Great apartment in an amazing Playa Grande location! The area is developing quickly and has a great vibe, while still being an easy walk to the beach. The apartment was comfortable and well located, and the host was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout our stay. We had a great experience and would definitely recommend it!

Had a great stay with our 3 kids. There is plenty to do around the house. The pool was nice for the hot afternoons. Highly recommend surf lessons at Frijoles Locos. We tried many of the local restaurants and the food was amazing. Really enjoyed getting local fruit from the farmers market on the way into town…we made frequent trips to get mangoes. We had a rental car, but would be able to get around pretty easily without one if you took a shuttle to Playa Grande.

Our stay here was absolutely incredible! The house was beautiful, spotless, and had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable and relaxing. We especially loved the outdoor living space and the amazing pool — it truly made the experience feel like a tropical paradise. The location was perfect, within walking distance to both the beach and great restaurants. During our stay we even got to see monkeys and iguanas, which made the whole experience feel even more special and authentic to Costa Rica. Sebastian was an amazing host — friendly, easy to communicate with, and always quick to respond if we needed anything. We truly couldn’t recommend this place enough and will definitely be coming back!

Wonderful stay!! Very fast response from Sebastian. Everything was perfect. It has a separate bedroom, which makes it the perfect place to stay with kids. Several amenities to make it easier for families (cot, high chair, toys) Very well-stocked kitchen. BBQ on site. Everything is within walking distance. Very quiet neighbors. We loved it!!

Sebastian's home in Playa Grande is a gem! As soon as you pass through the gate, you feel as though you've stepped into a hidden oasis. Its Mediterranean meets Centroamericano, with thoughtful decor and beautiful gardens. You can tell the home is cared for and well maintained. The outdoor living space and pool are the perfect spots to relax after a long day. The beach is truly walkable, and there are several great places to eat nearby. My family had a great stay, and we appreciated how easy it was to communicate with Sebastian. Highly recommend.
