2BR villa in Playa Grande

Modern beach villa with pool/edge of national park - Houses for Rent in Playa Grande, Guanacaste - cabo Velas, Costa Rica

Overall, our stay at Benito's place was a good experience. The house was clean, and both bedrooms had strong AC. The outdoor area is a major highlight: the wooden deck is highly relaxing, and the pool is just steps away. Inside, the living room is spacious with a Chromecast TV. The kitchen covers the basics, though only one stove burner worked. For privacy, adding a bathroom door would be a great upgrade. Benito was away traveling back from San Jose on our last day, but he made sure to get back to us as soon as he returned to the property. Playa Grande is very quiet with no nightlife, live music, or evening activities, offering just surfing and a handful of restaurants. Wildlife is abundant; we saw many iguanas, squirrels, and birds, especially in the morning.

It has a good location and a quiet environment. The pool and amenities are good. We had problems with access to water, since on the first day there was none, and I think that if you work in hospitality, you should anticipate these situations and take the appropriate measures. It needs a deep cleaning. We found two tarantulas and a scorpion, and everything was closed. They came from the furniture. The master bedroom door was broken, and I had to fix it myself. Be careful with the closet in this room. They left some electrical wires exposed, which I think is dangerous for the children.

Tiene una buena ubicación y entorno tranquilo. La piscina y comodidades están bien. Tuvimos problemas con el acceso a agua, ya que el primer día no hubo y creo que si se trabaja en hospedaje se deberían anticipar estas situaciones y tomar las medidas adecuadas. Le falta limpieza profunda, nos salieron dos tarántulas y un alacrán y todo estaba cerrado, venían de los muebles. La puerta del dormitorio principal estaba mala y tuve que arreglarla yo mismo. Cuidado con el closet de este cuarto, dejaron unos cables eléctricos expuestos, me parece peligroso para los niños.

Wonderful location , very peaceful and quiet🤩 well equipped kitchen with a big fridge. Enjoyed the wonderful pool !

benoit’s place had an amazing oasis surrounding the premises, the place was cozy and well equipped. However due to changes in the tropical weather, there were quite some bugs at night which could be avoided.

We really enjoyed the place. Very nice. An important aspect to consider is that although the bathrooms (toilet and shower) are inside the rooms, they do not have doors...

Disfrutamos mucho el lugar. Muy lindo. Un aspecto importante a considerar, es que aunque los baños (servicio sanitario y ducha) están dentro de los cuartos, no tienen puertas...

Benoit is very grateful to the host. The house is located in a very quiet area surrounded by nature. We had a wonderful few nights and were very happy. The pool and bbq  at the house provide another experience. There are incredible sunsets on Grande beach and other nearby beaches. I highly recommend it.

Good place to relax and disconnect, Ben was super friendly.

The place was private, quiet and surrounded by nature. A perfect place for two couples or a couple with kids.

It has everything you need to cook at home, and the pool is a good option for evenings.

Tiene todo lo indispensable para cocinar en casa y la alberca es buena opción para las noches

The place is super cute. Peaceful, private and super quiet – it's ideal for those who want to rest and disconnect from the city. The Airbnb was spotless, clean and tidy. There are few places to eat. I recommend Kike's place and Hotel Las Tortugas Guanacaste. It's on the seashore and has a very nice view. The pool is definitely a plus. It was super clean and doesn't contain chlorine, which allows those of us who are allergic or have sensitive skin to enjoy it. I highly recommend this Airbnb, mainly for the tranquility, safety, and above all, the cleanliness. Additionally, Ben was a very friendly and helpful person. 5 stars for Ben ✨

El lugar es súper lindo. Tranquilo, privado y súper silencioso -es ideal para los que quieren descansar y desconectarse de la ciudad. El airbnb estaba impecable, limpio y ordenado. Hay pocos lugares para comer. Recomiendo Kike’s place y hotel las Tortugas Guanacaste, esta a la orilla del mar y tiene una vista muy bonita. Un plus sin duda alguna es la piscina, estaba súper limpia y no contiene cloro, lo que permite a los que somos alérgicos o sensibles de piel a disfrutarla. Recomiendo a ojos cerrados este airnbnb, principalmente por la tranquilidad, la seguridad, y sobre todo la limpieza. Adicional, Ben fue una persona muy amable y servicial. 5 estrellas para Ben ✨

Beautiful house, very clean, and the pool is fantastic. If I really have to find a flaw, the water in the shower was not very hot, but otherwise everything was okay!

bellissima casa, pulitissima e fantastica la piscina. Se proprio devo trovare un difetto l'acqua nella doccia non era caldissima, ma per il resto tutto ok!

We really enjoyed staying at Benoît’s place, on the right, very peaceful, and in a wonderful setting, and what more could you ask for with the pool? Benoit answered all our questions about things to see in the area, and even suggested some for us. He himself offers some experiences for visitors, and we took advantage of an afternoon sailboat tour with a sunset at sea. Thanks

Nous avons très apprécié d’un demeurer au logement de Benoît, à droite, très paisible, et dans un décor merveilleux, et que demander de plus avec la piscine. Benoit a répondu à toutes nos questions sur les visites à faire aux alentours, et nous en a même proposé, il offre lui-même certaines expériences pour les visiteurs et nous en avons profité d’un tour en voilier d’un après-midi avec coucher de soleil en mer. Merci

Ben’s place is a magical retreat—a quick drive (or longer walk) to several beach options, walking distance to restaurants and shops. Importantly on hot days, the pool is shaded by trees so you can dive in and cool off immediately! Playa Grande is a small, surfer friendly beach town with a warm heart. When I got a flat tire the chefs from the food truck at the the beach club rushed over the help. Then Ben took the tire to get it fixed! He goes above and beyond as a host, and is a kind-hearted and helpful person who wants you to have your best vacation. I highly recommend a visit to Playa Grande, and staying at Casa Vida in particular!

An excellent place; it delivers what it promises to offer.

Excelente lugar cumple con lo que promete ofrecer

Highlights: beautiful grounds, super private, pool is really nice, spacious condo, well stocked kitchen, access to laundry, really good communication with owner (very responsive and helpful). Condo is walkable to town (12-15 mins) Room for improvement: main bed was very uncomfortable. We found it hard.

Absolute gem - quite, beautiful and laid back. Felt like home.

Our family of 4 had the best stay at Benoit's BnB over our March break! I loved waking up to the sounds of the howling monkeys - it was so surreal! Benoit happily allowed us to check-in early and use the pool: this was a great suggestion after a hot travel day! The accommodation was so private and clean, it was truly relaxing. Our private garden was a real little haven with amazing Costa Rican bush and a hamac to relax in. We all enjoyed the pool and its setting :) I highly recommend Benoit's BnB and I wouldn't hesitate to come back again!! Pura Vida!

Had a great stay here in Playa Grande. Such a nice secluded spot that felt like we had our own private space and were right at home. The beach is stunning and if you have a vehicle there are countless activities a short drive away. A great spot in a quiet area to set up “home base”.

We had such a wonderful stay here and would highly recommend it. Ben was an excellent host — very friendly, welcoming and great with communication, always happy to help with anything we needed. The location is perfect, just a short walk or drive to the beach with some fantastic restaurants nearby. The house itself was spotless, very comfortable and well equipped. The kitchen had everything we needed, including useful extras like spices, coffee and sugar which was a lovely touch. We also loved Tubs the cat, who was so friendly and would often come and relax with us in the evenings. The pool tucked away in the jungle was one of our favourite parts - such a peaceful place to relax, swim and watch the wildlife around us. Ben also took us on a boat trip which we would highly recommend. We went snorkelling, visited a beautiful beach and finished the trip watching the sunset from the boat — it was an unforgettable experience. Thank you Ben! We will be back when we’re next in Costa Rica🌴🥰

Very nice place, well maintained pool. Host was available. Very popular propane BBQ!

Très belle endroit, piscine bien entretenue. L'hôte était disponible. BBQ au propane très apprécié !

Very nice and comfortable. We loved Playa Grande.

Muy lindo y cómodo. Nos encantó Playa Grande.

Beautiful, private location. Loved spending time at the pool. Within driving distance of the beach. We really appreciated using the laundry as well.

We are very satisfied with our stay.  The house had not yet been cleaned when we arrived, but this was quickly resolved and the contact person responded quickly. It's lovely and quiet and you have the feeling you are very private. You are near the beach and have a supermarket a little 10 min drive away.

We zijn erg tevreden over ons verblijf.  De woning was nog niet schoongemaakt toen we aankwamen, maar dit werd snel opgelost en de contactpersoon reageerde snel. Het is er heerlijk rustig en je hebt het gevoel je erg privé zit. Je zit in de buurt van het strand en hebt een supermarkt op een kleine 10 min rijden.

Nice place in a safe location.  Close to the beach and restaurants.  Would def stay again.

Loved our stay, very good location. easy to walk around to the beach or restaurants

We loved the house, environment with lush vegetation, very private, very clean and spacious. Playa Grande beach is the most beautiful we have seen on the Pacific coast! We would highly recommend!

Nous avons adoré la maison, environnement avec végétation luxuriante, très intime, très propre et spacieux. La plage de playa Grande est la plus belle que nous avons vu sur la côte pacifique! Nous recommandons fortement!

The accommodation was impeccable. The perfect size, the pool was just right and necessary, we had some connectivity problems with the wifi, but Ben was very helpful in solving it, however the TV had some problems connecting to the wifi. It is an accommodation with excellent value for money, we would definitely return

El alojamiento impecable. El tamaño perfecto, la piscina justo y necesario, tuvimos unos problemas de conectividad con el wifi, pero Ben fue muy atento en resolver, sin embargo el televisor tuvo algunos inconvenientes para conectarse al wifi. Es un alojamiento con excelente relación precio/calidad, de fijo volveríamos

Great place to stay in Playa Grande! Very peaceful being right in the middle of nature. Pura Vída

Very nice accommodation and ideal for disconnecting 😊 Benoit was very responsive. On the other hand, plan to have a high car (SUV) because the roads are difficult to access.

Très beau logement et idéal pour se déconnecter 😊  Benoit a été très réactif. En revanche prévoyez d’avoir une voiture haute (SUV) car les routes sont difficiles d’accès.

The house is just like the photos in the listing! It's secluded, which is great if you want a quiet place to disconnect...

La casita es tal cual las fotos de la publicación! Queda apartado lo que es súper bien si quieres un lugar de desconexión silencioso…

was good ...but need it some maintanance...

An excellent place if you are looking for peace and to be in contact with nature! Ben is an excellent host, proactive and provides incredible recommendations! The place is beautiful and close to the beaches, an easily accessible place.

Excelente lugar si buscas paz y estar en contacto con la naturaleza! Ben es un excelente host, proactivo y brinda increíbles recomendaciones! El lugar es hermoso y cerca de las playas, lugar de fácil acceso.

What a great stay! Loved the hospitality of Benoit and his family ! Even got a sail in with him as our captain! Very happy with the experience overall….Will be back again soon!

We stayed with Ben for three nights and would have liked to extend because it was so nice! The place is better than it looks in the photos and is really close to the beach. Playa Grande is a cozy surfer village and there are lots of dream beaches nearby. Ben was super nice and gave good tips for activities. He also has a sailboat and we went out with him one afternoon. Absolute recommendation!

Wir waren drei Nächte bei Ben und hätten gerne verlängert, weil es so schön war! Die Unterkunft ist besser als auf den Fotos und liegt echt nahe am Strand. Playa Grande ist ein gemütliches Surferdorf und es gibt super viele Traumstrände in der Nähe. Ben war super nett und hat gute Tipps für Unternehmungen gegeben. Er hat auch ein Segelboot und wir sind an einem Nachmittag ihm rausgefahren. Absolute Empfehlung!

I had some questions about comments I read here about insects and so on. But hey, that's what characterizes Costa Rica. Anyway, I didn't find a single ant in the house. The outside is beautiful, where we could hear the monkeys, see raccoons, butterflies, it is a delight to see that mini forest with a pool that in addition to being surrounded by trees was super clean. Ben's service was a 20 out of 10, he was always available when we had any questions, the house is just as it appears in the photos. The sunsets of Playa Grande are out of this world with those pink and orange tones, you fall in love. Many nearby and super nice beaches can be easily visited by car. Anyway, as I mentioned to Ben, we'll be back soon.

Tuve algunas dudas con respecto a comentarios que leí por acá con respecto a los insectos y demás. Pero bueno lo que caracteriza a Costa Rica es esto, de todas formas en la casa no me salió ni una sola hormiga. En la parte externa es una belleza donde pudimos escuchar los monos, ver mapaches, mariposas, es un deleite poder ver ese mini bosquecito con piscina que además de estar rodeada de árboles estaba súper limpia. La atención de Ben fue un 20 de 10 siempre estuvo pendiente cuando teníamos alguna duda, la casa es tal cual se ve en las fotos. Los atardeceres de Playa Grande son de otro mundo con esos tonos rosados y anaranjados uno queda enamorado. Fácilmente en carro se pueden visitar muchas playas cercanas y súper bonitas. En fin como se lo mencioné a Ben vamos a volver a hospedarnos pronto.

Everything was very nice, the only thing we didn't like was the big beach

Todo fue muy bonito el alojamiento lo único q no nos gustó fue playa grande

It is a very peaceful and safe place. Close to the beach

Un lugar muy tranquilo y seguro. Cerca de la playa

We really enjoyed ourselves. The super friendly and responsive host. The accommodation is very clean and tidy, the pool is very clean. Very close to the beach.

Disfrutamos mucho. El anfitrión super amable y atento. El hospedaje muy limpio y ordenado,la piscina muy limpia.Muy cerca de la playa.

Everything was excellent, my second time and the stay is always very nice. Recommended.

Todo excelente mi segunda vez y la estadía siempre es muy bonita. Recomendado.

The place was great for our family of four with two small kids. Nice outdoor space and great location. Ben was an amazing host that is super knowledgeable of the area and had amazing tips for us. Would definitely come back

Our stay at this property was truly an oasis, so much so that we extended our trip. 🌿✨ From the beginning, we felt the tranquility and privacy that is so appreciated when traveling, which made the experience very relaxing. A big plus was having a washer and dryer at our disposal, something that makes the stay much easier, especially on long or beach trips. The location is also excellent, as it is close to beautiful beaches and very good restaurants. The host, Ben, was always friendly and very helpful. He made sure at all times that everything was in order and any observations we made were addressed immediately, which shows his commitment to the comfort of the guests. In short, a highly recommended place for those looking for rest, a good location and an exceptional host.

Nuestra estadía en esta propiedad fue realmente un oasis, tanto así que extendimos nuestro viaje 🌿✨ Desde el inicio se sintió la tranquilidad y la privacidad que tanto se aprecia al viajar, lo cual hizo que la experiencia fuera muy relajante. Un gran plus fue contar con lavadora y secadora a nuestra disposición, algo que facilita mucho la estadía, especialmente en viajes largos o de playa. La ubicación también es excelente, ya que está cerca de hermosas playas y muy buenos restaurantes. El host, Ben, fue siempre amable y muy atento. Se aseguró en todo momento de que todo estuviera en orden y cualquier observación que hicimos fue atendida de inmediato, lo cual demuestra su compromiso con la comodidad de los huéspedes. En definitiva, un lugar altamente recomendado para quienes buscan descanso, buena ubicación y un anfitrión excepcional.

Great spot. We had a cancelled flight which left us a couple days short on our stay so we didn’t get to explore the area as much as we would have liked, but the stay was perfect. Highly recommend

Overall a very nice place, very clean a well equipped. The entrance and road to get to the property are a bit rough and lower vehicles might not be able to get through

Our experience at this property was unfortunately not positive, and we feel it’s important to share an honest review. We booked four nights but stayed only two, finding another place at our own expense as it was impossible to enjoy a vacation under these conditions. The main bedroom bed was of the poorest quality—uncomfortable and comparable to a hostel bed, making restful sleep impossible. Most furniture was in poor condition, and listing photos show furnishings in good shape that no longer match reality. The house is in a good location, but it clearly needs maintenance to justify the cost and provide a better experience. Upon arrival, the front door was left open, allowing a cat inside (my wife has a severe allergy) along with many insects. Our children slept in fear, and the laundry area had a centipede infestation, making it completely unusable. Ben was friendly and understanding when we left early, but overall, the property did not match what was advertised.

Excellent accommodation, it is just like the photos and description, very nice and comfortable, we loved it. In addition, it is a few minutes from the beach, close to restaurants and shops to buy some supplies. I would definitely pick it again.

Excelente alojamiento, es tal cual las fotos y descripción, muy bonito y cómodo, nos encantó. Además, está pocos minutos de la playa, cercano a restaurantes y tiendas para poder comprar algunos suministros. Sin duda lo volvería a elegir.

The place is wonderful. Traveling from San José with older adults or children is a long journey, but it's wonderful to disconnect for a few days from the noise and the city.

El lugar es maravilloso. Para viajar desde San José, con adultos mayores o niños, se hace muy largo el viaje. pero para desconectarse por unos días del ruido y la cuidad es maravilloso.

It was one of our best stays during our tour of Costa Rica. Everything was just perfect. Benoit is a fantastic, warm person who gave us a nice time. Thank you!

Het was een van onze beste verblijven tijdens onze rondreis in Costa Rica. Alles was gewoon perfect. Benoit is een fantastische, warme persoon die ons een fijne tijd heeft bezorgd. Dank je wel!

We had a fantastic 3 nights at Ben's place. It's set away from the main drag of Playa Grande (which is a sleepy enough little place anyway) so it's very quiet. You can walk to the beautiful beach in 20minutes which is very quiet (we visited in July). The apartment was perfect. Two spacious ensuite rooms and a large kitchen/living space as well as space to eat outside and the stunning pool shared with one other apartment. Loved it.

We stayed 5 days and had a great time, nothing to improve, looking forward to returning

Estuvimos 5 dias y la pasamos super bien nada que mejorar esperando volver

This is a great place in Playa Grande.  It had plenty of space for 4 adults.  Nice kitchen, nice amenities including a wonderful pool.  The free washer/dryer were a real bonus!  Very quiet and secluded location.  We arrived late and were a little confused by the parking situation because you share the parking with guests from the adjoining property.  This is a close drive to restaurants/shops in Playa Grande.  Was a great central location to get to Tamarindo to the South and Playa Conchal to the North.

A very nice, clean, equipped and well-kept place. Very comfortable!

Un lugar muy lindo, limpio, equipado y bien cuidado. Muy cómodo!

Everything comes down to one word, AMAZING, the house is spectacular, spacious rooms with Japanese details, spectacular bathrooms, a huge living room, for lovers of cooking, a unique space for the development of gastronomy, with first world utensils, fully equipped, on the outskirts luxury and comfort, it is being in the middle of the humid tropical forest but totally safe! Ben is a super host, more than attentive at all times and his team is very attentive with support, a beautiful pool and a town worth exploring, Note: the mini supermarket in the area is super equipped 10-10! Ben Thank you for giving the highest quality and sos de CR or outside, this is your place! Beach access on foot 15 min exactly! UNIQUE AND SECLUDED BEACHES!

Todo se resume en una sola palabra, IMPRESIONANTE, la casa es espectacular, cuartos amplios con detalles japoneses, baños espectaculares, una sala enorme , para los amantes de la cocina , un espacio único para el desarrollo de la gastronomía, con utensilios de primer mundo , equipada al mil , en las afueras lujo y conford , es estar en medio del bosque tropical húmedo pero totalmente seguro! Ben es un super anfitrión, más que atento en todo momento y su equipo de trabajo muy atentos con el soporte, una piscina bella y un pueblo que vale la pena explorar,  Nota: el mini súper de la zona está súper equipado 10-10! Ben Gracias por dar la máxima calidad y sos de CR o fuera de , este es tu lugar ! Accesos de playa a pie 15 min exactos! PLAYAS ÚNICAS Y SOLITARIAS!

A peaceful getaway with modern design. I highly recommend this place, it has beautiful green areas and nature. Shoutout to the pool it’s better than the photos.

We really enjoyed the stay. The place is beautiful, full of nature nearby, the house has the required equipment and access to the pool in excellent condition and very nice. We are very grateful to Benoit, who was always concerned and interested in helping us. We hope to come back soon!

Disfrutamos muchísimo la estadía. El lugar es precioso, lleno de naturaleza cercana, la casa con el equipamiento requerido y acceso a la piscina en excelentes condiciones y muy linda. Agradecemos mucho a Benoit que en todo momento se mostró preocupado e interesado por ayudarnos. Esperamos volver pronto!

We liked it a lot, an excellent place!! We would definitely go back!

Nos gusto mucho, excelente lugar!! Sin duda volveríamos!

The place is safe and quiet, clean, bright, it feels spacious due to the large windows and the front terrace, there are more appliances than what is in the information, and the pool is the perfect size. We only had one confusion because in the description, as we understood, it says that there is shared access to the beach, which is very close, but it is not inside the property, you have to go out either on foot or by car, but it is close.

El lugar es seguro y silencioso, limpio, iluminado, da sensación de amplitud por las grandes ventanas y la terracita del frente, hay más electrodomésticos de los que vienen en la información, y la piscina tiene el tamaño perfecto. Solo tuvimos una confusión porque en la descripción, según entendimos, dice que hay acceso compartido a la playa, la cual se escucha muy cerca, pero no es dentro de la propiedad, hay que salir ya sea a pie o en carro, pero es cerca.

Very nice house with everything you need to have a good time, quiet area and close to beautiful beaches, excellent stay....

Casa muy bonita y con todo lo necesario para pasarla bien,  zona tranquila y cerca de hermosas playas,  excelente estadía....

Beautiful place to stay. Well equipped and surroundings

Amazing place to stay!!  Everything was perfect, the king size beds, the pool, the equipped kitchen, laundry.  The best place i stayed my entire trip :)

Playa Grande is a great place to visit.  This home is good but could use some updates.

Hi Benoit, Just a quick note to say a big thank you. We really enjoyed our stay in the house. The natural environment was beautiful and so soothing. In the morning, having breakfast at the outdoor table with the birds singing and the fox passing by was a real treat for the senses. It was a memorable experience that we cherish deeply. We are already planning to come back, it's guaranteed! Thanks again for everything.

Bonjour Benoit, Juste un petit mot pour vous dire un grand merci. Nous avons vraiment apprécié notre séjour dans la maison. L’environnement naturel était magnifique et tellement apaisant. Le matin, prendre notre petit-déjeuner à la table extérieure avec les oiseaux qui chantent et le renard qui passe était un vrai régal pour les sens. C'était une expérience mémorable que nous chérissons profondément. Nous envisageons déjà de revenir, c’est garanti! Encore une fois, merci pour tout.

It needs a lock box for the front door, sticks for the sliding glass doors, and eliminate padlocks.  Padlocks can trap people inside for too long in emergencies.

A beautiful home minutes from Playa Grande, where we saw incredible sunsets🌅! We had a lovely stay! The house was impeccable and very pleasant. Benoît booked activities for us on request and was always attentive. Special mention for the adorable cat 🐈 who accompanied us throughout the stay! A big thank you ☺️

Un très beau logement à quelques minutes de Playa Grande, où nous avons vu d’incroyables sunsets 🌅 ! Nous avons passé un très bon séjour ! L’habitation était impeccable et très agréable. Benoît nous a réservé des activités sur demande et a toujours été à l’écoute. Mention spéciale pour l’adorable chat 🐈 qui nous a accompagné durant tout le séjour ! Un grand merci ☺️

Everything was perfect, only the arrival route that Waze gives is one street ahead. Be careful with that. We had problems with the water in the area, but Benoit helped us quickly. It's worth the fair price you pay and a very safe area to stay.

Todo fue perfecto, solo el camino de llegada que da Waze es una calle adelante. Tomar cuidado en eso. Tuvimos inconvenientes con el agua en la zona, pero Benoit nos ayudó rápidamente. Vale el precio justo que pagas y una zona muy segura para alojarte.

It was a well-kept and beautiful complex with a very spacious apartment. very nicely designed, clean and tidy. The outdoor area is very nice to relax and enjoy the tranquility. There was a cute kitten that visited us daily. Very sweet. Very nice, not far from the beach. The caretaker was extremely friendly and helpful. When we had a flat tire on the car, he helped immediately. The host was also very accommodating and helpful when the Internet was briefly down, he responded immediately and everything worked again. Thanks very much. 💚

Es war eine gepflegte und schöne Anlage mit einer sehr geräumigen Wohnung. sehr schön gestaltet sauber und aufgeräumt. Die Außenanlage sehr schön zum Entspannen und die Ruhe genießen. Es gab ein niedliches Kätzchen was uns täglich besuchte.Sehr süß. Sehr schön nicht weit am Strand gelegen. Der Hausmeister war extrem freundlich und hilfsbereit. Als wir einen Platten Reifen am Auto hatten hat er sofort geholfen. Der Gastgeber war auch sehr zuvorkommend und hilfsbereit als kurz das Internet weg war hat er sofort reagiert und es funktionierte alles wieder. Vielen lieben Dank. 💚

What a wonderful peaceful place to spend a vacation. I wished we would have booked for a longer time. The gardens around the deck that provide shade and respite from the sun were so beautiful, with birds singing. The pool was quite large and refreshing and clean. Well appointed kitchen with everything you need. Walkable to the gorgeous quiet beach with great waves and nearby restaurants. Loved every minute of it. Benoit was so nice and helpful. He helped us with getting groceries, finding restaurants and even a wonderful driver to the other places we needed to go.

Beautiful well-appointed house ideal for 4 people.  The location of the house is quite far from the city but close enough to walk there if you want.  Layout reminds us of the jungle with small passages and mature tall trees.  The pool is much appreciated after a good day at the beach.  Benoit responds very quickly when you need him.

Belle maison bien aménagée idéal pour 4 personnes.  La localisation de la maison se trouve assez loin de la ville mais assez proche pour y aller à pied si vous voulez.  Aménagement fait penser à la jungle avec des petits passages et de grands arbres matures.  La piscine est très appréciée après une bonne journée à la plage.  Benoit réagit très rapidement lorsque vous avez besoin de lui.

Playa Grande in general is stunning. This Airbnb is very private with a beautiful pool and felt very safe which was key when travelling with younger family members. We did experience issues with insects that prevented us from staying in the Airbnb for our final scheduled evening. That said, we recognize it is a tropical location and Benoit did his best to rectify the situation to the best of his ability.

We spent 7 nights there (2 adults and 3 young children). Overall everything was great. The house is well-equipped and we did not miss anything. There is an air conditioning system in each room and ceiling fans, which makes the house comfortable. The exterior layout is very beautiful and pleasant, the pool area is great and the place is quiet and peaceful. There is an employee on site 6 days a week who can help with anything. I wrote to Benoît for recommendations for activities/tips and he responded quickly. He also stopped by to greet us, he even lent us snorkeling equipment and arranged an activity for us. The only downside is the cleanliness. We think the house could have been better cleaned before our arrival. For example, the floors didn't appear to have been washed and neither did the showers (there were soap scum). We had a lovely time.

Nous y avons passé 7 nuits (2 adultes et 3 enfants en bas âges). Dans l’ensemble, tout était très bien. La maison est bien équipée et nous n’avons manqué de rien. Il y a un système de climatisation dans chaque chambre et des ventilateurs au plafond, ce qui rend la maison confortable. L’aménagement extérieur est très beau et agréable, l’espace piscine est super et l’endroit est calme et tranquille. Il y a un employé sur place 6 jours sur 7 qui peut aider avec quoi que ce soit. J’ai écrit à Benoît pour des recommandations d’activités/conseils et il m’a répondu rapidement. Il est aussi passé nous voir pour nous saluer, il nous a même prêté du matériel de plongée en apnée et a arrangé une activité pour nous. Le seul bémol est au niveau de la propreté. Nous pensons que la maison aurait pu être être mieux nettoyée avant notre arrivée. Par exemple, les planchers ne semblaient pas avoir été lavés et les douches non plus (il y avait des coulisses de savon). Nous avons passé un beau séjour.

Loved the house and the pool and most of all the beautiful setting- so many birds and beautiful trees - could hear the howler monkeys before dawn. Then close to spectacular beach.

The house was great, exactly as pictures. Benoit was super helpful with local attractions and he even gave the kids an excellent surf lesson. Highly recommend!

We had a lovely stay at this cute home! It had everything we needed. The host was friendly, communicative and helpful.

This is a gem if you’re looking for amazing beaches, great food and drinks, and a cat that is super friendly. We had a fantastic trip. Ben’s house has great water…drinking and actually warm water to shower which isn’t found everywhere. There is an air conditioner unit in each bedroom which is also very nice. It is a 20 min walk to the beach, but we didn’t mind. It could be challenging with little kids, but there is a pool and you can always drive to the beach. Ben was very responsive and the house was great!

Great place to stay….beautiful, comfortable and peaceful!!

Benoit was helpful and responsive. Great pool too!

Don’t hesitate to book this place! Great home, comfortable beds and fully stocked kitchen. Not to mention the surroundings are absolutely gorgeous and you can hear the waves crashing from the porch! Location to multiple beach areas allowed us to explore and make use of our time.

As the only detail the path if it is in bad condition, in the rest it is perfect spotless

Como único detalle el camino si esta en mal estado, por el resto lugar está perfecto impecable

Great place to relax and decompress with nice amenities and gardens. Close to the beaches via car. Will definitely come back to this place when in the area.

The place is very nice and spacious, Benoit is super friendly and attentive. 100% recommended would come back again.

El lugar es muy bonito y amplio, Benoit es súper amable y atento. 100% recomendado volvería de nuevo.

We had a great time.  It's calm and quiet and the pool is lovely! Ben is great, talkative, kind, and easy to communicate with. We would absolutely stay here again!

The house is beautiful, it is a different trip we could hear howler monkeys; we managed to relax and have a pleasant time with the family!

La casa esta bellísima, es un trip diferente pudimos escuchar monos aulladores; logramos relajarnos y tener un momento agradable en familia!

Bens place was just as advertised, comfortable, peaceful, in a good place at Playa Grande.  We hope to return and recommend anyone consider this place. You won't regret it.

First the great parts of this place: gorgeous and peaceful surroundings, the pool surface was so white, luxuriously smooth.... I'm not sure what it was made of, but wow!!!!. Once my daughter left me alone, I relaxed in the cushy lounge, closed my eyes, and listen to the sounds of nature all around... the trees are breathtaking. The outdoor patio is a special place to hang out in the morning or evening. I loved the modern decor and the large island; the place is very spacious. Just a few things to keep in mind: You should know, only the bedrooms have AC, the living room/kitchen area is quite large, yet only has a fan, however, it really needs a few AC units. I think they would find people would turn them off when they leave if they were able to cool the place off quickly. They need more pillows on the beds, more forks. There were quite a few bugs in the house, so it really needs to be sealed correctly. All in all if you are chill, don't care about little things, I give A+

This was our second visit to Benoit's home. It was lovely to see the caretaker and his family are still there and managing the property. The home is exactly as described. Proximity to Grande is great, Nice to see some new additions including the brewery, food truck court and the local fruit stand. House is comfortable and has a great kitchen set up plus BBQ area. Some hiccups with water (there are water outages consistently in Grande but that comes with the territory) but the host and caretaker were responsive and addressed my questions/concerns.

The location is private and quite. You have to drive to the nearest beach and Tamarino center is further than we imagined. Overall good place for people who prefers some isolation. There are a couple of units in the site and the pool is shared.

Very modern place in beautiful surroundings. We loved the private outside sitting area, hammock and beach shower. The pool is wonderful.

We loved our vacation at Benoit's place. It was definitely leaving the stress of the city behind. Jander was very kind and always attentive to our needs. We felt very quiet and comfortable as the house had excellent conditions. We love how close it is to the beaches and enjoy a spectacular sunset in Playa Grande. My kids enjoyed a lot at the pool and biking around the area. Very happy with the experience.

Nos encantó nuestras vacaciones en casa de Benoit. Fue definitivamente dejar atrás el estrés de la ciudad. Jander fue muy amable y siempre atento a nuestras necesidades. Nos sentimos muy tranquilos y cómodos ya que la casa tenía excelentes condiciones. Amamos lo cerca que está de las playas y disfrutamos de un atardecer espectacular en Playa Grande. Mis hijos disfrutaron mucho en la piscina y de andar en bicicleta por la zona. Muy contentos con la experiencia.

An excellent place, very private and comfortable, close to beautiful beaches

Excelente lugar, muy privado y cómodo, cerca de playas preciosas

An incredible place, as seen in the photos, its staff in charge always worried because we were well and we didn't need anything. Excellent attention.

Un lugar increíble, tal cómo se ve en las fotos, su personal a cargo siempre se preocupó porque estuviéramos bien y no nos hiciera falta nada. La atención excelente.

The house is very spacious and comfortable. It has everything you need, especially for cooking. It's a quiet, private, clean place. The location that Benoit indicates is not the most accurate, since the original map shows an address, Benoit sends another and through the person who received us we found that there was a much easier one. It is recommended to wear repellent and definitely in winter a 4X4 car is necessary. The bathroom had several water leaks in the lavatory and on some occasions there was no drinking water service on site. Overall a very good place to stay but with some improvements. Thank you for everything

La casa es muy amplia y cómoda. Tiene todo lo que se necesita, especialmente para cocinar. Es un lugar tranquilo, privado y limpio. La ubicación que Benoit indica no es la más acertada, ya que el mapa original muestra una dirección, Benoit envía otra y mediante la persona que nos recibió encontramos que había una mucho más fácil. De recomienda llevar repelente y definitivamente en invierno es necesario un auto 4X4. El baño tenía varias fugas de agua en el lavatorio y en algunas ocasiones no había servicio de agua potable en el lugar. En general, es un muy buen lugar para hospedarse pero con algunas mejoras. Gracias por todo!

Great place super close to the beaches, a little hard to find but overall a great experiance!

Very equipped apartment, very nice pool and amenities, relaxing

Apartamento muy equipado, piscina y amenidades muy bonita, relajante

Benoit has a beautiful home, my friends and I enjoyed our stay in his home. He even offered us a great tour guide to do some Horseback riding! The location is surrounded by so much nature and it truly felt like we got the whole Costa Rica experience. 100% recommend to stay here!!

This place was amazing! By far our favorite place we stayed at in CR. Benoit helped us find great local activities and the place was very clean, conveniently located, and private. Would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for the ultimate escape.

Benoits place was perfect for our stay. Check in was easy with Jander showing us where everything was. Place was clean and as described. The pool area down a little path was great. We were a 6 minute drive to Playa Grande and about 35 from Tamarindo. We would definitely stay here again.
