Nice Villa
The villa is within easy walking distance to the beach and a couple of great restaurants. The beds are extremely large and comfortable, AC worked great (It was 35c when we were there so needed it for sure! Only rent a place with AC), and the kitchen is very well equipped (we did lots of cooking in the villa). We enjoyed the small pool and usually had it to ourselves which was nice. Just make sure you do a grocery shop before arriving at Playa Grande as the little markets in PG are VERY expensive. Out of the owner's control but It's Costa Rica, so expect some potential insects. We also were able to do an estuary tour that started just a 2 min walk away which was cool (Shawna organized it for us) and we took the boat over to Tamarindo one morning just to check it out. But PG beach was much quieter and Tamarindo was too busy for us. You can also easily do some trips to other beaches easily such as Playa Conchal which was beautiful. Shawna was very helpful and responded quickly to any of our questions.

Great Stay in Playa Grande
Sunshine Villa is exactly as pictured / described in the listing. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking utensils , etc and the beds were comfortable! We stayed with two young kids and it fit our family well. The walk to the beach was short, just took us longer with the kids and there were a few restaurants nearby to walk to! We felt like we had plenty of privacy with the other villas nearby and very secure. Playa Grande Estates in general is very safe, a little out of the way, but a great community. The only downside to our stay was the pool- everyday there was either animal poop inside or outside the pool. We didn’t use it once we found it inside. Thankfully friends nearby had a pool to use!

Why they chose this property

It took more than 5 years of exploring, comparing homes and locations in Costa Rica to find the perfect place to spend an annual escape from winter. Simple living, good neighbors, a beach home close to both surf and swimming pool, air conditioning and outdoor living, solid construction, open living, cleanliness and comfort without fussy.

We look forward to sharing this tropical escape with you.
