"Five stars all the way. Villas Rio Mar has an amazing location — close to Dominical but outside the hustle, peaceful and relaxing. Just minutes from the beach, with a beautiful river nearby. The property is gorgeous, the pools are great, the rooms are beautiful, and everything was clean and well maintained. The restaurant was fantastic and the service was excellent. Incredible value — highly recommend."

"This was the perfect house and location for our family of 8 (2 grandparents, 3 forty-somethings, and 3 children (2 11 year olds and one 14). Everyone loved the pool. We also loved the well equipped kitchen, panoramic views of the jungle were we saw toucans, scarlet mackaws and other birds. There were lots of places to sit and chat and a great tv room to watch movies together. There is a large grocery store only minutes away and lots to do in the area. The only drawback is a steep, curvy road up to the place, but our drivers mastered it after a few times. We would love to come back. Perfect place to connect with family you may not have seen for awhile."

"“Stunning” “Best vacation ever!” was repeated over and over by the travelers that went with us! This hidden gem was worth every penny. The house is beautiful, well maintained, nestled in the jungle!!! Truly could have stayed on property for a tranquil vacation easily. The wildlife, monkeys on our balcony, animals in the forest, the countless toucans and birds, plus the owl was our own private nature preserve! Suzanne was very informative and answered every question. Her staff was amazing and so helpful. While there we had Wil Tours provide chef services for a few nights (I'm a foodie and it was delicious!). We also had him book deep sea fishing, horseback riding on the beach (my favorite!!!!), monkey boat, zip lining and chocolate farm tour.!! All were fantastic!To wrap up our time away we had Angelica Spa for massages. So relaxing!Did I mention the pool or the beautiful well maintained grounds, endless tropical flowers and trees. All worth the time to get there!!!Highlight of the trip was the monkeys!!! Just to see them wild in nature and their crazy antics. We will cherish this vacation forever!"

"Beautiful home and amenities!!! Oscar was an extremely helpful concierge!!!"

"Our stay at the villa was absolutely amazing and truly exceeded our expectations. The breathtaking view was one of the highlights of our trip, and we were treated to a vibrant display of wildlife every day, including toucans, iguanas, hummingbirds and macaws. Oscar, the concierge, was fantastic—friendly, helpful, and accommodating. He assisted us with booking tours and offered great restaurant recommendations that enhanced our experience. We highly recommend this villa to anyone looking for a beautiful, nature-filled getaway with excellent service. "
