Spacious, comfortable home in a peaceful neighborhood. Beautiful views and great, private patio with pool. And the steep ups and downs of the gated community’s drive are no problem once you get used to them!

This property is fantastic. The house is large, clean, well-stocked and well maintained. The views from the wall of windows and the pool deck are can only be described as awesome. The drive up the mountain side to the residence is somewhat challenging but we got used to it. For those visiting Costa Rica for the first time should be aware that this house, like most, does not have air conditioning. We happened to spend time there when it was unseasonably warm, so the house got a bit stuffy but a quick dip in the pool made a big difference. Thank you Yvonne and Piet for your help.

Beautiful Mountain Home
We stayed a little over two weeks in this lovely pool house. Very nice kitchen and layout. Very close to Atenas which is a very authentic Costa Rican town. The house has terrific views and a great breeze. Plenty of toucans and aracaris and other tropical birds.

Regardless we will be back
The first day was a little stressful due to the car rental we arranged with property manager, They promised it was going to be at the house, which it wasnt. By the time we did get the car, it was dark and because of the location of the house, we had to arrange taxi to follow and bring us to the house. They only had hand soap at the house so make sure you bring all your personal items you think you may need. As others have stated cooking untensils are also limited and there was no salt, pepper or sugar,or oil to cook with. And I was surprised there was no coffee provided either. So all in all its hard not to enjoy the area and scenery it provided. Its the little things that would bring back the guest.

Spacious home, with a great pool and and amazing view!
Casa Veraneras was a fantastic property in an ideal location. Only a short drive to the center of Atenas, but up in the hills providing you with an amazing view! The pool was refreshing and large enough for swimming laps. An outdoor grill was perfect for BBQing. The house itself is very spacious, and would be ideal for 2 couples since there are 2 master suites on opposite sides, providing plenty of privacy. The property managers are super friendly, helpful, and quick to answer any questions you may have. We definitely enjoyed our stay!

Perfect place to enjoy “the best climate in the world”
For two senior couples travelling together, the villa was perfect. We found it more spacious than the photos implied. The interior furnishings (bed/sofas) were very comfortable. The pool was perfect. In our 19 days, we never tired of the view. Watching day turn to night was stunning. Although the area is not “walker friendly” as the road is steep and winding, one could manage without a car as taxis to/from town are inexpensive.. Saving the best until last…the property managers, Piet and Yvonne. We found ourselves talking advantage of virtually all of their services. Airport pickup/drop off, groceries in place on arrival, meals, in-house “chef”. They made it all happen. Many thanks, P and Y. One suggestion, bring your own favourite cutting knife if you plan to do any cooking😁

Great central location
The house itself is great and the location was a perfect base so that we could explore other areas of the country. A car is absolutely necessary. The pool has a leak and does not filter adequately. The kitchen supplies are minimal but you can get by. Don’t plan on preparing any elaborate meals though.

A lovely home and a wonderful setting
We were very grateful to enjoy this wonderful home located above the city of Atenas, yet not far. We were there to explore the possibility of retiring in a tennis. This house was a perfect launching pad for our trip.The home has everything needed for guests. And Piet is a wonderful overseer of this property and others. Bonus: he picked us up from the airport and had groceries in the refrigerator when we arrived, all for a reasonable fee. The highlight of the home for us are the outdoor living areas. We spent most of our time on the patio and in the pool when we were at the residence. We would highly recommend this property and those who manage it. Thanks R&T

Costa Rican Christmas
This was our first visit to Costa Rica and thoroughly enjoyed it. This will be lengthy but hopefully helpful to others considering this home. -Arrange for Piet to pick you up and take you back to the airport. - Highly recommend renting a car but do your homework. It was insane what the local company charged us for the vehicle we got. Very expensive lesson learned. - The house is located in a mountain area. Be prepared for extremely curvy and narrow roads. My husband did okay driving but I personally never got used to it. It is close to town, 10 minutes maybe. -The town itself is busy but small and you soon start recognizing things. A lot of streets are one way so you just need to stay alert. The flashing yellow light is a good landmark. We did not eat at any restaurants in town so I can’t give an opinion on those. -I downloaded a translation app and this proved invaluable. I can honestly say that everyone we met or approached was extremely kind. - We had Piet buy us some basic groceries for our arrival. You are tired from a day of travel and it is nice to have it there. Go the next day to do your big grocery shopping. -There are a few things that I feel that need to be mentioned about the house. It is a great place but at night the roof “pops” . It sounded like someone was banging on the door. It was loud enough that we got up out of bed and looked all around. There is no A/C. At night it helps to leave the windows open but takes a couple of nights to get used to the different noises. During the hours of 3:00 to 5:00 the sun is directly on the backside of the house. You will not find shade inside or out. There are no blinds on the doors and no sun screens on the pool deck. I hope the owner considers correcting this, it really would be a game changer. -If you need a COVID test prior to returning home, schedule it when you get there. You can get it done town, there are two clinics. You can also get it done at the airport like we did but personally for me it was too close. Four hours before you fly out is too stressful. We also scheduled that, too. -The El Dorado (?) Coffee Tour was very informative but also fun. Skip the lunch part. -Overall we had a great time in a beautiful area but missed our beach, we are water babies at heart.

Atenas is A sweet little town to walk around in and explore authentic cuisine and shopping located very close to this house. The beach, volcanoes and many more fun things are about an hour drive away from this location. Enjoy the drive by stopping and experiencing some roadside shops, fruit stands, and craft stands.

Beautiful Property in a Quite, Safe Area Close to Town
The property managers made the check in process super simple and were very friendly and responsive. The property itself is immaculate and the grounds are well kept with a beautiful view. The only noises you hear are the birds in the morning and the breeze at night. We slept with the windows open every night and loved it. We ate breakfast at the local sodas pretty much every morning and used the grill and kitchen on site for a couple of our dinners. The kitchen had everything we needed and there are several grocery stores in the area to stock food for your stay (but we also recommend eating in some of the local restaurants). The small town of Atenas is a must visit and is only a few minutes away. Safe, clean and many little shops and again, great places to eat. We highly recommend the property.
