Property Description
Welcome to our home, CASA COSTA PALMERA, steps away from the Pacific Ocean on the wonderful sands of Playa Grande, Costa Rica. Nestled in the coconut palm trees, built on the sands of the beach, Casa Costa Palmera (sleeps 13) is a vacation home that will leave you breathless. Travel + Leisure Magazine rated COSTA RICA Destination of the year 2024. Playa Grande has been rated in the top 30 as one of the best beaches on earth. Casa Costa Palmera just so happens to be exactly 40 paces away from where the picture were taken for the magazine. Swim and surf right outside the house. NO volcanic rock obstructions which limit water activities at other nearby beaches. We are located in Playa Grande 200 meters north of the Hotel Las Tortugas. OUR HOUSE IS LOCATED ON THE BEACH. Literally, the beach is your backyard. Costa Palmera has one of the best beachfront views on the entire coast. Whether you are coming to the gorgeous Central American country of Costa Rica for a great adventure or to get away from it all, we can accommodate you. The amazing hand crafted woodwork and the beautiful granite counter tops inside this 4 bedroom beach home will truly make you feel like you are on a vacation for the memories. Our home has a privately built-in swimming pool with swim-up stools and BBQ area. Excellent maid service is included daily. We provide linens and beach/bath towels. Cooking is available at an additional cost. Theo, a private masseuse can be hired and massages performed on the premises. Guard on the property at night. Unlike many vacation properties, Costa Palmera is open and airy, doused with a contemporary touch in the interior of the home. This 4-bedroom beach house has furnishings in every room, along with air conditioning in all rooms. The kitchen and dining room face out towards the ocean leaving for an alluring view of the Pacific Ocean and magnificent sunsets at dusk. The house is equipped with WIFI, making it possible for one to accomplish their daily tasks at work while basking in the sun and enjoying their tropical get away. Also known as Las Baulas National Marine Park, Playa Grande is a sanctuary for the leatherback turtles whom every year return to the shoreline to lay their eggs. Because the beachfront is nationally protected, it is one of the cleanest beaches in the country. The shoreline is also relatively flat, making for a great place to take your shoes off and go for an evening walk after dinner. Whether you’re on a honeymoon or a surprise birthday vacation, executive or yoga retreat, Costa Palmera is fully equipped to handle all groups. Known for its consistent world-class surf, Playa Grande is a surfer’s paradise. The winds are frequently off shore making for well-shaped waves and great surf. Unlike many prestigious surf breaks, the flat, sand-bottomed beach of Playa Grande makes it possible for surfers of all skill levels to have a great time. Surf lessons are just a phone call away right out in front of the villa. There are a few boogie boards at the house. The things to do are left to the imagination to explore, including golfing, horseback riding, rain forest excursions, volcano tours, ATVing, fishing, sailing, and much more. With Playa Flamingo to the north and the quaint beach town of Tamarindo a few miles to the south, Playa Grande is at the epicenter of Guanacaste. Tamarindo has great nightlife on weekends and is a great place to have a lively evening with friends and family. There are a few family owned restaurants near the house, along with a fully equipped surf shop to rent surf boards and/or purchase apparel and many other items. Master Bedroom: King Size bed, bathroom with shower Bedroom 2: Queen Sized bed, bathroom with shower Bedroom 3: Queen sized bed, bathroom with shower Bedroom 4: 2 Queen beds, 1 full, 1 twin, bathroom and shower Included in the rental rate is all fees, wireless Internet, maid service, and nightly security. The owners take great care making sure Casa Costa Palmera is the best rental house on the beach. Repairs and upgrades occur frequently as the proximity to salt water and air can wear on the house quicker than non-beachfront homes. Please immediately alert staff and management if anything is NOT working properly at the house. We need to know. Nearly 40% of clientele are returning guests who love the house and some consider Casa Costa Palmera their second home. We want all our guests to enjoy all Costa Rica has to offer. Please reach out to Shawna should you need anything during your stay such as help with airport shuttles, car rentals, stocking the refrigerators prior to arrival, setting up excursions, etc. Keywords: beachfront, world-class surf sandy beach, playa grande, vacation in paradise, exotic get away, small private pool, Baulas national park, leatherback turtles, kid friendly, maid service, single level, A/C, single-level home, cooking available, massages, 4 bedroom rental, 4 bath, beachfront villa, sunset viewsAbout pets:No pets allowed.About checkOut:Check out before 10:00 AM.About children:Children allowed: ages 0-17.Perfect family vacations,retreats, wedding parties.About checkIn:Check in after 3:00 PM.About smoking:Smoking is not permitted.No smoking or e-cigarettes permitted inside.About minBookingAge:Minimum age to rent: 25.About events:No events allowed.Special event party only with prior notification.

Great time. House was fantastic and on a great beach. Only small downside was there was a public parking lot next door. No issues due to it, just less private than expected.

Exceeded expectations The house was perfect for our group. We loved that we could walk out the door and be on the beautiful beach. Tatiana, Teu, Johnny, and Marco took wonderful care of us. The dinner Tatiana cooked for us and the massages were two of our favorite memories from the trip. I would be thrilled to stay there again.

Amazing stay for family vacation We absolutely loved our stay! After researching properties in the Tamarindo area we decided to spend a bit more than we budgeted for this property. Probably more than we needed house wise for our family of 4, but the location and beach proximity drew us in. We couldn't have been happier with the home and location. Check in was a breeze. The beach access was so convenient to be able to go in and out as we pleased. Having boogey boards onsite was so great with such an amazing surf. After going to Tamarindo for an afternoon and dinner we were even more happy with this location on Playa Grande, as it is so much quieter than Tamarindo with no one trying to sell you anything. There are a few restaurants in the area that were great. The grocery stores will do, but are small and limited with higher pricing (which the owners let us know in communication before coming in which helped). There are plenty of towels and dishes, etc in the home to use. There is a black sand beach just a bit north (pretty easy hike) that was really cool so see. The pool was a refreshing change with the heat we had during our stay. The staff that supports the home were super friendly. Overall, we couldn't have enjoyed our time more and loved the property!

Perfect beach getaway. The house was perfect. Private pool area to cool off. Location was incredible. Being right on the beach, there is no reason to leave the property. Boogie boards and bikes were fun. Staff were helpful and someone was always available. I hope to be able to come back again soon. I Loved my stay at Costa Palmera.

Great location and house On the beach. 4 bed/5 bath. Shawna helped to book activities (and make changes) and Tatyana’s mom provides excellent massages. The house was clean, beds comfy and a full kitchen with more then you need. I Felt secure in the evenings. Bring your own toiletries like lotion, shampoo, soap.
