Another Fantastic Week in Costa Rica
We stayed at Casa Somos Uno in 2019 and had a great experience so when we made the decision to go back to Costa Rica for the winter break we said - lets book this awesome place again. Key reason is the house location is perfect in a secure private neighborhood in Playa Negra with 24 hour security/guards. The house it self is perfect for out 7 member family - 3 adult kids - shared the bunk room in the basement and my wife and I had the fabulous master on one side while my brother in-law and mother in-law had the other two bedrooms. The owners and the property managers that are local are awesome just send a WhatsApp message and they respond immediately. The only issue we had was the neighborhood was experiencing power problems and those were taken care of by the local management team. They should be fixed now - power company came out a few times and fixed it for us mid-week. - THANK YOU AGAIN FOR AN AWESOME WEEK>

Our family of 9 stay at Casa Somos Uno
Our family of 9 stayed at Somos Uno for 9 nights. The house is beautiful, clean and well appointed. The view is breathtaking! We had a wonderful time. There was one exception. There was a rather large leak from the roof in one of the upper bedrooms. We notified the property manager and it seemed that she was already aware of the problem. We sent pictures too. No further action to fix the problem was taken and the leak continued to drip through our stay. A large pool of water formed and we had to put towels down. It was embarrassing that some family members had to deal with that during the whole trip.

Beyond expectations!
The house, location, and property managers (Jarrod and Meaghan) all exceeded our expectations. The house is well designed, super clean, and thoughtfully stocked. Looking over the ocean from the poolside deck was just plain awesome. The location was perfect for us, could walk to surf spots in the morning, and the sunsets in front were ideal. Rocky beach in front might not be great for families with younger children to swim but was perfect for us. Could stand up paddleboard right in front of the house. Jarrod and Meaghan were great communicators, very responsive, and their suggestions of places to eat and activities were spot on. They hooked us up with Javier at Los Pargos Adventures to rent surfboards (he was flexible and suggested great gear), arranged an in-house massage (best ever), and also organized a horse ride down the beach with Ronaldo which was one of the highlights of the trip. Cannot say enough about the experience, we will definitely be back!

Gorgeous home, well-loved and well-maintained
Our family of 4 plus 2 grandparents arrived here as our last stop on a cross-Costa Rica journey and it was an amazingly comfortable landing. This beachfront house is just beautiful and the property managers, Jarrod and Meaghan, made it a real home. There are numerous outdoor and indoor spaces that are a joy to spend time in. The famous Playa Negra surf was just steps away. We stayed in several gorgeous spaces during our Costa Rican travels but Casa Somos Uno vividly stands out. We feel lucky to have stayed there.
