Photos and Description of the Playa Grande vacation estate rental
5 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, sleeps 10-12

Casa Muy Grande is a luxurious beachfront estate that once served as a small boutique hotel. The property is now privately owned and available as a weekly rental. This gorgeous villa offers all the amenities of a hotel with the serenity and seclusion of a private residence.

The main house boasts five large bedrooms, each with an adjacent bathroom, air conditioning, and small refrigerator. Each bedroom has its own private entrance, except the master bedroom, which is located on the second floor and features beautiful views from its private balcony. All of the first-floor guest rooms have a plasma flat-screen television. Among Casa Muy Grande's many amenities is a private pool, hot tub, large tiki bar, huge built-in BBQ and a fun-ball court.

The property is located directly on Playa Grande beach which is well known for its world class surfing and pristine, untouched coast-line. Of course, surfboards and boogie boards are available for your use during your stay.

The Costa Rican government has declared Playa Grande part of a national park (called Parque Marino las Baulas), placing restrictions on development in the area so all forms of wildlife are thriving along the beach and at Casa Muy Grande. Visitors are often awakened to the sound of monkeys swinging in the trees of this 2-acre private property. From late September until March, leatherback turtles swim to shore directly in front of the estate to nest and lay their eggs.

AMENITIES: Air conditioning and refrigerator in every bedroom. Phone and plasma flat screen TV with satellite channels. Full kitchen with dishwasher and cooking utensils provided. 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 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.

Other Activities: hiking, rainforest tours

When can I go back?!

5 of 5
Submitted: June 25, 2011 Stayed: May 2011
I just finished my first stay at Casa Muy Grande and I am already counting the days until I can go back! The house is incredible from the rotunda driveway with HUGE Palms, to a full on tiki bar with fun ball court and foosball table. The grounds keeper and his wife were pleasant, attentive and engaging despite our language barrier. From cooking amazing seafood dinners for our party, to shinning bright spotlights in the dark to guide us to the local bar, they were phenomenal! The house itself is incredible with full AC, pool, and plenty of space for everyone (we were a group of 10 guys). What's more is that the beach is picture perfect and never crowded. We surfed during the day and played beach soccer at dusk as the sunset! Pura Vita!

If you are looking for a vacation rental, Casa Muy Grande is the spot to be hands down.

This place blew my mind

When we pulled up to the entrance rotunda, the only thing I could think about was the movie Scarface. This place was amazing and the inside didn't disappoint either. Great pool area to relax in, great recreational facilitates, right on the amazing beach that is not too crowded, really a perfect spot. The staff was great, they prepared us a fresh seafood dinner that could rival big time restaurants back in the states. They were very friendly and helpful and even came out to play beach soccer with us. It's a little bit of a trek to Tamarindo but I think you would be hard pressed to find a better vacation rental in the area.

Just spent my second stay at Casa Muy Grande. Was here for 10 days with a bunch of friends. I usually don't write reviews but I was very impressed with how they managed to make a very nice place even nicer. The house and the grounds are in impeccable order, and several upgrades to the appliances (such as the AC) were made since I was there last. The tiki bar has been repaired and the property is wonderfully kept. Can't get a better location, and now you can't get better maintenance either. The groundsman, Jose and his wife Catalina, were absolutely amazing. They took care of our every need and kept the place spotless despite our best efforts to do the opposite. They really made us feel welcome, and were able to solve every problem/request that we has. Five stars all around.

Casa Muy Grande was Muy Fabuloso!!!

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!

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.
