Three generations of our family went to the beach house and we all thoroughly enjoyed it. It's super spacious with much more room than our party of 7 needed. The main house could use a bit more lighting, especially in the kitchen, as cooking after dark isn't convenient. The pots and pans were plentiful but the dishes need upgrading. The last recommendation is to upgrade the cable to digital as the analog system is missing multiple channels and the picture doesn't come through well on many. Regardless of those minor issues, it was a great stay and we could easily see ourselves renting it again.

This is me and my friends second time staying here. We really enjoyed the property. Fits 8 adults comfortably with a full kitchen for a chef to cook. Pool was regularly clean and beach access was 20ft away. Steve was a great host with great knowledge of the area and recommendations.

We enjoyed the fact that it was big enough for our entire family. Pool was great. All the restaurants within walking distance were great. Mattresses need an upgrade.

Property and location was just as advertised. It's best attribute were the people - Anna took care of all of our needs promptly and with a constant smile. Gustavo (the private chef recommended) created a meal experience that drew an ovation at a reasonable price and Primo - the driver - was always on time, very knowledgeable and everyone felt safe with him in command. Only downside of the trip was an oven that did not work (stove top worked as did the BBQ so adopting a 'pura vida' attitude meant not having a working oven was not a major obstacle). Our biggest complaint would have to be the condition of the pool - turned from a brilliant blue to a chemical-filled green mess several days after our arrival. Despite daily service visits, they were unable to restore the blue until the day we left. Bottom line - after two weeks in paradise, several family members are already talking about a return visit.

The property was centrally located to town and anything you wanted to do. The beach was pretty but too rough to play in. The pool area was where we spent most of our time. Plenty of chairs to relax and hang out. Plenty of room/beds for large parties

Good , interesting,walking distance to many restaurants easy beach access, friendly and accommodating folks

We were a group of 12 first visit to Jaco . Steve and Vickie were excellent hosts. They were nearby for any questions or issues, and they quickly resolved them. The property is gorgeous right on beach for lovely sunsets. pool area was great to hang out. Safe and secure property,near to everything. Try the chef Dennis was reasonable price and the food was delicious . Thank YOu for a wonderful first visit to Costa Rica we will be back. Sara K

Meticulously maintained property with the most Amazing beach ever. Professional in every way the woman who maintains the property was amazing. Beautiful pool , bar and outdoor hangout area. Walking distance to everything will be back for sure!

Stayed for 6 night with friends in a fishing trip. Had an issue or two however Steve was a great host and addressed promptly. He also arranged a cook to come in and had a nice meal prepared for us.

The property is a private piece of paradise.

Steve was a great host, very helpful, great advice/ help for local tours. There were pros and cons though. The pool and patio area/ ocean access and flora was the best part of the property. It is very secure and beautiful. We were disappointed in the maintenance of the house/ villas. It needs some upkeep. The kitchen lighting is dark for cooking and the kitchen amenities were not as expected. The beds in the villas were very hard with flat pillows. The beds in the main house were good. The farmers market is a worthwhile visit, is just a 20 minute walk on Thursday and Fridays only. The property is close to restaurants and the main grocery store.

The pool was an absolute hit EVERY day, rain or shine! We all lived in and around the pool. The house away from the pool excellent for small kids for safety but close enough to feel always included. Recommend using Steve's chef. His name is Dennis and his business is Bella Vista Cocina. We hired them for a dinner for 6 adults & 2 kids and it was excellent.

Very convenient location, would reccomend.

Great property. Lots of room and a great pool. Very central location.

We enjoyed the house and local access to everything downtown. There were 10 of us and we were comfortable the whole time. Annie and her sister took great care of us with any request we had. Everything was as advertised in the house. The beach is not as nice or clean as the picture looks, which is obviously not the owner's fault but worthy of noting if the beach is a deal-breaker for you.

Truly an amazing property. We felt like we were in a tropical paradise, because we were! The accommodations were perfect, spacious, clean - on site cleaning lady came in every am and made everything like it was upon arrival - the location is perfect for access to town and the beach literally at the back door (and the lifeguard tower is right by the gate too) and close to so many excursions. I would definitely say we will be back. This worked well for our group of 8, with a ton of extra space had we been double the number. We ranged in age from 24 to 50 and everyone was thrilled. We were visited by many large iguana, a racoon, macaws, hermit crabs in the thousands, some other crabs that came into the rooms to visit so watch when leaving your doors open! Bats and squirrels, it's was great. Steve was on hand in minutes to help with any of our needs, a fantastic host. One of our ladies left her ring on the sink when we left and she thought for sure it was a gonnet, but Steve found it and is mailing it for her! STAY HERE AND SEE WHY PEOPLE MOVE TO THIS BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY - And download Uber - it's super cheap and just as easy to use as anywhere else. Only word of advice for those traveling with children, the ally to access the house at night is used by a plethora of activities you would want to keep your minors from. The property is beyond secure and we never felt anything but safe, amd someone was always on site so no worries when going out for the day.

It was a group of seven of us that came out to Steve’s property we enjoyed our stay the location was great we had a private cook come to the house. Nothing can go wrong with this house the beach is the backyard . We will most definitely stay here again when we come back

The property is well situated and easily walkable to Jaco main drag. However it is located in Sketchy area of Jaco by the Cocal casino. The property was great outside. The doors needed some maintenance as they sometimes worked and other times didn’t. The bathrooms had rusted fixtures, cobwebs, and just generally didn’t seem clean by American standards. The beds only came with a sheet, no blanket presumably to keep you from making the air condition too cold in the bedrooms. The air conditioning in the main living room did not cool. People in tents and on the ground camped right outside the property on the beach that you had to walk around or through their campsite in order to access the beach. Overall an interesting experience but not when I would rush back to.

Absolutely beautiful home, better than described. Exceeded every expectation. Stay here!!! Steve and The Green Iguana were everything you could ask for and then some. Steve is a gracious host, easily one of the best trips we’ve had. Thanks Steve!

We really enjoyed our stay. Great location. Pool was nice and large. Only regret, Steve isn't interested in selling. LOL We would love to live there.

Clean house right on the beach and in the center of town. Perfect vacation

Always a great time at the iguana. I'm sure we'll be back for yrs to come. Pool and landscape make this tropical home a must.

Steve’s home is beach front with private access to Playa Jaco. The property feels very private with high walls and lots of trees/plants/vegetation that gives you a tropical paradise feel. The pool was amazing and the property functions very well for multiple guests. Everything you need is within walking distance, several Resturants, shops, grocery store, etc. Steve will assist you in booking any activities you may want, so book the Green Iguana house and you’ll enjoy your stay in Jaco.

Steve was always aware of our needs, the cleaning lady really nice too. The house is amazing in every aspect (location, amenities, comfort). You would not regret if booking with Steve.

Great location!! Fabulous beach right out the back gate. One block to restaurants, shopping, night life, etc. Steve was great! He helped us with all our questions, requests, needs, transportation, etc. etc. We really enjoyed the gardens and our time at the Green Iguana! It would be hard to find a better place to vacation in Jaco! Thanks Steve, we enjoyed meeting you and your staff!! The New Hampshire 8

Steve was the best host I’ve ever had. He was very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. He helped us book our zip lining and whitewater rafting trip. The house was amazing and right on the beach. I wouldn’t recommend to stay anywhere else but here when traveling to Jaco.

We had a great time here, right on the beach and right in town is perfect . The owner Steve was very nice and always available when we needed something. Would rent this house again when we return to Jaco

an exceptionally spectacular setting, on the beach.

This was simply one of the best properties for groups I have been to. Perfect location right on the beach and walking distance to everything.

if you going to Jaco this is the only place to stay. it has the best location on the beach. Steve does a nice job and is quite helpful if needed. We don't plan on returning to this area but if we did we would definitely stay here again.

Location, location, location. Steve is great. Very responsive. House is near everything you might need. Wish the bath towels were a little nicer - lots of showers between beach, pool, activities and heat. But overall a very functional and convenient place to stay.
