Bohemian Jungle Oasis
The home and grounds are beautiful. So many beautiful plants and the neighbors is quiet which allows you hear all the wildlife. We saw howler monkeys, squirrels, lizards and an armadillo! We loved every second of our stay. There was great communication before and during our stay. We would definitely stay here again!

Villa Laia - Santa Teresa
I would highly recommend Alan and his Villa. From the start he was very responsive and helpful for accommodations. I constantly visit Santa Teresa and this was my favorite stay so far. The villa was clean, private, the pool was beautiful and Tomas,our concierge, did a great job checking us in, providing recommendations and making us feel like home. Thank you Alan and Tomas for this wonderful weekend! 10/10

Stunning Ocean Villa - Infinity Pool & King Bed
We really enjoyed our stay here. The guest houses are nicely laid out, so that each has a great view and nice pool access. Kitchens are well stocked and nicely planned - we cooked a lot and it was easy to use. The location on the hill gives you a very nice panorama of the ocean between Cabo Blanco and Playa Montezuma. It is close to a great restaurant/brewery, and a trail that goes into the Montezuma Waterfall near the top ($5 US to hike it and it was worth the trip). Getting to town or the beach requires driving or walking a pretty steep, busy road. There are lots of great restaurants and beaches around Montezuma.

Al fresco Oasis in the heart of Guanacaste
If you want peaceful and remote, this is the place for you! We stayed for 2 nights and had a wonderful, relaxing time. Giselle’s place was less than 5 min from Playa Coco, which was the best beach in the area (we didn’t surf but seemed like everyone that did also went there). There are not a ton of restaurants in the area, but as it’s easy to cook in the full kitchen and enjoy the beautiful views from the Airbnb, I’d recommend bringing your own groceries, striking up a fire and settling in. Watched the birds come in every morning from bed!

Ocean View House wit Private Pool & Jacuzzi
The view of this house was breathtaking. We enjoyed visiting the town of Tamarindo & seeing the sunset. If you are looking for authentic Costa Rican food make sure to visit the Sodas (what all their small restaurants are called). We enjoyed every single one of them & are very reasonably priced. We visited playa Conchal which was my favorite beach & not far but also did the Leona waterfall hike and zip lining which was so much fun & beautiful. After our activities we were able to come home to our fresh and clean airbnb and dip in the pool then end the night with Netflix or a TV series. We didn’t have the swing which would’ve been a nice photo prop, but that’s alright. We hope to come back again but with our family or friends, we love Costa Rica so much. My husband really bonded with John the security & would enjoy their night talks. We loved how he greeted us with a smile. We will miss him. Gracias amigo y saludos. Thank you Jaime for being so kind and responsive throughout our stay.

Modern Ocean View Villa North Santa-Walk To Surf
Absolutely loved our stay at this stunning Airbnb! The view is simply breathtaking, and we found ourselves mesmerized by it every day. The kitchen is well-equipped, making it easy to prepare meals, and the bedrooms are comfortable and inviting. Two of the bedrooms are located outside the main house, which was not a problem for us due to the lovely weather. However, it might be a consideration if you're visiting during rainy days. Overall, we had an amazing experience and can't wait to return! Highly recommend this gem!

Casa Niri: Villa w Chef, Ocean View, 5min to Beach
We really enjoyed our stay at Casa Niri. The cliff-side location with ocean views was beautiful. The infinity saltwater pool is impressive and has great views of the Pacific. The property is well-designed with nice amenities throughout. Daily breakfast was tasty and the staff was helpful. Good location about 5 minutes from Sámara Beach. This place provides a relaxing setting to unwind. Would definitely recommend!

Maison et sa piscine privée Santa Teresa de Cobano
We had a great stay, the villa has amazing views over Santa Teresa and the hosts were lovely. You will need a 4x4 to stay here as the road is quite steep and rocky, but well worth the drive

Lux 2BR Villa w/Private Pool & Beach Club
Beautiful place, super modern, comfortable, even more beautiful than the photos. I wish I had more time to enjoy it more.

Luxury Ocean View Villa
This place is truly magical. Elizabeth went above and beyond for everything! From setting up at home chefs, to answering all my questions, to wonderful recommendations for dinner our last night. The house and property is magical. It’s the first vacation that I truly disconnected, and it was because of the amazing property! If you are thinking of booking this property, do it! I also wanted to just say Sandra and David (property caretakers) were so kind, the dinner they made was wonderful! David even played the guitar for us! I would also recommend Chef Nelson, his food was next level! Thank you Elizabeth- we will be back!

Villa St Barth - Tamarindo, Costa Rica
It was our second stay at Villa St. Barth, and we hope it will not be the last one. We enjoy this privacy oasis very close to the touristy areas of the Tamarindo Coast. The property is secluded; you neither see nor feel any neighbours, yet it is just a few hundred meters away from a very nice fish restaurant. The house is squeaky clean and very comfortable to live in. The property's focal point is a pool suitable for lap swimming. We spend hours in the pool daily, looking for a busy bird life and occasional squirrels or monkeys.

Villa Roger Arenal
If you’re visiting La Fortuna, and this place is available, book it before someone else does. Everything about the experience was top notch, even better than advertised. Beautiful views, wildlife, and the hosts were responsive and welcoming. I would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Villa Kaleo-Ocean View Luxury Villa PRIME LOCATION
Yonatan’s home and hospitality is the best experience I have ever had on AirBnb—the house is stunning, Yonatan’s communication was beyond excellent. He set up cabs for us, gave amazing restaurant recommendations, had a private link to set up excursions with Local Bird, a great delivery service to get groceries (SippDelivery) and had beer and wine and treats from the AMAZING local bakery waiting for us upon arrival. The beds are soooo comfortable and laundered to perfection by the housekeeper, Deyling, who comes every day. We brought my parents as a gift and it was a gift to us all that we chose Villa Kaleo. The pool is great, the view is gorgeous. We saw white face monkeys, iguanas, heard howler monkeys—all around the house. Highly recommend horseback riding with Oscar as well. GO!

Best Location in Santa Teresa! AC, Wi-Fi, Pool
We had such an amazing time celebrating a milestone birthday. Everything was absolutely perfect. The property is stunning. The rooms were comfortable and immaculate. This was the perfect space to spend a week connecting with friends. We did not want to leave and will definitely be back. I would highly recommend this property if you want a peaceful space with beautiful surroundings but still close enough to everything Santa Teresa has to offer.

Casa Palmas-Unique 3Bdr Beachfront Villa with pool
We had an incredible stay at this beautiful home in Tamarindo! It was perfect for our two families (7 people total, including 3 kids ages 5–8). The house was spacious, well-stocked, and felt very safe and comfortable for both adults and children. The location couldn’t have been better—just steps from the beach and with a fantastic pool that we used every day. The host was outstanding, providing great local recommendations and even helping us arrange airport shuttles and excursions. Everything was seamless from start to finish. We can’t wait to come back!

Villa Melody- Center of Santa Teresa beach
Milena was a great host. Responsive and helpful. The place, house, and rooms were beautiful, same as in the pictures. The location is great.

Seataya Ocean - 3 Beds Luxury Villa with Pool
This place is over-the-top awesome. Soaring ocean views, but the center of town is just down the hill. The two bedrooms upstairs had epic views and super comfortable king beds, and the third bedroom downstairs was perfect for the kids. Eti, the host, was super responsive and helped us book all kinds of adventures throughout our stay. There was daily cleaning and laundry from friendly staff. It's basically your own private luxury hotel in one of the world's perfect surf towns.

Nekaui Beachfront Villa - Experience Nature
From beginning to end the stay was spectacular. Glori, Rosa and Cheppe were great helping us with everything and staying on the beach in a beautiful home was wonderful. Best place Ive stayed with greatest concierge and service.

Jungle Oasis w/ Pool - walk to beach – Sea Monkey
Pricilla and Pia were absolutely amazing hosts! From the moment we arrived, it felt like we had an extended family in Costa Rica. They were always just a message away—whether it was for a quick question or an unexpected emergency (our little daughter spiked a fever and needed to see a doctor), they were there with immediate support, kindness, and guidance. Their recommendations for things to do, places to eat, and local services were all top-notch and made our trip even more special. Thanks to them, we felt safe, informed, and incredibly well taken care of. My family—including our three young kids—had the time of our lives at the Seamonkey. We left with unforgettable memories and full hearts. Highly recommend this incredible stay to anyone visiting the area!

Casa Mirame - Brand New Beautiful Ocean View Villa
Our friends rented this house a year ago and loved it so much that we decided to book it for our honeymoon, and we are happy we did. The Casa Mirame concierge team made everything flawless - from restaurant recommendations and setting up excursions, to even booking our 4x4 rental at the Cobano Airport. You need 4x4. The road is steep and partially unpaved. However, the drive is more than worth it. The home is spotless, includes daily maid service, looks better than the photos, and the views are magical. The place is totally private, and the pool is AMAZING. We would watch birds and listen to monkeys and the waves in the distance while the sun set.

Chic Villa Escape in Central Santa Teresa
We loved our stay at this seaside Airbnb in Costa Rica! The room was clean, comfortable, and just steps from a beautiful, quiet beach. We enjoyed relaxing on the patio and share kitchen. The hosts were friendly and helpful, even allowing us an early check-in, making our trip easy and memorable. Highly recommend for a peaceful beach getaway!

Amazing beach house on peaceful Bahía Bellena
Look no further for your next beach getaway! This vacation rental is an absolute dream, exceeding every expectation for a perfect seaside escape. From the moment you step inside, you're enveloped in a feeling of pure comfort and relaxation. Unforgettable Comfort and Charm The house is incredibly roomy, offering ample space for everyone to spread out and unwind without ever feeling cramped. Yet, despite its generous size, it retains an undeniably cozy atmosphere. Imagine sinking into plush sofas after a day in the sun, surrounded by tasteful decor that whispers "beach vacation." It's the kind of place where you instantly feel at home. Impeccable Cleanliness and Thoughtful Amenities Every corner of this house sparkles with cleanliness. It's clear the owner Jeannette takes immense pride in maintaining a pristine environment, which allows you to truly relax from the moment you arrive.

Luxurious Smart Villa with Indoor Pool 1
La villa es hermosa, cómoda y privada. Jefrey es un excelente anfitrión, es amable y accesible. Nuestra estadía fue en época lluviosa por lo que la calle estaba en muy mal estado, tomarlo en cuenta si vas con un auto tipo sedán, y la villa está un poquito alejada del pueblito donde se pueden comprar comestibles. Dejando esto de lado, es un lugar que vale totalmente la pena visitar.

Lake view Cattle Ranch Villa
First and foremost, the view was absolutely incredible. We enjoyed eating breakfast on the porch or reading from the small pool with the scenery of this villa. Everything was exactly as described and was very clean. Cristina, the co-host, was responsive to all our messages/questions/concerns and was even able to provide room service. There were also horses out and about in the pastures behind the villa! The only downside to this place was the location. The roads are unpaved and hard to navigate, especially in the rain or dark. The location is pretty remote and far from any big towns, so be prepared to drive, even for groceries. The listing mentioned that you would need a 4x4, so be sure you have one, you’ll definitely need it. Otherwise, I have nothing bad to say! Overall, this place was great and we loved it. The hosts were very friendly and their property was extremely welcoming!
