Ilse

Our extended family of 12, from 9-80 yrs old, stayed here for a week over the summer. We had a great time. Absolutely stunning location and accommodation, arguably better than the photos. Short walk to a beautiful beach with lovely beach restaurant attached. Ilse was really helpful and checking in and out was all really easy. The cleaning staff were really friendly and the place was immaculate. I guess as a group we could have done with less cleaning, sometimes you just want to relax, but that is a very minor complaint. All in all a very happy experience here.

Villa Alicia was a gorgeous stay for our family vacation! We had 6 adults and 3 children (1.5-7 years old) and had plenty of space and privacy for everyone, as well as good gathering space. It is a relatively easy walk to the beach, and super quick drive if you have older people or little ones in tow. The view is spectacular and staff keep everything spotless. We did tip daily for housekeeping since she did such an amazing job! Isle was also so helpful anytime we reached out for requests or suggestions. She helped us find a wonderful local photographer for family photos and organize a sailing trip. Highly recommend!

We had an amazing stay at Casa Linda while celebrating my husband‘s birthday with our family. The location was stunning with peaceful surroundings and lovely views that made every morning and evening feel extra special. In addition to the beautiful accommodations, Isle, our super host helped to coordinate top-notch transportation to and from the airport which we later used for our excursions and a fabulous spa afternoon with Five Star Salon and Spa. They performed seven massages right on the outdoor veranda, which was absolutely incredible. Some helpful notes for those looking to stay, I highly recommend renting golf carts to get around to the beach and into Coco as well as using the pre-ordering of food to fill the fridge before getting there. Casa Linda/Isle helped make this milestone birthday celebration truly unforgettable and we enthusiastically recommend this to anyone looking to get away.

Just had an amazing stay at this villa. The view is incredible. Everything was perfect from start to finish. We’re already planning our trip back, and will definitely felt stay longer next time.

Our stay was wonderful and the Ilse was responsive from the second we booked. The housekeep and grounds crew were amazing and kept everything in tiptop shape for the duration of our stay. We will be back and I would recommend this house to anyone looking to travel anywhere in the Guanacaste area!!!

We had the best time here! It’s such a beautiful home and just a short walk (or drive) to Ocotal Beach. The house itself was a destination to enjoy!

From the photos online at first viewing to our final day, I can't think of anything that could have made our stay better. Casa Linda is the perfect location. Walk or golf cart to Gather Rooster. 10 mins to Coco which we did a lot for shopping, new restaurants and our teenager's loved this freedom and adventure. The view is breathtaking taking. The pool was perfect for all of us. We had 13 people. Included kids from age 11 to 20 years old and they all had an amazing time. Playa Ocotal beach was so fun for us all to swim in, play with boogie boards and cool down. We loved coming late in the season, April 18-24, which was less crowded, quieter, no lines at the rienforest, Father Rooster was quiet, Coco was less crowded and we could experience more local life. We enjoy less people. We loved horseback rides at The Monkey Farm which was behind Casa Linda, maybe 10mins on the golf carts on the otherside of the mountain. A great cause and non profit. We can't wait to come back!!!!

This house was stunning. We have stayed in many homes, this was hands down the most pristine - spotless. The view is incredible, gorgeous to wake up to. We spent a day at Diamante Eco Park about 30 mins away. I also recommend The Monkey Farm, basically in the same neighborhood! It has an incredible mission (helping homeless and recovering addicts) and has many activities to choose from. We had 13 people and there was plenty of space. The bedrooms are huge! Would absolutely recommend.

Where to start on this beautiful property. Such an amazing experience with a villa that was an immaculate condition with beautiful furniture and a view that takes your breath away. Could not recommend this little slice of paradise enough. It was an absolute pleasure to have stayed at this location and made our trip to Costa Rica that much more enjoyable!

We loved our time at this house! We had 3 families totaling 12 people and we felt there was more than enough space. The two upstairs bedrooms were very private and quiet, making it easy to sleep in even if there were kids awake downstairs. Ocotal Beach was definitely walking distance and we found the ocean water to be wonderfully clear and happily ate at Father Rooster’s restaurant right at the beach every day. Definitely appreciated the staff that worked on the property to keep it clean and safe. The kitchen was also well stocked with plates / dishes / cookware making it easy to eat breakfast and dinners there everyday. We already miss the peaceful views by the pool! We researched many properties and were a picky bunch but all of us were really happy with the house! No one had any complaints. Would definitely recommend to others.

The house was great. I would highly recommend it.

This place is absolutely gorgeous and the photos do not do it justice. The perfectly-maintained accommodations are set in a beautiful garden landscape with sweeping views over Ocotal Beach. I have stayed in over 50 AirBnBs and have not seen as good a value for our group of 13. Spectacular.

We had an amazing stay! The view of the ocean was absolutely beautiful. The house was very clean. Pools were wonderful. The top 2 bedrooms could only be accessed from a staircase outside, but this didn't change how much we enjoyed the place. Very short drive to Playa Ocotal. Overall would highly recommend!

Would book this Airbnb again!

We had a memorable family reunion at Playa Ocotal Casa Linda. The house was very comfortable for 8 adults and 5 teenagers. The pool is very clean with a wonderful view of the water. Ilse helped us with renting a golf cart which was well worth the expense to go to nearby restaurants and grocery stores. We did take advantage of having essential grocery items delivered for our first day and found the prices to be extremely high. We would not do that again. It is best to stop at a grocery store from the Airport. We would rent this airbnb again in a heartbeat. Pura Vida ❤️
