If you are looking for quiet, gorgeous views, amazing pool, place to escape, Casa Fuego is perfect! Playa Negra is remote and quiet leaving time to really relax. Casa Fuego is right on the best part of the beach. We enjoyed sunsets every night from the pool deck as well as the second floor deck which has an amazing expansive view of the ocean. We spent 90% of our time hanging out in the living space around the pool, which was by far the best pool out of all of the houses I have rented from VRBO thus far. My husband and son both surfed right outside of our house. We were able to sit on our deck and watch them surf. We also enjoyed many meals at Playa Negra Hotel which is walking distant on the beach. Thank you Jarrod and Meaghan for being so responsive to all our calls and emails. It was a pleasure to deal with you both!

Casa Fuego is perfectly situated on the beach Playa Negra. Where there is surfing, snorkeling and beach combing galore. The pool is the perfect size. Walk down the beach for a meal at the Hotel Playa Negra or visit one of the many other Tico restaurants close by. If you want to explore, Meaghan and Jarrod can help you find the perfect excursions.

The home owners were such a pleasure to work with and really provided the easiest and most enjoyable experience booking not only the house but also activities throughout our trip! They made planning our vacation fun and informative. They were able to set us up with private chefs for the house, massages to come to the house, and pretty much any outdoor activity you could think of. We will definitely be booking with them again in the future!!

We loved our stay at Casa Fuego. The house is much nicer than it looks in the pictures. Jarrod and Meaghan were super helpful and nice. I honestly think it was one of the best homes we have ever stayed in. It's right in front of the best surf break and not far from Playa Avellanas and the Lola restaurant if you need easier surf or a different beach. Make sure to eat at the local french restaurant and ask for Dean Jamon. He is super nice and can take you fishing. We highly recommend this house to anyone interested. Pura Vida!

We were looking for a longer term getaway from our nasty Canadian winter when we arrived at Casa Fuego for the month of January. We met our managers, Jarrod and Meaghan at the gates to the private area where the house is located and had the grand introductory tour to Casa Fuego. Our mouths dropped as we came up to the house and looked out across the infinity pool to the beach right outside our front yard. It is spectacular! We were travelling with our daughter and husband and our four grandchildren, ages 2-8, and when the kids saw their new playground for a month, they could not believe it. So we had the best time of our lives, playing in the waves on a spectacular beach. We loved the variety on the beach, with stretches of great sand and then areas of rock with tidal pools, snorkelling (saw leatherback turtles) and just walking for hours and beach combing. There are lots of places to go close by with the little town of Los Pargos at our doorstep, yet far enough away that we always felt we were in our own little place of paradise. A real big plus for us was the availability and attention we received from Jarrod and Meaghan whenever we needed something at the house or just wanted information about the local area. Their attention to us was prompt and courteous and we felt like part of the Playa Negra family in no time. The house itself suited our family perfectly. We slept in our own apartment over the detached garage with the kids having the house and everyone coming together for communal meals and lounging on the outside deck with superb views over the beach and spectacular sunsets. We are already booked for next winter. Can't wait. I highly recommend a trip to Costa Rica and you will fall in love with Casa Fuego and Jarrod and Meaghan. Mucho Gusto!

Casa Fuego in Playa Negra was the perfect getaway for our family (my husband and I, our two kids, and my parents). The house slept us all comfortably and we enjoyed beautiful views of Playas Sandy and Negra from the bottom and top floor balconies. The pool and pool area was perfect for hanging out, having a BBQ, swimming and enjoying the sun. We had our own private path to the beach where the whole family was able to surf any time of the day! Jarrod and Meaghan were super accommodating and available for anything we needed. What a relaxing, adventurous few days! Thank you!

Casa Fuego is the place! I have traveled all over central america and this was the easiest most stress free trip i have taken. Steps off the beach with one of the best point breaks in CR just down the beach!! what more can you ask for?! Jarrod, Meaghan and Mariah took great care of us and answered any and all questions that we had. They dialed us in! from the rental car to the zip line tours etc. I highly recommend PNVR and Casa Fuego! we will be back very soon!

Casa Fuego exceeded all expectations! The house is located on one of the most beautiful and peaceful stretches of beach in all of Costa Rica. You can enjoy spectacular sunsets, swim in the house pool, take beach walks and surf. It's all at your fingertips! On top of that, Meaghan and Jarrod are fabulous hosts-super accommodating, laid back locals who know how to make you feel at home! I highly recommend staying at Casa Fuego! You will not be disappointed!

We had a fabulous time during our stay at Casa Fuego. The house is beautiful and a great location for families with its infinity pool and located right on the beach. Playa Negra is a very friendly town with several great restaurants to choose from. Jarrod and Meaghan were great property managers who were always available to answer any questions that arose. Had such a great time! Can't wait to come back!

If you're looking for a relaxing, slower pace of life in a beautiful setting right on the beach managed by two of the most helpful and kind people ever, go to Casa Fuego! This was our first trip to Costa Rica and I'm so grateful we selected a property managed by Jarrod and Meaghan. They were always super responsive, eager to help, and full of information related to life in Costa Rica and the many available activities, restaurants, etc. (and never tired of answering my plethora of questions)! They ensured we made it in fine, checked in on us regularly and were 5 minutes away if we needed anything, but we never felt "crowded". Payment and reservation process was very easy. Casa Fuego is ideal if you like outdoor living. We spent our time going between the amazing black sand beach just steps down the path and the patio/pool area. We had access to beach chairs, sand toys for the kids, boogie boards and there are a lot of surf shops around for board rental/lessons. The beach has soft and packed super fine sand, clean water, the best waves (sometimes big but no crazy currents like in Hawaii) and the shells were amazing. It was never crowded. The patio is well equipped with many comfy lounge chairs, dining table and chairs, a charcoal grill, awesome views and shade. We loved the infinity pool which was always the perfect temp and cleaned/cared for by the nicest guys. Pool is 4 ft and deeper so bring floats for non-swimmers. The house had tons of room, was very clean, and the kitchen well equipped. I loved that the TV was DVDs only and the breezy area lent well to hanging laundry to dry (elements of the slower pace we loved.) If you have young walkers, there are no stair or deck railings and the pool deck has multiple levels (but there is a baby gate at the top of the indoor stairs.) We have 5 and 8 yr olds and they were totally fine. We appreciated the fans a lot and we LOVED the upper deck views. A car with good clearance helps as the roads in the area are mostly dirt with plenty of bumps but we saw plenty small yaris types too. We loved exploring the area. If you enjoy horses, do yourself a favor and go to Costa Rican Equestrian Vacations for lessons with Molly or a tour by horseback. Wildlife abounds: iguanas, howler monkeys, fin whales, sting rays, song birds, bats, praying mantis, giant grasshoppers, scorpions, wandering dogs and horses, fish, humpback whales, pelicans, geckos, crabs! An unforgettable trip at an incredible spot! Thanks guys!!

This was the third consecutive Christmas we have spent in Playa Negra at Casa Fuego and when we arrive it is like coming home. The house is very comfortable with superb outdoor living around the pool and spectacular views. The location couldn't be better with a sandy beach right out front. We travel as a family with 3 adult children and this year they all brought their significant others along, and we had plenty of space for everyone to have a comfortable stay. Jarrod and Meaghan stayed right on top of all of our needs and requests and helped make it the perfect vacation. They are great people. We can't wait for our next visit.

This house is absolutely perfect! Do not be fooled by the boxy exterior when you pull up in your car - when you round the corner to the front door, you will see what is in store. The inside is exquisitely appointed with everything anyone could want to be comfortable and living the pura vida. The view is spectacular and we had the supreme good fortune of viewing one of the most incredible sunsets ever from the upstairs lanai. Do not hesitate to let this be your house while visiting Playa Negra. Meaghan and Jarrod are fantastic and will help you happily with anything you may need or want - they will also leave you alone and let you be happily on your own, should you desire. Do rent a horse from Ray, who arrives by horse to clean the pool, and let him show you the beaches to the north. Did not want to leave and definitely will come back. Thank you!!!!!

We had the Villa for 2 amazing weeks, its right on the beach with the best view of the peak. Just wait for the right time of day and when you see the peak empty and waves pounding its time to go, you will be surfing in less then a minute. The house is fully equipped with all that you need. If there is any problem, the care taker Jarrod is always available and will tend to your every need, he really is a great, friendly and super nice guy.

We have been to Costa 6 times, all enjoyable, but this might be the best. Not only is the house perfect and the best location in Negra, but working with Jarrod and everyone he put us in touch with was a pleasure. They take care of everything from Transportation to fishing etc...If you like hassel free vacations in the perfect spot this is the place and these are the people you want to deal with. Jarrod, Doug etc. thanks for a great week. see you for 2 weeks or longer next year.

My wife and I and our two kids spent the month of February 2012 at Casa Fuego and we had an outstanding experience. The house is built in the perfect location with a great view of Playa Negra beach which starts about 100’ from the pool. The beachbreak in front of the house was excellent for boogieboarding and swimming. We frequently ate lunch and dinner by walking 100 yards down the beach to a restaurant. We shopped for food in Tamarindo, 30 minutes away, and found many great restaurants within a 1 mile radius of the house. I’d recommend renting a car during your stay. Jarrod and his wife Meaghan took care of us really well, from our pickup at San Jose Airport to local tours and advice. They are great people and we plan on returning again. Greg and Andrea Huglin

This house is fantastic, the location is amazing, Jarrod and Meaghan are awesome. Wish we were there right now!! Sue and Sinclair.
