7 Reviews of Property 319806 In Playa Grande, Costa Rica

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.

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.

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!
