Playa Hermosa Ocean view house in gated community - Villas for Rent in CR, Costa Rica

Max made it very easy to work with great with the locations how to plan our week stay. Great locations to eat a list of things to do while we stay.

Max’s home was absolutely gorgeous—so spacious, spotless, and with incredible views. We especially loved relaxing in the pool each afternoon after long beach days. The entire stay was comfortable, peaceful, and truly enjoyable. We will definitely be returning the next time we’re in Playa Hermosa. Highly recommend! Thank you, Max, for such a wonderful stay in your beautiful home.

This was our third year staying here and it continues to be one of our favorite places. The home is in a quiet, peaceful community and is perfectly located. A beautiful beach is just a short walk away, and there’s a grocery store, great places to eat, and everything you need nearby. Café Bohio is always a gem and offers amazing coffee and food. It’s also conveniently close to Jaco and Herradura if you want to head into town or book a fishing excursion. Overall, it’s a great place to relax while still being close to everything. We look forward to coming back again.

I truly loved staying here and would do it again! No complaints book with Max right now!!

My first visit to CR. I couldn't have been more satisfied with the local, security,  neighborhood.  Very peaceful  private gated community with a 24/7 security guard. A walk to the beach with great local restaurants,  mini-mart, coffee shop and pharmacy. Max had everything in working order and explained everything so well, I only texted him once which he quickly responded.  Thank you for a memorial vacation.

The house is very nice and Max is an excellent host.

La casa es muy bonita y Max es excelente anfitrion.

I went on an impromptu trip and booked Max’s place. All I can say is beautiful place located 5 minutes from town!!!! I felt right at home and safe due to being a gated house - rooms were amazing, the view was calm and pristine and overall interactions with max were easy. Def would book again if I end up back there

Nice place! Beautiful view of the ocean from the balcony. Convient and very close to Jaco and a not too far from Manuel Antonio. House located right off the main road, pro and con to this though because there are times when traffic can be loud as other reviews mentioned, but most of the time it was fine and didn't bother us. House was clean overall, and the host was responsive and even recommended a good private chef. Only con during our stay was gecko got into the house because the window in the master bathroom could did not close due to a broken handle, we were able to get the gecko out and notified host, so hopefully that issue is resolved now. Would rent this location again. Overall great experience!

Great location with a beautiful view, safe and clean. Friendly and responsive host. As others have stated the trucks can be loud in the early morning so beware if you’re a light sleeper but nothing some ear plugs couldn’t fix

Would happily stay here again. House is beautiful and spacious and all as described. Very comfortable and we made good use of small plunge pool. 24 hour guard on duty at gated community made us feel even more secure about leaving possessions at the house while we were out and about. We had four surfers stay here with each having en-suite bedrooms. We mainly surfed Jaco beach which is only 10 minute drive. Surfing at Hermosa beach is right across the street, about 5 minute walk to beach. A few great restaurants within walking distance.

My group and I enjoyed Max’s place and our stay. Great location with options in walking distance of restaurants and markets. About 10 mins from variety of options in Jaco beach. House was very spacious, Max provided great communication and local recommendations for tours. Would definitely book again.

Max is an amazing host! Always responded to messages throughout our trip! His home is super spacious and a quick walk to the beach. The location isn’t far from Jaco’s downtown area either! There was plenty of space for everyone and I took four teenage boys on this trip! He has everything you need there except like boogie boards and such if you want to do an activity like that! We enjoyed our stay at his place so much! Gated community with super nice and accommodating gate guards!

My second time staying at this beautiful home. Not far from town and has an amazing little Cafe across the street with great food and coffee

Max was extremely helpful for the entire stay. He organized our airport transfer and regularly checked in on us. The house is gated and watched over by a security guard 24/7. The area is incredibly  accessible and we were able to find food, beach access, and stores all without renting a car. I would highly recommend a stay here.

Max wanted to have maintenance come in during our stay to work on the washing machine saying it didn’t work good enough.  That should be scheduled during a time when none has it booked.  We ran out of propane cooking dinner in the kitchen and had to have him bring us more and he did it right away. Thank you.

The house had beautiful views, and the pool was a great way to end a long day and relax.  There are a lot of stairs in the home as it is multilevel and a steep slope down the drive way. The front door steps were also a bit challenging for some. The biggest issue is the constant road noise. While the window/doors are double pane and offer a tremendous view, they still allow  considerable road noise. The trucks going back and for all night long never allow you more than a couple hours of sleep during the night.

This is a beautiful place to stay. It is also conveniently located close to Jaco. This lets you have a quiet beach experience 3mins away, as well as access to a “big” city when needed. There is a security gate that is monitored 24/7 which makes it feel very safe. Two words of caution with this location: First, there is a huge tree just off the balcony that has a dozen or more birds nesting in it. The birds are very loud most of the day. They start in the early morning and don’t stop until sunset. This is typical of Costa Rica, but they are very active. Second, the house is right next to the main road that goes to Jaco. This means there is a fair bit of traffic noise at all hours. The beach near the house is amazing. It is one of the best beaches we visited during our trip. It has dark sand, is uncrowded, and the water was warm. There are a ton of excellent food options right next to the house. Everything from American BBQ to a full vegan place.

The place is very accessible as Max indicates. Quiet place with beautiful sunsets. It has everything you need and useful to have a good time. Close to many restaurant options and close to downtown Jaco.

El lugar muy accesible tal como lo indica Max. Espacio tranquilo con bellos atardeceres. Posee lo necesario y útil para pasarla bien. Cercano a muchas opciones de restaurantes y cerca del centro de Jaco.

Max’s place was stunning!  It had amazing views and it was easily walkable to the beach, which was uncrowded and beautiful.  The house was very well equipped, very clean, and very nicely decorated.  It was the perfect floor plan for our group with every couple having their own private bedroom and bathroom.  We enjoyed the infinity pool and the BBQ.  Max was quick to respond when we had questions and offered many recommendations for local dining.  The only drawback to this place was the traffic noise.  But, everything else made up for it.

Our stay at Max’s place was absolutely fantastic! The house was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Max was incredibly responsive to our messages and provided excellent local recommendations. We felt truly welcomed and would definitely book again on our next visit to Playa Hermosa."

Max was a great host, attentive to all of our needs. He helped us find local places to enjoy and hooked us up with services we needed like a driver. The house is large and easily slept 8 adults. Loved the quick walk to the beach, coffee shop and beautiful views. So much of nature to enjoy from the porches.

This villa was nothing short of amazing for my guest and I. Max being the host really helped takes this experience to the next level. Max was extremely helpful and responded quickly to all inquires. 24hr friendly security so we felt safe at all times. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, thanks Max!

Really enjoyed the house overall. Had a great view of the ocean and there is a nice little Cafe across the street. Really good breakfast and coffee. Will definitely stay there again when I find myself in the area

Great place - just noisy at night, lots of trucks and the house is 50 meters from the road

**Review for Our Stay at an Airbnb in Jaco, Costa Rica** We had a wonderful stay at this Airbnb in Jaco, Costa Rica. The location is prime, situated on a busy highway but extremely secure and easily accessible. It’s about a five-minute drive to Jaco Beach, making the commute a breeze. The property features a security guard who is present at all times and ensures the front gate is always closed. You are provided with a clicker to open and close the gate, although the guard often opens it for you before you even need to grab the clicker, adding to the convenience and safety. The surroundings are teeming with wildlife, adding an intriguing layer to our stay. The house itself was immaculately clean and very well maintained. As a three-story home, be prepared to use the stairs frequently. Both the bathrooms and the kitchen were spotless and well-appointed. The only minor downside we noticed was a lack of good cooking utensils, but there were ample pots, pans, silverware, and other eating

Absolutely fantastic! I wish I could take this house home . Great layout . I will be back

Beautiful place to stay, would highly recommend 5/5 !!!

Great stay! Max was very helpful from booking to throughout our stay. The recommendations for places to eat, a chef, and even transportation! He was responsive to any issues we had with the property. The easiest checkout instructions ever that didn’t require us to do much so we didn’t mind the cleaning lady arriving before we checked out.

Max was an excellent host! He coordinated all the transportation and activities during our stay. Place is AMAZING

Max’s place was amazing. Felt very safe while staying here. Max gave great recommendations and the house is very close to anything you would want to do. Thanks again for everything Max!

Max was great! House was fabulous, clean spacious and beautiful. Recommend staying here if you are visiting the Jaco area.

Place was great.  Pictures didn’t do it justice, beach is walkable, lots of restaurants to walk to, close to all of the good excursions in Jaco. Also if you like nightlife easy to get to bars great location will definitely come again

Absolutely gorgeous views, private & gated. Close to town. Street with traffic wasn't that bad. Worth it and will definitely come back!

Wonderful place to stay for a large group with ample accommodations. There is road noise, but did not bother us. We were able to cook in the home with minor adjustments. We needed Max assistance three times and he was helpful in every instance. Nothing major, just minor stuff. He is very kind and responsive. Beds are a little firm, but that is pretty normal from our experiences. Views are incredible from this house. We really enjoyed watching the lizards, wild McCaws and other birds every day. Also, we loved using the pool. Would highly recommend and stay here again.

The house was beautiful and comfortable. There is an ocean view from 3 of the 4 bedrooms. One of the restaurants Max recommended Vida Hermosa had delicious food and good drinks. It was right on the beach and only a 5 minute drive up the road. I definitely recommend staying here.

We spent a month at Max's house which is beautiful, with all amenities, very comfortable and a partial view of the sea, security guard 24hrs/7, the beach is 200 meters away where we can walk for a very long time and there are still big waves (but very swimable every day). Nearby restaurants are excellent and a close convenience store. Max is a very attentive, responsive and efficient host always available. The only catch of this house is the continuous noise of trucks and other vehicles but we already knew that before we booked!

Nous avons passé un mois a la maison de Max qui est magnifique, avec toutes les commodités, très confortable et une vue partielle sur la mer, gardien de sécurité 24hrs/7, la plage a 200 mètres ou nous pouvons marcher très longtemps et il y a quand même des grosses vagues (mais très baignable chaque jour). Les restaurants à proximité sont excellents et dépanneur proche. Max est un hôte très à l'écoute, réactif et efficace toujours disponible. Le seul hic de cette maison est le bruit continuel des camions et autres véhicules mais nous le savions déjà avant de réserver !

Disfrutamos mucho hospedarnos en este lugar.

Our family of five had a great stay. The house is spacious, clean and well furnished. It is a short walk to the beach which is beautiful, you are close to local cafe, restaurants and supermarket. Just a short drive to Jaco and lots of local tours and activities. Max, was a great host and would recommend a stay at Hermosa beach it is a beautiful beach community.

Max was a great host and very responsive. We had an issue with hot water but Max got it fixed the next morning. It was a great location within a gated community, wonderful clean pool. We loved our stay. Thanks Max!

Love this place. Probably the best place we stayed in and we travel a lot. The host is very helpful and friendly and responses quickly. Beautiful home

This place was awesome! The views were outstanding the pictures do not do justice. My guests were beyond satisfied and excited with the house. Everything worked perfectly with no issues. It’s awesome having a security guard 24/6 and a gate. Very quiet area would recommend anyone to come stay here.

We had a great stay at this location for my 50th birthday. Only issue was with finding the location. Other than that, it was a clean, quiet peaceful place that would be a perfect location to house a family visiting Jaco. It is very evident that great care went into designing the decor and feel of the property.

Our family of five had the pleasure of staying at this beautiful home for a week for our first trip to Costa Rica. Max was very helpful with giving detailed  instructions for an easy check in. The place was private and we felt very safe. It was also centrally located to a lot of the activities we wanted to do. Like some of the other reviews mentioned it can get very loud with the main Highway being so close but it didn’t bother us much. Overall we enjoyed our stay very much and would hope to visit again!

Despite having three floors and many bleachers,  the house is cozy.

Pese a tener tres pisos y muchas gradas,  la casa es confortable.

Great stay, would definitely book again with Max !

Beautiful house in the perfect location! Max was super helpful prior checking in and throughout our stay.

This is my second time staying there and it’s always a pleasure. Max is cool to work with.

This is a very nice, spacious home with plenty of room for my husband and myself and our four adult kids. The kitchen is very well stocked although you will need to provide all of your own spices (with the exception of salt) if you plan to cook there. The beds were comfortable and the linens were nice. You will need to bring along all of your shower amenities. Cafe Bohio is across the street and we enjoyed coffee, smoothies and avocado toast from there. There is a pizza place next to the Cafe that we didn't try but it had good reviews. The beach is a short walk down an easily identifiable dirt road. The only negative we would have about the place is the noise from the cars/large trucks that traffic the road 24/7. We did anticipate this and although it did not wake me up at night, the trucks braking early in the morning and late into the night disturbs the tranquility of the setting. Would highly recommend this home.

The house is beautiful and impeccably clean, but it is incredibly loud. It’s right on a main transport road for the country, with constant trucks. Also at the bottom of a hill, so air breaks going off at all hours.

Max's service as a host was very good. It is important to note that the house is close to the beach, but it is not “on” the beach. You have to go to the beach by car. The house is very nice although it is not tremendously comfortable because it is divided into 3 floors, the first level is the least comfortable of all. It has a very nice view but as it is right in front of the main road, it is very noisy at night due to the traffic of heavy vehicles. Really, VERY noisy. Very well equipped, excellent kitchen, although you may need to add a separate dish dryer. Good air conditioning, manages to keep the house cold when you want it. The grill, excellent, as new... spacious and well maintained. Very comfortable beds, I would add a couple more pillows per bed to make the rooms perfect. Good bathrooms, spacious and well equipped. There is nearby where to buy things to eat/cook. Overall a good house to spend a few days near the beach. Recommended.

Muy bien el servicio de Max como host. Es importante hacer notar que la casa está cerca a la playa, pero no está “en” la playa. A la playa hay que ir en carro. La casa es muy linda aunque no es tremendamente cómoda porque está dividida en 3 pisos, el primer nivel es el menos cómodo de todos. Tiene muy bonita vista pero como está justamente frente a la carretera principal, es muy ruidosa en la noche por el tránsito de vehículos pesados. De verdad, MUY ruidosa. Muy bien equipada, excelente cocina, aunque talvez haga falta agregar un secador de platos aparte. Buen aire acondicionado, logra mantener fría la casa cuando uno lo quiere. La parrilla, excelente, como nueva… amplia y bien mantenida. Camas muy cómodas, yo agregaría un par de almohadas más por cama para que estuvieran perfectas las habitaciones. Buenos baños, amplios y bien equipados. Hay cerca donde comprar cosas para comer/cocinar. En general una buena casa para pasar unos días cerca de la playa. Recomendada.

Max and the place were great! Well worth the stay and would highly recommended as the “boutique” secret stay space when in the Jaco area. Perfect place to jump from for all needs (rainforest, zip line, beaches, atvs)and close enough in to heart of city to function perfectly as a true relaxing getaway! Incredible communication from Max and true ease of stay. Thanks a ton!

It's a beautiful house, nicely decorated, and a great location. The four bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, was perfect for our family. We loved the location being near many attractions, but away from the congestion and hustle of Jacó. The kitchen has all the tools, but did lack having condiments & spices often found in Airbnb homes (minor issue). There can be road noises, especially truck engine breaking at night which can be loud at times. We did have some problems with the a/c in the main sitting room, but Max was very responsive, made every effort to respond, and was very apologetic for the problem (hey, problems happen sometimes...so it's all about how we handle it). One quick tip to find the house given the lack of addresses in CR, it's right across the street from Café Bohío (a great coffee shop). We had a great experience here and would gladly stay there again if traveling to the area.

Lovely apartment! My family really enjoyed our stay. We would rent this place again.

The house is beautiful and exactly as shown in the photos. There is a great breakfast/coffee place across the street and it’s very close to downtown Jaco and the beach.

This was our first trip to Costa Rica and chose Max’s beautiful home in Playa Hermosa. We felt very comfortable with the 24 hr security. The quaint beach was a short walk across the road as well as a few great restaurants within walking distance. We were two families who travel together frequently. 4 adults and 4 20+year olds shared the space and were very comfortable during our stay. From morning coffee on the porch watching wildlife to beautiful sunsets in the evening we highly recommend Hermosa Surf House.

The home was beautiful and superseded our expectations. It is conveniently located to Jaco, about 10mins away and was easy for us to travel to and from. Max was friendly and responsive when we needed him.  It was a great stay for me and my cousins.  I would highly recommend.

Great location, beautiful home, felt safe and secure. I can’t wait to book again.

I have stayed in the Jaco / Hermosa area many times and I must say that Max's house is the most comfortable / relaxing house that I have stayed in.  Myself and 3 friends each had our own room which made the trip super comfortable.  Each room had air conditioning, hot water shower, and a toilet.  I like the floor plan as well.  The couch on the top floor is super comfortable and the internet worked perfectly well.  The plunge pool on the second floor is very relaxing and is easy accessible to the 2 bedrooms which are on that floor.  Max was very kind, hospitable, and communicative.  I and well as my friends will be coming back to the Hermosa Surf House in the near future.

Absolutely loved this Airbnb and my time in Jaco, would stay here again!

Book the trip! Spacious and well stocked house. Beautiful landscaping and attentive neighborhood guards. The beach is a short walk ( think 3 city blocks not avenues ) across the street. AC worked great, loved that the doors open wide for cool breeze when we didn’t need the AC. The house is on a very steep hill. Wheelchair use outside isn’t a good idea. Neither are kid strollers or wagons. You could absolutely bring your kids but the stairs, pool and outside area just mean you will spend more time trying to avoid kid injury vs enjoy your stay. The master is on the entrance floor, two rooms below , then the 4th room at the bottom 3rd floor, all with access to outside patio areas. Lots of stairs to climb up and down. The pool plus washer/dryer are on the bottom second floor. Just know the 4th room is downstairs next to driveway with door so not ideal for kids but great for anyone who likes to come and go in silence. October starts rainy season. For us it was occasional light rain during day that was short and didn’t interrupt excursions. During our 4 night visit to the country, two nights were thunderstorms, which was ok because we were usually in the house by 7pm. Expensive cafe and market right across street for essentials. Most of our activities were within 20min drive. Many excursions don’t offer pick up from the airbnb location, so a rental car is a very good idea. You could opt for Uber just know they don’t usually arrive in time so prepare to request ride well ahead of time. It gets dark around 5pm and the roads in the area don’t have street lights which makes driving unfamiliar roads with potholes a little stressful. Plan accordingly. The day of departure followed a night of rain. It took us 4 hours to get to airport due to a landslide. Luckily we all made our flights within 5min of door closing. There are restaurants and souvenir shops in the surrounding area of the airport. I suggest arriving to the area early to eat and shop vs getting stuck in traffic. They also have VIP Lounges ( for a few or required membership) in the terminals if you prefer to wait inside. The community is very nice. We enjoyed all meals out plus the excursions. Even made a trip to Studio Tortelli in Jacó for tattoos. My sisters and I can’t wait to return to Costa Rica !!!

Great and convenient spot. Plenty of room. Kitchen had everything needed. Very safe!

Max’s place was so nice and clean. The photos don’t do it justice. It truly was an amazing stay!

This house was PERFECT! No complaints, it was clean, and as pictured, good for large groups or families. Good location, and great view. The house was 10/10

ty Daniela, looking forward to be your host again!

Max was great and very helpful. Place was centrally located and close to food and stores. Would recommend to anyone traveling in this area

Max place is amazing. Perfect location seconds away from the main highway that takes you into the main strip.. Nice restaurants across the street with amazing views of the beach.. awesome black sands (rarely see that in U.S)... place is really clean..AC works amazingly.. place reminds me of  (Beverly Hills).. house is so much bigger than pictures.. you'd be amazed... it's extremely modern..5 stars for sure

We had a wonderful time. The house was beautiful it had everything you need. Plenty of room and we loved the pool. Ocean view from almost everywhere! We love Costa Rica ❤️

Beautiful place. Looks better than the pictures. Top notch service.

Max was a great host and took great care of us . This house has a great layout and it’s perfect for a group of people.  House was modern and spotless. It also has great food options that are in walking distance.. would definitely love to stay there again .

It was exactly as advertised. Great service, great property, great recommendations.

Great host and convenient location. Listing was spacious and had all amenities needed. Listing is only 5 mins away from Jaco and sits conveniently right across the street from a great cafe and market that is open 24/7.

This house was very spacious. Right across the street is a cafe and market. It was only a 5 min drive to downtown Jaco. It was nice doing business with you max

This places is exactly like the pictures! location is perfect for tourist and Max is a super responsive host.

Beautiful house, very clean and safe, we hope to return soon

Hermosa casa, muy limpia y segura, esperamos regresar pronto

Simply amazing!! Definitely coming back! What a beautiful place and amazing host! ♥️

I sincerely hope I get to come stay in this house again someday! A group of us stayed for 4 nights on a trip to see a soccer game. The house is clean, open and inviting, and it was so wonderful to have 4 beds that were queen or king-sized, which is hard to find. The view and pool are beautiful. The small gated community feels safe and the security guards are great, always there to immediately let us in when we were coming from the beach/store/excursion. It is situated within walking distance of a great coffee shop (across the street) and a mini market and a couple restaurants (down the street). You can walk further down to a bar on the beach in 20 minutes or less, there are many to choose from. Yes it is situated off of a road like some reviews note, but the windows really do keep the noise in for the most part. Max was super easy to communicate with over WhatsApp leading up to our trip and was quick to respond/resolve when we had a few issues with the house (that were no one’s fault and weird coincidences). Both of Max’s recommendations for a driver and a chef were great, and they too were easy to communicate with on WhatsApp. We had Chef Ezequiel make us breakfast and dinner on separate days and it was a wonderful addition to our trip! Gerald and his drivers were able to accommodate our larger group everywhere we needed to go - to and from San Jose and on a day trip to Manuel Antonio Park. Book this house if you get the chance, you will not regret it!

the pictures do not do this property justice. Max was an incredibly responsive host and his property is beautiful. If you are staying in Jaco, you need to stay here

The house is beautiful and spacious with lovely views. We had six people and everyone had plenty of space. It is across the street from a lovely coffee shop (cafe bohio) and a short walk to the beach. The waves were too rough for us, but it’s a super short drive to south beach in Jaco and we spent a lovely time there taking surf lessons. Max helped us get those set up on short notice. The only reason to give this place less than 5 stars was proximity to rt 34, which could be very welcome to others. We had just come from very quiet Corcovado and so the noise of traffic was readily noted at this location. It does make the house super easy to find and walking to great coffee and the beach make it a find. We also loved sunsets from the pool.

Both times I have came and stayed here it has been very pleasant and Max responds within a few moments never has he kept me or my guests waiting great location A+++++

This place is amazing. The house, the beach, the surf, the yoga, and the atmosphere in Playa Hermosa. Also Max was a great host. We are already planning our next trip back. Thank you so much!!!

This place was amazing. I was there for 5 weeks and couldn’t have been happier.  With 4 bedrooms each having their own private bath we had plenty of friends and family in throughout our stay. The house had all the amenities you would expect in a high end property. The finishing were top notch, the beds were comfortable, and the pool was just an added bonus.  We walked into an immaculately cleaned place without an ounce of dust or dirt.  Our host Max was very attentive and a fountain of information on tours, restaurants and services.  Right across the street were amazing restaurants and amazing coffee shop, Cafe Bohio.  It was one of our favorite places as well as the beautiful beach that was also across the street.  We couldn’t have had a more beautiful place in a terrific location.  I am hoping to return next year and would love to stay at Max’s place again!!

Max’s place was great. I stayed here for my birthday with 2 friends and it was perfect for us, more than enough room and a very beautiful home, also very safe with a guarded gate.

Great stay, walking distance to the beach. Pool is perfect for a group of friends. Each room with its own bathroom and view.

This house is amazing! Very clean with a stunning view.  The reflection pool is wonderful and we spent a lot of time in it after long days of hiking and sightseeing. Max was very responsive to all of our questions and check in and out was easy. Highly recommend this place if you are in the Jaco or Playa Hermosa areas.

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at Max’s house. The beauty of the water views was amazing. We loved seeing all the birds in the tree right outside our windows, including many Macau’s. We loved the pool and the close location to Jaco.  Wonderful breakfast and coffee place right across the street, Cafe Bohio. A lovely place to vacation and we would definitely stay again.  Thank you, Max!

The view is amazing you will see amazing wild life right outside your window and the rooms were amazing enough for 8 people very spacious and clean!

We had 4 couples and the Hermosa Surf House could not have been better.  All 4 couple had a master suite with an private ensuite bath.  The main living area (top floor) was very spacious with magnificent ocean view.  A huge and very comfortable sectional couch and a large dining table.  The kitchen was well equipped.  Max was a great host and this home came with a concierge - Ezequiel.  Ezequiel arranged for airport transportation and he arranged 2 wonderful chefs to cook an amazing Caribbean meal for us upon our arrival and on New Years day.  The best coffee shop is literally across the street.  There is a very nice path across the street to the perfect spot on the beach.  A surfer’s paradise.  The neighborhood is gated with excellent security.  We felt extremely safe.  The location was perfect as you are close to everything in Jaco but far enough away for a quiet low key beach experience, near several great beach bars and restaurants.  We also loved the pool and used it everyday.  This is a 5 star home and location (and a 5 star host).  Thanks Max for a wonderful week.

Great location for day trips. The house is very nice; save time during your plans to enjoy it.
