We love it..!  Like to be at home, beautiful house, everything was perfect

I just got home and I'm already dying to go back! Thank you!

Acabo de llegar a mi casa y ya me muero por volver! Gracias!

Beyond excellent .. we ll def be coming back.

Casa Howler is an amazing villa that is just a short walk to beach, and close to shops and restaurants in Potrero. Easily accommodated our 4 adults and 4 teens with lots of space to spread out. We loved the pool, strong A/C, and the beach gear. Don’t miss out on the sunsets, local yoga at the boutique hotel nearby, and having Veronica cook a meal for you. She was lovely and the meal was delicious! The area felt very safe— there was is a security guard on the premises at night, which didn’t feel necessary,  but was a welcome addition. Salty was an amazing host and super responsive and helpful! Highly recommend as a home base in the Guanacaste area!

We loved our stay at Casa Howler! The host was responsive and accommodating, and helped us with car services as well as find local spots like a grocery store. The house was absolutely beautiful and was mere steps from the beach! This was our first time in Playa Portrero, but certainly not our last!

Great expereince! Very helpful host. Very responsive. Everything was great. beautiful area. We will definitely be back again! Highly recommended.

Casa Howler was the perfect location for our vacation with our adult children, there was lots of room for everyone to spread out and the air conditioning worked perfectly.  It was close to the beach, walkable to grocery stores and restaurants. Potrero beach was the perfect beach not crowded and just the perfect waves for playing in. I would recommend this location in a heartbeat.

The house was beautiful - spacious, great flow and everything felt new and pristine. And the host (Salty) was extremely responsive and helpful. He connected us with great local activities and people. I would highly recommend this place and host!

Perfect stay! Clean, comfortable, great location near the beach. Excellent host. Highly recommended.

House is huge and looks even better than the pics.  It’s modern and beautiful. The beach is a block away and was very calm and swimmable. Lots of bars and restaurants in walking distance and lots of other beaches to drive too as well. Could not ask for more.

The place was beautiful and very spacious. It felt peaceful and nicely isolated, yet still close to beaches, bars, and great restaurants. The perfect balance between relaxation and convenience — we truly enjoyed our stay. The staff was absolutely kind and friendly, very responsive, and quick to answer questions or resolve any concerns. Nora, the security guard, in particular was wonderful — she was so kind and an absolute pleasure to communicate with. Pura Vida!

This house was great for 2 families with kids! House was clean, everyone had their own space.  Close to everything and Potrero has a great vibe! Alberto and his team were super responsive and helpful.

We had a wonderful stay at the house! It was very private, safe, and spacious. The rooms were spacey and comfortable. Bed was comfortable, everything was very clean! The location was perfect—close to the marina, which was absolutely stunning. Everything was clean and well-maintained. We truly enjoyed our time here and would definitely stay again! Ps. Private guard was incredible. Pool was also incredible. Our family spent 90% of the time in it :)

Ideal for enjoying with family and friends!! Very peaceful and quiet location of the house!!! I recommend it because it has everything a luxury home has at a very affordable price!!!

Ideal para disfrutar con la familia y amigos!! Mucha tranquilidad y paz en la ubicación de la casa!!! Se los recomiendo ya que tiene todo lo de una casa de lujo a un precio muy accesible!!!

Magnificent place to vacation, close to everything

Magnífico lugar para vacacionar, cerca de todo

We had the perfect stay at Casa Howler! The house itself is gorgeous, just like in the pictures. Immaculately clean. Pool is perfect, surrounded by nature. The beach just minutes away is amazing. What really made this trip perfect was the host - rapid responses, always helpful, going above and beyond, and never making us feel like we were a nuisance. Extremely professional and gracious! Highly recommend <3

I booked this for my bachelorette and it was perfect! The house is so stunning just like the photos and the host is super helpful booking anything we needed! Highly recommend.

Such a great house for a family of five to be able to spread out and enjoy our time in Costa Rica!  It was a great base for us to be able to explore different areas around us and then come home and relax at the end of the day.  We would definitely stay here again.  Salty was very helpful in planning and coordinating some activities and very communicative.

Casa Howler was gorgeous and spotless —exactly as pictured. The pool was really nice, and we even saw howler monkeys in three trees on the property on our last day. The beach is a short walk away. Salty also helped us arrange a turtle tour, which was amazing. We were able to see baby turtles go to sea. Playa Potrero was a nice, quiet town, which was great for us. You can easily walk along the beach to the restaurants or it’s a short drive. I would choose this Airbnb again! I was a little surprised that the property has a security guard overnight. He was quiet and respectful. The property is also surrounded by a fence, some with razor wire, as it is close to the main road. I think this is typical for upscale homes in Guanacaste but was different than what we experienced in other areas.

We loved this house! It was clean, large and spacious.  The rooms were very private. The kitchen was beautiful and the outdoor area was amazing!  The pool was great and the extra security was a bonus. It is super close to the beach and we saw tons of wildlife! Howler monkeys in the trees every day. Lots of birds and other wildlife.  It is Costa Rica so there were some bugs and ants but nothing that would make us not stay here again.

Casa Howler is exactly as described and in the photos. The biggest positive for me was that it was spotlessly clean. The Salty team was very responsive and attended to our needs very promptly. Closest beach is  Portero and that’s a 3-5 minute walk. Short drive to lots of local eateries, grocery stores. The Salty team arranged for a chef to cook breakfast (for a nominal add-on), that was relief for me traveling with kids. The house in the last one the street, so good privacy and the lot backs into woods/trees and a small stream. It makes it a great spot to watch numerous birds. Overall, very relaxing vacation and will go back again!

Beautiful and comfortable house for a larger group. Easy to get to the beach  and restaurants, grocery store all within walking distance.

The house was amazing. Plenty of space for us to spread out. Great location - walk to the beach and restaurants. Pool was a fabulous amenity and the house had a great layout. Master suite was lovely.

House was as described and location was great for a short walk to closest Potrero Beach (3-5) min and a number of restaurants and a supermarket (10-15 minutes with a 6 and 3 year old).  Pool at the house was superb for little kids and perfect to come back to after a morning/early afternoon at the beach.  Salty was very responsive to us when we had a key break in a lock and he had it fixed same day as well as a temporary power outage (electrical company issue not a house issue).

The house is absolutely gorgeous. The pool, yard, monkeys, house design - all much cooler than pictures. The house is very private at the end of a road a short walk from Playa Potrero and a short drive from 6 beaches, all of which were pretty quiet even during high season. A short walk down the highway or beach is a dozen or two restaurants, including a brewery, which were traffic. The location was perfect. Salty was super responsive. There were minor leak issues ahead of our checkin, which they worked in resolving very promptly. The house is well appointed, with beach chairs, pool floaties, boogie boards (we left 2 new ones) and a larger cooler (may be worth bringing small collapsible one for the walk to Conchal, or freezer packs). The kitchen has necessities including a coffee maker and even chip clips. If we return, we'd come with Ziplocs. Bug spray was not needed but expect spiders, crabs, scorpions, giant grasshoppers and other bugs typical of Costa Rica. Pura Vida!

Great location, away from more commercial touristy stuff. Place was conveniently located short walk to beach or short drive to nearby beautiful uncrowded beaches. Wonderful to have the pool, with shallow end perfect for toddlers.

The house is beautiful, quality linens and nice furnishing … best of all, there are howler monkeys in the backyard. Veronica kindly helped us with cleaning. Host was very responsive. Would stay again!

We loved this stunning house in Playa Potrero. The location is wonderful and the space is gorgeous. Alberto was so friendly and helpful.

Casa Howler was perfect for our vacation! The Salty Team is amazing and very accommodating, we truly enjoyed our stay.  The home is just as pictured. Very well maintained interior and exterior. Washer and Dryer on the main level, clean linens and fresh towels. The pool is cleaned twice per week and there is an overnight security guard to ensure you feel safe throughout your stay. The team recommended a local cook, Veronica, and she was amazing. The grocery shopping was completed prior to our arrival. We arrived to a homemade meal on the very first night after a long day of travel and woke up to breakfast the next morning as we headed out for the day's journey. Throughout our stay the team was always a text away to assist with our needs prompt and timely with every request. Thank you for a wonderful stay. ¡Pura Vida!

We had a wonderful stay! The house was just what we expected from the website. The beach was a quick walk. We did rent a golf cart to get around town quickly. Salty, was quick to reply to any questions we had and was very helpful upon our arrival. Overall, we would stay again and we will recommend to our friends and family! We hope to be back soon

We truly enjoyed Salty's Casa Howler! The home was spacious, clean, well-decorated & comfortable. Highlights: comfy beds, cold air conditioning, and excellent soundproofing (we couldn't hear others in the house with us or any outside noises), separate bar area with two wine fridges, pool perfect for morning and late afternoon dips.  We appreciated the available extras: abundance of towels, iron, cooler, and beach chairs (only 2).  The home felt safe and was equipped with an alarm and a security guard on site each night. We took advantage of the private chef and had a delicious meal prepared in home for us one night.  Although our wifi went down one evening, Salty's team was responsive and when our efforts to trouble shoot were futile, they sent someone the next morning and got it back online. The location was great: steps to the beach, a small market and several great restaurants. Several other beaches were within a 30-40 minute drive. We didn't see any monkeys, but wished we had!

Floor to ceiling windows in every room grant the beauty of the inside to be enhanced by an even greater beauty surrounding the home. Outside those windows, the beauty of Costa Rica’s flora and fauna gave us an immersive experience one would never expect out of a home. Safe, secure, comfortable were felt in this oasis conveniently located along the Rio Cacao and within walking distance to beaches, restaurants, and more. Our host was more than helpful, and made our stay a delight with his clear communication and his willingness to answer our questions about nearby activities and opportunities. If I ever find myself in this part of Costa Rica, I will make sure to reserve this home. More than exceeding our expectations, it became our home for our stay, and the memories my family and I made there will last us a lifetime. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Great stay in private area, yet close to restaurants and the beach

Really a 4.5 star rating. My family and I, of 7 adults, had a great time. On the wish list would be more kitchen items, like mugs, plates, etc. because we cooked a lot. Another wish would be that the 4th bedroom functioned more for adult peers. The primary bedroom was amazing with tons of storage. The other bedrooms, less so. On the plus side, gorgeous surroundings, nestled into trees. Ability to hear and see howler monkeys. Beautiful pool lounge area. AC always rocking (except the 1st night when 1 remote didn't have batteries). Easy walk to beach, and a small village of eating/drinking establishments and shops. We used the concierge services for 3 trips. Communication was good for that, but we probably should have asked more questions, as not every description was adequate. In hindsight we might have booked different tours that better suited our fitness ability. However, the tours were well-run and everyone was friendly, and we were exposed to once-in-a-lifetime adventures.

Thanks to Salty for the excellent service we received throughout the trip. Salty booked several expeditions for our group, he guaranteed us the best prices and after comparison, the prices were cheaper with him. He responded to all of our messages within the hour and even wrote during our stay to make sure everything was going smoothly. What about the villa... it looks beautiful! It is clean, new, spacious, conveniently located a 3 minute walk to a quiet and beautiful beach, and so on. There is air conditioning in the entire villa. All bedrooms and bathrooms are new and modern, the pool and outdoor courtyard great. In addition, we can no longer recommend (+++) Veronica (House Mom), it charges a very reasonable price and comes to cook at home: she sends you the list of ingredients to buy and she takes care of the rest. Its kitchen is exceptional and adapted to your needs and as a bonus, she is kind! Thank you

Merci à Salty pour l'excellent service reçu tout au long du voyage. Salty a réservé plusieurs expéditions pour notre groupe, il nous a garanti les meilleurs prix et après comparaison, les prix étaient meilleur marché avec lui. Il a répondu à tous nos messages dans l'heure et il a même écrit pendant notre séjour pour s'assurer que tout se passait bien. Que dire de la villa... elle est magnifique! Elle est propre, neuve, spacieuse, idéalement située à 3 minutes de marche d'une plage tranquille et magnifique, et j'en passe. Il y a l'air climatisé dans la villa entière. Toutes les chambres et salles de bain sont neuves et modernes, la piscine et la cours extérieure superbes. De plus, nous ne pouvons plus recommander (+++) Veronica (House Mom), elle charge un prix très raisonnable et vient cuisiner à la maison: elle vous envoie la liste d'ingrédients à acheter et elle s'occupe du reste. Sa cuisine est exceptionnelle et adaptée à vos besoins et en bonus, elle est gentille! Merci à vous

Casa Howler was exactly as advertised. The home was immaculate and beautifully put together. Salty concierge was extremely helpful and helped to make a dream vacation. Pros: - Beautiful home with plenty of space for 5 - close to bars and restaurants in Potrero (walkable but be careful as there are no sidewalks) - close to the beach (<5 min walk) - Salty concierge helped to coordinate everything we wanted to include car reservation at Liberia airport, snorkeling, fishing, sloth/rainforest tour, in home cooking - flexible host that allowed us to check in early - wildlife around the home - a family of Howler monkeys, birds, doggies - serene pool surrounded by tall tropical trees providing privacy - PLENTY of towels - comfortable beds - AC in every room Recommendations: - 4 wheel drive car as roads can be a bit rough - hire the cook the first night (we did last night) because her cooking is delicious and you may want her to cook every night - bug spray (lots of it)

Had an amazing stay at this beautiful modern home! The property has its own private jungle backyard. Expect to see lots of birds and animals from the comfort of the pool. The double height space and large windows make it feel like you’re immersed in the jungle. We even got to see howler monkeys jump from tree to tree several times in the mornings! The house is also a short walk to potrero beach to catch amazing sunsets and jump in the ocean. Salty mangrove property managers and concierge were incredible providing assistance to book tours and activities like sunset catamaran cruises, surf lessons and sightseeing tours (waterfalls and hot springs) Made our stay feel like a hotel experience! Will be back!

The house is super cute, spacious, quiet and clean. It has plenty of space in the kitchen to organize the food and utensils needed for your stay. Alberto met us and gave us the tour of the house, he was quite friendly and friendly, he always responded quickly to all our doubts and was waiting for everything to be in order during our stay. The house is much nicer and more spacious than what you can see in the photos. I 100% recommend it to spend a few days with family or friends, it is super comfortable and has restaurants and beaches nearby.

La casa es súper linda, espaciosa, silenciosa y limpia. Tiene bastante espacio en la cocina para organizar los alimentos y los utensilios necesarios para la estadía. Alberto nos recibió y nos dio el tour por la casa, fue bastante amable y amigable, siempre respondió rápidamente a todas nuestras dudas y estuvo pendiente de que todo estuviera en orden durante nuestra estadía. La casa es mucho más bonita y espaciosa que lo que se logra apreciar en las fotos. La recomiendo al 100 por ciento para pasar unos días en familia o con amigos, es súper cómoda y tiene restaurantes y playas cerca.

these guys were great with help, and got back with clear and responsive communication ! the place is brand new, so pretty much zero issues with anything, the pool was clean and a good size!, beds were comfy, House was well outfitted, with lots of nice towels ! We had all kinds of birds, monkeys and a sloth right in our yard! the Bedrooms were well laid out nice for 1 Large or 2 smaller families, with privacy when you wanted it. the 3 minute walk to the beach and 6 minute walk to the store ( that had almost Everything you'd need ) was also handy! nice job guys! thank you !

The house was amazing, extremely peaceful. You're close to the beach and the town street, yet have the look of staying in the jungle. The backyard was very private with all the large trees and creek running behind it.  Alberto was our main contact and he was quick to answer every question and help set us up for all our needs from little or big. Highly recommend staying at this house for a nice peaceful vacation.

The place is beautiful! Bugs are the only downfall but that’s everywhere in Costa Rica. I was excited about actually having hot water, as i feel this is usually a negative in foreign rental homes! The host are amazing and respond extremely fast with questions, accommodations and request. My only advice is they make sure their vendors are as on point as them! The ballon decor people wrote happy birthday when it was a bachelorette party,  which I specified.  The private chef people (flamingo foods) also totally dropped the ball and showed up to the wrong home with the wrong food,  but we were fully refunded. All in all, I highly recommend the home itself, it was a beauty! I also recommend getting a gulf cart to tour the area!

The place was beautiful and only a 2 minute walk to the beach. The local restaurants in town are great. Salty was amazing and very helpful.
