Luxury Ocean View Retreat| Sleeps 16 |Pool/Rancho - Houses for Rent in Playa Grande, Provincia de Guanacaste, Costa Rica

This home is a true beauty with amazing views! We really enjoyed our stay here. It had everything we needed and more! Its breathtaking views and accommodations made it so hard to leave! My dad is a hard critic when it comes to Airbnb’s, and he was in awe! Hosts were very responsive, gave great instructions, and attended every need or question we had. We would love to be back some time and have already referred several friends to this place! Speechless!!

Our stay at Casa Victoria was absolutely unforgettable. The home is beautifully designed, spacious, and offers breathtaking ocean views that make every sunset feel magical. The pool, patio, and outdoor spaces create the perfect setting to relax and enjoy Costa Rica’s natural beauty. From the moment we arrived, the hosts were warm, welcoming, and incredibly responsive. They went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed to celebrate our quinceañera, making us feel comfortable and well cared for throughout our stay. The house was exceptionally well-equipped, with a thoughtfully stocked kitchen and every amenity needed for a stress-free vacation. Whether relaxing by the pool, gathering on the deck, or enjoying meals together, every space was comfortable and inviting. Casa Victoria exceeded all of our expectations and provided the perfect place to create lasting memories with family and friends. We would gladly stay here again and recommend.

Amazing stay, we had a great time and the communication with Shawna was really smooth.

Great Location! Very short drive to the beach and local shops/restaurants. Very nice and comfortable place to stay!

Loved our time at Casa Victoria.   Beautiful pool, patio and deck.  Amazing views of ocean and sunsets.  Great amenities.  Plenty of room.   Made our vacation unforgettable.

Casa Victoria in Playa Grande, Guanacaste was outstanding. The property looks exactly like the photos, and the views were stunning. We enjoyed watching the sunsets over the ocean, along with beautiful mountain scenery—truly a special setting. The home was spotless, new and well maintained. I loved the setup of the home, with bedrooms set off from the main living area. We also felt safe —being in a gated community with alarm systems in the house gave us real peace of mind. What truly set this experience apart, though, was the communication and service. Shawna, the property manager, was phenomenal—honestly like having a personal concierge. She helped arrange all of our activities seamlessly and recommended the best options. Thanks to her, we enjoyed horseback riding, fishing, the La Leona waterfall hike, an amazing private chef. Close to various beaches and restaurants, we had a lovely family vacation.

Amazing stay. Kids loved it, the view at sunset is not to be missed.  One thing, there will be bugs.  Love the outdoor area with the grill. And don't miss out on the fruit stand!

Wow! What an amazing place to stay in Playa Grande. The house is immaculate and the views are absolutely stunning! It is very close to markets and beaches, as well as other attractions. We rented a car and had no problem getting around to enjoy the area and Tamarindo. The communication with the host was easy and they were very responsive and friendly. I highly recommend this place. Can’t wait to come back!

We had a truly fantastic stay at this beautiful house in Costa Rica. The property itself is gorgeous, offering absolutely breathtaking views in every direction, and possesses a lovely boutique spa feel. Watching the sunset as a family from the back patio was a nightly ritual that grew more spectacular each day. Despite a hectic first day with a much-later-than-expected arrival, the hosts were incredibly gracious and responsive, which immediately put us at ease. Their exceptional service was consistent; anytime we had a question or needed help, we received an immediate response. This attentiveness made us feel very well cared for. The house was perfectly equipped for our stay. We cooked multiple meals, and the kitchen was so thoughtfully stocked that it was as simple as being in our own home. As first-time visitors to Costa Rica, everything felt new and uncertain, but the house quickly became our safe haven—the perfect place to start and end our adventures.

Wow, just wow. That is how you will feel every day waking up at this property. We had the most incredible vacation and stay at Casa Victoria. Shawna and her team made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. We took full advantage of Shawna's conierge service, and every recommendation was spot on. The beach was easy to get to and about 5 minutes down the road. The house was well stocked with linens, towels and kitchenware. We were a party of 7,  two couples and three teens, everyone had their own rooms and comfortable accomodations. We felt super safe in the gated neighborhood and fenced property. Today.... I am missing the spectacular sunsets from the pool patio, and morning coffee on the covered deck. If you are looking for a enjoyabel retreat and a clean home with spectacular ocean views from the mountain - look no further. This will not dissapoint. We are already planning our next visit in 2027!! Pura Vida

Our group loved this house. It had plenty of space for a very large group, with plenty of beds and bathrooms as well as a very comfortable living area. The layout of the house was great, allowing for beautiful sunset views and fun afternoons in the pool. The home was stocked with all the kitchen, laundry, and beach amenities we needed, which was truly appreciated. The home was well kept, very clean, and the furniture was sturdy and comfortable. The beach, several stores, and restaurants were a short drive away, making it very easy to enjoy our vacation. This space definitely lived up to expectations for a large, diverse group of travelers, and we would certainly visit again.  Additionally, our host, Shawna, was proactive and responsive, helping us secure groceries, recommending a local beach, and helping secure transport for a delayed guest.

This place was even more gorgeous in person! It really is on top of a mountain, and the view is practically 360°. Everything was modern and we had everything we needed! Amenities and kitchen appliances/spices and all! There wasn’t anyone nearby as well, it felt very private and safe. We had individual locks in every room for windows & doors on top of an alarm system and the multiple gates before you get to the property that made us feel even safer. So spacious it truly felt like we had so much to discover on the property and everything went so well, I highly recommend this space! The host herself was very accommodating and responsive, super helpful and gave great suggestions. A suggestion is to definitely have a car, we got around taking cabs & using uber but because of the terrain it wasn’t easy getting in & out. Overall 5 star stay & I hope to come back !

The house was amazing. Exactly as pictured. Our group had a wonderful thanksgiving holiday. Playa Grande is much quieter than Tamarindo which we loved. Everything was great and we would love to come back.

This place is gorgeous, exactly like the photos. Views are incredible! Everything is high-end and extremely clean. Well-stocked kitchen. Laundry room had extra linens and towels. There were 8 large beach towels, 5 beach chairs, a beach umbrella, rolling ice chest, and two boogie boards provided. We really appreciated that! There was loud construction noise on the Friday we stayed but nothing on Sat/Sun. We were in pura vida mode though, so we didn't really mind :) We loved our stay here!

We had a wonderful stay in a beautiful house with amazing views. The host was incredibly responsive and accommodating, making sure we had everything we needed for a fantastic experience. Five stars!

We had a wonderful stay! House is even more beautiful than the pictures! Extremely clean and comfortable beds/seating areas… Outdoor space is gorgeous. Perfect set up for our family vacation with adult children/SO Primary bedroom is on its own floor with sitting area, and private porch. Could be great for a girls weekend too! We rented a car and explored Playa Grande and surrounding areas… We loved Pots & bowls, Huerto’s, Surf Dog and the brewery in town for dining options. Great house in Playa Grande, close to restaurants and beach! Highly recommend!

This home is absolutely beautiful, however you absolutely need a car to get out and about but the house was perfect for 12 of us. The interior/bathroom tiles are *extremely* slippery when wet (which is inevitable when showering and pool-ing) so be mindful of that, but everything was as pictured and beautiful. We had some unfortunate local issues; internet was out for about 48 hours which was a snag, power went out a couple times, and we had a water issue bc the community pump went down. When it rains it pours! Communication with Shawna left a bit to be desired at times, she had missed an email where I inquired about chefing services and by the time I followed up she did manage to find great options which was lovely - my sister tired to book me a massage for my birthday and she was a bit rude to her when the timings of her inquiry didn’t work out but other than those things it was a lovely holiday. We will absolutely be back to this beautiful country!

Thank you for your thoughtful review and for highlighting the beauty of our home—we’re so glad it was a great fit for your group and that you enjoyed your holiday overall. Thankfully, we are very clear in our listing to show that a car is needed for our property. We also appreciate your helpful notes about the tiles and local infrastructure challenges. While those issues were unfortunately beyond our control, we understand how they may have impacted your experience, and we truly regret any inconvenience. Thankfully, the water issue was found prior to your group running out of this very valuable amenity and we were able to resolve that one. We also want to acknowledge your comments regarding communication and tone of it. We always strive to be as responsive and accommodating as possible, and we're glad we were able to connect you with excellent chef services after the follow-up. Part of the conversation that was left out, was that your group tried to cancel one of the chef services day of, and we spent the better part our Sunday morning, and then evening (which is a Costa Rican rest and family day), trying to work around it, and make something work for both your group and the chef. There was not an acknowledgment of gratitude in that entire day, even when we offered ourselves to purchase the food made for the additional people that could not make the evening last minute. I believe that says more about you, than us. Regarding the birthday massage arrangements—our goal was to assist with very short notice and tight timing constraints, for a fun birthday surprise, which did create some logistical challenges. While we worked hard to try and make it happen, we're sorry if the communication came off as anything less than helpful during that process. We appreciate your feedback and the opportunity to clarify this perspective, especially given that we work so hard to make each guest's stay as amazing as possible. Thankfully, most of our guests are super appreciative and kind towards our gestures and hard work. Thank you again for choosing to stay with us.

Unforgettable stay with family in a beautiful setting

Séjour inoubliable en famille dans un cadre magnifique

My group and I had a blast! Loved how spacious the home was. The owners were also very helpful with coordinating transportation. Would definitely come back.

We had a wonderful stay at this home. It was so beautiful and very well decorated. The kitchen was fully equipped and well stocked with dishes, cookware and spices. Plenty of towels and paper goods. The host, Shawna, was extremely responsive and friendly. She had wonderful suggestions for things to do and drivers etc. the home is so nice you almost don’t want to leave! There is some construction going on just below the house but you cannot hear it inside or around the pool so it isn’t bothersome. You do notice it when you are on the patio extension but it isn’t terrible at all. I would recommend this house to families and friends and I hope to stay there again soon!

Everything was Great!! From check-in to checkout, the communication was seamless. We even set the alarm off a few times by accident and had to notify the property managers late at night. Be mindful, if the alarm goes off, the police will come to check out the premises, every time!! There were five of us celebrating a birthday. The place was clean and spacious. Both Chefs we used had everything they needed to prepare all of our meals. We also cooked one day and lacked nothing! The views are breathtaking. The pictures don't do this place justice! An absolute ten out of ten!! Stop reading review after review and book now!! You won't be disappointed. Things to note: The driveway is quite steep and it's a bit of a hike to take the trash out. I'd stay here again in a heartbeat!💕

This home was perfect—amazing view, spotless, fully equipped, and in a superb location. As a vacation rental manager, I’m extra picky, and there was nothing to complain about here. The location allowed us to explore stunning beaches and charming towns, including Playa Grande, Playa de Paratas, Playa Flamingo, Brasilito, Playa Conchal, and Tamarindo. A little coffee shop across the street offers gluten-free baked goods and fresh smoothies. We loved starting our mornings on the balcony off the primary bedroom, spending afternoons in the pool, and watching breathtaking sunsets from the pool deck. Communication with the host was fast and seamless. We had a wonderful trip and truly appreciate the owner sharing her home with us!

Shawna and Mariesa were both great hosts and very responsive. The house is beautiful and fully stocked. My family of eleven stayed for a week and we had everything we needed. Enjoyed using the chef recommended, and the local restaurants. Would love to stay again!

Stayed here for a corporare event and we had a wonderful time. No mold issues and everything was so clean. I felt proud to host my team at this property.

We were a a family of 9 and 3 generations. This beautiful house exceeded expectations from the published photographs, with plenty of space to find some private time. Walking in the door was a ‘wow’. Facilities were excellent and obviously new. Every need for cooking was provided for. The BBQ area was a favourite dining area. Great location for accessing many quality beaches. A thoroughly enjoyable holiday.

We had the absolute BEST time at Casa Victoria. This AirBnB was worth every penny we paid (and the value of those pennies was spot on!!!!). The home itself was spectacular - clean, comfortable, and in the most lush and private place. We felt so very safe, with double gates to the community and an alarm system on the house - we, a group of nine women, never worried for our safety once. The view is spectacular: ocean, beaches and boats on one side of the house, and lush green mountains on the other side. Further, the team behind Casa Victoria was just unbelievable to work with. They were so responsive, helpful and FLEXIBLE. They allowed us an early check in and a late check out (this may have bene luck but either way it made such a difference to us), and truly answered any need we had. We had decided not to rent cars while we were here, and given this home is up in the mountains, would recommend that anyone coming does that :). 10/10 recommend for anyone visiting CR. Pura Vida!

My favorite Airbnb so far! Mariesa’s place was an absolute dream! Everything was spotless and felt very clean. The pool was our favorite place to be and the views were incredible! It was situated in the perfect location as we were only 25 min from Tamarindo and 20 min from Playa Flamingo where we felt great restaurants and activities. The home is extremely spacious and they have absolutely everything you need. Thanks for the wonderful stay!!

This house was BEYONDDDDDD the best we have ever rented! So beautiful, chic, spacious, and clean! The view was to died for. And the atmosphere was so chill and relaxing! We have to come back!!!!!! It was AMAZING!

They were extremely helpful and attentive.  Shawna helped us book great excursions and a chef.

This house is just as described. It’s a beautiful location with amazing views. The kitchen was stocked well with dishes, pots, pans, and seasonings. We decided not to rent a car and used Uber and a private driver to get around. For reference, it’s about a 25 min(~$15) Uber ride to Tamarindo where there are lots of touristy shopping and dining options.  We would definitely stay here again!

Truly impeccable villa of high quality and stunning views

Vraiment impeccable villa de grande qualité et vue imprenable

Mariesa's home is architecturally beautiful and situated on a hill with gorgeous ocean views. The bedrooms in the home feel private and the common areas inside and out are large for everyone to enjoy together. We especially loved the covered patio with fans as it was perfect for sitting outside all day even in the hot sun! The kitchen was fully stocked, and we enjoyed preparing a few meals at home, but it was also a quick drive to several delicious restaurants. We spent the mornings on the beach walking and watching surfers and then afternoons by the pool. Playa Grande is also a great home base for local excursions. Mariesa provided very detailed check-in instructions and the home had excellent privacy and security features. We cannot wait to come back one day!

Beautiful, clean home with gorgeous views and minutes to the beach. Directions and communication was above and beyond.

Enjoyed our stay here . Beautiful home . 20 minutes from tamarindo . Close to a lot of beautiful beaches .

Look no further!  This home and the grounds are stunning, dramatic and captivating in every imaginable way.   Our family of six adults, four teenagers and three grade schoolers enjoyed private and ample bedroom and bath spaces.  Both inside and outside the home,  there are at least six places where the grandchildren could gather for their board games.  The kitchen, living room and upstairs lounge are very large and easily accommodated eight or more of us at a time.  The new and luxurious home is a modern architectural and engineering marvel; every finish and detail is indulgent in its beauty.  The large home, its pool deck and the awesome covered “choza” with plush seating for 10 and massive gas grill seem scaled to its perch high above Playa Grande and commanding views of the Pacific Ocean and the beach at Tamarindo.   We took short day trips to the beaches at Avellanas, Conchal, Playa Grande, and Tamarindo.  We thank owner Mariesa and our host Shawna  — you gave us lifelong memories!

My stay at this villa was absolutely wonderful! The cleanliness of the place was impeccable, and it truly felt like a home away from home. The host was incredibly responsive and made sure that all of our needs were met throughout our stay. The view from the villa was simply stunning - breathtaking sunsets over the mountains and a peaceful atmosphere that made it the perfect place to unwind and relax. We enjoyed spending time on the spacious balcony, taking in the beautiful surroundings. Furthermore, the villa was well-equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. From the fully stocked kitchen to the cozy living areas, we had everything at our fingertips. It was clear that the host had put a lot of thought into making sure guests have a seamless and enjoyable experience. I would highly recommend this villa to anyone looking for a peaceful retreat with a spectacular view and exceptional hospitality.

This place is stunning!!!  The views are beyond amazing & the Host thought of everything to ensure an amazing stay.  House was immaculate!   The pool & hot tub were used frequently & enjoyed immensely.   The location is close to everything but also extremely private.  Can’t wait to return!!!

Our entire experience from booking to check-out could not have been better!  Mariesa was friendly and responsive, even offering incredible recommendations for sightseeing, dining, & excursions. The property was pristine and the views were simply stunning. The location was perfect, offering privacy for quiet afternoons, all while being close to great dining options and so many fun family activities. We had a wonderful experience and cannot wait to come back!

Super super recommended!! The place is spectacular, an incredible view and with many facilities; from when we arrived until we left, they were super attentive to us!! We hope to be back soon!!!

Super super recomendado!! El lugar es espectacular una vista increíble y con muchísimas facilidades; desde que llegamos hasta que salimos fueron super atentos con nosotros!! Esperamos volver pronto!!!
