Cecropia Paradise !
Such a beautiful place! Our 9yr old loved waking around the well maintained garden and my husband took some great pictures of the many hummingbirds around. Monica and her family are amazing hosts. Very helpful before and during our visit. She got us set up with all tours we wanted to take. And worked with us when we had to reschedule. One of the most memorable tours was of the Cloud Forest😄. Our guide Kevin was great, knowledgeable and fun. They have lovely handcrafted items in their shop, we bought some to gift to family back in the States. Overall we had a fantastic stay. Highly recommended!

Down by the Sea, beachfront Studio - Apartment
The studio by the sea is wonderful, serene and beautiful. It's steps from the beach, surrounded by lush nature and very comfortable. The space has all the amenities needed to enjoy your stay, well appointed kitchen, bath, linens, beach towel. It's clean and tranquil. Heike and Hans are super friendly, helpful and knowledgable about the area & Costa Rica in general. They were so kind to accomdate our dogs, give them treats, water and lots of love. When we return to Coyote, we will definitley visit with them again.

Tarzan Jungle Home for Big Families w/ AC & Pool
My family LOVED the Tarzan house. My children said it was the "funnest AirBnB" they have ever been to. We had so much fun zip lining into the pool and there were so many things to keep us entertained. The beds are big enough for 2 and we thought they were comfortable. Paul recommended a Mangrove tour where we got to see wild monkeys and get pictures with them (TONS of fun). Although the location was secluded, there is a local family owned restaurant 3 minutes from the Airbnb with great food and even better staff called "Ranchos Los Garrobos". If we have the chance to come to Costa Rica again, we will be booking with Paul. Thank you for hosting us!

Hermosa´s Garden
Lana’s place is a great location. Easy walk to the beach. Very clean. Nice swimming pool. She showed us around, pointed out restaurants etc. and was very helpful with anything we needed. I would definitely recommend her place!

OCEANFRONT PARADISE, CASA SOL in Playa Negra!
Wow! What an epically beautiful place. I highly recommend this AirBNB, Playa Negra, and Costa Rica. Words cannot express how awesome this trip was. We had a family of 5 (kids: 6,4,4). The beach and pool at the AirBNB were exceptional. And Playa Negra beach was very close for great wave action. The town of Playa Negra is charmingly perfect (coffee shop, a couple restaurants, small market). We are grateful for the experience.

Casa Elsita
lovely home in a lovely town with a lovely host! heilyn was very communicative and helpful with bus info. we enjoyed cooking in the kitchen and the company of the cats.

Passiflora Ground level/Best wifi in Playa Grande
David is the man! I stayed here for two months and loved it. Perfect for someone who's in PG to surf. I will be staying here again for sure. David is a great host and makes you feel welcome. Also, if you want to you can hang out with a cool dog, Tilo.

Sacred Playground LuxuryCasita2
What a beautiful and tranquil place! It's well off the beaten track and very quiet and peaceful, which may not appeal to everyone but was great for us. The rooms and bathrooms are modern, stylish, comfortable and easy to keep cool with AC. The only downside was the lack of consistent hot water for showers (it's hot here, so cold showers are fine, but it's nice to have the option for warm water when you want it!). The rancho and kitchen area is a lovely place to cook, eat and hang out. The kitchen is spacious and well equipped, albeit a little neglected and chaotically organised (not a big deal). The natural pool is fantastic, as is the nearby river. The host was easy to communicate with and friendly when we met. Something to note is that from the pictures I thought we would have the whole casita to ourselves, but it's split in two halves with potential other guests on the other side. Luckily we got along well with the other guests, but something to keep in mind with regards to privacy.

Lux living near beach
Great place loved the decor and all the amenities: Pool, jacuzzi, covered bbq and entertaining area, place work outside...Super close to the beach and very quiet........Super gem and great hosts!

Modern Studio Hacienda Pinilla
We had the most wonderful time staying at Vicente and Juliana’s studio! They were wonderful hosts…very easy to get ahold of and so helpful with any questions we had. The studio was stylishly designed and perfectly matched the posted pictures! My favorite part was the open air shower! We felt very safe inside their gated community and all of the houses were stunning. The community was also very private and easily accessible with lots of amenities including the beach club and golf. Their home is close to restaurants, excellent surfing spots, and endless beaches. We would recommend Il Rustico for dinner, Floresta for coffee/breakfast, and Surgya Organic Market for specialty shopping. We would also recommend using the app Waze to get to the studio from the airport because other map apps weren’t working for us! We would definitely recommend booking with Vicente and Juliana and hopefully will be heading back to enjoy more of Costa Rica soon! :)

Monteverde Sierra Homestay
Wir waren sehr positiv überrascht! Von der überdachten Terrasse mit tollem Blick über grüne Hügel führt eine Glastür in die geräumige Küche und eine zweite in den Wohnbereich mit Bett, kleinem Sofa und angrenzenden Bad. Alles war sehr neu und modern. Die Gastgeber empfingen uns persönlich und gaben uns Infos zur Unterkunft als auch zur Umgebung. Auch als wir zum Beispiel später nach zusätzlichen Küchenutensilien fragten, reagierten sie sehr schnell und super freundlich. Am meisten Kontakt hatten wir aber mit der Hündin, die uns jeden Morgen auf der Terrasse begrüßt hat - wir wurden schnell beste Freunde. Wir würden auf jeden Fall wieder kommen! Wir sind mit dem Mietauto angereist und waren froh, dass wir etwas mehr Bodenfreiheit hatten. Die Straße zur Unterkunft ist nur teilweise asphaltiert. Wie übrigens auch die meisten anderen Straßen abseits der großen Hauptstraßen ;)

Tranquility Studio in Potrero w/ocean view
I thoroughly enjoyed staying here. The unit is on the top (third) floor and has expansive views in all directions. The main wall of windows looks out towards the ocean and sunset. It was private and very spacious. Every morning it was entertaining to listen to and watch the numerous varieties of birds flying around. Everything was super clean, which I appreciate very much. There were lots of thoughtful touches; detailed binder with lots of info, umbrella (it didn't rain once), flashlight just in case, coffee, spices, shampoo & conditioner, and lots of books! Harriet and Adam were great hosts and made me feel welcome. They often checked with me to make sure all was comfortable and well (thank you!). I enjoyed participating in a yoga class that Harriet teaches in her on-site studio.

Apartamento con cochera 1
The room was perfect for a few nights and allowed us to cook most of our meals. Location is beautiful and easy to walk into town. Lili was an incredible host! She was always extremely responsive and friendly. She gave us tons of recomendaciones and helped us book a few tours for our time in Monteverde. The place was great and Lili made it even better!

Private 1-bedromm place, free parking near airport
I highly recommend this place; it is definitely a peaceful place where you feel at home. The host was very kind, had a smooth check-in, and had clear instructions.

Coastal Hideaway, 5 min to beach, gated community
The photos don’t do this place justice! It’s quite large! We appreciated how extremely clean it was. The view off the deck is beautiful, and we also appreciated the covered parking. There was a plumbing issue during our stay where smelly gas would get pushed up from the shower at night, but it was resolved by covering the drain and David was super, super responsive through that, as well as when the breaker needed to be reset. There was even a cleaning during our 5 night stay, which we really appreciated! Cannot beat the ease of access to the beach and deli cafe’s delicious baked goods nearby. Wonderful hosts on all fronts!

Lovely Studio & Pool w/Security
Very safe, beautiful place! Thank you!! The view when we woke in the morning is just incredible!

5 Star view Studio Apt
Wonderful view overlooking the Pacific Ocean and the marina. We would definitely stay again if we need a place in Quepos.

Luxury 3-BR home w/ parking on premises
We had a nice stay at Susan and Victor's place. It was a nice place, in a nice neighborhood, and very convenient to everywhere we wanted to go.

The Little Nest
Great cozy little place. Close to Parque Viva and the airport.

Mountain Vista
This is my second time staying here and the place never disappoints. The view is absolutely breathtaking. The environment is peaceful and relaxing and couldn’t have asked for a better host. John and his wife Yvonne went above and beyond checking on me after having a procedure and are absolutely delightful hosts! Looking forward to going back, will definitely stay there again and highly recommend!
