Amazing Everything
We had the pleasure of staying at Villa Pacifico the week after Christmas. Everything about the stay - the house, the staff, the food and the location exceeded our already high expectations.
There were 17 of us - 8 adults and 9 children ages 8-17 and the layout and room count were perfect, thanks to the incredible bunk room for the kids that slept 8, has two bathrooms and a living room area. The kids had a blast, and we used the Movie Theater nightly!
Diego, the House Manager, was there for every need and despite some language barriers was amazing helping plan activities, transportation, etc. Chef Luna and his sister and the rest of the staff (we included Rosa who was there to help with drinks for adults and smoothies for the kids) was such a delight and the food was incredible. The staff was a big part of what made our trip so enjoyable.
The house views and pool/spa were perfect, golf cart access and we made great use of Prieta Beach Club nearby (nice Club with restaurants, pools, great beach, warm water and enough waves to entertain the kids), the golf course (twice), and Papagayo Explorers in which we did the zip-lining/ropes course and the bay exploration on the outrigger canoes.
We were able to stay within the Peninsula the entire trip and enjoy family time while still being very active, enjoy the house while enjoying nature and the animals - monkey's, lizards, etc.
Lastly, very much appreciated working with the owner Laura in advance of the trip. Incredible help!
