Casa Celeste - Hilltop Penthouse! Private Pool!
One of a kind hilltop hide away! Amazing, cozy studio condo with great indoor outdoor space flow. A beautiful place to call home in Alta Vista! Private rooftop patio with plunge pool & in pool dining area. This spot makes a great get away for a couple looking to reconnect, or the solo traveller wanting a great place to relax & recharge.
Alta Vista is an incredible local vibrant neighbourhood with a great mix of historic & new developments. Markets & Shops are just a few minutes walk down the road a couple of blocks, and Basilio Badillo is just 5 mins walk away with all of it's shopping and restaurants. The nightlife is just past Basilio Badillo as well about an 8 minute walk to many great bars catering to everyone. During periods of celebration in the year the neighbourhood is very active with festivities and can be loud with fireworks and music, but rich with food and great people.

We truly enjoyed our time staying at Casa Celeste! Everything was within walking distance, and we really enjoyed spending the mornings exploring Old Town, and afternoons lounging in the private pool and deck. Evenings were also spent relaxing, watching the beautiful sunsets and fireworks every night! This casa has absolutely everything you need during your stay and the team at Samson were truly wonderful, they were always available when we needed them and were very responsive. We will definitely be back, and highly recommend staying at Casa Celeste!
Had a great time. Hill is a bit of a climb and 5 flights of stairs. No night club noise but roosters and dogs will wake you early. Private pool was really nice
This is a private property with great views. A good place to stay if you don’t want to be on the beach, with a few caveats.
We are seniors and we’re not prepared for the 5 flights of steps, many with no railings, for entering the unit. Further, the property is up a steep hill and difficult to walk to unless you are young.
Other than that, we got good use of the pool, had a private chef one night, rested a lot, but we did spend most of our time at the beach. I got food poisoning which set us back 24 hours.
This property is just as pictured. Beautiful views with small private pool. They allowed us to drop our luggage in room prior to check in, which was very accommodating. The 75 steps up to the room got easier and easier as the days passed. Pool was not heated for our stay and very chilly and the water fountain was not in working order, which didn't affect our stay. Unless you plan to book longer than 7 days, there isn't housekeeping, but available for a fee. There was pico, guacamole and chips along with a few waters and pops in the fridge. AC is cold and controlled with a remote. Shower is hot with great water pressure. Chair cushions on patio chairs need recovered/replaced. We did have to wash a load of towels to get us thru the vaca. Washer and dryer on patio. I don't think the floor was mopped before our stay. One walk around the place and our feet were filthy - my only complaint.

I can’t say enough great things about this place! Beautiful view, clean rooms, great air conditioning, great shower pressure, comfy bed, friendly neighborhood, the taco stand down stairs is perfect and paired great with the salsa and guacamole that management provided upon arrival! The walk looked intimidating at first, but we both agreed that it made the trip so much more fun. When we were tired we would take an Uber back up! You can literally have dinner on your walk down, you pass so many great food stands! I’m not sure if we’ll ever be able to top this trip!
The views were incredible and the neighborhood is great. We loved the pool, it’s a bit of a hike up the stairs but by the end of the week we didn’t even notice anymore. Great for couples looking for a relaxing getaway.
We had a bit of a mixup at the hotel we were initially staying and they had us checking out 2 nights before our flight! With no availability at our current hotel, found ourselves scrambling to find someplace on the same day for 2 nights. Luckily Alta Vista was open, and everyone was so helpful, it made what might have ended up being a tragic last few days, ended up being the best of the entire trip.
