60th birthday get-together
The property was wonderful. We had 4 couples staying for a 60th birthday get-together. The bedrooms were very comfortable and spacious. We spent a lot of time in the pool and went boogie boarding and kayaking. We drove the golf cart or walked to town where there is a grocery store and restaurants. Hemingways is very good! The ladies enjoyed a nice breakfast one morning at Nita's Coffee. I don't know how Arturo does it but he managed to keep all our requests and questions straight! We had the chef and mixologist come one night. It was fabulous! great fun with the mixologist!! The guys went fishing one day and they cooked the fish they caught. Judy cleaned for us whenever we needed it. Martin and Paco (the dog) were on site daily. You will love it here!

Fantastic stay and wedding location!
Villa Potrero was a fantastic place to stay. The house was amazing and beautiful! It has all the amenities and and was in the best location close to everything. We hosted our wedding at the house in the back yard and it was absolutely amazing. The guests loved the space and enjoyed the mixologists that Cori and Arturo provided as well as the picturesque sunset. The house was plenty big enough for our entire wedding party.

Totally amazing!
Everything about this VRBO experience was amazing. Starting with Cori, the host, who answered my many questions promptly. The location of the house is right on the beach as pictured. Every morning Martin would put the paddle boards, kayaks, and life jackets right by the gate for easy access. There were boogie boards too. Arturo arranged our excursions, transportation, gave suggestions for restaurants. The sweetest lady would come every few days to clean. We had a chef and mixologist come one night. What a treat! We used the golf cart to get to the grocery store or explore the local area. We used the other car to take a ride to Tamarindo... the town was way too commercial for us. We were so happy to be back "home!" And the howler monkeys were in the trees right by the house several times...once at 5AM but so worth getting up for! The locals were very friendly. Take a walk on the beach to get to several restaurants and coffee shops. Arturo and Martin were easy to reach if anything came up while we were there. This is the 6th year our family of 13 has stayed at a VRBO and everyone agreed Villa Potrero was the best! It definitely exemplifies the Pura Vida! Hasta la proxima!

14 friends + Arturo = an amazing 40th birthday
We chose Villa Potrero to celebrate a friend’s 40th birthday and couldn’t have had a better experience. We are forever thankful for Arturo for organizing our chef experiences, transportation and excursions. Several in our group are already looking at rebooking for their next family vacation! Every employee of the property we encountered made us feel like family and wanted us to have the best Costa Rica experience possible. This place is a must stay!

Exceptional home away from home
Three generations of our family agreed that Villa Potrero was the best beach vacation we have experienced in 30 years of renting. As so many other reviewers have stated, this well designed, beautiful and spacious beachfront property stands head and shoulders above other similar rentals on its own, but when the amazing staff is added it becomes even more of a special place. Arturo, Yury and Martin were always accommodating, their "can do attitude" and smiles were genuine. They play a big part in elevating Villa Potrero from a wonderful, upscale beachfront property to an EXCEPTIONAL home away from home. Our family has been back in the States for less than a week and we have already rebooked Villa Potrero for next year. That speaks volumes!

Host profile image
We are a large family of 9 (yes, 7 kids!) living in Minnesota and enjoying our Costa Rican paradise Casa Surfside whenever we can. We chose the home for its location on the beach, large yard and it's close proximity to Potrero village. Potrero beach has soft sand and is wonderful for swimming and playing with the children.

Make your luxury vacation simple with our on-site concierge who will arrange transportation to/airport, excursions, golf cart rental, "house mom" prepared meals and daily cleaning for an additional fee. Home is within walking distance to many restaurants and bars.

What makes this property unique

House mom, concierge, private driver and security services on-site. Golf cart rental on-site. Bikes, paddle boards, and kayaks available for guest use.
