Excellent location near the beach. For 7 people, it was very comfortable. Air conditioning in all bedrooms and the living room. Safe area, and getting there was very easy.

Incredible stay! The patio alone is worth it. The first morning we were there we woke up and saw 3 monkeys going across the trees! It’s right down the road from a quiet, beautiful beach. Many restaurants in the area to choose from. We also loved the spacious bedrooms. Highly recommend!

The house is very nice, and very functional. We were very comfortable. The patio is very nice and we were able to enjoy it. The only problem is that it was not as clean as I expected, the sheets were dirty, and in general it needed more cleaning. The rest was perfect.

Overall, we had a nice stay. It is a quick walk to a beautiful sandy beach, stores, and restaurants, and Potrero is less touristy than Flamingo. We liked the spacious rooms, shaded patio, strong A/C in each room, kitchen was minimal but functional, and the private parking spot. The hosts contacted us via WatsApp, and the concierge was great, thanks Álvaro! He helped us procure groceries and set up an in-home massage on the patio. A few notes: we struggled finding the location, and wrong code was given initially, so verify location with host after booking. There are no big lights on patio, bring a lantern. Bring your own conditioner, only shampoo and body wash is provided. For the kitchen, olive oil, salt and pepper is provided but no spices. Bring ear plugs if you are a light sleeper and plan to sleep in the room with sofa bed, as it does not close fully. The dogs next door can be loud, as well as wildlife. If you are sensitive to mold, it was a little musty but not bad.

The house is beautiful, comfortable, the surroundings are quiet, in short, I would return a thousand times. The house is perfectly designed and its architectural beauty blends with the vegetation in an unparalleled way. It has everything you need to cook, however it is so close to everything that it is easy to go out to eat well. The strategic location to go to Flamingo, Conchal and Las Catalinas.

We spent several wonderful days in this beautiful, modern, and luxurious house. Everything fully matched the descriptions and photos provided when booking the accommodation. The house is located in a stunning spot along the riverbank, surrounded by tropical plants and trees, and very close to the beautiful Potrero Beach (just a few hundred meters from the house). Relaxing on the lovely terrace and in the jacuzzi offers the opportunity to observe many birds and wildlife and to fully immerse yourself in the sounds of nature. Our hosts were extremely helpful and quick to communicate. Thank you once again for this beautiful place, and we hope to see you again!

Loved our time at Casa Mangrove! Jennifer’s team was exceptionally helpful in making this a wonderful week away! From days at the beach, excellent food at local restaurants and watching the monkeys and iguanas right in the yard. We loved this home and felt very comfortable and happy to have had our week here!

I would have expected a better maintained property. It needs some TLC, like paint and interior door knobs are barely hanging on. There was also an unpleasant smell most of our stay - which was bothersome. Our plumbing stopped working on the last day while we were packing up. And another day we lost electricity. But the host was prompt in resolving. The house is a great size, and beautiful. We saw monkeys outside which was nice. The backyard is like your own personal jungle, which was very cool. And you can’t beat its location, close to beaches, restaurants, and a grocery store.

This property was beautiful, very close to the beach and great restaurants nearby. We got to see some monkeys in the morning on the trees, which was very cool. Area felt very safe and it was exactly as advertised.

We really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful airbnb just steps from Potrero Beach! The airbnb was exactly as described in the photos - very beautiful, spacious, and furnished with everything we needed for our week! We loved the back patio overlooking a river. Loved the showers and spacious bedrooms that gave our travel party enough space to feel really comfortable throughout the trip. The ac units in every living space were great to come back to after a day in the tropical sun! Jennifer and her team were really responsive to all our questions and requests - we really appreciate it! The location was great - easy walk to everything we wanted to do. It was hard to find in the dark for our arrival though without an address- make sure you have a pin of the location and the names of the streets handy!
