This place is right on the beach. It’s very nice with a lot of cutlery and dishes. Access to the Crocs Casino Pool was also great. Shelley’s accommodations were amazing. She is very accessible when needed. We had another VRBO that was not great and she saved our vacation experience to say the least. Great place to stay!
9th floor directly on the ocean! The views are amazing and the use of Crocs facilities makes The Palms condo even better to stay at for the price. There is a gate connecting the two properties so you can easily enter Crocs to use their pools/restaurants/casino while also being able to enjoy the slowed down pace of The Palms. Condo layout was nice with a very large balcony. They had a grill that we didn't have a chance to use but it looked like it would have been nice to do. Kitchen has everything you need to prepare a meal including a few spices. Washer/dryer is nice so you can pack less cloths and have fresh towels throughout your stay. Raquel was wonderful with communications and responded to any of our questions or requests immediately. We will definitely plan to book this unit the next time we are in the Jaco area. So much to see and do and so many wonderful restaurants! Our favorite was El Manglar, highly recommend if you are a seafood lover.
Beautiful location, overlooking the beautiful beach. Walking distance to town and good restaurants. The free pool at Crocs next door is awesome. Nicely furnished and very comfortable.
The condo was very clean and stocked with all the necessities. The host Shelley was very fast to respond. Shelley was very informative on where to shop for groceries, recommend restaurants and things to do. We also had access to the beautiful pool and casino at Croc's Casino next door. We felt very secure with their 24 hour security. I would definitely recommend Palms 901 if you were considering a stay in Jaco'. Pura Vita

Thanks so much Sandra for your great review! I'm glad you enjoyed your time here and come back anytime. Thanks for staying with us:)
Absolutely fantastic. This place is beautiful and exclusive. Everything was perfect and the property manager was very helpful in helping us schedule transportation shuttles and excursions. We had a wonderful time.
Everything was perfect! The location is exactly what we'd hoped for with walkable restaurants and groceries. The rooms were great for our group of 6. Could not have asked for a better place to stay.

Great views, awesome kitchen/patio & common room, Comfortable Beds!
We had a wonderful time here - just a 4 minute drive or taxi ride from town. Lots to love, view and do here. We love to travel here during November - less tourists, very little rain and temperatures are pleasant.

I would highly recommend this beach front property! We really enjoyed eating and relaxing on the balcony, it is beautiful and overlooks the ocean. The property is clean and communication with Shelley was great. The property is located right on the edge of town, and town is easy to drive and walk to. There are lots of close supermakets and great local excursions. Highly recommend!

Hi Troy,
Sounds like you guys had fun and maybe we will see you in the fall! Thanks for your review and come back anytime!

We really enjoyed our stay. The beach, pools, and town were all a lot of fun. My kids all got to do a bunch of things they hadn’t done before. Being on the ninth floor of the building was also very fun, and it stays a little cooler up there.

If you’re looking to have amenities close by with a breathtaking view this is your place. My family of four stayed and it was perfect. The patio is relaxing and just amazing. We drank coffee with a view and did yoga on the patio. The communication with the property owners was easy, hassle free and they even left detailed information to help you navigate in Jaco. Plenty of places to walk to and the access to the resort next door was a huge bonus. If we return I will definitely be staying here again!

About the host
Hosted by Shelley
We have been traveling to Costa Rica for many years. We love the country and the people of Costa Rica and are fortunate enough to come here to escape the cold Chicago winters. We have owned our condo for 10 years and when we can't be here we love to share our little piece of paradise with others.
Why they chose this property
This property was the perfect location for us. Jaco is a beach town but still big enough to offer everything we need. This corner unit, oceanfront location is the perfect place relax and play. It is walkable distance to the center of town but far enough north that it's just away from the hustle and bustle. It's a nice sized building, well maintained and has a great mix of travelers and owners.
What makes this property unique
We have put a lot of time in making this a special place to come and get away from our hectic lives. It is tastefully decorated and very comfortable. The view of the ocean and sound of the waves from the patio is our favorite place in the morning for coffee. The sunsets at night are stunning. We're sure you will enjoy your stay!
