About this house rental

Location , Location, Location!
This stunning, well appointed 4 bedroom 3 1/2 bathroom home is located in the gated community of Hermosa Palms. Check the surf off the master bedroom and deck, or let it lull you to sleep after a day of fun. Savour your coffee and breakfast outside under one of the 3 covered terraces. The second story “ spa terrace” is a wonderful place to read a book, have a conversation all while sitting in our new spa addition. Not heating it through the day makes for a refreshing relaxing experience , all the while being massaged by 85 jets. For the evening turn it up a few degrees t o soothe your body before going to bed. Enjoy the sea breezes while swinging in the hammocks on the roof top terrace. Have a barbecue or let someone else do the cooking with a private chef or dine at one of the dozens of nearby restaurants.
Pack a lunch, grab the beach chairs, umbrella and coolers ( all provided) and go to a secluded beach. We are happy to direct you. Be a Robinson Crusoe family for a week and let your hair down. Have that adventurous vacation that you have always wanted. Its all within nearby proximity. There is so much diversity in every-way to choose from!! The good and the bad is that you can't do it all in one trip, so that means you can't wait to come back!

The beach and community pool are a short, less than a two minute, 300 foot stroll away. Just carry your surf board with you. Playa Hermosa is one of the most consistent and best surfing destinations in Costa Rica, the past site of the past 2009 summer world surfing championships. Body and surf board rentals as well as lessons are available for all ages on site from champion instructors.
You will see turtle nests on the beach where they laid their eggs and often the hatchlings scampering to the sea. Spotting the Scarlet Macaw parrots in the Almendro trees is a daily event, usually at 6am or 4 pm.
Listen for the Howler monkeys at day break.

Your private beach home is just 10 minutes away from the town of Jaco. In Jaco you will find numerous restaurants, shops, banks, grocery stores, car rentals, pharmacies and plenty of night life including casinos.
For a real thrill don't forget the Zip lines just outside of town.
You're only 90 minutes or less from the world famous Manuel Antonio National Park. This park has monkeys, parrots and lots of other wildlife. There are great eateries along the way with spectacular clifftop ocean views.

Just a 15 minute drive north you will find the 5 star Marriott Los Suenos Resort, which offers golf, tennis, shops, fine dining, spa and marina; or continue along another 5 minutes and treat yourself to sunset cocktails at Villa Caleta's. This will be unforgettable.
The airport in San Jose is less than ninety minutes away with a newly opened highway. Rental car pickup, taxi or van can be easily arranged including a driver. Just step out of the airport and let someone else do the driving.

This spectacular tropical beach community of Hermosa Palms is noted for its ideal location and friendly atmosphere. Close to the town of Jaco, yet blessed with 5 miles of uncrowded beach and endless surf. It is the most central location to countless activities, tours, numerous other secluded beaches, two fabulous marinas, sport fishing, restaurants, casinos and night life. Your ideal place to decompress from life's pressures.

Wow what a great vacation. Tim is an excellent host and would stay at his home again. Tim's communication is very responsive and his ideas of what to do when in the area are spot on. Palms at Playa Hermosa Beach Club was so much fun. Yes, it is not exactly on the beach, but it is close enough. The pool and Yoyo's is very fun. The beach is 100ft away. Tim's house is beautiful and well maintained. There was plenty of space for us (family of 4 adults) plus some. The kitchen is well stocked, the laundry is right off the kitchen if you need it. The beds are super comfortable, the outdoor shower was the best part of the house. We met some of the neighbors at the pool and they are very nice as well. Jaco is 10 min and Manuel Antonio is about 1.5 hours and very easy drive. Overall, I would definitely rent Tim's house again.

We had a great time as a family renting this property. The house was clean and well kept and the owner did a great job at communicating with us and making us feel like an extended part of his family. We really enjoyed the close access that this property has to the beach and the community pool where you can buy simple meals and drinks at the swim up bar. The sunsets at the beach were fantastic every night and the property is only 10 minutes from Jaco which is a big town with everything you could want. The owner, Tim gave us lots of suggestions on restaurants and activities and they were all great. We plan to return to take advantage of more of them as our only regret was that we didn’t stay longer than 5 nights!

A lovely property, lots of room, very short walk to the pool and pool bar/restaurant which was excellent and just a few more steps to the ocean. Tim gave us a list of activities not to miss and all the ones we tried were fabulous. He and the property manager made our trip stress free by arranging transportation for our excursions and to/from the airport. Property manager also bought groceries we requested for our arrival. You can’t go wrong with this property.

Graduation trip

Our family of 7 had a wonderful time for our daughter’s high school graduation trip. We loved Tim’s house and the proximity to surfing, which was the main purpose of our trip. One of the main reasons we chose this house was how helpful Tim was. He was a wealth of information for all the questions I had. The neighborhood is very nice. I will say the road leading to the neighborhood was rough and full of potholes, but we managed it in our minivan! We never saw the monkey but the beach here is really beautiful!

Gorgeous home, extremely comfortable and modern, gorgeous details in every design aspect.

A two minute walk to the beach and nice garden views. Secure well kept neighborhood of friendly surfers. Comfortable beds, large bathrooms fully equipped kitchen. Catching world class waves right out back, no need to travel or rack your boards. You can’t see the beach from the house but it’s only 100 feet to the beach trail, which is landscaped to perfection. The black sand beach full of shells and driftwood was amazing. Hermosa Palms is a first class neighborhood development. Every worked was super friendly and happy. They have drinking water from the sink so we could fill all our water bottles daily. They had hundreds of channels on the tv and a good stereo. We hired Dixie a local surf photographer and she took 700 amazing pictures. The vibe of the development is super chill and the house itself is a palace.

Overall great experience and awesome host
Overall great experience and awesome host
Owner was very responsive and provided plenty of local recommendations. Check in process was a breeze as well as checkout. Would totally stay here again. The only negative was the default picture showing the beach/ocean view from third floor terrace. That view was something we where all looking forward to but was blocked by trees that have now grown 10-20 feet above completely obstruction the ocean view. The property still is a great place but I was quite disappointed about the missleading views from the home.
