Pura Vida in Paradise

This property is simply amazing. It doesn’t get any closer to paradise than walking a few steps to your own private beach then falling asleep to the crashing waves each night. Robert was a truly exceptional host, always responsive and helpful in every way. We can’t wait to plan our next trip to Costa Rica!

This property is in a stunning location! Robert, the owner, lives in the adjoining house and is incredibly helpful, kind and generous in giving you privacy and assistance where required. The location causes some challenges to the house with rust/salt water/dampness but it was also the time of year, and not avoidable by the host. I would say it’s greatly suited for a couple looking to enjoy an absolutely gorgeous view and location. It’s close to many other amenities and is fully equipped with anything you may need. Add this place to your list if visiting Dominical!

We were looking for a quiet beachside getaway and this place delivered! There are no neighbors within view and we saw maybe 10 people on the beach over three days. When the tide is low you can walk the beach to Dominical for groceries or to dine out. We mainly cooked and made good use of the gas grill. The kitchen, bath, and outdoor patio were well stocked. I didn’t realize one of the beds is in the main kitchen area, but we didn’t mind the set up. There were plenty of beach amenities provided and the soaking tub is quite nice to sit in. We did a load of laundry before we hit the road which really helped us keep our bags light. The host lives in adjoining home, but you’d hardly know it and he was very helpful before, during, and after our stay.

Amazing Stay

Steps from the beach, we fell asleep to the waves crashing and woke to them as well. The kids couldn’t get enough of the warm water and surf. The beach was beautiful as well with large rocks and cliffs due south, and Dominical beach proper was just north. The accommodations were as expected. 2 queen beds and very comfy. AC worked great. Only downside is exiting the driveway is pretty blind so you really need to be ready for passing traffic. But the house and stay were great. Landlord was super nice as well. We would use again!

Love the beach? Stay here!

Great location in an ideal spot for surfing, boogy boarding and long walks on a very flat beach at low tide. Robert is very responsive and helpful. We really appreciated not having to deal with the wet towels, sheets and garbage on our last day. I’ve stayed at some places that required us to basically do most of the cleanup before leaving and still pay a hefty cleaning fee. Staying here was a wonderful Christmas holiday.

Beautiful Secluded Place!

The house is set right on the beach and is very private! Easy walk to Domincal either by beach or by road. The accommodations are exactly as described and are basically new. The beach is magnificent, the deck, hot tub, and outside shower are great. Whitney, the owner, is very knowledgeable about the area and directed me to several great restaurants and local activities. I would highly recommend this place for a couple or single guest and will definitely be back!
