Waterfront holiday rentals in Central America

This is our second time at Nick's place and it was everything we remembered. You can walk out the back patio and in 100 feet, go right into the ocean, with great surfing right there. Short walk to Tamarindo for restaurants and shopping, but secluded enough for peace and quiet. Several small maintenance issues popped up during the 10 days, but Nick responded in 15 minutes each time and the problems were resolved in an hour or two. Great host, great location, and great communication. We'll definitely be back.

The place is super bonito! Price and quality go hand in hand! It's ideal for a couple or for a single person! Close to several places!!! Janileth was super nice and responsible with everything! He responded super fast to our questions! I recommend it 20/10✨

Great location! Walking distance to all the places in town and right by the ocean. We enjoyed our stay!

Jenny and Clemens’s place is truly magical and an ideal spot for first-timers visiting Lake Atitlán. We instantly fell in love with the stunning views and the peaceful atmosphere during our two-day stay. From the start, Jenny and Clemens were incredibly welcoming and responsive. They helped us arrange roundtrip shuttle service from Antigua and even organized a private lancha to reach their home, making everything so easy. Thanks to their great location, we could walk to nearby spots like Casa del Mundo, Isla Verde, and even take a cooking class in Santa Cruz. Getting around by public lanchas were also simple. Just flag one down at the dock, and the drivers know exactly where to drop you off on your return.

Rarely do I find an Airbnb where I feel instantly at home, find everything I need, and never want to leave, but that is exactly what this place is. The view is what drew me, but the home itself is nothing short of perfect. A beautiful balcony overlooking the lake, with breathtaking sunrises, windows that open and let in the morning light, the apartment is perfect. Kitchen is stocked with essentials for cooking, along with a few spices, French press, etc. Nothing more magical than your morning coffee with a volcano view. It is located up a small hill (which is pretty steep), but tuk-tuks can take you up if preferred. Felt very safe as a solo traveler, quiet, relaxing. Graciela, the housekeeper, is lovely and does an impeccable job. Apartment was spotless. There may be a few creatures that make an appearance, saw one scorpion, but it is normal for the area. Mosquito net around bed keeps you protected at night. All in all, I am so sad to leave, but STAY HERE. You won’t regret it.

Central location apartment with all mod cons included. Good security and lock box to take key 🔑 so that out of hours check-in/check-out was made easy. One thing, the automated address of the apartment didn't include the name of the apartment (Chatham Grove), so it was difficult to tell the taxi man where to go.

Daniel as person in charge, he is very responsive and kindness. The place is just like the description and more. The guys who welcome, are very professional providing clear intro of the place and advices for the surrounding. This is a Great deal!

Very good overall, nice place, just update the old pans.

I’ve never had a more attentive host. Abigail was an absolute treasure! She’s the sweetest and very proactive making sure we had everything we needed. The housekeepers would always take out the trash and restock amenities without asking. And the place is exactly as described in pictures. Home has beautiful beach aesthetic. Absolutely loved staying here would definitely recommend.

Such a perfect little spot for us on our way to San Jose. Loved the convenient location and ease of getting in and out. The house is super thoughtful and well designed with lots of light, nice kitchen and bath and a beautiful green space out back. Very peaceful at night and it felt very secure with the car behind a big gate. We will be back. Thank you! Recommended!

Special place for us. Romantic, cozy, beautiful, and a lot of fun. Awesome host with a great air b&b.

It was a great place to stay beautiful area and near everything. The recommendations Anya sent us for restaurants were really good and I had to recommend trying some of them.

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.

Amazing, amazing place, beautiful view, super helpful hosts, and ask about the boat rentals next door!

Our time at Sunset Rock was incredible! We will definitely be returning. Joanna was attentive and helpful. Roberto made sure the grounds were always clean. We loved being right on the beach. The infinity pool overlooking the ocean was our favorite space to spend our time. We can’t wait to come back for another trip.

We had a wonderful stay at the house. Vanessa was great to work with! Unfortunately we were only there three nights. Vanessa arranged a private chef for the day we arrived. It was my son’s 18th birthday and it was great to have a delicious meal prepared for us after a day traveling. She also handled ordering food delivery for us one night! The access/shuttle to the beach club was great and once again Vanessa took care of that for us as well. We spent the last day at Manuel Antonio National Park with a naturalist that was arranged for us and she was fantastic. The property had a wonderful view and felt very private at the top of the mountain. The kitchen had all that we needed and the pool was a great way to finish each day. If we return to this area we will definitely stay here again!

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 :)

Dear Lester and Kim, We wanted to express our sincere appreciation for the wonderful stay at your Airbnb in Columbus Heights, Ocho Rios, Jamaica. The accommodation exceeded our expectations, and we thoroughly enjoyed our time there. The location was fantastic, offering easy access to local attractions, the beach, and restaurants. We particularly appreciated the beautiful view. Everything was clean, well-maintained, and felt very welcoming. Thank you for being such a thoughtful and responsive host. I would highly recommend your Airbnb to anyone visiting Ocho Rios and hope to have the opportunity to stay there again in the future. Best regards, Tiffany and LaTasha

This place is fantastic, spotless, well equipped, secure, easy to access and a beautiful ocean view. The beach chairs/umbrella are a great bonus which we used to enjoy Playa Flamingo in comfort David is a generous, responsive host. Thank you for hosting us.

Very nice place to stay on Playa Blanca

Awe man…where do I start??! This was by far more than we expected! The hosts were amazing, which matched the condo! We were just in awe of the views, the well stocked kitchen, and all the little extras like the liners for the coffee pot and even the air fryer! Beautiful bathrooms, bedrooms, and OMG the balcony looking over the pools and ocean!! No doubt we will spread the word and already know where we’re staying the next time we’re in town!! Thank you Madeline and James for making this a dream come true for my family!! I don’t have one single complaint, and believe me, that’s not like me!!

Great experience for our first time in Costa Rica!! Can’t wait to go back!! The pictures don’t even do the condo justice. It’s amazing and so convenient to town. Our guide in town, Chris, was unbelievable and had so many great suggestions. Pura Vida, Costa Rica!

Beautiful condo just a short walk from playa flamingo. We had a great time!

“I had a fabulous stay! When I walked into the entrance I was impressed with the flowers (fresh cut flowers and live plants) that I was greeted with and a small chalkboard with a welcome message. All the amenities were considered! The view of the sunrise and sunset with a backdrop of the Caribbean sea and the sounds of the waves. I will refer Stefan to my friends and I will return to this spot again!!” - feedback from my mother who I booked for
