Photos and Description of the Jaco vacation house rental
House, 3 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 2 Baths, (Sleeps 7-9)

Why stay in a hotel when you can stay in an oceanfront house with a private pool for less? The grounds are private and have a picturesque view of the ocean and surrounding hills. You will enjoy listening to the waves while having your morning coffee & spectacular sunsets at 'atardecer' in your cozy 'rancho.' At certain times of the year the beach in front can be very rocky, but you can walk a short distance down the beach to enjoy sandier beaches.

This home is great home for small or large groups. If you have a very large group, you can also rent my house next door that sleeps 9+ - VRBO #41740

The house is on the fringe of the small Fishing Village called Tarcoles that is less than an hour drive from the Int'l Airport, 25/30 minutes to Jaco, 20 minutes to Herradura & the Marriott Resort, 30 minutes to Hermosa, International Surfing Beach. Tarcoles Beach is the closest pacific coast beach from the San Jose airport.

The house has:

* A full kitchen, 3 bedrooms with a/c, and sleeps 6 people

* One good quality queen sized air mattress is also available

* Two bedrooms have double beds, and 1 bedroom with 2 twin beds. A crib is also available

* There are 2 bathrooms

* For large groups, you can also book the house next door, which sleeps 9+

* Cable TV, DVD/VCR player, washing machine

* HANDICAPPED FRIENDLY

LOCAL ATTRACTIONS: canopy tours, Manuel Antonio National Park, Carara Biological Reserve, horseback riding, fishing, surfing, whitewater rafting, crocodile safaris, bird watching tours, volcano and hot springs, golf, island boat tours, snorkeling, biking, hiking, and orchid plantations.

PROPERTY MANAGEMENT: The property manager, PATRI, speaks English and Spanish. She can help you arrange car rentals, transportation to/from the airport, and tours.

Why The Owner chose Jaco

Choosing this property plus Casa Cabo Alto next door afforded me and my family the experience of truly knowing what it is to live in Costa Rica.

You live around a Fishing Village, in fact we have fishermen living right beside the bungalow next door. Strike up a friendship with them and buy fresh fish off the boat early each morning!

Or walk or drive into Tarcoles and buy at the fish market!

What makes this house unique

Experiencing the culture, living and getting to know the locals, being given the opportunity to learn how to handline fish like a local, go snorkelling and even diving to get your lobster lunch which is cooked for you on a beach over a grill!

So many reasons to want to come here!

Nice Time

3 of 5
Submitted: April 17, 2013 Stayed: March 2013
This is older house so if you want a fancy new house don't stay here. WE had a great time and the pool was great to have. We spent hours by the pool. This was our fourth trip to Costa Rica. There are many nice beaches and walking trails near the house. Patri and staff are great. The pool is cleaned every day and the grounds every other day.We loved the sunsets by the pool every night. We were given the senior discount, so rare.

Rustic Beach Front Home

5 of 5
Submitted: January 29, 2013 Stayed: January 2013
The property in question met our needs perfectly. We were looking for a rustic beach home in a native Costa Rican neighborhood that could accomodate 6 people comfortably. This unit was just what we needed. We bought freshly caught fish from one of the neighbors as they returned from their nightly fishing trip. Falling asleep to the sound of the waves crashing on the beach was wonderful. Petri and her staff were very accomodating and helpful. We would like to return to this facility again next year for a month.

My wife and I rented this little 'cottage' with great hopes. Unfortunately we were disappointed for 3 reasons 1) there is a highway very close to the property with a long downhill slope and a curve at the bottom. In Costa Rica, the truckers use Jake Brakes to slow down, and they have them like I have never heard in Canada, or any where else in the world. You can expect that when you are trying to sleep or when you are sitting by the pool you will be blasted by the sound of the trucks. They run from 6 am to about 11 pm, but one will go by every hour during the night which will wake you up. 2) the location is very sheltered and it is HOT, but the problem is the main part of the house is not air conditioned and it has a steel roof. It is unbearably hot until the middle of the night, and we were there in November without a lot of sunshine, so I can't imagine what it is like in the sunny, hot season; and 3) the main river in Costa Rica that empties the sewage out of San Jose enters the ocean very close to this house, so the beach is dirty and the ocean is a muddy color with a very bad odor. Also, the pool was very cold and not very attractive. The bed was incredibly hard. The air conditioner in the bedroom was terribly loud and very old. It wasn't a vacation.

We got a good price on the rental, and we were planning on staying 5 nights. We left after the first night and received a refund of 1/3 of the rental. We moved further down the coast and found a fabulous 3 bedroom house, almost new, for only a few dollars more. I could not recommend this 30 or 40 year old cottage it unless you live in a very hot climate and are deaf.

Patri was very nice and I believe she was very disappointed that we were unhappy. She did her best to try to find us something else, but we wanted a place different than the other units she had available. We appreciated getting some refund.

THANK YOU

Submitted: May 1, 2012 Stayed: April 2012
We recently had the fabulous opportunity to travel to Costa Rica. There were 6 of us and we were all very pleased with the accommodations. We felt fortunate to have found such a warm and cozy place. Home away from home. The place was clean and had a welcoming feeling. The pool was an asset and used many times daily.
Right from the early stages of planning, Patri, the manager, was so very hospitable and more than willing to help us plan our holiday. She answers emails quickly and provides answers to questions. She does it all! From helping us book accommodations, book a vehicle, helping plan tours, buying groceries, to visiting and having a coffee with us. Patri takes the time to be certain the guests are comfortable and content. She made us feel secure about arriving in a country we had not visited in the past.
Jarra, the pool person, is a delight. We is very smiley and welcoming. He is wonderful and patient with us in exchanging languages.
Elbie and Santos were diligent about keeping the grounds and furniture clean.
We explored and enjoyed many of the local sites. The Crocodile Tour was interesting and we actually were able to touch a crocodile that was on the shore. The thrill of zip lining through the rainforest was exhilarating, The most exciting, enjoyable and yet relaxing was the day we spent with Gino with Tico Tours. We were lucky to have spent the day with Gino – jungle hiking, snorkelling, a lunch prepared by Gino from the fish we caught ourselves plus the lobster and oysters that he caught, all prepared on beautiful private white sand beach. Gino is very knowledgeable and can explain and teach anyone about the land, the animals, the people, and the ocean plus throw in some Spanish lessons. Supper was a delightful experience for Gino and his family invited us to their place, where Maria (Gino’s wife) cooked an authentic Costa Rica dinner. Excellent! What a fantastic day.
A visit to Outback Jack’s is worth the walk. The food is fabulous and Jack is an interesting character that will visit and share stories.
Be sure to enjoy your added guests of the visiting cats and dogs. They will adopt you and visit on a regular basis.
The sunset each night was magical and beyond words.
We all look forward to returning to this wonderful place and very much appreciate Patri and all she had done to make our stay in paradise an experience we will forever treasure.
