Couldn't have asked for a more perfect place to stay!
I searched high and low for the nicest place to stay in the area and Im so glad that we found Casa Overlook to celebrate a friend's birthday. After booking this home, Olga from Costa Rica Luxury Lifestyle reached out asking all the right questions to make sure that all of our needs would be met upon check in.
From arranging our airport transportation in a luxury sprinter van, stocking our refrigerator upon arrival, booking our fishing charter and restaurant reservations to arranging for a private chef to cook some of our meals at Casa Overlook... no detail was overlooked.
The home itself was perfect! Sitting on a hillside with a beautiful view of the beach, this was the perfect location to spend our time in Costa Rica. Not one person was disappointed with the accommodations. The beds were very comfortable, the AC was ice cold, the twice daily house cleaning kept the home fresh and orderly, and the hotel quality towels were a nice touch.
If luxury vacation is what you're seeking, look no further than booking Casa Overlook with Olga as your host!

Beautiful luxury villa
Our group had a wonderful time at the Villa. They had all the amenities we needed and was kept in perfect order. The views were amazing and we looked forward to getting visits from monkeys from time to time. I would highly recommend this property to those seeking the perfect Costa Rican vacation!

Rainforest Luxury
Enjoyed family vacation with rainforest location and beautiful views. Lots of space and bathrooms for almost every bedroom. The house is luxurious, beds are comfortable, each room has individual AC and everything was cleaned regularly. Infinity pool beautiful to relax in with monkeys and macaws. House is in a gated community and the road entering is very steep, and guarded by iguanas! We hired Chef Pablo Turel (5 stars) for breakfast and dinners, highly recommend. They are familiar with house. Only down side was property manager who was not responsive until we arrived so I used Playa Hermosa Vacations (5 stars) for planning and questions. We also had some plumbing issues which were responded to and repaired quickly. The maid comes some days and arrives early, so be prepared.

Great Home
The home is amazing. Clean and all appliances work perfectly. The only thing to make sure of is the drive up to the neighborhood. We had a large 12 person van that could barely make it up. The other vehichles, a small van and suv, had no issure. Other than that, great. Perfect distance from Jaco if you want to be there quick, but also peace and quite to escape the crazy.

What a disappointment
We booked this house to accommodate our wedding party. When we all first got there we really enjoyed the amazing views and the wildlife that surrounded us, especially the monkeys! First and foremost, there are no directions to anything regarding the house. We were trying to get the stove/oven working. Turns out there was a propane tank outside by a bush that needed to be turned on, that would have been great to know but not huge deal. Master bedroom has zero closet space because they have it locked. As the days progressed things got significantly worse. Four rooms had leaks from the roof! One was so bad our guest left for other accommodations because it was so disgusting. Beds were covered in whatever was leaking and then the kitchen developed a leak. When we contacted the host about it, they got back to us the following day and said they would send someone out. Well, no one ever came. The next day someone came out for exactly 3 minutes and left. Extremely embarrassing having our bridal party fly in from all over and have to stay in this. Saving the best for last, one of our guest were eaten all over their body by BED BUGS! Are you kidding me?! Absolutely disgusting. We took pictures of everything and wish we could upload them to show people who are considering renting this property. We have traveled to Costa Rica several times and this is by far the WORST lodging experience we have had. The property is beautiful and has great potential but for the price they are charging, the issues we had were absolutely unacceptable.

Heaven on Earth
The home is on top of the mountain surrounded by think rain forest preserve, with a beautiful Infinity Pool overlooking the ocean. The entire Eight-bedroom, eight-bathroom home is charming. Well secured gated community and very close to Jaco beach attractions. The property manager Mr.Mike was very professional, friendly and helpful. Our group had a blast and would highly recommend this property for anyone visiting Jaco.

Not so cool-er
Overall, the property delivered on the description- Monkeys, safety, quiet, large space for family. But there were a few things that weren’t so great.
- One of the bedroom baths had no hot water at all.
- The guest house started to smell like sewage by mid-week through our stay.
Also, there was a cooler (Standard medium sized cooler that was probably 2-3 years old) that we borrowed to take to the beach which was stolen that I reported to the property owner at our departure to replace it. Rick wanted to charge us 3 times the actual cost plus tax to replace this old cooler. Given how much we spent for our time there (increased rates due to the holidays), our honesty up front about the issue, and lack of complaints during the stay about the other things above, I was pretty surprised at the response.
The views are beautiful, but we won’t be staying here again.

An experience all its own
There aren’t enough words to explain how absolutely wonderful this property is. Except for the fact that Jaco itself is so lovely and you don’t want to miss its charm, one could spend an entire vacation at this home. The pool is such an added amenity. Being up on a hill the view is spectacular and you just feel like you are that much closer to the sun. We had the best time the day we spent at the pool. And because Rick connected us with Jaco VIP for concierge service, we had an additional bonus of a pool party complete with chef, bartender and DJ. We were a party of 15 and space was no issue. Nearly every room has its own private entrance and bathroom which is so great for providing privacy and the ability for everyone to come and go as they pleased with no concerns of disturbing anyone else. Beds were comfortable and we had cleaning service every day which was so nice. And the monkeys! What entertainment. But do beware, they are always looking for that door or window someone forgot to shut! Overall we had such a spectacular time and I highly recommend this home.

Casa Overlook review
Our family of 13 stayed here ranging in age from 5 to 73. Plenty of space for everyone with a nice little pool and a great view of the Pacific. We saw monkeys everyday and a variety of tropical birds. Overall a great spot. There are a few items I would call out that prevent this place from being a true 5 star location. This place clearly gets used a lot and seems like the general maintenance and upkeep are a little behind. There are bunch of little things that by themselves seem trivial but add them all together and you have to take away 1 star of the rating, The management of the property is transitioning and I believe that affected the rating for us as well. The new management group seems to be still learning the nuances of this property and doesn't seem prepared to deal with it as we waited multiple days to have a couple easy maintenance issues resolved. I'm sure once they learn a little more it will be great but unfortunately our group had to be part of the learning curve. Overall we had a great experience and for big groups that want to all be together in a property this is a really good spot. We did not have any rental cars, we found a local with a big van that treated our family great and we tipped him well and it worked out great for both of us. You can walk down to the Backyard grill from this spot but we only did it once and we didn't walk back as the house is up on a hill and the road is a little risky to walk on. You can call to the guard house and they will get a taxi for you as well. There are plenty of locals that speak English but if you or someone in your group speaks Spanish that will help out. Pura Vida

If you like to see monkeys...
...THIS is the place! The monkeys come to the house once to twice daily, looking for treats, so if this is something you have never seen before, you will really love this house.
House is beautifully clean. We had 7 adults and 4 kids and there was more than enough room for all of us.
My only wish is that it is walking distance to the beach, but if it was, you’d have to give up the incredible views, so the trade off is worth it.
Lovey home, I highly recommend it!

The house and surrounding grounds are beautiful!
We arrived with a group of 18. There was more than enough room. The house consists of 3 buildings (guesthouse), main house and a 4 bedroom building. We did not need to rent a car, as transportation was easy to find and reliable. We WALKED to several great nearby food establishments and we took a large van to Jaco for shopping and hanging out. It is imperative that at least one person have an international cell phone service/travel plan (I had one for 10 bucks a day via Verizon) Although two secondary house phones are provided, they are dependent upon the internet/ wi-fi. If the internet is not working, neither is the phone or the tv. There is also a portable hotspot in the kitchen, but with a group as large as ours it was extremely slow and/or non existent; nonetheless, we were able to watch shows via our laptop. There is a commercial coffee maker, blender, espresso maker, a large rice cooker on site and a few large/small pitchers. There are more than enough plates/silverware to accommodate 20 people; however, I packed 5 large disposable aluminum pans with lids in my suitcase to cook large meals. It really saved the day during bbq's and such. Walmart is probably better for buying bulk food vs the other smaller stores. Pura Vida!!!!

Beautiful Location
The property is beautiful. From the decor of the house to the pool and the grounds, the property did not disappoint. It is very conveniently located near Jaco as well as Playa Hermosa. Maricela was wonderful in helping coordinate everything from activities to helping us address issues while we were there such as delayed flights, a stolen bag, etc. She also gave wonderful recommendations for places to eat. Rick was great as well with communication prior to our stay and during. We would stay at one of Rent Rica's properties again. Thank you for a wonderful trip that our family of 20 will not forget!

Our dream wedding came true at Casa Overlook
This property is a dream come true! My husband and I hosted our closest friends and family for our wedding at Casa Overlook. Everything exceeded our expectations! The house itself is perfect for entertaining a large group but has enough space for everyone to feel comfortable. We were greeted by monkeys every morning and afternoon. We saw scarlet Macaws, Toucans, and Iguanas as well. The house manager, Maricela was a joy to work with through planning our wedding and also during our stay. She was never out of reach and always so kind. Rick, the house owner was also very accommodating and easy to communicate with. Casa Overlook is a beautiful home that will only make your Costa Rica vacation more magical! Thank you Rick and Maricela for allowing us to have our dream wedding in your beautiful home!

Amazing Amazing Amazing
This house gives you a real feel of a Costa Rican rain forest!! Everything is as described, actually even better. I annoyed Rick and Maricella with so many questions but they were very accommodating and professional. They helped my trip go smooth from transportation, toiletries and excursion recommendations. It rained so much that we stayed in the house most of the time and we do not regret any second of that. The most memorable parts of our trip took place in this house. I would most certainly come back or try one of their other properties! Im still in shock with how great this trip turned out and I owe it all to Maricella.

Mansion in Paradise
I recently stayed at the casa overlook to celebrate a friends bachelor party. The house was perfect location from the beach and local bars as well as the nightlife in jaco. Maricela was able to provide us with can service to shuttle back and forth whenever and wherever we wanted to go without having to pay almost anything. I also felt safe inside the neighborhood with the security guard monitoring the entrance and exit. I would definitely recommend staying here and visiting jaco.

Absolutely Perfect!
This house is amazing! The views are incredible, the layout is perfect for a big group. Never felt crowded. It's a short car ride away from the bars/restaurants on Hermosa Beach, and a few minutes farther to get to Jaco town. But Maricela made it so easy to call a car, order groceries, and get just about anything else we needed. She was a savior and made our trip what it was. She booked and organized everything, and was super responsive during the entire planning phase. I could not have asked for a better host, and would 100% go back to one of her properties in the future. Thanks for an incredible experience.

Our family of 18 stayed five nights at Casa Overlook. This place is fantastic, you will not be disappointed. The views of the ocean are spectacular. The house is located in Playa Hermosa and five minutes from Jaco.
Chef Gustavo's service and food were top notch. Everything you want from a vacation rental.
Internet Service was very fast. Owner provides a US landline. Maricela is awesome for booking trips and making reservations. She knows everyone and can provide you honest referrals.
Best place to eat in Jaco is the Green Room.

The house and Pictures are 100% as advertised. Rooms are spread out so everyone has their own space, but still can enjoy spending time togather in the common areas and around the pool.
I will be recommending Casa Overlook to anyone going to visit Jaco, or Hermosa Costa Rica.

This property was fantastic! Rick and Maricela were very responsive from before booking, through booking, and our stay at the house. They gave our group of 10 excellent recommendations and helped coordinate activities each day. We cannot say enough about the house. If we weren't so eager to plan activities, we could have stayed on the property the entire time. The location was perfect - close to multiple beaches, restaurants, and bars. The views were the best part. No matter what time of day, we got in the pool and enjoyed watching and listening to the waves crash in the background. The house had the most updated amenities and easily fit our group size in all of the communal areas. The master bedroom was one of the most impressive I have stayed in. The bed was comfortable, the air conditioning was easy to navigate, the bathroom included an indoor/outdoor shower. Overall, A+++++ experience!

My friends and I (10 of us total) stayed at Casa Overlook for a week. The best week of our lives! OK, maybe a bit of an exaggeration, but not by much. The house is amazing! The pool is incredible! Sitting in the pool, cold Imperial in hand, enjoying the ridiculous view while monkeys jump from tree to tree -- the best!
The owner, Rick, has set out to make Casa Overlook the best luxury accommodation in Costa Rica. Has he succeeded? You got me, but it's one of the best places I've ever stayed -- and I can't imagine ever staying anywhere else in Costa Rica. He even hooks you up with mobile WiFi and Costa Rican cell phones, such a nice special touch. We had plumbing problems while there -- obviously nothing Rick could have foreseen or predicted. But Rick and his crew: Marisela, who will help you with any problems or arrange zip lining or whatever, and Mario the plumber, got it all sorted out immediately. They could not have been nicer, more capable, or more efficient.
Five stars all around! I hope to be back...

Casa Overlook is an amazing place to stay if you're in the Jaco area of Costa Rica. There aren't enough nice things to say about it. The place itself is amazing with tons of room and a ridiculous view of the ocean and beach.
By far the best reason to stay at Casa Overlook is the super helpful and very responsive Property Manager, Maricela. She was able to point us to all the best spots and recommend places that wouldnt rip us off for ATV Rides and white water raftng. She was even able to secure a dinner reservation at the best restuarant in Jaco after we had tried and failed.
I couldnt recommend this place more to all potential visitors. We will definitely be back!

Casa Overlook was a great place to hold our company off-site meeting! Everything was as described and the property manager was very helpful.

Staying at Casa Overlook was the perfect tropical get away. The most outstanding feature of the home was the breathtaking view from the mountain top looking down to the beach.
Each bedroom was very accommodating having space to hang/put away clothing. The bathrooms were very modern and spacious and we always showered with hot water.
The location was great. There were several bars/restaurants close by that we enjoyed including the Green Room where we could enjoy watching surfing competitions at that their backyard bar on Saturday night. We were also a short drive away from Playa Hermosa and Jaco.
Overall, two thumbs up. Plenty of space for a large group or family. Great place!
10.0 / 10.0
Our stay at Casa Overlook was great! The view of the Pacific Ocean while hanging out in the pool was unparalleled. I would recommend this place to anyone looking to get away from it all. Plenty of room for everyone, close enough to town to do fun things and far enough away to be alone with yourself. Great place.

I loved every moment here at the Casa Overlook. The house was very clean and spacious and had modern amenities. Playa Hermosa and the city of Jacó were very close and provided restaurants and other things for us to do when not at the house. The pool-side view was wonderful. We enjoyed every minute of our time here!
