Waterfront vacation rentals in Guanacaste Province

We absolutely love this place. This is our second year in playa Potrero. We have looked at multiple places in the area. This is by far the best location. On the beach, it has an amazing view. It is also close enough to all of the restaurants and bars. No need for a car or golf cart unless you want to travel out of town. We have visited multiple beaches north and south of there. This is a place that we would chose hands down. We like a chill environment with good bars and restaurants in walking distance. This is it!

The location of Nick’s place was perfect for us. In a quieter area but in walking distance of restaurants. We loved the pool and direct access to the beach!

Absolutely loved my time at Green Life! It was literally everything we were expecting. Aunt was a 15 minute walk to the beach. There was a lovely coffee shop just down the street. A small supermarket did not even need a car during my time there. The host was so wonderful to work with great communication. I would definitely stay here again.

Great location, host were super friendly, beds were comfy.. no parking but that’s it great place

We had an amazing stay at this beautiful Airbnb! The location was perfect—just a short walk to the beach, which made it so easy to enjoy the ocean whenever we wanted. The place was spotless and exactly like the pictures—bright, spacious, and welcoming. Communication with the host was excellent; they were so thoughtful and went above and beyond to help us celebrate our honeymoon, making the experience even more special. We truly appreciated all the little touches they added to make our stay memorable. We would definitely love to come back! Highly recommend!

We greatly enjoyed our stay here at Paula’s place in Tamarindo. The place is soooo clean and beautiful. It is on a a very large hill so walking to the beach or anywhere in town will require a workout. If mobility is not an issue than I highly suggest staying here!

Great accommodation and perfect hosts! Communication from Fer was impeccable and super welcoming. Clear instructions on how to find the place and where to park (kindly helped by Fer’s dad on-site!), recommendations for what to do and where to eat etc. Couldn’t have been better. The apartment was great. Spotlessly clean and comfortable. Thank you Fer!

Could not have asked for a better place to stay in Nosara. Close to everything, including a short stroll to the beach, restaurants, cafés, hotels and bars. The home felt very safe and secure. The information about the area that the host provided was extremely helpful in putting together an itinerary. The outdoor patio was a highlight as a shady spot to enjoy time outdoors. I would stay here again.

Had a wonderful experience Staying at The Beach house. pretty much you have your own private beach!Sabine and Nico are great hosts. A true tropical Costa Rica experience.

Our stay at Elisabeth and Michael's home was fantastic! We felt as though we had stepped back in time to the early 1900's. They have done an amazing job restoring the place while retaining the original character. Their home is truly a work of art. While there are a few modern conveniences one might find missing, we had everything we needed, were very comfortable and felt completely at home. Michael's breakfast was wonderful and he was always ready to help in every way possible. Our conversations with our hosts were captivating and one of the hi lights of our time in Costa Rica! It is quite apparent that Elisabeth and Michael love Puntarenas and Costa Rica. That affection is quite contagious and we found ourselves more in love with their country having visited with them in their home for a few days and would definitely stay with them again.

The Blue House is truly a magical place with its beautiful gardens and the river in the backyard is a very special feature. We saw lots of butterflies, poisonous frogs, a whole family of monkeys and a toucan, right there in the yard. It is well situated, in a very calm area but at the same time just a couple minutes from numerous activities and restaurants. The house itself is a bit small and the kitchen is minimalistic but everything is super clean and in perfect order. Anyway we passed the majority of our time outside. Anisa is an exceptionally nice person and a super well organized host. Everything is labeled and information is shared in advanced with efficiency. Anisa was also a great help for organizing activities and she made good restaurant recommandations. She answers very quickly and information is crystal clear. thanks you again Anisa! We enjoyed our stay a lot and I recommend a 100%!

We had the best time staying in the house! It was perfect for our group, and love that everyone had their own separate spaces. Highly recommend!

OBSESSED. The views, the space, the communication, the location… y’all. We’re sooooooo happy with our stay!!! We felt like kids in a candy shop exploring this house. It’s just SO beautiful. The decor and amenities inside are super thoughtful. The views are breathtaking!! We loved sitting on the porch sipping coffee, reading, etc. We loved the proximity to Father Rooster’s—a sweet little restaurant close by. It’s super tourist-friendly, but still felt authentic. Check in was smooth, after making contact with the on-site security (which we greatly appreciated!!). Communication with our host throughout the process was flawless! A couple of things to note: 1) The A/C units worked perfectly in the bedrooms; keeping the main living area cool during the heat of the day was a little tougher. But you are in Central America, after all! 2) The main bed was too soft for us. 3) Keep in mind that CR is a developing country, this house is on the edge of the neighborhood, and CR driving is nutty!

This place was adorable and seeing the pets was a plus! Definitely recommend a 4x4 car since the roads leading up are rough. Todd was really nice and was always just a text away. This area is so peaceful and we always felt safe!

We had slight difficulty finding this place as we arrived after dark. What a treat to wake up the next day to the sounds of birds and howler monkeys and a spectacular view of Lake Arenal! The previous evening we had the best meal of our entire vacation at Restaurante Tinajas just down the road. In the morning, we rented the Paddle board. It was so peaceful out on the lake with gorgeous views. The unit is exactly as described. There are not many extras such as salt/pepper for cooking or shampoo for showering.

Situated down a small street and protected by a high fence sits this beautiful property. With mango trees and the sound of the Pacific Ocean as you fall asleep this is where you go to completely get away from it all. While it sleeps 10 (!) we were a family of 5 and enjoyed the serenity of this rustic location. Currently it has no air conditioning, which was actually just fine, but it will be coming in July. Now it's something like upscale camping and you will find nature making its way inside your rooms, so don't be surprised when you see ants on the walls or a crawly thing hiding in your pile of laundry. This is one of the oldest places in the entire town and you just have to embrace it. Because on the plus side Dona Flor makes amazing food and to get to the ocean you just have to open up the back gate and then come back to one of the two outdoor showers and relax in a hammock. It doesn't get more amazing than that.

Not much to add beyond the countless rave reviews here. The restorative and serene view and location is obviously the best quality, but the condo itself is comfortable and offers all the comforts of home as well. We loved the empty beach, the sound of the surf, and the cackle of the tropical birds. If you want crowds and traffic jams, head to Tamarindo. If you yearn for quiet and a vintage Costan Rican experience, I recommend without hesitation.

This is a beautiful condo that was well-appointed and spotless. Instructions were very clear and the guide in the condo suggested GREAT restaurants in the area. The clubhouse pool is amazing with a nice golf course view. Access to the beach club pools and beach are definitely one of the highlights. Amazing! Highly recommend for a relaxing and fun experience at Playa Conchal.

Wonderful view of the water from the moment you walk in the front door! We didn’t get tired of looking at the water or listening to the waves on the large deck. We traveled with another couple and there was plenty of space for everyone. Although we didn’t cook in, it appeared there were ample plates, silverware, cooking utensils, pans, etc. There was a coffee maker, microwave and a blender, but no toaster. The beds in all rooms were firm. The white sand beach in Flamingo is beautiful and my favorite in Costa Rica. The town of Flamingo has several restaurants/bars and the Flamingo marina is also very close. You can walk to the beach, restaurants/bars and marina, but the condo is up a steep hill. We elected to rent a golf cart and were also able to see Potrero and Brasilito. I loved the location of the condo and we had a great time.

Stunning sunsets and spacious living is what we’ll remember from our fabulous stay! Syd was a friendly and responsive host always ready if we had a question. The beachfront location exceeded our expectations; it was quiet and incredibly scenic yet just a fun golf cart ride to Tamarindo. Also delicious restaurants within walking distance if you don’t want to rent golf carts. Our group of 6 adults LOVED our stay!!!

Review for Ray We stayed at Ray’s place for 5 weeks. From the get go Ray has been an awesome host. We had problems with our airline and had to change our dates maybe 5 months ahead of time. Ray responded almost immediately to my request for changes and made my whole dealing with the airline that much easier. During our stay, every single time we asked for something, Ray was there to answer or fix things. Superhost for sure. As far as this place is concerned it is fantastic, the view is outstanding, watching all the boats come back to the marina after sunset every day was an highlight for us. The Condo is equipped with pretty much everything you need for a long stay. The beds are very comfortable. The linens are high quality and the beach towels were awesome. As for every place you rent, there are a few little things that work well but could use an update. But certainly nothing to worry about. This is probably our nicest rental yet. We tried to book again for next year but sadly

Amazing stay. The Airbnb had everything you need for a great vacation.

Sean‘s place was perfect. We found it exactly as described, it was clean, and had all the amenities of home. The location couldn’t be better, the private beach is priceless, we enjoyed it every day. We also really liked relaxing on the beautiful patio. We definitely want to come back. Sean’s place is five stars for sure!

Great stay at Andres’s place in Reserva Conchal! The condo has beautiful views, and was well stocked and clean. The pool for the condo complex was perfect for our toddler, and we loved having access to the Beach Club. We would definitely stay here again!
