Hotel vacation rentals in Central America

It's a beautiful, quiet place that has everything you need to have a good time. It's special for relaxing

Overall, this place was very cool! For us it was just a quick stop the night before our flight, but you could definitely stay there and enjoy the pool and property for a few days. It's 5 stars for staying in a cute little bungalow (not 5 stars like a resort. I'm not saying this as a negative just clarifying as I feel there is a difference). Bed was super comfy!! Good restaurants are about a 30 minute drive. The property was wonderful and gated and felt safe, but the overall area where it's located did not seem awesome. You probably aren't walking anywhere from here, but as long as you don't mind the drive then it's fine. The only semi negative thing I noticed upon arrival (I suppose the pictures made it clear and I just didn't take note), was that there is no where to all sit and hang out inside. The kitchen table has 2 chairs. If you have 4 people and wanted to all eat there, 2 would be standing, or sitting on a bed. Michelle was fantastic as far as communication and suggestions!!

We absolutely loved staying here. I think I could live here! It’s so peaceful and such a great place to relax. The staff were so friendly and it was very convenient to have our laundry done or lunch delivered on days when my husband was out with the car and I couldn’t go to get lunch, while working. Would stay here again!

Fun location. Felt safe and relaxing

This was an incredible place to spend two nights at. We were welcomed with a hot/iced chocolate drink and a chocolate sampler, which really set the stage for the rest of our time. The cocoa farm + chocolate making tour were fantastic, as were the breakfast and dinners, spa area, and proximity to Rio Celeste. What a great way to wrap up our trip!

Gorgeous place close to the beach and park entrance. We enjoyed our A/C room and the beautiful jungle surroundings. We visited three restaurants close by, a vegan spot for a yummy lunch, hornitos for the best empanadas ever!! And Jafa for ice cream. If you’re on the local bus don’t get off on the highway and pay 3000 colones for a taxi, there is a stop just 800 meters away from the Airbnb. If you’re on the bus that stops at the big station we’d recommend paying for a taxi as it’s a 30 minute walk.

Wonderful place! Ideal location and super helpful staff. The restaurant was very expensive though. Massage on the dock was exceptional as were the staff and the excursions. Swim with manatees!

Claudine is a sweet soul. She was very kind. She met us outside of the property as we arrived after dark. She showed us to our room. She invited us to breakfast in the am and we took her up on it. Such a beautiful setting and yummy breakfast she prepared. We loved the place and Claudine! Great stay!

My friends and I feel so lucky to have found BAUMA for our stay in La Fortuna. It didn’t disappoint. We loved having our own rooms with a common space to interact. The pool was a wonderful bonus. The landscaping was lush and luxurious. And we loved our view of Arenal. The interior was well-appointed, and spotlessly clean. We loved all of the poolside lounge furniture. The beds were comfortable, and we appreciated the AC in the bedrooms. BAUMA is half a kilometer from a small grocery store and several restaurants. The prime location near hot springs, the waterfall, the town, and key sites could not have been better. Communication with the host was excellent, and the staff onsite was helpful and friendly. BAUMA is offered at a great price point, less expensive than nearby resorts while offering luxury accommodations.

Very pleased with the service and attention from the host. The place is very nice, the rooms and common areas are all very complete. Highly recommended

Front desk was absolutely amazing they were purely sweet and made my friend and I feel like we were all friends. Extremely peaceful and relaxing . Staff was outstanding. Definitely exceeded my expectation.

Wish I could give more than five stars! This place is incredible. Didn’t realize when I booked it it’s actually a small resort. Wish we could have stayed longer. Property is beautiful! We sat on our porch and watched monkeys playing in the trees! Has a nice pool, hot tub, padel court, basketball court. All staff were just wonderful. Husband had a great massage at the spa. Loved this place!

Everything about this Airbnb is exceptional, both the property and surrounding views. The staff were super accommodating and made us feel very comfortable. The food was amazing and service was excellent. Granada is very close and this Airbnb completed a fairytale weekend for us. Definitely a 10/10.

Messaging with Patrick to book was prompt and clear. Sandra and Maggie, property managers, make sure you arrive safely and will help you with anything! It was my first time in Costa Rica and I was travelling solo. I felt safe and the room was very comfortable. The pool is very well cared for and clean of debris - I took several dips. Since there are not many rooms it is very tranquil and not crowded. Cannot express how good the coffee is and the breakfasts is lovely. I had a great time!

There were two of us for 3 nights in a chic bungalow in the Satta Lodge. Brian contacted us briefly in advance on WhatsApp to give us all the information. The property is easy to find with Google Maps/Waze. Everything is very nicely designed and furnished. In the open lobby you can relax, play or drink a cocktail :) There is also a very good breakfast freshly prepared every day. All in all, a great experience that I can definitely recommend.

We had a very relaxing long weekend in this wonderful place. Peggy was very nice, she offered us fruit in the morning and was very kind!

We spent a few nights at Ecocoon, and wow, what an unforgettable experience. Marina and Karl, the hosts, are incredibly kind and welcoming. From the moment we arrived, we felt right at home, just surrounded by pure nature, with monkeys, squirrels, and colorful birds all around. 🐒🦜 The place itself is truly unique. Everything is built creatively and with so much love. What they’ve managed to create here in just four years is honestly impressive. The vibe is peaceful, grounded, and full of thoughtful details. You can relax in the sauna, take a refreshing ice bath, or chill out in one of the many cozy spots. My personal favorite was the net under the swing, I could lie there for hours just listening to the jungle sounds. Our room was right next to the pool, super clean and spacious. The staff were really friendly, and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook our own meals. Overall a place I would definitely would came back to!

Huge house with great views of a private beach and ocean. Wish the house actually had a 4th room available, but still plenty of living areas that could be used for sleeping, so it’s not a big deal. On site is Farley, the assistant who was very attentive and helpful with information during our stay. Shout out to him for swooping in like a super hero onto our ferry leaving the island to hand us a lap top charger my son left in the house. The ferry was literally pulling out of the dock and he needed to jump off before it departed. He came out of nowhere, said “here you left this” and then off he went haha. Wish I could have tipped him more. Also the host had arranged golf cart rental to be brought to the home which was also very convenient. I would recommend staying here.

Cindy and her husband José Mario are amazing, as was their Airbnb. It's a super comforting and peaceful place, super private, clean, tidy and surrounded by nature, cold weather and full of energy. Cindy and Don José Mario's service was incredible, great hosts, very nice people, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND it, I would come back as often as possible!

This house is completely unique and indescribable. It is in the most beautiful natural/manicured yard with sloths, howler monkeys, agoutis, birds, geckos, and lizards right outside the windows. The house itself is absolutely beautiful, clean, and so completely crazy. The layout is totally random, but somehow it all just works. The one drawback is that the obvious kid’s bedroom is way far away from the upstairs rooms, and my kids (9 and 11) were fine, but younger kids might be scared down there by themselves. A great beach was an easy walk down the main road, and town was nearby. I highly recommend this house!

Cara's ecolodge is an amazing place to stay. You are immersed in nature and it's incredibly peaceful there. The waterfall and the river on the property are a huge plus and we enjoyed them both very much. The caretakers and Cara are super friendly and Doña Luz's food down the street was delicious. We wished we could have eaten her meals everyday of the trip! Couldn't recommend this place more!

We adored our stay at this boutique hotel! Everything was perfect. The staff first of all was kind, welcoming and very helpful. They helped with whatever we needed. The location, right next to Bodhi Tree Yoga Resort, made it easy to go for yoga/pilates/spa, ect - 1min walk. The pool area is relaxing! I will definitely come back to this place if in Nosara.

Look no further! This is the place!! If you're looking for a private paradise, it's the NAIA Miravalle. Not only is this place absolutely beautiful, it's secluded, safe, and staffed with a team that is just as amazing as it's views. I have never been anywhere so accommodating. The service is unmatched. The rooms are clean and well decorated. Some guests reviews mention hot water issues, but that wasn't our experience at all! The restaurant menu is surprisingly full of fresh choices and everything is delicious!!! We literally ate something different every day and had time to double back on some of our favs. Please keep in mind it is secluded, so pay close attention to directions if you're driving. You are also in humid weather. It rained daily from 2am-4am, by 6am you had clear skies and sun. You are also surrounded by lots of vegetation. Though very beautiful and breathtaking taking, it is home to lots of insects, sand crabs, and birds. If you don't bother them, they won't bother you

we really enjoyed our stay, beautiful house and surroundings, and above all a fantastic staff that will make you feel at home
