The Space
Just 1.8 miles from Playa Grande, Kinamira is surrounded by nature and combines the spirit of Costa Rica with Mediterranean influences.

White walls, blue accents, and traditional palm-thatched roofs create a Mediterranean-meets-Costa-Rica atmosphere. Relax on your private terrace, enjoy your pool, and take in the surrounding landscape. During the rainy season, the river alongside the property comes alive and becomes part of the experience.
The large shared pool is located beneath a palm-thatched roof and offers a relaxed, welcoming setting where travelers can connect. Guests can unwind on a sun lounger or enjoy a casual drink from the self-service minibar.

Truly a magical experience. Sophie’s place is done so thoughtfully, and she was an amazing host. One of our very best Airbnb experiences - peaceful, serene, and very cozy and welcoming. We’d love to come back in the future!

A huge thank you for these two wonderful weeks! We loved our family stay with our 3- and 6-year-old children. The place was exceptional, both for the quality and comfort of the house and for its location. We will have great memories of it.

Kinamira is comfortable & easy to access with beautiful decorations and European details. A quick drive to the beach and the hosts were fast to respond to everything we needed. The wine for purchase in the fridge was an amazing addition! I stayed with my mom so the open floor plan was ok for us, but because the walls do not go to the ceiling, there is very little privacy in the bathroom or bedroom. With only 1 AC in the bedroom, sleeping in the extra bed by the kitchen was pretty hot at night even with the multiple fans. The private plunge pool is shaded and therefore more like a cold plunge. There is also a shared pool on property but we didn’t have time to use it.

We had such an amazing time here. Visited daily by iguanas, monkeys and all kinds of beautiful birds. The cottage is beautifully decorated and all we wanted to do was relax outside and by the communal pool, which we mostly had to ourselves. Great communicative host with lots of local tips and a useful guidebook. Edit before review window closed: Over a week after we arrived home I received a near $200 payment request to replace pots and pans from Sophie which were already slightly damaged when we arrived. We did our usual best to clean everything up and leave it exactly as we found it, but all we did was cook using the pans. There weren't a lot of dining options considering there was no power or water the whole day before we left. Obviously not the fault of the hosts, which is why I never initially called it out in my review. Just be sure to document any minor damages and take pictures. I should’ve done the same. Disputing the charges but an unfortunate end to an otherwise lovely stay

Our stay at Kinamira was an absolute dream! If it's available, don't hesitate to book. It's our second time visiting and it's hands down the best Airbnb experience we've had. Sophie and Christina are amazing hosts, and her property perfectly blends Costa Rican nature with elegant simplicity. We loved relaxing in our private plunge pool and watching the local wildlife. It is a quick drive to Playa Grande, so a car is essential but well worth it. We cannot wait to visit again!

My spouse and I booked with Sophie for our anniversary trip and desperately needed some quiet time together. The lodge and room were both exactly as described and exceeded how peaceful I was expecting. Honestly it was hard to leave Kinamari because all I wanted to do is relax in the hammock or in our pool and listen to the birds and wildlife. Such respite!

Very nice stay, quiet, ultra clean. There was nothing missing. For a special connection with nature, this is a great place to stay. Sophie's recommendations for restaurants, bakery and more are great. The sunsets on Playa Grande are exceptional! An exceptional hostess. Thank you for everything
