About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Sunset House - Private Pool - Beautiful Views - Amazing Value- Early check-in

Prices have been slashed about 25% to offset your higher food and energy bills. Also, if possible, we'll let you check in at noon rather than 4pm so you can have a full day when you arrive. Early check-in requires no rental the night prior to your day of arrival.
We call our place the 'Sunset House' because the sunsets from the master bedroom balcony are spectacular. You will want to reserve a time every evening to enjoy the fabulous glow. For the money, you won't find a better place!
One note, we have a custom home in a residential area of all custom homes and people live there full time. Please respect our friends. Extra loud music and big parties are not allowed.

We have recently updated many amenities in the house. We are not in downtown Playa Coco, but in Altos de Cacique on a cliff overlooking the town and Coco Bay. No worries about noise or mosquitos. Our private development is between Coco and Playa Hermosa.

We are certain you won't find a better value anywhere. We have a quality 2200 sq ft house with prices better than local quality hotels. Depending on the season, we may discount 8% for stays longer than 7 days, 10% for 15 days or more, and 15% - 20% for stays longer than 30 days.

Why should you stay with us?

1A) Our prices are the best of any place for what we have to offer. Our beautiful 3-bdrm 2 bath spacious home will satisfy most any traveler. We have a private pool.

1) Clear, magnificent, close unobstructed view of the mountains and ocean from a spacious patio, the pool, the master bedroom balcony/bed, one of the downstairs bedrooms, and a peek from the living area.

2) Short ride by car to 3 beautiful beaches

3) Large spacious home (2200sf) with a beautiful infinity pool. All granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances, and beautiful showers.

4) Management that has lived there for 20+ years and speaks English and Spanish fluently. He can assist you in whatever you wish to do

5) Our secure location in Los Altos de Cacique is excellent. Every home is custom. Great restaurants are 5 minutes by car away.

6) 45 Minutes from excellent surfing in Tamarindo or a 2 hour boat ride to Witch's Rock for truly world class surfing. A zipline is only 25 minutes from the house. A beautiful waterfall/swimming area is about 35 minutes.

7) We are 5 minutes by car between nightlife, good shopping, and good restaurants in Playa del Coco and a beautiful "Blue Star" beach and elegant restaurants in Playa Hermosa.

8) A great blend of 1st and 3rd world cultures


We look forward to having you as our guest.

Wonderful stay in Coco
Wonderful view and pool, the ice maker in the fridge was a great bonus! Francisco was great to deal with made sure we had everything we needed. The outdoor furniture could be upgraded as well as master bed mattress. Definitely need a vehicle, property is close to Coco Beach but up a very steep hill. Views were amazing and overall a great stay.

Nice house with wonderful views from several ares on the property and a great pool. The kitchen was good for cooking. It was clean and it was great for relaxing. The kitchen has a sliding glass door with no covering and that might bother some people. Communication was great. The only issue we had was that the listening mistakenly said it was a 3 min walk to Coco Beach and it would have been at least 15 mins on a very steep, no sidewalks,

Amazing Location
The views from this house were spectacular! My kids loved swimming while watching the sunset and underneath the stars. We got to see crazy storms roll by and enjoyed the small town of Coco and it’s nearby beaches. Definitely don’t be afraid to drive down some back roads to find smaller or more secluded beaches- we got to some that were just beautiful! The house itself could use some updates. Small kitchen appliances were out of date or slightly damaged. New outdoor cushions that are not torn or don’t fit the chairs would go a long way to help this space feel more put together/inviting. Over all, this house was great AND a few maintenance touches would help tremendously.

Sunset House
Great location, have stayed in same neighborhood previously. We had a slight mix up with the entrance code but resolved it on our own, #'s were reversed for the key box entrance. Ants were everywhere upon entrance. Dead & alive crawling up & down walls. In the floor around windows. Baths & bedrooms were clean but beds are sub standard. You should.consider replacing with Foundations & new mattress. Weeds in back yard along with hose & old lounge chair. I moved the hose & chair, they were unsightly. Weather & view were lovely. Sorry but i expected a little better because i know the neighborhood.

Wonderful!!!
We had the most wonderful stay at Sunset House. The property itself it beautiful. Every day we enjoyed spending time in the swimming pool (with Michael the lizard keeping a watchful, if wary eye on us). The view from the house is absolutely spectacular and we loved how open and spacious the home is. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to prepare dinners in, and we made great use of the fantastic outdoor grill. Mornings spent drinking coffee on the balcony outside of the master bedroom became a treasured ritual, and we have so many photographs of the sunset which is -spectacular. I also managed to photograph a comet and the Southern Cross which is not something visible to those of us from the Northern Hemisphere. We had a great time visiting nearby beaches including Playa Ocotol, Playa Hermosa, Playa Panama and – of course, Playa Flamingo. (I do not recommend following the Waze shortcut to get to Playa Flamingo as it will have you crossing a creek!) We also visited Poza Los Coyotes which was magical! We also spent an afternoon beach hopping with Marcy (contact through website My Tan Feet) going to secluded, crystal water beaches that can only be reached by boat. Dining out we had great meals at Mar Azul and Numu Taproom and Bistro. Our favorite was Verde Salvia on Boulevard Playas del Coco. This chef-owned restaurant serves authentic Italian food by an Italian trained, Italian born chef. Our second time at the restaurant we managed to book the chef’s risotto tab

Loved the location, and home, descriptions were accurate. Only downfall, is it is in need of basic maintenance. Lawns could have been mowed, lawn furniture very weather fatigued and there was something very wrong with the grey water septic. we had to plug all drains to keep odors at bay.

Our Anniversary at Sunset House
We went to celebrate our 25th Anniversary with two of our children, Bernie helped me with the venue for the celebration , which was beautiful and amazing fine dining and with the flowers place , I was able to order a beautiful cake from a local bakery which was the best cake we ever had ! And trust me we have had many cakes . I love cakes for all occasions! ( ElPastelero ) when it comes to the condition of the house , yes it needs serious TLC … new furniture , new mattresses, the ones right now are very uncomfortable, it needs paint , the porch and pool area also are in need of furniture , so as the master bedroom furniture . the sunset there is amazing , the views from the property are breathtaking…we really enjoyed the views and the property layout. Overall we had 11 amazing days there but with so little money the house can be a 5 star rental. I understand is Costa Rica but the bugs are everywhere .. ants specially, that almost ate my 12 year old alive which means it needs pest control inside and out . Also the neighbors dog do bothers every morning and also scapes and comes to the house , which I didn’t like because I had my girls with me . As far as fishing … I booked a fishing trip with The fisherman they use and it wasn’t great so beware .. he didn’t want to go deep fishing , just trolling which I specially requested no trolling since my husband doesn’t like it , in top of that the bait wasn’t good , was old and they weren’t biting , it was a disappointment ( my husband have many years fishing so he knew more than those two guys ) don’t waste your money with that fishing people ! We appreciate the help of Bernie and Thomas but as a traveler I recommend updating that house for better reviews and a comfortable stay for future guest.

Absolutely Gorgeous
We had the pleasure of staying at the property which was absolutely gorgeous. Fantastic views, the pool was phenomenal and the kitchen and BBQ was exactly what we needed to eat from home most of the time. The town is a hop skip and a jump down the hill and had everything that we needed in Coco. The sunsets were magnificent and the way the house sits, it was perfect viewing from the pool. The host and property manager were extremely helpful in getting directions to drive from San Jose and for places to stop on the way for a couple of snacks and a cool beverage. The snorkeling right down the street was fantastic. We cannot wait to schedule another trip at stay here.

1st international trip
This was the best experience I could have asked for. Between Tom and Bernie, all of my questions were promptly answered. I had a change in a flight which resulted in getting to Costa Rica a whole day later than I had originally booked the property for, and Tom made every accommodation to give us a refund and allow for an earlier check in. While staying in the house, Bernie was easily reached via the phone number provided and arranged for a cab to pick us up and bring us to the Coco beach downtown. The view from the pool is unbeatable, every sunset is incredible. The house had a ton of space for all of us, we were 6 adults, and the neighborhood felt very safe. The only other feedback I would give is to have the information for the safe updated.. the welcome card mentioned it required 4 AAA batteries which we had to buy once we got there, but they did not fit in there and the safe actually looks like it might take AA or 9v, it’s unclear. But we weren’t able to use the safe. Although, even without it, we had no issues leaving money and passports in the house and keeping it locked up. Overall I would 100% return to this rental, and highly recommend it to anyone looking to stay in the area!

Beware of this property
We booked this property for what we hoped to be a great way to celebrate our recent engagement. Upon arrival the house was dirty, garbage cans full of other people’s garbage. Red ants everywhere. The kitchen was filthy. Every room was full of bugs. Cobwebs in doorways. The upstairs balcony had a very active wasps nest. It seemed nobody had cleaned in weeks. The outdoor area was beautiful as far as the view, but that was also a mess. We ended up not even staying at the property because it was so dirty. Although the refund was processed, if we did not have family in the area, we would have been stuck with no place to stay for our time in Guanacaste. We made the best of it and ended up at a beautiful place to stay but learn from our mistake and be careful when booking the property. With the mixed reviews we decided to take a chance, but in the end it was not what we expected.
