Waterfront vacation rentals in Bahía Herradura

David’s place was great! You cannot beat the location and view. We were so thankful we chose this place, it was close to everything and he is a great host. We’d love to come back!

Excellent and beautiful place, very organized, safe and clean easy access, close to the beach, restaurants and supermarkets. Don Ricardo is very friendly. Recommended

This was hands down one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever stayed! It felt as though we were the only ones there! Everything in the condo was wonderful. When we do return to Costa Rica, we will stay here again! It truly made us feel like royalty! Fantasy Island at his finest.! Loved it! Great Host!

This property is AMAZING! Honestly, the balcony & view alone is worth booking. Coming from a big city, trading in loud city noises to hear the sound of the waves rolling 24/7 alone makes this place completely worthy. CLEAN. Great location. So much to do in nearby areas. This Airbnb is perfect and goes down as a rebooking if I’m ever in Jacó again. I had such an amazing time staying here. Also, the host/co-host were amazing with assisting with private transportation. I was able to get to and from the Airbnb to the airport with ease. Tip: if you plan to have a massage therapist come over, see if the host can get you a code or something for security. Security onsite take their job very seriously which is actually a good thing, but it can be a hassle to have a service being done in the Airbnb. Other than that just book the d*mn place

Thomas place was a pleasure to stay at! We were close to everything, we had something different to do everyday! When we had questions Thomas was always responsive as well. Place looks just like photos, no complaints!

We loved the place, we will definitely be back, the view is perfect, the apartment is beautiful, lots to do on the beach and good restaurants nearby! Everything was perfect☺️

The 3 bedroom condo was in exceptional shape and very clean. The location is very secure with attentive 24 hour security. The beachfront location is excellent with Croc’s resort access a huge benefit.

Absolutely perfect—like stepping into the pages of a nature magazine. Nestled near the forest beside the stunning ocean, it offers the best of both worlds: peaceful seclusion and all the modern comforts you need. Everything is conveniently close by, yet the tranquility makes it feel worlds away. The silence is incredibly soothing. The dogs on the property are so sweet and comforting—they really helped with how much I was missing mine back home. 10/10, I would definitely book again!

The house was beautiful. Everything about it was high spec and very good quality. Gabriel was excellent at check-in. The private pool was wonderful and the whole place was spotlessly clean. The walk into the town centre is about 15/20 mins. if we were staying longer we would hire a car or golf buggy. I would definitely stay again.

🌟 A Hidden Gem in Costa Rica – Hotel Zócalo is Pure Magic! 🌟This beautiful boutique hotel is a perfect blend of charm, comfort, and authentic local warmth. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Every interaction felt personal and sincere – it’s clear they truly care about their guests. Our room was stunning – immaculately clean and tastefully decorated with local touches. We woke up each morning to the sound of tropical birds and enjoyed fresh coffee on the balcony overlooking lush greenery. What really sets Hotel Zócalo apart is the vibe – it’s peaceful, inviting, and full of character. Whether you’re relaxing by the pool or enjoying locally-sourced breakfast it all feels effortlessly comfortable. The location is perfect close to beautiful beaches, adventure excursions, and vibrant local culture, but still tucked away enough to feel like a true retreat. If you’re looking for a place that offers an unforgettable experience, Hotel Zócalo is it.

I feel so lucky I got to stay here. This home is located in a private, beach front community with other travelers and locals. The pool was beautiful with a swim up bar and macaws flying over our heads and hanging out in the nearby trees. The home was beautiful and very clean, it was easy to feel at home and get a good night’s rest. The home is beautifully designed yet very cozy. The host was awesome and provided us a list of local food, activities, and more! They didn’t miss a beat. I highly recommend choosing this home for your stay in Costa Rica. Also, Jaco and the surrounding areas are so extremely beautiful. This was the most incredible trips of my life, everyone I met was so cool and friendly, the food was amazing, and the wildlife was breathtaking. If you have the opportunity, please don’t pass it up!

We enjoyed this beautiful, clean, home.

Everything was perfect! The location and the house all met our expectations. Danny & the team were always kind and approachable. When we found that wasps were building a nest at the house, the team was there within an hour and the issue was resolved immediately. The pool was clean and in the best condition. We had the best vacation and would be happy to come back!

The house and property were as described and expected and we were extremely happy with our stay! We were specifically looking for something outside of the typical tourist spots and Gary’s place did not disappoint. Gary specifically stated that the mosquito population at his house was low and he was absolutely right! Just a few tips and recommendations for other potential visitors. - The kayaks must be taken down the hill to the beach for each use for security reasons. We hesitated to use them until our last day for this reason but we wish we hadn’t. Gary made it very easy and he took them down on his car. It’s an easy paddle to some snorkeling and nice beach areas. You can avoid paying for parking and hauling gear. - there is a public road between the pool area and beach where locals like to park and hang out. Shrubbery gives visual privacy but you may hear music. This did not detract from our stay. Overall we absolutely recommend this house to others.

We loved it very much, the house was super nice and spacious, the host was always attentive and always helped us whenever we asked, he was always attentive and super flexible.

Beautiful home right on the beach with amazing host who was always right there to assist when needed. The home was immaculate and beds very comfortable. The kitchen was stocked with everything you could need. The living room was a great relaxing spot and my favourite was the patio table overlooking the pool. We loved this home and you can tell the owner takes pride in hosting. We will be back at the first opportunity . Highly recommended. Thank you for an amazing few days!

I had a wonderful stay at Fanny’s place! The apartment was clean, cozy, and exactly as described. The location was perfect – close to everything but still peaceful and quiet at night. Fanny was a fantastic host: friendly, responsive, and always happy to help with any questions. I really appreciated her attention to detail and the warm welcome. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend her place to anyone visiting the area!

Great apartment at a secure location. Pool just outside and access to the beach. Access to the casino next door with restaurant options and an even bigger pool. Can walk the street or beach to the downtown in 20 minutes or get a cab/Uber if the weather is too hot.

Leonardo was friendly and responsive and made check in process a breeze. Location is a 10/10, with easy access to beach and pool area, as well as walking distance to great restaurants and a local market. Highlight of our trip was seeing a sloth hanging in the trees on the beach! Would definitely choose to stay here again.

This is a perfect place for our group of seven. Awesome and beautiful place. Brittany was great, very responsive and very helpful.

I was driving south and needed a place to stay last minute and Josep responded within 1 minute with my question which was great. We were traveling with two cars and there was no issue with parking. I think the listing says 1 car space available but there was room for two which was what we needed. Thank you.

Our stay at Damien’s place was perfect for our family. The place was clean, in a great location (walkable to many restaurants, the beach, stores, etc) and access to the pool was perfect for us and our 3 year old. Damien was an incredible host and went above and beyond to make our stay easy. He helped us with local tours, recommendations, and set us up with items for our daughter specially. The kind of host you wish for every time! Would absolutely stay again and would highly recommend to anyone!

Great spot to stay at, can’t wait to get back there!

We had a great time at the apartment, which was exactly as described. The building is brand new and the unit has good wi-fi, cold (and necessary) A/C and fans, new appliances, comfortable beds, and decent soundproofing. The unit directly faces the ocean so most of the Jaco nightlife noise is avoided other than from the beach below. The building appears to be almost exclusively vacation rentals, so has a feel more like a hotel than an Airbnb - not a bad thing, just an observation. It's a quick short block walk to the main Jaco street with restaurants and shopping. The beach view is incredible from the unit and also the rooftop, though you almost don't need to go up there since you're on the 11th floor anyway (elevators were busy but reliable). Overall we were very happy with our stay and appreciated the hosts' responsiveness especially when the building unexpectedly lost water for several hours (not a common occurrence). Pool was also awesome and never to busy even on a holiday.
