2BR cottage in Playa Grande

A natural setting in Playa Grande - Cottages for Rent in Playa Grande, Provincia de Guanacaste, Costa Rica

Beautiful place in the middle of vegetation and a few minutes from Playa Grande.

Precioso lugar en medio de una vegetación y a pocos minutos de playa Grande.

Magical space! Perfect distance from the beach to spend a day playing in the waves and then retreat back to the jungle to enjoy this peaceful and well thought out cottage. Everything is exactly as pictured, and yet somehow even more beautiful in person. My kids loved the big swimming pool as well as having their own private plunge pool, and we appreciated every extra touch such as pool and beach toys as well as games, books, and wildlife guides. I took as many photos to capture the stunning aesthetic of this cottage as I did the howler monkey families, many birds, and other wildlife that passed by. Thank you for such a wonderful stay!

I'm so glad to hear that the toys, books, and so on were enjoyed. Thank you

We loved Sophie’s little piece of paradise nestled in the trees which felt so private and peaceful but was also very close to amenities like restaurants, shops, groceries and the beach. The place is super well laid out and was comfortable and had everything we needed. The plunge pool was a bonus but the shared large pool was our sons’ favourite! We saw lots of wildlife, coati’s, monkey’s, squirrels, birds and butterflies. We would absolutely stay here again and loved our time in this area. Also to note, the beach at Playa Grande is a national park so it’s free from hotels, restaurants and shops which makes it super peaceful and pristine. Great place to spend some time and marvel in the beauty of Costa Rica!

Our stay at Sophie's place was perfect! Ahead of time she gives you all the details you need to know. Sophie was away during our visit so unfortunately we didn't get to meet her but her co-host Cristina was very helpful with any questions we had. She scheduled us wonderful massages right on the terrace at the house. I highly recommend! We had a family of Howler monkeys visit for a few hours one day which was really fun to watch! We enjoyed the Playa Grande area and would come back again!

this place is even more beautiful than the pictures. we love, love, loved it! the outdoor space is relaxing, open and clean. love the little wading pool. highly recommend.

Thanks, Brooke—it was a pleasure to have you here.

This Airbnb was beautiful, about 20-25 minutes to beaches and restaurants. The place is amazing and relaxing. Only issue is that there were a lot of mosquitos/insects inside and outside of the place due to being surround by trees/nature. I would recommended this place if you have no issues with having insects. Overall, very nice place and I would say the location is good.

Gorgeous villa, loved hearing the birds in the garden!

The pictures don’t do this place justice. The space is well thought out, the balcony that gives to the jungle is amazing. The bird sounds, the monkeys eating the leaves etc… The recommendations were also spot on, great host, everything well organized.

Wonderful trip ! Beautiful and clean space ! Highly recommend

The place is amazing. It has a lot of privacy and all the amenities you need. The shared space is beautiful and allows you to relax. A place suitable for families or couples. Sophie is very helpful and an excellent host.

El lugar es increíble, cuenta con mucha privacidad y con todos los servicios que se necesita. El espacio compartido es precioso y permite relajarte. Lugar apto para ir en familia o en pareja. Sophie es muy atenta y excelente anfitrión.

Sophie's villa exceeded our expectations, and we cannot wait to return to this magical place. Kinamara suites were lovely, clean, well decorated, and in the middle of a perfect peaceful setting. Sophie provided many useful tips and suggestions, and helped to make our wedding anniversary an absolute dream. Pura vida!

We had a really lovely stay. Sophie was incredibly responsive, and check-in was smooth and easy. The property is beautiful, serene, well-maintained, and clearly designed with care. We enjoyed spending time both inside and outside, and the beds were very comfortable. The space was thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed; we made breakfast most mornings, and even the coffee provided was great. Small touches, like quality dishes and beach items available to rent, really stood out. One highlight was the wildlife: we saw howler monkeys several days, which was such a unique experience though they can be loud early in the morning! One thing to note: while accurately described, the location isn’t walkable to coffee or restaurants, so a car or transportation is important. Overall, a peaceful, well-appointed stay with a very attentive host.

The house is gorgeous – we felt really comfortable! The view of nature from the terrace is amazing, and the shared pool is fantastic! The location is perfect for getting to the nearby beaches and then spending the evening “in peace” on the terrace!

Das Haus ist wunderschön - wir fühlten uns richtig wohl! Der Blick in die Natur von der Terrasse ist genial und der Gemeinschaftspool genial! Die Lage ist perfekt, um die Strände in der Umgebung zu erreichen und danach wieder den Abend „in Ruhe“ auf der Terrasse zu verbringen!

Such a peaceful stay. Great stay, would highly recommend. Sophie was very communicative and helpful.

Kinamira, Sophie and family, thank you! The place you have created is so special and is a haven from the wild and crazy world. Sophie is a warm and kind host, it feels like staying at a friend's place. The guide Sophie shared with us had great recommendations, she was quick to answer any questions we had and we will miss her! We stayed in Milos and having a beautiful little cottage with our own pool and view of the howler monkeys playing in the trees was incredible. We met fellow guests Don and Teri at the big pool and enjoyed a couple afternoons there, bobbing around in the pool and enjoying the sunshine. This was our first trip to Costa Rica and staying at Kinamira made it such a fabulous first experience, we would recommend to anyone!

This place was absolutely amazing!!! Sophie great to work with and was quick to respond to any questions. The home itself is stunning ! You will love it there!!!

Sophie's place was super cute, private, and very relaxing.  We enjoyed our time, loved the pool, and would definitely recommend.

We had a great stay with our children exploring playa grande. The location was perfect and everything went as planned. We really enjoyed our three nights here and Sophie was a great host!

This place was a total dream! Better than what we expected honestly. Location was perfect, surrounding area beautiful calm and serene. The bungalow was spacious clean and beautifully decorated with a great energy. Self check in went smooth and communication with Sophie was always consistent and have me breath recommendations for food and activities. The only thing I saw missing was a full length body mirror would definitely be helpful but that’s just something extra for the women :) everything else was on point! Thank you so much my bestie and I had a surreal time!

This place was amazing. great vibes, a fantastic kitchen, and super comfortable inside and out. I’m already planning to redesign my back patio to look like Milo’s. I stayed here with my two kids (12 & 14) and was honestly surprised by how nice it was when we arrived. The pool is shared by only three suites, and we usually had it to ourselves. The hammock, pool and overall setting made it perfect for relaxing but it also worked great as a home base for day trips. And don’t let the road in fool you. Many side roads in Costa Rica are rough and this one is not that bad. Once you reach the top of the hill, it’s absolutely worth it.

Sophie was an amazing host — very responsive, welcoming, and easy to communicate with. Her property was peaceful and conveniently located just a few minutes’ drive from restaurants and the beach. My friends and I especially enjoyed relaxing by the pool during our stay. I would definitely recommend renting a car to make getting around easier. We had a wonderful time and would love to come back in the future!

We loved our stay! The place was exactly as described. Directions were great. We appreciated the remote location while still having a few other guests around. Sophie was attentive and very kind throughout our stay. We stayed for 4 nights, which gave us plenty of time to explore the area, discover different beaches, and try several great restaurants. The space had everything we needed to prepare meals at home. We especially enjoyed making smoothies with the fresh local fruit we purchase along with fruit provided by Sophie. Since it was hot, we often explored in the mornings and then spent our afternoons relaxing on our patio, enjoying the small pool and occasionally taking a dip in the community pool. We loved that the beach was just a five-minute drive away, making it easy to go for a walk and watch the sunset. Seeing howler monkeys right from our patio for a couple of days was such a special bonus. We highly recommend and consider it on the top of those Airbnb's we have visited.

amazing spot! clean and had everything we needed! we hope to come back! location is great and close to the beach and food! Sophie was easy to connect with and a wonderful host:)

Sophie’s place was truly special. The high-end interior and architectural design set it apart from the typical Airbnb experience. Every detail felt thoughtfully curated, creating a space that is both elegant and inviting.

If you’re looking for a peaceful retreat surrounded by nature—where you fall asleep to the sound of crickets and wake up to what feels like a hundred different birds singing—this is the place for you.

On top of that, the clear, step-by-step instructions and warm, attentive support throughout the stay made everything effortless and welcoming. It genuinely felt like a home away from home

Beautiful place to stay in lovely Playa Grande.

We stayed here for 2 nights and found it extremely relaxing and peaceful. We loved the treehouse vibes that felt off the beaten path. Sofie was very present and helpful. The pool was beautiful and private as well. Thank you Sofie! Would recommend.

Sophie's private getaway was a great place for my family of 4. Her MILOS cottage was spacious, aesthetically beautiful, clean and stocked with essentials. The private pool was the best part for my kids, and the communal pool was the perfect place to meet other guests. Sophie was always available to answer my questions and her guidebook was very thorough. She was present at the property but never overstepped. She was great to talk to! We used one of her recommended tour operators for the Tamarindo Estuary and they were great as well. I highly recommend staying here! It's not walkable to the beach but a very short car ride away. We didn't have a car and Ubers were available but hard to get in a timely manner. Overall we had a great time and would book again, but rent a car.

We absolutely loved our stay here. The outdoor space was a highlight — the private plunge pool was perfect, and relaxing on the outdoor couch while listening to the sounds of nature was incredibly peaceful. One day, a whole troop of howler monkeys passed through, and we were able to watch them right from where we were sitting. It was such a special experience.

Playa Grande itself is an adorable town, and everyone we met was so friendly and welcoming.

Sophie was an amazing host and couldn’t have been better. She was super responsive, attentive, and genuinely eager to make sure we were enjoying our stay. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the area.

Kinamira is perfect! The pool, and outdoor living room is the koolest thing ever!! Comfy bed, squeaky clean everything! Nice kitchen wares, pots n pans too! The grounds are lovely, lots of nature and serenity! If you get the chance to do watercolor with Sophie, do it… so fun! I’d 100% come back to this listing without hesitation!

Great location! Sophie was very helpful and responsive. We saw monkeys in the trees and loved how connected to nature it felt. Close to the beach, peaceful jungle sounds at night, and an overall great stay 🌿🐒

Amazing oasis. Very well designed and well maintained. Enjoyed every bit of it. The private living room water area and the awesome infinity shared pool. Sophie is very kind and attentive to everyone. Highly recommended.

Sophie’s place was absolutely lovely. We looked forward to coming back to space every time we left for an outing. The pool was a perfect refresh after the beach. The bed was divine( We haven’t slept that well in a long time) and the indoor/outdoor design layout made for a dreamscape. The space was super private too. We loved our stay. Thank you Sophie!

Heavenly retreat in a lovely private setting .You feel immersed in the landscape with giant sliding glass doors opening onto the jungle setting.Lots of tropical birds to greet you in the morning.The patio w private pool was a luxury to enjoy.Sophie was a helpful and responsive host .The place was squeaky clean ad the decor was lovely.Comfy beds and pillows. The house was beyond our expectations. Truly a mini paradise.

Really enjoyed staying at this beautiful home in Playa Grande. I appreciated how clean the home was. Sophie personally greeted us upon arrival and walked us through the home. I love that there was a private and public pool. Definitely would return to this home!

Sophie's place is beautiful! The warmth it has cannot be conveyed in the photos! It has a very good location, close to many beaches, it is ideal if you have a car. We had everything we needed for a comfortable stay! I would definitely come back, everything was a ten! Thanks Sophie!

El alojamiento de Sophie es hermoso! La calidez que tiene no puede ser transmitida en las fotos! Tiene una muy buena ubicación, cerca de muchas playas, es ideal si estás con auto. Tuvimos todo lo necesario para una estadía cómoda! Sin dudas regresaría, todo de diez! Gracias Sophie!

Very nice place. Sophie is a very responsive, excellent host.

We had a wonderful week with our family in this home. Sophie is a fantastic host: she responds quickly and is very helpful. Beautiful, quiet location in the middle of nature, with lots of animals and beautiful plants around the house. The pool was wonderful and a great success with our children. Highly recommended.

Wij hebben met ons gezin een heerlijke week gehad in deze woning. Sophie is een fantastische host: ze reageert snel en is erg behulpzaam. Prachtige, rustige locatie midden in de natuur, met veel dieren en mooie planten rondom het huis. Het zwembad was heerlijk en een groot succes bij onze kinderen. Zeker een aanrader.

I felt at peace as soon as I got through the gate. It is off the beaten track and I recommend thoroughly reading her instructions in the chat before you set off. It is very clean and at one with nature. Sophie was so welcoming and friendly.

True paradise. Looks exactly like the photos and Sophie is so helpful. Can’t wait to go back!

Great pool, a beautiful apartment... style and charm

Toller Pool , ein wunderschönes Appartment ...Stil und Charme

My family & I stayed at Kinamira suites for three nights and had a great experience. First off, Sophie is a fantastic host. From sending clear instructions prior to check-in, personally greeting us upon arrival and checking in with us throughout our stay she made us feel very welcome. Our villa, Milos, was extremely clean. We witnessed her bringing freshly washed blankets/comforters to our room upon our arrival. We appreciated that the comforters were freshly cleaned between guests. The villa is very unique. We loved sitting on the patio listening to the sounds of the jungle. The private plunge pool was great but nice to have the option of a larger shared pool as well. The villa is extremely private. Location is tucked away from any road noise but close enough to many restaurants and the beach (~5 minute drive). I would highly recommend Kinamira suites & hope to return someday!

Very nice place, the pool was nice with a great view.

Our stay far exceeded our expectations. The location was beautiful, and the pictures do not do this little piece of paradise justice. From waking up to the songs of the birds, relaxing in the hammock, and having relaxing spaces we loved our stay! Sophie’s guide book was incredibly helpful, and each chosen experience did not disappoint. We will definitely be back!

Beautiful cottage and a nice host. Sophie is a nice woman and comes to have a chat with you. We had a nice evening and slept wonderfully.

Prachtig stulpje en een leuke host. Sophie is een leuke vrouw en komt even een praatje met je maken. We hebben een leuke avond gehad en heerlijk geslapen.

We loved the place, the place is beautiful, breathtaking paradise, our private villa with the pool (myos) was perfect.

Nous avons adorer la place l’endroit est magnifique paradisiaque à couper le souffle notre villa intime avec la piscine ( myos) était parfaite

We enjoyed Sophie’s place so much.  It was cozy and comfortable for our family of 4.  The kids really enjoyed the shared pool area, and so did we.

I can't say enough good things about this location. From the preparation that Sophie put into a guidebook with local recommendations and everything you need for a successful stay to the BEAUTIFUL and unique property - everything was perfectly planned out. The pool and common areas were always clean and stocked with food and drink for purchase. The villas were decorated beautifully and intentionally. Sophie was extremely attentive and quick to respond to questions. She was even able to coordinate massages for us in less than an hour. I highly recommend a stay here.

It was awesome. Thank you very much for everything, Sophie. We will definitely come back to this place. Everything was perfect and exactly as described and shown on the pictures. We were sad we had to leave. The service was excellent and Sophie was always there for us. Thank you for making our time so special.

Absolutely loved my stay at Sophie’s place! The location is unbeatable — close to some of the most beautiful beaches in Guanacaste, perfect for relaxing or exploring the coast. The layout of her space is so well thought out that it actually inspired me to redesign my own place back home. Everything about the setup felt intentional, modern, and cozy. The customer service was top-notch; communication was quick, friendly, and professional from start to finish. It’s rare to find a host who truly cares about making your stay exceptional, but Sophie definitely does. I enjoyed it so much that I rebooked immediately after checking out — that says it all. This will be my go-to spot whenever I return to Guanacaste. 🌴☀️

See you soon :) Thank you so much Wilkie.

It was such a beautiful relaxing place with great jungle views! Sophie was great at communicating and answering any questions!

Kinamira is a place that we fell in love with from the first minute. I would say even before that, because days before, the guide was shared with us, with all the information and recommendations that make a stay more pleasant The place is dreamy, you can breathe peace and tranquility that make you spend incredible days The recommendations are quite accurate and objective... Sophie's service is unique and she does her best to make sure you have a pleasant stay I was very pleased to have been fortunate enough to find this place for a few days on our trip to Costa Rica Thanks for everything.

Kinamira es un lugar que nos enamoró desde el primer minuto, diría que desde antes porque días antes nos comparte la guía con toda la información y recomendaciones que hacen una estancia más agradable El lugar está de ensueño, se respira paz y tranquilidad que hacen que pases días increíbles Las recomendaciones son bastante acertadas y objetivas… La atencion de Sophie es única y hace lo posible por que tengas una estancia agradable Quedé muy satisfecho de haber podido tener la fortuna de encontrar este lugar unos días en nuestro viaje a Costa Rica Gracias por todo

Great place, peacefull, very natural, the private pool and kitchen was awsome. I would definitly love to book this place.

Sophie’s place was amazing! It was everything that you can imagine based on the photos. It was truly incredible and Sophie was great at communicating. I throughly enjoyed our stay and recommend to book here the next time you plan on making a trip to Costa Rica. Pura vida!

Thank you very much, Bianca. It's a pleasure to see you again.

Sophie and her place is nothing but amazing. She was there to welcome us and felt very warm and welcomed. I wish we would have planned differently and stayed an extra night or two. Great home base to see local beaches and then after a long beach day a great place to unwind. My kids did not want to leave. Will be on my list for my next Costa Rica trip! Pura Vida!

Great beautiful place, designed and decorated with a lot of love and attention. From the house, you have a fantastic view of the greenery, and with a little luck, you can also see various animals walking, climb or fly by :-). We have completely relaxed together with our two children who after day 1 already said they wanted to live there! Sophie is a warm and attentive woman, responds quickly and you will receive a very complete guidebook containing all the tips you need for your stay and discovering the area. A place we can recommend to everyone💕

Geweldig mooie plek, met veel liefde en aandacht ontworpen en ingericht. Vanuit het huis heb je een fantastisch uitzicht op het groen en met een beetje geluk zie je ook nog verschillende dieren voorbij wandelen, klimmen of vliegen:-). We zijn helemaal tot rust gekomen samen met onze twee kinderen die na dag 1 al zeiden dat ze er wel wilde wonen! Sophie is een warme en attente vrouw, reageert snel en je ontvangt een zeer compleet guidebook met daarin alle tips die je nodig hebt voor je verblijf en het ontdekken van de omgeving. Een plek die we iedereen aan kunnen raden💕

To Sophie: great stay - we would really like to come again !!! Loveliest place!!!! Sophie is so nice, friendly and a great host!! Merci❤️☀️🦜

The cottage is fantastic, furnished with so much love and detail and very stylish. The reception alone was incredible, Sophie was not there because we arrived late, but she warmly welcomed us with beautiful music and great lighting. You're really comfortable here. I highly recommend this place to everyone!

Das Cottage ist traumhaft, mit soviel Liebe und Detail eingerichtet und sehr stilvoll. Allein schon der Empfang war unglaublich, Sophie war zwar nicht da, weil wir spät angekommen sind, aber sie hat uns mit schöner Musik und toller Lichtinszenierung herzlich willkommen geheißen. Man fühlt sich richtig wohl hier. Man kann diese Unterkunft nur jedem empfehlen!

We had an absolutely amazing stay at Sophie's beautiful Playa Grande property! The cottage was spotless, stylish, and perfectly equipped for a relaxing Costa Rican vacation. The highlight for us was the private pool — our 5-year-old practically lived in it, and it was the perfect place for us to unwind after exploring the area. We loved waking up to the sounds of nature. The location was peaceful and safe, yet just a short drive to the beach, restaurants, and activities. Sophie was very responsive, and made sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We felt completely at home here , and didn’t want to leave! We would come back in a heartbeat and highly recommend this gem to anyone visiting Playa Grande.

We were delighted with our stay at Sophie's The house is very good in every way. The welcome and support of our hosts was more than perfect. Thanks to Sophie and Thibaut

Nous avons été ravi de notre séjour chez Sophie La maison très bien en tout point de vue. L’accueil et l’accompagnement de nos hôtes ont été plus que parfait. Merci à Sophie et Thibaut

A magical, rejuvenating, calm and beautiful place. Everything exudes care: the materials, the details, the comfort. Sophie is warm and very caring. Among our best AirBnB stays. The condo is even more spacious than in the photos... A favorite...

Un lieu magique, ressourçant, calmenet beau. Tout respire le soin : les matériaux, les détails, le confort. Sophie est chaleureuse et très attentionnée. Parmi nos meilleurs séjours AirBnB. Le condoest encore plus spacieux que sur les photos... Un coup de cœur....

Merci beaucoup Baptiste, ravie de vous avoir rencontré.

A fantastic spot, would highly recommend to anyone looking for a great time in Costa Rica.

Great place to experience Costa Rica while feeling right in nature.

We an amazing time staying at Sophie’s. It was possibly more beautiful than the pictures and very peaceful and calm. We stayed with our two kids and they loved the big pool, which we always had to ourselves. The drive to the beach at Playa Grande is only about 5 minutes with some cute cafes and restaurants close by. We enjoyed being a little out of the way and could easily drive to activities and Tamarindo.

Sophie was so easy to work with. She did everything I could have asked and more. Her place was a dream. It was peaceful and tranquil. The layout of the grounds was so perfect. Sophie has thought of everything. There is no detail left out. The decor and atmosphere are absolute perfection. You want to be here. Thank you so much, Sophie!

I loved helping you and meeting you, have fun!

We stayed for 2 nights and we couldn’t recommend both the place and Sophie high enough. It was beautiful, clean, very conveniently located and above all, peaceful. We managed to really rest and forget about everything there. Sophie took care of everything in the most clear and concise way.

We stayed in Milos at Kinamira and were completely swept away by its charm. Sophie’s place is stunning—thoughtfully designed with a beautiful flow and elegant decor. The indoor/outdoor layout strikes the perfect balance between luxury and a deep connection to nature. The private covered patio and small pool made for an incredibly peaceful and relaxing retreat. Our only regret is that we didn’t stay longer.

This was by far the most stunning place ever! I cannot put in words how much we fell in love with Sophie’s place! I wish to return one day again.

This property had everything we could have asked for, and Sophie was a great host! We really enjoyed watching the howler monkeys feed on leaves while we swam in the shared pool. 10/10 would recommend this location!

Our family had a wonderful stay at Sophie’s place. The cottages were beautifully designed with front row seats to Costa Rica’s vibrant nature. Both the private and shared pools were very refreshing in the warm climate and very scenic. The cottage was also very well equipped for us and we appreciated that Sophie left us a high chair and baby cot. Our only regret is that we didn’t stay longer. We’ll just have to come back :)

Sophie’s place was beautiful and such a nice relaxing place. Drivable to nearby beach towns if desired or easy to relax at our personal pool or the community pool for the day. We loved having wildlife nearby and were able to have a monkey family for an evening right outside our balcony. Would stay here again!

Incredible stay. It’s about a 2-hour drive from the airport, and the road is surprisingly good. The location is very secluded, with great privacy, and only birds chirping in the background. The cottage was exactly as beautiful as the photos—clean, spacious, and super comfortable. The pool was perfect, and the location made it easy to get to the beach and Playa Grande town. Sophie and Tibeau were wonderful hosts—welcoming and helpful with great local tips. Highly recommend this place!

Sophie’s place was amazing. A bit tucked away which is how we like it. Sat in the small pool at our casa and played Scrabble while watching and listening to the wonderful animal life nearby!! So peaceful!

We really enjoyed our stay and how quiet and peaceful it was! Sophie was so sweet to us. She even put rose petals out for Lynn’s bday!

The suite was lovely, the perfect retreat after a long day of hiking and exploring. Everything was immaculate, and the location was perfect. Within a 5 min drive to restaurants and activities.  Would definitely come back again!!

Our time at Sophie’s breathtaking MILOS was pure perfection. From the meticulously designed interiors to the tranquil grounds, every detail reflected sophistication and warmth. The space is stylishly decorated with impeccable taste, creating an atmosphere of understated luxury. Sophie and her husband were fantastic hosts. The kitchen was stocked with olive oil, teas and coffee, salt, and top-tier appliances like an ice-making fridge with filtered water, a juicer, and a coffee machine—all with clear instructions for effortless use. The private pool was a refreshing escape under the warm sun. But the true magic came from the unexpected: waking up to playful monkeys right outside our balcony/living area. Watching them from the comfort of MILOS was a surreal and joyful experience, blending luxury with the beauty of nature in the most enchanting way. Needless to say the kids were in heaven!

Sophie's place was great, only a few minute drive to the beach and nearby restaurants, yet it was quiet and peaceful when we returned. Having a small pool in the outdoor area of the apartment along with the larger pool just a few steps away was fantastic. We highly recommend Sophie's place.

Great place, great host. The house is amazing

What an amazing place! Everything was SO great! The welcome note, the coffee provided, the bowl of fruit on arrival, the giant Scrabble game, the kitchen had everything we needed, pool and bathroom towels provided, comfortable beds and pillows. Loved the local handmade products in the shower! The plunge pool was perfect for cooling down mid morning and in the afternoons and evenings. Sophie has created such a beautiful space. There are a few ‘rules’ to follow, but they make for a quiet, private space that will hopefully continue to be well taken care of and respected by all. Was a perfect location for day trips to beaches around the area and activities. It was just the best! Wish we were still there!

This is such a beautiful place. Sophie was very responsive and kind.

Loved our stay! Beautiful, clean, relaxing, helpfull tips and recomendations from the host. Sophie was very friendly and had calming music when we walked in, vacation mode was instant.

Nice place to stay. Close to Tamarindo’s beach and Sophie, she is so sweet.

A real little piece of heaven where nature and calm reign. We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this villa, a real gem. The private pool, as well as access to the common area of the villas, its terrace and swimming pool, constitute a spacious formula combining private and shared moments. The modern and sleek design, as well as the impeccable cleanliness, really contributed to our comfort. The value for money of the Kinamira villas is, in our opinion, simply unbeatable. Ideal location, grocery store and beautiful beaches (Playas: Grande, Conchal, Flamingo, Tamarindo) are a few minutes' drive away, perfect for exploring the surrounding area. Sophie's small touches, always concerned about our well-being, made all the difference. The Villa is a big favorite from our trip to Costa Rica! We'll be happy to go back! A big thank you, Sophie, for your warm welcome. Pura Vida! A true calm & cozy corner in nature. Paradise! Simon

Un véritable petit coin de paradis dans lequel règne la nature et le calme. Nous avons passé un séjour absolument magnifique dans cette villa, un vrai trésor. La piscine privée, ainsi que à l'accès à l’aire commune des villas, sa terrasse et piscine, constituent une formule spacieuse combinant des moments privés et partagés. Le design moderne et épuré, ainsi que la propreté irréprochable, ont vraiment contribué à notre confort. L’offre qualité-prix des villas Kinamira est selon nous, simplement imbattable. Localité idéale, épicerie et de très belles plages (Playas: Grande, Conchal, Flamingo, Tamarindo) sont à quelques minutes en voiture, parfait pour explorer les environs. Les petites attentions de Sophie, toujours soucieuse de notre bien-être, ont fait la différence. La Villa est un gros coup de cœur de notre voyage au Costa Rica! Nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir! Un grand merci, Sophie, pour votre accueil chaleureux. Pura Vida! A true calm & cozi corner in nature. Paradise! Simon

Highly recommend, this is the first place we stayed after getting married at a resort here in Costa Rica and it was the perfect, gorgeous, private stay! Sophie was so kind and friendly, took care of our laundry, and even wrote a personalized note. The first morning we saw a group of about 20 monkeys climbing the trees, the other mornings we woke up to birds and wild life sounds that made us feel like we were in the jungle, but with the protection of screened windows and glass doors. The main bedroom always remained very cool and very comfortable. Please do yourself a favor and book!

Beautiful cottage, even better than the pictures! Extremely spacious and well maintained with great access to the beach and town of Playa Grande. I highly recommend this Airbnb!

I only stayed one night. I wish I could have stayed longer. The place is perfect, and Sophie is very kind. Highly recommended.

We had a wonderful stay at Kinamira Suites. The closest town, Playa Grande, is peaceful, with a beautiful beach and a few cafes a short drive from the rental. Great location for adventures and day trips. The best part was coming home at the end of the day to witness the howler monkeys in the surrounding trees or a hummingbird in the flowers. Thank you for the warm hospitality. We would definitely come back!

Such an oasis just a few minutes from the beach! Sophie was a wonderful host and her guidebook was so useful for planning our vacation ahead of time. All of her recommendations for food, beaches, grocery stores and how to get to the suite were perfect. We loved lounging by the pool all day or in the afternoon after the beach, and viewing lots of wildlife like the Kodi, a fox, skunk and squirrels. We’d love to come back some day!

Sophie didn't miss a thing making this place amazing. We made a wrong turn and she immediately responded to get us back on track. We had a long travel day but within minutes felt relaxed. The local fruit provided served as breakfast all week. The private patio with plunge pool made it a place we never wanted to leave. Sophie is the best.

Stop scrolling and book Sophie’s place now—it’s truly one of the highlights of our trip to Costa Rica! The property is even better than the pictures, offering a relaxing and calming atmosphere that made us never want to leave. During our stay, we were amazed by the wildlife: Howler monkeys (literally right outside!), geckos, coatis, and beautiful birds were a regular sight. The attention to detail that Sophie and Thibault put into this place is absolutely five-star. The amenities were outstanding—a great sound system for enjoying music by the plunge pool, thoughtfully designed lighting for enchanting evenings, and handcrafted toiletries made in Costa Rica with rainwater. These little touches made our stay feel so special. Sophie is an incredible host. She greeted us in person when we arrived, with the place spotless and calming music already playing. To top it off, she welcomed us with a basket of fresh fruit and snacks. It’s hard to imagine a more perfect stay. Highly recommend.

I'm so grateful... This message encourages me to continue doing what I do with love to make your vacation the best it can be. Thank you for choosing us.

We had a beautiful time. The place is super Nice.

Pasamos hermoso. El lugar es súper Lindo.

We really enjoyed our time in Playa Grande and Sophie’s place was the perfect home base. It was close to the beach and restaurants yet private. The well-equipped kitchen allowed us to cook many meals ourselves. We enjoyed sitting on the patio during mornings and evenings. We would highly recommend!

Sophie’s place is incredible!!!  I wish we had longer to stay. Peaceful mountain setting.  Very clean and beautiful outdoor space. Kids loved the pool (both on the deck and larger common space).  Comfortable beds and great space. Highly recommend. Close to playa grande and great setting. Host was easy to communicate with. Thanks Sophie 🙌

Our stay in Kinamira—Milo’s @ Playa Grande was fantastic. Private and beautiful, + close to quiet, low key, surf town. We couldn’t have asked for a better hub for our trip to Costa Rica. Definitely recommend!! You won’t regret booking here, Sophie is the sweetest.

Sophie’s place was fantastic ! Beautiful space , clean, peaceful. I only wish we had more time there. Sophie is a great host!

Very nice stay at Sophie’s place. It’s a little bit of heaven on earth… calm and quite and the ambiance definitely transmits that. Unfortunately the weather was not very helpful for us but we were lucky to have a comfortable ans beautiful place to rest at while it was raining.
