Without a doubt, this is our favorite beach and hotel when our goal is to get away from screens and a crazy city life! The boys explored the tide pools for hours and saw so many cool tropical fish and sea life! #LifeAtExpedia #vacationwithkids #exploringthenaturalworld

"This home and location is a true gem on the beaches of Potrero - the upstairs with 4 lovely rooms each with a private bath was perfect for the adults in our group. The lower level was just the right set up for the 6 younger people in our group (ages 17-22). The pool was awesome for when we needed some shade or time away from the ocean. We walked the beach every day loved getting to the restaurants in town that way. Arturo and the rest of the team at the house were so great and available to...

"The location of this property is what makes this property so desirable. It is 20 steps from a wonderful grocery store and about 100 steps from two amazing coffee shops. And the beach is about a 5 - 7 min walk. Air condition worked very well. We drank the tap water and no one got sick. Some places in Costa Rica don't allow you to flush toilet paper but this property said we could and we did without any issues. I highly recommend this property. "

"We booked this property prior to knowing it would be getting a renovation and the updates to the property were absolutely stunning. Our group of 8 people, 4 adults and 4 kids had so much space to spread out in. The pool was great and the outdoor patio was equally wonderful. I would absolutely stay here again."

"Our group of 4 adults and 4 teens had a wonderful time at Casa Frisons! The beautiful house has breathtaking views, plenty of room for everyone, great location, and we all felt very safe. Bilitis really goes above and beyond as a host. She set up our airport transfers, golf carts, met us at our arrival as well as departure of the home, and was easy to get a hold of if we needed anything during our stay. Having Benjamin at the front of the gated property was also such a great addition! We...

"Las Velas Blancas is an amazing gem nestled in Playa Grande! Our group had never been to this part of Costa Rica and the accommodations and location suited us perfectly. The cabanas are close to the surf and the waves were perfect for both beginners and advanced surfers in our group alike. The property manager Sher was an excellent communicator both before and during our stay. We chose to have two meals each day prepared by her recommended chef and they were fabulous for our group of 17. We also...

"We had a wonderful stay at Villa Corina in Potrero! Our group consisted of 12 people - a family of 4 and a family of 8. The villa is beautiful with such a unique design and had plenty of space for all of us. We loved the en suite bedrooms, pool, proximity to the beach, and the boogie boards, kayaks, paddle boards, umbrellas, and beach chairs available for us to use at Playa Potrero. We even saw howler monkeys walking back from the beach after sunset! We found Portrero to be a good location for...

"Perfect spot to see the beautiful beaches Tons of room to spread out and enjoy the property Lots of things to do having your own pool and roof spa made our visit even better!"

"Beautiful residence. Hacienda layout with open setting to kitchen and rooms. Staff great. Lexie responsive to messages The road to it is a classic CR poor surface, but not far off main road. Need to fix washer lid as difficult to start wash. About a 5-10 minute walk to south end of main area of Tamarindo. Just a couple minute walk down lane to beach."

"We had a great stay at Casa Roberta. Location was excellent, able to walk into town and a short drive to many beautiful beaches. The shaded pool in the afternoon sun was awesome. Lis was excellent in making sure we were comfortable and quickly took care of any needs. Thank you - we will be back!"

"We loved the house and the help we got from our host when needed. Everything was clean and new. We loved the pool and the house was a great place to stay near some of the better restaurants and the fruit stand in town.My only complaint is that when I booked this it was listed as a “5 minute walk to the beach” which simply isn’t accurate. It’s more of a 10-15 minute walk on the busy Main Street and just not a great walk in general."

"12 of us stayed for 7 days, more than enough room for everyone, right on the beach. If you don’t want to swim or sit on the beach, you have a lovely pool and Jacuzzi to sit in. Watch the sunset every evening. Had a chef come in two nights to cook for us that was wonderful. Tony, our concierge took care of everything for us planned all our trips and it was amazing. We were close to bars restaurant stores and shops. Would highly recommend this place for anyone they were 12 of us. We were all...

"Upon entry to the property we were welcomed by upscale scents and a wonderful staff that showed us the property and made sure to answer any questions and give us recommendations.The house and grounds are gorgeous and everything is well thought out and planned. Rooms were spacious and the AC was nice and cold.We opted to have Carla make our breakfast daily and it was so worth it. She was amazing!Only complaint was the sauna and cold plunge weren’t operational but that wasn’t a deal breaker. Kids...

"We were a group of 4 couples in our sixties and seventies. We absolutely loved our stay of 10 days. The house is well set up for multiple couples. The pool is gorgeous. The view from the hilltop where the house is situated is absolutely stunning. The kitchen is very well stocked with utensils, dishes and tools, etc. Any requests or questions we had were responded to immediately by Adrianna and by Hillary who was at the house with us every day between 8 and 4. Both were incredible. The...

"This for our family of 5 really well. We enjoyed the pool a lot!"

"We had a wonderful experience with The Palms. Michael was quick to respond whenever I had a question, and the Welcome Guide that he shared after we booked was extremely helpful. When we arrived, the staff at The Palms welcomed us, gave a brief introduction to the property, answered questions and made us feel welcome. We had ordered some groceries through the concierge ahead of our visit and everything was there for us when we arrived. The unit and the property were both better than the pictures...

"Four of my friends and I stayed here for 4 nights. It was incredible! Exceeded our expectations. So clean and comfortable. The layout of the house is excellent with private bathrooms and a large living space. The pool and patio are perfect for relaxing. Very secure with a fence and gate as well as a guard at the entrance of the neighborhood. We would absolutely stay here again. "

"My family of six stayed for a week in February. Because of the outdoor space, there was plenty of room for our four teenagers to spread out. My husband and I loved opening the shades in the morning to overlook the patio/pool area. We enjoyed all of the natural light throughout the back of the house and the master bedroom! All of the staff associated with the property were very responsive. We did have several minor issues that needed tending to and each time help was sent within hours. ...

"Enjoy a great place to relax near the beaches of Langosta and Tamarindo! Charming home with open airy dining inside and out. Lovely pool, barbeque and covered porch nestled within a beautiful garden area. Comfortable bedrooms and living room areas top it all off. "

"We spent all of March 2025 in the treehouse. Our host Ben is a great host. Very responsive, checked in on us routinely and was great at making transportation arrangements for us to go on excursions outside the are. The house was clean when we arrived and the bed was very comfortable. The air in the bedroom worked well and allowed comfortable sleep during very warm days. If you are seeking luxury, the treehouse is not for you. It is a bit primitive and minimalistic. But if you want quiet...

"Loved our stay and would definitely stay there again! The room was clean, spacious and had a great view. Bed was comfortable, I slept like a baby. The breakfast was absolutely delicious. They have a cat super visor named Ruben but he just sleeps all day lol. The rest of the staff is super friendly and made sure we had a great stay. Rocio and brian were the absolute best. "

"We stayed in a Tropicana room across the street from the main hotel in an all adult area with its own pool and bar. The breakfast buffet was wonderful and the staff was very polite and helpful. We had massages on two separate occasions and were very pleased. Watching the sunset from the restaurant at the main hotel was spectacular."

"Beautiful property, huge pool, variety of restaurants. Slightly isolated from any towns (half hour drive to Tamarindo and they have a shuttle). Walked to a nice beach restaurant, Lola’s. Could advertise that the spa has a sauna, steam room and small pool. Spa prices were high for Central America but service was good. Really enjoyed the Tamarine Restaurant. Room was very comfortable with a large bathtub. Pool is huge. Nice property, about an hour and a half from Liberia airport. Found a less expensive van to and from Liberia airport than what the Marriott offered. "
