Iris

Casa Bonita is indeed a beautiful place. So close to the beach and in a special community with restaurants, a shop, surf schools and local wildlife. The house's proximity to the beach made morning walks easy. The pool was a great occasional break from the sand. Thank you!

Beautiful, well maintained property close to the beach. We love that Palm Beach Estates in Plata Grande is separated from Tamarindo, making the neighborhood and the beach have much fewer people. The surfing and boogie boarding were amazing.

We LOVED our stay! The private path to the beach was incredible- a 2 minute walk to one of the most beautiful beaches we've visited. The sunsets were stunning. The house was perfect for our needs. Very clean and cozy. Our kids had the best time surfing and checking out all the local wildlife. The restaurant across the street was delish and super convenient! There was a bit of construction next door, but nothing too loud, and it didn't impact our stay.

Beautiful home. Clean. Great location. Highly recommend!

The location of the house was perfect! The beach was a short walk through the trees and very private. The beach was of course spectacular! Several small cafes on the street. It has it all.

This place is amazing and looked just like the photos when we arrived. The location is fantastic and there is a short, beautiful pathway to the beach. We will be back.

Great location, Iris the owner was very responsive and her property manager Manfred was very responsive and attentive. Great Stay

Our multi-generational family group of 12 had a wonderful stay (6 adults, 6 kids). The backyard pool was a highlight (loved the shaded afternoon), and the proximity to a gorgeous beach was awesome. Proximity to a great surf shop and cafe were welcome, but not too much else was walkable (not that you need more than pool and beach!). The one thing this stay was lacking was laundry and housekeeping. With a large group for 5 nights (and 6 busy kids), it would have been nice to have fresh towels, sheets and a cleaning at some point.

This house is situated on a fantastic, uncrowded beach. It stretches on for long beach walks, the sand is soft, the waves are perfect for boogie boarding, and the water temperature is warm. Each day of our stay we boogied boarded for hours with maybe 15 other people in sight. In the evening there are beautiful sunsets. The outdoor space of the house is great for cooling off in the small pool or relaxing in the hammock. The house is located in a gated community inhabited by tourists, so in order to experience authentic Costa Rican restaurants or culture one must drive to a neighboring town about 15 minutes away. The house itself is as described but be aware no amenities (shampoo) are provided with the exception of small soap discs. The beach itself made our stay wonderful.

Truly special home situated in a great location just steps from one of the best beaches we've ever visited. Great place for families. Kids loved the pool.

We love, love, love Casa Bonita. Great for families. Something for everyone. Walk to beach, cool off in pool. Private paradise.

Our stay at Casa Pipa was everything and more my son, daughter in law, two young adult grandchildren and I were looking for as the way to wind down our 2 week action filled family vacation in paradise! House, yard, neighborhood, and beach were serene and peaceful, people were friendly and welcoming. The restaurant across the street has delicious food. Although reservations are needed because of its popularity. Two family members took surfing lessons from the experts across the street and thought they were excellent teachers! Our host, Manfred was accessible, helpful, and is a terrific baker! he most popular item in the place was the super comfy pool floatie. Well, that and the beach chairs! All around wonderful experience. We all loved it!

We had a wonderful stay at Casa Pipa! The home was exactly as advertised. Iris was so easy to work with; helped with dinner reservations. Excellent guide/resource book emailed prior to arrival. Manfred the local house manager was so nice to work with, orient us to the home, and make us feel welcome immediately. We enjoyed Manfred's homemade pastries; so delicious! The home is very clean and comfortable. We found the beds and pillows very comfortable. So private and the private beach access was just magical! Was so nice to go through the gate, walk a beautiful little forest path, to find the amazing beach and Pacific ocean!!! Any questions; answered immediately. Just a total chill place for ultimate relaxation while being able to walk the neighborhood and enjoy the lovely small restaurants and market. We didn't rent a car and didn't feel the need for one. Our driver brought us to the supermarket before our arrival so we had everything we needed; the home, pool, beach!! Thank you!!!
