About this property

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Private Nature Reserve. Stunning coast views. 3 minutes to the beach.


Lattice House is the ultimate tropical villa. Set in a 60 acre private reserve, 3 minutes above beautiful Playa Hermosa, surrounded by jungle, you will enjoy spectacular ocean views from every room, the decks, and the infinity pool.

Enjoy its unique Bali modern architecture, and custom-designed finishes and furnishings, all imported from Bali. Lattice House was built and has been lovingly maintained as my home, and you will feel as though it is your own private paradise for your stay.

You will have an onsite manager/concierge and an onsite chef to take care of your ground transportation, activities, catered meals, and restaurant reservations, so that you can spend all your time just relaxing and enjoying your stay.

Lattice House is conveniently located half-way between Dominical and Uvita, right off the coast highway. You won’t have to spend your valuable vacation time driving up and down mountain roads to enjoy incredible views and privacy. The reserve encompasses large park-like spaces, orchards, and jungle, with trails leading to numerous streams and waterfalls. In any direction, you see only white water coastline, mountains, or rain forest. On any given day, you may see and hear howler and white-face monkeys, coaties, tayras, agouties, sloths, toucans, aracaries, hummingbirds, parrots, and dozens of other bird species, all from the house decks.
Lattice House is a spectacular place, and I am happy to share it with our guests.

The master king bedroom, one queen bedroom and two full baths are on the main level; two bedrooms (one queen, two twins or one king) and a full bath are on the lower level. There are two sofas in the living room that can be used as additional beds.

Lattice House has all the amenities you expect in a luxury home and much more: partially covered total infinity pool with heated jacuzzi; four covered patios and decks; air conditioning in all the bedrooms; slate and marble floors and bathrooms; lattice work and hardwoods from Bali; outdoor master bath with copper soaking tub; lower floor walk-in outdoor shower; copper and stone sinks; fully equipped, stainless steel kitchen; beautiful furnishings, artwork and accessories.

Lattice House is a unique house in a very special property. We look forward to sharing our piece of paradise with you.

The villa is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 3 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a washing machine, and a sofa bed.

The property was absolutely beautiful! When we weren't exploring Costa Rica and going on excursions, we were hanging out in the pool watching the wildlife around us, grilling out, taking walks along the property and just loving our time at Lattice House! I can't recommend this property enough!

We loved this house. Absolutely beautiful! The grounds were meticulously maintained. We saw monkeys, Macaws, Toucans, javelinas, coatis, capybaras, and so many fabulous birds. The views are breathtaking. You feel like you are at your own private resort. Ana, the concierge is the best. She is so helpful and makes the stay so easy. I would recommend this home to anyone.

The Lattice house was amazing and the view is beautiful/hermosa! We loved being there and enjoying the two Macaws that came to visit us daily. It is a beautiful location- we love Dominical. Alturas wildlife refuge was so educational and wonderful to learn about the animals of CR-plus the fee to tour it goes directly to the care of the animals there. Rainmaker park in Quepos is also a great park for hiking with many suspended bridges. Angie and Allen did a great job making sure we were taken care of while there!

What an amazing home, or should I say estate! Staying here was like being invited into a private resort. Whatever you could want is there for you, the views are breathtaking, and the nature is everywhere. Just while relaxing at the pool, we saw scarlet macaws and all sorts of other birds, monkeys, and coatis in the trees, as well as huge lizards and great curassows scurrying through the grass. And we woke almost daily to the roar of howlers monkeys. The master bedroom opens onto a huge deck surrounded by trees, with a copper tub and outdoor shower. Gorgeous and well stocked kitchen too! Working with the owner Pat and property concierge Ana could literally not have been easier, more promp, or more delightful. Their area suggestions and the arrangements they made for us were perfect. We especially enjoyed the guide they chose for us for Manuel Antonio NP, how knowledgeable and skilled he was. I've posted a few of the images he snapped for us through his scope. (Two of the pictures are the scarlet macaw we saw at the property, and a sunset we experienced in Uvita, the others are by the Manuel Antonio guide.) Enjoy.

I can't say enough good things about Lattice house. It made for a relaxing and memorable stay. I don't need to describe it - you can see for yourself how beautiful it is. I'll just talk about things that are less obvious.For starters, the accuracy of the pictures and descriptions is excellent. In fact, everything is even better in person. That often isn't the case in rental situations. Also, the kitchen is probably the best stocked I've ever seen in terms of the availability and quality of cookware, utensils, leftover storage bins, pans, etc. It was so easy to cook meals.I slept in the main bedroom and the bed was so comfortable. I slept great every night.Communication with the owner, Patricia, and the concierge, Ana, were phenomenal and easy. They were great resources and very helpful at every stage.Everything is so thoughtfully done, from the extra binoculars to the beach equipment in the garage, to plenty of flashlights, to umbrellas. It was one of our best vacations.

Perfection!

This property was even better than expected! Our family of seven, ranging in age from 11 - 78 years old, used this as our home base to explore the area, from Manuel Antonio down to Uvita. We fished, walked the whale tail, hiked Nauyaca Falls, and explored beaches, and the Lattice House location was perfect! We also spent alot of time at the property, between exploring the orchard, watching wildlife that visited each day, and relaxing in the pool and hot tub area, with beautiful ocean views. The house is extremely well-stocked and the property manager, Ana, is quick to respond to any questions and provide recommendations for the area. I would 10/10 return to Lattice House!

A Once in a Lifetime Trip

As soon as we turned off the road and passed through the property gate I knew this was a special place. Winding through manicured grounds, orchards, and tropical plants, one gets the impression that something exceptional is about to happen. The house, though well appointed and fully functional, is just a backdrop to the fabulous property on a 65-acre private nature preserve. While the more adventuresome young folks hiked to the waterfall nothing was lost on those who just wanted to sit by the pool, enjoy the scenery, and watch the native birds, animals, and reptiles who had free range of the property. We took several wildlife tours but other than sloths and crocodiles didn’t see much that we weren’t able to experience at the house (and without the crowds)!The house manager, Ana, was fabulous and she and her staff were very responsive to minor issues. She recommended activities and made the arrangements, had a rental car delivered, and was constantly in touch. We had Chef Koko prepare several meals and he and they were great (get the passionfruit pie!).The property is located 10-15 minutes from two small towns, Dominical and Uvita. There are great restaurants close by, and the kids enjoyed taking surfing lessons. This is a once in a lifetime kind of experience-DO IT!

Heaven on earth

We stayed for 5 nights with three couples aged 33 to 79. The understated elegance and way of bringing outdoors indoors was truly breathtaking. The ease of getting to either Dominical or Uvita was so easy, the hard part was deciding where to enjoy a meal out with so many choices. We did utilize the private chef on our first night and would highly recommend. So nice to arrive and not have to figure out where to grab dinner or have to get groceries and cook. We had a rental car delivered, thanks to Ana, and the process was seamless. While we were there we participated in a mangrove boat tour, the atv tour, and zip lining. All were amazing and everyone throughly enjoyed. When we weren't out exploring we enjoyed just sitting by the pool and taking in the scenery. The bird watching from the master bedroom deck was superb! Would 100% stay again. Thanks for an amazing family vacation.

Peaceful, multi-generational stay

Our group of grandparents, siblings, spouses and kids had a wonderful time at Lattice House. It had the perfect multi-generational space to have alone time and together time. The master bedroom was like a treehouse, it felt right in nature. It was perfect for one of the members of the family, who is low vision, to enjoy being in nature and hearing animals from the safety of the house, without worry of tripping on a trail. We did so many activities and Ana helped every step of the way. We would highly recommend the horseback ride to the waterfall--unique and beautiful! The boat ride was also a fun adventure! Anytime we had a question or concern, Ana responded quickly. We enjoyed adding on the private chef services for two nights and it was so worth the money. Next time we would have the chef come a couple of times spread out over the trip so we could enjoy the leftovers throughout the week--Delicious! We are already dreaming of returning to this special place on earth. When you feel like dragging yourself out of beautiful Lattice House, we recommend Dominical for a cool town vibe and kind folks. We hope to return soon--Pura Vida!

Beautiful scenery and sounds of nature

The owner, Patirica was wonderful, she answered all our questions before and after booking. We had to make a change and she made it easy. Thank you, Pat! Ana became our go-to person and she was fabulous! She arranged our ground transportation from/to San Jose airport. One person was delayed and Ana was quick to make arrangements for them. They were scared riding alone, but Ana assured them they were in safe hands. She arranged for Alexandra’s crew to prepare our first meal, it was exactly what we needed. Ana arranged for our car rental, massages, tour activities, wrote up an itinerary and messaged us before each activity. Anything we needed Ana was just a message away! Thank you, Ana! The House is spectacular with plenty of space to yourself or to come together. The view was beautiful, whether relaxing in the pool or hot tub or on the deck, taking in the scenery and sounds of nature. Bring good binoculars and be prepared to share with animals and insects. Recommend ziplock bags for food. The outdoor showers were a favorite! The hike to the Waterfall is strenuous, walking sticks and good hiking shoes recommended. Use insect repellent (especially on the tours)! *READ THE HOUSE BOOK! Highly recommend the Jungle ATV Tour, Guillermo and Alejando were our tour guides, and they were great! And the Chocolate Tour with Ronald. His wife makes the absolute best smoothies! I had to write a shorter version of everything but we HIGHLY RECOMMEND staying at the Lattice House!

Nothing short of amazing

Lattice House provided the trip of a lifetime. It was an incredible house. The property was meticulously maintained, beautiful yard and pool and the view was out of this world. It was 2 minutes to Playa Hermosa and is by far the best beach. You can rent an umbrella and loungers at the beach and the kids took surf lessons or you can rent a board. Ana helped plan surf lessons, horseback riding on the beach, ATV tours and the private chef. The private chef was great. The meals were delicious and she left the leftovers in the fridge. Everything was seamless and Ana was prompt in any responses - she even scheduled a rental car to be dropped off at the property and booked us a car to and from the airport. She was fantastic. A true vacation of a lifetime. There is not one negative thing I could say about this stay. It is a must for a true stay in tropical paradise.
