House vacation rentals in Barranca

Overall great stay and comfortable for our group. However some cautionary items to be aware of. The driveway to reach to the top of the property is quite steep, and in the rain the car skidded and wouldn’t get to the top of the hill. Need to have a vehicle if you’re going in and out with luggage. Good bit of wildlife you will encounter in the rooms and bathroom. There is only a hot water heater in the main bathroom.

This is such a beautiful, comfortable, and clean home with wonderful views. We spent 6 nights exploring Atenas, and this home is convenient to town and several other attractions. The hostess has a book for guests with great suggestions for what to do and see while in Atenas.

Great location, a short walk from the beach. Spacious bedrooms and living area. Maud is a very considerate and accommodating host.

Great location. About 30 minutes to the beach, 2 hr drive to the volcano. However it was closed due to it being active when we were there. Rescate Wildlife Rescue was a nice last minute add to our trip. Great place to see local wildlife.

Todo muy lindo y mi familia disfrutó mucho. Es la tercera vez que vamos a la casa y siempre la pasamos super bien.

We absolutely loved our stay. The 15 minute walk to the beach and restaurants was easy and always full of adventures. The backyard is an oasis where you never knew what to find. We watched groups of monkeys hang out. A sloth chill for the day. Macaws 🦜 fly by and endless amounts of hummingbirds feed on the foliage around. It was such a peaceful yet convenient location that made us not want to leave.

Lovely place. As someone who used to live in Atenas I can’t imagine a better place to stay and experience it. Beautiful views, great pool and porch, big bedroom, hot water, and everything is spotless. Edward is a good guy and leaves you a paper with everything you need - contacts for taxis, restaurant recommendations, etc. He knows the area well anything you need just text him. I can’t wait to come back. Thanks Edward!

Amazing! No complaints what so ever, the house was great, the view was amazing, and colby was very helpful when it came to recomendations! Would recomend this stay for anyone wanting to visit the area, super easy drive to Jaco as well!

Awesome beach house. House was clean and very spacious. It is Inside a safe community with security and there is a local restaurant about a 10 minute walk away which you can order local food from which was delicious. Host was very helpful with any concerns and had great recommendations.

Our stay here was amazing! Chris and Hollie were extremely responsive throughout our entire stay and provided great recommendations for local restaurants, activities, etc. We highly recommend a 4x4 if available for the drive and enjoyed the scenic views along the trip up the mountain. The house is perfectly designed with modern features and everything you need to ensure you feel right at home. The back porch was incredible for morning coffee and enjoying the views of the beach and jungle, while listening and seeing the wildlife surrounding us. We were extremely comfortable during our stay and enjoyed opening up the doors at night to let the cool ocean breeze pass through. What makes this place extra special is Chris and Hollie. We enjoyed getting to know more about them, the property, their vision for future projects, and you can see their genuine joy for hosting guests. They were readily available when asking questions and made sure we were comfortable. Thank you for a great trip!

Esteban fue muy atento, la casa es encantadora, tiene absolutamente todo lo necesario para una estadía agradable, la ubicación es muy privada el ambiente es muy relajante rodeada de vegetación y árboles, mi familia disfruta mucho la piscina sin duda volvería.

Tuvimos una excelente estadía en esta propiedad. Todo estaba tal cual se mostraba en las fotos, muy limpio y cómodo. Mi familia la pasó genial y Jose, el anfitrión, fue súper atento y amable en todo momento. ¡Recomendadísimo!

Oscar was an amazing host. He went above and beyond what I expected. He was flexible, understanding and accommodating. His home was cozy and made you feel like you are living like a local. Bakery and shop near by, little play area within walking distance. Our kiddos loved the backyard area and the place to play inside. Garage to park vehicle was roomy and the place was very secure. Loved the weather at night, although it did get a little hot during the day. Thank you so much to Oscar for the very comfortable stay!

This Airbnb is absolutely magical. The views are stunning and Victoria is such a gracious host. She and her husband went out of their way to make me feel at home and make sure I was getting full use of the amenities. Everything was so comfortable and thoughtful. And their property has some of the best sunsets I’ve ever seen! Couldn’t recommend more!

From the first time meeting Mira & Michaela (the owners) we could feel how much they truly care about their guests and their surroundings. A beautiful touch was having the lovely staff deliver breakfast to us that is made by the owners. Each morning we got to sample something different and all of it was absolutely delicious and beautifully presented; this was. a real treat for us and so helpful especially for a shorter stay. We loved waking us to the sounds of the jungle. The grounds were being shaped and groomed while we were there and visually this place is very special. Thank you both for your wonderful hospitality and genuine care.

We enjoyed our stay immensely. Vera left nothing undone or to chance. Regardless of your preferences, she has thought of it and has taken care of it right down to basil growing in the window. It is the best place to stay for your jumping off place to Latin America. She speaks English to help you get over the rough spots on your pigeon Spanish. The workout area is wonderful to get the muscles working again after a winter of little exercise. The location up the hill is cool and pleasant, close to the town of Atenas but also close to the jungle where a flock of toucans came flying through the trees close to the deck. The neighborhood is very safe. Yes, we would do it again if we got the chance but she gets booked early and often.

Geweldige locatie met een waanzinnig uitzicht en de hangbank op veranda was helemaal perfect!!

Beautiful house that is exactly as described. The house is clean, thoughtful, very well appointed, and also very private. We had no trouble at all finding it, and our check-in was very easy. Andres and his sister are perfect hosts. The hot tub is brand new and absolutely wonderful. Perfect rating from me.

Fue una excelente experiencia en la casa, tuvimos ciertos problemas con el aire acondicionado y nos resolvieron en el mismo día, la piscina y la casa muy cuidada, incluye muchas cosas en la parte de la cocina y los baños, sin embargo como sugerencia nada más sería tener en cuenta poner sillas para broncearse, fuera de eso todo estuvo súper bien

Casa Baru is a beautiful home and a perfect location for accessing the beach and many great restaurants. When we walked in the door my kids said, “This looks like a celebrity’s house!”. The outdoor space is beautiful and serene and indoors is spacious and comfortable. Juan was super responsive to any questions we had and he had great local recommendations for restaurants. I highly recommend this beautiful home and Juan as a host!

My family and I enjoyed the place very much! It is insanely beautiful, house decor is so unique and very comfortable and friendly people! The only one thing I would say is that in the House photos looks like there’s rooms outside however those are extra cabins in the same property(reserved separately) This home is only 3 Bedrooms, each bedroom has a bathroom which is so nice!

We we’re surprisingly delighted after last minute reservations!!! Thank you🌷

We loved Pablo's place, especially the beautiful plants inside and out. We loved the area and found 2 great restaurants in the short time we had to spend there. The bed was super comfy. It was a perfect place to stay the night before catching our flight the next day. We'll definitely stay here again when we come back!

I cannot say enough about this place! If you are looking for a peaceful escape, this is the place. The pictures don’t do it justice. It is amazing and would not hesitate to book here again. I will absolutely miss mornings on the deck watching the sun come up and listening to the river trickle by. The hosts were great and really helped with recommendations. Seriously. Book this gorgeous place. Only note for folks considering this location - the two bedrooms are on the lower level with separate outside entryways. Was great for us but may not work for everyone.
