Casa Nalu - Perfectly Located in Playa Hermosa - Houses for Rent in Cobano, Puntarenas Province, Costa Rica

It's not easy to find a place in Santa Teresa / Hermosa that's walkable to the beach. Jason's place is a 5 minute walk through the 'jungle', not right on the beach. But easy to get to one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. The house is very modern and updated. The AC works great. The beds and furniture are comfortable. The pool and the rancho are great places to hang out. Note there is not a dishwasher or laundry, but the wonderful caretaker / housekeepers can help with that if needed. Jason gave us excellent recommendations for chefs to come in to cook for the family, and someone to give us surf lessons. These added so much to our trip! There were several issues with the house during our stay, and Jason or the caretaker addressed them quickly and were always available.

Jason and team were incredibly helpful, thoughtful, responsive, professional and friendly from start to finish…from booking to checkout. Place is very well-appointed and super comfortable. We had an amazing week! Can’t recommend highly enough!

Awesome surf house. I wish the rest of my crew could have come…. Only thing missing was more days.

This was our third time staying at Jason's house and each trip is better than the last. This was our first time coming at this time of year and it was as lovely as ever and the gardens were particularly lush and beautiful after the rainy season. Jason is a great host, always very communicative and responsive. The caretakers Walter and Anna are very reliable for any issues that might arise. There were lots of ripe coconuts this time and Walter would crack them open for us to drink! The pool was the perfect temperature when we wanted to cool down in the heat of the afternoon. Amelina came to the house and taught us yoga which we all agreed was top notch. We always surf with Alvaro (Saltwater Surfing). We like to stay in the immediate area as much as possible - breakfast or lunch at Coleur, Plaza Cafe, or Mantaraya. The Super Hermosa has all the groceries we need. The generous living spaces, pool, excellent location, and attentive hosting make Casa Nalu our home away from home

Thank you Lara. November/December have always been my  favorite months to be in Costa Rica. Everything is green and fresh. Thanks for visiting Casa Nalu  again.

Jason’s place was amazing. We were there for a surf trip and the location couldn’t be more ideal - super short walk to the beach. The place is so clean and well kept, the caretaker was very available and helpful while we were there! The pool and outdoor space are great to relax in after a surf session.  We loved it so much, will definitely be back!

My wife and I have been coming to Costa Rica for 16 years. We used to stay in Mal Pais but always found ourselves driving via ATV to Playa Hermosa daily, so we decided to stay where we spent most of our time. On this trip, we brought our two boys (10 and 6), our close friends, and their girls (12 and 8). It was their first time in Costa Rica, and we wanted it to be memorable. Jason, our host, was fantastic, coordinating with us multiple times before our trip to ensure we had everything we needed. We arrived at Casa Nalu after dark & were welcomed by the caretakers, Walter & Ana. The house is stunning, with every detail carefully considered. The pool was perfect for the kids, and the lush property was just as impressive as the interior. The security is top-notch; the property is fenced, and tall native grasses provide privacy as if you're in your little compound. Casa Nalu was the ideal home base, with the beach nearby, Super Hermosa for groceries, and TP8 for amazing pizza!

Amazing property a short walk from the surf at Hermosa. Super comfortable beds, well decorated, with lots of taste. Would recommend

We had an absolutely amazing stay at Casa Nalu. The house is beautiful, the beds are comfortable, the yard is stunning and the attention to detail is above and beyond. Jason helped us out of a sticky situation before we even arrived! The walk to the beach is short and easy with daily monkey visits on the way. We are already planning our return visit. Pura Vida!

Let’s just say we are already planning our trip back. The beauty of Playa Hermosa is hard to put into words - the house sits right on the edge of a jungle path to the most beautiful beach I’ve ever been to. In the morning monkeys would greet us on our path to the surf. The beach itself has warm water,  epic waves and pristine sand. The local restaurants are charming and soooo good - and healthy! The house itself is breathtaking and high quality. We arranged for surf lessons, yoga classes and massages during our stay. The caretakers are kind and accommodating. Jason and his wife were exceptional in their communication so we felt nurtured during the whole travel experience - pura vida! We can’t wait to return.

We had the best time at Casa Nalu! The house is beautiful and super clean and the pool and yard were so nice to hang out at when not at the beach. Jason was super quick to respond to any questions, and helped us with an early check in as well. Thanks again!

A gorgeous place. Perfect spot for the beach, and a good sized pool. The interior is beautifully designed too, we would love to go back!

The house and location are sensational! You can walk to one of the most beautiful beaches in Costa Rica in 3 minutes... you can hardly top! The caretakers also do a great job and Jason gave feedback very quickly. Great to rent surfboards at the property! We will come back!

Das Haus und die Lage sind sensationell! Man ist zu Fuss in 3 Minuten an einem der schönsten Strände in Costa Rica... kann man fast nicht toppen! Auch die Caretaker machen einen super Job und Jason hat sehr schnell Feedbacks gegeben. Toll, dass man in der Unterkunft Surfboards mieten kann! Wir werden wieder kommen!

Wonderful stay at Casa Nalu! The house is pristine. Beds were very comfortable, rooms very suitable for 2 families. We love that Hermosa is still past the beaten patch of Santa Teresa, but you can easily go back to Santa T for shopping and dinner. We loved the easy walk to the beach down the path from the house. Loved walking to Couleur Cafe and TP8 right in Hermosa for awesome food and atmosphere! This was a perfect stay. Thank you Jason, Marina, and Jarvin for all your help! Pura Vida!

Jason was amazing and very friendly - had recommendations for everything and great advice.

This was our second time staying here. Jason and staff are all super nice and helpful. House is very comfortable and kept very clean. Location can't be beat. Everything is perfection. Pura Vida.

Casa Nalu is a gorgeous, well appointed, modern home with wonderful caretakers that kept the place clean and organized. Only a few steps away to the beach and a 5 to 10 minute drive to Santa Teresa. The local supermarket and nearest restaurant is only one block away which is very convenient, especially when we arrived late and needed a quick meal and a few basics from the supermarket. Jason was very responsive and I would highly recommend this place for families. FYI, there is a much smaller 1 bedroom Casita/guest house next-door with its own pool. Looks like it can fit a family of 3 to 4 people.

We had a wonderful time at Casa Nalu. The house is beautiful. The setting is pristine. It is a short walk to one of the most beautiful beaches in the world! Jason is an attentive and helpful host. We hope to come back soon!!

Best possible location in hermosa. Nice house. Would hold 2 families nicely.

Amazing place and super nice people.  Place is better than the pics.  Plenty of room.  Short walk to the beach.  Short stroll to the pizza place or the French cafe.  Can’t wait to come back.

Everything was perfect. Wonderful for our family of five. Highly recommend!

Jasons place is pretty flawless. It’s the epitome of Pura Vida. The property is safe, secure, very well appointed and extremely well cared for. The location is perfect as you are close enough to town for access, but well enough out to feel like it’s your own quiet slice of paradise. You will not be disappointed.

Gorgeous home!!   Steps away from the most beautiful beach.  Jason was very responsive and helpful.  Loved our stay here

Best of the best. Location is perfect. Jason is a considerate and responsive host. His staff are helpful and hardworking (and even with us not speaking Spanish we were able to communicate). The house is calm and peaceful and a retreat from the hot sun in between surf sessions.

It doesn't get any better than this! We loved our stay at Jason's place. Beautifully built home, great location, great staff, great communication. A slice of paradise that we'll be returning to!

Literally perfect location.  Gorgeous house.  Lovely folks helping out on site.  Highly recommended!

Casa Nalu is one of the best houses on the beach. We rented both the Casa and Casita. We loved our time here. Jason is the best host. He was responsive, attentive and hospitable. There are caretakers living on the property so it is very safe. We have a family so the Hermosa Beach location is perfect for us. The beach is quieter than in Santa Theresa and our kids are able to walk over on their own. There is a market and a couple of places to eat very close by that you can walk to. We already booked our stay for next year. Thank you Jason !!

Such an amazing oasis. We stayed in the main house for 10 days with two families (9 total people). It was the perfect set up. We had another family of four friends visit for 5 days and they stayed in the casita next door. It was a perfect set up. The open layout of the living room and kitchen allowed everyone to hang together and eat family style while having privacy and quiet in the bedrooms. The pool and covered area made for the perfect place to let the kids play while the parents chill while keeping a watchful eye on everyone. The short walk to the beach made it easy to sneak surf ins or bring the entire fam to the beach. The waves out front are super fun abs playful. There were surfable waves every day but when the swell hit the 4-7ft range or bigger the fun really began. Playa Hermosa is a well situated from the hustle and ATV bustle of Santa Teresa. TP8 is a great go-to restaurant within walking distance. Jason was a super responsive host and the staff on site were very kind and helpful. We’ll be back - hopefully sooner than later.

Wow! Casa Nalu is really something special! We loved everything about our stay there. Located just steps from the most beautiful surf beach, we rented boards right from the house and walked to and from the beach every morning, and sunset. The home is a beautiful modern design, with custom furnishings. We really loved cooking our meals in the large gourmet kitchen. We only needed to walk up the street for fresh produce and groceries; and Jason helped hook us up with a local fisherman, who took us out fishing for mahi mahi. The pool is the perfect place to cool off in the heat of the day, and was so much fun to play in when the rains came pouring down too. The on site staff Jaxon and Gladys were friendly, kind, helpful, and keep the home and grounds immaculately clean. We are a family of six, and had our grandparents traveling with us. This home slept all 8 of us very comfortable. I really hope we can come back soon and stay at Casa Nalu again and again! Thank you Jason and family for sharing your little piece of heaven on Earth!

Amazing house in amazing location.  As close as you can get to the beach in Santa Teresa, just a minute down a short path to the waves.  House is modern, large and has everthing you need.  Pool space is perfect for post beach lounging and  the bedrooms are well furnished and comfortable.  Will be back with the family soon!

Jason’s place was truly magnificent! The house itself is super stylish and very spacious!! Very well stocked with towels, linens, kitchen stuff. The outdoor area is a dream. We ate many of our meals outdoors in the separate outdoor living/dining area right next to an amazing pool where we spent a lot of time in. Four awesome bedrooms each with a bathroom. The bunk room was perfect for our three kids! The whole layout is very open! Their housekeeper came daily to clean the house and made sure everything was in order. Note that laundry is extra. The walk to the beach was short and gorgeous through a jungle with monkeys and lizards and direct to probably the best surf beach I’ve ever been to. My husband loved it and my boys and I learned to surf there. It was a perfect vacation. Hermosa is amazing and we were walking distance to great little cafes, a surf shop and grocery store. Hope to be back very soon!!

Perfect beach house, just a walk down path to the best surfing beach in the area. Great layout, super comfortable, wonderful staff. Jason was very accommodating and helpful. Would highly recommend.
