Cabo Matapalo Oceanfront Luxury House - Houses for Rent in Peninsula de Osa, Provincia de Puntarenas, Costa Rica

We enjoyed our stay. The house is nice, surrounded by a beautiful setting, and has excellent ventilation and good light, which makes it very pleasant. In addition, the layout of the bedrooms provides a lot of privacy, making it a very good option for both couples and groups. During our stay, there was some noise in the mornings from the neighboring property, mainly due to gardening work with a blower and trucks transporting material for a nearby construction site. We understand these are situations beyond the hosts' control, but we think it's helpful to mention it so future guests know what they might encounter. Upon arrival, the pool was a little dirty, but after reporting it, it was cleaned and improved considerably, which we appreciate. Overall, it was a pleasant experience, and we think the property has a lot of charm and great potential.

Disfrutamos nuestra estadía. La casa es linda, está rodeada de un entorno precioso y cuenta con una excelente ventilación y buena luminosidad, lo que la hace muy agradable. Además, la distribución de los dormitorios brinda bastante privacidad, por lo que es una muy buena opción tanto para parejas como para grupos. Durante nuestra estancia hubo algunos ruidos en las mañanas provenientes de la propiedad vecina, principalmente por trabajos de jardinería con una sopladora y por camiones que transportaban material para una construcción cercana. Entendemos que son situaciones ajenas a los anfitriones, pero creemos que es útil mencionarlo para que futuros huéspedes sepan qué podrían encontrar. Al llegar, la piscina se puso un poco sucia pero después de reportarlo fue limpiada y mejoró considerablemente, lo cual agradecemos. En general, fue una experiencia agradable y consideramos que la propiedad tiene mucho encanto y un gran potencial

I loved our stay here.  The setting is pretty unreal and so relaxing.  Tons of wildlife passes through the property on a daily basis.  We had two families stay here (7pp) and the layout worked well for us. I was concerned about not having AC but it wasn't an issue as the in-room fans were strong.  It took a little getting used to stiff mattresses, but after a few nights was ok.  It is a short walk to a beautiful beach and it was nice to come back to the small pool.  We hired a chef that house recommended for one meal and he was great.  We cooked most meals and found the kitchen easy to use, but we also went out a few nights at a nearby lodges (reservations are often required).  As others recommended, you need to load up on supplies in Puerto Jimenez.  We went back mid week to get some more stuff and it takes 30 mins to market.  They have an extra deep freezer so we loaded it with ice which was great for drinks and smoothies all week. We hope to return someday.

Always a beautiful dreamy stay in matapalo! This location is divine!

This place was extremely special. The location was beautiful and accommodations were unique and luxurious. We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to anyone!

I'm glad you'll enjoy the house. We put a lot of work into maintaining the standard of what is offered and the entire house in excellent condition. We look forward to seeing you again

Absolutely beautiful house and property. The view was amazing, and house had a lot of space . The Kitchen was very well equipped with everything we needed. Highly recommend this property.

We could not have had a more relaxing and enjoyable stay. The home is positively incredible, the location is perfect and the wildlife was abundant each day. The breeze from the water, as well as the noise of the waves on the rocks was so soothing. This is our third stay in the area and by far our favorite house! Isaac is a wonderful caretaker of the home, lovely and gentle spirited. He answered all of our questions. it was very hard to leave this gorgeous place. We could not be more grateful.

Ximena’s property was great for our family of 4. Incredible views and property close to surf. Kitchen had everything needed. House was cleaned every day and Isaac( the caretaker) and Ximena were very kind , responsive & honest. Thank you! Gracias & Pura Vida!

Thanks to Ximena and the on-site staff. The place is just amazing . It's a very high quality service. Thanks again to Ximena and the staff who allowed us to have a wonderful stay. Highly recommend this sweet spot . Thanks Guilhem Sarah , Paco and Luna

Merci à Ximena et au personnel présent sur place . L’endroit est tout simplement incroyable . C’est une prestation de très haute qualité . Merci encore à Ximena et au personnel qui nous ont permis de passer un séjour magnifique. Je recommande vivement cet endroit . Merci Guilhem Sarah , Paco et Luna

The road to access the premises is terrible; it requires a 4x4. Very beautiful environment, with lots of animal life and birds.

la route pour accéder aux lieux est terrible; ça nécessite un 4x4. Très belle  environnement, avec beaucoup de vie animale et d'oiseaux.

Such a gorgeous house with an incredible view. You can’t beat the location and our host was very responsive. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back!

We had a wonderful stay, we were in paradise. This house is a paradise on earth. Thank you. See you soon!

Nous avons passé un séjour merveilleux , nous étions au paradis . Cette maison est un paradis sur terre merci à vous à très vite !

We love this home and its beautiful surroundings.  It’s a great place to experience nature uninterrupted.  The caretakers are also really lovely people.  Thanks for renting this lovely gem.

Thank you Jennifer. We Will be glad to have you back in Osamarmaris. Please come back we Will be waiting for your next stay.

This is one of the most special places I’ve ever stayed. Beautiful property, Ximena and the staff were so helpful. I will 100% be coming back.

Serene and beautiful getaway with beautiful ocean views and refreshing plunge pool. Plentiful and diverse wildlife on the grounds - scarlet macaws, capuchins, Geoffroy's spider monkeys, agoutis, caracaras and numerous hawks. Phenomenal stay if you want to explore OSA peninsula off of the grid.

We love to visit this home each year. Perfect!!

Thank you Love for your comments about the house and your stay. Hope to see you back in Osamarmaris.

This place is beautiful! Both the location and the accommodations. It is as nice as the photos. Very cool, quiet, looks down on the water. Lots of wildlife and you can walk and surf at two different beaches. Our only issue was that instructions on getting there could have been more detailed. There is a pin on maps, but you don't necessarily have service the whole way. And there are no signs. So just make sure you get directions before you go Also note that the name on the gate is different than the name listed on airbnb. You should be aware that you need a vehicle with some clearance!! Don't try and drive this in a standard sedan type car. All in all, a great place. Would definitely go back. Thanks for a wonderful stay.

A spectacular property, a piece of paradise. We loved the place and really enjoyed the house. Excellent attention and service from both the host and concierge.

Una propiedad espectacular, un pedazo del paraíso. Nos encanto el sitio y disfrutamos mucho de la casa. Excelente la atención y el servicio tanto de la anfitriona como del concierge.

This is our second time to Ximenas house, we absolutely love the area, walking to Backwash and Pan Dulce for surfing is so easy. The setting is gorgeous, the wildlife is amazing. But it is remote, so come prepared with everything you need to cook, or ask for chef recommendations. The house works perfectly for 2 families. It is however getting a bit worn and some things needed repairing while we were there, the oven, etc but the caretaker on site was great. I highly recommend this place and we will hopefully be back next year.

We absolutely loved our stay. The house location perched up for amazing views and sunrise. We enjoyed our morning coffee outside while listening to all the wildlife and monkeys passing by. The staff were super sweet and very helpful. We can't wait to return.

We had a lovely stay in Casa Marmaris. We know the area well and love the location which is surrounded by nature, wildlife and the sea and Casa Marmaris has beautiful views and very easy access to the beaches. The house itself was perfect for us as 3 couples with the 3 lovely bedrooms, the kichen, dining and decking area are so perfectly done and we enjoyed having a pool to dip into when we got back from the sea! Overall, a perfect place - Isaac and Anais were very helpful - we loved our stay and definitely want to return next year! Thank you for a wonderful stay in your stunning home.

This is an amazing house in a remotely beautiful place.  There is a great surf break that you can reach from the front lawn with a walking trail down to the beach.  It’s quiet.  Wildlife is abundant.   On site host Issac is great.

This is a unique property. Beautifully furnished, in a very remote oceanfront location in the rain forest. The listing doesn’t make it clear that all three thatched buildings are the same property so the accommodation is huge. We were a family of 4 adults with a keen surfer amongst us. We wished we had more friends with us to share this incredible space. It’s well set up with everything you need for upto 10 people. We visited in the rainy season and had several days of rain so we experienced it as it’s worst (or best dependent on your view. ) The dirt road access needs a 4x4 in the rainy season. The caretaker was very accommodating and the daily cleaning was good. The surf was excellent and we saw several breed of monkeys, toucans, parrots and other wildlife without searching. If you like to be remote, are happy driving in dirt roads and appreciate the beauty of the rain forest this is a great place to stay. For a rainy season visit board games would be a great addition.

We have visited the area on several occasions but this was our first stay in Marmaris. The location is brutal and the house is wonderfully open and cozy. We spend a lot of time in the garden, from there you see surfing, whales, dolphins, macaws, toucans, monkeys, guatusas... The staff is friendly and helpful, and they have very good recommendations. We want to go back!

Hemos visitado la zona en varias ocasiones pero esta fue nuestra primer estadia en Marmaris. La ubicacion es brutal y la casa maravillosamente abierta y acogedora. Pasamos mucho tiempo en el jardin, desde ahi ves el surf, las ballenas, delfines, guacamayas, tucanes, monos, guatusas... El personal es amable y servicial, y tienen muy buenas recomendaciones. Ya queremos volver!

I have stayed at Ximena's home 3 times with different guest.  There is no doubt it is one of the best properties in Matapalo. However, this trip we were not so pleased with the cleaning services.  During check in the property manager did not even say hello to me or offer to help unload the cars.  He pointed to the written instructions on the table and barely mutter a word.  Our group speaks English and Spanish so it was not a language barrier.  He also argued with my friend the maids showed up before 7 AM and one day even came at 5:48 AM.  And on our day of check out they started a construction project behind the master bedroom at 6 AM. One of the showers was not working the entire trip. and every night the gates were left open.  The  only person I could talk to about the house and issues that were going on were some surfer kids that hung around.  It took me until after we left the property to figure who was the owner and who was the property manager.  The communication could have been better for sure. Thanks for the stay.

We at Osa Marmaris are really sorry for the inconvenience. We always try our hardest to make our guest’s stay enjoyable and relaxing. This time there were some special circumstances out of our control but as always the feedback is greatly appreciated and we will make sure it doesn’t happen again. Hope to see you again soon.

Amazing and magical place. Ximena is a great Host. Fully recommended.

Increíble y magico lugar. Ximena es una excelente Host. Totalmente recomendado.

This house is amazing. The whole property is so stunning, you can't beat the location, especially if you surf. We saw so much wildlife just sitting on the verandah.  Comfortable beds and a good kitchen. Just keep in mind Puerto Jimenez town and shops are 45 minutes away and the house does not have any basic supplies so make sure you get everything you need for meal prep. We had the chef cook for us also and it was delicious, highly recommend. We would 100% stay here again.

Another wonderful trip to Marmaris! Highly recommended

Thank you Craig. Hope to have you and your lovely family back in Marmaris soon.

A little slice of heaven on the Osa! This house is eco-luxury at its finest with the open-air design. The sprawling layout of the house is perfect for a large party to have plenty of privacy and space to relax. The animals, the view and the surf make this place a one of kind vacation.

Want to keep this place in secret to come back next time.))) beautifull place

This house was beyond all expectations, the pictures do not do it justice. The caretaker was beyond our expectations as was the whole property and location. Both private and with amazing views you can’t beat this place. A word of advice: drive in a large tire’d 4x4 vehicle, the roads leading to this part of the peninsula are very rough

It is the best place in the world, its most wonderful place in earth and in Costa Rica. The place is spectacular, the service is incredible, it will always be the best vacation destination. The contact with nature is REAL, the House is designed to respect the environment. Keylor, Jeanete are super friendly and respectful people, they always helped us. Chef Rafa is top notch with amazing humility Ximena is undoubtedly an excellent owner and protects nature for the respect we could see at her house My 5 year old son had one of the best experiences of his life he had direct contact with the environment and got to know a paradise through this home. We will definitely be back every year

Es el mejor lugar del mundo, its the most wonderful place in earth and in Costa Rica. El lugar es espectacular, el trato es increíble, será por siempre el mejor destino para vacacionar. El contacto con la naturaleza es REAL, la Casa está diseñada para respetar el medio ambiente. Keylor, Jeanete son seres super amables y respetuosos, nos ayudaron siempre. El chef Rafa es de primer nivel y con una humildad increíble Ximena es sin duda una excelente dueña y proteje la naturaleza por el respeto que pudimos ver en su casa Mi hijo de 5 años vivió una de las mejores experiencias de su vida tuvo contacto directo con el medio ambiente y conoció un paraíso a través de este hogar. Sin duda volveremos cada año

Ximena’s home is beautiful and well equipped for a relaxing stay listening to the ocean waves and feeling the jungle breeze.  The caretakers and the chef were amazing.  There is access to a lovely beach just a few minutes away.  We will definitely be back.

Great place to stay. Everything was accurate on description. They are putting in new bridges but would still recommend a 4x4 to get there.

The caretakers were lovely and helpful. The location is off the grid and there was wildlife everywhere. They are trying to work with the neighbor to see if they can change the hour that the generator runs since it is close to the guests rooms and they seemed to need it even on sunny days. Aside from that, we had the best time and love the property.

This was our second time at this house. It is magical. The staff are super helpful. We are already talking about coming back next year. We are grateful for such a great trip!

Great place! Amazing for families and beautiful property.

This place is amazing! If you want to enjoy some luxury while in Costa Rica and be remote at the same time, this is it. You will also see much wildlife, including macaws and different types of monkeys right from the property. There is plenty of room here for a big family and privacy. The views are amazing and there is peace and quiet. All buildings and areas are clean and, as long as you bring the food, everything you need is here. The host has great communication, the caretaker will take great care of your needs and the housekeeper gets everything clean quickly. You will not be disappointed.

Nice place at the very south tip of Osa peninsula. Beautiful views from the living room and a nice little pool. Access to the beach would be the icing on the cake. Still a very beautiful place, remote and peaceful place. The many animals on the property were a huge plus.

Amazing place... perhaps the best on the Osa. Style and luxury in a such a beautiful setting! If you can afford it, THIS IS THE SPOT. If you are on a budget, try Colorado Chris. He's got options on the mountain side of the road with the same great access to backwash bay.

Amazing views, nice and secluded, one with nature!

Ximena was so quick to respond and instructions were perfect!

This is the place to be to know how special and precious the Osa Matapalo area is.   Imagine sipping coffee looking out toward the bay and to see a troupe of spider or capuchin monkeys migrate through the tree canopy in front of your view - Magical.  You will see (and definitely hear) howler monkeys and scarlett macaws.  While in the area, you must visit the Piro Research Station that is part of the Osa Conservation program.  It is only 20-30 minutes down the main road and has the best trails through primary forest we experienced anywhere.  Just show up (there is a gate with a welcome sign).  Cost is only $15.  Look them up on the web.  For birders visiting the house, park on the road just past the river just past the school on the main road.  The farmer built gates to allow birders access.  You will cross off many birds on your list.

This place is my paradise. Absolutely amazing location and accommodations. This house fit our 2 families and we could have comfortably fit another. I would rent this house over, again and again. Worth the money to have a pool and be in this exact location.

Cabo Matapalo is a fantastic place to stay. An amazing paradise in the middle of nature and immediate on the beach with very high surfers delight. Isaac was very friendly to help you when you ask for. The house gives you a free feeling. Thank you so much Ximena for giving us this ones of a lifetime experience.

Thank you Jan. It was great to have you and your family in Osamarmaris. Hope you can return!!!!
