To promote energy conservation, the rental rate includes an average daily electricity allowance of 60 kWh per villa (180 kWh total for all three homes). Any usage exceeding this allowance will be charged at $0.90 per kWh at checkout. Most guests do not exceed this limit due to the natural cooling features of the homes.

OceanView Estate 30+ guests/3 Pools/Private Events - Villas for Rent in Esterillos Este, Puntarenas, Costa Rica

We had an amazing time here! Came with 11 people for my birthday and it was just perfect. Chloe was an incredible host and helped with all aspects of our plans from organizing tours to our private chef menus. The villas were lovely and location was amazing for a peaceful time in the gorgeous jungle.

I cannot say enough good things about this villa. Chloe was an exceptional host that went above what is required of any one host. We had a group of about 14 staying at the villas and they had a wonderful time. The homes themselves are beautifully decorated and come equipped with full kitchens, pools, and much more.  Chloe herself was kind enough to help arrange catered meals to the casas,  coordinate local activities and helped facilitate communication with locals businesses who did not speak English. For anyone looking for a beautiful home with a spectacular view, top-notch customer service, and a place the kick back and relax...Pura Vida Casas is it!

If you're looking for a wonderful spot for a family reunion or group vacation, I highly recommend Esterillos Este.  It is conveniently located about 20 minutes from Jaco and there are stores and restaurants about 5 minutes away.  The ranch is very secure and has two guards.  One of the greatest assets is the outdoor eating area that seats around 16 people.  We ate all our meals together and had great food and conversation.  There's a ton to do in the area and the host, Chloe helps arrange everything.

A wonderful experience! Chloe and her mother in law were great hosts, trying to make us feel at home and providing us with everything we needed to spend a wonderful weekend. We will be coming back! The house is amazing, very breezy, cool and fresh. The rooms are spacious and wonderfully decorated, everything is carefully detailed to make you feel at home. The neighborhood was quiet and safe, there's a security guard nearby. It was a great experience, thank you very much!
