Private Pool Villa • Near El Coco & Playa Hermosa - Houses for Rent in Sardinal, Guanacaste Province, Costa Rica

We absolutely loved our stay at Juan’s place! Both him and Amanda were very responsive and kind. The place was very comfortable, clean, and beautiful, felt right at home. They made instructions super easy as well. The pool and grill area are perfect. And kitchen is well equipped. Highly recommend!!!

When you arrive at this house, you don't want to go anywhere else. It's a little paradise. The house has everything you imagine you need. We were surprised how well equipped it was. Very safe. We felt at ease at all times. The pool is a complete plus. Its size is perfect for large groups. Definitely recommended.

Cuando llegas a esta casa ya no quieres salir a ningún otro lado, es un pequeño paraíso. Todo lo que te imaginas necesitar la casa lo tiene, nos sorprendió lo bien equipada que estaba. Muy segura, nos sentimos tranquilas en todo momento. La piscina es un plus completo, su tamaño es perfecto para grupos grandes. Sin duda alguna recomendada.

Extremely satisfied with everything! From the security of the property all the way down to the service from the host. The house is very well taken care of. Great space. Amazing pool and outdoor area. Very well equipped for anyone staying there. Outdoor entertainment, washer, dryer, beach chairs, coolers. Spacious rooms with great closet space. Bathrooms were beautiful and nicely stocked. Its located on a very quiet and peaceful street but not far from restaurants and markets. Very easy to get around. Juan and Amanda were amazing hosts! The best that I have come across. They made sure my Family and I were settled in and gave great recommendations. Amazing communication! I will recommend this house to anyone staying in this area. 10 out of 10 stars! Thank you Juan and Amanda for everything. We even got a surprise visit from 3 different iguanas! This experience will live forever with my Family and I. It was perfect! We will definitely be back in the future! Pura Vida!

This place was excellent—you’re in your own private compound on the edge of a small rural Costa Rican town. It offers an authentic taste of local life, with motorbikes zipping by and locals gathering at nearby shops and food spots. The house felt very safe and was well-equipped, with a great pool, a karaoke speaker, multiple TVs with cable, board games, and a nice kitchen for cooking your own meals. The backyard was a highlight, featuring a resident iguana you’d see almost daily, and even a little lizard inside the apartment making his signature kissing sounds. A fun and memorable stay that truly captures the Costa Rican experience.

Great place to stay, near to the airport, near to beautiful beaches, the Host was very responsive and proactive. Nice people and the place was amazing, just like the pics.

We stayed here for 3 nights, as it was an ideal location to go to La Leona waterfalls, Diamonte Eco Adventure Park, Playa Coco and the airport.  The pool and outdoor kitchen is lovely.  It is very modern and Juan and Amanda were great hosts!

Our family had a wonderful stay! The location is more local than touristy, which we really appreciated. The backyard pool, grilling and dining area were one of our favorite features of the property, as well as being able to see the local birds, frogs, iguanas, etc. The hosts were very communicative and quick to respond. Beds were comfortable and the entire house was extremely well stocked. Property was easy to access and being gated added an extra sense of security. We do wish the photos made it clearer that all bedrooms are upstairs, as that info may be helpful for guests traveling with older family members. On a personal note, offering a local chef providing authentic Costa Rican meals would have been a great option.

What a great family stay at Casa de Amanda and Juan! Communication with them was excellent. And what can I say about the recommendations for activities in the area and for the rest of our trip. They were quick to respond when we had any questions. The back yard of the house was greatly appreciated by the whole family. We felt safe throughout our stay here. We would recommend it without hesitation.

Quel beau séjour en famille dans la Casa de Amanda et Juan! La communication avec eux étaient excellentes. Et que dire des recommandations d’activités dans les alentours et pour la suite de notre voyage. Ils répondaient rapidement lorsque nous avions des questions. La cours arrière de la maison a été grandement apprécié par toute la famille. Nous nous sommes sentis en sécurité tout au long de notre séjour à cet endroit. Nous recommandons sans hésiter.

I spent hours researching the best place for my family to stay for one week in Guanacaste, and I'm thrilled to have found and stayed in Juan and Amanda's place in Sardinal. The home itself is BEAUTIFUL and had everything we could possibly need to make the stay comfortable and enjoyable. The pool and outdoor kitchen were particular highlights. It was a perfect place to stay for our family of five. Everything was as the photos suggested. For us, the location was great; easy access to the airport and Playas del Coco and Playa Hermosa. It was also a good starting point for day trips such as Rincón de la Vieja. Bijagua de Upala and Llanos de Córtes. Juan and Amanda also gave fantastic recommendations for beaches and restaurants to visit. We appreciated being a bit off of the tourist route and having the opportunity to see the real Costa Rican lifestyle rather than just tourist traps. Juan and Amanda are super responsive hosts and think of small details that make a stay extra nice.

Great stay! Appreciated that the home was so clean and as expected. Very kind and accommodating hosts!

The house was very nice and clean! There were some ants in the kitchen (probably were attracted to the fresh fruit that was left) however bugs are to be expected when staying in Costa Rica. Juan was very nice and responsive and gave a lot of great recommendations! Traffic can be very troublesome at certain times taking up to an hour to get to the airport. There is only one main road to get to and from Liberia which can create standstill traffic and take a long time just to go a few miles! Overall it was a great stay and we had a lot of fun! Thank you Juan!

We enjoyed our stay and were very impressed with this listing! The space was clean, stylish, and well-appointed. Sardinal was a sweet place to spend some days with lots of restaurant options and nearby activities. Juan and Amanda were very responsive with suggestions and tips! Loved our stay here!! Would return!

Check in was very easy, the place was exactly like photos. We had a few little things that occurred throughout the week, but Juan contacted his property manager who was quick to respond and fix the issue. 
The shower in upstairs bathroom has fluctuating water pressure but we made due. We highly recommend this place, it's close to several beaches and the locals in the area are so kind.

Amazing host, very well at communicating. Place was very nice and well maintained. Host has everything you need in the house. Many beaches close by, food places close by. Quiet neighbourhood and felt very safe.

Juan's Listing was really lovely!! We needed a place to stay that was semi close to the airport since we got in later in the evening. We only stayed a night because we were making our way south, but the house was truly really very lovely. The pool area was so nice and everything was very clean. We were able to walk to a couple of restaurants close by and truly enjoyed our stay.

The house itself looks nice at first glance, and the room is visually appealing. However, the location is quite remote and much farther from the beach than expected. The surrounding area does not feel very pleasant or well-maintained. At night, there was significant noise that sounded like a nearby nightclub or loud venue, which made it difficult to rest. While the room appears clean overall, the attention to detail in terms of hygiene could be improved. Overall, the property has potential, but the location, noise level, and cleanliness details affected our experience.

Thank you for your detailed feedback on your stay at our home. We are glad you found the house itself and the room visually appealing at first glance. We are sorry to hear that the location felt remote and was further from the beach than you anticipated. We try to be as accurate as possible in our listing description regarding the location and surrounding area, and we will review our listing details to ensure clarity for future guests. Regarding the noise, we sincerely apologize for the disruption to your sleep. Your stay coincided with a local holiday festival , an annual event that brought temporary, unusual noise levels to the area. We understand how frustrating this is and will update our listing to better warn future guests about potential seasonal events.  Furthermore, we take all feedback regarding hygiene seriously and regret that the attention to detail in cleanliness did not meet your expectations. Our cleaning team has been informed, and we are implementing additional checks to improve our standards. We appreciate you highlighting the potential of our property and for giving us the opportunity to improve. We value your business and wish we could have provided a better experience for you.

Great place in Sardinal next to the best restaurant in town!

We had a beautiful experience, the house and its pool area are very well equipped to spend a pleasant stay without missing anything. We will definitely return. And we highly recommend it!

Tuvimos una experiencia lindisima, la casa y su area de piscina están muy bien equipadas para pasar una estancia placentera sin que falte Nanda ..sin duda volveremos . Y lo súper recomendamos !.

The perfect stay for a family trip! This house has the perfect space for adults and kids it has everything you’ll ever need host is very responsive will definitely recommend

This place was perfect as a stopping point close to the airport. It was very nicely kept and it was super cute and kept up very nicely. The pool was lovely and we loved the outdoor kitchen too. It was probably the nicest home in Sardinal! We didn’t have a car though, and there wasn’t a whole lot to do. We did go to Donde Mario to eat at least 3 times, which was a good place to eat. The owner was also very responsive to any questions. There was a lot of security on the property so we felt safe as well.

The house was very nice and is ideal for 6 or even 8 people. Very clean and comfortable. The backyard was great with a pool and large outdoor kitchen. Convenient to the airport.

Absolutely loved this place Extremely clean host was amazing Can’t wait to book back

A well-located and definitely impeccable place.  We have nothing but gratitude for the hosts

Un lugar bien ubicado y definitivamente impecable.  No tenemos más que agradecimiento con los anfitriones

Love this home ! Very nice & clean. Very friendly and helpful host.

We spent 4 days at the house. The experience was very, very good. Juan and Amanda behaved very well. The house is beautiful, comfortable, modern and just like the photos. The cleanliness of the place is impeccable. Super comfortable beds, perfect armchairs, large and spacious dining areas, great grill area. AC in all rooms, the internet works very well, the kitchen and grill area equipment is top notch, nothing is needed, everything you need is there. The place is strategically close to Liberia and the Airport for business and very touristy beaches such as El Coco and Hermosa 15 minutes away or more private beaches in the Gulf of Papagayo 20-30 minutes away. The house is 5 minutes from Sardinal, the town has everything you need, supermarkets, pharmacy, restaurants, bakery. We felt right at home the whole stay. We will return as soon as possible. If you are looking for a place to share with loved ones and feel at home, this is the accommodation you are looking for.

Estuvimos 4 dias en la casa. La experiencia fue muy muy buena. Juan y Amanda se portaron super bien. La casa es preciosa, comoda, moderna y justo como las fotos. La limpieza del lugar es impecable. Camas super comodas, sillones perfectos, areas grandes y espaciosas de comedor, area de parrilla genial. AC en todos los recintos, el internet funciona muy bien, el equipamiento de la cocina y de la zona de parrilla es de otro nivel, no se necesita nada, todo lo necesario esta ahi. El lugar esta estrategicamente cerca de Liberia y el Aeropuerto por negocios y de playas muy turisticas como El Coco y Hermosa a 15 minutos o playas mas privadas en el Golfo de Papagayo a 20-30 minutos. La casa esta a 5 minutos de Sardinal, el pueblo tiene todo lo necesario, supermecados, farmacia, restaurantes, panaderia. Nos sentimos como en casa toda la estadia. Volveremos en cuanto sea posible, si buscas un lugar para compartir con seres queridos estando como en casa, este es el alojamiento que buscas.

The house is simply beautiful, fully equipped, and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The house is located in a quiet area, which provides a lot of tranquility and privacy. Without a doubt, this is one of the best Airbnbs we've stayed at. The outdoor area is similar to a resort with a pool, BBQ, and dining area. The area invites you to always want to be outside and spend more time outdoors than inside the house. Without a doubt, we will return to this incredible place

Great place, Great communication, and the location was perfect for our trip. 10/10

The place was amazing! Our favorite area of the house was the pool! The house was beautiful and had all the amenities that we need to make ourselves meals! And it was and easy 20 minute drive to the beach! Would definitely recommend and stay here again!

Beautiful and perfectly maintained home.  loved the design and it was spotless! We had a few questions and the hosts were super helpful and quick to respond.  we didn't do our research agreed of time and didn't realize there wasn't much to do in the area,  but not their fault (though it was convenient to the airport). appreciate Juan and Amanda sharing their beautiful home with us.!

Juan and Amanda were very good , very good communication and always attentive to what we occupied, the house is fully equipped and very clean. We recommend this Airbnb.

Juan y Amanda fueron muy buenos , muy buena comunicación y siempre atentos a lo que ocupábamos, la casa está completamente equipada y muy limpia. Recomendamos este Airbnb.

Loved this property! Looks just like the photos, Host was very responsive and helpful. The home offered a-lot of amenities especially in kitchen appliances. Directions were very clear. I also felt safe as the property is gated!

Fabulous accommodation, the house is impeccable in terms of cleanliness and amenities, it has everything you need and more, very safe too. An excellent place to stay as a family, very quiet and private, the terrace area is beautiful and the pool is very refreshing, very close to the main supermarkets, I highly recommend it and we are excited to return. The hosts are very friendly and always attentive.

Fabuloso alojamiento, la casa impecable en cuanto a limpieza y comodidades tiene todo lo que necesitas y mucho más, muy segura también. Excelente lugar para hospedarse en familia, muy tranquilo y privado, la zona de terraza es hermosa y la piscina muy refrescante, muy cerca de los principales supermercados, la súper recomiendo y emocionados de volver. los anfitriones muy amables y siempre pendientes.

This is the perfect place to stay Each room has AC slit unit . The yard is amazing with a full outdoor kitchen with TV. The yard also has dinning area The living room space is great , The indoor door kitchen is an open space with a dinning room The bathrooms area clean and spacious If you are looking in this area this is the place to stay Clean ,,modern, and spacious , The host are very helpful and responded all questions with in 2 minutes ,

The house is beautiful and very comfortable. We loved how it was decorated, it had all kinds of kitchen appliances and utensils (that we didn’t need but appreciated the thought behind providing them), and an espresso machine which we loved! The yard is amazing too - the pool and the bbq area were great although we were out so much, we couldn’t enjoy them much. The house is a 15-20 minute drive to the nearest beach, there are a couple of small grocery stores around, and the restaurant that is in a walking distance was pretty good. There is an air conditioner in every room, two downstairs! The hosts thought of pretty much anything you may need - we could have comfortably stayed much longer. I would highly recommend the house!

Such a beautiful Airbnb! Everything was clean and well taken care of and looked just like the photos. There are neighbors right next to this property that play music a bit loudly and dogs that bark outside so if you have small kids  or you have trouble with noise just bring a sound machine to sleep just in case! Otherwise it was such a beautiful stay in an amazing location!

Overall, our stay was great. It’s important to know what you are looking for while in Costa Rica. If you want a more private and quiet experience while still being close enough to some of the popular areas, this was great. However, if you want something that is more catered for tourists, like guided activities and all inclusives or anything like that, you might want to stay somewhere like Playa Flamingo or one of the other beach areas. Juan and Amanda were great hosts, very communicative and they had their property manager clean up the pool area a couple of times after the rain, which was considerate of them. Also, our favorite restaurant we went to during our stay was Hacienda Blu Beach Lounge. You definitely have to go if you stay at Casa Maraya!

Beautiful Airbnb with a wonderful pool. Stayed one night before returning to airport with our 2 kids. They loved the pool and the swing was a hit. Beautiful outdoor bar and cooking area with alot of seating. Wish we had time to use it. Short drive to coco beach.

We loved this place - 7 of us in total of all ages from 8 years old. The pool was fantastic and the outside kitchen area was where we spent so much of our time. Our little boy loved the swing! It's a great location not far from the airport or many other tourist hot spots. Very quiet, beautiful town centre with lovely people. The pictures don't do the house justice it was pristine, beds super comfortable, very good AC. It was our first stop in Costa Rica and it didn't disappoint after a long trip over from London. Thanks!!

Great place to stay when doing the beach part of Costa Rica. Quiet little town outside the busy beach towns. Quick trip to multiple beaches in 15 min or less.

You know how Airbnb pictures can look great but don't match the actual setting?  This is NOT one of those.  The home is as lovely, spacious, well appointed, modern, and comfortable as it appears.  Book it!

We loved everything about our visit to Costa Rica especially this house!  It looks just like the photos. The location was great and made driving to multiple beaches and restaurants relatively convenient. The hosts were very responsive and helpful. The backyard pool area was fantastic and I felt as if we had our own private resort without the beach. My family will definitely plan to come back in the future!

We absolutely loved everything about our stay! The host was excellent – very communicative and responsive. All directions were clear, and the Airbnb was exactly as described. The backyard was beautiful, and it’s clear a lot of thought went into creating such a private and clean space. We truly enjoyed every aspect of this place and would highly recommend it!

Impeccable accommodation. Everything is there. Beautiful pool and plenty of amenities . Comfortable beds. Recommended

Logement impeccable . Tout y est . Piscine magnifique et beaucoup de commodité . Lits confortables . À recommander

Overall a decent place to stay in Sardinal. Our hosts were very communicative and helpful with our requests for cleaning supplies and new bedding. The man that maintains the property came once to clean the pool. That said, I wasn't very happy about the very strong smell of manure from the nearby cow farms. The tree in the backyard necessitates daily pool cleaning as it looked pretty dirty with leaves, sticks, and bugs by the time we left and we hadn't used it for 2 days. The interior of the home is exactly as pictured  and we had no issues with the AC or Wifi. You'll definitely need a truck to navigate the roads in and out of Sardinal.

Thank you for your feedback and for choosing to stay with us. I'm delighted to read everything ran smoothly during your stay, that you found the house as pictured and felt helped by us in regards to your needs. I'm sorry to hear that on the last day of your stay the swimming pool cleanliness was not up to your standard and wished we would of heard from you in this regard in a timely manner so we could have sent our caretaker to clean it up for you in order to enjoy it prior to leaving, also a net to remove the leaves is left very accesible to all of our guests if they wish to use it at anytime during their stay. In regards to needing a truck to navigate in and out of Sardinal, I am a little uncertain of what area you are referring to as all roads that lead to Casa Maraya are paved roads wether it’s from airport or beaches nearby and lastly cow smell, we are surrounded by farms in all Guanacaste region it is very possible that with the high winds of certain months the smell would have occur occasionally. Thank you again for your feedback as we're always striving to improve our guest experience. Best wishes! Juan & Amanda

Our stay at this Airbnb was just wonderful! From the moment of our arrival, we felt right at home. The host was incredibly hospitable, making sure we had everything we needed and quickly answering any questions. The place itself was perfect for our family. Spacious, clean and well equipped, it had all the comforts to make our stay comfortable and relaxing. The decor was cozy and stylish, making every moment inside special outside. The location was ideal, close to several local attractions, restaurants, and stores. This allowed us to explore the area easily and enjoy the best the destination has to offer.

Nuestra estancia en este Airbnb fue simplemente maravillosa! Desde el momento de nuestra llegada, nos sentimos como en casa. El anfitrión fue increíblemente hospitalario, asegurándose de que teníamos todo lo que necesitábamos y respondiendo rápidamente a cualquier pregunta. El alojamiento en sí fue perfecto para nuestra familia. Espacioso, limpio y bien equipado, tenía todas las comodidades para hacer nuestra estancia cómoda y relajante. La decoración era acogedora y con estilo, haciendo que cada momento dentro fuera especial. La ubicación era ideal, cerca de varias atracciones locales, restaurantes y tiendas. Esto nos permitió explorar la zona fácilmente y disfrutar de lo mejor que ofrece el destino.

Juan and Amanda gave some good suggestions , such as Coco Beach and Donde Mario’s Restaurant.  Food was amazing there. Loved all the thoughtful touches such as salt by the tub, bowl full of fruit etc. Everyone loved the pool especially on the last night.  Plenty of room for 6 adults.  All of the appliances are top notch. Juan and Amanda are very responsive and eager to share suggestions. Really enjoyed the home. Thank you!

Excellent hospitality; the small details make the difference! We enjoyed it very well! Hailey recommended

We really enjoyed our stay. Sardinal is off the usual tourist track but more authentic town life for the local population. We really did not spend much time there as we were off doing daily excursions in other parts of Guanacaste. The house is nice and just as it looks. The only down side is that it’s not as remote as I expected with neighbors houses right on the other side of a wall. Also we were unprepared for the noise of the local holiday festivities. There was loud music and M-80s being blasted late at night and early morning. We found out later that the house is only about an 1/8th of a mile from the rodeo arena which explains all the noise. We did get used to the noise. We weren’t able to enjoy the pool as the weather was very unusual with torrential rai two afternoons/evenings while we were there. The rain was kind of amazing, though. I recommend the house if you want to get off the beaten path. It is also pretty conveniently located for getting to and from the Liberia airport.

Casa Maraya is beautifully curated and we loved our stay there: especially the backyard oasis with wonderful pool and outdoor kitchen! Surrounded by beautiful country and horse properties this clean and comfortable home provided us with much comfort and sunny pool time! Kitchen was a pleasure to cook in!

Casa Maraya was amazing! Clear instructions let us have a seamless check-in experience. The house itself was spotless. Amazing kitchen and a beautiful family room. We all loved the pool in the backyard and the beautiful tree swing. Lastly, Juan and Amanda were always responsive and provided great local recommendations. I only wish there were fewer ants and insects in the backyard/pool area 😂 but that’s the price of an open area in Costa Rica. Did not deter us at all from spending our afternoons outside.

OMGW! The house is more than perfect! Absolute comfort! From the bath to the sheet everything is quality and well-equipped!!

Wow wow ! La maison est plus que parfaite ! Le confort absolu ! Du bain jusqu’au drap tout est de qualité et bien équipé!!

The outdoor area is excellent, nothing is missing, the best I've seen. Juan and Amanda were always available and supported us with everything. The house is excellent for a family as it has 3 bedrooms and a bathroom on top.

El área exterior es excelente, no le falta nada, de las mejores que he visto. Juan y Amanda siempre estuvieron al pendiente y nos apoyaron con todo. La casa es excelente para una familia ya que cuenta con 3 habitaciones y un baño en la parte superior.

Juan’s place was nice. The pool was nice. The neighbors did play music well into the night. And there was people hanging out on the side of the road that is a normal occurrence. The yard was private. The house was close to town. Overall great safe stay.

Our stay, without being exaggerated was excellent, Juan and Amanda were always very friendly and attentive. The house is simply perfect for a family or group of friends, it has a wide variety of board games and the pool area and BBQ is quite spacious and cool so you can have a very nice time. Anyway, a place I recommend 100%

Nuestra estancia, sin llegar a exagerar estuvo excelente, Juan y Amanda fueron muy cordiales y atentos siempre. La casa es simplemente perfecta para una familia o grupo de amigos, tiene granvariedad de juegos de mesa y el área de piscina y BBQ es bastante amplia y fresca por lo que puedes pasar un rato muy agradable. En fin, un lugar que recomiendo 100%

A very nice house, quite safe and with all amenities. 100% recommended and annotados for my future trips to the area!

Una casa muy bonita, bastante segura y con todas las comodidades. Recomendados al 100% y anotados para mis futuros viajes a la zona!

Very nice house just as shown in pictures!! Favorite parta was the back yard so pretty!! I would definitely recommend to stay here!!

We had an amazing experience, the house is just beautiful. Was very nice decorated and included just about everything we needed. Our hosts were very responsive when we had questions. Thank you!

Amanda  and Juan's house is spectacular.  It's safe and in a quiet spot. In Sardjnal, two minutes by car there are supermarkets and local restaurants, and a few minutes further away but always very close is El Coco and Playa Hermosa, which have everything, supermarkets and restaurants of local and international food. The house is full of amenities, super equipped kitchen. The outdoor area, with the pool and BBQ area, is amazing and has everything to spend your vacation days enjoying with family as we did or with a group of friends. You won't regret renting this house.

La casa de Amanda  y Juan es espectacular.  Es segura y en un lugar tranquilo. En Sardjnal, a dos minutos en carro hay supermercados y restaurantes locales, y unos minutos más lejos pero siempre muy cerca está El Coco y Playa Hermosa, que tienen todo, supermercados y restaurantes de comida local e internacional. La casa está llena de comodidades, cocina súper equipada. La zona exterior, con la piscina y la zona de BBQ, es increíble y tiene todo para pasarse los días de vacaciones disfrutando en familia como lo hicimos o con un grupo de amigos. No lamentarás rentar esta casa.

Juan and Amanda were propmt in answer our questions and provided great recommendations. The place was clean and the pictures accurately described the price. Will certainly recommend this place to anyone.

The house was as beautiful as seen in the photos. The house was a bit hard to find but once we were there , the check in was easy. Great responsive hosts throughout the entire stay .

We had a wonderful stay. The place is just like the picture just better! I would definitely stay again on my next visit to Sardinal. Thanks for having us!

This house was exactly like the pictures! My boyfriend and I loved the outdoor sitting area! The outdoor shower was super nice to have to clean off your feet from the sand. The beds were super comfortable, lots of closet place for your clothes and bags. I absolutely loved the jet bathtub with the color changing lights! :) Juan and Amanda were so helpful and responsive when it came to places to eat around there and in Coco. Definitely a great place to stay, we love how close it was to the airport and to Coco and Playa Hermosa! Would definitely recommend staying here! :)

A beautiful, super comfortable and safe house. Excellent for relaxing and spending several nights. The pool is very cute and always clean.

Juan and Amanda are your ideal hosts! Responsive, kind and professional. They made our stay in costa rica super special

The home is stunning. Although I didn’t take advantage of the outdoor kitchen, it is a unique amenity great for family gatherings. The Bluetooth audio system by the pool was an especially nice touch. Bed extremely comfortable as were all of the living areas. Very responsive host.

Wowww it was beautiful as a place I would go back there no problem! All were perfect!

Wowww c’était magnifique comme endroit j’y retournerais sans problème! Toutes étaient parfait!

Juan’s place was AMAZING !!!! When driving up it looks like the you’re in the middle of the local town but when you walk inside it’s beautiful and modern! The amenities were up to date and clean . I loved the bed very comfy but the pillows in the master was a little stiff. Having the option to cook breakfast outside was awesome and have the toilet out there too helped!! We loved the place sooo much that we told our family to book their stay with Juan ! We used the market that’s walking distance a lot , they have fresh food and fruits. It was nice to sit with the locals at the park and enjoy the sunsets. If you’re looking for a brand new home with great host book this Airbnb !!!!

Casa Maraya was splendid. The location is tucked away privately between two ranches and still developing lots so it felt peaceful and private. The interior of the house was nicely curated and cozy, the pool and the outdoor kitchen was near perfection! Juan and Amanda both were very responsive and friendly with recommendations around town for all our questions and our needs. The appliances were a little tricky to figure out (they were all very modern!) but their very descriptive manuals made it easy to follow. Guanacaste was a beautiful area I would definitely book this place again when I return.

I've traveled to different airbnb's around the world and this one has been the best I've ever visited airbnb exceeds the amenities , super pleasant , in a strategic area for tours , work or rest, cable TV, high speed internet. Completed street access, famous beaches and tourist sites of Guanacaste super close by. Supermarkets and restaurants 3 min by car or 10 min walk . A very safe area, people love the hosts , super gentle neighbors. If you are going to visit Costa Rica Guanacaste, it is an area that you have to visit and this house is very close to the international airport and tourist sites and tours , mountain and volcanoes

He viajado a diferentes airbnb alrededor del mundo y este por mucho a sido el mejor que he visitado. el airbnb excede las comodidades , super placentero , en una zona estrategica para tours , trabajo o descanso , todo super limpio , tv por cable , internet alta velocidad . Accesos por calle lastreada , playas famosas y sitios turisticos de Guanacaste super cerca . Supermercados y restaurantes a 3 minutos en carro o 10 a pie . Zona muy segura , gente muy amale los anfitriones , vecinos super gentiles . Si usted va a visitar Costa Rica Guanacaste es una zona que si o si tiene que visitar y esta casa esta muy cerca de aeropuerto internacional y sitios turisticos y tours aplayas , montaña y volcanes
