Very nice place. Host was great and the place worth the money.
Villa is very large, clean, and dog friendly.
I recommend to Rent ATV. I have a Honda Odyssey with 3500cc motor. I thought I could climb up however I almost broke the car.
Also you should visit santa teresa beach and also mal pais.

We stayed for a month with friends and family coming and going. There was plenty of space for each of us to have our privacy while still being able to gather for dinner and hang out together.
The pool was a nice surprise with it being about 8’ deep on one end. It’s close enough to walk down to the beach through the hotel below.
The staff there are so helpful and welcoming. A/C in each of the rooms make it nice for sleeping.
Last but not least, the view from there is truly spectacular!

The house in Malpais is absolutely breathtaking! The views are incredible, the house is perfect, and the accommodations were better than expected. We did have some troubles upon check in. When I checked in at the house, after a very long drive, I was told that the VRBO property manager did not tell John, the hotel manager, of our arrival and we ended up spending the first night in the hotel as the house was not yet ready for us. This was very disappointing but overall the rest of the week was incredible and would love to go back!

The house is amazing. View and pool spectacular. Rooms clean and comfortable. Cindy the manager helped us with everything an d was wonderful to work with . Set up amazing cooking class with Barb, our dinners, surfing lessons, massages, fishing and zip lining. The house is just above the hotel so nice to be able to walk down to bar/restaurant. Food there was excellent!!! We had tire issues on way there and staff helped us get that situated too!
Note: you absolutely need 4x4 to get to the house. We parked our non 4x4 at hotel and walked up but it is VERY steep.
Probably should have taken shuttle from airport and rented ATVs for the week instead.
Wish there had been more chaises by the pool for everyone to have place to lounge. And yes WiFi did not always function but that seemed to be global issue not specific to house.

Our three generation family traveled to Malpais as this year's annual week-at-the-beach to reconnect and have fun. The setting of Casa Moana couldn't have been more perfect for teenagers through the generations to grandparents. The house was absolutely lovely, equipped with everything we could possibly need. Jon was always readily responsive to all of our needs, and arranged for tours (canopy tour and zip lining, snorkeling and whale watching, surfing lessons for our 2 oldest grandsons, and a tour to the waterfalls and cliff jumping. In between all this activity the lovely pool was waiting for us, to begin and end our days.
I must reinforce the other reviews for this house …. believe us all when we say ATVs are a must, and the preferred way to get around town and to the beaches. It is really not walkable, and the roads are a challenge until you get used to them. With that said, our boys thoroughly enjoyed "chauffeuring" the rest of us around on the ATVs after very quickly becoming acclimated. Cabs are also easy to call and very responsive, should you choose not to drive into town for dinner. I would also caution renters to determine whether the hotel below is open and the restaurant available for meals if you are travelling during the off season as we were. We were able, however, to walk up the driveway to another hotel with bar and restaurant in the property next door. All in all, nevertheless, this was a most marvelous trip and family experience. Our sincere thanks to Aidan and Jon!

Pros: amazing view of the ocean, great pool, and great open living plan- couldn’t hear anyone in their rooms and it was very private. The bathrooms were really nice and the maids cleaned so well every time they were there. There’s also some cool bugs, monkeys, and iguanas around the property which was cool to see! Easy to set up activities with the manager.
Cons: road up requires 4x4 unlike roads in town; these are small nit picky things but WiFi doesn’t reach all rooms and the main fridge was not cold enough but there was a back up fridge for ice and keeping things cold.
Overall an amazing house and we had a fabulous time!

Thoroughly enjoyed our time in MalPais. The house was our own private resort, with stunning views. The weather was great. we even got to see an electrical storm - thanks Aidan! I’m sure you had that set up for us. 😊 We enjoyed the MalPais zip lining, walking in the protected national park in Cabuya, and a trek to Montezuma. Highly recommend quads and/or the side by side 4 wheel vehicle to cruise around in. Perfect family vacation.

We just returned from 2 weeks at Casa Moana and it was awesome. We had 2 separate families and 3 kids under 3 years old. The owner Aiden was responsive to my questions and helped me sort out a snafu with my payment which was appreciated. Highlights: Excellent staff, ability to order room service from the restaurant which was super tasty and unexpected, huge infinity pool overlooking the entire Mal Pais / Santa teresa Coast, gorgeous sunsets. The house was one of the few I have found to be safe for young children and they erected a temporary but effective fence to prevent toddlers from roaming into the pool. The house is HUGE and all the suites have separate entrances/locks so it feels like a private bed a breakfast. We saw all sorts of animals and wildlife on the property. The cleaning staff did an amazing job of keeping the property immaculate. There were a couple things that broke or didn't work great but Carla and the staff we on top of everything and it's the middle of the jungle so we didn't expect things to happen overnight. The property is perched on top of a ridge so the road can be a little dicey coming in. There's a big drop off the back side of the road as you enter the property but we found it only added to the charm of the adventure that is Costa Rica and it keeps you paying attention! Having rented many different homes now in Costa Rica this one was hands down the nicest with a lovely group of people to help you find your way around town. Book it now!

For my husbands 50th birthday, we chose to spend 7 days and celebrate at Casa Moana with six of our close friends. We all thoroughly enjoyed our time at the house as well as visiting the local villages.
The house created the ultimate location to meet in the pool/jacuzzi, gather for meals in the spacious kitchen and dining room or relax in the indoor and outdoor living areas. The house and rooms were all spacious. We all thought the pictures of Casa Moana simply do not do the home justice and the views from all rooms and the pool take your breath away. All bedrooms have their own air conditioning units and sleeping is divine. We all meet up for breakfast at the Papaya Lounge each morning at Hotel Moana, highly recommended. We rented 4 wheelers in Santa Teresa and easily navigated the driveway to the home as well as touring Mal Pais.
Bruno and staff were exceptional! Recommend you set up massages on day one and the day before you leave (more if you can). Having a massage with the light breeze and sounds of the ocean & infinity pool, amazing! We also set up having Nellie prepare dinner for us one evening. Delicious and fine dining without the need to leave your home. One of our friends ranked the meal in the top 3 he ever had in his life! For any excursion you need, just call Bruno & he will set all logistics up for you. So simple!
My husband had a birthday to remember and the rest of the party were also thoroughly impressed with our vacation. I can honestly say that we all had a difficult time leaving Casa Moana and Mal Pais. Counting the days until we can return.

Just got back from a week at Casa Moana... The pictures that Aidon posted on Vrbo does not do the home justice. The house is so much grandeur than what you would expect...Its actually huge! The house is also built like a hotel, so that all the rooms are not next to each other, (everyone has their privacy)..
Pool and outdoor area's are fantastic... I think that Casa Moana probably has the best sunset and moon views around...easy walk into town 15-20 minutes, if you do not have a car....5 minutes down the road if you do have one, make sure its a 4 wheel drive or you wont be able to get to the house...
I have traveled are around the world and this is one of the nicest places I have stayed...
XXXXX 5 stars !!!!

We've stayed in many beautiful places in the past, but Casa Moana is beyond anything we've ever experienced. The pictures really do not do it justice. Each room was nicer than the next and the outdoor living space really made our vacation. Although we were only 2 people staying in the villa, the house is so well designed, it can easily accommodate several couples at once. The infinity pool and sunset views were bar none the best part of the trip. The owner Aidan, was extremely helpful throughout the booking process and Bruno took excellent care of us throughout our 8 day stay. The villa was also ideally located 5 minutes from the beach and from the center of town. We definitely recommend a 4X4 to get around. Although the first drive up the hill was quite challenging, we got used to it very quickly and it was not issue for the rest of the trip. Our stay at Casa Moana was one of our best experiences and Mal Pais is definitely a special place worth visiting. We look forward to making Casa Moana a yearly tradition and we recommend this property to absolutely everyone.

The pictures really don't do the house justice at all. Casa Moana is amazing and is the perfect combination of open air living with enclosed space. The accommodations are grandiose and perfect for families, group getaways or such... spoiled us with the entire house for only two! We ran around looking at every room blinking our eyes at the enormity of it all. The décor is fun, but tasteful. The kitchen is equipped with everything you need, the pool was breathtaking, and the hammocks were a great place to siesta.
The home owner, Aidan, was so helpful and communicative throughout the booking process. William, who is the onsite property manager was very nice and helpful when we needed him (though it should be noted that he doesn't speak English, but we spoke enough Spanish to get by). Marie cleaned the house and she was also extremely nice and very thorough. I couldn't say enough about them both.
The only items worth mentioning of concern is that there was not enough hot water to fill up the spa bath in the master bedroom. It didn't even make it as high as the jets. We waited until the water heater got hot again and managed to fill up the tub to at least cover the jets. Unfortunately, once we got inside the tub and turned the jets on... dead ants came spraying out of them thus abruptly ending our bath.
Seriously, though, it wasn't a big deal... There is a lovely Jacuzzi outside with a view of the ocean and the house is extremely private. Just get naked and relax there. Amazing.

We have traveled to Costa Rica a few times but this was our absolute favorite. We were really not sure about renting a home, but with 6 kids to bring it was really our best option. First off, the owners are so accommodating and just super friendly people. Second, if you have been to the Mal Pais/Santa Teresa area, you need to. It is unbelievably beautiful and quiet. Third, the house is incredible. On the drive up the hill, you are surrounded by trees and the driveway is a steep drive down. The minute you open the door, you are amazed by the views from EVERY room. The view is stunning. Wide open views of the ocean, beach, and even howler monkeys in the trees. The pool is outstanding as well. This home is perfect for those with a large family and for those with kids. The very cool feature is that all the rooms are basically outside of the main area and have their own entrances and locks. Very cool if you are traveling with friends and wish to have your own "semi-private" area. The kitchen, dining, and living room area is all in the center of the home with a large entertainment area upstairs and outside overlooking the pool, grounds and ocean. We had a chef come prepare meals for us two of the nights we were there and the kids were impressed! He was able to get them to eat fish twice!! We also rented side by side ATVs from the Toyota rental place which I highly recommend. That was really a lot of fun and allowed us to visit areas you couldn't reach by car. One other feature was the owners have a lodge directly below the house and you are able to order food from there. We ordered breakfast one morning and they delivered it to us!!! You will not be disappointed in this rental, it offers everything you could possibly need and more. Again, the owners are wonderful and able to assist you with whatever you may need.

Fantastic house and location. There were 12 people in our party and we felt right at home upon arrival. We were greeted by the Hotel Manager, Bruno who helped us settle in and was more than willing to assist us in transportation, takeaways etc. Hiring ATVs is recommended as the dirt road up to the house is very steep and uneven. The house is nicely located though, away from the dust and main road. Short distance to the beach and town. Great experience!!!
5.0 / 5.0
Awesome house and location. There were 10 people in our party and there was lots of space in this house. The pool is great along with the upper covered patio. The road up to the house is very rough and a 4x4 is recommended. You need to drive a short distance (5 minutes) to access a good swimming beach. The house is located up on a hill and is very private and away from the dust. Highly recommend a stay at Casa Moana.
