwege koersverschil. Waarom niet gewoon als reservering boeken en later annuleren?

Our stay started beautifully, but several issues at the end prompted this review.Location Accuracy: The property is advertised as 15 minutes from the beach, but it's actually 30 minutes. The access road alone takes 20-25 minutes to navigate.Maintenance Issues: The refrigerator leaked significantly multiple times. Despite the host's later claim, he never offered a repairman—we found and fixed the water line leak ourselves.Power Outages: We experienced 3 consecutive days of outages. The 2nd time, we located the breaker outside the gate ourselves (no instructions provided in the welcome book). The remote location meant no cell service during outages, making communication impossible.The 3rd outage was critical. It occurred on our final day while half our group was at the beach. Our vehicle was trapped outside the locked gate. We couldn't shower, flush toilets, or see while packing. We hauled luggage and trash up the steep driveway upon departure. We found no manual gate override instructions or keys, despite visible keyholes. Had we not gone to town earlier, we'd have been locked in and missed our flights.When we raised these legitimate safety concerns, Thomas became defensive and accused us of blackmail. For the premium price paid, we expected professional service and acknowledgment of valid safety issues—not hostility.The property itself is gorgeous with amazing wildlife, but the host's unprofessionalism when addressing fair concerns greatly soured the experience.

Perfect get away

We were a little worried about the weather as we visited during rainy season: never listen to the weather forecast!! It was beautiful every morning and rained late afternoon. The villa is even better than presented. Lots of stuff already supplied by previous visitor (coffee, sugar, vodka (!!). It’s well supplied to cook for two! We could see monkeys and toucans from our patio. We saw a lot of coatis each day almost. The villa is well ventilated at night so you sleep well. Morning comes early with the birds! The ride up to the villa is a little nerve wrecking the first time. Afterwards you get used to it the very next day. Be sure to specify automatic transmissions! I got a shift stick and it was a thrill but you need to be proficient. Do not go up that road on a shift stick if you are nervous of inexperienced! I recommend the jolly roger bar going up! Beautiful view and Absolutely amazong wings / cocktails. Tom gave us great info and useful tips. Beautiful trip, beautiful view, charming villa!!!

Long Road to Paradise

This spectacular home is where the glory of a hundred-year-old Balinese Limasan meets the modern amenities of a luxurious outdoor shower with the most stunning ocean views! Just come prepared for the road to get there, which can be a bit scary, especially when you come home after dark and the fog has rolled in! A very good four-wheel drive is a must. Due to the location, plan to either stock up on groceries and chillout for a few days (nothing wrong with that), or if venturing out, plan to be out for the day. Don’t plan to go hiking or swimming at the beach, etc. and then go back to shower before heading out again for dinner. One trip down, and one trip up the hill is enough for a day. But the beauty, and peace and quiet of this location make it more than worth it! Very private and luxurious. Lastly, the host, Thomas, was super responsive and accommodating.

The location and property are amazing! I will be back!

Spacious and open with everything drawing you the beautiful view. The space is perfect, only what you need and amazing details in the construction and decor. The perfect get away house. You need a 4x4 to get to the location as it's up in the steep hills on mostly non-paved roads. The power went out once but only for a short time.
