Farhad M. | Apr 2025
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 loved this place. It is comfortable, it's very well equipped, the staff we met were lovely (especially Uriel), very peaceful. It was great to be able to step off our deck into the pool. The private hot tub was very much enjoyed. The decor is beautiful with lots of little touches that made it homey.

Where is Playa Hermosa, Puntarenas?

While there are two Playa Hermosa beaches in Costa Rica, with one in Guanacaste, Puntarenas's Playa Hermosa rests along the country's west coast and is about 3 miles south of Jacó. 

Things to do in Playa Hermosa, Puntarenas

Playa Hermosa, Puntarenas is known for its ideal surf and stunning jungle views. While the waves are not gentle enough for swimming, there’s plenty of scenery to enjoy with a stroll along the sand. The area attracts surfers from all over the world and is host to the Quicksilver International Surfing competition every August. 

You’ll find a small collection of shops, bars, and restaurants in town, which allows the area to retain its remote and commercial-free atmosphere. If you’re looking for a day in the city, Jacó is only 3 miles away, bustling with activities and nightlife.

If hanging loose isn’t your thing, no problem. Playa Hermosa is also just a 45-minute drive from Manuel Antonio National Park, which is well worth the trip. The 7,000-acre stretch of land is one of the most popular spots in Costa Rica for its guided trails, breathtaking views, jungle animals, and four beaches for swimming, snorkeling, and sunbathing.
