About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire condo to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

2 Br/1 Ba, 2 Bikes-Fish Poles-Snorkel Gear-Private Lounges, AC/Fans, BBQ, DVD Wi

This is a 2nd floor balcony condo located in Cocomarindo 1/2 mile from downtown Coco on the road to Ocotal with giant near full wall mirrors in the living room and master bedroom. All rooms have separate air conditioning system and ceiling fans. There are screens on all of the windows. No one is above you to make noise walking around or sliding chairs in the middle of the night. No one walking by your door gawking inside your condo since you will be one flight up on a balcony overlooking the pool. Two bicycles with locks are included so you have transportation to and from town for grocery shopping. Two private lounges for use in the pool area so you are not sharing public greasy lounges. Beach towels are included as well as 3 fishing poles and tons of hooks, lures, and accessories, plus fins and masks for snorkeling, air mattresses for pool, frisbees, a coffee maker, rice maker, blender, coffee bean grinder for fresh coffee, security safe for storing valuables, all included. This is only condo with such amenities right in front of the largest pool in the area. You have everything you need here at your fingertips.

Master bedroom has a queen bed with memory foam top. Lamp stands and lamps are on either side of the bed. There are separate ceiling fans and air conditioning units in the master bedroom, guest room which has two twin beds, and main living area.

The balcony has 4 chairs, a table, and small circular table for guests. Upstairs balconies are substantially larger than downstairs units that don't have the privacy with people walking by, and the greater likelihood of something you may not want entering your dwelling (occasional iguana, visiting cat, or insects).

The beach is physically just a block away although the walk there is circular amounting to a couple blocks walk.

Grocery stores and restaurants are all within a mile and easy to get to by bicycle or walking. Taxi is only $3 to town.

Cocomarindo condo is a gated community with 24 hour security and guards at the entrance screening all visitors entering the complex.

Nice, secure space. The beds are great and everyone slept well. The property is really nicely maintained and Maria was awesome at providing support when needed. This was our first trip to CR so Cocomarindo was a great entry place to stay. The residents of Playas del Coco are great as well. Highly recommend coordinating trips through FranktheTank on Facebook. We did LaLeona Falls and a fishing/snorkel trip through him. Also, an ATV ride with CocoLoco was so fun.

Nice Location
The location was very nice and the pool as well. We found the couch (terrible) and beds to be very uncomfortable and we did not have a place to sit and relax from the sun. There property rules were a bit excessive and had I seen them prior would likely have booked elsewhere. The people here are lovely and the security was amazing - we liked her so much! Overall was a nice stay but the room lacked any comfort so was difficult to enjoy the property.

Hidden condo oasis
Didn't quite know what we were getting in for, but hidden behind the well-guarded gates is a magical Disney-like oasis of fun loving foreigners from all stretched of the world! Super close to the beach, we rented a bicycle for 2 from in town, and used the one that came with the place, to pedal over to the beach, or eat at the local soda right there on the beach. Also peddled over to playa Ocotal, which is also magical. Took a taxi to playa Hermosa to gather tiny shells, as well as to the Congo trails animal rescue(only$10/ person). Staying here you experience Playa del Coco as an interesting blend of the "haves" and "have nots"

This was a nice place for us to stay. The amenities were really great for us and we used the bikes a lot to get into town and to the beach. It was a little further to town that we expected but with the bikes, it was fine. Overall, good stay!

Coco Bay stay
Property and pool very nice. Room was average and we had to raid the place due to ants in the kitchen and 2nd bedroom. We did cook a nice steak on the grill one night and enjoyed the patio. Very close to grocery store and cab service was very safe and friendly. Front office staff super helpful as well.

The Good, The Bad , and the Ugly
This condo does have a comfortable bed, good A/C, internet and t.v. The pool is great but you can’t eat or drink at the swim- up area. The rental requires a lot of upgrading. The BBQ, both bikes and keyless entrance door locks were broken and unusable. The hide a bed couch was broken and you couldn’t even sit on it. The rental was dirty inside and ants and geckos over ran the unit. The balcony is shared with another unit therefore absolutely no privacy. We will not stay here again.

2nd stay at Cocomarindo in the same unit #72. Was as in 2019. Everything we needed. Nice people.
Largest pool in Coco. Short walk to downtown via the beach, longer by road. Very close to Liberia Airport. Plenty of great restaurants, sodas, and markets. Our host was very helpful and the others in the complex friendly.

Great Place!
We enjoyed our stay at Cocomarindo. The condo was as described, clean and roomy enough for two of us. It might get a little cramped for two couples, but a family would do fine. Most of the neighbors were friendly and helpful when we had questions. We would definitely stay again if we come back to Coco.

Relaxing in paradise.
We really enjoyed this property. When we arrived the check-in process went pretty smoothly. The security guard at the gate took very good care of us. The property is beautiful and our apartment was clean and well cared for. The kitchen is well appointed with all we needed to prepare what meals we wanted to and town was a short walk away for the rest. The bed was comfortable and the acs worked very well. We did have trouble with the internet and since our phone did not work in Costa Rica without changing the SIM card it was a little distressing not to be able to check-in with our son to say we arrived safely. We resolved the internet problem the next day and everything was great after that. There was lots to choose from as far as TV was concerned if you are a TV watcher. The pool was right outside our door and very well kept. We met lots of friendly neighbors and everyone was a wealth of information. We’ll definitely go back to visit Coco Beach area and hope to stay at Stan’s place again.

Great Condo...... Great Location.....
The condo had everything that you would need to enjoy your stay. The unit itself was very clean and the complex was meticulously maintained. The pool had a great vibe that allowed you to meet and hang-out with others. The 24 hour security was nice and the security people were very friendly (like every local in the area). However the best part was the road leading to the condo from Coco........ We stayed with our 17 year old son and all enjoyed every aspect of Cocomarindo and Guanacaste.

Nice condo, cozy relaxing place with a beautiful pool
This place was great, decent walking distance to downtown Playas del Coco. The condo is small but very nice, comfortable and clean, and fully equipped. It is right in front of the pool, which was the best part. The pool is very big and has a nice shallow part. The other guests were very friendly and fun to talk to. They gave us suggestions for tours, shopping, and good places to eat. Parking is limited inside the complex, so you may have to park outside if you rent a vehicle. Overall the place was great and exactly what we needed for our stay. We really enjoyed the proximity to the beach.

The outer appearance is a little sketchy but once inside Cocomarindo is nice.
My husband, son and I were there for 14 days. We were immediately disappointed due to the location, DONT GO BY THE DOT ON THE MAP!! We went with two other families who were completely across town, when we booked it we all tried to be in the same area, didn’t happen! Thank heaven the condo came with bikes, they were a life saver! We did have to replace a tube on my husband’s bike and the chain on the red bike kept falling off, irritating but doable. In a previous review I read about ants and the the cause was not being clean or leaving food out, not true. We cooked two meals in the condo and still had about a dozen ants, mainly in the bathroom though. Not a huge deal, the bugs that got me are these tiny bugs that were all over the table and on the wall scurrying from the light switch to the window. I finally got fed up with them and got some bug spray out of the closet. We had a hard time sitting at the table without them climbing on your hands! The laundry facility was fine except you are on your own trying to figure out how to use the card. We were given 3 loads on the card and for 12 days that was not enough! But the frustrating part was when we went to try to load the card with more points we learned that you have to go downtown someplace and get points, not convenient nor is that information mentioned anywhere. The other tenants and residents there were very friendly and so helpful. We would of been in a world of hurt without Victor, one of the guards. He was a life saver. Not a bad place to stay just frustrating with where we thought the location was,

It was a very cozy relaxing place very convenient shops, food, and the beach near by.
I was impressed the people there was friendly and kind. Stan was hands on at all times when ever I needed to phone him and have things done he was available. The only thing I would recommend is up grading the towels and wash clothes which is minor. I loved it my family enjoyed themselves and we would visit again!!
