  • Stay here in June of 2008. This house is awesome. The property is awesome. I can't say enough. Very reasonable rate too! Right on the beach and tons to do in the area. Zip lined twice and rode horses, shopping, etc. Nice! Will definitely come back.

  • It has been 3 days back into the daily grind and I'm still unable to get last week's vacation out of my head. The accomodations were so great that I felt compelled to write this comment. Gary's place was spectacular. It truly was a slice of heaven within heaven. The place literally offered everything you could think of including some that I would never dream of. These were the slack line, zipline and rope swing. The view was straight out of a Conde Naste magazine. Gary and his family were exceptionally helpful. They promptly handled every request we had. I would highly recommend this rental to anyone in the neigborhood.

  • We had such a lovely stay at Gary & Deanna's. Nine of uf us had plenty of room in the beautiful oceanfront home. We especially enjoyed the pool area, veranda's and fabulous views. Each of Gary's travel suggestions were great. Hazel, our maid, was wonderful- she even cooked dinner for us one night, Costa Rican style!! this was truely one of our groups' best trips yet!

  • Just got back a couple of weeks ago (our stay-Dec 8-14, 2007). Wish we could have stayed longer. We went horseback riding and saw 4 monkeys. Rode horses on the beach too. Caught 4 sea bass one day and 5 another day, right in front of the house. We ate them and they were delicious! Went body surfing almost everyday. Macaws visted us several days on the property, they are beautiful. Used the kayaks and walked the beach. Drove to Monte Verde and did the zip lines in the rain forest. Gary and Deanne were great. A wonderful experience for us. Hope to go again!

  • It has been a year since we stayed at this lovely place and I can’t seem to forget it. I can't imagine a better place for a group of 3 families with kids. It was a total of 12 people staying here. Gary and Dianne were great and the house was exceptional. We will never forget the great dinners at the pool and the wonderful beach access along with great views every morning while eating breakfast. At first I was not sure, the home is not in a resort, however it is best place I have ever stayed. This statement means a lot since I have worked in the vacation rental industry for 15 years and have had the pleasure of staying at wonderful locations all over the US. I will state that what makes it great is its location (beach access) and its price. You cannot go wrong with this choice. However do not expect that you are at the Hyatt or Four Seasons. This is for families and for people who want to enjoy being in Costa Rica with its culture. We hope to come here again. Thanks again, Gary and Dianne Rae Anne DeBonville

  • Our extended family -- parents, three siblings & spouses, and four grandchildren (ages 1 to 6) -- stayed for a week and loved every minute of it. We had never been on an all-family vacation -- let alone to Central America! Gary and his family made us feel at home. The location, the house, and the property were outstanding. There was enough space so that no one felt crowded. We came home with so many beautiful pictures -- but none did the place justice! Thanks again for a wonderful vacation! Best, Kristen

  • We just completed our stay at Gary's beach house and were thrilled with the experience. The house is wonderful and the sunsets over the Pacific are to die for. Within a two hour drive are terrific opportunities for several national parks and untold beaches. If not driving you can be picked up at the house on the beach for sportfishing; we did and had a great 1/2 day trip. Don't miss the Carrara or Manual Antonio national parks.

  • Thank you again for such a beautiful place! All 17 of us had a GREAT time staying at your house. I had read one comment that the photos don't do the place justice-and I'd have to agree. It's even more beautiful than the pictures you have on your website show, and those were good photos! I was skeptical of the photos at first because I wasn't sure when they were taken (for all I knew they were taken 50 years ago). But for those reading this comment, the photos ARE recent and the place is even better than it appears!
