We had an absolutely amazing time celebrating my birthday here. The property was clean and inviting. The view was amazing! The property manager, Piet, was courteous and informative! We went during the rainy season, but still had a great time. Daytime was warm & we enjoyed the pool and again, the VIEW! Would definitely recommend!

Amazing stay!!
I just recently just stayed at this amazing location and it was honestly the best! The property manager walked me through all of the amenities and provided all the best contact information for an easy fun stay. The home is nestled up high providing amazing views, especially in the morning time with the sun peaking over the mountains. The taxi driver that was provided was such a good honest individual too. Even brought me out to eat before heading to the airport! =) The house is clean and safe, and no problems whatsoever. The pool made everything even better, photos dont do justice! Will for sure be staying here again!

Gorgeous house inAtenas
For reference we stayed in Atenas Costa Rica April 14th through April 19th. The house is gorgeous, and the view from the backyard is stunning. On two separate occasions toucans came to the tree in the backyard to feed on the berries. We also had 6 head of cows/ bulls wander up one morning while we enjoyed coffee on the back porch. The late afternoons did get warm, but we just cooled off in the pool. We did not see any rain while we were there. The nights do cool down, but was still a little warm for sleeping. Driving was an experience! The roads are very narrow and congested. The hosts were very helpful planning several tours for us. We really enjoyed the coffee farm tour. We did get lost several times In the neighborhood. The roads and driveways all look the same and street signs are minimal. We had to go back to the gate house and ask for directions. They have a map of the neighborhood that we were able to take a picture of, which was extremely helpful. The people of Atenas are super friendly and gracious. Overall it was a fabulous vacation in Costa Rica!

Amazing Villa!
We loved the layout of the home and the location and views. Wished we would have known there is no airconditioning! It got super hot, midday. Also, the roads are super narrow, steep, and winding up to the property. We wished our rental car was smaller. The hosts were awesome. The hot and cold water seem to be reversed. It would have been nice to have a recommendation of great beaches to go to. The one we found was not that great. Everything the hosts recommended was great. Maybe more fans in the house would help. I felt sorry for the massage person, it was so hot for her!

wonderful, spacious house
The property is well-maintained throughout. Th,,e furnishings are very new and comfortable, including the beds. The woodwork is beautiful; I suspect it is some variety of local hardwood. Simply a wonderful property with a spectacular view of Atenas and San Jose in the distance. If you have spent a warm day in the valley, this house is cool and breezy. The host is friendly, prompt, and helpful when you need assistance. We had a wonderful stay of 11 days and recommend this property with enthusiasm.

Spectacular View, Beautiful House, Great Location, Wonderful Property Managers!
The house & property are beautiful & safe in a very nice, gated neighborhood on a mountain. Someone is always at the front to let you in and out. The big screen doors across the back of the house let the breeze in. The pool gets lots of shade, so the water is nice and cold. There was shade on the patio at about 8:30am, so whether you like the sun or shade, you will find a nice spot to sit. The washer and dryer are new and worked well. The owner provided cleaning and paper products. We booked the airport transfers and the dinner delivered on our first night was delicious. The grocery store is within 10 minutes and so are many restaurants. Piet booked 4 of their recommended tours for us and drove us to them, which was so convenient. Atenas is close, but walking there would be arduous (steep slopes) and dark at night, so you'll need a car or to take taxis. Piet and Yvonne had our rental car delivered nearby and drove us to it, and they also called a taxi for us when we needed it. They go above and beyond as property managers - they made our vacation easier and more fun!

Everything was delightful! You must remember that you are in a valley surrounded by mountains and the roads can be steep at times. That being said, Atenas is a wonderful base for exploring many of Costa Rica's towns and attractions. We definitely plan to go back

The photos do NOT do this place justice. Everything we saw and experienced while here was exceptional. Piet ( our host )was more than gracious and friendly, he was a blessing. He invited my wife and I to a Halloween party at a local resort that his band was playing. A perfect evening, thanks again Piet. The house was stunning, views that would take your breath away. We'll definitely be back. After you stay here, you will too.

Piet was an awesome Host, very accessible and patient with our arrival. Checked up on us throughout our visit to make sure everything was ok. The house is beautiful and has an amazing view, worth waking up every morning too! The house itself is gated as well as its in a gated community so it feels pretty safe. Getting to the house can be a challenge, as it is on a mountain and lots of curves, and can get pretty dark at night, but thats in all costa rica and trust me the house is worth it. I would definitely stay there again.

Vacationing above the clouds
Villa Aleva is a beautiful new and modern property located at the top of Roca Verde in Atenas. The view from the pool is absolutely amazing. The bedrooms are spacious and have large windows overlooking the entire valley. We had a good time playing in the pool. Villa Aleva is just a few minutes driving distance from Atenas. The property managers Piet and Yvonne met us at the home when we arrived. Because of the late check-in we ordered some local food and Yvonne delivered to our place right on time for dinner. The food was delicious. If you are looking for tranquility and serenity, we highly recommend this place. Valentino & Keysha

Private, stunning views, everything you need in the house, in terms of the kitchen, tv with all streaming services and laundry, and the pool is absolutely refreshing. Highly recommend.

Piet and Yvonne are absolute gems! My birthday trip for two unexpectedly became a solo trip. Although it was my first time out the country by myself Piet and Yvonne answered all of my questions and were so helpful. I didn’t feel confident to drive by myself and they set private transportation personally themselves driving me to the excursions of my choosing! They were top notch hosts and the views were exactly as pictured even better in person! The house had all the up to date amenities needed to make you feel right at home. I’ve already recommended this place to many of my friends! 10/10 amazing hosts, beautiful views, great people, and beautiful country!! Stay here you won’t regret it!!

I wish I could live here forever!
This property is absolutely amazing. First of all, you won’t find a better view. This property is on the back side of the premier Roca Verde neighborhood, looking out towards San Jose. You have a clear view of multiple volcanoes, and the city lights at night are spectacular! The house itself is everything you could want. The layout is perfect with 2 master bedrooms on opposite sides of the house, which would be perfect for 2 couples, plus there is a 3rd bedroom. Open concept in the middle with a well equipped kitchen. They literally have everything you need to prepare meals, even a salad spinner!! The owners obviously put a lot of thought into the furniture and decor. It’s honestly how I’d want my own house to look. Off the back patio you have a great grill and dining area, and the pool which was fantastic!! We were so comfortable here and will hopefully return!!

Great stay with stunning views
We very much enjoyed our stay at Villa Aleva. The house: This beautiful brand new home is safe, secure and well laid out. The good sized bedrooms had very comfortable beds, the kitchen was very functional and the sunlit great room looks south onto the Central Valley. The pool, deck and patio furniture are top drawer. The furniture inside the house also very good quality. Property managers: Piet and Yvonne, the property managers, are awesome. They look after everything and stocked our fridge with the items we requested on arrival. Piet met us after supper on our arrival to make sure we got to the house. Location: The Villa is located in Roca Verde on top of a hill, so the south facing views are stunning. Roca Verde has 24/7 security and you access the development through the gate house. From the house you can see for miles. We do recommend having a car for this property due to the fact the paved roads are inclined and not suitable for walking. Saying that, Atenas is only 5 minutes away by car, so you are close to the town site. The only thing we did notice is that, on occasion, you can hear the highway 27 traffic when sitting outside on the deck. Great stay and good value.
