Gorgeous property! Edgar treated us like family. Superb communications and well equipped home. You won’t be disappointed.

Absolutely unforgettable! The house is stunning—amazing architecture, amenities, indoor/outdoor living, pool and incredible sunsets. We had EASY beach access straight from the backyard walkway, despite another review saying otherwise. It felt like our own private miles-long beach! We saw turtles laying eggs beside the house, monkeys, macaws, stingrays surfing the waves, sand dollars and even a cheeky chip-stealing raccoon! The kids lived in the pool and ocean. Edgar is an exceptional host. He met us at the house, explained everything, gave great local tips, had forgotten essentials already stocked, and checked on us daily through Airbnb. The best host! His chef recommendation, Alberto, was phenomenal! He took our family/engagement photos, then prepared a 5-course dinner that all of us LOVED. His ability to use the sunset and natural light created some of the most stunning photos we’ve ever seen. This wasn’t just an Airbnb, it was an experience. We’ll stay here EVERY time! PURA VIDA

THIS WAS A FAMILY TRIP TO CELEBRATE OUR 50TH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY AND IT WAS MEMORABLE. GREAT HOUSE, GREAT POOL, BEAUTIFUL VISTAS, WALKABLE BEACH, UNBELIEVABLE SUNSETS AND CONVENIENT TO MANY ACTIVITIES AND SIGHTSEEING LOCATIONS. WE WERE APPREHENSIVE ABOUT GOING IN THE RAINY SEASON BUT ALTHOUGH THERE WERE SOME BRIEF SHOWERS NONE EVER INTERRUPTED ANY ACTIVITY AND I PERSONALLY DID NOT SEE ONE MOSQUITO...EVEN IN THE RAIN FOREST. WE HAVE STAYED IN MANY NICE AIRBnB'S BUT EDGAR'S PERSONAL ATTENTION AND RESPONSIVENESS AND OBVIOUS CONCERN FOR THE QUALITY OF OUR EXPERIENCE REALLY TOOK IT TO A LEVEL THAT WAS UNIQUE AND SPECIAL. AND I HAVE TO ADD THAT BEFORE WE WENT I TOOK THE ADVICE OF MANY PRIOR REVIEWERS AND SCHEDULED CHEF ALBERTO FOR A PRIVATE DINNER WHICH THE REVIEWERS PROMISED WE WOULD NOT REGRET. THEY WERE RIGHT!!!!! THANKS ONCE MORE EDGAR FOR YOUR GENEROSITY AS A HOST.

Here’s a more polished review that includes those details while keeping it warm and personal: Our stay at Edgar’s beachfront home was unforgettable. Edgar is an architect who designed and built the home himself, and you can tell immediately—it’s beautifully designed, thoughtfully laid out, and perfectly complements the surrounding landscape. If you’re looking to truly disconnect, this is the place. You’re off the grid for the most part, which made it incredibly peaceful. We spent every morning walking along the black sand beach with the Pacific Ocean just steps away. It was amazing to watch surfers catch waves and see macaws flying overhead—it felt like something out of a nature documentary. The pool was another highlight. Whether we were cooling off during the day or relaxing in the evening, it was the perfect place to unwind. What really made the stay exceptional was Edgar himself. He is one of the most thoughtful hosts we’ve ever had. He had anticipated every little thing a gues

Let’s start by saying this home is beautiful. It’s luxurious, clean, and the perfect layout for a beach getaway. The floor-to-ceiling glass windows make it impossible to miss the stunning views, allowing you to enjoy the waves, sunrises, and sunsets throughout the day. I also have to be honest—our first night came with a significant security hiccup. However, the situation was handled with urgency, care, and support by Edgar and his community. Before, during, and after our stay, Edgar was professional, attentive, and responsive. He checked on our travels to Costa Rica, shared resources, and made sure we had everything we needed. You can truly tell Edgar loves what he does and wants every guest to experience top-tier hospitality. Chef Alberto prepared lunch and dinner for my friend and me, along with breakfast, and everything was absolutely delicious. The sound of the waves was calming, the views were breathtaking, and we left grateful for the experience. Pura Vida🫶🏾☀️

Edgar was, without a doubt, the best host I’ve ever experienced. He personally greeted us upon arrival, gave us a full tour of the property, and shared helpful insights about Costa Rica . His home is stunning and we absolutely loved the indoor-outdoor living. We used the pool every day and truly the beach. The beds were comfortable, and the thoughtful bathroom amenities were a wonderful touch. He checked in multiple times to make sure everything was going smoothly and was always quick to respond to any questions. We enjoyed every single moment. Thank you, Edgar

One of my best Airbnb experiences. Edgar is definitely a host who makes you feel at home from the very first minute. My family was delighted with his hospitality and all the amenities he provided us. The house is in excellent condition and in a prime location just a few meters from the sea. It is exactly as seen in the photos; the pool area is a dream, and you can watch the sunset without having to move. I definitely plan to come back!

Edger was, by far, the best host I've ever dealt with. He met us when we arrived and gave us a tour of the place and a great synopsis of what to expect in Costa Rica, which made planning our stay easy. His home is absolutely gorgeous and very clean, and we loved the indoor/outdoor living. We used the pool every day and really enjoyed our walks on the beach. The beds were very comfortable and we appreciated the bathroom amenities he left for us. Midweek he checked in to make sure everything was going well and always responded quickly to questions we had. The personal chef he recommended for a special dinner was fantastic. We felt very safe and loved every minute of it. Thank you Edger, you're the best.

This place was amazing! The view of the beach, water and mountains....it soothes the soul. The sunsets take your breath away. Edgar is an incredible host. He is very responsive. He is also thoughtful. I mentioned I was celebrating my birthday and he arrived to greet us with a birthday cake. It's the little things like that, that mean a lot to me. Edgar also had assorted toiletries available in case we forgot to pack something. Again, it's the little things like this... I highly recommend this property if you want to relax and enjoy the beauty of Costa Rica. Edgar made the experience even more enjoyable by making recommendations for activities, etc. I highly recommend bringing Chef Alberto in for a night. His food was AMAZING! I can't say enough good things about our experience. You won't be disappointed.
