First of all when we got there looking at the accommodations, every room had its own full bathroom. Three floors of amazing and we filled the entire place. I think our group loved the pool/beach/patio area the best because we could all be together and when someone wanted to rest it was n reason to stop the party because everyone had their own space. 24 family and friends and we enjoyed every bit of our time together. Some of us did excursions while some passed on some. The horseback riding on the beach was amazing and the chef prepared amazing food for us. We could walk to the stores near the hotel and sometimes grab an uber to Jaco. Either way was very convenient. Some of us went on a fishing excursion which they brought back for us all to enjoy and the zip lining was amazing. Our host was amazing as was all the staff. Very fun time and well worth it, ![Horseback Riding on Our Beach!!](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ac788413-1611-42d2-8c6d-7748da181462-1753066004921.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Waves were amazing.](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/86689595-e3bf-4d77-8086-5f97f1995c8f-1753066083164.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Fishing Boat Excursion](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0ccbd436-127a-42ec-a478-b950ed545297-1753066150235.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Ahhhhh ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/29f82972-305f-455e-a632-d5beaccc7fc2-1753066183312.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Laci D.

Every detail far exceeded my high expectations. From communication, to planning excursions for our guests, to onsite meals and celebrations, this was beyond perfect for our special occasion. There were between 18-21 of us onsite at all times, and everyone had their own beautiful casita to call home as well as the comfortable shared spaces to create lifetime memories together. The beach is incredible, the culture is invigorating, and the people feel like family. Look no further and make HBH your Costa Rican destination! ##### Meighan N.

And that everyone had their own room and bathroom when we were all getting ready to go out at one time was perfect. Host Julie was great in answering all our questions before and during our booking. She helped us with all of our transportation needs to and from the airport and anytime we were headed out and was great help in booking excursions. Was really impressed with her staff as there was always someone there 24 hours a day to help with any of our needs. They were all very friendly and welcoming. We were a family of 25 spread out from infants to old adults and there was plenty of space for all of us to be there together. I would highly recommend this place for your group get together. ##### Duane L.

The house, pool and beach were even more stunning in person. We had a group of 26, ages 6-75 and this property was perfect. We had access to the kitchen to cook some dinners and were able to hire chefs as well. The location is great, right by markets and tasty restaurants, easily walkable. The true magic of this property however, is the resort team. Julie, Wilber, Juan, Gaby, Dixon and the others, are who made this perfect vacation so special. From setting up transportation and meals (we had one dinner and all the breakfasts cooked), booking excursions, and the meaningful conversations. They genuinely wanted us to have the best time. We left feeling like we have friends in Hermosa Beach, and we can’t wait to go back. ##### Megan V.

The Hermosa Beach House was the perfect place for our family to celebrate our mom’s birthday. From the moment that we booked with Julie, we felt like we were in good hands, and boy did that end up being an understatement! She was always available to answer our questions, arrange activities for us from yoga, massages, horseback, riding on the beach, a monkey tour, the day at Manuel, Antonio National Park, a hike, a special birthday dinner, fire show, and incredible homemade fresh meals enjoyed outdoors, looking at the ocean. This is a wonderful destination for a large group who wants a clean spacious house with lots of outdoor living with spectacular scenery and amazing sunsets. If you are looking to experience a laid back, casual, local surf town and get a more authentic experience then you would get at a resort, then is the place to go. We will definitely be back! ##### Joanne B.

Julie and her staff were absolutely amazing…helping us with five separate transports to and from the airport along with making some amazingly delicious meals. Each staff member was accommodating and gracious. Her son Jason helped organize numerous tours and activities, and for a group of our size…trying to get everyone to figure out a plan was no easy task. Each activity arranged was special and memorable. The entire stay was a dream. The proximity to the ocean trumps all else. While it is not a swimming beach, watching the waves and surfers made up for that. The pool was kept pristinely clean everyday. The outdoor seating was perfect for 20 and very desirable to hang around. It was a trip none of us will forget. Thank you to Julie, Jason, Juan, Kyler, Willie, Wilbur and everyone else who made us all feel safe, welcome and special! ##### Genevieve S.

The property is about 2hrs away from SJO Airport so prepare for the journey but it’s all worth it! The sunset alone is worth the drive! The property is nestled right on the black sand beach just outside of Jaco. The staff and owner are extremely helpful with all your needs; from decorating for your theme parties to washing your clothes after the ATV ride! Julie was so helpful setting up transportation for us no matter what we wanted or where we went. The only drawback was all the rooms aren’t technically under one roof. All except the top floor for have external doors to enter from the outside. Each room as at least 2 beds and most have fridges and microwaves. Each room has its own bathroom which was great! The top floor is a separate 3bdrm apt with living room, kitchen and dining area. No biggie for us. We can’t wait to go back! Thank you Julie for helping make my 50th birthday the best one yet! ##### BlaZe T.

From the moment we arrived, the warmth and hospitality of the house host and staff set the tone for a truly memorable experience. What truly elevated our stay was the exceptional service provided by the dedicated staff. The house host, in particular, went above and beyond to ensure our every need was met. From seamless check-in to personalized recommendations for local attractions, her attention to detail was impeccable. We also opted for the meal options, which added so much ease to our trip. The food was fresh and delicious. Moreover, Julie and her staff effortlessly handled arrangements for excursions, taxis and airport transfers, making our stay stress-free and enjoyable. Their local knowledge and connections allowed us to explore Playa Hermosa and its surroundings with ease, creating a well-rounded and fulfilling experience. In conclusion, Hermosa Beach House is not just a place to stay; it's a destination that promises relaxation and unparalleled hospitality. Whether you seek a family vacation, or a retreat with friends, this hidden gem offers an unforgettable escape. Our heartfelt thanks to Julie and the wonderful staff for making our stay truly exceptional. We can't wait to return! ##### Christina K. Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Char H. 22 Jan 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy Disliked: Location #### COULD BE GREAT… BUT JUST OK This is a beautiful location, right on the beach with massive potential. However, at the price of 14K for a week, it is hard to overlook the many deficiencies. This is one of those places where the longer you stay the less you like it, and that mostly comes down to level of service, and a lack of reinvestment in the property. We loved the huge pool and spent most of our time there. We didn’t love how difficult it was to get the staff to clean our rooms or freshen our towels, the overpriced personal chef recommended by Julie, or the random friends of Julie’s wandering through the property to use the outdoor shower or do yoga on the lawn (with our children and valuables lying about). Most of the interior is showing it’s age and somewhat shabby. Peeling paint, mold on the ceilings, toilets that wouldn’t flush, showers that wouldn’t turn on consistently, a broken oven, and a poorly stocked upstairs kitchen were just a few things we noticed. Overall, the experience was just OK and wasn’t worth the price when compared to alternatives. We enjoyed our time but won’t be back. ##### Char H.

They arranged excursions and transportation for my group of 20 for a business retreat. The staff was extremely helpful and very accommodating. Even when we had an issue, they immediately corrected it and went above and beyond to make it right. Beach and property are great. There were lots of common areas to hang out in or have meetings. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/982b43d3-c9fe-4e51-9d14-62bad0e0aba1-1748632653166.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/379d145e-e985-401a-97af-d5f4a582fb52-1748632661515.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2bcb523c-ab95-4ced-adad-dc783a57e7ad-1748632661063.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/b523b37f-08fa-4c84-91df-03d9f70c043e-1748632671471.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Nathan F.

Our wedding ceremony was magical. This place is the perfect setup for an event or a much needed relaxing vacation.
