⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this beach house. It strikes the perfect balance between rustic charm and a warm, homely feel, making it easy to relax from the moment we arrived. The setting is incredibly peaceful, with the house located right on the beach—waking up to the sound of the waves was truly special. The caretakers were exceptional: kind, attentive, and always available while still giving us complete privacy. The beach itself is swimmable and clean, which made it perfect for long morning swims and sunset walks. Another big plus was the location—there are several great restaurants nearby, so we had plenty of excellent dining options without needing to travel far. Overall, this place exceeded our expectations and felt like a true escape. We would happily return and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a serene, authentic beachside experience.

Arianne was a fantastic host. She shared helpful info about the villa, check in, and surrounding restaurants and activities. The villa itself was rustic and an authentic Costa Rica beach house - in the best ways. Perfect for our group of 6. Lots of bedrooms. Nice kitchen, and covered patio complete with hammocks. And the villa opens up right to the beach for easy access, ocean breeze and wave sounds all night long. And, Flora Alba and her husband, onsite caretakers, were the bonus I didn’t know I needed! Flora cooked amazing, fresh, Costa Rican meals for us - breakfast spread every morning, and dinner on the nights we requested. All in all, a fantastic trip and fantastic for lace to stay!

We loved where we stayed. The area was so peaceful and beautiful! We had everything we needed. The beach was right there and hearing the surf was very relaxing. We heard the Howler Monkeys every morning. Perfect alarm clock. When ever we had an issue (like a crab visiting us) Rinaldo was there on property to help. We were in walking distance of a great restaurant. We would recommend this place for family gatherings. I would love to go back and stay longer.

This place was amazing and right on the beach. Comfortably fit all of us. Close enough to town that you could walk or take a short uber. Arianne was incredibly responsive and went above and beyond to help us during our stay.

La casa es hermosa, súper cómoda. Las personas que se encargan del mantenimiento y recepción son amorosas y muy predispuestos. Lo único con lo que no contábamos es que la playa sería de arena casi negra, y eso hizo que no aprovechemos la casa como esperábamos porque buscábamos playas de aguas claras. La casa es súper recomendable para habitarla y disfrutarla en grupo. Muy funcional

I recently stayed at this beach home and had a pleasant experience. Despite being an older house, the place was nice and had a charming character. The view from the house was stunning, offering a nice view of the beach. It was also wonderful and convenient to have the housekeepers onsite. Flor Alba cooked a delicious meal for us and Reynaldo came to the rescue right away when we accidentally locked ourselves out.

What a perfect setting and place for a group! We loved the outdoor setting, where the beach meets the jungle! And it was at the end of the cove, for privacy-only a short walk to the nearest restaurants. Plenty of privacy for individuals in the group. The house caretakers were so helpful and kind. We loved the option of having meals cooked for us on site. The house hosts responded to my questions, prior to arrival, very quickly. I hope to go back again in the very near future!

Absolutely beautiful and stunning place! We loved having beach access right outside. Hearing the waves at night right outside our windows. Flor was so attentive and her food was absolutely amazing! We highly recommend ordering from her menu if you want amazing Costa Rican food. This was such a beautiful, unique stay.
