Palm Beach Estates 150' to Beach. Best Location!

ErinRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Great amenities. Dirk was extremely responsive and gave great recommendations on things to do and places to eat. The beach is directly across the street. There are several restaurants within walking distance and a market to grab last minute/forgotten items. Don't miss Cafe Mar Azul, the food is fantastic and inexpensive. There's a surf shack next door where you can rent surf boards and book excursions. Very safe area. The house was very roomy, clean, and comfortable. We'd book this location again if we vacation in Costa Rica again in a heartbeat.

Breathtaking Flat Seconds from the Beach

TomRating, 5 stars2 days ago
The logistics were handled by a company called Tropical Homes and I worked with a gentleman named Tony who was extremely helpful for my family of four and a great communicator. This is condo/flat is centrally located in the development and is perfect for 3-4 people. Would definitely stay here again!

OCEAN FRONT VIEW APARTMENT, GATED COMMUNITY.

AlexandraRating, 5 stars10 months ago
Ilya was super friendly and helpful. He met us at the gate for check-in and showed us around the unit and property. Everything was clean and easy to access. There are multiple restaurants within walking distance and a couple min drive into downtown you can find a ton more. The beach is also within walking distance. It’s a calm beach with black sand. Not a lot around there but we had fun with our kids. This place is peaceful and relaxing and has great views of the ocean. Would recommend!

15Lovebnb 2Bdr Apt in a Tennis & Pickleball club

RamaRating, 5 stars12 months ago
The bed and breakfast inn was close to action but pleasant enough. Did hear a Friday night party from the Main Street which went with the vibe of the town. Beach was literally 3-5 minutes walk. Lots of restaurants. The hosts were very kind, had breakfast at the inn. Cooked to order eggs, fresh melon smoothie, toasts and coffee yum. The place was very clean, looked better than the pictures. Balcony was a sweet spot and only regret was we didn’t pack our tennis shoes. They had a lovely tennis clinic and pickleball lessons that we watched. Overall, two thumbs up. Loved our stay. Pura Vida

The Toucan House: 2 Bedrooms with Communal Pool

KaylaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Great little bungalow in a gated community with a pool right outside your front porch. Felt very safe. It is a little bit of a walk to get to the beach/restaurants, there is the best bakery and Italian restaurant right around the corner though! There are no sidewalks to get to downtown Potrero so I would recommend finding an uber or having a car/golf cart. The security guards at the gate are very friendly and helpful. Lots of lizards, iguanas, squirrels, and cats that roam through the neighborhood, quite entertaining!

Playa Del Cielo

WilbertoRating, 5 stars1 day ago
First, I want to thank Joe for the recommendations around the area. His place is an amazing place to re-energize as the ocean view is out of a postcard. Second, Joe's place is clean and has everything you need to cook a great dinner. Cold ac it's great if it gets humid/hot but not needed as the ocean breeze caress you and keeps you cool and comfortable. Lastly, thank you Joe for being an amazing host.

La Casita by Lina

RhondaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
This is our fourth trip to La Casita by Lina!! we fell in love the very first time and have no reason to be anywhere else. It’s quiet, steps away from an amazing beach, and we enjoy the beautiful sunsets. There are two fabulous restaurants within a one to two minute walk. They have happy hour and great music (which is always done before 10 PM). You can take boat trips, snorkel, and rent jet skis through nearby businesses. Karol does housekeeping several times during the week and upon request did a small load of laundry for us. We do rent a car so it’s a quick trip into Coco Beach for anything and everything we could imagine including a gym. Lina is very accommodating and we can always do luggage drop off if it’s earlier than the 3 PM check-in. The space is absolutely perfect for us to completely unplug from work and our usual day-to-day busyness!!!! we are already looking at next year’s calendar. Thank you again, Lina, for another wonderful stay.

Private indoor pool and cosy beach house

Corey.JRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Me and my 3 adult children in there 20’s stayed here and it was everything that the pictures show and better ! Outdoor living at its finest and we can’t wait to come back and stay here again! Air conditioning in each bedroom that gets very cold ! LOVED the pool ! Very clean for being outdoor living and I am very particular , but your in Costa Rica don’t go nit picking every nook and cranny you rented an Airbnb with outside living and it’s VERY CLEAN ! Upon arrival was left a bottle of wine , coffee and a pineapple:) Our host was very responsive and checked in regularly to make sure we didn’t need anything or if we needed any suggestions . You’re far enough away from town that we did not hear anything contrary to what some of the previous reviews said . This is a MUST STAY ! We loved it and were so sad to leave . We were here for 5 days and I do suggest renting a golf cart for your stay , soooo much fun and so much easier to get around it really made the trip ! Great Costa Rica Vibe

Beach front property - Rustic Cabin

JoheniaRating, 5 stars3 days ago
We enjoyed our stay very much. It's a beautiful location and walking out the gate you're on the beach. The house was very clean and seemed very well maintained. We enjoyed watching the monkeys overhead but decided it's best to stay under the deck roof to avoid the mangos they were occasionally dropping. We're very glad we stayed here and hope to return again in the future.

Chris is such a responsive, gracious host. His communication is top-notch—he even sent videos with directions of how to arrive and get into the place. The place was so well appointed and comfortable. He sincerely wanted us to have a good Costa Rican experience. We’d return in a heartbeat!

2BR with pool, steps from the beach

DanielleRating, 5 stars4 days ago
We have stayed in many Air BnBs and this one takes the prize. We just returned from 5 days from Gil and Bernie's beautiful and comfortable home. A perfect spot for our family of 4 - including 2 boys who loved the pool just steps from the front door. Loved the little condo village it is in with the pathway and lush plants too. A perfect location - very walk able to the beach, groceries, bars and restaurants. As hosts, they have thought of everything to ensure you have a memorable time - beach stuff (cooler, chairs, boogie board, frisbees, etc..) and a kitchen stocked with what you need. Super responsive to our questions including getting our laundry done overnight after arriving from a week on the road. And loved meeting Bernie in real life! A great place, with great hosts, in a great country. We cannot wait to return!

SEE MONKEYS Private Pool - just steps to beach!

RogerRating, 5 stars1 month ago
The house was as advertised. The pool was spotless, and the landscaping was beautiful. Despite the suggestion to turn off the AC when leaving the house, which left us concerned about being comfortable while sleeping, the AC worked great, and we slept fantastically. Although we did not cook a lot, we never failed to find the utensils and pans etc. that we needed. All in all, it was a well-appointed house with towels, beach chairs everything we needed. And the wildlife showed up right on cue, we saw howler monkies, equanas, geckos, butterflies, and birds (even saw a parrott). Unfortunately we did not see the ten foot iguana that Willy bragged about, but several in the group were fine with that ;). Finally, Willy was a fantastic concierge/helper. Gave us great advice and is a pleasure to talk too. Only downside was the restaurant food in town was very pricy. Really had to follow Willies advice and go to the local mom and pop haunts for better food and better pricing.

Villa Los Encinos

Collin HendrikusRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Jorge’s Villa Los Encinos is a great place to stay, offering a peaceful location near Parque Nacional Rincón de la Vieja and Liberia, away from crowds. It’s a great alternative to expensive mountain hotels, with a relaxing atmosphere surrounded by nature. Jorge, the host, is very hospitable and quick to address any issues, such as fixing a broken shower hose or light bulb. The villa has some minor shortcomings, such as missing blackout curtains and a lack of a dedicated workroom, but for the price, it’s a great value. The pool area is shared, not private as listed, and there may be construction noise nearby, though Jorge handled it promptly. Noise from animals, like barking dogs and roosters, is typical in Costa Rica. The kitchen lacks a table and chairs, but this can be worked around. Some cleanliness issues and outdated photos in the listing should be noted. Overall, the villa offers a wonderful, tranquil experience with a welcoming host.

New Prices! Bamboo #1 Modern, Pool, Fun

JohnRating, 5 stars5 days ago
We enjoyed our time at the Bamboo Gardens quite a bit. The neighborhood is quiet but close to shops and restaurants. The pool and surrounding area was pristine and that is very important to us. The unit faces the street and was very well equipped and clean.
