Cottages in Costa Rica

'Lovely and clean while in the jungle. Breakfast was excellent.'

'It was my first time coming to Costa Rica. Per the reviews, I decided to come here because they mentioned Eladio would take you places, and I’m so glad I did! He is very cordial and friendly and honest. There is a slight language barrier, but he tries his very best to give you the best experience. For the home, for the excursions. All absolutely amazing. If you ever need anything, just reach out to him, and you’ll be taken care of. I’m very grateful I stayed here.'

'Our stay here was great so glad we found this place. The location was amazing and the host was great!'

'The location at the top of the hill has amazing views of the Central Valley. The accommodations are basic but a welcome bottle of wine, snacks, butter and milk for coffee are nice touches. However, there is no air conditioning and the windows face due east. In the morning, that means bright sun directly into the sleeping space. There are aluminum blinds which help lessen the sunlight a bit, but unfortunately they rattle loudly if the wind blows and vents are open to let in fresh air. The biggest...

'We had a magical time here. A very short walk to the beach with an astounding view of the bay. The host and her assistant were so kind and very attentive. There are beach side restaurants 5 minutes away and it doesn't feel at all touristy. I strongly encourage anyone to check out this lovely guest house.'

'The view from this property is amazing. The distance to town was not bad. The food in the town of Montezuma was wonderful too. Peter was a great host and we had all that we needed. We thoroughly enjoyed the covered patio watching the sun rise in the AM. And we took full advantage of the pool during the heat of the day. We will be back to visit for sure!!!'

'Very accommodating and comfortable space. A lot of outdoor seating with amazing views!'

'Wonderful, quiet, very well built and well thought through home in the jungle. Lots of animals to listen to and enjoy. The tub is wonderful after a long day surfing or exploring the jungle. Great wifi. Had many a video meeting and not one issue. Vince is easy to get in contact with and once you're checked in there's very little need to contact him. We will be back for sure.'

'It was an amazing location the views were great and the place was pretty. I love the recommendations for places to eat and things to do. Everyone was kind and welcoming.'

'On the property lives 2 roosters which are very loud (and beautifull). And you have to feed them otherwise they will scream non stop. They start to beg for food around 4 am. Plus there is no hot water in sinks which makes living very uncomfortable (no dishwasher as well). If you want to have a nice shower - forget about it! Showers have electrical warmers and you have to use small water presser to make it work. We got no hot water in both bathrooms when we arrived. Later shower was fixed in...

'My partner and I spent a week at the White Cottage... aka Ginger & Cacao. It was exactly what we were looking for and needed. The property really is carved out of the jungle and the gardens surrounding the cottage are absolutely beautiful. It was very clear to us that there was considerable thought in both designing and maintaining the gardens. We also loved being able to see an incredible number of birds, monkeys, agutis, and other animals. The cottage itself has a beautiful verandah that...

'We loved this house. It has a gorgeous view. We had access to a washer. There is a clothes line outside to dry the clothes. The clothes dried quickly as long as it didn’t rain. The air conditioning worked great upstairs. Like most Costa Rica rentals the air conditioning is just in the bedroom. Playa Conchal is our favorite beach. Not enough room to sleep 3 people comfortably, but perfect for a couple.'

'Bret and his crew were awesome people, friendly, helpful, and welcoming. The property is wonderful, we hiked it almost everyday following the many trails and finding plateaus with amazing views of Lake Arenal. Sitting on the patio having a favourite beverage, we listened to howler monkeys, saw white faced monkeys, and many species of birds including parrots and toucans. Overall we had a wonderful vacation and would highly recommend a stay at CRParaiso.'

'My husband and I had a great stay at Casita Cole from Feb1-April 5/2024 . Zindis was good to work with . Our house manager , Edgar is the greatest ! Any little issue we had he was right on it . On a larger issue he was so helpful He checked in with us a number of times to make sure all was going well . The world needs more Edgars ! When we booked the property we didn't know the maid came with the rental . Carmen and Sailyn were great , very friendly and trustworthy . Casita Cole was perfectly...

'Relaxed and laid-back. Walk to the beach for sunsets. They’re spectacular.'

'No ac, no hot water, the directions were written by an idiot, filthy, the “shower” is dangerous and not worth the risk, the tub is disgusting and both would be in freezing water. The floor would be more comfortable than the bed. No privacy. The owner of the property can not communicate and when he does he lies. We asked for ac and hot water to be fixed he asked us to mess with his electrical then said someone would come fix it which never happened. He also expected us to blindly sit at the...

'We loved our stay!! Beach is 5 minutes away and this is up on a mountain so you have amazing views. Sunsets and ocean view were so gorgeous that my partner proposed right on our balcony!!! Our hosts stayed at another cabina onsite and were SO SO SO helpful. Coordinated a lot of activities for us. The view is unbeatable and it’s very quiet. Local feeling, not a touristy area. Really lived Pura Vida in these cabinas. And the shared pool was perfect and overlooks the ocean. Please note you...

'We loved this property. It was clean, good AC, and quaint but had everything we needed. Good walking distance from town.'
