  This villa was absolutely amazing! We had 9 adults on our trip and there was plenty of room for us to live for the week. The infinity pool was fantastic and refreshing. There was plenty of outside seating in the shade and also enough room to bask in the sun. The villa was very clean and there were plenty of bath and beach towels. The villa was also well lit and gated which made us feel very safe while staying there. The pictures are exactly what you get! The beach was a 5 minute walk down the street. The local restaurants that we tried within walking distance were all great. The pizza shop was a great place to get some simple food and drinks, Buena Serra was great for a high quality meal and also had fantastic entertainment. We also stumbled upon an awesome beach bar with Adirondack chairs to sit and enjoy frozen drinks and delicious food and it had a great view of the beach and ocean. There was a small supermarket about a half mile walk up the road where you could get fresh fruits and veggies, beer and alcohol, and most other things you would find in a supermarket. Eric was our property supervisor and called us frequently to make sure we had everything we needed and were having a good time. We even asked him if he could get us a blender so we could make delicious frozen drinks. He had it to us the next day! We used the concierge service, Tico Tours for transportation to and from the airport as well as 2 excursions. I cannot say enough about them. They were so fantastic! They had great vans that could fit all 9 of us and our luggage. They met us with a cooler of water, juices, and beers every time. They were super friendly and knowledgeable. We also used the personal chef that was recommended by the owners. She was affordable and fabulous. She cooked for all 9 of us with ease and prepared authentic Costa Rican cuisine. The owners Jeff and Rainie were full of great recommendations for things to do and places to eat. They also provided us with great tips for a better stay. THANK YOU so much for a great Villa and an amazing time in Costa Rica! PURA VIDA!!!

  Recommended for: Sightseeing, adventure seekers, tourists without a car, families with teenagers, girls getaway.

  Owner response: I'm glad that you enjoyed your stay at Villa Las Palmas and that we were able to help you plan a great trip to Costa Rica - creating happy memories!

  This home is exactly as it states..an amazing villa rental. The cleanliness was fantastic and the property well maintained. The pool is absolutely beautiful and enjoyable for our whole crew. The pictures are exactly as it appears. Beach is an easy 10min walk and a beautiful location for long walks, sunbathing, beach fun, running, or sunset cocktails (all of which we tried). The owners were great throughout our experience and made the process very easy. They provided us with great recommendations regarding what to pack, where to eat, how to get around, and things to do. There was a property supervisor, Eric, available for any propery issues. He worked with the owners to bring us a new blender for frozen drinks! We took advantage of the concierge as well as the chef and didn't regret a thing! The concierge provided our airport transport and full day excursions x 2. With a party of 9, it was fantastic avoiding a rental car and having an airconditioned van to comfortably fit us all. Our chef came for 3 breakfasts and 4 dinners and was phenomenal! There is a Luperon (small market) 1/2 mile up the road and provided us with snacks, fresh fruits and veggies, breakfast food, and beverages. There are plenty of great restaurants within walking distance as well. We weren't able to try them all, but never had anything less than fabulous! People were friendly in the area and service was good. The locked gate at the villa made us feel safe. Our group spoke very little Spanish and made out fine. In summary, Villas Las Palmas is a beautiful property (clean, large, fantastic pool), easy access to the beach, 3 homes away from concierge, rural area with small town necessities, close to touristy areas, and only 20 min from the airport! I would definitely return to the property.

  Recommended for: Sightseeing, adventure seekers, tourists without a car, families with teenagers, families with young children.

  Owner response: Thank you for the wonderful recommendation, Jessica. I'm happy you enjoyed Villa Las Palmas - and the frozen drinks!

  Pros: Excellent location near the beach. The pool was nice, clean, and refreshing. The house itself was very comfortable and a great size for a large family or some friends. Working with the owners was easy and a the manager Bernal is extremely helpful and there if/when you need him. Cons: No wi-fi (at the time of our stay), but to me that wasn't a big deal. Power went out a couple of times during the week. The price, to some, wouldn't be considered inexpensive. Overall: I would gladly stay again.

  Recommended for: Sightseeing, adventure seekers, tourists without a car, age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children.

  Owner response: Thank you Justin, we hope that you enjoyed our honeymoon gift of a bottle of wine and flowers! Unfortunately, occasional power outages happen in Costa Rica, and sometimes the surge knocks the WIFI out. We're on our third modem in the last 12 months! Thank you very much for your kind review... our door is always open to you. Jeff and Rainie Kennedy

• A Great Time in Villa Las Palmas, Guanacaste, Costa Rica

  A Great Time in Villa Las Palmas, Guanacaste, Costa Rica

  My family and I were delighted for having spent the last days of 2012 and the first of 2013 at Villa Las Palmas. It is a wonderful, well located place, with all the amenities that made us feel like at our own home. It's such a spacious, beautiful vacationing spot that allowed us to have a wonderful time together, for it had just about everything we needed, even though there were ten of us. The good experience began with the great communication I established with its owners. Both of them were attentive to answer my questions in regards to the place and its location. Not only were they very cordial, but also knowledgeable about its surroundings, which allowed us to schedule visits to other nearby beaches, and plan on what to take with us. Not having rented any other place like this before, it was a relief to see that the pictures posted online were accurate and that the house, as well as the good-sized swimming pool, was clean and well maintained. In short, it is with great satisfaction that I recommend renting Villa Las Palmas anytime you want to spend a great time in Guanacaste, Costa Rica.

  Owner response: Maria, We are so happy that you and your family enjoyed your time at Villa Las Palmas and that we were able to surpass your expectations!

  Thank you so much Rainie for a wonderful time! We could not have asked for a better home to suit our family. Your home was beautiful and the pool was awesome! It was even more beautiful than the pictures looked. We loved Play Hermosa and all that it offered. We spent time at the beach, went scuba diving and went on the best tour of our lives with Bernal. We hope to definitely go back. Thank you to Bernal also who was amazing and took such great care of us!!! Rainie it was wonderful working with you. You made our trip and all of the planning for Costa Rica so incredibly easy. It was a wonderful, relaxing vacation at Villa Las Palmas!

  Thank you Jeff & Rainie! WE have thoroughly enjoyed our week here. Bernal is amazing and really made our week fun! We have been horseback riding, zip lining, sailing and to the waterfalls and crocodile watching. This was a wonderful place for the nine of us and we will never forget the hospitality and graciousness of Costa Rica!

  We loved our week in beautiful Costa Rica! The pool was so cool and refreshing after our adventures rafting, zip lining, horseback riding and to Palo Verde. Most of all, the people and the culture can teach us so much about pura vita! Thanks so much.
