Vacation rentals in Costa Rica

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Punta Preciosa. The location is beautiful and private. The beach was virtually deserted most of the time. The swimming was fantastic and it was also nice to walk along the sandy beach early in the morning and watch the Scarlet Macaws and other birds. Pascal was an excellent host. He was very responsive to my inquiries and often responded within the hour. He has created a very helpful digital welcome book which you receive access to after booking. He helped arranged excellent tours for us, all of which I would recommend - kayak tour of the mangrove, boat And snorkelling tour of the Gulf, a night walk and a trip to Corcovado. The house is very nice and is tastefully and comfortably furnished. The gas stove and oven took some figuring out but worked well. There is no microwave or dishwasher. The main floor is open to the air so there were some insects at night but using the fan and insect repellent helped. We would love to go back again.

Our stay at Casa Pura Vida was phenomenal. Everything was just as described and Norwin was extremely helpful with instructions and area highlights. The wildlife was right there with you. Greeted in the morning by hummingbirds and macaws. Hanging out in the evening with lizards and geckos. This was a fantastic find. Definitely would stay again if we come back to La Fortuna.

Best hosts we have ever had. Very responsive to any issue that came up also had these wonderful decorations that my wife loved and we couldn’t find they went above and beyond and called around to find us the only place that carried them! It is secluded very well maintained and the view is spectacular! Located 30 minute drive from Manuel Antonio and Uvita only 15 minutes from Dominical. It is up in the mountains so rent a 4X4. Wild Rider rentals is cheaper and amazing way better than other rental companies in CR as a pro tip. Thank you so much we will definitely be back!

We were all so excited when we arrived. The house and the view were exactly what the photos showed. We enjoyed sitting on the deck, looking at the amazing view around us. The restaurants near us were all great. Karen the owner and Olmer the concierge were great at responding to our questions. We would definitely love to go back!!

Jose's house was in a nice private location with only one other house adjacent. It is a great place if you want some quiet time away from everything. Jose was extremely helpful and proactive in helping with some issues that came up during the heavy rains. The house is a really nice layout with a small casita adjacent to the poolif you want separation from others. I would recommend but be prepared to deal with bugs and keeping doors closed in the evening since it is out in the countryside. If that is of no matter to you then its a really nice and relaxing place.

Very clean and a fantastic view! Highly recommend

This home was exactly what we needed. Tucked away in the peaceful town of Bejuco, it felt like a private jungle retreat with the soothing sounds of nature all around. The house was spacious and beautifully laid out—the bedrooms are downstairs in a cooler, quieter part of the home, which made for super restful nights. The pool was perfect for relaxing and soaking in the surroundings, and the location couldn’t be better. It’s quiet and secluded, but still an easy drive to both Quepos and Jaco. Rosie was a wonderful host—friendly, helpful, and full of great recommendations. Check-in was smooth thanks to her and Felipe, who even helped carry our bags in. We absolutely loved our stay and would return in a heartbeat. Highly recommend!

Andrew and Brenda’s was the perfect place for our girls trip and a highlight of our time in CR! Beautiful surroundings, great local restaurants, and not far from beach. We had plenty of space for the three of us, it was very clean, and we appreciated the washer dryer. Road was a bit steep coming up but the view was well worth it. Highly recommend for anyone staying in the area!

The places is beautiful just as in the pictures and we had a great stay! Communication was great and the check-in and check-out was easy. We also forgot an item here and Melissa was very helpful in shipping it back to us after the stay.

Genaro is a great host. Friendly, helpful and communicates well. All the information needed to have a seem-less experience was provided to us prior to arriving, which gave us a piece of mind. The room is very spacious and beautiful; the pictures do not do it justice. The area is walkable with great places to eat. The area is also quiet and serene which made enjoying the outdoor space relaxing including the volcano view from the rooftop terrace. Breathtaking! There is some construction in the area that can be heard during the day but it didn’t bother us much as we spent that time doing excursions. Would definitely recommend anyway and plan on returning!

Absolutely beautiful house up in the hills. Property management company they have managing the place is really great and very helpful. There was a significant storm that occurred that blocked the main road up to the house and they helped get us up to the house as it helps to know a bit about the roads which from the highway are very steep. AC works well which helps given how warm it can be and it was very quiet up at the house.

One of the best places we stayed in Costa Rica. Very clean, tastefully decorated, well equipped. Good quality bedding and linens. Loved the toiletries. Only issue: swimming pool is not suitable for people with knee or mobility issues as the first step to get inside is too deep and there are no security rails. Floors are slippery when wet.

We very much enjoyed our stay at Karen and Chiri's home. Esterillos Oeste is a charming little village off the beaten path and provides a great "local" experience with charm. At the same time, it is close enough to more populated cities like Jaco and Quepos that we were able to visit by a relatively short car ride during our stay. The home is a short walk to the beach and you can hear the ocean waves from the balcony, which was lovely. Karen and Chiri were welcoming hosts and their restaurant Los Almendros was excellent! We would stay again and would recommend to friends. Thank you!

We loved stating at Willys villa. The place grew on us over our two-night stay. The home is modern, well decorated, and has thoughtful touches throughout to make for a comfortable and functional stay. We enjoyed cooking meals at the villa; the Super Rosvli grocery store is located close by and the kitchen was well stocked. The bureau provides space for storing clothing. There are several outdoor sitting areas. We enjoyed eating breakfast on the back patio and listening to the sounds of the birds and insects. Both levels of the home have separate AC units which were quick to turn on and cool down the living spaces. The property was well-manicured with lush greenery. The internet worked well (fast). We appreciated the welcome gift - a bottle of wine. The washer dryer were in working order, and we appreciated the ability to have clean clothing mid-vacation. The half bath on the main floor was great to provide a second space to get ready when leaving early for morning tours. 5 stars!

Absolutely stunning!! Our experience at this Airbnb was easily the best experience we’ve ever had. Karen was amazing. No words can describe how helpful, friendly, and awesome she was!! The Airbnb was everything we could have hoped for. Views were amazing. Wildlife was amazing. Experience was amazing. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Anyone visiting Santa Teresa should 1000% stay here. ATV needed and super fun way to get around. Monkeys,hummingbirds, birds, & butterfly’s, you name it, was there. Super cool! Thank you for giving us an amazing experience!!! PURA VIDA!!

Our stay at the villa was absolutely perfect! the ideal base for exploring Santa Teresa. The property is a true oasis of luxury and tranquility, tucked away in nature with an incredible ocean view from the stunning infinity pool. Every detail of the villa is thoughtfully designed to offer comfort and peace. Judit was a fantastic host, always quick to respond and extremely helpful throughout our stay. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, highly recommended!

If I could give Sarah and her place 5+ stars I would. While her place is off the beaten path, she makes it so easy to find, enter and relax. I have nothing but positive things to say. She has thought of everything, 7 steps ahead; from the guest book digitally and in person, local contacts for boat trips, meals and more! Her communication is superb, always checking in, she answers the crazies of questions with patients and grace. I mentioned it was my dad’s 70th birthday trip and when we arrived she had a birthday basket and HBD message with his name hand painted on local wood. WOW just WOW! Her place is top notch, the best I’ve ever stayed. She made this trip ultra special and I’m forever grateful. Customer service is King (Queen) and she is the Queen. If things ran like she runs her BnB all would been good in the world. Companies should take note. PS I’ve already booked my second trip with her. PPS Usually I try to avoid ABnBs but I will always make an exception for her and her place.

The listing pictures as well as pictures we took while we were there looked nice but did not capture how beautiful this place is. Absolutely extraordinary setting and great launching off point for activities in Monteverde. All shops and most excursions were 15 minutes from the house down gorgeous winding roads. SJO airport only 2.5 hours from this side of monteverde. The hot tub was a really nice feature as the temps leveled out in the evenings. Wonderful experience.

Beautiful, peaceful minimalist lodge. When the clouds broke, the view of the volcano was spectacular! Jen and Franz are exceptional hosts with fantastic taste. Their trained chef- level breakfasts were the best food we had on the trip. Let them know in advance if you’d like the six course meal so they can source ingredients. The lodge is tastefully created and open yet private. Be comfortable with your lodge partner should two people stay there…little privacy within the lodge (i.e., bathroom). Highly recommend Asia Tica Lodge!

I love how private and peaceful the house is. Definitely a romantic getaway. And thank you to Maria for being so responsive and helpful.

Vera was recommended to us by our relocation team, whom we have hired to help us move. She has been in Costa Rica a long time and gave us some incredible advice and went out of her way to make us feel right at home 🏡

It’s impossible to capture the beauty of Achoite in words. The design of the villa and the attention to every detail are absolutely incredible. The views are breathtaking, and the space is peaceful, private, and deeply connected to nature. It’s truly the perfect escape. We had a private chef and a massage arranged during our stay — both experiences were unforgettable and well worth it, especially in such a stunning setting. The hosts were wonderful — so helpful, responsive, and full of fantastic recommendations. Achoite is a once-in-a-lifetime stay, and we feel so lucky to have experienced it!

My husband and I were very satisfied with our stay. It was our own little paradise. We ordered breakfast every morning and gave the time we wanted the hot tub on every night. Everything was on time and great. Close to town, but very peaceful.

We enjoyed the time at the Airbnb very much. Raquel and her husband were super nice and friendly and gave us tips on what to do in the area. The beaches nearby were very nice and quiet. The tiny house was really great and you had a great view. The house was lovingly decorated and cozy. It was just a little too warm for us to sleep without air conditioning, but otherwise everything was perfect.
