Perfect spot

We loved the home and the fact that every bedroom had a comfortable king bed. Open floor plan and multiple outdoor locations to enjoy a meal together (table by pool, also table up on rooftop deck). Very clean pool and beautiful home. Very close to a grocery store, restaurants, and the beach!

Incredible

This was our second trip to the area, and we absolutely loved everything about this house. Proximity to the beach and communication was stellar. We truly enjoy the pool every day as it is a shaded area. The house is absolute perfection, and we would come back in a heartbeat.

Beautiful Beach Home

Our group of six enjoyed every day of our stay in this beautiful home! Everything we needed was provided for this visit. We felt welcome as soon as we entered the front door. Marie is a fantastic host and we had great communication during our stay. The pool is beautiful and is maintained daily. I highly recommend this home!

Great holiday

My husband & I stayed in the house with 2 other couples January/25, the pool & yard is beautiful, we had Howler Monkeys nearby almost every day, it is in a great location & very close to the beach, the bedrooms are all very nice, the kitchen needs some work, cement counter was terrible & the cupboards are falling apart, the pictures need to be updated. Overall it was a great holiday

Beautiful house steps from the beach

We had a wonderful stay at Casa Circa Del Mar. we traveled with our family of six (“kids” ages 20, 17, 12, 10). The house was a perfect size. Potrero is a lovely dark sand beach and the house is just steps from the beach. We enjoyed cooking at home and also trying a few of the restaurants in town. The hosts were incredibly attentive, making the check-in process super smooth and checking in with us via What’s App throughout our stay.

Great times with friends

There were 7 of us on this trip. We planned it almost a year ago as soon as we did the host contacted us and from that point on everything went perfect. The area is very kicked back and enjoyable. The host provided transportation from airport so we rented a golf cart. I would recommend that anyone do the same it is the perfect way to get around in this area.

Casa Cerca del Mar

Overall this place was in a good location & having a pool to ourselves was fantastic! Benito the gardener & Silvia the cleaning lady were excellent & very helpful & Saioa, the manager was very helpful with everything we asked of getting! The bedrooms were comfortable & having our own bathrooms was great. The only complaint; the pool loungers & chairs need cushions. We found most of the chairs were uncomfortable. Tom was extremely easy to deal with & answered all enquiries quickly. All in all, 2 weeks flew by & we're all sorry to be going home to the cold.
Response from VrboOwner on 24 March 2020
Thank you for your feedback! It's always helpful to hear ways in which we can improve on the "Casa Cerca Del Mar" experience. In fact, as a result of your comments, we're in the process of purchasing a new set of comfortable loungers and chairs for the villa as we speak! Hopefully you'll return sometime in the near future and feel the difference for yourself. ;) Thanks again, Tom

Amazing location and close to everything

I loved this property. It was very clean, very comfortable, air conditioning worked very well, lots of space, nice pool, very beautifully landscaped, right on a very nice and calm beach (perfect for kids), well stocked, very quiet neighborhood and secure (Electronic gate, alarm system, etc), and it was very close to everything, especially Flamingo and Las Catalinas. The owner was amazing, very friendly, very helpful, and very welcoming... i accidentally left my $250 portable Wi-Fi at a restaurant the night before we left, and didn’t realize it until i was half way back to the airport. The owner went and got it for me and is going to mail it to me. Exceptional property owner, and amazing property. Will definitely stay again!

Great Family Vacation

We stayed at this property for a week after my daughter's wedding near Liberia. My family of 8 adults and 1 child were visited by our new family one day and we had a great time at the pool getting to know one another. The house is as advertised; spacious, clean and well equipped. The house is approximately 4 km down a stone road with many good restaurant choices. There are numerous beaches that each have their own benefits. Unfortunately the red tide was in during our stay so we used the pool every day. We also took the boat to Palo Verde which was excellent and did some offshore fishing catching snapper for dinner. I would highly recommend this property and Saioa, the property manager, was most helpful and a pleasure to deal with.
Response from VrboOwner on 24 March 2020
Thank you for your generous review of Casa Cerca Del Mar, "The House Near The Ocean." I am sorry about the "Red Tide" you encountered during your stay. It is an algae over-growth that occurs naturally from time to time in coastal areas around the world. Fortunately, it is rare on Playa Potrero, and I'm glad you were able to make full use of the pool during your stay. Thanks Again, TOM...OWNER Casa Cerca Del Mar

A Great House!

We were a group of 3 couples and this house was perfect for us. We spent very little time in it but when we did it was very comfortable and clean. We took full advantage of the outdoor seating areas and especially enjoyed coffee in the morning on the crows nest watching the Howler Monkeys and evening cocktails for sunset. If there was anything at all we needed Christelle and Chan were available to answer a questions and make it happen. The preferred way of communication is WhatsApp so best to have that available. The grounds and pool were tended to on a regular basis. We looked forward to Chan and Christelle visits and happy smiles. The groundskeeper and cleaning people were all efficient and polite as well. We rented golf carts and were so happy we did! Although many things are walkable you can explore much more! They are also terrific for grocery runs!

A great place to stay!

We took our first trip to Costa Rica for Christmas with 3 adult children and significant others. It was a great experience and this property was just right for us. Three first floor bedrooms with 3 bathrooms and a master bedroom upstairs was perfect for our group. Each room has its own AC unit. Marie the property manager was very friendly, helpful and responsive. We rented golf carts which were delivered the day we arrived and Marie arranged to meet them at the house for the drop off before we arrived. (If you want golf carts in Potrero, look up Chip and Jennifer Little. They’re awesome too). We had chef Gustavo come and cook Christmas breakfast for us which was fun and delicious. His contact info is in the guest materials. The beach is across the street. Not the most beautiful beach in the world, but nice to have nearby and an easy walk south to the Potrero restaurants. We took the kayaks out one day and had a great time. The pool area is very comfortable when you’re not out and about, and a landscaper came and tended to the pool and yard almost daily. I highly recommend this property. I would definitely stay there again. Marie is awesome!

Better Than Pictures Can Describe

Our stay here was perfect in every way. The pictures don’t do it justice. Just a few steps away from the beach and very close to restaurants, grocery & more. Playa Flamingo is also just a 5-10 min drive away but we preferred the relaxing, calmer water of Playa Potrero, the beach you see in the photos. This is THE location for perfect sunsets. Also a very cool little restaurant about 5 min walk down the beach called Las Brisas. The house was very clean with a great setup for our group. Loved having a king size bed and bathroom for every room. Also felt very secure with the electronic gate and alarm system. Communication with Christelle was easy with WhatsApp & Sylvia, the housekeeper ensured our arrival, departure and cleaning were flawless.

Absolutely fantastic!!

This place exceeded our expectations. The location is excellent with great restaurants very close but the best part was the beach. It's clean and quiet and so close that you can listen to the waves at night. The top "crows nest" area is wonderful for looking at the ocean and listening to the wildlife especially in the morning or at sunset. And the pool is kept immaculate by Benito the gardener who cleans it early in the morning. The beds in every room were so comfortable we didn't want to leave them. Well appointed kitchen great dinning area. We can't wait to come back. Christelle and Chan are awesome and will bend over backwards to make sure you have a perfect stay.
