“We spent the week between Christmas and New Years. Rented both houses for two family groups. It was wonderful to be a little removed from the dust and traffic of the beach road. The view is incredible and the outdoor space was amazing. The pool was perfect, refreshing and spotlessly clean and it was nice alternative when we didn’t feel like driving down to the beach. The road up definitely requires a 4WD or quad. It’s really too far and too steep to walk into town, so be aware of that. The caretakers were helpful and communicative and kept everything very clean.”

“The view: no picture can describe it better than being there, at sunset or at sunrise! We rented both houses, one is a bit older but fully equipped and one is newer with an amazing balcony and shower overseeing the Malpais area. We had an amazing time due to the small details: hammocks, towels in the common areas, pillows, ambient light, sound system all around the pool, etc. I strongly suggest having a 4×4 car to get there. Don’t hesitate, definitely one of my best places I’ve been to!”
Cristina
“Spectacular views! The house is well equipped and the social areas are amazing!”

Galina
“Gorgeous views and spacious secure place. Need a 4×4 which then makes everything accessible. Monkeys every morning. Was great for our family of 6. Recommended. Adi was extremely responsive in helping us set up special activities (ATV rental, surf lessons, fishing tour, etc). Fantastic.”
Chad
“We absolutely enjoyed every minute of our stay. The views were breathtaking day and night. The host was very helpful and very welcoming. The pool area was beautiful and very clean. The local beach is about 20 mins away where you can also find great restaurants and shops. Definitely a great place to relax and unwind from a busy life.”
Carmel
“We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Mombo’s Dream House. The views were amazing. The pool area and deck were amazing as well. The location was close to Mal Pais, however it is off the beaten path at the top of the hill/ mountain.”
Tyler
“If you want a beautiful house with a breathtaking view, look no further. We stayed for a week and enjoyed the house to the fullest. The pool and hot tub are great. The AC works and is ice cold if you want it to be. Hot water. Lots of great places to eat nearby. Adi was very helpful recommending places and was very communicative throughout our stay. Also has good Wi-Fi if you even need it and the house is private. At night you will hear the beautiful sounds of birds and some howling monkeys. Would definitely stay again.”

“The pictures of this place do not do it justice. I was a little nervous at first that the photos may be deceiving but in fact they were the opposite, the views and property are absolutely incredible. I highly recommend visiting!”

“Can’t rate this place highly enough, such a lovely stay!! The location, cleanliness and tranquility of the house and garden is amazing. We’ll be back!”
Laurianne
“A little slice of private heaven!!! Not much else to say. Close enough to the action and far enough away for some you time and space. Felt like going home every night on the ATV. Yam is amazing!!!”
Michael
“The house was even better than the photos suggested. Short walk from the beach, amazing pizza place/bar just down the road, beautiful kitchen that we cooked in every day. It was a dream, and I just hope we can back someday very soon!”
Rosella
“We had such a wonderful stay at Seth’s! The house is exactly as pictured plus some. Going to sleep and waking up to sounds of the jingle was pure bliss. The house was also extremely clean and we loved the outdoor tub. It was super convenient to have a washing machine as well. I would 100% stay here again if returning to Mal Pais!”
Colby
“Beautiful and serene place in the jungle. If you are looking for a quiet stay away from the busy Santa Teresa center, we highly recommend! It was a ten minute drive away, so a rental car is necessary. We slept very comfortably and the architecture of the house is beautiful.”

“We had such a wonderful stay! The location is wonderful – such a peaceful little abode. Hosts are incredibly responsive and helpful. They have a sweet little coffee shop and restaurant just down the street that is not to be missed!”

“Such a beautiful modern house with two super luxurious bedrooms. The jungle is right in your backyard and the beach just a little walk down the street. Our hosts were super hospitable and courteous. Highly recommend to visit them by yourself!”
