Family-friendly vacation rentals in Tivives beach

My friends and I (group of 8 ladies) stayed here for one night at the end of our girls trip vacation in Costa Rica. Lily’s house is absolutely gorgeous. We all had plenty of room and enjoyed our last day in CR. It is close enough to walk to a Fresh Market. The grounds keeper, Nery, was available for any of our questions and very helpful and friendly. It was very close to the airport. Loved our time there and we all wished we could have spent another day or two there to enjoy the beautiful house.

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.

We had a fantastic stay at Gil's place!.... The house was exactly as pictured, location was perfect and the view at night is priceless.... We would definitely recommend this Airbnb and would love to stay here again.

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!

amazing place with beautiful views including toucans in the mornings and monkeys right down the street! very spacious and i honestly felt right at home. the host helped me by getting a birthday cake for one of my guests and helped us get home when the road was closed. they were a saving grace and made our stay worth it. thank you guys for everything!

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.

Super cute the apartment and pool is very close to the apartment! There is a gym also the pool pair!

Moonshine Inn was great! It was comfortable and quiet, and the pool was nice! It was convenient to all of the attractions in Manuel Antonio. Nothing was more than a few minutes’ drive away. Martin and Lorena were excellent hosts. They provided lots of great local information, helped book tours, and even arranged to deliver an item my daughter left. We had a great trip. Don’t miss the guided nature walk. It was phenomenal, and we saw so many animals! Enjoy!

Everything's perfect Thank you 🙏🏽

We had a wonderful stay though very brief as we just needed a stopover place to spend the night on our drive. The host could not have been more responsive and the Airbnb was very comfortable and clean. We wish that we had been able to stay longer! Highly recommend!!

Nice loft in peaceful neighborhood and with an amazing view. Had all amenities we needed. Would definitely recommend.

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

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

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!

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!

Great stay! Two blocks from downtown, walkable. We rented bikes from a neighbor. Pool was perfect. Safe neighborhood. We're already planning another stay👍🏽

Matthew and his team were phenomenal. The house was also great and matches the description. Our stay was private and peaceful. A beautiful quiet location but still only a 5 minute drive to downtown Jaco. For the price I don’t believe there is a better choice. Plenty of towels, hot water and the air conditioning worked well. Some of us needed to access emails etc. the wifi worked well and the speeds were fine as well. The living room and master bedroom have tv’s. The pool vibes were awesome while drinking a cold beer looking at the surrounding mountain ranges. They made the transportation very easy for us to and from the airport. We also had a rental car waiting for us when we arrived to the house for a reasonable price. Go book this place you wont regret it. Pura Vida!

nice place, they were flexible. i recommend it.

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.

Luis who stays at the property is a kind man and very, helpful with any questions that you may have. The property is very private and you have an amazing long view of nature and the forest. The pool is also very private. We saw many animals/birds/reptiles at the property. There is a fence that surrounds the property and a gate that is easy to use. My wife and I would highly recommend this place. We absolutely loved it.

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.

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.

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!

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.
