Vacation rentals with a patio in Gulf of Nicoya

Truly amazing stay. Laura could not of been a better host. From the start we felt right at home and Laura was kind enough to offer us rides to town to show us around. She made us feel right at home and her property is beautiful. For getting to town just use Uber, it’s really cheap! Casa Catalina is the perfect spot in Tamarindo and Laura could not have been a better more thoughtful host!

We absolutely loved our stay! The location was perfect—close to a variety of tours, great places to eat, and local attractions. One of our favorite spots, El Salto (the rope swing), was just a 5-minute walk away! The space itself was cozy, comfortable, and very welcoming. We especially enjoyed spotting hummingbirds around the property and catching views of the volcano on clear days—such a treat! Everything about our stay was incredible. The only small note is that the place provides two body towels, which may be a bit limiting for longer stays. It’s also helpful to bring your own quick-dry towels for excursions, as the provided ones aren’t allowed outside the property. Otherwise, it was a fantastic experience and we’d definitely come back!

The place was beautiful, and although the pictures looked great, in person it is much more. The area is very quiet and the amenities of the suite are very useful and enjoyable, in addition to the fact that there are very good restaurants around (I highly recommend the nearby pizza restaurant), the only aspect is that perhaps the gates require more oil to go up or higher faster, but it did not affect the stay at all. Highly recommended and I would definitely go back.

I 100% recommend this accommodation, the place is amazing and private, super beautiful, and very centrally located. Beautiful views from the balcony, and easily accessible by car

This airbnb was so comfortable to stay in, the room darkening blinds and extremely comfortable bed and bedsheets were great, loved the space and the full kitchen. My bf and I were able to make nice meals here and we saw lots of wildlife from our balcony - macaws and deer. The hosts were always responsive and so helpful with recommendations for me. The place was very clean.

First we were received with some chocolates! I loved it. The apartment was great—clean and neat, with only what we needed. It was the perfect place to stay, near the beach and ideal for relaxation. The space was well-organized and spacious enough to feel comfortable inside the apartment. The mattresses were great for a good night's rest, and each room had individual temperature control. The view from every room was fantastic, and the sound of the sea could be heard from the balcony. At sunrise, the view of the entire bay, combined with the sound of birds, was enchanting. From the balcony, it was easy to appreciate when the conditions were good for surfing. The apartment was located in a private area, and the shared property was well maintained. The beach was just a short walk from the property, and the commercial area—with great restaurants—was also nearby. This is a fantastic choice for a stay.

Great central location. Near surging break as well.

We stayed at Miguel's listing recently and were very happy! The unit itself is gorgeous with everything meeting our needs, and the host was very responsive, helpful and made the check-in and check-out process very straightforward with clear instructions. I would definitely recommend this unit and would stay here again!

Our stay here was amazing! Chris and Hollie were extremely responsive throughout our entire stay and provided great recommendations for local restaurants, activities, etc. We highly recommend a 4x4 if available for the drive and enjoyed the scenic views along the trip up the mountain. The house is perfectly designed with modern features and everything you need to ensure you feel right at home. The back porch was incredible for morning coffee and enjoying the views of the beach and jungle, while listening and seeing the wildlife surrounding us. We were extremely comfortable during our stay and enjoyed opening up the doors at night to let the cool ocean breeze pass through. What makes this place extra special is Chris and Hollie. We enjoyed getting to know more about them, the property, their vision for future projects, and you can see their genuine joy for hosting guests. They were readily available when asking questions and made sure we were comfortable. Thank you for a great trip!

Gorgeous, light-filled, well-stocked place! We loved every minute of our stay. The pool was definitely a major highlight. Comfy beds.

This house is lovely and the view is gorgeous. We spent much of our time on the porch enjoying the pool, hot tub and view. I highly recommend some time relaxing at the house. Fabian was very helpful in planning excursions. The beds were so comfortable and there was plenty of hot water! We also were grateful for enough seating for everyone in our party both outside and in the living room. We did have a 1 year old with us and that was challenging in the layout of the house but we made it work. Highly recommend this house and this area. So much to do! Do the daytime Mangrove tour and guided MA park tour. Pura Vida!

The most incredible view! One of the best locations we have ever stayed for sunsets, dramatic views, and wildlife. Wonderful hosts. I will add...this is a great place for explorers. It's not ideal for high maintenance folks. There are bugs, that get into the house. There's no AC - although the fans and mountain air made it comfortable for us. Very remote - amazing if that floats your boat - be ready to drive for any stores/restaurants etc. Overall, highly recommend 5 stars. If you're looking for luxury, look somewhere else.

Finca Totoro is jaw dropping!! The pictures show everything but once you pull in, your eyes will pop and youll find yourself saying “oh my god!” Its stunning. Gorgeous layout, gorgeous views, private pool, private jacuzzi, hiking trails, absolutely amazing. I cannot say it enough, this place is a perfect place to relax, enjoy nature, music, your loved one, its super special. The pictures on airbnb do not do Finca Totoro justice. Its remarkable.

We had an amazing time staying here. It’s just the right amount of remote, super peaceful and surrounded by nature, but still close to everything you want to do. Honestly, it was more than we could’ve wished for. The place itself is beautiful, with jungle all around, constant sounds of birds and animals, and an incredible view. Will was an awesome host. Being a local, he gave us the best tips – where to surf, great places to eat, and even where to get the freshest fish (or catch it yourself!). As others have said, you’ll definitely need a quad or a car to get there because the road is bumpy. But honestly, that just added to the fun and you should get one anyway for the best CR experience. When we visit Santa Teresa again we would definitely stay here again. Totally recommend it to anyone!

Such a great property with relaxing and beautiful views. Got a chance to see lots of different birds and butterflies right on the property even heard some monkeys but they were far away. Over all a great place to stay if you just want to get away and be around nature

We have enjoyed our stay at Chris’s place a lot. It truly felt like a home with lots of appliances and all was super tidy and clean. I will be staying here again for sure! Thank you Chris :)

Beautiful place and great price. Would highly recommend if staying in San Jose area. Host is super responsive and helpful. Checkin and out directions are super clear and a private parking space is available.

We loved it. We were able to rest and relax. The apartment is very cozy, with everything you need.

Highly recommended! In all ways

Everything went great. Ignacio was helpful and responsive

Great host. Very quick to respond. Clean condo with beautiful views of San Jose city. It’s a must. Jorge is a great guy. Beautiful place.

Beautiful condo in a secure location. Very kind and proactive hosts, provided lots of useful information.

This apartment is lovely! Very clean, safe, and located in a walkable area. There are many restaurants and breakfast places in the area as well. If you’re vegan, check out Puralma it’s a 6 minute walk from the unit.

Great host, clean place, a little bit of a walk from the parking lot, but overall great experience.
