Palm Beach Estates 150' to Beach. Best Location!

ErinRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Great amenities. Dirk was extremely responsive and gave great recommendations on things to do and places to eat. The beach is directly across the street. There are several restaurants within walking distance and a market to grab last minute/forgotten items. Don't miss Cafe Mar Azul, the food is fantastic and inexpensive. There's a surf shack next door where you can rent surf boards and book excursions. Very safe area. The house was very roomy, clean, and comfortable. We'd book this location again if we vacation in Costa Rica again in a heartbeat.

OCEAN FRONT VIEW APARTMENT, GATED COMMUNITY.

AlexandraRating, 5 stars9 months ago
Ilya was super friendly and helpful. He met us at the gate for check-in and showed us around the unit and property. Everything was clean and easy to access. There are multiple restaurants within walking distance and a couple min drive into downtown you can find a ton more. The beach is also within walking distance. It’s a calm beach with black sand. Not a lot around there but we had fun with our kids. This place is peaceful and relaxing and has great views of the ocean. Would recommend!

15Lovebnb 2Bdr Apt in a Tennis & Pickleball club

RamaRating, 5 stars11 months ago
The bed and breakfast inn was close to action but pleasant enough. Did hear a Friday night party from the Main Street which went with the vibe of the town. Beach was literally 3-5 minutes walk. Lots of restaurants. The hosts were very kind, had breakfast at the inn. Cooked to order eggs, fresh melon smoothie, toasts and coffee yum. The place was very clean, looked better than the pictures. Balcony was a sweet spot and only regret was we didn’t pack our tennis shoes. They had a lovely tennis clinic and pickleball lessons that we watched. Overall, two thumbs up. Loved our stay. Pura Vida

The Toucan House: 2 Bedrooms with Communal Pool

KaylaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Great little bungalow in a gated community with a pool right outside your front porch. Felt very safe. It is a little bit of a walk to get to the beach/restaurants, there is the best bakery and Italian restaurant right around the corner though! There are no sidewalks to get to downtown Potrero so I would recommend finding an uber or having a car/golf cart. The security guards at the gate are very friendly and helpful. Lots of lizards, iguanas, squirrels, and cats that roam through the neighborhood, quite entertaining!

La Casita by Lina

RhondaRating, 5 starstoday
This is our fourth trip to La Casita by Lina!! we fell in love the very first time and have no reason to be anywhere else. It’s quiet, steps away from an amazing beach, and we enjoy the beautiful sunsets. There are two fabulous restaurants within a one to two minute walk. They have happy hour and great music (which is always done before 10 PM). You can take boat trips, snorkel, and rent jet skis through nearby businesses. Karol does housekeeping several times during the week and upon request did a small load of laundry for us. We do rent a car so it’s a quick trip into Coco Beach for anything and everything we could imagine including a gym. Lina is very accommodating and we can always do luggage drop off if it’s earlier than the 3 PM check-in. The space is absolutely perfect for us to completely unplug from work and our usual day-to-day busyness!!!! we are already looking at next year’s calendar. Thank you again, Lina, for another wonderful stay.

Private indoor pool and cosy beach house

Corey.JRating, 5 stars4 weeks ago
Me and my 3 adult children in there 20’s stayed here and it was everything that the pictures show and better ! Outdoor living at its finest and we can’t wait to come back and stay here again! Air conditioning in each bedroom that gets very cold ! LOVED the pool ! Very clean for being outdoor living and I am very particular , but your in Costa Rica don’t go nit picking every nook and cranny you rented an Airbnb with outside living and it’s VERY CLEAN ! Upon arrival was left a bottle of wine , coffee and a pineapple:) Our host was very responsive and checked in regularly to make sure we didn’t need anything or if we needed any suggestions . You’re far enough away from town that we did not hear anything contrary to what some of the previous reviews said . This is a MUST STAY ! We loved it and were so sad to leave . We were here for 5 days and I do suggest renting a golf cart for your stay , soooo much fun and so much easier to get around it really made the trip ! Great Costa Rica Vibe

Beach front property - Rustic Cabin

CarolynRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Incredible “home away from home”, right on beautiful Playa Hermosa. If you are looking for a rustic, clean, beautiful and safe place to enjoy the sound of the ocean and the incredibly easy beach access, this is it. It is not fancy, so please do not go expecting a North American hotel suite!! However, it was PERFECT for us. We were initially wondering if we would miss having an indoor living room like we do at home, but we completely enjoyed the Costa Rican way of gathering on the porch for pretty much everything except cooking, showering or sleeping! What fun to watch the village resident clan of howler monkeys when they visited (they could be noisy in the morning on days they were in our trees…very entertaining!!), as well as many iguanas of various sizes. The property is gated and locked with access only to current residents and the lovely host family, including their sweet dog, Favé. We felt absolutely safe and comfortable, and were very thankful for this incredible experience!

Beachfront Studio, Private Balcony with Ocean View

FrankRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
These guys did a great job, great location and proactive on the communication. Found the place no problem, had assistance checking in. Parking was on the street which can be sparse, but the location is right on the beach in the middle of everything. Felt safe. I stayed here with my sister, but feel like this is great value especially if you had 4 people. Gracias.

Ideal location, right in the heart of everything in Tamarindo, you call it restaurants, beach, supermarket, coffee shops, gym… The apartment if extremely well kept, surroundings are beautiful. Alexander and Gabriela are very friendly and helpful. Very fast internet for digital nomads. I recommend it to the Airbnb community 100 %

Chris is such a responsive, gracious host. His communication is top-notch—he even sent videos with directions of how to arrive and get into the place. The place was so well appointed and comfortable. He sincerely wanted us to have a good Costa Rican experience. We’d return in a heartbeat!

2BR with pool, steps from the beach

AlexRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Great location. Quiet little community within walking distance to anything you need, including the beach. Condo was stocked with all of your beach necessities- towels, chairs, boogie board. The welcome book had all of the information we needed + more. Easy/clear check in directions and early check in/late out was offered, which is always appreciated! Bottled water in the fridge upon arrival which we were so thankful for since we arrived late at night after everything was closed! We were also greeted with a congratulatory champaign bottle as we were on our honeyhoneymoon. Very thoughtful! We would absolutely return if we find ourselves in the area again.

SEE MONKEYS Private Pool - just steps to beach!

RogerRating, 5 stars1 month ago
The house was as advertised. The pool was spotless, and the landscaping was beautiful. Despite the suggestion to turn off the AC when leaving the house, which left us concerned about being comfortable while sleeping, the AC worked great, and we slept fantastically. Although we did not cook a lot, we never failed to find the utensils and pans etc. that we needed. All in all, it was a well-appointed house with towels, beach chairs everything we needed. And the wildlife showed up right on cue, we saw howler monkies, equanas, geckos, butterflies, and birds (even saw a parrott). Unfortunately we did not see the ten foot iguana that Willy bragged about, but several in the group were fine with that ;). Finally, Willy was a fantastic concierge/helper. Gave us great advice and is a pleasure to talk too. Only downside was the restaurant food in town was very pricy. Really had to follow Willies advice and go to the local mom and pop haunts for better food and better pricing.
