Summary: This place *looks* like the pics...until you're trying to live in it. We travel the world, accustomed to staying in the Caribbean/Ctrl America. We are aware of the things that come w/that--including insects. There were THOUSANDS of crawling ants parading through master bed/bath. We ended up sleeping there, but using diff baths for fear of having to step barefoot through ants to pee at night. The prop mgr assured us the "flying ants" were an agricultural nuisance, & that prop owner fumigated. These were NOT flying ants. They crawled EVERYWHERE, coming through the wood of the house. I have photos/videos I'm happy to share. No other remedy. Disgusting. Lots of disconnects...Like being told that we are responsible for daily pool maintenance, but skimmer basket was snapped off the handle, not replaced. Water level in pool was too low for filter to work properly. They ask you to handwash plastic drinkware (not a real glass in the house--annoying, trying to enjoy a nice wine) & to clean counters, but no kitchen towels. No pool towels. Private farm-like setting. Great view. Convenient location. Overall, felt bare bones compared with the listing, esp for the price (we happily/frequently pay for quality). Folks w/kids note elec cow fence on path--no warning. Almost cancelled before going--inconsistencies in who was listed as owner (Valentino? Jeff?)--seemed sketchy. Turned out ok, but weird. No meet/greet for check-in, alarm was armed (we were told it wasn't). Look elsewhere.

Summary: Villa Serenidad exceeded our expectations! It is a beautiful home and the view is wonderful. We really liked watching the cows and calves next door and meeting Iggy the iguana. The people of Atenas and all of Costa Rica are welcoming and so helpful with those who are not at all fluent in Spanish! I don't think we ever had even close to a bad meal either! We took advantage of having a meal cooked and delivered to us and it was delicious. Our friends joined us for a part of our stay and we heard many exclamations of 'nirvana' and 'heavenly'. Thank you for letting us stay at your property. Maybe the only negative comment we would have is that there is no hammock! That didn't seem to get in the way of our enjoying the pool and veranda, however, so it maybe it isn't a necessity after all.

Summary: We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Villa Serenidad. The house was clean and spacious, with screened doors and windows all around to let in the breeze. The swimming pool and shaded patio were peaceful and inviting. The pool was immaculate and the there were plenty of poolside chairs and tables for our group of 4. The location of the Villa on a dead-end road in a gated community made for a very private stay. The only traffic sounds were the mooing of cows on their way down the path to the river. The Villa was a little further from town than expected (we thought we would be walking to town), mostly because we didn’t understand the reality of roads and pedestrians in Costa Rica. Even so, the drive is short and there are good restaurants, banks and a nice supermarket within a ten-minute drive. We took day trips to the Poás Volcano, Las Mina, and Jaco - all very doable in an easy day. The property manager Eunice was very responsive to the few questions we had (highly recommend WhatsApp for communication), neighbor Heidy made and delivered a lovely Costa Rican meal to the Villa, and Oscar arranged for a very competent masseuse to come to the Villa. We felt very well cared for. It sure was quiet when we had to pack up and leave - very sad to leave this little slice of heaven.

Summary: If you ever wanted to stay in a glass house this is it! Waking up to a gorgeous mountainous view and one step outside you are at the pool. We had American Thanksgiving where the neighbor cooked for us and it was delicious! This house is for 8 people and the open floor plan is inviting and wonderful! I would definitely stay here again! Thank you for sharing such a great place!

Summary: We stay 2 1/2 weeks at Villa Serenidad and enjoyed the vacation with the complete family - 7 adults and 2 toddlers. We particularly liked the rural surroundings and the fantastic view of nature. The children had fun with the farm animals every day and we enjoyed the unusual visitors. We used the pool every day and it is ideal for children. In the village of Atenas there are numerous shopping opportunities and typical restaurants. The wealth of information in the Vills Serenidad manual was very helpful. Valentino was also available for us the whole time and we were happy to make use of his numerous contacts and information. Oscar in particular - driver and friend - helped us to discover Costa Rica's natural parks in a relaxed way on day trips. The vacation in the villa will remain unforgettable for us.

Summary: We had a group of 5 friend stay at the beautiful serenidad. The house was absolutely wonderful. They had everything you need. Waking up to the view everyday was amazing. We live on an island in Marathon, FL so we wanted something different. This house was absolutely amazing for a relaxing vacation. We would definitely stay again.
