Beachfront Residence in the Center of Jaco JBV3
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!

Vibrant villa #10 by the beach, pool + lush greens
Great location! Walking distance to all the places in town and right by the ocean. We enjoyed our stay!

Playa Mantas | 7th Floor | Sea View | QUEEN BED |
We spent a couple of amazing days in this place. The apartment is beautiful, very clean and cared for in every detail. It is surrounded by nature, which makes the experience extremely relaxing and special. We felt completely safe and calm throughout the stay, ideal for resting and disconnecting. The setting is perfect for those seeking peace, fresh air and natural beauty. We would definitely recommend it and would love to come back. Thank you for everything!

Ocean view, modern condo
The accommodation exceeded our expectations. It was spotlessly clean, something we greatly value and the space was very well equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay. Nia was incredibly attentive and made sure we had everything we needed.

Diamante 302s - Beachfront Luxury
What a great stay! The place looks exactly like the pictures. Was super nice and comfortable. Definitely worth the money we paid. Would highly recommend!

El Rancho view from your balcony
Our stay in Manuel Antonio was nothing short of magical. Though the space was compact, it was beautifully designed and felt like a hidden gem nestled in nature. The panoramic view was absolutely stunning—easily one of the best we’ve seen. The hosts were incredibly welcoming, the hygiene standards were top-notch, and the overall vibe was serene and refreshing. An unforgettable stay at an unbeatable price!

Mordern Apartment Between the Jungle & the Sea!
The apartment is beautiful and super comfortable! With everything you need and more! The truth is that we feel super comfortable and better than at home! Thank you for being so attentive! Andreina was super courteous and answered quickly whenever we asked her for information! Thank you, we'll be back!!!! Beautiful

Hermosa Beachfront - Apartment 3
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!
Holiday House Rentals with beach access

Stunning Beachfront Home!
This place was amazing! We have stayed in hermosa many times and love the area. This trip we traveled with 6 couples and a few kids and had plenty of space. The open area common area is big enough for everyone and having the pool was amazing. We truly appreciated the daily maid service and the recommendation for a private chef was incredible. Liza cooked us 5 breakfasts and 3 dinners and all were spectacular, on time, and had plenty of food for everyone (always had leftovers). Not having to waste time grocery shopping or doing dishes was a huge plus! For anyone who may book her just a heads up that the expectation is to pay for groceries after each meal (she provides receipt) and then you’ll pay the service charge at the last meal (it’s very reasonable). It was a little tough for us to communicate so took us some time to put that info together. Figured it’d help someone else! 10000% want to come back and stay here.

Casa de las Lapas. Monkeys & Macaws!
Absolutely perfect. One of the best airbnbs I’ve ever stayed in. And the best host experience as well with Marianna. I kept saying the whole stay “this is my dream house!” Perfect for families. Our kids spent hours in the pool every day we were there. We hope to be back soon!

Colonial Palace (2)
If you find yourself in Puntarenas and have a taste for history and true hospitality, Casa Fait is the place to go. The house itself is beautifully and carefully restored to it’s early 20th century splendour, which is completely surreal given today’s reality of the fisherman town. The hosts are beyond welcoming and shared a lot of stories, recommendations, anecdotes and wisdom. It has been a great experience on our journey through Costa Rica.

🏖 BRAND NEW MODERN 🏖 Home #1 Seconds from Beach
🌟 5/5 — Minimalist Beach Bliss! We absolutely loved our stay at Spencer's place! The space was a breath of fresh air — clean lines, calming tones, and that minimalist design that somehow makes you feel instantly relaxed. With a family of 5, space and functionality matter, and this spot delivered both. Best part? We were just a short stroll to the beach — close enough for spontaneous swims and sunset walks. 🏖️🌅 Spencer was an all-star host — super responsive, friendly, and made sure everything was smooth from start to finish. We felt well taken care of. If you're looking for a stylish, serene, and beach-adjacent getaway, book this gem! ✨

Mono Montaña Ocean View Luxury House private pool
Honestly this place is more incredible in person than the photos, which is hard to believe! If you book this place, just know that there’s a steep incline getting to the house so make sure you rent an appropriate vehicle for that. There aren’t places that are walkable nearby in my opinion, but that’s the price you pay for an amazing view and this type of house. Vanessa was awesome- make sure to use the private chef service and the beach service! Both were awesome. We also highly recommend eating at Ronny’s for lunch

Lovely beachfront family house with private pool
The sunsets alone were worth every penny!! We raced back to the house every night just to watch the colors change. The house itself is quaint, clean, organized and quite perfect! It’s small but they have what is needed to hang your clothes as there is not a lot of room to leave open luggage. Our family ran and played on the quiet beach. I think we saw 5 people total.. great hard packed sand for morning and evening walks. There was a spot that was very dirty (glass, plastic, etc) from high tide that you would want to wear shoes to walk through. Giovanni was thorough in communications and quick to respond! His directions were very much appreciated. We knew there weren’t a ton of amenities nearby. But it’s no joke, when you leave the house pack what you need as it’s not near activities and has very limited eating. Not an issue for most - just a heads up!

Manuel Antonio Beachfront! Private Pool 2 bedroom
Such an awesome location! The beach out front was great, the house was so perfect, lots of space to spend out! The outdoor shower was amazing! They were super helpful with getting us reservations for dinner and tickets to the park. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. The shared area has laundry and a pool table my kids loved. 10/10!

Paradise Found
Paradise found is an apt name. What a beautiful home in a beautiful place. I stayed for 4 nights with my wife and 3 teenage boys. The home was clean and well stocked with all the items we needed to make meals in the kitchen. Jose, the caretaker, met us at check in and showed us the lay of the land. We had access to the garage that had surf boards and body boards. The pool was clean and warm, and we had fun jumping in and splashing around. The beach across the street is a close to private as you can get. It goes on for miles each direction. The only people we saw were the occasional local fishing or some folks taking a stroll on horseback. Waves were huge and fun to play in. Watch out for rip tides! The directions to the home were great. The house is located between Jaco and Manuel Antonio. Both fun spots to explore. Thank you Mary and Jose for making our family trip unforgettable. We cant wait to return.
Holiday condos with beach access

Luxury Beach Front Condo with pool. Fifth floor.
This condo was exceptionally clean with a beautiful view. It was a very brief walk to the Main Street. Everything was literally five minute walk. They are picky with who they host (with good reason) because of how pristine it is. Thank you :)

Cozy beachfront apartment, welcome to paradise
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!

Luxury on the Beach - Diamante del Sol 3bd/3.5bath
Josephine communicated clearly and timely. The condo met my family's need. We needed a place to relax after some days of intense hikes in other regions. The pool was lovely and right outside our door. We watched surfers on the beach though the rough waters and rocky beach did not avail sun-soaking or swimming.

Beautiful Beachfront Condo! Just 30 Ft from sand
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.

Los Sueños Resort Colina Condominium
Super cute the apartment and pool is very close to the apartment! There is a gym also the pool pair!

OCEAN VIEWS-Beachfront Penthouse/pools/rooftop
This unit in Bahia Encantada is excellent, on the beach, clean and well-appointed. Just what the doctor ordered....if he ordered cold drinks at Clarita's (next door restaurant), a beach at your door step and the relaxing sound of surf. An excellent place. Pura Vida!

Tropical & Quiet Condo, with pool, Close to Beach
i didn't get to meet jhonathon while i was there because he was out of the country. The people he hired were very friendly and helpfull. including Edar who is the gatekeeper and Luis who i think makes sure things get done. the landscaping is very well done and the pool is warmed by the sun to a very comfortable temp. i liked the pictures on the website but seeing it was better. Jaco is a tourist town but if you want to eat like the natives i recommend Garabito and Rustico.

Sweet Beach Retreat
Simply the best! We could not have been more pleased with our stay. It was just as advertised and then some! We consider ourselves extremely lucky to have been able to stay in such an amazing condo in an amazing location! Jill was an amazing and attentive host! Would be honored to come back in the future!!!
