House rentals with a pool

Villa Marañón - Private house & pool
Domus’ place was absolutely stunning. The pool was clean, and so great to have with El Paradon’s warmer weather. The home was very clean, well decorated and beautiful. The house is also situated in a perfect location :) We also felt so well supported during our stay. Any questions we had were quickly answered and responded too. If you’re going to El Paradon, staying here is a must! Truly one of our favourite accommodations in Guatemala!

Linda Vista
This is such a beautiful, comfortable, and clean home with wonderful views. We spent 6 nights exploring Atenas, and this home is convenient to town and several other attractions. The hostess has a book for guests with great suggestions for what to do and see while in Atenas.

Luxury villa, private pool, 2 min from the beach
Great location right at the top of the hill. Pool overlooking the trees. We saw monkeys from the back deck. The hosts were very helpful in recommending local spots. They even included surf lessons for us. The town it is located in is small and private but it is only 15 minutes to Santa Theresa where there are a lot more food options. Roads are a bit rough but manageable. We had an excellent time and would recommend this spot to anyone!

“Villa Sanctuary”
Chris is the Man! For context, my girlfriend and I had another bnb in the area that lost power and water for 2 days! I had to book an emergency stay and Chris accommodated and responded swiftly even though it was very short notice. We fell more in love with his property than our original one lol. 10/10 stay loved the vibezz.

Casa Lili - Peacefulness & Nature
Cannot say enough wonderful things about this place. From arrival to departure we felt at home. Questions were answered immediately and our host was extremely proactive in finding or sourcing items we needed. Highly recommend their recommendation for an ATV rental, we were thrilled at having this at the place with us and made getting into town a breeze! We felt incredibly safe and everything we needed was a short distance. The house is exceptionally private and well furnished. The pool is pristine and again, the hosts are just top notch. I’ve stayed at many airbnbs and never have had such a seamless level of communication. Thank you so much for making this such a memorable trip for my family. I cannot wait to return!

Private Pool | Luxury Villa | AC
The most amazing place we have stayed in Costa Rica. We extended our stay and would have stayed longer if it was available. It’s even better than the pictures. The office was perfect for my partner and I was able to teach my yoga clients on the patio with the tropical garden backdrop! Couldn’t have asked for anything better. Anything we looked for was there, even a plug at exactly the place you would look for it! We loved the privacy the backyard gardens! Our towels were refreshed before we even had to ask! There was a little noise from the neighbouring school and a little construction, but it didn’t bother us at all. Overall Tomasso’s place exceeded our expectations and we will be happy to come back here, or visit his other properties! Pura vita!

Mahalo ~ Villa Palmera ~ Private Pool
My boyfriend and I loved our visit to Mahalo. We stayed in a private villa where we had everything we needed to enjoy the holidays. The Mahalo team helped us with our luggage the night we arrived, and our dinner was ready just in time. We loved that we had a Smart TV with access to different platforms. The pool is always clean and the food is very tasty. Perfect for a romantic getaway. And a super spectacular and friendly team. We'll be back because we love it.

Ocean View Studio, Le Suite Santa Teresa
We stayed here for a part of our honeymoon and we loved it. Both hosts were very responsive and helped us with booking our surfing class, they also sent us a bunch of restaurants and activity recommendations upon arrival. The view is stunning and we had our own private pool. Walking up and down the mountain is steep but great exercise. The rain shower is also amazing with a view of the beach. Would definitely recommend this place and we would love to come back. Pura Vida 💛
Weekly house rentals

Casa Olivo
The house had amazing views. It was close to the city, but had a rural feel. Diego sent a cleaner 3 timez during our 12 day stay. He was responsive to all our requests.

Bao Bei : Wabi Sabi Colonial Villa
Absolutely gorgeous house. A private oasis in Granada. We had so much fun lounging in the pool and listening to music. The house is massive and masterfully designed. We will definitely be back!

Santa Cruz Luxury Loft - Ocean View- Private Pool
A perfect place for a couple's getaway! The space is very nice, modern and cozy; close to many restaurants and beaches, which makes it a perfect place for couples looking for tranquility but with entertainment options nearby. Mr. Leonel and Karin were very kind and attentive. The house was super clean and everything in excellent condition, the electricity consumption control is fair. We are sure that we will repeat the experience!

Beachfront 30m above - infinity pool - 180° views
My family and I enjoyed a wonderful few days at Villa Delfín, in Playa Maderas. The villa exceeded our expectations: the views are spectacular, the pool is an ideal size and depth, and all the amenities of the house were in excellent condition. However, what really made the difference was the attention from Dan and his team. They were incredibly kind, professional, attentive, and understanding throughout our stay. I recommend Villa Delfín without hesitation!

Arenal Villa 02 Balcony
Brandon’s place is absolutely amazing. The house is beautiful and the view is stunning. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking to stay near La Fortuna!

Exclusive Luxury Home b/w the Sea and Jungle/AC
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The home is beautiful and clean. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. It was a wonderful experience.

Spacious Oceanview Luxury Villa With Infinity Pool
Very clear instructions on where to go and how to get into the house when you arrive. Easy checking in and checking out. Location is beautiful! VERY short drive to a lot of restaurants and a large supermarket. We bought groceries and cooked breakfast most mornings and a couple of dinners. There was plenty of kitchenware, a great stove, and an outdoor grill that made cooking easy. The one thing to note if you are from the USA, is that this is a Costa Rican style home. There is no air conditioning in the kitchen, and no indoor living room. Sitting spaces are outside with no climate control. The bedrooms are spread out, and the only access to most bedrooms is from the exterior balcony or patio. All bedrooms had their own air-conditioning units and were very comfortable to sleep in at night. The neighborhood is very quiet and the property is gated. We felt completely safe staying there with seven kids in our group. If we’re ever in the area again we would definitely stay again!!!

Ocean View Dream Casita - Mal Pais of Santa Teresa
My first time to this part of Costa Rica. Second time to the country. I was looking for an adventure and also relaxation. I found both here. Jen has a magical place here in Malpais. The directions, the suggestions of places to go. I loved every minute of my stay. The story is in the details and there are many to be discovered.

Casa De Ola, Jungle Beach Cabin
Fantastic view, great place to relax and disconnect for a few days!

Oceanfront Oasis: beach, private pool, AC & jungle
Sarah’s place is amazing, we will definitely be back. This house has oceanfront views, a beautiful yard and a great pool to make our stay very relaxing and peaceful! We saw macaws, a variety of birds, iguanas, lizards, coati’s and a mama sloth that the kids would run and try to spot every morning. The property manager was so friendly and helpful and would crack coconuts for us and spot the sloth when we couldn’t find her. Sarah would check in and see if we needed anything. She has a book at the house with wonderful recommendations of things to do in the area and places to visit that were reasonably close! We ate at Coquito’s frequently. They are the nicest restaurant owners with amazing food! We loved swimming in the pool and ocean every day. We enjoyed our daily beach strolls and didn’t feel like leaving much because of how peaceful and quiet Zancudo is, especially at Sarah’s place! I can’t say enough good things about this place, especially if you are looking for a relaxing getaway!

Peaceful, 3 bdrs with amazing mountain views!
We had a wonderful time The house is beautiful and equipped with everything you need. It was wonderful to enjoy nature from the terrace, the view was phenomenal. It is true that you need a 4x4 to get there, but that also ensures that once you have arrived you can enjoy absolute privacy and tranquility!

Casita Nalu • Jungle View • 5 m from Playa Hermosa
Malena's place is absolutely stunning and the perfect home base to explore Santa Teresa from. Waking up to the sunrise every morning looking out over the jungle and the mountains was magical, every detail of the place and property is beautiful, and Malena was an awesome host!

Luxury Ojochal Home with Ocean and Mountain Views
This Airbnb was amazing with a spectacular view. The house was well organized and clean. If you’re looking for a secluded stay with beautiful scenery then look no further. I loved the floor plan of the house and how the master bedroom, master bathroom and living room all had glass doors that could open to allow guest to view the backyard, mountains, and ocean. The only thing I would like to make future guest aware of is the road to the house. If you’re renting a vehicle make sure that it is four wheel drive and be prepared to handle the terrain. All in all 10/10 stay.

Hilltop Sanctuary with Yoga Deck
What an incredible place. It’s a few minutes outside Tamarindo and Playa Flamingo and worth the drive. The place has insane views and is so unique. Would stay here again in a heartbeat. 11/10.

Azul - Mountainside Retreat Exquisite OceanViews
Casa Azul was an absolute gem. The villa is beautiful, peaceful, and perfectly positioned with a breathtaking view overlooking the water and scenery. Watching the sunrise and sunset from the property was unforgettable. The home is well-maintained and designed for total relaxation—everything about it felt serene and welcoming. If you’re looking for a scenic, tranquil getaway, Casa Azul is the perfect choice.

Majestical jungle house with Caribbean view
Jessica really helped us out through a very difficult situation. After being double booked at another place, she got us in the next day extra early. She was super responsive and easily the best host I have dealt with yet. I strongly encourage staying here. Just as a word of advice, you 100% need to have 4x4 to get to this place. You may not need a full size SUV with 4x4, but anything helps.
