The hosts and Claire were super responsive and quick to respond to everything. The place is superb, as in the pictures, and above all, the house is equipped in a way I have rarely seen. Extra sheets, towels, and soap. More than a fully equipped kitchen. There's nothing missing. A little paradise; I'd go back tomorrow!

This was our first trip to Costa Rica, and I have to say we cannot be happier to have chosen this beautiful home to stay a few days in Playa Grande. We traveled with two kids, ages 8 and 6, and they absolutely loved it. There were so many things to do, from board games to the nice pool and all the beach amenities that the home provided. Claudine and Claire were very responsive and welcoming. The home is located in a great little community, but very private. The wildlife, beaches, and surroundings made this a perfect place to vacation. Lots of great options to eat and also very close to supermarkets and fruit stands to buy your own things and cook at home in this well-equipped kitchen. You really have it all in this amazing home, and we would choose to go there again in a heartbeat if we go to Costa Rica again.

Book without hesitation: the accommodation was clean, very, very well equipped, and well designed. Each room has its own privacy and bathroom, and everything faces the charming courtyard. Good communication from the owners!

The house is simply beautiful. Just as shown in the photos. It is in a safe and quiet place. It is a comfortable house with plenty of space. The terrace area is very nice, and the pool is just what you need. The kitchen is super well equipped. It really doesn't need anything. You have everything you need. They provide pool towels, and they have a cooler that we can use. It has games and things for kids, which I thought was great. It's pet friendly, and for us, that's a huge plus. It is close to beautiful beaches like Playa Minas and Playa Conchal, among others. The closest one is Playa Grande, but it doesn't allow pets, so unfortunately we couldn't visit it, but there are pet-friendly options nearby. They have restaurants, supermarkets, and medical centers nearby. We had a great time and would definitely come back.

We had an absolutely memorable stay with friends! The house was spotlessly clean and perfectly equipped for our needs. The location is ideal, just a few minutes' walk from several excellent restaurants. As soon as we arrived, we were touched by Christian and Claudine's thoughtful touches: fresh fruit, coffee, and even a bottle of sparkling wine were waiting for us. Claudine and Christian are amazing hosts, very helpful, and always ready to answer our questions. I would highly recommend this place in Playa Grande! Once again, thank you for everything!

The house is beautiful, the photos don’t do it justice. It exceeded our expectations. It is in a private setting where you can relax, unwind, and the best part is that you can hear the monkeys in the morning and evenings. Christian & Claude were very responsive to any questions we had and provided us with recommendations of places to eat and things to do in the area. The check-in and check-out process was very easy as well. It was a wonderful trip and we will definitely stay there again during our next trip!

If we ever go back to the Playa Grande area we will absolutely be staying here again. They went above and beyond getting the place ready for us and communicating. There was even a small book inside for recommendations for nearly everything around their place. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone considering it!
Host Response

Beautiful spot! Everything was so nicely decorated and setup. Comfortable furniture and well stocked with supplies and essentials when we arrived. 5-6pm sunsets on the beach were a highlight especially for my toddler ! We had 9 monkeys visit us in the trees near the pool which was amazing. Short drive to the beach / restaurants but I wouldn’t suggest walking. Only downside was there was quite a bit of wind which made the pool dirty often but didn’t stop us from using it. Would recommend! A hidden gem.

Loved our stay. The accommodation is clean, well equipped, located a 15-minute walk from the beach in a very quiet environment. Hosts are responsive and welcoming. The courtyard is so beautiful and offers an enchanting tropical decor that allowed us to fully enjoy the beautiful weather of Costa Rica. A favorite!

Amazing. So comfortable, so homey, and very nice. Claudine and Chris are amazing. They saved our bacon when we became “homeless” suddenly when we had an issue with another rental. They responded so quickly and were so compassionate and helpful. Would recommend to anyone. Also, playa grande is an amazing location we would have never found if not for this super cool house.

This villa was exactly as described, and the photos were accurate, which we really appreciated. Christian and Claudine were very responsive and accommodating, even during Christmas week, which says a lot. The house manager, Claire, truly stood out—she was amazing, incredibly helpful, and responded immediately whenever we had a question or needed assistance. She made our stay seamless and stress-free. The location was great, centrally situated between Tamarindo and Playa Flamingo, making it easy to explore both areas. A quick travel tip for future guests: flying into Liberia is definitely the better option unless you’re prepared for a 4–5 hour drive from San José after your flight. The pool is a bit smaller than it appears in the photos, but it was refreshing and perfect for cooling off after a day of exploring. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would absolutely recommend this villa to anyone looking for a comfortable and well-managed place in Costa Rica.
