Guestbook comments from the owner
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 week ago for a stay in November 2014
My Wife and I totally enjoyed the 2 weeks we spent Casa del Sol, Condo #17, November 1 - 15, 2014, the owner Daphne was so helpful, providing us we advise on restaurants, tours, groceries stores and different beaches in the area to visit. The pictures provided on the web site do not do justice to this beautiful unit; the condo is fantastic, tastefully decorated with a clean modern look. It has all the conveniences of home, full size stainless appliances, including stove, fridge, microwave, dishwasher and washer and dryer, everything worked perfectly. Beds were very comfortable with fresh crisp clean sheets, plenty of towels including beach towels. We did a lot of our meals in the condo and enjoyed those meals while sitting on the covered outside patio, listening to howler monkeys at times when they paid us a visit. Upon arrival we were assisted by security, providing us with the key and then taking us to the unit. The pool and grounds are very clean and well maintained, the pool is steps from the condo and we spent many hours enjoying it. The condo complex has 24 hour security with a gated entry, providing peace of mind, although we never felt unsafe in the area, in fact we found ourselves spending much of our time wondering the beaches in the area enjoying long walks, or just strolling around the streets. There are many great dining options in the area, some are walkable from the condo others not so much, we did have a rental car for the 2 weeks we were there and we enjoyed the option of driving to nearby beaches and restaurants. Playa Penca beach is a short walk from the condo it is very clean with not many people on it, some days we were the only ones on the beach, this may have been due to the low season. The condo exceeded our expectation in every way, and we would highly recommend it to anyone considering a vacation in that area, the owner Daphne was a great help to us, and even called us on the condo phone to ensure all was good!!! It just doesn't get better the Casa del Sol!!! If you have any questions please feel free to contact us, we would be glad to help.

Reviews
Exceptional!
5/5 -
(8 traveler reviews)
Bright and beautiful- best accommodations in CR
I have traveled extensively in Central America and Casa del Sol was far and away the best place I have ever stayed. The condo was exceptional and exceeded expectations. It was sparkling clean with all the amenities you would need to cook for a family. A very home-y feel! The beds were exceptionally comfortable and the rooms had a bright and airy feel to them. The pool was a wonderful bonus for the children and adults- very well maintained as was the beautiful, tropical garden. Reynaldo- the friendly man at the security gate- learned all of our names and greeted us warmly whenever we passed through.
Penca beach- just up the road- is a white sand paradise. We frequented "Pablo's"- a tiny restaurant right on Penca serving cappuccinos in the morning and sandwiches and beer all day long. For dinner we went to "Sol y Mar" a decently priced restaurant with delicious food.
Daphne is a wonderfully attentive host who gave us many helpful suggestions for things to do and places to eat. She responded to all inquiries promptly and helped to make our vacation perfect.
Great Property, clean well equipped fantastic place.
We spent four days at Potrero in this wonderful place. The condo is very well equipped and maintained. You have the beach less than a mile away and a nice swimming pool inside the property. Easy access and everything as stated in the listing. Fully recommended.
We were a six person party ranging from 3 to 70 and everyone had a great time.
Costa Rican experience with the comforts of home!
Wow, what a spot!
We left the crowds and the tourist trap of Tamarindo and arrived in the little village of Potrero. Near the church and the active community soccer field was our oasis for the next week of our stay in Costa Rica. This gated complex was staffed with friendly security who always had a wave and a smile during our comings and goings.
The locals made us feel like we were truly welcomed in Costa Rica and we experienced first hand all the beauty we had heard about the people of this country.
We strolled the deserted white sand beaches of Penca and Prietta (linked by a scenic pathway) enjoyed the pool, and watched the howler monkeys in the nearby tress.
The condo itself offered all the conveniences of home with high speed wireless internet allowing all of us to keep in touch with social and business networks back home. The beds were comfy , kitchen fully stocked with everything we needed and the patio was a shady delight to have morning coffee or escape the afternoon sun.
We loved this casual non tourist feeling location and quickly settled in, enjoying typical local restaurants the nearby gelato shop as well as many restaurants in the area that fulfilled everyone's food requirements.
Thank you Daphne for all your amazing suggestions of what to do and see...we will definitely recommend this spot to our friends and hope to return again soon.
Wonderful Condo!
We had a wonderful time at this condo. From the moment we opened the front door, we were in awe. The place smelled so good and it was spotless. The color scheme was beautiful, as well as all the decorations throughout the place. It was very cozy and it felt a lot like home. The beds were so comfortable (even the sofabed) -the most comfortable beds we had during our stay in Costa Rica ;-D. The kitchen had everything we could possibly need. The swimming pool was a very popular place with our kids, and the jacuzzi in the pool was amazing. The location within walking distance of La Penca and local supermarkets and restaurants was so convenient. We felt safe at all times and enjoyed having the condo -and the beach!- pretty much to ourselves. We are already set on going back next summer. You'll be hearing from us next year!
Thank you for your patience answering our never ending questions. Your condo was much more than what we were expecting. You have a very beautiful place.
Take care and we'll contact you sometime next year.
Wonderful family vacations
To enjoy vacations with children (15,11 and 2yrs) is really a big challenge, and this property is the perfect location to enjoy by all family members, the condo is set like our home, after visiting the beaches the kids enjoyed the pool and watching TV, including internet access. The hospitality from Daphne exceeded my expectations. The experience was great due to close distance of nice beaches like Playa Grande, Tamarindo, Playa Langosta and others.
I enjoyed riding my Mountain Bike and relaxed later in the jacuzzi hearing the birds and monkeys during the sunset.
The time there was wonderful. I recommend this property and if you love the outdoor sports, you can bring your Mountain Bike; or just practice hiking, swimming, kayaking (you can rent there).
Perfect vacation spot
A perfect spot for a family vacation away from it all. This house sits in a perfect little nook near town, beaches and all amenities. The compound has a beautiful and family friendly pool and garden landscape where small ones can roam safely and freely. The house is large, welcoming and provides all that one needs for their vacation. Redefines relaxation.
