Pura Vida - Playa Grande (beach) - Houses for Rent in Cabo Velas, Playa Grande, Provincia de Guanacaste, Costa Rica

Great location and stay. Saw monkeys in the trees and had lots of iguanas visit us.

This cottage is charming, close to many beautiful beaches and delicious restaurants. The kitchen is well-equipped for cooking. The pool and garden are delightful.

Lovely place, full of green life. Very private, loved the small pool and back terrace. Squeaky clean.  Sebastian was very responsive and attentive to our needs, definitely would come back

Thanks so much Jose, We're going to change the coffee maker and take your good ideas into account. Pura Vida and I hope to see you again.

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.

Great retreat near the beach! Several restaurants around. The house itself has great vibes and a nice outdoor area with a pool!

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!!

Merveilleux séjour!! Réponse très rapide de la part de Sebastian. Tout était parfait. Il a une chambre indépendante qui rend l’endroit parfait pour loger avec des enfants. Plusieurs inclusions facilitant pour les familles (lit bébé, chaise haute, jouets) Accessoires de cuisine très complet. BBQ sur place. Tout se fait bien à distance de marche. Voisinage très tranquille. Nous avons adoré !!

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.

Great place, great location. Walkable to the beach and restaurants. Backyard oasis was beautiful and well maintained. Sebastian was friendly, proactive and responsive. Would stay again.

Sebastian was helpful right out of the gate and any questions or issues we had were answered in minutes. We loved playa grande and his home!! Very secluded and private but right in the middle of town, short walk to the beach. The pool and landscaping were awesome, everything was modern and super efficient. If you like laid back privacy and beautiful beaches with incredible surf/activities coupled with friendly locals this is a phenomenal option! Thank you Sebastian!

We are very happy that you felt our house as we always do. You are always welcome. All the best

We loved our stay. Sebastian was a great host, very responsive and helpful. The house was exactly like the photos, clean, stylish, and very comfortable. We loved how peaceful it was and spent most of our time relaxing in the beautiful outdoor space and by the pool. The location is perfect, just a short walk to the beach, restaurants and our favourite breakfast spot. We would definitely love to come back!

This is the second time we stayed at Sebastian’s and hope to come back next year. We love that it is not overpopulated and we can walk everywhere. There are delicious places to eat and many choice beach spots. I t takes about 20 minutes to walk on beach to water taxis taking you to Tamerindo. Water is just the right temp to cool off   Pura Vida

For a first time in Costa Rica we are very happy to have had great communication with Sebastian who guided us well to find the location of his accommodation and the attractions and services around. The maintenance of the accommodation is impeccable and we found everything we needed. A wonderful stay to be repeated! Thank you

Pour une première fois au Costa Rica nous sommes très heureux d’avoir eu de belles communications avec Sebastian qui nous a bien guider pour trouver l’emplacement de son logement et les attraits et services autour. L’entretien du logement est impeccable et on y a retrouvé tout ce dont nous avions besoin. Un merveilleux séjour à refaire! Merci

Sebastian was a great host and we loved our stay. Perfect for relaxing, letting the kids swim, getting to the beach, and as a home base to travel throughout Costa Rica. He was very communicative and everything was clean and well equipped. A great vacation for my family! Highly recommend.

We enjoyed our stay at Sebastian's house. The house has clean spaces full of tranquility and harmony (inside and outside). Close to beautiful beaches and delicious restaurants. Communication with Sebastian was always clear and friendly. Highly recommended.

Disfrutamos nuestra estancia en la casa de Sebastian. La casa tiene espacios limpios y llenos de tranquilidad y harmonìa (adentro y afuera). Queda cerca de playas hermosas y restaurantes deliciosos. La comunicación con Sebastian siempre fue clara y amable.  Super recomendado.

We had an amazing stay at Sebastian’s! This was my third time coming to playa grande but first time staying at Sebastian’s and I would definitely do it again. It felt private, the pool and other amenities were great and it was very clean. The backyard was beautiful and it was so nice to have the windows from the kitchen open up to it. The gated parking was also helpful and gave us peace of mind. The location was great too, close to a lot of the restaurants and walking distance to the beach. Sebastian was also very responsive and friendly. I’d highly recommend this spot for families or groups!

My wife, 2 kids and I loved our trip to Playa Grande and Sebastian's place. Perfect oasis. Will regresso!

We loved our time in Playa Grande!  Sebastian's home was exactly as described and pictured in the photos, actually even better with the fancy towel and toilet paper arrangements!  We loved the fresh greens and flowers that decorated the home.  Sebastian was extremely responsive with any questions I had.  We arrived in the pouring rain and had a bit of a hard time finding the place.  No fault to Sebastian as he sent very clear pictures of exactly where to turn, but I had a hard time seeing them on my phone and should have checked the laptop before I left.  I do think it said turn on a dirt road but it's actually paved now, so that was a bit of our confusion.  I didn't notice that there was no shampoo, condition, body wash included, so plan on that.  Easy walk to the beach and Beach Break (our fave breakfast spot!) is just a 2-3 minute walk to the left. The pool was clean and lovely!  Sebastian was an incredible host with a beautiful, memorable home.  Thank you, Sebastian!

Sebastian was a great host! Super communicative and available for all our questions before and during the trip. He made sure we had everything we needed and that as very available for questions (even had someone bring us matches to use the grill!). The house was a charming little bungalow in a great location just up the street from the great waves of Playa Grande. Super chill beach community. Fun cafes and coffee shop and surf shops in walking distance. The pool was an added bonus after a long day out ! The house doesn't have a living room but has a great outdoor patio  to relax. We saw iguana and a monkey in the trees and there is also a cute tree swing and some swimming toys.

Hi Roseann, vielen Dank für deine tollen Tipps. Wir werden das auf jeden Fall annehmen und freuen uns das ihr die Zeit mit uns genossen habt. Pura VIDA!!!

The house is very confortable.  We had a great time.

Sebastian house was simply amazing!! we absolutely loved it. The yard was magical with all the plant and the house is beautiful! we slept really well and we're confortable for our 5 days there. we had some iguana friends in the backyard that our girls really enjoyed and my mom even spotted a spider monkey! The kitchen was well equip to cook. we were sad to leave! Sebastian was quick to answer. overall we loved our stay and would come back anytime!! also the house is about a 12 minutes walk to the beach which was easy enough with our kids. the beach is huge there and really beautiful.

Das freut uns wirklich zu hören und ihr seid jederzeit wieder willkommen :)

We had a wonderful time at Playa grande. The setting was beautiful an easy walk to the beach. There were many great restaurants close by. The food was amazing. Whenever we had a question. Sebastian was always very responsive and helpful.

We had a lovely time here. The house is so great, it felt like home. Wished we could’ve stayed longer! The house is like the pictures but the atmosphere is even better! We also like to add that you can even see some wildlife in the garden. We had iguana’s visiting us everyday. Small and bigger ones. Beautiful to see. In the big tree there were even some parrots. 🦜 I would 100% recommend this airbnb!

Our stay here was great. The host was so responsive, kind and helpful. The space was great/perfect for families. Loved our time there!

I'd like to highlight two very important things during our stay at Sebastian's house. The hospitality, friendliness and constant contact with our host was something distinctive. The house is beautiful. It has a great vibe and a lot of good taste, as well as being fully equipped. Thanks Sebastian

Destaco dos cosas muy importantes durante nuestra estadía en la casa de Sebastian. La hospitalidad, amabilidad y el constante contacto con nuestro anfitrión fue algo distintivo. La casa es bella. Tiene toda la onda y muchísimo buen gusto además de estar totalmente equipada. Gracias Sebastian

We loved this place! This place is situated in a quieter town than Tamarindo (which is driveable in 30 minutes). There are lots of great restaurants within walking distance (5-10 min.), including a great Brewery. The beach is a 10-minute walk away, too. There's parking, a smallish pool perfect for the kids and to cool down in, and a comfortable living area outside. A mini-mart is a 2-minute walk away, perfect for grabbing essentials like eggs, bread, and beer. The host is fast at responding, helpful, and friendly. Would recommend!

We had a pleasant stay at Sébastien's. Very cozy house, well decorated and equipped for children. Sébastien is a very responsive and caring host. Thank you

Nous avons passé un séjour très agréable dans le logement de Sébastien. Maison très cocooning, bien décorée et équipée pour les enfants. Sébastien est un hôte très réactif et bienveillant. Merci

An ideal place to rest and relax in the pool, with all the necessary amenities to feel pure life.

Lugar ideal para el descanso y relajarse en la piscina, con todas las comodidades necesarias para sentirse pura vida.

Sebastian's place was great, tidy, and clean. The intimate courtyard with the pool was awesome. The host was very responsive and met our needs!

Le logement de Sebastian était très bien, bien rangé et propre. La cour intime avec la piscine était géniale. L’hôte était très réactif et a bien répondu à nos besoins!

Adorable cottage, beautifully furnished with stunning backyard and pool. Amazing surf beach, restaurants and market all within walking distance. The place was pristine and the host was incredibly responsive.

Excellent place!! Sebastian was super responsive and helpful! Great place for WFH, a lot of peace. Dogs enjoyed the house as well! Great beaches around  the area!

We are so happy to hear that. Thank so much for trusting us. 🙌

Our group of 6 had a lovely time at Sebastian's place. The house is even better than the pictures and very comfortable! The big terrace and the beautiful garden with the private pool were definitely the highlights of our stay. The check-in process was smooth and we had no issues getting to the house with waze. Sebastian was a very attentive host and he was always reachable when we needed him. We hope to come back if we're ever in the area.

Thanks Mariela, i am glad you enjoyed your stay. Hope to see you guys back soon

Sebastian’s home was the perfect place for our family on our recent trip to Costa Rica.  Location was AMAZING!  Playa Grande was a great beach and there were a variety of restaurants we could walk to for dinner each evening.  It truly was perfect.  Sebastian was very responsive and helpful.  The house was clean and comfortable and the pool was perfect after long days at the beach.  We would definitely go back!

Hi Emily, wir freuen uns das ihr Playa Grande genossen habt. Vielen Dank für alles.

Lovely and functional Pool is great and felt necessary at times in lieu of 95 degree F temperatures (AC inside worked well also). It seems houses in this area are not identified by an address and the street leading to the property is a dirt road, also making it a bit less intuitive to find.

Wir freuen uns Mr Trond das sie eine gute erste Airbnb Erfahrung hatten und werden an der Wegbeschreibung zum Haus natürlich arbeiten. Vielen Dank

Amazing stay! Would recommend. -Great location, close to the beach! We took a surfing lesson at Los Frijoles, was great! -Friendly people, felt very safe! -More beautiful than the pictures. -We loved Juan the pool boy, his girlfriend makes delicious skewers, right in front of the mini super, try them out. -A mini supermarket is very close in case you need anything. Sebastian is a very responsive host, ready to help at any time. The only downfall is the water pressure. Enjoy!

Thanks to Sebastian for always being on the lookout.

Gracias a Sebastián por estar siempre atento.

We stayed at Sebastian's place for surfing in Playa Grande for 1 week. The house has a great location in a quiet neighborhood. Although it has a construction site next door, this was not very noisy during our stay. The other houses are all quiet neighbors. The furnishings are stylish and practical. The pool is very nice and is often maintained. The garden is also great. It has a few minor things that didn't quite work yet, which Sebastian fixes very quickly and reliably. The water pressure in the pipes is very weak, especially with peak times. Outside, however, it has a garden hose, the pressure is better. We would recommend the place and would come back. It is only about a 7-minute walk to the beach of Playa Grande or by scooter for 2 minutes. Kitchen is very well equipped for CR conditions. Everything is new and very clean. DAnke

Wir waren 1 Woche in Sebastians Unterkunft zum Surfen in Playa Grande. Das Haus hat eine tolle Lage in einer ruhigen Nachbarschaft. Es hat zwar eine Baustelle nebenan, diese war aber bei unserem Aufenthalt nicht sehr laut. die anderen Häuser sind alle leise Nachbarn. Die Einrichtung ist stilvoll und praktisch. der Pool ist sehr schön und wird oft gepflegt. auch der Garten ist top. Es hat ein paar kleinere Dinge, die noch nicht ganz funktionierten, welche Sebastian aber sehr schnell und zuverlässig repariert. Der Wasserdruck in den Leitungen ist sehr schwach, vorallem bei Stosszeiten. Draussen hat es aber einen Gartenschlauch, da ist der Druck besser. Wir würden die Unterkunft empfehlen und würden wieder kommen. Es ist zum Strand von Playa Grande nur ca 7min zu Fuss oder mit dem Roller 2min. Die Küche ist für CR Verhältnisse sehr gut ausgestattet. Alles ist neu und sehr sauber. DAnke

Hi Ranin ich danke dir wirklich sehr gut dein nettes Feedback und wir werden an allem arbeiten. Liebe Grüße und bis bald

We had a great time in Playa Grande staying at this house. Great location! All the rooms were very clean, the kitchen area was well equipped. House interior design and decor made this place a perfect vacation spot. We really enjoyed the private pool area. Sebastian is a wonderful host, was very accommodating and very quick to respond to any questions we had. Highly recommend this place! Valeria & Oscar

Vielen Dank Valeria, wir freuen uns sehr dass ihr euren Aufenthalt si genossen habt und wir uns bald wieder sehen. Pura Vida!
