The Vacation MVP We Can’t Live Without!
Lu Dawson is the property manager you didn’t know you needed but absolutely can’t live without. This is our second year staying at this amazing property; Villa Buen Trueno in Costa Rica.
Need a question answered? Lu’s on it faster than you can say “Pura Vida.” Something needs fixing? She’s got it handled before you even realize there’s an issue. Not to mention, she’s so friendly and welcoming that you might just want to invite her to dinner—if she weren’t so busy making sure everything is perfect for your stay.
Her attention to detail is next-level, and she makes you feel like you’re her only guest, even though we’re pretty sure she’s juggling a million things at once. Thanks to her, our vacation was smooth sailing and everything we hoped it would be and more!
We’re already counting down to next year’s stay—because with Lu in charge, it’s not just a vacation; it’s an experience. If she’s managing your rental, congrats, you’ve hit the jackpot!

Nice and Relaxing
This House is must! We stayed here for 3 weeks and enjoyed every minute of it. Lu and Donald were great in getting us anything and everything we asked for. The house is fully equipped, nicely furnished and very comfortable. The pool is nice on those very hot days. The view is stunning and the house is very private. We loved that we had a gate at the entrance of the driveway and always felt safe. We were close to all of the conveniences in Ojochal. Great restaurants, small sodas, and the walks were amazing and filled with wild life. People here are so nice and genuine. We would so do this again, highly recommended!

Great Location
Probably one of the BEST vacations our group has been on in our last 6 years travelling together. It was a very long travel day for everyone involved. Our group was happy and excited about the house when we checked in. The flowers, fruit, wine, and welcome we received from Lu and Donald made the long day seem to melt away. The house is amazing! Lots of room, great outdoor sitting, wonderful breezes and the pool and the views are stunning. The book at the house with all of the information about everything you could imagine was our nightly read to make plans for the next day. Lu made several of our excursion reservations and even met us one of the days because we got lost. We visited many of the beaches and ate fresh seafood and vegetables daily. Don't miss the Corcavado National Park excursion, you will LOVE IT. I’ll do it again without a doubt.
