Have a SAFE vacation ____________________________________________________________________________ The DuPont Registry of Fine Homes describes Puertocito Point as, 'Undoubtedly one of Costa Rica's premier properties with an over the water feel unavailable virtually anywhere else in this beautiful and diverse country.'
Puertocito Point can be privately reserved as a 2 to 4 suite vacation rental with occupancy up to 10.
Perched on a bluff overlooking the Pacific, you will find the Main Villa with unobstructed 180 degree panoramic ocean views. The Villa has two King Suites and a private sun deck and pool. A stones throw away you will find two suites in the Guest Cottage with private ocean view decks and full baths.
This private Estate is set on 12 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds, surrounded by lush rain forest and mountains. The property is bounded on all sides by protected nature reserves with abundant wildlife.
Featuring friendly and experienced local management, the Point is a special destination, one you won't forget.
More About the Property: Puertocito Point is built as close to the Pacific Ocean as allowed under Costa Rica's strict environmental laws: 50 meters from the high tide mark. From the Main Villa atop a cliff, you will find jaw-dropping unobstructed 180 degree Pacific Ocean views. The Villa's twelve acres are sandwiched between protected green zones to the north and south with a dramatic backdrop of first ridge mountains and a combination of primary and secondary rain forest. It's a unique setting that delivers the scenic beauty and wildlife you expect from Costa Rica. Geographically, we are located in Costa Rica's more tropical and much less developed Southern Zone, making this an ideal place to experience the country's natural splendor. Despite its privacy and tranquility, Puertocito Point is just a minute from the Coastal Highway and a few minutes drive from the towns of Dominical and Uvita with a variety of amenities, including restaurants, shops, groceries, banks, etc.
For swimming and boogie boarding or surfing we recommend a two minute drive to Puerto Nuevo, a virtually private beach. Two boogie boards are on the house!
The Main Villa is comprised of a Master Suite with a California King bed and a Junior Suite with a king bed, each with its own full bath. There is also a half bath off the Great Room. Bedrooms are air conditioned, common areas are not but have large ceiling fans.
The master suite also features a Tower Room up the stairs from the bedroom with great views of the pool and ocean below. A great place to do yoga, meditate, or just enjoy the view.
With a brand new (August 2014) NetSys dedicated high-speed internet service, our fast WiFi is great for those who need to stay connected to family, friends, and/or businesses during their stay. Those with GSM phones will also enjoy strong cell phone reception, including 3G data access for browsing and email.
The Point's abundant wildlife gives guests the real experience of being in a tropical rain forest without trekking all the way to Manuel Antonio. Birders and nature photographers will not be disappointed by the property's incredible biodiversity.
The property overall has benefited tremendously from a continuous capital improvement program started in 2010 and continuing through 2014 with $50,000 of renovations to the property in the past two years. The program has completed numerous upgrades to the villas, including new roof, new windows, new pool and sun decks, new electrical lines, new water lines, fresh paint, new lighting fixtures, new master shower, upgraded Internet service, new TV, and much more.
Guest Cottage: In The Guest Cottage there is an upper King Suite and a lower Queen Suite, both with a full private tiled bath and a private furnished deck with yet another lovely ocean view. All this less than a stones throw from the Main Villa. Bedrooms are air conditioned.
Puertocito Point is very close to a variety of restaurants, grocery stores, shopping, banking and any other services you may need. There is a doctor, a pharmacist and dentist located right in Dominical, all speak English.
Your local property managers are available during your stay to offer advice on various local activities and address any service needs at the property.
Your stay at Puertocito Point will be a once in a lifetime experience, unless, of course, you return next year!

Beautiful spot. Lots to do: horseback riding, zip lining, surfing, swimming. Kitchen could use some updating...we could never figure out how to use the oven...but the hotel next door has fabulous food. Central part of house has no ac and the afternoons are very hot. The grandparents retreated to the beautiful air-conditioned casita for a nap during those hours.The living area could use better fans. We would happily return.
We so enjoyed our stay. Indra was most helpful with booking, directions, and scheduling extra activities for us. The location was just behind the Cuna de Angel hotel with a great view over the ocean with the ability to see the sunrise and sunset over the ocean every day!
It was so nice to have maid service twice the week we were there..
The house was everything we expected and more. The views are amazing and every morning we had lots of furry visitors which was exactly what we were hoping for.
This was our second stay at Puertocito Point. The house is beautiful and comfortable. The pool is delightful and private. The view is amazing and there is lots of wildlife to entertain! Our concierge, Indra, was extremely responsive and helped us navigate our COVID tests! Wonderful place to stay!
Took my niece and nephews for a few days. House is a little older and so things are not "perfect" however the house is GREAT and Gary was awesome to work with. Highly recommend this house.
Absolutely loved this place! The views are absolutely breathtaking (pictures donât do justice). Great proximity to waterfalls, beaches and wonderful food in Dominical. Our host, Gary, was quick to respond. Canât imagine a better experience - it was truly a slice of heaven!
We had a great vacation at Casa Puertocito. This house is amazing with beautiful views and very comfortable. A nice place to "come home" to after a day out and about exploring the richness of the area. We were a group of 8 (2 adults & 2 kids) x2 and there was tons of space for us to be together and do our own thing without getting in each other's way. The main house was perfect for all of use to hangout in during the day and at night, one family slept in the main space and the other family used the "casita" which was about a 1 minute walk away. Casita had it's own spectacular view so no one missed waking up to the stunning landscapes and ocean views. We had one minor issue with the water one night but our host Gary got immediately on it and had someone drive out to the house within minutes of us reporting it so essentially it was a non-issue. Gary was super friendly and accommodating. Our housekeeper Gaby was so nice as well, just a pleasure to meet her and added that sense of being in a hotel.
All in all, Costa Rica is a marvelous place and we will definitely be returning. I can recommend this house 110% to make the experience just so much better.
The house is what it appears to be...a heaven. The host, Gary, is awesome. Answers questions, gives directions..
Yes, I will be coming back for a piece of heaven. Thank you so much.

Great location...awesome house
We stayed at Puertocito Point with 3 adults and 3 kids, aged 5, 7 and 9. Halfway between Dominical and Uvita was a great location for exploring both of those areas. Surfing in Dominical on one day and exploring the beaches and waterfalls of Uvita the next. The house and casita had more than enough room for the six of us. We spent a lot of time at the pool in the afternoons, watching the birds and listening to the ocean down below. We had an iguana and a coatimundi visit us by the pool. Gary arranged a private chef for us one night. The food was great and it was great not having the leave the house or cook, serve and clean up dinner. The house was clean and everything was in perfect working order. Canât wait to go back!
Our family took our first trip to beautiful Costa Rica. Puertocito Point grounds were beautifully manicured. The views were breathtaking and wildlife outside the door made our trip a memorable experience. The pool was fantastic and overlooked the ocean. The house is close to Uvita, Dominical, and Manuel Antonio National Park, and Quepos. The managers were attentive to our needs and went above and beyond. We hired a chef for two meals two different days we were there and literally had some of the best meals we have ever had. Our host helped set up excursions for us. This was helpful, however cost us an extra 20% had we booked it ourselves. Our only draw back was there is a gap under the glass doors across the front of the house which allowed lots of geckos and insects. The geckos did not bother us but contending with cleaning up excrement made us weary. There is air condition in the bedrooms but not the main living space. There are two bedrooms in two different houses. This was not a problem for us because our sons are grown men but for those with younger children it is something to consider. Overall a good stay. The upside to this rental is definitely the outside components.
We recently stayed here for a quick family holiday, it was a short stay of 4 nights but we enjoy every minute of it... the house is great, the area is super nice but the view and breathtaking and brings so much peace to you that is just something you can experience by being there... the host Alejandro was very helpful with everything and was always available...
There were only two safety things we advised to Alejandro since we had a couple of accidents, so hopefully they can make the enhancement to the property and make it safe for everyone.
A mi familia y a mĂ, nos encantĂł esta propiedad. La vista es realmente increĂble, y la casa se encuentra en buenas condiciones. El personal a cargo fueron muy atentos y amables con todas nuestras consultas.
A group of 10 of us stayed here, and had an awesome time. Kim was super helpful and courteous, the views were unreal, and the overall experience was awesome. There are mango trees that you can pick some fresh mangos from, and you are pretty much in the jungle, so wildlife sightings were common (note that does include some large insects). We went for Memorial day, so the start of the rainy season, but most days were sunny up until about 3:00 pm. They don't observe daylight savings in Costa Rica, so the sun is high in the sky pretty early, which is great. Overall, awesome experience.
We loved our stay at this beautiful home. We described it to our friends as a "rustic castle." A few updates were needed, but the new property manager is on top of them. Very private and secluded and we felt surrounded by nature and ocean. The view absolutely cannot be beat. Very open concept and the additional guesthouse gave our teenagers the privacy and space that was a real bonus. We hope to be lucky enough to get back to Costa Rica again, and, if so, this is definitely where we will stay!
