Five minutes from uncrowded Playa Grande beaches, right across from the Children's Park. Four comfortable bedrooms sleep your whole crew, while our 24/7 local team handles everything from surf lessons to private chefs. Families love us for the space, the location, and the peace of mind. Check your calendar! We'd love to host you. The Space: Casa Kai gives families room to spread out and actually relax. The open kitchen flows into a living room where everyone can hang out together, not squeezed onto one couch. Sliding doors open to your private outdoor space: pool with a gentle waterfall (the kids will live in it), 8-person dining table for family meals outside, and loungers for parents who just want to sit with a book. The Pool Everyone Asks About Large shallow lounge area perfect for younger kids to play safely. Waterfall feature adds ambiance without being loud. We've had families spend entire afternoons here while parents take turns relaxing poolside. Bedrooms That Work for Real Families \- Primary suite: King bed, en-suite bathroom with soaking tub (parents, this one's yours) \- Family room: King bed plus two twins—perfect for parents with kids or two couples sharing \- Bedroom 3: Double bed \- Bedroom 4: Two singles for kids All beds have quality linens that actually feel good. Each room has AC you control yourself and enough closet space to unpack properly. Location That Makes Sense Walk to Playa Grande beach in 5 minutes (or drive in 2 if you're loaded down with beach gear). The Children's Park is directly across the street: helpful for burning off energy before dinner. Beach is never crowded, great for families learning to surf or just playing in the waves.

The Neighborhood: Playa Grande is a hidden gem on Costa Rica’s Gold Coast, known for its unspoiled beauty, laid-back charm, and exceptional surf. Nestled within Las Baulas National Marine Park, this tranquil beach town is surrounded by lush mangroves and tropical forest, making it a haven for nature lovers and those seeking a peaceful escape. The beach itself stretches for miles with soft golden sand and rolling waves, perfect for surfing, long walks, or simply soaking in the natural surroundings. What truly sets Playa Grande apart is its commitment to conservation. It's one of the most important nesting sites for endangered leatherback turtles in the world, and visitors can witness these incredible creatures during the nesting season from October to March. The local community is small, welcoming, and eco-minded, with a few charming restaurants, cafés, and surf shops sprinkled throughout. While it feels wonderfully off the beaten path, Playa Grande is just a short boat ride or drive from the lively town of Tamarindo, offering easy access to shopping, nightlife, and additional dining options. Whether you're here to surf, explore, or unwind, Playa Grande offers a rare blend of natural beauty, authentic local culture, and pura vida spirit. Getting Around: The nearest airport is Daniel Oduber Quirós International Airport (LIR), 37 miles away (approx. 1 hour 20 min by car). Driving time may vary with traffic. The villa has one parking space onsite. Taxis and shuttle services are available, but public transport is limited. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Communal pool - Private pool ### Internet - Available in the villa: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Dishwasher - Hob - Microwave - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 4 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 3 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Shower - Towels provided ### Entertainment - TV ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill ### Laundry - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Unit size: 1,500 square feet ## Similar properties ![Pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/116000000/115060000/115055500/115055418/316d31fa.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Villa Wahoo - Luxury 4BR Villa & Pool, Playa Grande Estates, 300m to the Beach Provincia de Guanacaste - Washer - Dryer - Air conditioning 10 Exceptional 1 review [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-19&endDate=2025-11-20&selected=115055418&PinnedHotelID=115055418&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/113000000/112770000/112763300/112763270/cec32258.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Casa Cadejo- Surf paradise in Playa Grande Playa Grande - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi 8.0 Very good 1 review [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-19&endDate=2025-11-20&selected=112763270&PinnedHotelID=112763270&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Sun-loungers, beach towels](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/116000000/115260000/115252800/115252757/31e3f673.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Amazing BeachFront, 3BR and 3.5BA, AC, great surfing!
