Casa Cacao
Perfect stay near Cahuita! Beautiful, modern house equipped with everything that you need. We could check in even tho we were there an hour early. Host was always responsive, helpful and really friendly

Wonderful Ocean View, Pool, A/C, 500m Beach
This was a gorgeous home! We enjoyed listening to the birds and monkeys each morning. We even got to see 2 green Macaws fly over! The view is breathtaking! Delicious coffee and sugar was provided. We had a mishap with some broken glass and Felipe quickly sent someone over to help clean it up so we didn’t get hurt! The driveway is very steep but made for a good workout to break up all of the relaxing! We had no issue walking to the beach. My only feedback is there are not enough towels provided considering there is a pool and beach. For 2 women staying 2 nights we were given only 2 bath towels and 2 hand towels, no wash cloths. So we had to repeatedly use the same towel after the pool, beach, and showers. Not a big deal but not ideal either. Otherwise this home was perfect and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun, local, beachy vibe in Costa Rica!!

Samanea House Deluxe, big pool, a/c, 10min from PV
Very nice place, close to everything. Peaceful and clean, exactly what we were looking for. Highly recommend

Modern and spacious stylish home. 100% WiFi
An excellent experience! The house is just as seen in the photos: beautiful, modern, very clean and well organized. Everything was in perfect condition and the care is noticeable in every detail. The host was very quick to respond to any questions, which made everything even easier. The area is very quiet and private, ideal for relaxing. I would definitely come back. Highly recommended!
