About this house rental

Playa Grande's best BEACH House location with the sexy free form pool, is nestled within the Las Baulas National Park and only a few steps to Costa Rica's finest Beach, also within a short walk to the Tamarindo Wildlife Refuge, 4 excellent Restaurants, Mini Market, and the Water Taxi to Tamarindo. Playa Grande is the major nesting Beach for the endangered Leatherback Turtle.

This tropical hideaway is a traditional Costa Rican, Spanish Colonial, two bedroom beach house, with Frank Lloyd Wright-styled French doors and windows. The cute, classic, casa is artfully decorated and is very comfortable, clean, quiet, and relaxing. Each air-conditioned bedroom has it's own private full bathroom. The king-size beds are topped with luxurious feather beds and comforters with fresh duvets. All linens are excellent, high quality cotton. The Kitchen and Living Room is spacious and airy with high ceilings detailed with beautiful local hardwoods and plenty of sun-drenched windows.

The large outdoor covered patio/porch is classically tiled and perfect for lounging and dining. It overlooks a beautifully designed private pool that has been described by the locals as 'The Sexiest Pool in Playa Grande,” and the therapeutic Jacuzzi jets guarantee stress free pool time. The property is totally surrounded by the natural tropical dry forest which offers a Private Paradise for guests and the many exotic birds, butterflies, and other flora and fauna that call this cozy casita their home.

My husband, kids (11 & 9) and I had a great time. The house was PERFECT for the four of us. It was exactly like the pictures except the pool, patio, and yard is even better in person. It was one of the prettiest residential pools I've seen and it was always spotless. You could always find a shaded place to relax and enjoy the serene landscaping and wildlife. We saw birds, lizards, giant moths, butterflies, squirrels, and monkeys. We walked to Cafe Mar Azul for dinner and breakfast and drove to Pots and Bowls (3 times!) and Rip Jack's. All excellent. Beach access was fast and simple. The house is 4 houses down from the access path. It doesn't get much more convenient than that. Waves were great for the boys to surf, boogie board and body surf. Bring mosquito repellant. an umbrella (if green season) and a headlamp or strong flashlight for walking back at night from one of the several restaurants nearby. Mike is a gracious host and extremely responsive. We look forward to returning.

Clean house with all the amenities needed. The beds were extremely comfortable and the air conditioning worked great. We loved spending the afternoons cooling off in the pool and the outdoor table for eating and family time. The outdoor fans were also a nice touch! We highly recommend this house.

This home was perfect for the four of us. We are two couples, in our 60’s, and have been friends for years. The house is very well set up for two couples. We each had a large bedroom with an ensuite. Closets and cupboards in the bedrooms allowed us to unpack. Huge beds with quality sheets and duvets were sincerely appreciated. The host provides enough bath towels to allow for changing them. We also were provided large, absorbent beach towels. Each bedroom has a safe so you can lock your valuables. The kitchen is very well stocked with dishes, pots, glassware and utensils. A barbecue is provided but we went out for dinner every day. We barely used the living room as the outdoor living space was why we were there! The pool was THE BEST! I’ve never had my own private pool before and it was fabulous. We were in and out of the pool numerous times per day. We used the lounge chairs or sat at the table to eat, play games, work on the computer. We did not have any difficulty accessing the internet. I also must say it was great to have a washing machine and a dryer. We had packed lightly and it was so easy to launder our clothes. We chose not to rent a vehicle and we didn’t need one. We walked everywhere! The walk to the 5 km long Playa Grande took us 5 minutes. What an absolutely beautiful beach. We explored the area and walked to all the different restaurants. We had fun taking in the Super Bowl at Sugarees. Our host was the perfect host! Mike was attentive and responsive

We had traveled all over Costa Rica tbe first week and was so excited to have this relaxing week at this wonderful house. It is also a great location for exploring too. The pool was fantastic. Loved hearing the howler monkeys in the morning and evening. Easy walk to the mostly deserted feeling beach. Fun to watch the surfers and sunsets. Easy walk to a small grocery snd several restaurants. All very safe and beautiful area. Great outdoor area and bedrooms were very comfortable too. Woukd love to go back.

The bungalow is a 2-minute walk from the beach, and the area is safe; our teens walked by themselves to the beach, shops, and restaurants. The house is typical Costa Rican and has all the conveniences needed. Mike was responsive and helpful throughout the week.

This was our first trip to Costa Rica and the Sexy Pool was the perfect place as a base camp. Great house, pool and neighborhood. Playa Grande is an amazing beach and this comes from someone who lives in So Cal and goes to Hawaii and Mexico. Do the estuary, use Byron at the Greatful Hotel, he is hilarious. Enjoy the pool and the beach. You can skip Tamarindo unless you like tourist traps. Bring dollars because it is hard to get to ATMs once you are in Playa Grande.

We recently completed a 9 day stay as part of an overdue sabbatical, choosing this property specifically for the qualities listed ("peaceful" "quiet" "private"). Unfortunately, we learned from the owner onky after complaining mid way through our stay that a "construction boom" started in December 2022, after our initial deposit. Our "unfortunate luck" said Mike. However, we had plenty of time to find somewhere else and would have, had he shared this or if the listing was accurate. Instead, we were awoken daily before 7a to sound of hammering and cement saws immediately next door, everyday until sundown, and were greeted with construction workers looking down into the house and property. Many times the noise was so loud we were unable to sit and talk outside. Mike provided a 1 night refund after we complained, though we only asked that he update the listing. Construction may wrap up soon next door, but there are multiple other nearby projects also underway that were loud and other lots clearly being readied or for sale. We're long time VRBO customers and have come to trust listings and owners/reps. We have never had to complain or left a bad review. This was a major disappointment - mostly because we could have avoided if accurate, complete, and timely information had been provided.
