Tranquil Oasis in a Premier Gated Community Grande - Houses for Rent in Playa Grande, Provincia de Guanacaste, Costa Rica

We loved it so much! The house is beautiful, clean, super safe, and very comfortable. The pool is clean, and the outdoor shower with hot water is a great touch. We would definitely come back. Highly recommended.

Nos encantó demasiado ! La casa es preciosa limpia súper segura muy cómoda , la piscina limpia , la ducha de afuera con agua caliente un súper detalle . Volveríamos sin duda muy recomendada

Absolute pura vida perfection! The home is flawlessly designed in a great neighborhood and the perfect home base for so many adventures! Great markets and food super close by

The house and location are great! Exactly as described and has everything you need. AC worked great and the storage shed under the carport was great to store a surfboard safely. Super close to the beach and very quiet and peaceful in the backyard. Will definitely be back!

A beautiful house in the middle of the forest; it was perfect for our family. Wonderful beaches nearby. The house was very well equipped, comfortable, and well laid out.

Una casa hermosa en medio del bosque, fue perfecta para nuestra familia. Platas maravillosas cerca La casa estaba muy bien equipada, cómoda y bien distribuida.

This was our first visit to Costa Rica and Shawna's place was the perfect fit for our family of 5. The property was beautiful as pictured- a peaceful, private, light-filled sanctuary. Such a great spot to settle in after a long day at the beach or returning from an adventure. The location is convenient in that it is a short drive from the town where there are a variety of great spots to eat (all well outlined in the guide provided in the home). We had a wonderful stay!

Shawna’s place was fantastic. We throughly enjoyed the property and area. The AC works great and the home is cozy and clean. We felt safe in the gated community and the guards were friendly. The community is stunning, quiet and walkable ( but hilly). There was lots within a short drive. Our highlights were beach surf cafe, the food truck at the beach club and sunsets at playa grande beach. The pool is smaller than it looks in photos, but it was very clean and refreshing. The host was responsive and very accommodating and understanding. We would absolutely stay again.

We had a great relaxing time here, we used the pool every day and enjoyed the bird watching. We could here some howler monkeys in the distance for nice ambiance. The hoe was very clean and well kept and the kitchen was socked with a good supply of pans and utensils for cooking meals. It was no more then 5 minutes to drive to the beach and you can  walk there as well in about 15 minutes. I would definitely stay there again if the opportunity arises.

We had wonderful and relaxing stay in Playa Grande. Shawna provided detailed instructions and recommendations. The house is fully stocked. We loved the outdoor space and property.

Shawna took very good care of us!! Thank you very much!! The only thing I would improve is to offer guests housekeeping during their stay with staff who have good presentation, that complements the experience and comfort of the accommodation. But overall, the house and the place are very nice!

Shawna nos atendió muy bien !! Muchas gracias !! Lo único que mejoraría es ofrecer a los huéspedes servicio de limpieza durante la estadía con personal que tenga buena presentación , eso complementa la experiencia y comodidad del alojamiento. Pero en general, la casa y el lugar muy lindo !

To say we were sad to leave is a very big understatement! House and the entire area is so relaxing and beautiful! Sometimes when I read reviews and I see that the host was helpful it makes me think there was a problem with the place because why do you need to speak with the host? In this case I will say it is completely the opposite! Shawna is simply outstanding and having her as a support made our stay so seamless from restaurant recommendations, booking the best boat tour with Life is Better at Sea, to transportation and more she was fantastic! Thanks again for a super memorable family vacation and we can’t wait to come back!

House was beautiful. Shawna was incredibly responsive, helpful and accommodating. We loved our time there and we would absolutely stay again.

Highly recommend this pristine, beautiful, secure, and private place in Playa Grande! Shawna is the most amazing host ever. She was so helpful as we planned our activities and super responsive. Her hospitality excels all others. The place itself was perfect, with the most relaxing outdoor space with a private pool, lounge chairs, table, hammock, etc. It was our own little sanctuary where we’d listen and watch birds, lizards, and monkeys! The air conditioning was great inside with a full kitchen and unlimited filtered water and ice. The beds are super comfortable. The place is absolutely gorgeous and there’s a nearby market. Pots and Bowls is a great place for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. We felt very safe in this beautiful gated community surrounded by nature. The 24/7 security guards are wonderful ~ it felt like coming home to a dream vacation everyday.

We had a great vacation with our only regret not having stayed longer. The house was clean and comfortable, just as pictured in the photos. With an SUV, we took day trips almost every day and enjoyed the beach at Playa Grande. We enjoyed the nearby restaurants. Shawn was helpful and responsive.

Perfect vacation house in a wonderful part of Costa Rica, recommend fully

Our stay at this house was absolutely perfect! The house was stunning—clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed for relaxation. The community was close to the ocean, restaurants, and shops, which made exploring so convenient and fun. Shawna went above and beyond to make our trip unforgettable. She was incredibly responsive, helping us book activities and ensuring everything went smoothly. The grocery stocking service was a fantastic touch—we arrived to fresh food and drinks, which made settling in so easy. This home truly offers the perfect mix of comfort, convenience, and Costa Rican charm. Highly recommend, and we’ll definitely be back!

Everything was so fantastic at this house, my family of 5 stayed here and we had such a great time spending our day at the beach just a very short drive away- followed by the pool at the house. We even saw some monkeys in the trees while we were swimming one evening. Everything from the rooms, the kitchen, the location we loved it all. Wish we could stay again!

Great rental in Ventanas. The house was just as pictured and full of amenities. Shawna went above & beyond. She’s a great host - very responsive and knowledgeable. Her service was a great plus to this rental.

This was the perfect place for us for our week in the Tamarindo area. Lovely home. Very clean. Super safe neighborhood great for walks. We would stay here again no question. Thanks!

This was our first time to visit Costa Rica and we loved Playa Grande. The house is located just outside of town, so you will want a car. That said, the neighborhood is beautiful and we felt very safe in the gated community. The house is amazing and has everything you need. Shawna was quick to answer any questions, give recommendations and even helped us plan for a chef to visit the house and make dinner. We loved our time here and can’t wait to come back!

Excellent place, everything was spotless, we had a great time, 100% recommended.

Excelente lugar, todo impecable la pasamos genial, 100% recomendado.

Great place in a gated community. Beaches nearby. House was well designed to keep cool on the afternoons.

Our stay was amazing! The location of the house was perfect. We felt safe in the gated and well guarded community. The security guards were very nice. The beds were very comfortable and everything was very clean. Shawna was very quick to answer our questions. No complaints, it was a wonderful holiday! Definitely do it again.

Notre séjour fut incroyable! La localisation de la maison était parfaite. Nous nous sommes sentie en sécurité dans la communauté fermée et bien gardée. Les agents de sécurité étaient très gentils. Les lits étaient très confortable et tout était très propre. Shawna répondait très rapidement à nos questions. Rien à redire c’était de merveilleuses vacances! À refaire assurément.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!  The home and surroundings were beautiful, and it was the perfect size for our family of 4 (with 2 teens).  The location was great, and we had fun checking out the local restaurants and beaches. We also enjoyed cooling off in the pool in the afternoons.

Amazing stay, super responsible host was worth every minute, super recommended and it's home especially tech and very welcoming

Increíble estadía, host super responsable valió la pena cada minuto, súper recomendable y está casa en especial es tecnológica y muy acogedora

My husband and I just enjoyed eight lovely days at Shawna's place and throughly enjoyed ourselves. The home is situated in a gated community, so we always felt safe, and far enough from the maddening crowd and still close to all the action. The pool is a lovely private spot to spend the day or a quick 5 minute drive and you are at one of the loveliest beaches in Costa Rica with a variety of places to eat, take surf lessons, join an excursion or just chill on the beach. We had everything we needed to prepare meals at home and although there were visits by the gardeners they never interfered with our privacy. We would highly recommend and are already planning our next visit.

i don'thave enough good things to say about this place. it was AMAZING, and Shawna was so responsive all the time. Location was great. 8 mins away from Playa Ventanas, and good places to eat around.

We loved having you all Lindsey! Until next time!!

We had a wonderful Christmas stay! The house was very clean and we used the kitchen most nights to cook. The pool was wonderful and it was just the restful family time we needed. The  neighborhood location was perfect and we walked every day to Playa Grande in the morning for exercise. The location is absolute paradise!!

loved staying at the house. it was the perfect house for our family. we loved how private and secure the community is. shawna was great and always responded quickly. we will for sure be back!

We just as much loved having you all! Welcome back anytime and thanks for such a glowing review.

Perfect!! Had everything we needed and more.  Very quiet and low key.  If you're looking to kick back and relax this is the place for you. Easy to get to the beach.  Pool was great to take a morning dip or relax after a day full of adventure.  Highly recommend taking advantage of the concierge service Shawna provides. The property is well maintained.

We enjoyed our stay a lot. The house and its amenities met our needs and felt safe in the secure complex. The location was perfect for our activities. We would go back without hesitation!

Nous avons beaucoup apprécié notre séjour. La maison et ses commodités ont rencontré nos besoins et on se sentait en sécurité dans le complexe sécurisé. L’emplacement était parfait pour faire nos activités. On y retournerait sans hésiter!

Beautiful house, close to Grande Beach and supermarkets. The rental is very well equipped with everything you need, as well as very clean.

We very much enjoyed this home. The property has beautiful grounds. Everywhere you look is greenery and nature! The house is exactly as described. Very clean. We swam everyday in the pool, it was glorious. We also loved the area, quiet with the playa grande beach within a 10 minutes drive and so many incredible beaches to explore. Lots a nice cafes et restaurants also close by. We fell in love with Costa Rica and hope to be back soon. Pura Vida ❤️

Ventanas is a beautiful development in Playa Grande. The security guards there could not be nicer. The house layout is great and the yard and pool area were nice to enjoy with the kids. The monkeys and birds around the property are lovely and quite the treat. The location of this house is the perfect jump off to explore the coast line and surrounding towns. Don't skip sunset at Playa Grande!

This place was perfect for our family. Shawna was super helpful leading up to the trip, and even helped in suggesting a spot to fix a flat tire while we were there. Its located in a gated community so it felt secure and very private. There is a small playground and community infinity pool that we had to ourselves every time we went. House has everything you will need. Super close to all the restaurants in Playa Grande but also a quick drive to Tamarindo as well. Would highly recommend and would easily book again!

This home was tastefully decorated, clean and modern with the perfect layout for our family of four.  We cooked often and had everything we needed in the kitchen.  The pool and backyard landscaping were beautiful.  Shawna was available to answer all our questions both before and during our stay.  The gated community was fantastic.  We loved the security and privacy.  Very few cars went down our road.  The view from the clubhouse was amazing.  Our family really enjoyed the infinity pool, ping pong and lounge area. We were the only people there both times we went.  One day we kept driving past the clubhouse and saw 360 degree views from the top of the hill.  Just beautiful.  The only downside to spectacular views is the steep road.  It was not a problem, just something we were not expecting and had to get used to, coming from a flat part of Texas! The area of Playa Grande had just enough amenities and a large beach within a mile of the entrance to the community. Wonderful stay!

Wonderful house! Location near the beaches:) thoughtful host

Merveilleuse maison ! Emplacement près des plages :) hôte attentionnée

My family of 7 stayed there- it was an amazing and relaxing place! We enjoyed early mornings in the pool, trips to the beaches and enjoying the patio afterwards. It was very comfy and had all the necessities we needed for our stay. 10/10. Would go back!!

Great location and very NEW and clean home, smelled so clean/natural when we checked in (no string chemical smells). Home had it all! Kids loved the backyard and the clubhouse.  Nice that there are guards and a gated entrance too. Comfy. Bamboo mattresses and soft pillows. Loved this home so much!

Our family of five could not have been happier with Shawna’s place. Booking later than we intended we felt very fortunate to have found it available . Ventanas is a beautiful neighborhood where we found the home and yard to be very private with a gorgeous view. The pool was perfect for our kids and the back patio was covered during the hottest part of the day. The house was the cleanest I have experienced with an Airbnb property. It had everything we needed and it was all in very good condition. From this location there were many fabulous restaurants within a 5-10 minute drive including El Huerta and Pots and Bowls. Playa Grande and Playa Ventanas were both beautiful beaches that were not very busy and the larger waves were fantastic for boogie boarding. From Ventanas we explored many other beaches and activities. Shawna was always friendly, available and helpful when we needed it. She is a superb host and we hope to have another opportunity to stay at her place again. Pura Vida!

Very nice place, quiet, super clean, as described, the hostess is super attentive and friendly, she would definitely come back.

Muy lindo lugar, tranquilo, super limpio, tal cual se describió, la anfitriona super pendiente y amable, volvería sin lugar a dudas.

We were here with 3 kids of 4,  6 and 8 years old. The pool was perfect for the safety for the kids. The kitchen was well equiped and there was all the commodities that a family could have needed. We saw and heard howler monkeys just down the hill from the top of the parking. We visited beaches near by during the morning, we hate in little restaurants and then we chilles at the house the rest of the day. It was perfect. The air conditionner was quiet and sooo usefull during our stay during the dry season. We are grateful of finsibg this place. There was construction nesr by, but it was not disturbing at all. The birds were filling our ears anyways😉 We recommend it 110%

We traveled here as a family (two kids and a grandparent). What an absolute dream. The house is perfect for a family, the pool was awesome. It’s located in a gated community 5min away from Playa Grande and 25min from Tamarindo. It allowed us to discover the beauty that Guanacaste has to offer in a calm environment. I would recommend 100%.

We had a great time! The house was amazing and well suited to our family. Easy access to groceries, restaurants and the local beaches!

We loved staying at Shawna’s house and having our own little slice of ours Vida heaven. It was so easy to picture ourselves coming back to this home again and again! As the photos show, the house is lovely with beautiful natural woods throughout and gorgeous landscaping on the property. The pool is just the right size for kids cooling off in the afternoon or adults stargazing at night. The house is in a beautiful and safe development, but feels super private. Amenities like coffee shops and restaurants are right down the road, as is one of the most beautiful, quietest beaches we visited in all of the country- Playa Ventanas!

This place if beautiful! We went at the high season so it is not low-cost but the house is great and the community pool/clubhouse is amazing and even at high season (x-mas) the pool was empty. With Wifi and views of the ocean, I spent most of my free time at the community pool even though the house itself was also perfect. We did a lot of cooking at the house as the kitchen has the core tools. The local restaurants are good but can be very expensive so we found staying at the house to be a better option. This area by Playa Grande is far superior to Tamarindo in our opinion because it is quiet and remote and the beach access is so amazing and peaceful.

This house is absolutely magical. We stay in Costa Rica frequently but this house has been one of our favorites. It was super clean, tasteful and very comfortable. The little pool was a godsend for our grandson and we enjoyed it as well. The setting is very private and serene. One hundred percent recommend this house. A great value.

This is a really nicely laid out and maintained property.  It is located in a gated community with a nice pool.   Perfect for a family.

The house is perfect, as shown in the photos and indicates the description. It has everything you need, the cleanliness is exceptional and communication with Shawna is immediate. We recommend traveling by vehicle, the streets are perfect. Would we definitely love to return.

La casa es perfecta, tal y como se muestra en las fotos e indica la descripción. Tiene todo lo necesario, la limpieza es excepcional y la comunicación con Shawna es inmediata. Recomendamos viajar en vehículo, las calles están perfectas. Sin duda nos encantaría volver.

Shawna’s house is a spacious, peaceful retreat in the gated community Las Ventanas. It worked perfectly for our group of four during a 2.5 week stay. We loved having a private pool, and it was a delightful bonus to have access to surf boards and bikes as well! The clubhouse is a must see, with an infinity pool and sweeping views of Playa Grande and Tamarindo. The property is large and quiet; there’s only one house directly nearby so it feels very private. We saw several types of birds, howler monkeys, and iguanas while we were there. Everyone in my group was working remotely and we had no issues. Wifi speed was around 100mbps through the whole house. There are no longer computer chairs (as in the listing pictures), but the dining chairs worked just fine. As another reviewer mentioned, the power went on and off a few times, but it’s not unique to this house, it’s the entire neighborhood. It happened maybe 4-5 times while we were there, but didn’t interfere with our work.

We rented with our family for 4 days and we really appreciate the house and the commodities. Jorge and shawna were really helpful and very quick to reply. The house is very clean, secure and close from the beach. The kids loveeeed the monkey in the trees at the house. We highly recommand the house and we are looking foward renting the house again!

Beautiful home in a beautiful setting. Plenty space/privacy, great location. Perfect for our group of 4 adults and 3 kids. Currently the last couple 100 meters of road to get to the house are in pretty bad shape so a 4x4 is recommended, but I'm sure that'll be taken care of soon. If we go back to Grande we'll be happy to stay here again.

Thanks so much for a great review Sander! There is actually the other way around that is MUCH better right now, you must have missed that in my directions..so sorry! We are also paving the road ASAP as well, which will be helpful.

A beautiful, clean home in a secluded area with a great view and all amenities. Highly recommended!

Great property in an amazing location - the complex is still under construction so some building noise but it will be nirvana in a year!!

Beautiful place and the house very cozy, it met my expectations to enjoy a short family vacation. Shawna is a friendly and helpful host.

Hermoso lugar y la casa muy acogedora, cumplió con mis expectativas para disfrutar de unas cortas vacaciones en familia. Shawna una anfitriona amable y atenta.

Shawna’s place was fantastic. It looks exactly like the photos (if not better) and my three friends and I were extremely comfortable throughout the trip. There is more than enough space in the house and everything worked properly. We got the internet upgraded as we had 4 people working remotely and that worked perfectly. Las Ventanas is a nice community with friendly staff and security. The house is a bit difficult to get up to by a very steep and bumpy dirt road, but we were still able to do it with a 2WD. The only issue was that the power in the house would go on and off every so often and once or twice stayed off for prolonged periods, but that wasn’t specific to our house. Overall a fantastic place and we really enjoyed our time staying here. Highly recommend!

Great rental home. The Ventanas community has great amenities for families. Very safe and close to the beach.

Absolutely Beautiful Home!!! Super chill comfortable and clean!!

We loved hosting you both! Thanks for taking such great care of our house!

Beautiful home with great pool for cooling off. Great birding from the front lawn!

Beautiful, quiet, oasis. Lovely home in the Ventana Community.

Thanks Anna! It was a true pleasure hosting your sweet family!

Beautiful, modern home in gated community! Clubhouse was a bonus with an amazing view of the ocean! Had many useful appliances in the kitchen; blender, microwave, and dishwasher as well as a washer and dryer! Had a wonderful time and would recommend!

Thanks so much Ashley! We really enjoyed having you all!

This house was great for my family of 5. My kids loved the bunk beds.  We found everything we needed in this house.  The house was clean and the amenities in the neighborhood are great.  We saw the most beautiful sunset from the community pool.  We will definitely book this home again.

Thanks so much Shawn! Stoked you all had such a great time! We are working on some outdoor furniture.

Excelente hospedaje y seguro. Muy linda la casa

Just what my family and I were looking for, great place, privacy and being away from the crowd is one of the most important things we look for when we go to the beach, and at this place you can 100% get that. The house has it all, everything you need is right there, it looks better and bigger than the pictures. We had an awesome time at this property, we did not want to leave. Playa grande is like 7 minutes away by car, and other beaches are 20 to 30 minutes away. The town of Huacas is like 30 min away, and you could find supermarkets and other things to do. There are restaurants near by. We would look forward to go back.

We are so thrilled to hear that you had such a great stay at Casa Lokamar! Hope you can all visit again soon!

Spectacular! A very comfortable and complete house.

Espectacular! una casa muy cómoda y completa.

Super! Estamos muy contentos que disfrutaron!

Our family of four absolutely loved this home! Amazing house in a great location that is super close to the beach. Beautiful modern design with everything you need!  We especially loved being surrounded by nature in the beautiful Las Ventanas gated community. Shawna was a wonderful host and always available if we needed anything. I highly recommend this place if you are looking for the perfect family rental in Playa Grande.

Excellent experience on site, everything clean, very complete house, quiet and nice connection.

Excelente experiencia en el lugar, todo limpio, casa muy completa, ligar tranquilo y bonito.

Beautiful house in a very safe gated community near multiple great beaches, restaurants, and activities. Shawna and Jorge were super attentive to our requests and took care of them quickly. Great spot to get away from the hustle and bustle of a big city, not too far from the airport. Highly recommended.
