Playa Nido Rosa -Beachfront +Pool +Private Palapa
Beautiful off the beaten path home next to the beach. House was beautiful with air conditioning that helped on the hot and humid days. Beach was just across the street which was nice though rip tides were possible so had to swim during certain times of the day to avoid them. Jefferson was always responsive with anything we needed and even offered to do laundry for a small fee which was nice and convenient.

La Casita - Golfito Cottage Home
Un lugar muy lindo y acogedor, perfecto para pasar tiempo en familia

Beachfront pool home located between Jaco & MA.
Si vous cherchez un logement dans un endroit calme et isolé c’est l’endroit parfait au son des vagues et vue sur la mer sur une petite route de terre avec une magnifique piscine et une cours arrière vraiment chouette. Les chambres étaient très confortables et Jenny la manager de la maison est vraiment très gentille. Susan est très réactive au messages et flexible, nous avons vraiment eu une belle fin de séjour au CR :) Le resto Mar y sol recommandé par Susan était succulent. Attention les vagues 🌊 sont très fortes, donc plus difficile à se baigner avec les enfants. Mais Plage exceptionnelle pour prendre de longues marches, comme si on était seul au monde ! Le BBQ est très vieux et usé et donc nous ne l’avons pas utilisé. L’appartement était très confortable nous étions 4 adultes et 2 enfants. Des heures de plaisir dans la piscine :) Épicerie à environ 20 minutes de l’appartement. Situé à 1h de Manuel Antonio :) donc se fait très bien pour la visite d’une journée !

Private Beachfront Rancho & Reserve
this is probably the best kept secret on the Osa peninsula. if you are the type of person not looking for opulence but rather peace and tranquility in a more rugged setting than a lodge, this place is for you. there are no walls. therefore, there will be bugs in your house and there will be bats in your house. there are bug nets for the beds though. if you embrace the experience it offers, it's the best place you could go to in Costa Rica.

🏖 BRAND NEW MODERN 🏖 Home #1 Seconds from Beach
Great communication and location! Would recommend!

Salty House, surf side in Paradise!!!
We had a great stay at this beautiful Airbnb! Clean, cosy, fantastic backyard where you’ll see a lot of animals, good location & easy to check-in. Amelia helped us with everything and made sure we had a pleasant stay, thank you again! Would definitely come back.

Romantic studio 2ppl, 1bed, 1bath
Great remote location for epic surf. Airbnb is modern, well stocked, and you can’t beat being steps from Marbella.

Casa de la Playa- Beachfront Home at Flamingo
If there were more stars to give I would! This place exceeded our expectations! The house was stunning! The layout was perfect. The view was one of the most beautiful I have ever seen! The location of the house on the beach was perfection! I literally could go on and on about this place! I went to Costa Rica to celebrate my 40th birthday and it was the best decision. The concierge referred us to a wonderful chef who came to the house on my birthday to cook for us. The food was delicious! She even sang to us! Anyways this rental was beyond beautiful and comfortable. We will definitely be back here!! Pura Vida!

Dreams At Sea
Pasamos una semana hermosa. Tal como ves en las fotos, este alojamiento es cómodo y bonito. Tiene espacios preciosos como las hamacas, la piscina y una hermosa terraza con vista al mar. Lo recomiendo por mucho!!!

Hermosa Sunset Villa | Oceanview | Private Pool
I’ve been to CR multiple times in Airbnb. This was by far the best place Ive stayed in. Spectacular house, spacing and little things (good kitchen, pool patio everything)…Katie was a great host, responsive and most importantly a really nice person. Highly recommend 🤙🏼

Oceanfront 4BR 3.5 Bath Villa With Private Pool
We had a great time at David's place. There were 7 of us and we had plenty of room between the bedrooms, main living area, back patio and the pool, and the deck above the pool area. Beautiful views and easy access to the ocean. The pool was cleaned every day and the cleaner came twice during our 11 day stay. The kitchen is more than adequately equipped and there was plenty of room for multiple people to be cooking or visiting in the kitchen. The iguana's were everywhere and we enjoyed the two cats that came around regularly. Communication with the house manager was good. She does work a full time job in addition to managing the house so the responses aren't immediate, but they happened rather quickly.. She setup the private chef for us who catered to our various dietary needs. It was delicious! Would definitely stay here again!

Montezuma Firefly Beach House- A Dream Destination
Echtes Dschungel Feeling - wildromantisch - Traumhafte Aussicht aufs Meer- im rustikalem Ambiente- tosende Wellen am Strand- riesiger Garten mit Tischtennis, Pool und vielen Sitz- Liege- und Hängematten zum Chillen - Tierbeobachtungen (Nasenbär, Capewara, Leguane etc…) mehr Costa Rica geht nicht 🤩💯🇨🇷 wie in einem Märchen - unwirklich schön - besonders schön war der Empfang von Ximena, die uns viele Tips für die Gegend und Aktivitäten gegeben hat- Sehnsuchtsort 🌴🏝️

Luxurious Villa Sofia with Private Pool!
Todo estuvo bien durante nuestra estancia, la anfitriona fue amable y atenta, estuvo siempre dispuesta a colaborarnos. El lugar es agradable para descansar y relajarse.

Million Dollar View Villa with Private Pool
My family stayed here for a brief stay and it was amazing! The pictures were spot on to the actual in person view! The inside of the home was large, clean and just beautiful. Plenty of room for us all! The private pool was an absolute gem to have! Highly recommend this place!

Pool, ocean view, walk to beach.
Truly lovely stay. We needed a week of napping and swimming and this place definitely delivered. Very private pool. Fellow vegans - there is tofu at the Super Sol (grocery store within walking distance) and the restaurant Los Almendros had great vegan options (try the carrot/mango margarita🍹). Host is very friendly and responsive - we never needed anything but they still checked in to make sure everything was ok. Will be back for sure!

Casa Tortuga
Beautiful home right on the beach with amazing host who was always right there to assist when needed. The home was immaculate and beds very comfortable. The kitchen was stocked with everything you could need. The living room was a great relaxing spot and my favourite was the patio table overlooking the pool. We loved this home and you can tell the owner takes pride in hosting. We will be back at the first opportunity . Highly recommended. Thank you for an amazing few days!

The Little Beach Bungalow
Our stay was absolutely fantastic through and through. The location cannot be beat as its steps from the most beautiful beach. The back patio was shockingly private and offered a retreat from beach goers. The house its self was stocked with everything you need. It was definitely rustic which we loved but be aware that it has a bit of “glamping” vibe. Daniela was a fabulous host and made every accommodation for us to have the perfect trip and was responsive to all our questions.

Beachfront access tropical chic home
Pros: - Having direct access to the beach was very nice - Being within walking distance of the whole town, with lots of restaurants and a store - The grounds keeper is there everyday, so he can provide you with anything that you need -Best AC we experienced in Costa Rica - Easy drive to Diamante Adventure Park, and well worth the money to do the full day pass Cons: - The days we shared the beach with the front property, felt like we were stepping on each others' toes using the chairs and hammocks - Between the bedroom & kitchen is an open air dining area, which means in order to get a late night snack/drink you have to get fully dressed and be prepared for the bugs - There is a motion sense alarm in the yard that auto sets, so remembering to turn it off before setting the alarm off was tricky sometimes.

Beachfront 3bed/3bath luxury beauty sleeps 6-8
This is a fantastic condo, and the location can't be beat. I stayed here with my family (husband, kids ages 4 & 6, and my in-laws) and we all loved it. The beach was right in front, the view spectacular, and we always had the pool to ourselves. We walked to town from the beach (really cute beach town) and drove 5 minutes to Playa Penca and Playa Prieta too. But we thoroughly enjoyed our beach front Playa Potrero too. I highly recommend it! Wolfgang was so accommodating (we booked the day we checked in) and his employee Erwin was incredibly kind and helpful to check us in.

Luxury Beachfront Home/Sunsets by the pool
We had the best time staying in the house! It was perfect for our group, and love that everyone had their own separate spaces. Highly recommend!

CASA SOMOS UNO OCEANFRONT LUXURY
Our stay at Jarrod’s place was incredible! Best vacation house you could ask for. Perfect location right on the beach but still super private. Having a swimming pool right on the ocean is about as good as it gets, we usually spend most of our vacation time at the beach but this house was so great we wound up spending more time by the pool. Also the house is stocked very well, everything an Airbnb/rental house should have this house has. Jarrod was very accommodating and helped us with transportation and Covid testing at the house. I highly recommend this to anyone visiting the Playa Negra area! We will definitely be coming back!

Beachfront Home Ocotal Beach - Ocean Views
OBSESSED. The views, the space, the communication, the location… y’all. We’re sooooooo happy with our stay!!! We felt like kids in a candy shop exploring this house. It’s just SO beautiful. The decor and amenities inside are super thoughtful. The views are breathtaking!! We loved sitting on the porch sipping coffee, reading, etc. We loved the proximity to Father Rooster’s—a sweet little restaurant close by. It’s super tourist-friendly, but still felt authentic. Check in was smooth, after making contact with the on-site security (which we greatly appreciated!!). Communication with our host throughout the process was flawless! A couple of things to note: 1) The A/C units worked perfectly in the bedrooms; keeping the main living area cool during the heat of the day was a little tougher. But you are in Central America, after all! 2) The main bed was too soft for us. 3) Keep in mind that CR is a developing country, this house is on the edge of the neighborhood, and CR driving is nutty!

Sloth Life Beachfront Home - Sleeps 14 - FRONT ROW
Are stay was awesome. The house and location were perfect, everything was as described online. The location was for us. This beach isnt really a family beach. but it close enough we're you can a day trip Manua Antonio or even Jaco. The sunset where amazing. They do have a pool in the community. Jason was an awesome host. Thank you....#Puravida

Playa Tivives- Aslan’s Country
Our family really enjoyed our relaxing stay here. The views, the pool, and the patio were all perfect places to relax and enjoy our time together. The kitchen was well equipped. The 3 bedrooms all had their own nice en suite bathrooms which was great! I'd highly recommend this for a relaxing stay in an off the beaten path oceanfront spot! As other I read in other reviews, the beach did have lots of driftwood and some trash that had washed up. This didn't detract from our stay at all, but worth noting if that would bother you. Jorge was great with communication before and during our trip. The restaurant he recommended right outside the gated community was a great meal and the family running the restaurant were very welcoming and accommodating.
