About this property

This beautiful villa has a great, spacious layout. Our guests enter on the main living area, and immediately see the beautiful ocean views from every room. The kitchen opens into the living room, dining area, and--via sliding glass doors--to the balcony with a nice table and chairs, and amazing views of the Pacific Ocean.

The kitchen is fully furnished with all large and small appliances and cooking utensils for preparing your meals at home. The townhome is decorated with luxury tropical furnishings from Costa Rica.

The home has three bedrooms, each of which have their own en-suite bathroom. The master has a king bed and private bathroom with a shower and tub. The second bedroom has two twin beds and private bath. The third bedroom has a queen bed, one bunk bed, and an adjoining bathroom.

The home has an in-unit washer/dryer available for its guests.

AMAZING POOL! Only eleven other villas share the incredible ocean-view infinity pool, which is likely the best pool in Guanacaste to enjoy the sunsets! The pool area also has an outdoor sink, prep area, grill, dining tables, lounge chairs, his-and-her bathrooms, and showers for our guests to enjoy.

Beach access to Playa Prieta and Playa Penca is directly across the street from Villas Catalina. Playa Prieta is about a six-minute walk from this beautiful home.

Please note that, while this is an extremely popular vacation rental, there are steps inside this unit and also steps to the pool, making it not ideal for those with extremely limited mobility.

The Villas Catalina community offers gated 24-hour security with onsite guards, infinity pool, poolside BBQ grill and magnificent views of the Pacific Ocean and nearby beaches. Restaurants, grocery stores, medical, dental and pharmacy services are located nearby. Area activities include surfing, fishing, golf, boating, rafting, scuba diving, sailing, zip-line canopy tours, casinos, swimming and more.

The home is located about one hour from the Liberia International Airport (LIR) in northwest Guanacaste.

Worth it

The property was as-advertised. Plenty of accommodations inside the villa and the views from the shared infinity pool were breathtaking. Something not mentioned in the listing was the pool deck has a grill and an area for entertaining, which has a lot of potential for fun. Only one issue our first night. the jacuzzi tub in the master suite had an ant infestation, only discovered after the jets were turned on and ants came pouring out, into the tub. It happened late and there wasn’t anything the property managers could do at night, but they did answer my call and assured me they’d have someone come first thing in the morning to spray for the ants. We ended up having to go get our own bug repellent because they kept coming out even after the tub was drained. Even with this the stay was great. After the double spraying of nontoxic bug repellent the ant sightings were more normal- which it’s Costa Rica so there’s going to be ants and bugs, it’s part of the experience- but the property did comp us the first night for the issue since it ended up kicking the couple staying in the master suite out of their room due to the amount of ants. By the second night they were able to sleep in that room and it was fine from there on out. Check out was a little unknown since there weren’t any checkout instructions, but again our host was easy to communicate with and ultimately made the experience a positive one. Even with the ants, we’d stay here again.

Spacious House Near Two Great Beaches

Our family had a wonderful time at this property. It is much more spacious than I was imagining the bunk bed bedroom is upstairs and the primary and the twin bedroom are down stairs. Each has its own bathroom. The kitchen was well stocked, but be sure to go to the grocery store on your way there. While there were coffee filters and a few spices, there was no coffee and we ended up having to buy some washing machine detergent as that was also running low. While the house is close to several famous Costa Rica Beaches, we actually preferred Playa Preita which is a short walk away. They had beach towels, a cooler, chairs, etc. all at the property. Communication with Krain Concierge was also wonderful and they helped us book a snorkel tour and also answers many of our questions during our stay over What's App. Having the washing machine was wonderful too with all of the beach time and sand. The sunsets from the infinity pool are also amazing. Only negatives are that the house is very close to the road so there is a lot of noise of cars/motorcycles/dogs/people. The beds are also creaky and made noise as you turned in the night. The view from the balcony is hard to beat though. Our family of five had a wonderful stay here. Kids ages 13, 10, 10.
