Barefoot Beachfront | Pool, Surf & Private Casita

House and yard are nice but we experienced unpleasant issues.Front door locking mechanism is faulty and caused great difficulty every time we returned to the house from an outing. The door would stick and jam after entry code was keyed in, and would not open without brute strength and multiple tries. We sent photographs to the host of the mangled lock (metal bent and lock mechanism marred) on our very first day and requested someone to come to the house to fix it. But no one came. The house has a central alarm system on the wall, but absolutely no instructions were available on how to use it. Only a keypad code was given.The internet went out on day five and we reported it to the host, as we had no WiFi and no tv. We reset the router multiple times, which didn't help. On day six, Host sent a very nice but technically untrained young man to fix it. Felt really bad for him because he clearly had no clue what to do (he had no tools, no equipment, no know-how about the issue.) On day seven, we were told the service provider has a technician on the way, but that person never arrived. When we checked out on day 10, system was still down.Lastly, the house immediately next door has a barking dog that made it impossible to enjoy poolside time or time in the backyard. The dog barked incessantly until evening, when the owner returned home.Overall, we were not impressed with this house.

Amazing property! 30 sec walk to almost private beach.

Very good place, the house had everything you needed

The house was in a great location. It feels like you are on a private beach. The pool was great for the kids. You can surf right out the back door, or walk about a half mile down the beach to Playa Grande for an even better surf break. There are 3 or 4 restaurants in Playa Grande that are a short drive away. You are also about 25 min from Tamarindo. Overall it was a great stay and we would come back. Can't beat the location on the beach.

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The villa is described as luxury with many perfect pictures, but in reality, it’s quiet normal quickly revovated property with many troubeled details.... The biggest advantage is location on the beach, which is fantastic....

The house is huge and so comfortable. we really loved staying there and we want to return with our large family.

Wonderful wonderful place!!! The beach is so beautiful and quiet. We had a private chef in to create a scrumptious meal. So comfortable and clean. We really can’t say enough good things about this rental- excited to come back!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family loved everything about this house. The home is beautiful - the pictures don’t fully represent the beauty. 2 master’s with private bathrooms in the main house and a small casita by the pool could work for multiple couple or a large family like ours. One master in the main house is near two other bedrooms who share a bathroom - this was perfect for our kids. One separate master upstairs has an amazing balcony. The landscaping and gardens on the property are incredibly maintained. An automatic drive-in gate and locking gate to the beach provide the security anyone would appreciate. A short few steps from the back gate puts you on the quiet beach. With a 1/4 mile walk you are on Playa Grande to surf. You are also within a short drive to the quaint town of Playa Grande. If you’re looking for a restful getaway in a beautiful home (with a “private” beach and pool) this is it!

Our stay was one of the best experiences I’ve had. The house was absolutely amazing. Everything was clean and ready for use. The decor also gave it a very modern/bohemian feel and I loved it! The beach was clean and felt very private. While sitting pool side, we could here the sounds of the waves crashing and it was very relaxing. Tony, the concierge was easy to communicate with and helpful in every way. He recommended restaurants on the surrounding towns to try and they did not disappoint. For anyone who stays at this property and want to eat out, try Pots and Bowls, we had it for breakfast and it did not disappoint. We also had the chef service for 3 dinners and the chef was amazing and a one of a kind experience. Highly recommend this place.
