We handle the details: complimentary concierge, bilingual support, and flexible check-in. Ready to see it for yourself? Check the calendar and pick your dates. The Space: The panoramic ocean and mountain views are what you will remember the most. Floor-to-ceiling windows throughout the home frame the scenery: you'll wake up to it, cook with it in view, and enjoy natural light from the pool. LAYOUT & COMFORT The open-concept design connects the chef's kitchen (island seating for 5) with the dining table (seats 8) and living area. All four bedrooms have ensuite bathrooms, 1 king and queen beds, plenty of closet space, and those same floor-to-ceiling windows that fill each room with natural light. Clean linens, towels, soaps, and AC are included. The home comfortably fits 8 guests. OUTDOOR LIVING The saltwater pool is steps from the main living area. The BBQ deck has a sink and prep space for outdoor cooking. Poolside seating lets you spend the day outside without leaving the property. AMENITIES \- Saltwater pool with mountain and ocean views \- Outdoor BBQ kitchen with sink and prep area \- In-unit washer and dryer \- Dedicated workspace with wifi \- Three parking spaces \- All bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms YOUR CONCIERGE (COMPLIMENTARY) We handle the planning so you don't have to: \- Transportation arrangements (rental cars, shuttles, private drivers) \- Tour bookings (catamaran, surfing, fishing, zip lining, ATV tours) \- Private chef services \- In-villa massages and spa packages \- Bilingual support throughout your stay Guest Access: Whether you prefer a personal greeting or a self-check-in, we've got you covered. Our goal is to make your stay as comfortable and stress-free as possible, so choose whichever option suits you best. Even if you choose self-check-in, we are still a call or text away to help you with anything you may need. Your satisfaction is our top priority. The Neighborhood: Although it’s on the map for tourists, Playa Potrero still keeps its charm as a 1950s beach town. This vibrant, oceanside community has popular nightlife and restaurants, all within walking distance of the property. And, a two-minute walk away is the Costa Rican Sailing Center, where you can kayak, sail, and enjoy beachfront dining and bonfires all night long. POINTS OF INTEREST: \* 15-minute beachfront walk to Flamingo Marina, offering high-end retail and dining \* 6-minute drive to Playa Flamingo, a stunning, local beach \* 14-minute drive to Las Catalinas, a beach community with shopping and luxe eateries \* 30-minute drive to Diamante Eco Adventure Park, a wildlife sanctuary with zipline experience Getting Around: The nearest airport is Tamarindo (TNO) Commuter Airport 30-minute drive and Daniel Oduber Quirós International (LIR), 21 miles (34 km) away, about a 1-hour drive. Times may vary based on traffic. Public buses and shuttles are available, with services to nearby towns like Santa Cruz taking about 2 hours. Other Things to Note: Access: A 4x4 vehicle is necessary; the home is up a mountain road. The views make the drive worthwhile, but plan accordingly. Neighboring construction: Work is ongoing at the adjacent property. We're transparent about this because we want you to know before booking. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Communal pool - Private pool ### Internet - Available in the villa: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 4 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 5 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Shower - Towels provided ### Entertainment - TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Office ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Concierge services - Iron/ironing board ### Things to do - Cycling nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Theme park nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Garden - Unit size: 2,368 square feet ## Similar properties ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/102000000/101070000/101060400/101060396/2c83d5ca.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Luxurious Ultramodern Property with Private Suites, Infinity Pool, and Sweeping Ocean and Mountain Views Las Catalinas - Pool - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-31&endDate=2026-01-01&selected=101060396&PinnedHotelID=101060396&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/115000000/114540000/114539100/114539079/w1179h785x0y4-32ac169f.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Beach Villa las Catalina’s Las Catalinas - Pool - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-31&endDate=2026-01-01&selected=114539079&PinnedHotelID=114539079&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/111000000/110090000/110086300/110086244/457cb142.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Calle La Ronda 18 at Las Catalinas Las Catalinas - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Free Wi-Fi [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-31&endDate=2026-01-01&selected=110086244&PinnedHotelID=110086244&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach nearby](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/117000000/116580000/116576200/116576191/b6773869.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Casa Aurora with Private Patio & Pool Playas Del Coco - Pool - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-31&endDate=2026-01-01&selected=116576191&PinnedHotelID=116576191&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Smart TV, offices](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/112000000/111930000/111928600/111928506/250bf36c.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Villa Sunset - Your Sunshine Escape!

Beautiful, clean, well stocked and safe. It was on top of a small mountain. It was a 10 minute drive UP the mountain on a very nice dirt road. I recommend you arrive in the daytime to feel comfortable with the drive. The yard was incredible for photos! ##### Tamara N. Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2023 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### A guest from , 18 Apr 2024 #### Our Stay at Casa Pacifico Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our stay at CP was a mixed experience. The house is a beautiful, modern house with great spaces, furniture, and a well-equipped kitchen. there was plenty space for our family of 6\. The access road to the house is mostly dirt and has a lot of holes. We were fine without a 4x4 but I will strongly recommend one. What you get in exchange is beautiful views! The not so good: When we arrived at the house the pool was dirty. There was dirt and debris at the bottom of the pool and the water surface was cloudy. I sent a message to the hosting company with pictures and got a response saying the will help us the next day which was disappointing since the pool should have been swim ready. After they cleaned the pool it was still too dirty to swim in. They cleaned it again the following day and we could finally use it on our very last night. I sent several messages to the company asking if they will consider providing compensation for not having access to the pool for most of our stay but never got a proper response. This is perhaps the best house we have stayed at. Communications could be better and a bit more personal. ##### A guest from , This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tatiana R., Portland, Or 4 Sept 2023 #### Breathtaking views Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Beautiful house that looks even better in real life than the pictures. The house has everything you need to enjoy your stay. House was clean, comfortable beds, lots of room. The house located on the top of the mountain with breathtaking views all around. Property manager was extremely helpful and professional, he helped us book few activities as well as navigation in the area, recommendations for best places to visit. We will come back. ##### Tatiana R.
