House holiday rentals in Gulf of Papagayo

We stayed for one week. We loved how peaceful it was and the pool was much needed. The monkeys are the highlight - they come and go without any bother. Could watch them all day.

We had an unforgettable stay at this stunning Airbnb in Tamarindo! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by how beautiful and well-kept the space was. The home was not only spotless and comfortable, but thoughtfully designed with a warm, welcoming vibe that made it feel like a true tropical escape. Every detail — from the cozy furnishings to the serene outdoor area — was exactly as pictured, if not better. What really set this place apart, though, was the host’s exceptional responsiveness. Anytime we had a question or request, they replied almost instantly and went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. Their attentiveness made everything so smooth and hassle-free, which allowed us to just relax and enjoy our time. Whether you’re looking for a peaceful getaway or a base to explore Tamarindo, this Airbnb is a perfect choice. We’ll absolutely be booking again — and we couldn’t recommend it more!

Our stay in Potrero was nothing short of incredible! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warmth and care. Francisco was absolutely amazing—friendly, attentive, and went above and beyond to make our experience unforgettable. Amy was extremely communicative throughout the entire process, always available to answer questions and offer helpful local recommendations. The home had everything we needed and was extremely comfortable—truly a home away from home. The pool was nice and refreshing, a wonderful addition that made relaxing after a day of exploring even better. One of the absolute highlights of our trip was the sunset experience in Las Catalinas and dining at Sentido Norte. Do yourself a favor and make time for both. The views are breathtaking, and the food and atmosphere at Sentido Norte are top-notch. We can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend this stay to anyone looking for an authentic, relaxing, and well-hosted Costa Rican getaway!

We wish we could have stayed longer! This is such a wonderful location with stellar views. Perfect for our family. Best hosts we have ever dealt with. Amazing communication and very helpful with the entire process. You could tell how important it was for them that we enjoyed our stay. Thank you! Don't miss staying here if in Playa Hermosa.

I would definitely recommend staying! Beautiful home within walking distance to Ocotal Beach and a great restaurant!

Jake and his team were available and understanding. They provided an opportunity for me to enjoy my stay stress free. Would stay at this home again! :)

Olga’s place was amazing! Closer to town than we thought. The space and pool were perfect. There were three of us, but you could easily accommodate three couples. Olga checked in on us and made sure we had all of the amenities we needed. Would stay here again!

We stayed here with our 6 month old baby and it was wonderful. Shops and restaurants are close by (although not walkable with a baby stroller as the roads are dirt roads and rocky and bumpy) but very doable without a baby stroller. We especially loved the back yard with the private pool and were in it every day!! The place was very clean, beds were really comfortable and kitchen was well equipped with all the amenities we needed.

Casa Rosita was amazing….. every little thing. The location, neighborhood, amenities and the furnishings. We spent so much time on the covered porch and pool in the afternoons and evenings. Having access to the beach club was a huge benefit…. We loved hanging by the pool, watching the monkeys and having cocktails. Will be back!

This place was pristine! Whoever designed this home had excellent attention to detail. The landscape has grown in nicely since the pictures were taken so the property was even more beautiful than expected. With no adjacent rear neighbor, the trees, foliage and wildlife behind the home are beautiful. In fact, there is only one home adjacent to the property but and it's separated by a pretty good privacy fence. Loved the small surf town of Playa Grande as well!

WONDERFUL owners and home! This was a great spot in a safe place. Just minutes away from Playa Conchal and Playa Flamingo. The communication was A+++ and so was their home. Google maps got a little confused about the address so it took a few extra minutes but the owner helped immediately. It is a beautiful place and completely fenced/gated. Highly recommend!

This Airbnb is the perfect place to disconnect. The area is super quiet—ideal for relaxing and recharging. From the moment we arrived, the check-in process was smooth and hassle-free. Rodrigo was an amazing host—always attentive, quick to respond, and thoughtful about every detail. You can tell he genuinely cares about making the stay great. If you’re looking for a peaceful getaway away from the noise, this is the spot. Highly recommended!

Great place to stay! We loved the jungle feel at casa abejas and the salt water pool was amazing.

Yerry was an excellent host, always very willing to answer all my doubts and also a very friendly and accessible person. The place was perfect: clean, comfortable and with everything you need for a carefree stay. You can tell that you have put a lot of love on this project, and I really hope you keep going in the best way. Thank you for everything!

Our family of 3 had a wonderful stay at Casa Emy! Emy goes above and beyond to make her guest house welcoming (it is well-equipped!), and she went above and beyond to help us feel at home and provide local recommendations. She lives right next door, so when the dryer in our house didn’t work, she even took all of laundry and returned it dried AND folded! She was really a wonderful host! Both times we went for a swim at the pool, we had it to ourselves. We loved being close to the airport (35 minutes) for the last couple nights of our Costa Rican adventure, and also within a reasonable distance of multiple beaches. Thank you, Emy!

Wow! This place was amazing for our family’s stay in Costa Rica. The pool was a huge hit and we frequently came back mid day to refresh and then go get some dinner. The big double opening doors were awesome in the mornings to let in the sounds of the surrounding wildlife. One of our last nights we went to El Beach Club in playa grande and had an awesome meal. Definitely worth checking out if you stay here! Our kids loved the 2 Cats that seem to frequent the property and were super cute and pleasant. All in all don’t hesitate to stay here if you are looking at this area. It’s a bit of a drive to Tamarindo, but it is really nice at the end of the day to come back to the peace that this offers. We loved it! Great place and amazing hosts!

The best AirBnB ever! I was sad to leave this incredible home away from home. It has everything you need. Usually, rentals lack the right utensils, enough plates, etc… NOT THIS PLACE! This had everything and all the nice extras. I highly recommend this home for an incredible vacation experience. We were able to enjoy all that Playa Grande has to offer plus some other wonderful excursions that were short drives away. AMAZING! Ready to come back.

Great location in Playa del Coco! Easy access to the beach, shops, and restaurants, but not in the busy area so still relatively peaceful. 35 minutes to the airport or rental car return location. We will definitely stay again!

I loved the container house! We went to rest with my partner and two dogs and it was amazing. I loved the pool and the deck too much. And I was fascinated by many details of the house, such as kitchen tiles, bathroom, sliding doors. Beautiful quiet place to enjoy and/or rest. I wanted to stay longer, so we'll definitely be back!

Incredible Villa in an amazing location! The peace and quiet you get in the hills is just perfect after you’ve had a busy day either in the city (short 15 min drive) or out doing excursions. The view and the pool are just heavenly, photos on the listing don’t do it justice. Can’t wait to come back!

Andres place was the perfect getaway for my wife and myself. We stayed there about a week. The place is absolutely gorgeous and peaceful. We could hear the Howler Monkeys at times and listen to the birds and the rain was the best. Very close to all the amenities, plenty of restaurants, shopping, and beaches. PERFECT!!!

This place is a gem! The location is perfect for exploring the area, the house is stylish and comfortable, and the host was incredibly responsive and helpful. We had a wonderful time and would highly recommend it!

Amazing, and we can’t wait to return! Estevan was such a great communicator and so welcoming. We appreciate the Estefan’s suggestions for beaches, local needs, etc….. Those small gestures go a long way. The house is so beautiful, functional and extremely comfortable. You can hear the nature at this location and it’s very close to everything lovely in the area. It’s quiet yet close to your needs. Incredible & highly recommend.

This was our first time in Costa Rica and we picked this place based off of the pictures and reviews. Like other reviewers say, this goes way above and beyond the pictures shown. Only because it’s impossible to capture the magic of Isaac’s stunning casa. We were a family of 4 (2 adults and 2 kids) and it fit our needs plus way more. The view out the back is magical! The infinity pool was everything after a long day of adventuring and being at the beach. Isaac is an incredible host and we are so grateful for him sharing his beautiful home with us. Costa Rica is the most magical place we have been, and Isaac’s place took it to a whole another level of beauty!
