Vista Celestial

We had the most amazing Honeymoon with Vista Celestial!!! The entire staff was just amazing, we truly can not thank them enough for their generosity & hospitality. We were treated like a king & queen from the moment we got there. We arrived VERY late in the evening so they brought us right to our Villa, helped us with our bags & allowed us to check in the next morning with Sharon so we could rest from our wedding & full travel day. Throughout our stay they provided luxury transportation to everywhere we needed to go, whether that be our scheduled excursions or just to the farmers market & the whale tale; we even got a lift from the manager Esteban who took time out of his busy schedule to ensure we got where we needed to go! Our meals were nothing short of perfection, they accommodated everything we needed & always had snacks available to us for after our excursions, or for the late night munchies! All the staff were so knowledgeable on what the chef that evening was making & their delivery on the menu made us even more excited to try new things! We enjoyed all our conversations & greetings from Anthony, Vinnay, Andrey, Jose, Pamela, Noelia & Sharon at every meal! The drinks were amazing as well, especially the watermelon lemonade mixed with vodka made by Jose!!! Our room was ALWAYS cleaned when we left, with fresh towels for showering & the hot tub along with a freshly cleaned coffee maker for my husband every day! The owners Jenny & Greg along with their children ensured they greeted us, which was so very kind of them to take time out of their busy schedules with the on going renovations of Rancho Pacifico to make sure we were enjoying our stay. We full heartedly enjoyed our stay at VC, we can’t wait to return for future anniversaries & to see all of our new friends again! Pura Vida! - Logan & Mackenzie Vandevyvere ❤️

Came to Vista Celestial with my sisters-in-law, and it was such an amazing stay. Everything was wonderful in every way. The accommodations were extremely comfortable and luxurious. The view from the room was incredible. Conceirge arranged whatever we needed in terms of rental car and excursions, and everything is seemlessly charged to your room so you don’t have to worry about paying every day. The food and drinks were delicious. We were not slightly disappointed even once. The chefs are extremely talented. What made Vista Celestial so special was the staff. Everyone was so welcoming, accommodating, and kind. We loved getting to know everyone we met. Things to know: the resort sits high up on a mountain - 20 min drive up of rough terrain. There are also a lot of stairs and a steep hill between the villas and the pool/restaurant. (The staff will pick you up in a vehicle from your villa whenever you need it though.) We weren’t sure if a rental car was the way to go, but I’m so glad we did it because it gave us a lot of flexibility. Definitely recommend getting away to this incredible place.

We came back to Vista Celestial with our 13 month old after visiting as a couple in 2022! The newly remodeled villas are gorgeous with multiple seating areas indoors and outdoors. Our toddler went from 3-4 steps at a time to 15 motivated by crossing between king sized bed, chaise, and breakfast table! Other highlights of the rooms for our family were the plunge pool and outdoor shower - so easy to cool off, warm up, or wash off the sand. The staff provided a cozy pack n play crib (with a quick changeover after an accident) and a high chair so that our baby could eat in the villa. Outside of the beautiful room setting, we enjoyed delicious meals and cocktails with lots of fresh fruit for baby. We got a babysitter through the hotel and went out to Corcovado National Park where we saw a tapir and scarlet macaws! The chocolate tour (including making our own chocolate) was my husband’s favorite part of the whole trip. Also highly recommend massages on the deck of the villa. The on-property waterfall hike is always great and we saw agoutis and many tropical birds and lizards while hanging out on our deck and hiking around the resort. Nearby Arco beach is also a fun low tide adventure ! Notably this visit was during rainy season and it barely impacted our visit - one excursion had to be rescheduled for rainy conditions and we enjoyed the relaxing rain sounds from our villa in the afternoon. Thank you to Jennie & Greg, Pamela, Sharon, Anthony, Jose, Andres, Esteban, and the rest of the team for another perfect vacation! We can’t wait to come back.
