Great House and Location

We had a great 10 days in this home. The rooms are spacious and comfortable and they all have their own bathrooms with showers. The kitchen is well stocked and the living area is roomy and comfortable. Having a private pool was fabulous and there are many shaded areas to relax in the yard so you can enjoy the outdoors when it is hot and sunny. The pool gets a variety of shade and sun throughout the day which is perfect. The deck furniture is comfortable with lots of seating options. It is a short walk to a great surfing beach and there are a lot of great places to eat nearby. Kristi and Doug are wonderful property managers and they are an excellent resource for recommendations for activities. If you can do the La Leona Waterfall hike we highly recommend that one and we also loved the catamaran tour. We would definitely return there again!

Christmas Vacation

The property is functional, the interior is sparsely decorated with older furniture (some of which was not in good shape). The exterior is lovey, with a nice pool and lounge chairs. No pool floats though and no full sun if you are looking for an opportunity to tan. The beach is a good 10 minute walk, but is a great area because it doesn’t get too crowded and has good waves for surfing. The water taxi is also a 10 minute walk. We did have some communication difficulties with the manager - don’t expect a timely response over VBRO. Once you are in country on WhatsApp it improved tremendously.

Tropical jungle hideaway

Casa Marbella was a slice of heaven backing up to the estuary that offered a quiet solace of nature with wildlife at your fingertips. Short walk to the beach eliminated any foot traffic by the house but close enough to local eateries that safety was never a concern. Kristi and Doug were there for any questions or concerns and made our stay comfortable. Highly recommend Cafe Mar Azul for all meals, please say hi to Grace for us! The Tres Leches is to die for!!!!! Will definitely stay here again on our next trip back to Costa Rica!

Casa Marbella

First let me say we had a very good time despite a few disappointing things. The villa was a bit oversold. It was adequate for our needs but little things like sheets with tiny holes, dirty bathroom walls,especially the down stairs half bath. The pool was in the shade 90% of the day. Gated community is dirt roads with a arm across the entrance unattended during the day. Kristi made the car rental and transportation to and from the airport very easy. The house is 30-60 minutes from activities such as fishing, snorkel boats, zip lining etc. 3 restaurants in the compound was a plus. The beach is quiet and beautiful. Watch the water.. strong rip tides in some areas. Take them serious when they say to keep doors locked and alarm activated. We failed to lock a sliding door and the alarm was not set the night we were robbed while we slept. Our own fault for getting complacent as the area feels very safe.

Met expectations for the most part

My family of 5 (two adults, 3 teens) stayed for 8 nights. The house is very large and we had an overall nice experience. However, the road leading to the community is riddled with potholes, so much so that we didn't want to leave during our stay so we didn't have to pass through it. The location of the house is very convenient to the beach and local restaurants which we found delightful. The mattresses in most of the bedrooms were comfortable, but the one in the king upstairs bedroom needs to be replaced. Walking to that bedroom is an adventure due to the dozen bats who live in the breezeway leading to it. The window glass in the upstairs queen bedroom has a large crack in it. On our first night, we woke up to find a scorpion in the bedroom that probably got in through the crack. Nobody felt comfortable staying in that room the rest of the week. Aside from the bedrooms, there is no comfortable furniture anywhere in the house. The plastic loungers by the pool are cracked. One of the showers did not work at all and despite telling the manger about it on the first day of our stay, it was never fixed. Contrary to other reviews, we had a very hard time communicating with Kristi. She said she would meet us at the house at check in but never showed up. We sent a few messages during the week asking for recommendations, etc., and always waited several days for a one or two sentence reply which by then was too late to be useful. The guide book in the house is old and dirty. Overall ok.

Great stay in Playa Grande

Really loved the house and location. 5 mins walk from playa grande. Just a few steps to the river. The house was well equipped and exceeded expectations. The pool area was lovely. It was neat to see birds, monkeys, lizards and bats on or near the property. Kristi the neighbor and concierge was wonderful and so helpful. I’d book here again if I make it back to Playa Grande. Having 4-5 restaurants within a few minutes walk was excellent. There was even people that could bring fresh fish directly to the house. Great experience. We were a family of seven and had plenty of room with the included (extra) mother in law suite.

Safe, private, relaxing getaway

My husband and I booked this property to take our two young adult sons (21 and 22)on a family vacation. The gated community was perfect for our sons to venture out without us worrying about them driving to unfamiliar areas. It was very convenient to have shops, cafe, restaurant and bar in the gated community. I spent more time on the patio by the pool than in the house! Beautiful layout with sun and shaded areas at different times of the day, surprisingly private. You can also see the estuary from the patio. Beach access was really easy and our sons made it down for every sunset. The bedrooms were very large, everyone had their own beautiful bathroom. Kristi and Doug made our late arrival so easy as well as early checkout. They recommended the best places that we ate in our entire 10 days in Costa Rica. Kitchen and outdoor cooking area were more than enough for our group size. Beautiful home, highly recommend!

The house is in a great location with easy access to beautiful beach, market and restaurants, all in Pal Beach Estates. The rooms are separated enough to provide privacy but common areas (living room, kitchen and pool deck) allow opportunity for socializing.

Hidden Paradise

Fantastic place, great location! Great people! Great food! Kristi was fantastic setting up our tours and transportation with Alvaro. Alvaro and Jose were fabulous and very accommodating and informative. Great restaurants all within walking distance. Beach was beautiful and not busy. Walked to Tamarindo on the beach a few times, very busy over there but cool to see, just remember to bring money to take the boat across the river. Lots of surfing, low tide was incredible to see. Sunsets so beautiful. Only negative would be needed more comfortable patio furniture around pool, there wasn’t enough lounge chairs we had to use the wooden chairs from the table. Would go back in a heart beat!!! Thanks Kristi for making our stay spectacular!!

Amazing location with total tranquility

The property backs up to the nature reserve and we had a howler monkey right in the tree above as we swam. The pool was perfect and the patio cover kept us cool from the hot afternoon sun. Beach and restaurants are within an easy walk so everything you need for a relaxing vacation is right there. The hosts were amazing and there to help with anything needed. Overall an awesome experience!

Quiet, convenient location

We had a great stay. Kristi is a great host and was communicative and helpful. The location is great if you are looking for something quiet but still within an easy walk or drive of restaurants. Our kids spent hours in the pool, which was cleaned daily, except for Sunday. The beach near this house is excellent for finding shells and surfing/boogie boarding. We also used the casita that is attached but separate from the rest of the house, which was great to give the other adults in our group space. Overall, great property!

Amazing Experience

A beautiful home nestled in the rainforest which provided a relaxing and quiet stay. The home was very spacious and clean as well as the pool and patio. Only a 5-6 minute walk to the beach which was nice, calming, somewhat secluded and relaxing!! Kristi and Doug’s customer service was impeccable. Anything needed they were very responsive from recommendations to any other info needed. The food recommendations located near the home was delicious….Cafe Mar Azul was our favorite! We were able to see animals in their natural habitat from the backyard! If you want to visit Tamarindo it’s a short boat ride up the estuary for only a few US dollars. Beautiful beach and good food and a lot more people. Amazing experience for our 10 day stay. Highly recommend!

Great Costa Rica stay

Loved our stay at Casa Marbella! Playa grande was such a great place to stay that was a little secluded and away from the tourists vibe you can get with Tamarindo - while being close enough to go explore there during the day. There were a ton of great food/restaurant options, all within walking distance from the home, a place that provided surf lesson (and the beach is way less crowded allowing for much easier lessons than what we saw on the Tamarindo side). Kristi, the properly manager, was absolutely wonderful and responsive with anything we needed. She helped us get a rental car set up (we prefer to have our own ride on our own time) but she has a connection for a vehicle transport and boat transport to get you directly to/from the house and Tamarindo!! Pool was great, cleaned daily and so refreshing. Towels/linen all provided and beds comfortable. Each room has it's own AC unit to adjust per person/persons. Wish we could have stayed longer, would definitely want to stay here again when we're able to make it back!
