Location: Costa Rica < Central America

Car: recommended
Casa Muy Grande is located on Playa Grande in the Gunacaste region of Costa Rica. With its 3 miles of white sand, Playa Grande is one of the most beautiful beaches in Costa Rica. The beach and the bay of Tamarindo are part of the Marine National Park 'Las Baulas.' Monkeys are often found in the trees around the villa and leatherback turtles swim ashore to lay their eggs on the beach every year. Playa Grande is the location of some of the best surfing in the world. The area was made famous by the movie Endless Summer. You can surf directly in front of the house but beginners may want to walk down the beach to Tamarindo for the smaller waves. Tamarindo, the biggest nearby town, offers many shops and restaurants and has a very active nightlife. However, you don't need to go all the way to Tamarindo for excellent food and drinks as there are several delicious restaurants and bars right in Playa Grande, one even directly across the road from the villa.

From late September until March, leatherback turtles swim to shore directly in front of the estate to nest and lay their eggs.

Towels and linens provided. Washer and dryer in the laundry room. Private hot tub and private pool. Full-size tiki bar, fun-ball court, kayaks and surfboards located adjacent to the main house.

Casa Muy Grande was Muy Fabuloso!!!

Fedrock Denver, CO
Review Submitted: October 5, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
I spent a full week at this slice of paradise and would do it again and again and again. I need to break away from the rat race to purge the minutia that we all have a tendance to get caught up with and this was the perfect place to do it!

The residence was in terrific shape and location cant be beat. It had all of the ammentiies that you would get in the nicest hotel in the area without the crowds. Total privacy and security, just steps to the sand, and only minutes from great bars and restaurants; that is what CMG had to offer. I gladly accepted and will do so again. This is the perfect location for a romantic getaway or for the family. Bravo to the owners for finding this gem and making sure that it was the best that it could be.

I recommend it highly. Pura Vida!

Paradise Found

Review Submitted: August 14, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
I recently got back from a trip to Casa Muy Grande and have just booked a trip for the same week next year. We went down with five couples and had an amazing time. Not everybody knew each other before the trip, but the private rooms with the private entrances made for a really comfortable feel. I would not miss taking the kayaks out into the waves or a boat tour of the estuary....we saw a family of 20 monkeys!!! My favorite part of this house was staying in the jungle on the beach without sacrificing any of the luxuries of a top hotel. If you are looking for a place in the area I would not miss it......just dont tell too many people about it.

A Slice of Heaven!

Needing a Tan San Fran
Review Submitted: August 14, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2007
I have stayed at CMG several times in recent years, and cannot wait to return this Labor Day!

The location is flawless: a secluded beach that is a leatherback turtle sanctuary as well as having several surf breaks, while only a short drive/water taxi/estuary swim away from Tamarindo and the night life it offers. There are great beach walks and hiking from the estate's private rear beach access, if you can pull yourself away from the private pool and sun deck. Cantarana across the street is amazing for dinners, Bula Bula for "Siberian" frozen drinks after a hot day, and the best pizza in Costa is right down the road.

we played foose in our own personal bar, surfed with the boards and kayaks provided, and the caretakers were amazing. catering in a dinner with the seafood caught day-of is a must, as well as a massage or yoga lesson on the property to get as luxurious as possible. the location is also perfect for day trips to golf, surf breaks like Playa Havanas or Nosara, as well as Monte Verde (zip lining through the rain forest) and Arenal (to see the active volcano).

a perfect blend of rustic and regal!

costa rica traveller fort worth, texas
Review Submitted: July 27, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
We stayed at Casa Muy Grande for a week. It was fairly comfortable and the security was high, but the fact that all the bedrooms but the master had there entrances outside and had to be locked each time you went in and out of them, was a little inconvenient. We were always misplacing the keys and forgetting that they were locked and having to search for the keys. Itwoudl help tremendously to put locks on the doors that had codes, not keys.
The hot tub did not work at all and the tiki bar was dingy, the foosball table was totally rusted out and unusable. The ball court was peeling and not very usable also. We had some issues with one of the airconditioners and the ice makers, but the housekeeper was very attentive in getting these things looked at and repaired. It was clean and the pool and grounds were nice. There was no snorkeling equipment as stated, and the surf boards were unwaxed and had some damage on them. Just a little more maintenance on this property and it would be a great place to stay. Not worth the full price we paid for the week.
Owner's Response: I have to admit that I was very surprised to read this review! We never receive negative feedback even by personal email, not to mention on one of our listing websites!

Regardless, we have made many upgrades to the house over the past year. The funball court was powerwashed and repaired, the fooseball table was replaced, the hot tub has all new equipment and works wonderfully. The surf boards have been repaired and many new boards added. We created an outdoor dining area with a new BBQ, covered with its own tiki hut and teak outdoor dining table. All of the pool furniture has been upgraded. We added wireless internet. The tiki bar area has been completely redone top to bottom. And to top it off, we've hired new management that have been doing a great job at keeping us apprised of the house's condition.

We love our beautiful house and take the happinness of our guests very seriously. We are constantly looking for ways to improve and we continue to make many upgrades every year.

I encourage everyone to read the many reviews of Casa Muy Grande posted on the testimonial section of our website.
