Stunning Views from Coffee Country Villa - 25 min
We loved our stay at this Airbnb in Alajuela, Costa Rica. From the first moment we felt very welcome. The place is comfortable, clean, and has everything you need for a pleasant stay. The location is perfect, close to the airport but in a quiet area, ideal for resting. In addition, the host was incredibly kind and attentive, always available to help us with any questions or recommendations. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to other travelers.

Luxury Romantic Villa in Escazu w/Jacuzzi & Views
We have stayed with Gil many times over the past four years, and it’s always our favorite place! The home is private, has a beautiful view, and is conveniently close to shopping and restaurants. On this visit, we really noticed and appreciated all the recent improvements: A new water system with stable, strong pressure TV with 1000+ channels in the living room Surround sound in both the bedroom and living room New patio furniture A comfortable sofa in the master bedroom A new mirror in the master bathroom A professional-grade juice maker Fresh paint and repairs throughout Gil’s care and attention to the property really show. We always look forward to returning!

Modern 2 Bedroom Oceanview CONDO In JACO
Excellent accommodation, very well equipped. Comfortable bedding, impeccable cleanliness. We had a wonderful stay at Guillermo's place with whom the communication was very nice. We will be back!

Privacy, paradise, panoramic views.
Great space, wonderful views and the grounds were beautiful with all the flowers. Really enjoyed the hot tub and the beds were nice and cozy. Stopped there as a half way point to the Caribbean coast. Was a tad difficult finding, but it was in the dark and once we got to Aquarius and looked at the pictures we got there no problem. Host was responsive. Thank you for sharing your wonderful house.

Magical Tropical Villa Jaco Beach Pool & Jacuzzi
Three of us stayed at Wanderlust to celebrate the upcoming wedding of a friend. Our stay was nothing short of amazing. Highlights of the accommodations were the incredibly comfortable beds, the peaceful atmosphere and the fantastic hot tub. What really makes this place stand out is Jai. Jai could not have done more to make our stay a magical occasion. She provided us with impeccable food and drink recommendations, connected us with local, trustworthy transportation and bent over backwards to make sure everything was perfect. Jai really is a special treat. We all hope to be back someday.

Volare: Awaken Above the Clouds, Absolute Privacy
A absolute privilege to spend a few days here as a family. A gem of a house that felt immediately like a home. We loved the quirks and the passion for enjoyment. Top of our price range but to us it was worth every penny. Thank you Tucker.

Tropical Oasis 5 min to SJO airport W/ cozy deck
We didn’t get to enjoy all of the great amenities of this place as we arrived in the evening and had early flights in the morning. I wish we had more time as your home was so welcoming and the outside space very inviting.

Ocean view. Close to Jaco (1 or optional 2 bdms)
We had a great time! The apartment is very comfortable and has a beautiful view It is close to attractions.

Quinta Esencia Loft near SJO Airport & PoásVolcano
Nice loft in peaceful neighborhood and with an amazing view. Had all amenities we needed. Would definitely recommend.

Playa Nido Rosa - Beachfront + Pool + Private Palapa
Beautiful off the beaten path home next to the beach. House was beautiful with air conditioning that helped on the hot and humid days. Beach was just across the street which was nice though rip tides were possible so had to swim during certain times of the day to avoid them. Jefferson was always responsive with anything we needed and even offered to do laundry for a small fee which was nice and convenient.

Cerro Mar
Beautiful house, nice pool, wonderful view. Thank you, Carlos!

The house in the woods
If you're looking for an immersive experience in nature without straying too far from comfort, this is the place to be. Although it is only a few meters from the road and next to a supermarket, once inside the property you feel surrounded by vegetation, with views of plants and trees, as shown in the photos. It is important to note that there are no conventional windows, but rather mosquito nets or screens, allowing a more direct connection with the environment. The experience of disconnecting is very pleasant and the fan in the room was a great help, as the heat and humidity can be intense. A nice touch is that different types of birds visit the Airbnb in the mornings, making the stay even more special. In addition, the accommodation has parking, which is a plus. Overall, an excellent choice for those seeking authentic contact with nature without sacrificing comfort

Prado Pacifico 1bdrm/1bath House - w/ Private Pool
Absolutely incredible place to stay for a honeymoon :) we were there for just over a week, and we really loved our little home base. Jan was so helpful with recommendations and even booked our reservation for Manuel Antonio with her Costa Rican debit card since we couldn't do it ourselves. With as helpful as she was, she also gave us total privacy and communicated very effectively with us. I know the person before us mentioned insect issues, but we had no complaints whatsoever and were there for an extended period of time. We were able to see hummingbirds, scarlet macaws, lizards, and other varieties of birds which made just sitting by the pool a fun experience. The shading was perfect for the pool too. You could decide if you wanted to sit in the shade or the sun depending how you feel. The AC cools down the bedroom very fast when arriving home. The private driveway is convenient too. We loved our stay so much! We would certainly consider coming back if in town!

Peaceful Paradise, In the Jungle of Manuel Antonio
Would rent here again without hesitation! The location is great. We loved being close to town and things to do but still having all the jungle vibes! We saw lots of monkeys right in the back yard! Alex and Glen were both very friendly. We also did the mangrove Kayak tour with Alex & Goldie (his pup)! Would highly recommend that tour! Overall we really enjoyed our stay here!

Allegro Condominium. Excellent value for money
nice place, they were flexible. i recommend it.

Linda Villa, Esparza, Puntarenas, Costa Rica
A typical recreational quinoa with each very clean and well equipped comfy. The excellent social area. We did BBQ and it has a great time at the pool. Extremely special night with lights and everything you need. Come on and shower outdoors as well. A 10! Very communicative hosts.

Casa Camino Viejo, private home and pool.
We loved Gretel’s place - it was a beautiful spot and we felt right at home. It has a fantastic kitchen, a spacious living area, nice bedrooms and a great porch. The pool was really refreshing and was a nice escape from the afternoon heat. We also got to see some amazing wildlife close up - we were visited by some squirrel monkeys, a howler monkey, a toucan and a pair of Scarlett Macaws. It is in close proximity to Manuel Antonio National Park and a bunch of other excursions and near many great local restaurants. I highly recommend.

Villa Camino Corral by Vacation Pura Vida
The house is beautiful, super spacious and has everything you need to have a great time with friends. The kitchen is well-equipped for cooking. We went with my 6-year-old daughter and the pool was perfect for her, it's not very slingshot. It's pet friendly (paying a fee) and there's plenty of outdoor space for puppies. The beach is very close. Near the house there is a small shopping center where there is a supermarket and you can find everything. There are also restaurants in case you don't want to cook.

Private Jungle Palace with Designer Pool
My friends and I spent the last five nights at Matthew’s property and thoroughly enjoyed the home and environment from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. The house and backyard pool layout are very unique and well laid out for a good time shared with friends. I highly suggest considering Matthew’s property for anyone looking to enjoy their own slice of paradise in Playa Hermosa!

Casa Pura Vida
absolutely loved this home. from the private pool, beautiful home and property, great place to see the local birds like macaw and toucan from the back yard and super close to everything we wanted to do. would highly recommend and will book again soon! thank you so much for letting us stay in your home!

Casa Bosque Verde - Hidden Oasis w/ Private Pool
We absolutely loved staying here. Everything was magical and sitting outside was relaxing. We saw so many animals while staying there and the kids loved the pool! We had a grocery store and Soda walking distance away. Antonio was a gem. He did not speak English but he made sure everything was pristine. He is a true gem and willing to help direct parking and open the gate for us Some tips to help others….everything here is similar to the states. No suicide showers and lots of power plugs. Really the only issue we had is the upper bedrooms were too light and it gets bright early. Wasn’t a huge problem for us because we got up early to do activities while it was cool. We loved our stay! This place has ALL of the Pura Vida vibes.

Hear the Waves! Pool Home Close to the Beach!
Very close to the beach with great shaded areas to sit. Amazing sunrises and sunsets! Low tide was awesome, lots of exploring, and enjoying the tide pools. High tide there are great waves for surfing! Very quiet during the week, busier on the weekend. We had the pleasure of a local band practicing on the beach!! Area is safe for walking, there are a few of great places to eat, and a small supermarket within walking distance. Yes there are local dogs that wander, and sometimes they bark, certainly didn’t encounter any aggressive ones. The house is clean, pool is clean, bed is comfortable and air conditioners work well. If you like to cook some meals while on vacation, bring what you need(oil, salt, pepper, spices) Could use a few more utensils for cooking(spatula, tongs..) a couple tea towels. Overall a great location, with a very nice property manager on site. This is our second visit, we would likely return to stay again. Thanks Lorenzo for the hospitality!!
