A starting nightly rate helps frame a search. It is not a confirmed price for selected dates, and it does not by itself establish the total stay cost.
Use the rate to organize the shortlist
The Luxe Retreats collection uses a starting nightly rate of at least $1,200 USD. That threshold describes catalog inclusion, not the final quote. Seasonal pricing, minimum stays, and the selected dates can affect which homes fit your plans.
Ask for a comparable written quote
Use the same dates and guest details for each request. Ask for taxes, mandatory fees, deposits, and optional services to be identified clearly. Compare the full proposal rather than mixing one villa’s accommodation price with another’s inclusive estimate.
Keep availability separate
A displayed property or selected date does not create an availability hold. Ask what has been confirmed and what remains subject to approval. Make travel commitments with the actual booking terms in view.
Three answers to get in writing
Use these questions when comparing actual properties. Record the answer for each shortlisted villa; an unanswered item remains a question, not an included feature.
- What is the complete price for your exact dates and occupancy?
- Which taxes, mandatory fees, and deposits sit outside the nightly rate?
- Are optional services priced separately in the same currency?
Attach the relevant villa reference to each question in your stay inquiry. Keep the resulting answers with the written proposal so everyone in your group is planning from the same information.
Turn the idea into a useful shortlist
Start with the Costa Rica villa collection and save the homes that fit your group. Use the questions above when comparing their details, rather than assuming the same arrangements apply to every property. If a feature is essential, ask for a specific written answer before making your decision.
The VIC concierge experience can help frame your requests. Send your dates, guest configuration, and priorities through your stay brief; the team can then discuss suitable options. A submitted inquiry does not confirm availability or create a reservation.
A question before you go
Does a search result reserve the villa?
No. Browsing and sending an inquiry do not reserve a home or confirm availability. The team must confirm the next steps.
