Stunning views and house!
We stayed as four adults and two children and loved our time here. Punta Leona is gorgeous and we especially love Playa Blanca. The views from the primary suite are unparalleled and we enjoyed many hours around the pool. We took advantage of the chef services one night and thoroughly enjoyed our experience. The only two elements I would note for guests is that it is an extremely difficult walk to and from the property so a vehicle is necessary unless you are really fit. Secondly, the lowest levelmisnnot air conditioned (including kitchen) so you may find it a bit warm. Otherwise, gorgeous and thoroughly enjoyable experience.

Fantastic Birthday Week
A group of us (5 couples) stayed at this house in mid Dec to celebrate my birthday. The house is architecturally stunning and Juan has great taste in decorating the house with paintings and sculptures. The view from the house and the pool is breath taking and we had many wildlife (Macaw, Tucán, racoon, geckos, etc), come to visit. Some of our guest saw dolphins in the ocean while looking out from the pool deck.
Chris is the property manager who was excellent in terms of communication and helped us arranging many aspects of the trip. We had chief Randall to cook dinner for the week. He and his team did an exceptional job including accommodating to couple guests GF/Dairy free diet.
The walk from the house down to the beach was steep but made for a great daily exercise and playa Blanca was definitely worth the effort. Juan arranged free club access for all house guests which allows the access to playa Blanca.

Unbelievable home away from home
This is by far the best experience we’ve had traveling. Chris booked all of our excursions and gave us an itinerary making everything easy. We highly recommend using Chef Randall. He and his team cooked mouth-watering dinners for us each night. The house has incredible views and more than enough room and amenities for the 4 of us. It’s isolated and quiet for a very relaxing stay. We can’t wait to go again!

First trip to CR
My family and my sister's family spent the week at this idyllic spot! Chris and Juan made sure that our stay was fantastic. Chris helped us book excursions and hooked us up with a chef for multiple meals. One week was not enough to visit all the sites in the country. The home was so beautiful we could have spent the week at the house around the pool and property. A short walk up the road and we visited with the capuchin monkeys as they returned home for the night. There was a pair of toucans that visited daily by the pool and scarlet macaws were constantly around! It was a magnificent vacation. As other reviewers write, the drive to the house is rough. I live on a dirt road, so I thought I would be prepared, but the short drive on the house road was scary the first time and the driveway is as steep as I have ever seen. If I could afford it, we would visit regularly.

Big House!
I have rented a few houses in Costa Rica and this one as a great view. It is a very big house! The only negative if this is a problem for you is that the pool was very cold for The pacific side of Costa Rica. But once you where in after 2 minutes it was refreshing. We seen a lot of wild life in the area.

Outstanding house!
Our family party of eight (ranging from 6 years to 76 years old) have had a wonderful holiday staying at Juan Carlos' amazing house. Set on a hill amidst the jungle and with spectacular ocean and beach views, the house exceeded expectations on every count - spacious, beautifully decorated, immaculately clean, well equipped inside, with plenty of space and seating on the pool deck for relaxing, plus a lovely infinity pool offering a stunning outlook. A house with a real WOW factor. Big thanks to Juan Carlos and Chris, who were very helpful at every stage of our holiday and did everything they could to make our holiday successful. We hired a private chef to help us optimize our time at the house - great food, cocktails on the terrace, and a swim after returning. from excursions were particular highlights. Recommend a trip to Manuel Antonio Nature Reserve and a boat trip to Tortuga Island (we hired a private boat and caught fish, went snorkeling and had an exhilarating ride to and from the island). You do ideally need a 4-wheel drive vehicle - the road to the house and particularly the steep drive approach the house can get slippy during/after rain. So all in all a trip we enjoyed hugely and will remember forever.

When you combine a fantastic piece of real estate with luxurious accommodations and never ending views.... this is what you get. Juan Carlos and Chris went out of their way to make our stay memorable and fun. Chris has all the connections for local activities and was super responsive. Yes... we caught a lot of fish! We loved the house and location. It exceeded our expectations. What a comfortable and fabulous experience!

One of a kind place
It is a great place. The pool is great, the views are great, and the house is great. Tons of wildlife - we had monkeys, macaws, toucans, racoons, iguanas - all right at the house.
The road up to the house is a bit rough for people who are not used to driving in Costa Rica - but after doing it a few times, you do get used to it. The location is good, but it does take some time to get out of the area - it is roughly 20 minutes to Route 34, so you will want to take that into account. Basically, the views and the privacy come at the expense of some time - but that is a tradeoff that we found to be a good one.
Property management is extremely helpful.

Absolutely spectacular house
This was bar none one of the most incredible homes my family has ever stayed in. In total, we had 13 people in our party - ranging from 79 yrs old to 15 yrs, and there was more than enough room to make everyone comfortable. The home itself was tremendous and there were amazing views all around as you are perched up on this vista looking over the ocean on one side and the mountains on the other. We were greeted at sunrise by scarlet macaws and monkeys who were plentiful for the nature watchers in our group. My family generally ventured out to see the amazing sights and tours around the Costa Rica Pacific coastline, and we were always comfortable settling back in on the pool deck when we returned.
The owner Juan and the manager, Chris, went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed throughout our stay. I highly recommend this home for a large family visiting.

The house is amazing
We had a fantastic time on this house. Amazing social spaces. Lovely pool. Everything looks like what you see on the pictures, I guess even better.
The view to the beach is amazing as well. Definitely a great place to hide, rest and have a great time with a group of people.
On rainy season I would recommend to use a 4x4 car to get up to the hill, but is not a big deal either if you are use to CR roads.

Beautiful Views in Punta Leona
Spent a week in Juan Carlos beautiful home with my friends and family. It comfortably accommodated our group of 11 adults! As one of the other reviews stated, a 4x4 vehicle would certainly be helpful but I recommend using the transportation that the property manager recommends or that of the excursions. The views were absolutely incredible!! Waking up to the view from the master bedroom will leave you in awe. We had a chef for the property for our stay and now I don’t know if I can ever vacation without one moving forward . The Property Manager Chris was always available to answer any questions and if there are any issues/concerns he will promptly address them. The owner of the house Juan Carlos was a great host and very kind!! I highly recommend staying at this amazing home if you’re looking to vacation lavishly while enjoying everything Costa Rica has to offer
