I really can’t say enough good things about our stay in Savegre. To start off, the property is located on a beautiful hillside overlooking the ocean, with views that are simply stunning. Photographs can’t do justice to the poolside vistas. Add to that all the wildlife that came by during the course of our stay: coatis, toucans, and a whole troop of spider monkeys that swang through to trees next to house one evening. The nearby Manuel Antonio national park is great for a guided tour and sightings of a range of local fauna. But, honestly, we saw even more animals sitting out on the deck (with a glass of wine) than we did on our nature walks. It’s great to be off the beaten path!The house itself is not just well situated, it’s beautiful, modern, comfortable and a great place for any length of stay. If there are any drawbacks at all, it is the road up to the property, but a four-wheel-drive vehicle makes easy work of that. Well worth the effort to be in such a charming place.
I should also mention how helpful the hosts were. Somehow, when we moved on to the next leg of our trip, we managed to leave one of our passports under a bed at the property. We didn’t discover this until we were five hours away. But the host very graciously helped coordinate the recovery of the passport and its transit to our next destination. A real lifesaver! I don’t know what we would’ve done without their help. They were very responsive throughout and their local property manager was very helpful as well.
If you’re looking for an unforgettable experience in Costa Rica, I recommend the property highly. It’s something special!
