My 4th stay at Villa Selva, I'm there for an extended stay and the feeling is like family. Everyone on the staff is friendly and courteous, super efficient too. This year the bonus was AC in the bedroom, just nice to have to cool the room down for sleeping, didn't need it overnight as Selva gets the jungle evening breezes. Great grounds, super gardens, easy access to the beach and town. Walk or bike everywhere, don't need a car:)

Our time at Villas Espavel was perfect! The grounds were incredibly beautiful, and Villa Selva was just the right size with a large shower, kitchen, outdoor lounge/dining space, and a bedroom that was nice and cool for siestas! The staff on site were very kind and welcoming, too. It was a dream to stay so close to town but be able to go in to our quiet little oasis when we wanted to be out of the hustle. Thank you for sharing this wonderful paradise with us!

“Everything about our stay at the Villa Selva was perfect! The balcony was an awesome place to unwind and we had great views of the lovely pool and garden. Tano and the rest of the staff were gracious and accommodating, and we were near everything Samara had to offer, while having a little space away from the bustle and noise. We would most definitely stay here again.”

Great kitchen stocked with quality pots, pans, and knives. Loved the 'take one leave one' beer in the fridge and coffee to get started. The yoga rancho was a wonderful extra shared space for stretching or reflecting in front of the wall of jungle. I recommend the bike rental for quick zips to the beach and grocery store. Everything was high quality, clean, professional, and secure. Thank you! I hope to return.

We LOVED staying here. The Villa's were all unique and very comfortable. The food was amazing, the pool recharging and the proximity to the beach and the town were a huge asset. Being close to everything yet tucked away and very very quiet make the retreat a very personal memorable event. we will come again

My 3rd stay at Villas Espavel and just a nice as the previous stays. Many of my friends visited and immediately got in touch with the management to see about renting next year. Great location and beautiful layout and surroundings. Friendly and professional staff, safe and secure. I'm booked again next year!

What an awesomely quaint place to see Costa Rica. Outstanding accommodations! The lush vegetation and beautiful pool. Excellent staff. We just loved our room!!
