Perfect for groups of friends and/or family

The house is beautiful with a breathtaking view from all corners of the house, with the most amazing being the pool deck over looking the infinity pool. Everything Costa Rica has to offer, including amazing beaches, wildlife, waterfalls, mountains, mangroves, etc are within a short drive from the house. The host are the best. They offer concierge services that can help plan so many things that you may like to do. They responded to questions and provided information in a timely manner. Would definitely recommend this house to anyone! Just remember you’re in Costa Rica, so things will be different than a similar house in the U.S. You won’t regret choosing this stay for your relaxing getaway.

Best VRBO I have ever stayed at!

I can’t say enough positive things about this property. I stayed there for a week with my spouse and 4 other couples. The bedrooms with their private bathrooms are excellent! They are all spacious and all have king beds. This house is clean and beautiful. The infiniti pool with it’s incredible view of the ocean is a place I could have sat for months, haha. We had some cool animals, birds, and even insects visit us. The kitchen is spacious and well equipped. Kevin, Linda, and Alejandro went out of their way to ensure that our stay was as perfect as possible. The town of Dominical is charming and has no shortage of excellent restaurants (eat at Fuego and the thai place for sure!). There are waterfalls/pools all around and Uvita is a short drive away. Seriously, you can’t go wrong staying at this house. I came home to a snow storm and I just want to be back at Casa Linda!

Incredible, even the best pictures won't show you the beauty you see from this house

Casey was an awesome host, everything was properly described and explained about the house. Tho house was beyond my expectations fresh new and everything you need. It's standing on a very nice hill. Very nice property. Gated house. Close to all activities and quiet and calm neighborhood. Noone bothers you or sees you. You have your infinity pool view that you can sit for hours listed to different tropical sounds and enjoy the nature. Casey definitely made our stay as easy and convenient as possible. I've done huge research of houses before I rented this one. And I am very happy with price hospitality and all of the above. Dominical is a beautiful city to see. And don't think the rainy weather will ruin your stay. It most definitely won't. Tropical rainy showers are the best!!!!!!

A home that defines Pura Vida

This house is absolutely stunning! Tastefully designed to allow you to experience the true Costa Rican Life style, while still having access to every modern amenity imaginable. All 5 rooms come with beautiful beach front views over looking the homes infinity pool and back yard rain-forest. When you are done relaxing poolside overlooking the Pacific ocean, you can take a 10-15 minute walk down the beach to the local town of Playa De Dominical. Where you can truly immerse yourself into the Pura Vida way o life. There are plenty of local bars, restaurants, surf shops and even an local brewery to spend time at. If you are looking for more to do, feel free to contact the home's management office as there are plenty of day trips to go on depending on your level of adventure. On our trip we were able to do a full day of deep sea fishing, a hike to an amazing water fall, stopped by the local zoo and spent the remaining days surfing the amazing waves in Domincal! I would highly recommend this trip to anyone, we returned to the states yesterday and I have already spoke to the management office about booking a trip back next year!

Perfect location to enjoy BOTH the coast and the rainforest!

When looking for a location to act as our "home base", Dominical seemed a perfect fit. We wanted a balance of activities in the rainforest/mountains and activities on the coast. Dominical did not disappoint. We were able to visit the Nauyaca Waterfalls (rated best in CR) in 20 minutes, Manuel Antonio National Park in under an hour, Uvita is only 20 minutes away. We had an easy commute to a fishing charter. We walked to town for food, drinks, sunsets, and surfing lessons. You can walk across the street and be on the beach in about 5 minutes. This is a rare find (believe me, I did A LOT of research!) because most homes are way up in the hills. This home was close to the beach without sacrificing the killer views. You'll see the sun come up over the hills in the morning and the sunsets in the evenings. The landscaping is impressive and the trees were full of toucans, colorful birds, and iguanas. The house itself was exactly as pictured. The owner and staff checked in on us often and were invaluable with regard to transportation and activity reservations. They were acessable by phone or text the whole trip. We made quite a few friends in Dominical- Michael at Roca Verde (restaurant with bar and live music across the street), Alan who works at Cafe Ensuenos (great smoothies and food) and was also our taxi driver once, The instructors at CR Surf Camp (Falon, Henry, & Ezequel) who were awesome and have great recommendations for food, Juan Carlos and Ronald at Hacienda Baru (zip line and nature hike - sloth!). Sarah and Casey (rental group) and Alejandro (our concierge) set the bar high for VRBO experiences. We were 3 couples no kids and we all agreed that Casa Linda was the perfect find. I have two suggestions for the owner. First, the automatic ice maker was too slow to keep up with us. Some plastic ice trays would be helpful to boost the supply. Second, we did not have the ability to recycle, only a trash bin was available. This was surprising since CR is sensitive to environmental impact. Overall, I wish I had a sixth star to give! We had an unforgettable vacation here. THANK YOU TEAM CASA LINDA AND DOMINICAL!! Pura Vida!!

Everything was lovely and exceptional!

We had the best time at this lovely home! Linda and Chris were so thorough and helpful with anything we needed, from car rentals and excursions to daily questions from our group. The home was spacious and accommodating for a group of 5 couples. Each room having a kind size bed + private bathroom was awesome! Couldn’t beat the short walk to the beach and security gates were nice to have for access to the property too. The home is close to the main coastal roadway (unavoidable if you want to be close to beach in this area). So you will hear auto and truck noise. Not a huge deal, especially w/ good music playing poolside, but thought I’d mention. We had a fantastic stay and time overall!!

Gorgeous house near Dominical - perfect for friends/ couples trip!

I stayed here with my husband, three other couples and two children. The house is gorgeous, clean with modern appliances. The views are credible. Each bedroom has a king bed and en-suite bathrooms and very cold A/C which you be happy about. The common areas are not but that is very common in CR and it didn’t bother us. This house was a perfect fit. Our bed was super comfortable and we slept like babies. Alejandro was fantastic at helping us with transportation, a rental car, an excursion and private chef. He and Linda and Kevin type property managers were super responsive via what’s app throughout our stay. Tatiana the housekeeper was great. The place was stocked with the all the basics and there was wonderful welcome gift of fruit, snacks and beer. We loved the pool and there were lots of pool toys. The location is about a five minute drive to Dominical. It is a cute little town. La Junta was my favorite restaurant with the best food and bloody Marias. We had fun at Fuego and Phat Noodle, as well. You’re supposed to be able to walk to the town from the beach during low tide, but we never tried that. We also saw four Scarlett macaws in town one day. We didn’t see any monkey or sloths just around the property but here were some pretty amazing iguanas hanging out while we were there. This house was really wonderful and the service and hospitality we received were fantastic. Highly recommend !!

Dominical House

Dominical was wonderful and for the most part so was the house. We saw no monkeys at the house but were there in the hottest part of the year, and I hear they go up into the hills that time of year, so you might have more wildlife outside February and March. We did see a Toucan in the tree next to the house, lots of geckos, iguanas who visited us at the pool, and other birds I can't name. Very clean and the owner, who lived downstairs at the time, was very attentive and helpful and went above and beyond to make us welcome and comfortable. There were some maintenance needs that we made the owner aware of and I am sure have been addressed by now, but worth asking about before you book. The one that stands out the most is that the dishwasher would fall out of the kitchen counter when opened, due to rotten wood or perhaps a prior tenant who was too rough with it. Still worked, but watch your toes if it's not fixed. Road noise is unavoidable in this area if you want to be close to the beach yet on the hill, but be aware the big trucks use air brakes a lot and it is pretty loud. So, not perfect, but all in all if you are looking for a big clean house with a fabulous view, in a secure area, where every bedroom has its own in suite bathroom, and the ability to walk a short distance to the beach, this was a nice find. I would stay here again due to location and awesome owner.

Well-appointed condo with great location near the beach and restaurants

The condo was a very comfortable space to share with friends and a visiting daughter. The 3 bedroom, 3 bath set-up provides privacy and the 2nd floor communal kitchen/dining/living room area is great for social activities. It's a short walk to beach access and several restaurants that we enjoyed. There is a grocery store and pharmacy nearby. The "Little Pink Church" across the street is so welcoming to visitors! The property manager, Jo was exceptionally helpful and prompt in communication with us. There was road construction throughout our stay. It was an inconvenience at times but we had a delightful experience overall.
