Recent Puntarenas guest reviews

Our stay was incredible! Carlos was very helpful and the house was great. Everything was as good as promised…thanks!

This is a beautiful home! It's clean and it was thoughtfully constructed, but VERY difficult to find and unfortunately, there were no written directions - only maps & waze, so we rode around an additional 30 mins trying to get there. The master bath had a defective & weak rain shower head so while the bathroom itself, was nice, spacious and well-designed, showers weren't the best. In the end, this really is a lovely home and we had a good experience. If these few things are addressed, the experience can be amazing for future guests and we would be happy to return!

We love the south end of the beach and this is a great condo with an excellent view. The balcony allows for relaxing while enjoying the view and sunsets. The pool is just enough for cooling off and is shallow, so perfect for any little ones.
