We had the most amazing stay! Ricardo was an incredible host—so helpful and attentive throughout our trip. He went above and beyond to arrange shuttle service and excursions, which made everything so easy and stress-free for us. The home itself is absolutely beautiful, spacious, and well-kept, with breathtaking views that we couldn’t get enough of. Everything about our stay exceeded expectations, and we would absolutely love to come back again. Highly recommend!

Absolutely beautiful location and vacation. Ricardo was a wonderful host and so was the cook, Deisy. Our family of 13 felt right at home and had wonderful recommendations for us. We hired a personal chef for a birthday dinner. Thank you for a wonderful time.

Our stay at this mountain Airbnb was nothing short of magical. Nestled high above sea level, the property offers a perfect blend of serene mountain vibes and stunning ocean views that look straight out of a postcard. Every morning, we woke up to birdsong and the peaceful sight of the mist rolling off the hills and blending into the sparkling blue of the ocean — absolutely unforgettable.

The infinity pool view was simply breathtaking. Watching the sunset from the water, with the sky painted in vibrant colors, was pure magic. The home itself was spotless, beautifully maintained, and incredibly relaxing. Every detail—from morning coffee to quiet evenings—made the stay feel peaceful and special. We’re so grateful to Ricardo and Deizy for making our trip unforgettable. We can’t wait to come back 🙂

The view of the ocean was breathtaking and the whole house including Infiniti pool were so inviting we didn’t want to leave the house. Nice breeze most days as well. Ricardo was great at helping us arrange outings, including transportation. A car could be helpful to get around but we had a great local company that was able to take us everywhere we needed to go at a reasonable rate. The rain forest was a doable trip and there are numerous beaches within 15 minutes ride of the house. Loved our stay!

The house was just as described! Plenty of space for our large family! The grounds and house were immaculate. The view and the sunset were amazing! Just secluded enough to feel private and yet very close to the marina for excursions and beach! We would definitely come back. Ricardo was very helpful from the beginning and helped with any and everything we asked

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Airport Transportation Available?

Yes. We can provide transportation as a paid service from the Liberia Airport (LIR) for up to 14 people.

For shorter visits, you probably don’t need it. However, it’s a different story if you’re looking to explore, get out in the area for shopping or other needs, or go to restaurants. Cabs and transports are difficult and expensive to get into the gated community. In those circumstances, we recommend renting a vehicle. Ricardo can assist in arranging car rentals with our contacts.

Send Ricardo your grocery list and he will do the shopping for you before you even arrive for a small fee.

Spend every moment relaxing while we take care of the housekeeping. Our staffing hours are flexible and can accomodate your needs while ensuring your uninterrupted privacy.

Cooking service is available. Just provide the groceries (or have our concierge purchase them for you) and our staff is available to cook all of your meals for an additional fee. You may also enjoy the nearby restaurant Gracia with a delicious farm-to-table menu, where you can take advantage of the sunsets from the swim-up pool bar.

Absolutely! Our host Ricardo knows the area very well and is always eager to help you discover the beauty, great food and fun in the area.

Exterior security cameras on property
Casa Armonia is in a very safe and secure gated community. But even so, rest assured, as there are exterior security cameras on the property. We have cameras at the main entrance, in the garage, and in the perimeter area which are on 24/7. As an added measure, the community also has regular security patrols throughout the night.

There are reasonable community bylaws around noise after 10pm and parties. Speak to Ricardo for more details.
