Beachfront Residence in the Center of Jaco JBV3
David’s place was great! You cannot beat the location and view. We were so thankful we chose this place, it was close to everything and he is a great host. We’d love to come back!

Condo Jaco Bay Resort A2
Excelente y bellísimo lugar, muy organizado, seguro y limpio facil acceso, cerca de la playa, restaurantes y supermercados. Don Ricardo muy amable. Recomendado

Premier Oceanfront Retreat, Direct Beach Access
This was hands down one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever stayed! It felt as though we were the only ones there! Everything in the condo was wonderful. When we do return to Costa Rica, we will stay here again! It truly made us feel like royalty! Fantasy Island at his finest.! Loved it! Great Host!

Beachfront Scenic Luxury
Wow!!! A perfect stay ! Beyond Expectations! I had an absolutely amazing time at this Airbnb! From the moment I arrived, Yuri was there to help for a smooth check in process. Everything was spotless, beautifully decorated, and exactly as pictured (if not better). That view in photos is a must see in person because WOW!! The host Yuri went above and beyond to make sure I felt welcome—super responsive, friendly, and thoughtful with all the little touches that made a big difference. The location was ideal—quiet, safe, and close to everything I needed. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and I slept like a dream. Every detail, from the well-stocked kitchen to the cozy living area, and laundry room set up showed real care and quality. I honestly didn’t want to leave and would return in a heartbeat. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing, comfortable, and memorable stay. Thank you Yuri & Pura Vida !!

New Oceanview 1BR Penthouse in Beachfront Complex
This property is AMAZING! Honestly, the balcony & view alone is worth booking. Coming from a big city, trading in loud city noises to hear the sound of the waves rolling 24/7 alone makes this place completely worthy. CLEAN. Great location. So much to do in nearby areas. This Airbnb is perfect and goes down as a rebooking if I’m ever in Jacó again. I had such an amazing time staying here. Also, the host/co-host were amazing with assisting with private transportation. I was able to get to and from the Airbnb to the airport with ease. Tip: if you plan to have a massage therapist come over, see if the host can get you a code or something for security. Security onsite take their job very seriously which is actually a good thing, but it can be a hassle to have a service being done in the Airbnb. Other than that just book the d*mn place

Entire Modern Hotel Steps to Beach Fast WiFi Pool
The host was extremely responsive. We loved the used of Hotel Jaco’s pool, restaurant, room service, & beach access.

Beach front house private pool Esterillos Jacó
We had the loveliest time at this beachfront house. The pool is gorgeous - not too warm or cold. It was so refreshing to relax in the pool and stare at the waves. The house is in the best part of Esterillos, right in front of the “mermaid” and the tide pools. The house is well designed and makes use of all the spaces. It was clean and well equipped. You can also walk to the nearby store and there are a few good restaurants just a block or two away walking along the beach. It was an amazing place to share with family, we will be back!

OceanFront Community 3BR Beach House Steps to Sand
I feel so lucky I got to stay here. This home is located in a private, beach front community with other travelers and locals. The pool was beautiful with a swim up bar and macaws flying over our heads and hanging out in the nearby trees. The home was beautiful and very clean, it was easy to feel at home and get a good night’s rest. The home is beautifully designed yet very cozy. The host was awesome and provided us a list of local food, activities, and more! They didn’t miss a beat. I highly recommend choosing this home for your stay in Costa Rica. Also, Jaco and the surrounding areas are so extremely beautiful. This was the most incredible trips of my life, everyone I met was so cool and friendly, the food was amazing, and the wildlife was breathtaking. If you have the opportunity, please don’t pass it up!

Casa Buona Vacanza Los Sueños serenity and leisure
Hemos ido varias veces a Los Sueños porque nos gusta mucho el lugar. Bellas vistas, variados restaurantes, excelente ambiente, excelentes servicios, playa, beach club, etc. El apartamento de Leny está impecable y lo recomiendo ampliamente. Lo que lo hace además súper especial es la atención de Leny, sin duda de las mejores anfitrionas.

CASA BARU New house - 2 min from the beach
We had an excellent stay at Casa Baru! The home was very clean and smelled great upon arrival. We had two couples stay and we had plenty of room to ourselves. The place definitely looks bigger in person! The pool was great and we spent lots of time swimming and relaxing in the sun. It’s a short 15 minute drive to downtown Jaco where we went for dinners and activities. Juan was an excellent host and checked in frequently to see if we needed anything. He even invited us down to his restaurant to watch a surfing competition! We had an excellent stay and would highly recommend Juan’s place to anyone!

Casa Colina - Amazing House Surrounded by Nature
Alles war perfekt! Die Lage und das Haus haben alle unsere Erwartungen erfüllt. Danny & das Team waren immer freundlich und zugänglich. Als wir festgestellt haben, dass Wespen ein Nest am Haus bauten, war das Team innerhalb von einer Stunde da und das Problem wurde sofort gelöst. Der Pool war sauber und in bester Kondition. Wir haben besten Urlaub gehabt und kommen gern wieder!

Apartamento Estrella de Mar, Playa Mantas.
El Apartamento de Eric y Teresita es hermoso y con una ubicación perfecta dentro de un condominio vertical. Gracias a su ubicación en el piso 10 hay ventilación natural, casi ni es necesario usar el aire acondicionado. El apartamento tiene todo lo necesario para sentirme como en casa. Además el Beach club es muy bello y completo, tiene 3 piscinas, una para niños, y dos jacuzzis con vista al mar. También acceso a la playa en una zona segura, tranquila y bella. Vimos tucabes, Guacayamas, mono cari blancos entre otros bellos animales. Definitivamente un lugar para ir en pareja, o con hijos como nosotros. Un bello lugar

Modern condo with wonderful ocean view
Jose’s condo was an amazing find. We stayed there with some family, and it was perfect for us to have our own bedrooms but also have a nice shared space to all spend time together. My parents stayed at a similar condo close by but ended up spending most of their time with us at Jose’s condo as it was a nicer place to hang out together. Jose was always responsive, came immediately to help us with any questions or to show us how to use appliances, and was so accommodating. Perfect place to walk to restaurants, shops, the beach, or just to relax.

Oceanfront Resort The Palms Jaco Playa Jacó 103 CR
Great apartment at a secure location. Pool just outside and access to the beach. Access to the casino next door with restaurant options and an even bigger pool. Can walk the street or beach to the downtown in 20 minutes or get a cab/Uber if the weather is too hot.

Facing Mantas Beach-16th Floor- Magic Forest View
El apartamento excelente, limpio y comodo. Me encanto la ubicacion y que cerca de la piscina tenga acceso al mar y que no haya que sacar el carro para poder ir a la piscina y al Mar me parecio excelente. Orlando super eficiente y gentil. Sin duda volveremos y lo recomiendo!

7 Bedroom Penthouse Ocean & Mountain Views JB31002
This is a perfect place for our group of seven. Awesome and beautiful place. Brittany was great, very responsive and very helpful.

Escápate al Paraíso Condo Lujo Frente a Playa Jaco
I was driving south and needed a place to stay last minute and Josep responded within 1 minute with my question which was great. We were traveling with two cars and there was no issue with parking. I think the listing says 1 car space available but there was room for two which was what we needed. Thank you.

Luxurious resort-style oasis w/ pool + jungle view
Our stay at Damien’s place was perfect for our family. The place was clean, in a great location (walkable to many restaurants, the beach, stores, etc) and access to the pool was perfect for us and our 3 year old. Damien was an incredible host and went above and beyond to make our stay easy. He helped us with local tours, recommendations, and set us up with items for our daughter specially. The kind of host you wish for every time! Would absolutely stay again and would highly recommend to anyone!

New Front Row Oceanfront at Pacific Point w/Gym
We had a great time at the apartment, which was exactly as described. The building is brand new and the unit has good wi-fi, cold (and necessary) A/C and fans, new appliances, comfortable beds, and decent soundproofing. The unit directly faces the ocean so most of the Jaco nightlife noise is avoided other than from the beach below. The building appears to be almost exclusively vacation rentals, so has a feel more like a hotel than an Airbnb - not a bad thing, just an observation. It's a quick short block walk to the main Jaco street with restaurants and shopping. The beach view is incredible from the unit and also the rooftop, though you almost don't need to go up there since you're on the 11th floor anyway (elevators were busy but reliable). Overall we were very happy with our stay and appreciated the hosts' responsiveness especially when the building unexpectedly lost water for several hours (not a common occurrence). Pool was also awesome and never to busy even on a holiday.
