Avis Amazing 5 bd/5 ba beachfront Villa Infinity pool with housekeeping

The property was in an excellent location and the pictures accurately represent the home and location. The service provided by the host, property manager, and others such as the pool service, housekeeper, and security were also great. Each person was personable and offered prompt replies to our communications. This all set the ground for a fabulous vacation for the 12 of us. We took our kids and grandkids and I can say every person, ages 2 through 76, thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The host, Mackenzie, went beyond to make sure our needs were met andmade perfect referrals such as for tours and transportation with Yellow Fin. Without hesitation we would go back again and will recommend this host and property to others. By the way, we had the personal chef for several meals and we were impressed with their skills and delighted with the food they served - fun and delicious!

I stayed at this property a total of five nights. There were 15 of us, ranging from 1 year old-64 years old. We had an great stay! You can tell the house went through a total renovation recently, and is very modern and aesthetically pleasing to the eye. Also very clean. We had chef services three times, all fantastic food. The chefs come on time and get straight to work as well as the cleaning staff. Jimmy, the property manager was our main source of contact. He was very responsive and quick to answer any questions or resolve any issues and that is the best you can ask for. The owners were very responsive as well. Great customer service. Would definitely recommend. And might I add what a beautiful location right on the beach. The house is located walking distance to restaurants. I would suggest renting a car or golf cart for easy transportation because the roads in the neighborhood are very uneven and rocky.

Beautiful and spacious! The pictures do not do it justice. Everyone was amazing to work with. Eleven of us stay at the property in July to celebrate my birthday. I worked with Melanie for weeks before my stay to plan events for my guest. When we arrived Jimmy was there to let us in and walk us through the extremely spacious villa. When we had last minute request Jimmy was a quick call away to resolve issue. In addition to event planning I worked with Melanie daily for additional groceries and last minute chef request. Whatever we needed, she was a text away. Thank you to Melanie, Jimmy, the Chef, sous chef and housecleaner for taking great care of us!!!! Pure vida, indeed ❤️❤️

I was blessed to be able to spend my 50th birthday at this property. We had such a wonderful time, and watching the sunsets every night from the house was magical. The location was perfect with many wonderful places to eat only a short walk away. The team at the house was spectacular making us feel very cared for. A huge shout out to Tomas, Janet and Juan Carlos. Make sure you get a massage from Janet. She had magical hands. Jimmy our chef, fed us beautiful breakfasts every morning. We could not ask for a thing more. My only complaint was the obnoxious security light in the back area. I realize it’s there for a reason but it would be nice to be able to turn it off. It obscures the view of the night sky and stars and shines into the bedroom on that side making it hard to sleep. Other than that, no complaints.

The property is in an amazing location. There were 11 in our party. 6 adults, 2- 9 year old's, 2- 6 year old's and a 19 month old. The kids had a blast at the beach, especially in the morning during low tide. Body surfing was great. It is also a short beach walk into town, which has a very good selection of restaurants. There are also several beaches in the area, that are worth visiting. The pool is as advertised and is refreshing. There are jets for a hot tub experience but we did not find how to turn on heat, if it was available. There are ample outdoor showers to wash away the sand., and ample beach towels. The property is worn and dated. The 5 bedrooms and 5 baths and AC in the bedrooms worked well. All bedrooms have king sized beds. The 5th upstairs bedroom is musty and dark and I would rate not that great. In a way the worn and dated was a pro as we had 5 children in our group. Tomas and his wife Janet do a great job cleaning the property. They were there daily. The kitchen is well stocked. We did a chef night twice and that worked out well. We would do that again. A fan blade on one of the porch fans broke off and flew across the patio.. Had one of my grandchildren been around when it happened, it could have been tragic. We left the fans off the the remainder of the stay. It also made us uneasy to use any of the interior fans. No inspection was done. Most of the lights in the fans are out and were not addressed during our stay. So the interior light is adequate but not great. If you are going to rent a golf cart don't wait. There is limited availability. If you rent a golf cart, there is also new marina near by to visit. There is also Uber service and taxi service in the area. My daughter and her husband and two children took Spanish lessons. There is a school nearby and runs from 8 until noon. It is very family friendly and they were very positive about the experience. The hosts directed us to Dervin and he handled all of our tours through his company, Yellowfin. He was outstanding and also managed some of our transportation. He is reliable, dependable, and his tour pricing seems fair compared to the prices posted on web sites. Jimmy, also directed to us by the hosts took care of our chef meals and follows up with Tomas on repairs, like the screens on the doors, that were ripped when we arrived. Jimmy will also pre shop your groceries.. We found that beneficial and one less thing we did not need to do when we arrived.

My husband, children, in-laws and I (11 in all) had a wonderful time. The home was perfect for our needs, and the on-site caretakers, Tomas and Janet, were wonderful. The location is beautiful--right on the beach, which provided many hours of enjoyment, along with the excellent swimming pool. Plenty of things to do nearby, along with very good restaurants. We would do it again anytime. We are not newbies to Costa Rica by any means, but this has been our favorite property and location so far. LM

Property was easy to rent. Eleven family members traveled from OR & WA in August 2022. The kids loved the pool & beach. Adults loved the views & easy access to bogey boarding. Restaurants nearby. Yellowfin provided 4 excursions & shuttle from & to airport. Would recommend their hospitality. Housekeeping was provided by Janet. Used Tomas to cook 2 meals. Chicken fajitas were tasty. Cows, birds, iguanas, lizards, a large black witch moth, friendly dogs & dragon flies kept us company in the patio. Distant Holler monkey screams early in the morning made us feel we were really in a tropical paradise. Sounds of surf crashing at times in front bedrooms will be missed. Weather was warm at times with occasional rain. Gelato at Porto Potrero was the best as well as Soda Marsell. Playa Potrero has some yummy reasonable restaurants - Gritanga & The Shack. Overall, we loved our stay at casa Corazon Del Mar. Sorry to hear home may add a 3rd story in March making this rental too large for our family needs. If you want a pool & almost a private beach, this is the place to go.

We stayed here for our annual family vacation. Our blended family of 10…myself and my husband and children ranging from 24-14. The house was perfect for our group. The pool and just a few steps walk to the beach were incredible. And Tomas and Janet were fantastic. We enjoyed 4 amazing meals cooked by Tomas and everyone in our group enjoyed an amazing poolside massage by Janet. This was truly the trip of a lifetime and we cannot wait to return!!!

This a wonderful property with an amazing setup with the pool in the back that is only steps away from the ocean! The sunsets are truly amazing as everyone else has commented. And while the furnishings themselves are starting to show some age, Janet and Tomas take really good care of it - and the guests while there! The location is perfect with restaurants nearby : we loved Hemingways, Las Brisas, and La Forkette. But don’t pass up the chance to have Tomas make dinner for your group while there - it was delicious! My husband absolutely loved his massage from Janet as well. The bedrooms are situated so that each couple (we had three couples) had privacy, and we had a huge table to eat and play cards as well as a great kitchen. I really appreciated that there were tissues in the house - rare for a rental, as well as plenty of toilet paper and paper towels. Janet cleaned each day so towels were always clean too! Chip was very informative and supplied us with our golf carts, which let us explore a bit and go to the grocery and restaurants (one of our party recently had knee surgery so he couldn’t walk a lot). The beach is wonderful to walk along and some of us walked every day! We felt spoiled and like we were in paradise!

My friends and I truly loved this place. When we arrived, Tomas, the house manager, met us in the driveway. He was super nice and gave us a quick tour. He checked on us every day. The house is a great set up for a group. The bedrooms are big and spread apart. They were fairly sound proof as well. Our early birds and night owls didn’t bother each other at all. The house is well stocked with everything you need for a relaxing stay. The pool/patio/beach are all nice and fairly private. The sunsets are incredible! The beach is very dog friendly and we occasionally had one stop by to say hi. We loved that! We had a spa day with Tomas’ wife, Janette. She is lovely and gives a great massage. There are lots of great restaurants within walking distance. They are dog friendly too! I think there is an issue with petty theft in the general area (not worse than any other places I’ve been though) so it was nice the house had a security guard patrolling at night. We felt totally safe and secure. I would stay here again in a heartbeat! I can’t think of a single negative thing!
