Vista Bahia Vacation Rental

Everything was as the pictures of their webpage. Plus the property has a private beach so you can enjoy a nice walk down there. 
Views are amazing also.

Restaurant and pool are well maintained. Just for a relaxing splash at the end of the day.
100% recommended

Everyone we talked to was extremely friendly and helpful.There was supposed to be WiFi but it only worked in the lobby.

The freedom to walk around in  clean practically private beaches. Natural surroundings with plenty of birds and animals. Spacious rooms, great cooking facilities, excellent internet service. Close to Liberia and other attractions.Very friendly staff.We will stay there again. Great to bring the grand kids. Lots of tide polls and very calm ocean to swim

Everything was wonderful! We had a great time.  The property is very nice

We really enjoyed the private beach, huge space of the room, beautiful grounds and the peace and relaxation that this place offers.  There is incredible value for the price.

Beautiful property! Woke up to see a monkey in a tree from our patio. The beach is a short walk downhill. Took a boat tour to snorkel. Staff very helpful! Would stay again!

Vista Bahia Beech resort was just what we were looking for in a relaxing place to spend our vacation.Panama Beach is in a quiet area. No big touristy commotion like is found in some of the larger resort areas yet for visitors looking for the shopping restaurants and attractions it is a short drive away. I was extremely happy to be able to see the Howler monkeys right out side my balcony! Also, many colorful birds which were fun to watch and photograph.The only thing negative I would say is that it needs sprucing up but they were already working on that so I see this as a temporary situation.. Added note: Our trip was delayed because of a terrible snowstorm so we had to arrive 2 days late. They did not charge us for the days we were not there which we found to be very generous since this is not a large international resort.. I would be glad to have a chance to return to the Vista Bahia Beach Resort.

My wife and I stayed for 3 nights and really enjoyed our stay. We spent quite a bit a time on the beach and hiking around the property.  Playa Panama is very nice.  The staff was very accommodating.  The room was very spacious with a full size refrigerator and microwave.  The bed could use a sifter mattress though. Overall it was a very pleasant stay.

The property is a good value for the money.  They are obviously working on bringing up the maintenance, security, and general condition of the property, but their brand new management is dedicated and hospitable.  If you are not too picky, you can have a good stay right next to 2 beautiful beaches (with a kitchen) at a great value!

We spent 13 days here in January/February 2020 (in unit 29) and had a wonderful time.  We saw howler monkeys and magpie jays in the tree right in front of our balcony.   And lots of iguanas around. Beautiful view of the sea from our balcony and the beach is just stunning if one loves nature.
The unit is very spacious and the kitchen area sufficient for what we needed. As others have mentioned, the buildings and grounds are all in need of renovation and maintenance (maybe even just a good scrub of the walls) but this did not take away from our experience.
We walked and snorkeled a lot.  After paying USD 200 for a snorkeling trip with one of the operators in the area, we spent many hours snorkeling on our own from the rocks on the beach (Panama, La Playita, Bonita, Buena) without having to pay. It was fantastic and we saw much more than what we had seen on the paid trip!
The restaurant at the Vista Bahia was not open while we were there. We regularly bought groceries in Playa Hermosa (walked there and back) and twice took a cab to Playas del Coco.  We twice had meals at the campground and a few times bought food from vendors on the beach, most notably, red snapper from Edgar!  Quite an experience.
This location is isolated which is what we wanted.  We were unlucky to have noisy neighbours for the first two nights but after that it was quiet.  
Ideally, you should be self-sufficient, able to speak Spanish to communicate with staff and have a rental car, if you are not comfortable walking a lot and staying close by.  Don't expect much service but our unit was cleaned regularly and the wifi was perfect.
If we should visit this part of Costa Rica again, we would definitely stay at Vista Bahia.

Excellent value for money

This is a property that is beginning to erode a bit, and there's no sign they're going to fix it up. The road in and around the villas are basically in horrible condition, and you can see signs of neglect in any direction. All that being said, if you don't mind sharing your villa with a few ants and the odd other occasional random bug, it's still quite nice and spacious with air conditioning too. The price for what you get is actually generous, and the most important thing is if you have a concern and ask for it to be addressed? They action it quickly. The workers are as phenomenal as the owner is neglectful (the lone exception was the maids. they did the bare minimum and did a lousy job, particularly on the bathroom/shower). I'd stay there again in a heartbeat. Short walk to the beach, really nice pool area. Appears to have a Restaurant, but wasn't open as we got there just before high season. Owners: this place needs a lot of TLC. Step up!!

Nice Stay; 1st rate service

Very nice starting off point. About thirty minutes at most form the liberia airport. Very nice staff they serve food till 9pm on Friday through Sunday.  Monday through Thursday its 7am to 4pm after 4 just hamburgers.. about $20 US dollars for 4 to eat breakfast. They just reopened this spot 2 years ago.  They are condo type rooms open and expansive with a nice kitchenette; they are updating as the go.... For the price you cant beat this place. You have access to the beach and all. We used it for a jumping off point. Booked three days so we could look at the other available places to stay. The high end hotels eat up all of the bandwidth. You have to search 4 pages in to find other good places like this. Overall we were happy with our stay. Great people. 

Very nice jumping off spot

The staff were really friendly and helpfull. The bigger guy with all the tatoos was very kind and helped with everything and spoke really well english. Rooms were a bit out dated but still pretty nice. Lots of stuff to see near by. Playa del coco was very close and a great place to see. Over all a great first experience in Costa Rica

Quiet but near many other attractions and beaches

Nice accommodations and friendly staff

The resort was ok, nice atmosphere but luckily we went to chill & relax & not for the beach because was not a desirable beach & you have to walk through the woods to get down there. The other thing is the walk up the hill to the rooms, their cart couldn't carry my husband and I so we had to walk in the dark cause the majority of the lights were out. More bugs in the room than outside. Loved Hillary the bartender she was the best & she's only been there a month!

Ok resort...close to beach but not a good beach...

this place is the best oasis in the panama to coco beach area. very quiet,great views, a practicaly private beach,good food ,great staff. they helped us with a lot of small and large issues,info,massuesse etc..,shopping and dining tips,driving, snorkling and local tips about everything.great prices..this place is the best sanctuary in this area..terry and bj owe this staff a lot of heartful thanks..,will stay again
