House holiday rentals in Santa María

Casa Loro Verde is a very special place! My family and I had a blast and feel very fortunate to have had 1 whole week in this magical place. Excellent setting for relaxing and soaking up nature…and day tripping to so many wonderful places (Manuel Antonio, Dominical and Uvita to name a few). Melissa fb Kendry were super responsive and easy to communicate with. And Augstin met us in Portalon and guided to the house, oriented us to all the amenities and shared some recommendations for places to eat and activities to do. We can’t say enough. We had a vacation that we will remember for years to come!

We had an unforgettable stay at Gretel's place. We saw 3 types of monkeys, macaws, tucans and squirrels and iguanas, all while hanging out at the pool or on the terrace. Communication was great, Gretel checked in several times to see if everything was good. The house offers everything you could need - we cooked at the property several times and were able to use a fully stocked kitchen. Our kids especially enjoyed the pool which is very toddler friendly. The location can't be beat - you're close to both Quepos and Manuel Antonio with endless activities, restaurants etc. We really felt like we were immersed in nature and could not have wished for a better place to spend our vacation in Costa Rica.

After a fiasco with our original Airbnb, I messaged Nicholas and Gelena to see if we could check in as soon as possible. They messaged back within just a couple of minutes and said we could check in within the hour. The house was beautiful. We saw all kinds of birds from the pool; my favorite was the visits by the parrots every evening around 5pm. The location was perfect. 30 minutes to Quepos and 30 minutes to Uvita. The closest beach, playa Matapalo, has sloths in the trees every morning. We got some of the best pictures and videos there! If we ever come back to Costa Rica, this house would be our top choice!! If you’re thinking about booking, do it!! Just make sure you have a rental car with 4wd as you’ll need it to get up to the house.

The monkey house lived up to its name. We saw monkeys on 3 out of the 5 days we were at the house. Sam did a great job of communicating and keeping us in the loop. The home is close to the National Park and local beaches. The Mercadito nearby was also a great place to grab a snack and indulge with the locals. We will definitely be back. Pura Vida!

We had a group of 5 stay at this Airbnb and we enjoyed our stay. The space was large and was private. We felt very safe at this accommodation. The host and concierge had great communication. They were very fast at responding, very informative, and provided many helpful recommendations. Unfortunately we went during rainy season so when there was a lot of rain the power went out in the neighbourhood for a couple hours. We understood this was the nature of rainy season and we were provided many flashlights and some board games. The space was also very clean, had everything we might've needed. The air condition in the rooms was great as well. Would definitely recommend staying here.

We had an incredible stay! Fer was so helpful, kind, and responsive, and recommended things like the local market the day we arrived. As we were checking out, he came over to show us a sloth moving around one of the trees on the property! The location was excellent and very close to Manuel Antonio, the beaches, and wildlife. We got to see scarlet macaws, parakeets, toucans, and lots of other animals right from the porch. Highly recommend this place!!

It was a beautiful home to stay at for the weekend with my family. They were very responsive over message, and they were kind and accommodating during our stay.

Don’t believe the 2-star review!!! It couldn't be further from our experience. Katrin is truly the perfect Airbnb host: responsive, warm, and incredibly helpful. She went above and beyond to make my boyfriend’s birthday unforgettable. When we arrived, the house was beautifully decorated — something she did all on her own initiative and she helped me arrange a delicious cake and made the perfect dinner reservation for us at Mangata. The house itself is stunning: peaceful, surrounded by nature, and just a short walk from the beach. If you're looking for a relaxing, comfortable, and thoughtfully managed place to stay, look no further. Katrin, you're the best and we’ll absolutely be back! With love

This airbnb mountain home exceeded all expectations with its breathtaking views and cozy, beautiful interior. We all had a relaxing time...the fireplace and fantastic jacuzzi made for a truly unforgettable stay. On top of that, Maria Laura was incredibly responsive, kind, and welcoming, even providing us with coffee and delicious homemade tortillas! 10/10 we hope to be back soon!

Exelente lugar, todo muy limpio y ordenado, súper amables, muy recomendado

Todo estuvo increíble el lugar es hermoso super aseado y todo olía delicioso

Wir waren ein paar Tage bei Carlos in der Unterkunft und haben den Ausblick und das Ambiente sehr genossen. Wir haben uns sogar zu dem privaten Wasserfall getraut, der wirklich sehr schön ist. Carlos hat uns viele Tipps und Infos gegeben und war super freundlich. Insgesamt hat uns der Aufenthalt gut gefallen. Man darf nicht vergessen, dass es ein offenes Haus ist, mitten in der Natur, sodass der Wohnbereich eine hohe Luftfeuchtigkeit hat (zumindest in der Regenzeit).

My family and I enjoyed the place very much! It is insanely beautiful, house decor is so unique and very comfortable and friendly people! The only one thing I would say is that in the House photos looks like there’s rooms outside however those are extra cabins in the same property(reserved separately) This home is only 3 Bedrooms, each bedroom has a bathroom which is so nice!

Stunning location. Comfortable home has everything you need. we loved it!

Teya siempre estuvo muy atenta, tanto ella como Helena nos hicieron sentir muy cómodos y bienvenidos. Helena me pareció una persona muy amable y se tomó el tiempo de explicar todo, contestar rápido y siempre estuvo atenta. La casa tiene un toma de 220v afuera lo cual es conveniente para autos eléctricos. En fin, todo muy bien 👌🏽

A beautiful cabin in a secluded area surrounded by nature. The cabin can get really hot, but with the two fans we were able to get a good nights rest. The views were stunning and the cabin was really clean!

This isn’t just an Airbnb—it’s an experience clearly crafted by artistic souls who care deeply about beauty, comfort, and good energy. Every corner of the home radiates creativity and warmth, like a love letter to Costa Rica itself. The vibe is unforgettable—tropical, soulful, and effortlessly cool. The space is beautifully stocked with everything we needed and more. From cozy linens to charming little details, you can feel the thoughtful touch everywhere. We felt safe, relaxed, and completely at home. And the garage? A total bonus, especially for peace of mind. Thank you for sharing this special slice of Pura Vida. We’re leaving inspired, grateful, and already dreaming of our return.

100% volveríamos! El hot tub estuvo perfecto, la cama deliciosa. Muy cerca está el Centro Biológico Fudebiol, vale la pena aprovechar a conocer. Muy bonito todo y la cocina súper bien equipada con todo lo que uno pueda necesitar :)

No complaints at all about this place! It was a hidden gem and well worth the price. The location was good for us - quiet, in a smaller neighborhood, a very peaceful retreat. It was off the beaten path, so would not be for people who want to see or hear the ocean. However, it was SUPER clean, the beds were comfy, A/C worked great, the parking was easy and secure. The gardens were immaculate and offered a jungle feel which we all loved. It is a 3-minute drive from MaxiPali for groceries, etc. and a few more minutes to Quepos.

Excelente lugar muy cómodo amplio y precioso, Eva es muy amable y nos ayudó con nuestras dudas

Truly a stunning home in a very quiet, upscale cul-de-sac community. Views were breathtaking, and the home well-equipped for lazy days without big agendas. Dominical is cute and inviting, with plenty to eat and a solid infrastructure for booking adventures of multiple varieties. Sensitive travelers might want to be advised that power and water outages are part of the realities of living in such a gorgeous, remote location. Mattresses are quite firm, with the loft bed probably best suited to a child or other floor-friendly individual. Kitchen was not particularly well-appointed, so bring oil/butter and perhaps even a favorite chef's knife if you plan to cook in. Local farmer's markets do make this an appealing option, although local restaurants were generally quite decent, even coming from NYC. Above all, this is a truly impressive holiday experience, mainly for the incredible views from all floors and the abundance of wildlife right in your own back-yard. Highly recommended.

Fui muy acogedora y especialmente un lugar para descansar nos sentimos como en casa y todo estaba súper ordenado y pensado en el más mínimo detalle, la cocina súper equipada y la piscina perfecta

We loved this place! Close to anything you’ll want to do in Quepos and Manuel Antonio, but still private. You have the whole house to yourself and a private gate. Felt very safe and private! Only noise was from nature (birds and other animals scurrying on the roof), and things falling out of the trees hit the roof occasionally. Kitchen was fully stocked with plates, bowls, utensils, etc. Beds were comfy and bathroom was clean. Overall this place is great and we definitely recommend!

Nos hospedamos en la casa de Doug por una noche 4 familias, con 4 niños, la zona es de las más lindas de Costa Rica, tiene una vista espectacular y si te gusta el gusta el clima frío es el lugar ideal para unas vacaciones fuera de la ciudad pero bastante cerca. La cabaña super acogedora, equipada con todo lo que necesitábamos para las necesidades de todas las familias, Doug super atento desde el primer momento. La pasamos realmente bien - la recomendaríamos y regresaremos sin duda. Nos encantó!
