☀Beach Facing, large pool & guard in the ♥ of town

9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (30)
"First off, the pictures don't do justice to the interior decorations. The paint is not that garish in real life, the orange and green will not burn your eyes out, and the surfboards mounted on walls with high ceilings look great. The hosts left a little gift bag of coffee & wine to get started. I needed to go next the shop next door to pick up coffee filters & a corkscrew, but that was a minor detail. The location is perfect for dawn patrol surfing or simply walking on the beach at...

Villa Elysian Estrella Beachfront Suite

10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (5)
"My husband and I had a perfect 3 night stay. We were the only guests on the property (which has a total of 3 units), so we felt particularly lucky to have the pool and space to ourselves. Plenty of great spots within walking distance, but we spent most of our time lounging by the pool-- which is even better than the photos suggest. Communication was easy, bed was comfortable, and shower was excellent. Thank you for a wonderful stay!"

Picturesque Beachfront Condo w - Pool

10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (65)
"Pictures are very accurate, the property is mere steps to the beach. Potrero is a great, quieter beach town that has some great food nearby. Excellent coffee, smoothie bowls, and massages are less than 10 minutes walk away. Short drive to Tamarindo if you want more of a party scene or more surfable beaches. Hosts were great and responsive to messages."

The ONLY Beachfront Studio Apartment with dipping pool on Playa Ocotal.

9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (60)
"My wife and I couldn’t have been happier with our stay here. The hosts are kind and friendly and made several excellent recommendations for things to do in Ocotal and even helped us map out a route to our next destination. The apartment and property were clean and comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed to make some meals. We spent our evenings in the dipping pool. The beach is about 50 feet from the entrance to the apartment. The bay is beautiful and we saw dolphins near the shore...

Dog-Friendly & Convenient Studio with Shared Pool, Lanai, Water Views

8.4 out of 10, Very Good, (9)
"Positives are, location, neighborhood, secure, and location as pictured. Beach Coffee shops and restaurants were light walks thru safe neighbor hoods. Directions to the property should not only include pictures but distances between pictures in case you can’t recognize, as I struggled with because I was arriving in the dark. Also, a bath towel should not feel like a shammy."

Escape to Paradise! Las Brisas Playa Hermosa, 3 bdrm 2 bath with Pool View!

10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (1)
"We really liked the location! We were overlooking the pool which was warm and beautiful. Huge outdoor deck with table and comfy seating (there was also a grill, but we didn't use it). It was a very short walk to the beach. There are a couple of restaurants within walking distance and a supermarket was a couple minutes away via car (there was a closer one but we didn't go to that one). The kitchen was large and fully stocked, i think we were the first people to use the oven/stove and toaster....

"The Host Ben is very responsive and kind. I wanted to experience living among the Ticos and we loved it. This place is unique and cozy for the 4 of us girls. There are some minor upgrades needed but we are so easygoing that it was not a bother. We survived a huge thunderstorm and no power for just a couple hours. The property has 2 cats. Also each bedroom has air conditioning and we enjoyed Netflix in the evening. This area is definitely a surf town and several restaurants walking distance....
