Property Reviews

The setting is beautiful and the house is both elegant and clean.

Nato and Lulu, the caretakers, could not have been more accomodating and helpful. They were there when we needed them, and not hanging around when we wanted to be alone. Nato's cooking was phenomenal, and the house itself is beautiful. Finally, our Essv concierge Victor could not have been more helpful. Great job all around by the gran vista staff to make our stay a huge success.

The villa was perfect. The house had every possible amenity you could ask for from the spectacular view, the gorgeous pool/spa, fire pit, large screen TV, sound system, gourmet kitchen, etc. The villa itself was immaculate, the beds were comfortable, and the layout of the villa was perfect for a group of adults. The trip would not have been complete without Fortunado and his wife Lulu. They saw to our every need and met every request with a smile. I'm still dreaming of the wonderful meals. I cannot wait to return.

Fortuando and his wife really know how to make sure your every needs are met. The view and the amenities worth top rate and will visit the villa again in the future.

The house has everything you'll need and more. The thing that made the house spectacular was Fortunato and Lulu the caretakers. Fortunato shopped and cooked for us, and the meals were outstanding. There's nothing better than awakening to a beautifully prepared breakfast sitting on the table with an ocean view. We just gave Fortunato money to shop with and our meal preferences and he did the rest with culinary expertise! At the end we wanted to stay longer and we tipped/paid Fortunato for his extra work. He helped with every aspect of the house form stocking the fridge with our beverages to making margaritas. I would go back again soon. The home is beautiful and decorated impressively. No need for a rental car in my opinion. The concierge service was avalable 24/7 to set up spa treatments, fishing ect. Ican't say enough good things about our stay it was amazing!

The home is spacious, beautifully appointed and impecably maintained. There were 4 couples in our party, so three of the seven bedrooms went unused. This made it very difficult for each couple to decide which room they wanted, as they were all so beautiful and grand. The amazing views of the Pacific from all areas of the home were glorious. Everyone in our group took advantage of watching the sun rise and set nearly every day. The staff in the home (Fortunado and his wife Lulu) were the highlight of the stay. They were so friendly, so accommodating and so gracious...we all fell in love with them! It's location in the "Pedegral" area was convenient and close to the marinas, shopping and restaurants. Overall, we,(and the 3 other couples we were travleling with) could not have imagined better accomodations!

Caretakers Nato & Lucy spoiled us with excellent service. They even prepared exquisite meals for us at the villa of fresh fish & shrimp with homemade Guacamole. The home was beautiful with each couple having their own master suite with a private balcony overlooking the ocean. Every amenity & more was provided for us there. We also felt very secure & safe in this gated community. Great area for long walks too. Definitely pricey, but worth it.
