Vacation rentals in Barra Honda de Nicoya

Patric and Zeidy were very responsive in returning e-mails and keeping us informed with all dates and times for our trip. We had the great pleasure of meeting the owners of this beautiful place/Charlie and Paula. How special it was to be picked up from the airport by Charlie. He welcomed us with open arms, took us to a grocery store to get supplies for our first day and oh my god made us a fantastic breakfast. It was truly a great experience meeting so many nice people and not to forget Rob who would always help you out at any time of the day. We had 27 days of heaven in a very special place.

The apartment was great and we loved having the pool right outside our door. This made it extra convenient when kids were napping (the beach is also only a 5 minute walk away). We were originally going to stay in Flamingo but it was more expensive and busy. We ended up liking Potrero more than Flamingo and would recommend! The hosts are very responsive and even arranged a pack n play for us which was very nice and super helpful. We had an issue with ants in one bedroom, but the hosts were quick to arrange for the exterminator to come out the next day. When visiting Costa Rica, you have to expect some insects, but it was nice they were willing to do that for us. We had a rental car so it was nice having parking, but you can also walk to the local restaurants, brewery, shops, etc within about 10-15 minutes.

We can’t say enough about how wonderful our stay was at Pura Vida house. Jorge (even though he was in the US at the time) was always available to answer our questions and provide assistance. And trust me, we had many questions ;). His tips on our excursions were spot on and we loved every one of them. Even when my 13 year old came down with a double ear infection on a Sunday, Jorge called the dr on call at the local clinic to have him taken care of. The drivers that he supplied for us were all wonderful and knowledgeable. Chef Antonio was also amazing! The beach club and the jw Marriott were about a 5 minute golf cart away and was perfect for our family. Tamarindo was about 15 minutes so pretty close by. We truly enjoyed the luxury’s of the house and can’t wait to go back again! Pura Vida Jorge and Stephanie!

We truly enjoyed our time here exploring the local area. The kitchen was well equipped-and with the pool being steps from your patio door- there was no need to leave the gated community some days! We found we did not need a golf cart for our week long stay- the beach was only about a ten minute walk along the main streets with lots of shops and restaurants. Highly recommend the catamaran tour with marlin’s tours (I think is the name)- we had a great day on the water!! Overall we loved our stay at Mary’s place the weather was great and the accommodation were very relaxing with the pools in the gated community being quiet and not over crowded We really appreciate the hosts accommodating an early check in- we were super grateful for this after a long overnight flight!

This place has everything you need! Spices, beach chairs and towels! Well stocked for a great stay. However there is construction going on next door that we were unaware about. Otherwise this place was great!

Loved staying at Mari’s place! Super peaceful, relaxing and convenient. We would definitely stay again!

Spectacular views, everything was exactly as described. Incredibly good value. Just steps to the beach. Host was friendly and very responsive. Very walkable to the iconic Father Rooster restaurant right on the beach.

Great spot right in the middle of marbella easy walk to the store. the beach is a little further but still walkable. Red has e-bikes for rent that make everything a-lot more accessible. The pool and half pipe are awesome additions! Red was a great host can help you with anything you need. Already planning our next trip here! Cant wait to come back to this amazing place.

The house is beautifully decorated and really a place to feel good. Especially the pool invites you to relax – you can even watch birds! The beach is very close which is super convenient. A special highlight was visiting a friendly dog – the family lovingly takes care of stray animals in the area, and part of the income even goes to an animal welfare club. So to stay here is not only beautiful, but also supports a good cause. The house was immaculately clean – not a single bug in the whole house! We felt completely comfortable and welcome and can absolutely recommend this place.
