Smoking-friendly holiday rentals in Nicoya Peninsula

From the moment we booked Vanessa was very responsive & knowledgeable. She was able to provide all the insight we needed to make our trip a memorable one. She went out of her way to make sure she was there when we checked in which was really nice & caring. She checked in with us via chat during our stay to make sure everything was going smooth. The view & villa were spectacular and all we needed as a couple to be able to rest & relax. If your a big beach person def recommend checking out Playa Cochal, a short commute from the villa. Had a wonderful stay!! Thanks Vanessa.

Very spacious, clean and cozy apartment. Jason had a very helpful pdf to guide you to the Location as well as through the Check-in which helped me find it without a Navigation System. Jason replied very quickly and Kind. I had a wonderful time there and can highly recommend.

Everything at Jeff's was more than I expected. I am so grateful and thankful to him for sharing his Oasis with us, everything was out of this world. We spent our mornings at the beach enjoying the sunrise, followed by playing with Carver, and our afternoons in the beautiful pool. Our space was completely separate from Jeff's house, had a full kitchen, bathroom, AC and was clean. The location is walkable to the beach and restaurants, everything you need is close by. Jeff, and Carver, are so friendly and personable, his local knowledge was invaluable. He gave us tips on private beaches, delicious restaurants and different ways for us to enjoy everything Los Pargos has to offer. He really made our stay there so special and we will be visiting him again the next time we're in Costa Rica. Jeff truly cares about the space and wants his guests to experience Pura Vida, and it shows. Thank you, thank you, thank you Jeff, and Carver, for everything!!

Yesenia and her son are wonderful hosts. We were warmly greeted by her son upon arrival and immediately felt welcome. The accommodation corresponded exactly to the photos and the description – everything was very clean and well maintained. For a short stay, everything necessary was available. The location is a bit outside the center, but pleasantly quiet. Everything was easily accessible with your own car. We felt very comfortable and can definitely recommend the accommodation.

Great recommendation! Ricardo is very accommodating and helpful. The place is very cute and you have everything you need, like a small beach house. The pool, balcony, peace and seating outside complete everything:) You need 5 minutes to get to the beach by car, which you can park right in front of the door. So perfect away from the place in the countryside, but still close to everything!!

A very quiet place, the house is very comfortable and super clean. I would definitely go there again.

We had a wonderful time at Scott and Natalia’s place in beautiful Santa Teresa! We stayed at 3 places in Costa Rica, and this was by far our favorite. The location was absolutely perfect and walking distance to everything, including the beach. It was very well maintained and they even suggested an amazing excursion. We rented ATVs and went to Montezuma and a ton of small towns on our own, with their suggestion. It was our favorite day of the trip! Lots of monkey and wildlife by the pool, and beautiful beach across the road. Do not hesitate to book this 100000/10 Airbnb. Great price too! Thanks again Scott and Natalia! We will be back with friends we hope.

I’d definitely stay here again! It’s super walkable to get into town, and Irina was an amazing host! Our shower head broke, but she replaced it the next day. Then, we got locked out (always remember to keep the keys before you close the front door!). But Irina had a backup plan that we could use to get back in that night. She was so friendly and helpful, and the stay was cozy and had everything we needed, with a great location too! A couple of my friends stayed at Lost Boys and got to use their pool and hangout spot, so it was a great time!

Our stay was fantastic, and I highly recommend this place. The house is tucked away in the jungle, surrounded by trees, palms, lush vegetation, and various animals. You can relax inside with air conditioning while enjoying the view through the large windows, or unwind on the spacious terrace and take in the natural surroundings. The interior was exactly as described - clean, well-maintained, and fully equipped with everything listed. The neighborhood is peaceful and quiet. Communication was excellent: quick responses, clear instructions, and even help guiding us to the house, which isn’t the easiest to find. There’s a beach nearby, and even the heart of the tourist area is within easy reach. You’ll definitely need a real 4x4 vehicle, as reaching the property requires crossing a stream several times - which can become more challenging during the rainy season. We would definitely choose this place again if we return to Costa Rica.

Excellent place, beautiful views and a beautiful beach. We feel at home, the place is very quiet, perfect for a getaway from the daily routine. Recommended

Great location, a short walk from the beach. Spacious bedrooms and living area. Maud is a very considerate and accommodating host.

This Airbnb is the perfect place to disconnect. The area is super quiet—ideal for relaxing and recharging. From the moment we arrived, the check-in process was smooth and hassle-free. Rodrigo was an amazing host—always attentive, quick to respond, and thoughtful about every detail. You can tell he genuinely cares about making the stay great. If you’re looking for a peaceful getaway away from the noise, this is the spot. Highly recommended!

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.

Awesome facility! It was exactly as described. Very quiet. very private, and very safe. The pool is definitely what stood out the most. It was very relaxing. Norwin thought of everything! He was very helpful. We saw a lot of hummingbirds. The bedroom was ample size with plenty of storage. We enjoyed our stay there immensely and look forward to returning.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay! The house exceeded our expectations in terms of seclusion and privacy—it felt like a true retreat in the heart of the jungle. The peaceful atmosphere and the natural surroundings made for a truly serene experience. The location is perfect, with plenty of restaurants and beaches just a short drive away. We spent hours on the porch, soaking in the sights and sounds of nature. A highlight was definitely watching the howler monkeys play in the trees right from the porch—what a magical experience! One small note: while the listing mentions a washer and dryer in the unit, they are not available. However, the host is happy to offer a laundry service by picking up and washing your clothes. Hensell was incredibly helpful and always quick to respond, ensuring our stay was as smooth as possible.

We had a lovely stay at the Colorado Guesthouse. Plenty of room for our family of 4 to spread out a little. The covered deck was spectacular to sit and watch the birds and the hot tub was such a lovely addition. Having access to a washer and dryer was so helpful. The guesthouse is in a great location close to good restaurants, coffee and local attractions. Highly recommend!

Great stay appropriate his helpful instructions got a cheap shuttle to his place quick and fast clean stay great showers hot tub area is nice close to all the bars walking distance close to beach I'll stay again thank you

Everything was fine, only the little detail that bothered us in terms of health, that smoking is allowed in the facilities and the smell is quite uncomfortable and unpleasant both in the pool and in the apartment. However, Priscila was attentive to give us answers at all times.

"A Breathtaking Stay at Flamingo Towers – Worth Every Penny!" My recent stay at Flamingo Towers in Guanacaste, Costa Rica, was nothing short of spectacular. The **breathtaking views** alone make this destination stand out—waking up to the sight of the Pacific Ocean stretching endlessly before me was an experience I’ll never forget. Beyond the natural beauty of Costa Rica, what truly elevated my stay was the "convenience and security" of this location. The property was well-maintained, with easy access to everything I needed, and I always felt completely safe. Britt, the host, was exceptional—his communication was seamless from start to finish, and his recommendations were top-notch. Whether it was dining, excursions, or local tips, he ensured that I experienced the best of what this paradise has to offer. Yes, the cost was higher due to peak season, but honestly, the view alone made it worth every penny!

Stay here. You will not regret it.

Great location and Stephanie was very helpful. Thanks for a great stay!

This house was stocked with all the amenities and had been thoughtfully curated and was perfect for our family. We will be back! Thank you!

We passed through Tamerindo (awesome area) on our 1st trip to Costa Rica as a family of 5 (kids - 8, 13, 19) and Tushar's place was perfect for our day visit! It was safe, cozy and zen...actually better than the pics! Wish we had more time -- would love to return!

The place was very private and safe, all accommodations as described. Very close to the city center. If I had to nitpick, the mattress was extremely hard as well as the pillows. Everything else was amazing, Cristian is very responsive and proactive.
