There were 11 of us. We loved the house and Rambo our concierge and chef. Rambo knew everything about the area including contacts with the different excursions near VDF. Without him, we would have struggled to know where to go, where to park if we had gotten our own van, etc. Whether we were out and about or stayed at the house, we loved every minute!

Nestled amidst the lush landscapes of Costa Rica, Vista del Fuego is truly a hidden gem that promises an extraordinary vacation experience. From the moment we arrived, it was evident that this place was a haven for relaxation, adventure and culinary delights. The culinary journey at Vista del Fuego was an exceptional highlight. The presentation was nothing short of artistry, and every meal felt like a special occasion. Chef Rambo's attention to detail and dedication to crafting remarkable culinary experiences truly elevated our stay. He accommodated our dietary requests with no problems at all. Rambo served as our concierge which added an extra layer of excellence to our trip. His expertise in planning excursions like Zip Lining, Horseback Riding, ATV adventures and our private guided tour of Manual Antonio made it even more of a memorable experience. The personalized touch and insider knowledge made the experiences go smoothly without any stress. Beyond the exceptional service, what truly sets Vista del Fuego apart was the sense of family. We had the pleasure of spending time with Chef Rambo's warm and welcoming family, Diego, Armando, Anji and their son. Sharing meals together with our new Costa Rican friends created a genuine bond, and it felt like being part of an extended family. These interactions enriched our stay and made it feel like a truly authentic Costa Rican experience. We left with hearts full of gratitude & memories that will last a lifetime.

The house is beautiful and the views are breathtaking. Our family (ages 1-62) enjoyed our stay at Vista del Fuego. Diane was responsive to our questions. Diego was an amazing chef and very friendly. So was the chef who assisted him. Rambo’s meals were delicious. Our driver for the week was Luis. He is very kind and our family truly enjoyed meeting him. Angela kept the house very tidy. I would recommend Vista del Fuego. I’ve really struggled with writing this review. We had a few disappointments during the week, mostly related to communication and expectations. Be very clear about what you are requesting and research the companies and excursions yourself. An example was my DIL birthday. We asked for a private catamaran for the day. $2500+ later (after fees, etc) we had a snorkel boat for 2.5 hours. It was frustrating for our family. We had other excursions that didn’t meet our expectations as well. We did enjoy the house and spending time together there. For outings, I definitely wished I had planned our excursions myself.

This trip was everything we could have hoped for and more! From the excursions to our meals with Chef Rambo, we felt like we were living the life of the rich and famous! There were 10 of us total (5 couples) and the house was the perfect size for us. We had Rambo cook all of our breakfasts and dinners and it was well worth it! He is an amazing cook and we are still missing his meals. The first full day we had a "pool day" at the house and hired the bartender for a couple hours. I am so glad we did this because we were made some authentic Costa Rican drinks! Diego was awesome and so much fun! We did the Jungle buggy waterfall excursion that was beautiful. We learned a lot about Costa Rica and Luis was a great tour guide! We also did a Catamaran Snorkeling/Sunset cruise that I highly recommend! Our last day we did a guided tour through Manuel Antonio National Park where we saw sloths, monkeys and snakes! We ended at the Beach Club where Rambo has them set up chairs and canopy's and you also have a waiter for food/drinks. This trip would be nowhere near how it was if it wasn't for Rambo! This was a stress-free vacation from start to finish because he takes care of everything! I don't think I could go back to an All-Inclusive resort now, that's how amazing this trip was. We are already talking about when we are going back. Don't think, just BOOK IT!

We loved Costa Rica and we loved Vista del Fuego! From the moment we arrived until the moment we left everything was fantastic! Luis picked us up at the airport and was our driver all week long. The drive up and down the mountain was not our favorite part but Luis was an expert and he navigated it well. Rambo coordinated all of our adventures - White Water Rafting, ziplining, waterfall adventures and an amazing sunset ride and snorkeling on a beautiful catamaran. Our favorite was the catamaran - don't miss it! Rambo and Diego cooked all our meals and I would highly recommend arranging the meals to be cooked at the house, you will definitely find it is worth it! Thank you to Angie and Armando as well! On the morning we left for the airport the van got stuck in the driveway and Armando rushed to help and got us on our way! We had a great time and would highly recommend this house and this team of great people!

Would love to return! Owner very easy to contact if needed and the concierge (Rambo who is also 5 star chef) was very responsive. Felt very safe. We did a lot of activities that Rambo coordinated seamlessly. Would highly recommend having some meals prepared by Rambo. Each meal was excellent!! Angie made sure the house was clean each day and her husband Amando took wonderful care of the grounds and pool. All pristine. Plus all the staff were so kind, friendly and went above and beyond to make our family vacation perfect! We are very grateful. No hesitation here…..Book it without worry. Pura Vida, Mercer & Tucker family

The property and home were truly outstanding! Wonderful owner and staff on site. Good communication, outstanding chef/concierge (Rambo) always going beyond to meet our needs, excellent driver (Randall) and excellent property maintenance individual (Amando). With 6 adults and 5 children under 8 the needs and wishes are many and the staff was very accommodating and doing so with a smile. I highly recommend this property.

Our group of 9 family and friends had the pleasure of staying at Vista De Fuego for 7 days. We thought that the grounds and the house were amazing. We were there during the rainy season and it did rain quite a bit, but it was still very enjoyable. Rambo, the Chef and overall house manager, was amazing. We had 3 dinners and 4 breakfasts made by him and it was top notch. In fact, the overall service was great. Armando, the grounds keeper helped us when we had a flat tire. Armando also made us an arch for a very special surprise wedding proposal. Rambo, helped coordinate all excursions and trips and gave great advise for what to expect and when to leave to arrive on time. All of that made for a much easier vacation with 9 people. Oh and his food was quite tasty! He also accommodated any special requests that a couple of our group had. Cons: The road off the highway to the house is a doozy. It took 15 minutes to get to from the highway and it is a very bumpy ride. It also rained most days after 3pm and became very foggy. We had a hard time finding our house in those conditions. We decided quickly that we would always return to the house by 430pm everyday to avoid the stress of it. We were also there in the rainy season which is our own fault! We managed to figure it out but would prefer a house that has a bathroom for each bedroom. We found it difficult to get 9 people out of the door with only 3 showers. That's just a preference. Overall, it was an amazing trip and we felt very much at home. We would definitely return, but maybe in a different time of year. Thanks again!
