As I sit here on our last morning at Casa Marina I am very sad to be leaving this paradise! The cabinas here are so comfortable the short walk to the beach is beautiful, the surf is great! There are just a few restaurants here but all are very good! Marina and Frank are great hosts as usual ( our second time here)! Very quiet and relaxing! Anyone who is coming to Playa Grande should stay at Casa Marina as it is centrally located to everything, even a short walk and boat ferry to Tamarindo if you want to go to shop! I think these cabinas are more suited for couples than families as there are only two on the property and it is very quiet and peaceful! So if you like to surf, relax, walk on the beach, enjoy the nature of Costa Rica to the fullest come stay at Casa Marina!

Surfin' Costa Rica

Our recent stay a Casa Marina was delightful! We are a couple in our late 20’s and we were looking for a low-key environment where we could relax and learn surf. We got just what we wanted!!! It was nice to be able to walk around the neighborhood to the local grocery store and the delicious restaurants. The surfing at the (very close) beach was perfect for our level and the seclusion of the beach was divine! The room, pool, and grounds are well cared for and hostess Marina is outstanding. Her warm personality, knowledge of the area, and willingness to help truly made our experience exceptional. Having free wi-fi on site was an added bonus and put ease to the usual hassle of finding and paying for the Internet when traveling internationally. Casa Maria has all the essentials and is private. It was a truly relaxing vacation in a wonderfully relaxing environment! Also, ask Marina about her handmade silver and stone jewelry. I bought a beautiful silver cuff bracelet that is a great souvenir to remember our Costa Rican adventure!!!

We had a great time at Casa Marina watching the sunsets and surfers on the beautiful and nearly deserted beach. We could hear the waves crashing on he beach every night. We took daily runs on the beach and cooled off in the wonderful pool right outside of our front door. We enjoyed a couple of pool side candlelight dinners with food bought at the local store and walked to nearby restaurants on a couple of other nights. Since the property sits in the middle a natural reserve we saw and heard lots of local birds and other animals such as monkeys and iguanas. Marina is a great hostess with a complete knowledge of the area.

Loved our stay at Casa Marina!!! 3min walk to the beach, which was not saturated with people, gorgeous beach!!! Cheap ferry ride away from Tamarindo if you want to get some shopping done, and yoga classes, surf classes, surf rentals, bike rentals all within walking distance. Ended up not renting a car and just enjoying Playa Grande. Marina is a also a great host, full of ideas and travel sugesstions if you need them.

AMAZING PLACE!

My boyfriend and I stayed here over Thanksgiving and we had an amazing time! The place is about a minute from the beach, has wi-fi, a pool, and you can even rent a surfboard from Marina! The place is some-what remote -- near some restaurants but you need a car or a taxi to get into town -- (which is exactly what we wanted) so I would suggest renting a car if you want to really get around but if you want to just relax by the beach and surf this is a perfect location. Best of all, Marina is super helpful and sweet and will help you organize anything!
