The location and views are fabulous. The swimming pool was fabulous as well, however it is deteriorating daily, and will need an overhaul very soon. It is a great place in an amazing area for wildlife if you are a self-sufficient traveler and not expecting to be pampered.

The staff is not welcoming and lacking in direction. The food is very unremarkable, heavy, and unappealing. Overall, the property needs renovation and it is obvious the owners are not present. There is no attention to detail, or help with scheduling activities. Electrical power is limited, so don't expect ice or a mini-fridge in the room, as in other lodges at the same price range.

amazing location, genuine wildlife, exceptional hospitality, lovely guests, just the right size, there is literally nothing around other than jungle, it’s obvious a lot of love has gone into the design of the entire place, the pool and restaurant would win a Picture postcard competition, feels like family run business, shockingly good piña coladas!

a little bit of work would make it even better: eg making sure the screens in the bungalows are all working, the Sun loungers in the pool area are all functional, the shower heads are properly descaled and give a uniform spray again

Visiting Lagunavista Villas is definitely a rainforest/ocean get away. The rooms are wonderful and very private. You are close to nature with incredible views. The meals are very good and served family-style with other guests or separately, if that is your preference. The staff is excellent and your hosts, Greg and Keiko, are warm and inviting. It's a bit like being invited into their home with lots of great conversation, music, and stories. They were very attentive and helpful in setting up activities for us when needed. It is a remote resort - perfect to disconnect (for the most part; they do have wireless) and get to know the creatures of the rainforest. Daily appearances by monkeys, scarlet macaws, toucans, and coatis add to the entertainment. We had a great time.

There really was nothing that we didn't like. Fair warning; since the rooms are private, there may be a number of steps to negotiate when going to the main lodge area.

amazing views, beautiful pool, lovely private plunge pools

had to pay for kayak rental, quite expensive and I feel this should be included in the package. only went out for an hour and it was $40 US each. it is quite isolated out there with nowhere to go so great if you want a quiet relaxing time but not if you want to do lots of stuff

The staff was great! Very welcoming and accommodating to our queries and needs. The views are incredible and the most beautiful scenery I've seen. The animals and bugs were in abundance and interesting to learn along the way. Serene and quiet with nature.

The bugs! It was the rainy season which produces a ton of bugs at night which are attracted to light. So, have a room repellent and just remember this is nature

The location is just amazing. The host makes the stay memorable.

Nothing

Had such a lovely stay here. The perfect place to relax and view the incredible Osa peninsula. The pool was magic! The food was also delicious (and is included). We even had a little plunge pool. Staff all lovely.

Nothing!

The view from our room was stunning. We saw monkeys, Macaws and crocodiles (from a safe distance!). A truly wonderful experience.

Food was good but not great staff pretty good I’ve been a neighbor for years and the place looks great better than it has in a long time we saw a tapir on the property Gregs vision has definitely come to be to bad he can’t get there more often to experience it much love Bruce
