Vacation rentals in Rio Frio

I would definitely go back to Russell's place, it's even nicer than what you see in the photos, the beach is not as crowded and some of the most beautiful sunsets I've ever seen, the house comes with everything you need to enjoy. Russell is always attentive to any questions or needs you may have. The accommodation is 1.40 hours from Managua, and the access is very good.

This place was great! So much room for a family. Location is a little far from town, but an easy walk via beach with older kids. However, would be a long walk for young kids — not many restaurants in the area. Host was super responsive. WiFi was solid. Beds were comfortable. Kitchen had everything you’d need. Hot water and Ac was enjoyable for our stay.

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 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!

It was the best place to stay near Puerto Viejo! The pool was amazing. Jenny and her family were very kind. Thank you for making our stay more than perfect.

Great place loved the decor and all the amenities: Pool, jacuzzi, covered bbq and entertaining area, place work outside...Super close to the beach and very quiet........Super gem and great hosts!

Our stay at Amber Lynn's place was absolutely fantastic! The condo was even better than the photos, we had zero complaints and Amber Lynn was a great host. The kitchen was so well stocked- lots of spices, oil, vinegars, etc, and a wide variety of pots and pans and cooking utensils. There was even very sharp knives! I've never stayed at an Airbnb with such a usable kitchen. The beds were clean, well made and both had lots of pillows. The linen closet was also well stocked with tons of towels (and beach towels) available. It was so great to have use of the beach chairs, sun umbrella, and cooler bag- that made our beach trips really easy. We cannot say enough good things about the location! There is a large balcony that has a perfect view of the sunset. The condo is sort of at the end of the beach in a location that is very quiet and peaceful. The pool was absolutely perfect. There was rarely anyone else in it while we were there and the residents that we did see were very friendly.

Beautiful garden!! Great porch!!
