Gorda Vista is located on a mountainside, surrounded by lushly forested jungle, overlooking Dominicalito Beach. At an altitude of 564ft above sea level it receives pleasant cooling breezes from both ocean and mountains.

It has been designed as the ideal vacation property making the most of it’s beautiful location and an outdoor living concept. It is perfect for a couple on a honeymoon, a romantic getaway or a family on an adventure vacation.

It is over 5 acres of completely private and secure paradise. You have the entire property to yourself, only having to share with the wildlife. Howler and white faced monkeys stop by regularly to eat from the surrounding trees. Toucans, hawks, hummingbirds, song birds, doves and butterflies are always nearby. To access our jungle villa there is a grand, electrically operated entrance gate within a 10 ft (3m) high security/privacy fence.

The 45-foot infinity edge lap pool has a wider area adjacent to the house which has a raised table and two tiled sunken chairs for you to relax in while sipping cocktails and watching the sun set into the ocean.

Gorda Vista was built and furnished to the highest specifications. The entire ground floor has been cleverly designed to integrate the pool, deck, rancho, covered terrace, kitchen and lounge into one outdoor living space. It can be easily changed into separate outdoor and indoor spaces by simply closing the large glass doors that are on two sides of the lounge wall.
The master bedroom has a large balcony with 2 deck chairs and a table to enjoy the best sunrise coffee you have ever experienced as you listen to the jungle “wake”. It also has 2 standing only balconies offering mountain and ocean views. It has air conditioning, kingsize bed, a large ensuite bathroom with a sandstone shower for two, his and hers sinks, separate toilet room and a ceiling fan. The second bedroom can be used for children or a couple as it has two single beds that can be placed together to make one kingsize bed. It has air conditioning, ceiling fan, ensuite bathroom and 2 standing only balconies with ocean views. There is also a comfortable twin-size day-bed on the terrace for those afternoon naps.
The location of our property will make your vacation easy. Stores, restaurants and amenities are only a few minutes drive away. The beach is safe for swimming and beginner surfing. There are a great variety of nearby tours, activities and adventures for all ages and levels of excitement. We will be happy to discuss all your options when you arrive.
• You must have a 4x4 vehicle to access the property and safely enjoy the Southern Pacific Zone of Costa Rica.

Gorgeous property in amazing location
We have stayed at a lot of VRBO houses and I was skeptical that this one would live up to the amazing pictures - but it did and more! This is a beautiful house on an incredible property. Waking up with a view of the ocean, swimming in the private pool - my husband, kids, and I loved every minute of it. We saw monkeys, toucans, an iguana, tons of lizards, and even a sloth. The owner is very communicative and helpful. We would love to come back some day!

Lovely stay in the Costa Rica jungle
My family enjoyed 4 nights in this beautiful VRBO! The owners are warm and responded quickly to any questions or help we may have needed. The grounds and home are beautiful and well kept. Gorgeous views and all of the kind people we met made our stay in Costa Rica such a fantastic experience. We had a great trip and highly recommend this property.

Perfect and Private Getaway Home
This is an exceptional house in a remote and private area. The hosts were welcoming and responsive. The best feature of the home is the pool. It’s perfect for lounging and laps. We will definitely come again. Make sure to rent a 4x4 - the mile trip from the main road to the home climbs about 500 feet and can get pretty rough in the rain.

Phantastic location
The house has a fantastic location and is beautiful. The outside area with the pool is fantastic. You are in the middle of the jungle, you can see toucans and other birds and hear the howler monkeys in the trees.

Spot On
Our time at the villa was as enjoyable and satisfying from previous stays along the coast with magnificent views, a cascade of flora and fauna to distract and a great outdoors set-up to never require much time inside. We self-catered with no issues using the kitchen and grill and arrival/departure very easy. time inside

Fantastic stay
We loved staying here it was incredible. The open floor plan and the pool were dreamy. From the pool we watched monkeys and toucans go by and at night after grilling dinner we got back into the pool and saw shooting stars. The drive up and down the hill was not for the faint of heart but totally worth it and wonderful

The pool of my Dreams!
We had a wonderful 3 week stay at Gorda Vista! We swam in the pool, read, ate great food & then did it again! We loved the little town of Dominical & ate at some yummy little restaurants. This was our third trip to Cost Rica & it didn’t disappoint!

Beautiful home
This was a top notch house. There’s a reason why it’s all five star reviews. I loved every second of it. The living room can get a little hot since there is no AC due to the open air around the rooftop, but you can always open the sliders. I was just not wanting so many bugs in. So when I got too hot, I’d go sit by the lovely pool and be immediately cool. I saw monkeys, toucans, iguanas, the most beautiful hummingbirds I’ve ever seen in my life. Really spectacular. The owners and the manager are just fantastic. Great communication.

Gorda Vista was perfect!
We loved everything about this VRBO stay. Lovely view, easy check in, comfortable beds, privacy. Dominical is a quaint town with the friendliest ticos/ticas. We enjoyed the beach and the vendors and artists on the beach. My only disappointment is that we could not stay longer! Thank you to Lyle for all of the local recommendations.

Unique outdoor vacation in a wonderful location! The hosts/owners were terrific and the experience was all we hoped it would be. The pool was a fantastic way to end the afternoon as the sun set with magnificent views of the Pacific Ocean. You can’t go wrong renting this gem if privacy, and an outdoor experience is what you seek.

Amazing property
My husband, myself and our 2 boys (11 & 9) have been visiting Costa Rica for several years. We've stayed in the Dominical/Uvita area for the past 3, and this has been our favorite house so far. The location is amazing, the house is very clean, and the pool is the largest we've experienced. We had such a great time listening to monkeys and toucans while drinking coffee in the morning. We visited a close by waterfall multiple times, our boys surfed for 3 days, we went to Reptilandia, went to several different beaches, had great meals at restaurants and at the house. This vacation was one of the best we've ever had. The hosts were great and showed us to the property upon arrival and were very responsive. We can't wait to return!

Wow! We love this villa!
The property is fantastic! Be sure to have a 4x4 to ensure safe travels, better to have a pick-up truck if you can. D and J are very hospitable, responsive, and respectable. The home is very clean and well appointed. The pool is just what you need. My wife and I travelled for our honeymoon and the seclusion of the mountain side is exactly what you need. We enjoyed all the noises of the animals, the stars at night, the sunrises and sunsets. The locality to fantastic food, excursions, and the highway. Please stay here! You won’t regret it.

It was exactly as advertised if not better. After a 3-hour drive from San Jose, Doug and Janet were quick to get us checked in and into vacation mode…very much appreciated! The property manager, Lyle, is super friendly and responsive plus has great recommendations for food and activities; although we spent most of our time in the pool bird watching and listening to the howler monkeys. Highly recommend!
