Villa holiday rentals in Playa Potrero, Costa Rica

This home was perfect for our group of six! The bedrooms were comfortable and the bathrooms were beautiful as well. Being able to do laundry was super helpful given we are traveling for two weeks with carry ons only. The host was very responsive and helpful during our whole stay! During our three night stay we easily got to see three beaches in the area! The only downside to this was the drive in to the property. While the home is in a gated community the drive there is through and underdeveloped area of guanacaste with unpaved roads with huge potholes. We had 4 wheel drive so it wasn’t a huge deal. This stay was still definitely worth the price!

Alejandro, the best host I’ve ever had. The place was beautiful. He was very responsive & informative. Me and my family took a poll on our best vacation yet, this one WON! lol we will be coming back! We loved the privacy and the modern vibes. We were able to walk to the best parts of the city. Alejandro is one of the best host I’ve ever had. Thank you and cheers!

Ethan made our check-in easy.The house was so beautiful and spacious. It was a total of six of us and we had so much room. The views and pool were amazing!!! Chris lives on the property and did a wonderful job maintaining it. He was very nice and gave us lots of recommendations of places to go. He and the host were very responsive for any of our needs. The Location was great it was close to restaurants and not far from the beaches. Everything was perfect we will be back next year:)

The view is absolutely amazing! The villa has all the amenities you’ll want and is very safe with two gates, alarm system and security cameras. The sounds of the jungle and the wildlife are very present. Very peaceful and relaxing. If you don’t mind driving 20 min to Tamarindo and seeing a few bugs, this is the best Airbnb to rent! The host is very nice and responsive. Would definitely go back!

We really enjoyed our 6 day stay at Casa La Reina! The hosts were extremely friendly and easy to communicate with throughout the booking process and our entire stay. They helped us arrange an excursion, groceries, and meals for the week. When we arrived, we were greeted by the hosts who helped show us the property and all the features. At this time we also paid for all of our groceries for the week, which were stocked in the fridge/pantry. They even had welcome snacks and drinks prepared for us when we arrived! The house is about 15 minutes from downtown Tamarindo on a gravel road. The road is fairly easy to navigate, the last part being a steep hill up to the house. We had a small SUV (Rav4) and had no issues traversing the roads. The house felt very secluded, safe and private. The house was also very well kept and had an amazing view from the deck/pool area! We had a total of 4 people (2 couples) and felt we had plenty of space and privacy while here. We would highly recommend!

We loved our stay at Kaya Villas and will definitely be back. Beds were very comfortable, the grounds beautiful and private, and close to great food and the ocean. We loved having Plays Avellanas as our home base and honestly didn’t feel the need to stray too far. Went to Tamarindo one afternoon and then to Playa Grande several times as well. Our host was super welcoming and helpful as well. 10/10!

We loved our stay at Villa Sashimi and hope to come back soon! We loved to be surrounded by nature yet very near to the beach, super markets and restaurants. The house is very comfortable and clean, and the property grounds are beautiful!

Great views. The top of the world pool within the community has unbelievable views at sunset. You’ll need to drive a little ways to get to many of the beaches but there are lots of options. House was comfortable and worked great for large group.

It was our second stay at Villa St. Barth, and we hope it will not be the last one. We enjoy this privacy oasis very close to the touristy areas of the Tamarindo Coast. The property is secluded; you neither see nor feel any neighbours, yet it is just a few hundred meters away from a very nice fish restaurant. The house is squeaky clean and very comfortable to live in. The property's focal point is a pool suitable for lap swimming. We spend hours in the pool daily, looking for a busy bird life and occasional squirrels or monkeys.

You won’t regret booking The Palms! A private, quiet retreat that was upscale and away from the hustle and bustle and party scene of some of the other Pacific Costa Rican beach towns. As a family of 5 with 3 kids ranging from 8-13 yrs old, the size of the condo was great, the kids enjoyed swimming in the waves at the beach, boogie boarding, and playing in the infinity pool with stunning beach views and sunsets. The grounds were beautiful and the staff was very attentive and kind. The bartender made me a drink off menu simply because I asked for something “uniquely Costa Rican!” The condo itself was well-stocked with staples to make for such a convenient stay. It’s even better than we imagined. There was a hiccup at check-in which caused some stress and a maintenance issue, but the Palms and host quickly made things right which was very appreciated.

Villa Guacamaya Roja was a great house in Playa Grande. About 8 minutes to walk to the beach. Large pool for the area. Great rooms. Really responsive concierge who helped book rides and excursions for the days we didn't just hang out in Playa Grande. Would definitely recommend.

We just came back from a week-long stay in this beautiful house. The pictures shown in the listing do not do justice, it is a very large house with plenty of room for 4 adults, the views from the pool and master bedroom cannot be beat, the location is great (listening to the howler monkeys at night was an added bonus), there was always plenty of hot water, and the pool is huge and was kept in pristine condition. The only slight negative we encountered was the requirement to not place any toilet paper in the toilets but rather place it in trash bags (we were not aware of this requirement prior to arrival). Other than that one minor surprise, we would definitely recommend Payton's house to anyone who wants a fun and relaxing vacation.

Absolutely great! We had the best time. Wonderful house and pool. Staff were all wonderful.

Our stay at Heather's place was absolutely spectacular, the kids really enjoyed the pool and we all enjoyed the amazingly breathtaking views of Playa flamingo. What an absolute treasure is this casa on the hill. Every detail was taken care of by the lovely concierge, Karina, including our groceries delivered and fridge stocked, easy airport transfers arranged, rental car delivered to the house, and even hiring a private chef for special dietary needs. She organized excursions for us to snorkel on a private boat, spend the day at Diamante Adventure Eco Park, complete with an awe-inspiring hipline adventure and Wildlife Sanctuary tour, lunch included. I cannot say enough for the wonderful host in creating one of the best vacations ever. Thank you to Heather and Karina for your wonderful loving care.

Our stay in Costa Rica was amazing because of this place! The house is easy to get to, right off the main road, but felt very secure and private. The lush backyard and pool gave it a resort feel without any crowds. The beach was just steps away and a great place for morning walks and watching the sunset. We were thankful for the AC because it was quite warm during our stay. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking necessities and we cooked all of our breakfasts there and a few dinners. The beds were comfortable, which is very important on vacation! We loved our stay at this house and would book it again if we return to Guanacaste!

5 Star Review: A Slice of Paradise in Costa Rica! Our stay at this stunning ocean-view Airbnb was nothing short of amazing. The views are absolutely breathtaking—sunrises and sunsets from the terrace were unforgettable. The private pool was pristine and perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. The outdoor space is beautifully designed and made it easy to enjoy the tropical weather—whether lounging, dining, or just soaking in the scenery. Inside, the large kitchen was fully equipped and made cooking a breeze. The hosts were fantastic—friendly, responsive, and truly went above and beyond to ensure we had a comfortable and memorable stay. If you're looking for a peaceful retreat with luxury touches and incredible hospitality, this is it. We can't wait to return!

Dont look elsewhere !! Helena was very responsive and helpful. The stay was the highlight of our trip!! Beautiful pool with an amazing garden that was flocked by hummingbirds, dragonflies and other colorful birds.

We had an amazing stay at casa Bosque. The beach club was a real plus and the location was out of the crowds in tamarindo but close enough to get to everything quickly/easily. Rosa took amazing care of us, she is such a gem! Highly recommend this house when visiting tamarindo!

Patricia’s home was precisely what our group was looking for in Costa Rica—spacious enough for 9 people (including two couples), private and safe, full of amenities look cooking supplies, and responsive hosts. Patricia and Susan were more responsive than any host I’ve ever stayed with. They messaged us on Airbnb and other apps for ease of communication, and check-in, which was a breeze, included a tour with the property manager. They also connected us with the most trustworthy, affordable, high-quality transportation and tour company. The property was safe, well air conditioned, comfortable, and easily accessible. If our group finds ourselves in Guanacaste again, we’d love to return to Casa Bella Tortuga once more. You made my partner’s birthday and PhD graduation celebrations all the more special. Thank you!

This was just what we were looking for - Peace and quiet with a beautiful view. The condo had everything we needed and more. One of the best stocked places we've stayed in with plenty of towels, paper supplies, kitchen supplies - everything except washclothes! Bring a few if you use them like we do. Furniture and beds were comfortable. Loved having our own private pool. Definitely recommend!

We had a great and peaceful stay here. The place is a bit secluded but that is what I wanted as I prefer to be surrounded by nature. We also explored new beaches that haven’t before. It was perfect for our stay and place looks like the pics.

Chateau Mar Vista is a fantastic stay, this is my second time there! It’s in a private community with a 24/7 guard at the gate at the bottom of the hill so feels very safe, and the drive up to the house, with its beautiful ocean views, is easy (just be sure to rent a SUV if you can). The house itself is fantastic, with AC units now in all the bedrooms and central air for the main spaces for comfort which was is all easy to use. The beaches of Hermosa, Coco, and Panama are all short drives away. This area seems to be really picking up steam with new restaurants and activities. Tyler and the Chateau team are highly responsive and happy to make recommendations. Definitely leverage them for making plans, whether that’s a fishing trip, ATVs, or whatever they have great guides they can hook you and your group up with. But just staying in the house, hanging in and around the awesome pool, and spending time with your group cooking or grilling food (there’s a grill by the pool) is great too.

We spent a month in this beautiful property. It is in a great location for exploring the area, beach time, walking to restaurants, and access to several grocery stores and local farm stands. We were sad to leave.

Amazing house and location!
