Thank you so much for taking the time to write a review. We appreciate it very much and hope to have the pleasure of hosting your vacation again. We will include your suggestion immediately, with the bags at hand. And thank you.

I recommend the place without hesitation. The house is very nice, super equipped, right on the beach, everything is clean and it's just as indicated in the app. I would definitely come back. The host's service is outstanding. Johanna is very helpful and friendly. It was a spectacular family weekend. Just to get there, I recommend taking the Carmona-Playa Bejuco road. Going through Jicaral is terrible and a real ordeal. The street is very damaged and it's very slow to get to the place. I recommend bringing everything you need. There's only a mini supermarket, which serves as a last resort, but nothing more. Everything else is far away. It's a place to really disconnect, have a good, quiet time, and clear your mind. Like I said, I recommend it 100%.

Recomiendo a ojos cerrados el lugar, la casa muy bonita, super equipada, a pie de playa, todo limpio y es tal cual lo indica en la aplicación, indudablemente volvería, la atención del anfitrión indiscutible, Johanna muy atenta y amable, un fin de semana en familia espectacular, solo que para llegar les recomiendo entrar por la carretera Carmona-Playa bejuco, por jicaral es terrible y una odisea, la calle esta muy dañada y es muy lento llegar al lugar, se recomienda llevar todo lo necesario, solo hay un míni super, que cumple como salvatandas pero nada mas, después todo esta lejos, es un lugar para realmente ir a desconectarse, pasar un buen momento de tranquilidad y despejar la mente, como les digo, lo recomiendo al 100%.

Felipe, thank you very much for your kind words. It's a great pleasure for us that you are so happy and feel at home. Pura vida!

Excellent place, very private and with many amenities

Excelente lugar, muy privado y con muchas facilidades

This is our second time staying at Casa Mar y Arte and it does not disappoint! There is something magical about staying right on the beach, and our group spent most of our time in the rancho or on the sand. Playa San Miguel is a beautiful, quiet spot with great surf and sunsets. The home has plenty of sleeping arrangements for larger groups, and the daily housekeeping was a plus. The kids loved having their own room, as well as the pool and searching for sand dollars out front. Dominga’s breakfast burritos were a hit all around as well as her fresh maracuya juice! We look forward to returning again soon.

Everything is very good The surroundings and the beach in the back are unique Ms. Johana was very attentive. Thank you very much. My family and I had a great time.

Todo muy bien El entorno y la playa en la parte de atrás son únicas Doña Johana super atenta muchísimas gracias, mi familia y yo la pasamos muy bien

Our stay was incredible! Everything in the house was great, impeccable and super comfortable. We definitely want to stay here again another time. 100% recommended accommodation!

¡Nuestra estancia fue increíble! Todo en la casa estuvo muy bien, impecable y súper cómoda. Definitivamente queremos volver a hospedarnos aquí en otro momento. ¡Alojamiento 100% recomendado!

Thank you very much 🙏. We hope to welcome you again.

Our family loved our stay, the pictures don’t show how close the house is to the ocean.  Sleeping with the sound of the waves was amazing and the peaceful beach was amazing!

Definitely an extraordinary stay. The house is spotless, everything clean and tidy. The host was always attentive to our needs. The scenery and tranquility are among the best features of this place. We hope to return soon.

Sin lugar a dudas, una estadía extraordinaria. La casa impecable, todo limpio y ordenado. El anfitrión siempre estuvo atento a nuestras necesidades. El paisaje y la tranquilidad es de las mejores cualidades de este lugar. Esperamos volver pronto.

Beautiful place on the beach Very nice host Highly recommended

Beautiful, private feeling location.  It felt like being at a resort in having a small pool, our little piece of beach and plenty of beds.  Outdoor kitchen and eating area were great for sunsets and plenty of hammocks made resting a guarantee.

Our family had an awesome time in Playa San  Miguel. We have visited a few other countries around Central America but the Mar y Arte place beat everything we have seen so far. The property management responded within a few minutes to any of our questions or requests. Mar y Arte is a very beautiful prestine  and peaceful place. Kitchen is staffed with anything and everything. Housekeeping was great. There was no language barrier compared to the other countries. Great nature and lots of wild life. Our kids was almost crying the day before leaving. Considering of coming back in the future. Definitely would recommend it. 
Thank you Roxana for a great time!

Thank you very much. It was a pleasure to welcome

This place is a gem, in front of the beach, which is incredible, clean, quiet, the ranch is super useful and equipped just like the house, just like in the photos, Ms. Johana is super attentive and friendly, in addition, we recommend paying for the food service offered by Ms. Dominga 10/10 We will definitely be back, an incredible place and service!

Una joya este lugar, en frente de la playa, la cual es increíble, limpia, tranquila, el rancho súper útil y equipado al igual que la casa, tal cual en las fotos, doña Johana súper atenta y amable, además, recomendamos pagar por el servicio de alimentación que ofrece doña Dominga 10/10 Sin duda volveremos, lugar y atención increíbles!

A beautiful and excellent place if you are looking for coexistence, disconnection and peace for the guests. The place is very clean, well equipped, quiet and secluded. You feel supported at all times by the managers in case something is required or you have any questions. The place and facilities definitely encourage sharing with family and having quality time!

Un lugar precioso y excelente si lo q se busca es la convivencia, desconexión y paz de los huéspedes. El lugar muy limpio, bien equipado, tranquilo y retirado. Se siente el soporte en todo momento por parte de los encargados en caso de que se requiera algo o se tenga alguna duda. Definitivamente el lugar y las instalaciones incentivan compartir en familia y a tener tiempo de calidad!

I had a great stay with my family.. the recommendation around "Dominga's food" was great... this is a great fit, if you enjoy beach walks at all time, peace, relax, great beach... To be fair it is a great choice!

Excellent space, it has two kitchens, perfectly equipped to cook for a large family group. The beds are comfortable, there are enough linens and towels, the air conditioners work perfectly, the house has a charming layout to spend the whole day on the premises, plus they gave us very clear recommendations on activities to do in the area and restaurants. Highly recommended, I will definitely be back

Excelente espacio, tiene dos Cocinas, perfectamente equipadas de sobra para poder cocinar para un grupo familiar grande. Las camas son cómodas, hay suficiente ropa de cama y paños, los aires acondicionados funcionan a la perfección, la casa tiene una distribución encantadora para poder pasar todo el día en las instalaciones, además de qué nos dieron recomendaciones muy claras sobre actividades para hacer en la zona y restaurantes. Ampliamente recomendado, sin duda, volveré

Muchas gracias!! que dicha que disfrutaron

Our stay was excellent. The house is very clean and well-equipped for large groups. We really enjoyed the common areas and the tranquility of the place. Everything was as shown in the photos, and the host's service was very kind and timely. I would definitely recommend this place and we would be happy to come back. Thank you for everything!

Nuestra estancia fue excelente. La casa es muy limpia y bien equipada para grupos grandes. Disfrutamos muchísimo de las áreas comunes y de la tranquilidad del lugar.

Pura vida! Gracias por la oportunidad de recibirlos y esperamos volver a recibirlos.

Marisol muchas gracias por tomarte el tiempo y escribir de Casa Mar y arte es un gusto hacerles hospedado.

Excellent place, very quiet and private. Just a few steps from the beach, literally. Spectacular sunsets.

Excelente lugar, muy tranquilo y privado. A solo unos pasos de la playa, literalmente. Atardeceres espectaculares.

Thank you! for choosing Mar y arte to host your vacations, we are truly grateful and hope to see you again soon.  Pura vida!

Very quiet place, special for resting and enjoying the beautiful beach. Many amenities and super clean. My family and I will definitely be back

Lugar muy tranquilo, especial para descansar y disfrutar de la hermosa playa. muchas comodidades y súper limpio. definitivamente mi familia y yo volveremos

Gustavo muchas gracias por hospedarse en Mar y arte, será un gusto poder volver a recibirlos.   Saludos y muy feliz año.

This is a beautiful home located right in the beach. When we arrived two of the phone numbers provided were out of service but thankfully the third which was direct to the owner was working and he helped sort us out and get checked in. The home itself was a dream located right on the beach with all the amenities you could desire. The beds were comfortable, washrooms prestine, indoor and outdoor kitchens, hammocks, multiple spots to relax. It honestly felt like we were at a private resort. The beach was great and not too crazy for family. There is not much around this location and is perfect for a private and peaceful getaway. I absolutely loved this place and wish I could have stayed longer. I will definitely keep this one in my favourites!

Thank you! we appreciate your kind words and hope to be able to host your vacations again.  Godspeed!

Had a great stay the beach is super private and peaceful. Three couples were very comfortable- the outside space was amazing. Get the breakfast from Doña Dominga!!

Thank you for staying at mar y arte, we fell joy to know our clients are enjoying their stay.  Look forward to your next visit!

Very good the truth, they passed us cleaning the house very nice everything 🙌🏽

Muy bien la verdad, nos pasaban limpiando la casa muy lindo todo 🙌🏽

An ideal place to disconnect, the accommodation has everything you need for a quiet stay. The kitchen is super well equipped. The attention of the owners excellent and it is worth emphasizing the friendliness and warmth of Yohana the cleaning girl. We really enjoyed our time here. Thank you! 🙏🏼

Un lugar ideal para desconectarse, el alojamiento cuenta con todo lo necesario para una estadía tranquila. La cocina está súper bien equipada. La atención de los dueños excelente y cabe recalcar la amabilidad y la calidez de Yohana la chica de limpieza. Disfrutamos mucho nuestro tiempo acá. Gracias! 🙏🏼

We loved our stay. A real terrestrial paradise once you're there. We were even able to observe a turtle laying its eggs on the beach. The sea and the almost private beach at the front of the accommodation, wow! And what to say about Doña Dominga's food. We were treated with small onions. We hope to return sometime!

Nous avons adoré notre séjour. Un vrai paradis terrestre une fois rendu sur place. Nous avons même pu observer une tortue pondre ses œufs sur la plage. La mer et la plage quasi privée aux abord du logement, wow! Et que dire de la nourriture de Doña Dominga. Nous avons été traités aux petits oignons. Nous espérons revenir un jour!

We loved the place, the house, the location, the cleaning service and in general everything was as indicated.

Nos encanto el lugar, la casa, la locacion, el servicio de limpieza y en general todo estuvo tal y como lo indicaron.

A beautiful house, complete, with everything you need to enjoy as a family. Beautiful place with everything you need to have a great family time!

Una casa hermosa, completa, con todo lo necesario para disfrutar en familia. Beautiful place with everything you need to have a great family time!

Excellent place with a great location and a ocean view. Very good accommodation layout.

Excelente lugar con una excelente ubicación y vista al mar. Muy buena distribución del alojamiento.

Muchas gracias Gerald muy agradecidos de haberles hospedado en Mar y arte.  Ojalá podamos seguir recibiéndolos. Saludos

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this lovely location. The road getting there is atrocious, but worth it once you get there. There were many extras that we appreciated, such as beach towels, hammocks, lounge chairs, filter pitchers for clean water and plenty of cushioned chairs.  The pool was so nice, and we were impressed to find they had freshly drained and refilled it for our arrival. The cleaning lady, Joanna, is so sweet and let me just say, GET FOOD FROM DOMINGA!  It is fantastic and a great value! After experiencing the beans and rice breakfast, we ordered it for the rest of our stay. How can you beat a fantastic, reasonably priced meal delivered right to your table in paradise? Everything that we got from her was delicious. Definitely a great perk to staying here. I very much enjoyed the well-equipped outdoor kitchen with lots of good quality tableware and cookware, and a large refrigerator with filtered ice. We definitely hope to be back.

Very fun house right on the beach, in a great location. Will for sure be returning

Thank you for your review, we look forward to your future vacation at Mar y Arte.

The house is directly on the beautiful and uncrowded Playa de San Miguel and this is its greatest attraction. Unfortunately, it needs maintenance and feels sloppy. Roxana was expedited to fix our suggestions so we are sure that the small inconveniences will be resolved soon with Maria and her team of maintenance. The cabin room due to its size and low ventilation becomes extremely hot. The social area being outside near the small pool is ideal for children. The green area with palm trees invites you to hang hammocks and a nap in front of the sea. Sample of Roxana's gift of people and her proeupation for our comfort is the excellent complimentary breakfast with which he welcomed us and the delicious pameadas tortillas he sent us as a farewell. In short, we would not hesitate, the 14 members of our family to spend some wonderful days again in Mar Y Arte.

La casa está directamente en la preciosa y poco concurrida Playa de San Miguel y esto es su mayor atractivo. Desafortunadamente necesita mantenimiento y se siente descuidada. Roxana se mostó expedita en arreglar nuestras sugerencias por lo que estamos seguros que las pequeñas inconveniencias pronto las solucionará con María y su equipo de mantenimiento. El cuarto de camarotes por su tamaño y poca ventilación se vuelve extremadamente caliente. El área social al estar al exterior cerca de la pequeña piscina es ideal para niños. El área verde con palmeras invita a colgar hamacas y a una siesta frente al mar. Muestra del don de gente de Roxana y su proeocupación por nuestro confort es el excelente desayuno de cortesía con que nos recibió y las deliciosas tortillas pameadas que nos envió de despedida. En resúmen no dudaríamos, los 14 miembros de nuestra familia en volver a pasar unos maravillosos días en Mar Y Arte.

Estimada doña Ligia muchas gracias por sus sugerencias hemos seguido todas para que las vacaciones de los futuros huéspedes sean muy placenteras. La Semana Santa es la época más caliente del año, estamos agradecidos por la oportunidad de mejora que nos brinda. Nuestra meta es que la casa sea un espacio que sirva a las familias y amigos a crear recuerdos inolvidables y que se sigan reuniendo en este paraíso natural. Gracias 🙏

We had a wonderful time!!! Beach was fantastic and the area was private and quiet. Roxana was very attentive, answered all our questions and made us feel at home. We would love to stay again!

We are thankful to have host your vacations.  We look forward to your future stays.

Very nice and complete house. Spectacular service from the owners.

Casa muy linda y completa. Espectacular servicio por parte de los dueños.

The location and beach are amazing! We had a great time and the house is very well equipped. We loved it too much and definitely want to come back! Highly recommended!

La ubicación y la playa son increíbles! La pasamos muy bien y la casa está muy equipada. Nos gustó demasiado y definitivamente queremos volver! Muy recomendado!

Location location location! You cannot beat this beachfront location. Steps from the playa with a gorgeous view. The outdoor kitchen is a fun set up, yet the fridge and microwave are inside the house making for a slightly disjointed cooking experience. The property next door is a camping spot and unfortunately we had some extremely loud and rude neighbors when we were there. The host was very responsive and did everything within her power to help.  San Miguel beach is absolutely gorgeous and this house is in a beautiful spot!

Excellent location. One of the best I've lived in Guanacaste, this house is a perfect space to share with large groups, a magnificent beach in front where to share in the common area next to the sound of the sea and the guanacaste sunsets, make it one of my favorite places. Super recommended. The service from the hosts is also very good. Overall, excellent rating.

Excelente ubicación. De lo Mejor que he vivido en guanacaste, esta casa es un espacio perfecto para compartir con grupos grandes, una playa magnífica enfrente donde compartir en la zona común al lado del sonido Del Mar y los atardeceres de guanacaste, hacen que sea de mis lugares favoritos. Súper recomendada. La atención de los Host también muy buena. En términos generales, excelente calificación.
