Villa Costa Mar - Ocean View Guard Gated Community - Villas for Rent in Playa Hermosa, Guanacaste Province, Costa Rica

Our family enjoyed the villa and the views of the bay. We had Chef Alfonso prepare breakfast and dinner each day which was fantastic! Small town of Playa Hermosa is a 5 minute drive but we enjoyed the peaceful mornings and evenings. Main attractions (ATV, Zipline, larger towns/beaches) were accessable since we rented a car for our stay but a decent 30+ minutes and the Liberia airport is close and super easy to fly international to Los Angeles. The home is nice and in pretty good condition, the turf and bocce were out of commission during our stay.

We are very sorry about the bocce court.  We had a very bad storm the week before and destroyed our court.  We are rebuilding the court and will be up a running brand new in a few days.

We had a great few days at Richard's place! The view was incredibly stunning, and location was close by to some stores for easy access. Luis was a great resource to have on-site and having Edwin, the local chef come out for two days was a real treat. There were 10 of us in total and we felt like we had sufficient space with enough room to spread out a bit!

We had an incredible week at Villa Costa Mar in Playa Hermosa with our family. It truly felt like our own private hotel. The kids loved the pool, the views were stunning, and it was easy to get down to the beach or enjoy great nearby excursions. Edwin, the private chef, was a highlight—his meals were phenomenal, blending local dishes with exactly what we wanted. Service was excellent, and Richard arranged a mid-week refresh, which we really appreciated. A couple of tips: be clear on budgets, meals, and timing with Luis, the house manager, to avoid confusion. There is some normal wear, but it’s clearly a well-loved place. The road has been redone, and access felt very safe and easy. Overall, a great stay!

Our family of 6 adults and 2 small children had a wonderful stay. The view is absolutely stunning from the covered outdoor couch area. The hammocks were also a huge hit.

We loved it! It's a very comfortable, beautiful house, the photos don't do it justice. Large rooms, comfortable beds and pillows. The view is a spectacle, it's the most beautiful thing of all. The house has all the amenities, a large and deep swimming pool for both children and adults. Nearby you will find supermarkets, restaurants and highly recommended beaches. Thank you so much. We hope to go back!

Nos encantó! Es una casa muy cómoda, hermosa, las fotos no le hacen justicia. Cuartos amplios,camas y almohadas cómodas. La vista es un espectáculo es lo más lindo de todo. La casa cuenta con todas las comodidades, una piscina grande y de buena profundidad tanto para niños como para adultos. Cerca encuentras supermercados, restaurantes y playas muy recomendadas. Muchas gracias. Esperamos volver!

The view is STUNNING!!! The layout of the house is lovely, especially if you are traveling with multiple families. The host is very responsive and has wonderful recommendations in the area. The gentlemen who lives on the property (separate building), Luis, was very responsive and helpful! It is Costa Rica so there are bugs, but they did end up in the house more than I thought they would. The pool is beautiful, but a little chilly even for the beautiful weather. We loved our stay here and would definitely love to return.

Breath taking views from a beautiful villa. The view absolutely takes your breath away when you enter the home. The infinity pool was perfect for the kids. We took advantage of the private chef, the food was delicious. Highly recommend. The home was very clean. We loved the private setting.

Richard the host was very responsive and flexible with any concerns my group had.  The chef Juan was top notch and the highlight of the trip.  Luis the caretaker, we saw only twice. Day 1 on arrival and last day when departing.  He responded to my text however would have liked if he checked on my group more.  The house was very beautiful and the views were amazing.

We had a great stay here with both grandmas and our 6-year old twins. Felt comfortable and of course the best part of the house are the amazing views! We loved exploring different beaches and then coming back every afternoon to that amazing pool and view. You could just book and never leave the house! Highly recommend bosco tour sunset cruise that Alan set up for us. It was a highlight of our trip! Juan was very responsive and had many helpful tips. Of course, being in the rainforest and rainy season the bugs and insects were everywhere, so come prepared for that. ( I wasn’t). Thank you for a great stay!

Great stay in Costa Rica, short drive to everything. House was a perfect set up for our big group and was very comfortable

Beautiful comfortable home with amazing views. All of the staff were amazing and kind they made us feel right at home. I would definitely recommend this villa to anyone staying in Guanacaste. It was very clean and the staff was always helpful with anything we needed. It was our first time visiting Costa Rica and we will definitely visit it again and highly recommend. All of the tour recommendations were top-notch.

We just stayed for a week over Spring break, liked the house but did not love it. While the view is really nice it’s a little hard to get to, up some steep hills on a very poor dirt road (even harder when you try and get back at night). Not sure on exact difference but it could be .75 miles just to get down to the main road, just took longer than expected. It’s close to playa Hermosa and probably 15-20 minutes to Playa Coco. We had chef Juan come 3 times and he was definitely a big highlight of the trip. He made some memorable meals and even better fresh fruit margaritas. It was nice to stay in at night with the kids and not have to deal with driving back down the dirt road! The house is more dated than in the pictures. The golf greens were fun but poorly maintained and the bocce court has not been used or updated in a long time. We had some issues with ants the first night but Luis came and sprayed the next day which made things better. We loved how big the house is, plenty of space f

This villa was an incredible experience. Caretaker Luis was there for the checkin process welcomed us and made it super easy. Juan  is a professional chef 💯, highly recommend three meals a day. All the staff did an amazing job and made us feel like home. The views are insanely beautiful! You wake up to the nature with the best view of the Pacific Ocean. Very clean home everything works. Very private and peaceful.

The view from the house and the chef Juan truly made this experience for us!! Juan was truly so amazing and his food was absolutely delicious! He was also so kind and patient with the kids!

Beautiful location, view is absolutely stunning! Very spacious accommodations for a multi-family trip. Not a deal breaker, but keep in mind the road up to the home is a dirt road that was being dug up every day. The expectation is to be waiting for periods of time for them to clean the road of the construction dirt piles to be able to pass. There is also a VERY loud security alarm that goes off whenever the power goes out (which is daily) that we knew nothing about. This led to a 3am wake up the first night, scouring the house to see if everything was ok and if we were safe, having no idea what it was, or how to disable the alarm. The apartment home on the property also did not have hot water in the shower for the duration of the trip. All in all, an amazing place- just a few things to consider when traveling with little kids. Beautiful monkeys on the property daily as well.

This was our second stay and we hope to be back again. We had a great time swimming in the pool, playing bocce ball, and enjoying the beautiful views.

Our family of 6 adults and 2 kids had an excellent stay at Richard’s villa. The property was exactly as described. The loungers are in need of replacement with more comfortable cushions (a previous guest had also mentioned this). The property is well maintained by Luis and his wife and Luis was very responsive to our needs and helpful in local matters. A great spot for a family vacation.

Wonderful property and location. We will definitely return! Luis, the onsite caretaker is extremely accommodating, helpful, and a great resource for anything needed. Isabel, the chef was amazing! We had the most wonderful meals! Richard was extremely helpful prior to our arrival and always responded quickly. We also utilized Alan for excursions which were also amazing.

The view from the house is priceless! Sitting in the pool and looking at the view was a highlight of our trip!

The Villa is beautiful and spacious. Very comfortable beds! The concierge Louis  was very prompt and helpful! The chef was amazing!! The view is spectacular. We got to see monkeys right on the premises. Very convenient to grocery stores and restaurants. Minutes to the beach.

We loved our stay at Richard’s place: we had an incredible time! Juan (the chef) was AMAZING and went above and beyond for my family. Luis was great as well. Very attentive!

This Villa was amazing, beautiful and peaceful. We rented a car, no issues getting around. We hired Chef Juan, and it was amazing. Richard provided a few local restaurants that we also tried, Gingers and Father Rooster again good food! We had a group of 6 and the house had enough room to hangout but have our own space. Definitely recommend staying here. Luis lives just below to help with any needs.

The view was amazing and the pool was the best. We really enjoyed our tine here.

We had an amazing family vacation! Richard’s Villa was beautiful, and the surrounding views, fauna, and wildlife were spectacular! Luis and Juan made our stay so comfortable and meals cooked for us were delicious! Juan is an amazing chef, I would definitely recommend. Richard, thank you for an awesome experience. Pura Vida!

Couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. The view was unbelievable and the pool was fantastic. The whole house was stunning and my family and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Can’t wait to be back!

Our time at Richard's place was truly unforgettable! It's honestly even better than the photos. I never wanted to leave the outdoor space with rocking chairs, infinity pool, and gorgeous sunsets. Each bedroom is essentially it's own hotel room. Our teenage boys felt like kings. Luis the caretaker was very responsive to all our needs and a pleasure to have nearby. I never wanted to leave.

We celebrated our 50th anniversary with our family and loved this incredibly beautiful home! The view is breathtaking and the infinity pool perfect! Our private chef Juan made this trip very special. He presented us with a selection of his specialties and did not disappoint. Not only did he do the shopping and cooking but all of the dishes were done and put away! I’ve never splurged for this service but don’t think I can ever go without a private chef. We probably will never find another Juan but he really made our stay fabulous. Luis (the on-site) caretaker often assisted Juan as did Juan’s lovely wife and son. Luis was there for day to day needs and we found him to be a very good resource. We wanted this celebration to be special and that was delivered 1,000%.

First off, the entire staff at the villa were extremely responsive to any questions I had prior to our visit and during our visit.  The minute we arrived we were greeted by Luis and the beautiful views!  We felt safe during our stay, enjoyed the relaxation by the pool and our wonderful meals prepared by Juan Luis.  We did not rent a car tho used the recommended transportation provided by Rick.  The only time we felt we wished we had a vehicle would be to get to the grocery store - it would be quite a hike especially in the heat to walk to the bottom of the hill.  If we left on excursion, transportation was accommodating to stop at the store for us to pick up a few items.  We woke in the morning to howler monkeys and enjoyed the birds at the villa.  We would recommend a stay at this villa whether it be couples, friends or families!

One of my favorite rentals ever! The house was spacious and clean, the views are unbelievable, and the bocce ball court and putt putt kept the kids occupied when they weren’t in the pool. The caretaker was quick to help us with anything we needed and the chef services were affordable and fantastic. Cant wait to book another stay!

The best vacation ever. The house is great the view is out of this world. The staff was nothing short of amazing. Highly recommend the chef Juan is off the charts. Luis the caretaker took great care of us. We had an amazing time Costa Rica is great and the house made the trip perfect. Thank you for everything.

Amazing place. The views are out of this world. Peaceful with monkeys in the trees and amazing birds. The house is incredible, Juan Luis the chef is amazing and Luis the caretaker is very kind. The outdoor patio and pool is where spent allot of time. And the outdoor dining area is wonderful. And the bocce court was so much fun.

My wife and I and 2 other couples spent 6 great nights at Richard's villa. Gorgeous setting and the views are amazing. Richard was easy to communicate with and always responded quickly when needed. Luis, who was very helpful during our stay, met us and gave a tour of the beautiful home which was very clean and well equipped. A 4x4 is recommended as the drive up to the villa is a bit bumpy but no problem if you take it easy. We had the private chef prepare 2 meals and both were delicious! Close to Coco for beach, restaurants and nightlife as well as many other beaches. We would definitely recommend staying at Richard's villa!

Richard’s place was amazing. Exactly like the photos very private and great location close to so many restaurants. Only about 15 minute drive to all places even beautiful beach.  We walked the road to the bottom of the hill which was great exercise!  The chef was absolutely amazing and would highly recommend having him cook while staying at this home. The food he prepared was truly professional chef worthy! Loved our stay at this location!

this place is PERFECT with great views, quiet in a residence of a few very spaced houses. The view, the pool, the outdoor area to eat, the garden , the amenities well deserve a rating of 5/5. Luis welcomed us and made it with the cook to satisfy us as well as the cleaning at the middle of the week is appreciated. The bedrooms and bathroom have a sea view that gives an incredible feeling every time you wake up. We ate the Pamplemousses picked up in the garden. We were in a green setting with the monkeys, the birds of all the colors , the grasshoppers...You'll have to change the deckchairs , there are 4 left available, we broke a deckchair that was already very torn on both sides A desire to come back soon. thank you for the service offer

ce logement est PARFAIT avec une vue magnifique, au calme dans une résidence de quelques maisons très espacées. La vue, la piscine, le coin à l'extérieur pour manger, le jardin , les équipements méritent largement la note de 5/5. Luis nous a accueillie et a fait en sorte avec le cuisinier de nous satisfaire ainsi que le ménage en milieu de semaine est appréciable Les chambres et salle de bain ont une vue sur mer qui donnent une sensation incroyable à chaque réveil. On a mangé les Pamplemousses ramassés dans le jardin. Nous étions dans un écrin de verdure avec les singes, les oiseaux de toutes les couleurs , les sauterelles....Il faudra Pensez à changer les transats , il en reste 4 de disponible, on a cassé un transat qui était déjà très déchiré sur les 2 côtés Une envie de revenir très vite merci pour cette offre de prestation

The place is extraordinary and taken from a better postcard than in the photos , the house and the garden are very beautiful , nature with its colorful monkeys and birds that always walked in the mornings and afternoons , he slept beautifully , rested and also lived moments with the family to the chef's food who has prepared a good exotic dinner with his wife ,Luis the manager was very attentive to our requests and questions , we were satisfied and happy in that stay. Recommended for his charms and his price.

El lugar extraordinario y sacado de una postal mejor que en las fotos , la casa y el jardín muy bellos , la naturaleza con sus monos y aves coloridas que paseaban siempre en las mañanas y en las tardes ,se dormía de maravilla , se descansaba y también se vivía momentos con la familia a la comida del chef que nos ha preparado una buenas cena exóticas con su esposa ,Luis el encargado estuvo muy atento a nuestras peticiones y preguntas , hemos quedado satisfecho y contentos en esa estadía.recomendada por sus encantos y su precio.

This has to be your first choice when looking for property in Hermosa or Coco. Our group of 6 felt very much at home with all amenities available. The view is spectacular and with golf greens and bocce ball court below, there is always something to do when you want to have a lazy day at home. I highly recommend taking advantage of the chef service. Juan and Ingrid made absolutely incredible meals for us and their menu is quite extensive so you'll never have the same thing twice. Loius, the caretaker, is very responsive and helpful when at the property. Renting a vehicle is a must for this property if you plan on exploring the area. Walking would be possible but it would be a very long journey on steep terrain. Rick, the host, was excellent and responsive. He is very helpful on tips and tricks for making the best out of your trip. Overall a great property, we would definitely go back!

Let me first start by saying that the view from this villa is breathtaking! We were pleased to see that the villa looked just like the photographs-it was spacious and clean. We are a family of 6 adults and everyone had their own bedroom/bath. Luis, the house manger was very sweet and Chef Juan was amazing-he cooked for us every day and everything he made was delicious! We booked all of our excursions with Allan and his company was incredible-they were knowledgeable and courteous. We did not rent a car, so they drove us everywhere we needed to go. The villa is private and felt very safe. I would highly recommend this beautiful home!

This was a fantastic house for our multi-generational family vacation.  Unlike many houses we've rented in the past which had only one or two nice bedrooms and the rest only fit for small children, this house has 4 equally beautiful bedrooms and 5 gorgeous bathrooms so everyone felt comfortable and spoiled.   Richard, the host, was very kind and easy to communicate with.  Luis, the caretaker made our stay super easy.   Chef Juan was remarkable.  He was reasonably priced and his food was absolutely delicious.  It was so nice to not have to shop, cook, and clean up, which allowed us to really relax and enjoy the beautiful yard and pool.  The house was well stocked with everything you might need--from dishes to towels to shampoo.  There are monkeys in the trees around the house.  The location is very private, but there are restaurants, stores, and the beach nearby. Richard put us in touch with Allen, who set us up with the most amazing boat excursion.  Everything was absolutely magical!

This home has a stunning view and everything is just as advertised.  Luis and our chef Juan Luis were absolutely fantastic.  We are very happy we rented this home.

Cannot say anything more than this place was exactly what we were looking for.  Stunning view, beautiful home.  Thank you to Richard, Luis, Alan and the rest of the team for such an amazing experience.  Highly recommend!

A great place to get away and relax. Easy access to Hermosa and Cocos while still being secluded and quiet. The on-site care taker was very responsive and helpful. Perfect vacation!

Incredible Property.  Recently stayed with six adults.  Plenty of room for our group on an absolutely stunning piece of property.  Breathtaking views, very secluded, extremely safe and secure property that the pictures don't do justice.  Everything was wonderful.  Luis the property manager was very attentive and available if needed.  We used the chef for two of the days during our stay and had delicious meals under the covered outdoor dining area.  The rooms were spacious, wifi worked great, awesome built in stereo, fun bocce and golf below, howler monkeys in the trees out front, a few minutes down to the beach, 15 minutes over to Coco Beach for more restaurants if you wanted to branch out.  Highly recommend this property for those looking to unwind.  Wouldn't hesitate for a minute to refer our friends and family here as everything was top notch.

This place has a stunning view! The home, it was comfortable and clean. Luis & Alen were great in helping w/ any questions and excursions we needed to set up. We went ziplining, walked hanging bridges, watched a local make pottery, mud baths, sauna, horseback riding, etc - the concierge crew was fantastic. Along w/ some beautiful beach days & waking up to that gorgeous view, Richards's home is fantastic! The grounds are beautiful! Grocery market right down the street is very convenient! We had some flight issues I forgot to let him know so we accidentally stayed an extra day, he was kind enough to help me w/that accommodation instead of kicking the 8 of us out of the house, we simply paid for an extra night & were very relieved he was so kind to help extend us for a day.  If I had to say anything negative it would be that we didn't have much hot water in the showers & the big slider door outside was very hard to close. Overall, a peaceful, beautiful place to recharge the soul!

The house is a paradise on earth. Everything was perfect. Wonderful stay

This is truly an amazing place. Incredible view, beautiful house, it was perfect for us. I will recommend this property to all my friends and family. Big thank you to Luis and his beautiful wife. Best Regards Erandi

Don’t even bother sifting through the other results in the area. If you have the means, book this house.  I opted to have the private chef prepare all of our meals and arranged for private transportation everywhere.  Worth every penny. There were 8 of us and we literally didn’t lift a finger the entire week.   The house is amazing.  The view is amazing.  The staff assigned to the property are amazing. We had an amazing time relaxing and enjoying the surroundings. Not a single thing to complain about.   Hats off to Richard and Luis, and the rest of the crew.  Absolutely top notch!

Villa Costa Mar was a terrific house for our 4 couples, as every bedroom is comfortable with a big ensuite bathroom, roomy closet and deck. The Villa is exactly as advertised, but the house and view are even better than the photos. The house is very well maintained and cleaned, and is extremely quiet between rooms. It has lots of spaces for guest privacy, or to gather as a group. And Bocce! We would highly recommend hiring their cook. Ingrid and Juan not only made 2 wonderful meals a day, but they did the planning, shopping, serving and cleaning. You will need a rental car, as the access road is too steep and long to walk down into town or to the beach. But the top of the hill location provides a private retreat without close neighbors. The owner Rick is very responsive, before and during our rental. We did have intermittent hot water issues from a new hot water system, and poor kitchen hot water. I’d suggest renters ask if those are resolved. We do though highly recommend the Villa.

This house is beautiful and has the most stunning views! Would recommend to rent your own car.  Dont hesitate to book here!

Beautiful home with top notch service and communication.  Thanks again Rick!

I'm not one that usually leaves reviews but I would be doing everyone a disservice if I didn't say just how wonderful this Villa and the location truly are. We traveled with a group of 8 close friends/family and Richard's home was perfect for our stay. Plenty of room for everyone to have their own private space but areas that promoted gathering together as well. If you have the opportunity to have Cinya cook for you, DO IT! We had her cook for us for the week we were there and it was so nice having her around and her meals were just AMAZING! The caretakers of the property Luis and LeAnn, will be life long friends. Luis was always just a text away and helped us experience much of what makes Costa Rica so unique. Don't pass up his Cacique cocktails. We also took the recommendation of having their tour company handle all our excursions. Alen Murillo was so knowledgeable about the country and we had an absolute blast just laughing and being adventurous with him. I guess in a nutshell, if you have found your way to these reviews and your considering this Villa.....look no further, do it! We will absolutely be back. Muchisimas Gracias a todos los que hicieron que nuestras vacaciones fueran maravillosas! #PuraVida

It is an incredible house, perfect for a large group, and beautiful scenery. Luis and Oso are a great team. We had an incredible time and couldn’t be more grateful to have found such a special place. Recommendation: get a car rental, you will need a car to get around.

Wonderful home and people. Everything was exactly as advertised, except the view is even more beautiful in person. Both indoor and outdoor spaces were really well maintained. Only thing I would note is that the pool water is pretty cold, since there’s no heater and that part of the property sits in shade most of the day. We still enjoyed it though. Just had to warm up first by playing bocce and/or mini golf in the lower grounds :)

Our stay at Richard’s home was amazing. The villa and location are absolutely stunning and the villa caretakers were extremely helpful and kind. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting the Playa Hermosa area.
