This home offered everything we needed and more. The beds are comfortable, the kitchen had everything we needed, and the blackout curtains were great for sleeping. The view from the deck is spectacular - we watched the sunset over the ocean every night. The house is solid too - we could not hear any noise through the walls. Lots of great restaurants within short driving distance.

Wonderful

We loved Miramar. The view was fabulous, we could see the beach below, and the sunsets were wonderful. Jane was very helpful for advice about Costa Rica in general and how to reach the house from San Jose. Edwin was always available, even when we arrived late at night. He had great suggestions for activities, and also came immediately when we had a problem with hot water. Although there was a road below, it did not disturb us. The pool was great.

love it! can't wait to go back!

I spent a week at the Beach Bungalow in July. It is hard to narrow down the best thing about the house..... but if I had to, it would be LOCATION. You can hear and see the waves crashing from the bedrooms. Sitting on the deck, drinking coffee, and doing yoga was the perfect way to start the morning. The town of Dominical has a safe and fun feel to it..... loved surfing and drinking fruit smoothies at the traditional "soda". This house felt like the perfect 'home base' for adventuring. We went to nauyaca falls, the whales tail (soo beautiful), hikes in the mountains, poza azul, and manuel antonio national park. The bungalow was clean with beautiful hardwood furniture, and an artistic feel. ryan, the owner, is knowledgable and really easy to work with. He was really helpful in preparing us for our trip. We are already dreaming about our next trip to the beach bungalow. I would recommend this house to anyone looking to unwind, or head out for an epic adventure!

Lovely View, Great Home

This is not your typical sit around the house and watch TV home. It's great for sleeping, light cooking and sitting on the deck to watching the surf but does not have a central living room. We really didn't need one though because we were usually out enjoying the culture. When we did want to regroup, watching the ocean from the deck was wonderful, even into the evening. There are 3 bathrooms with showers which made it nice for all of us to have our own. The beds were comfortable and very clean. The A/C worked great and were glad we had it. Edwin, the house manager, was terrific to work with. Anything we needed and more he was available to help. He spoke great English too. The house came with a landline phone which was available to use for local calls. The neighbors were great and we felt very safe. It is only a 5 minute walk to the beach but the driveway is extremely steep so you have to be in pretty good shape to walk up it. We choose to drive it. The thing I liked most about this home was the privacy of each of the rooms from each other. It's a great place to share with other couples.

Perfect spot for a relaxing beach vacation!

Casa Miramar was the perfect place to kick off our honeymoon! We spent a week there relaxing, recharging and enjoying all of the beautiful sights in the Dominical area. The house itself is the perfect place to relax, we spent many hours sitting on the deck watching the ocean and enjoying meals and snacks that we prepared using the fully stocked kitchen. A few other things that were great about the place - it was spotlessly cleaned prior to our arrival, the decorations were lovely so we really enjoyed the space and the curtains are nice and dark so you can really block out the early morning light if you want to sleep in (which we did!). The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need to prepare meals and there is a washer and dryer for sandy beach towels. The house is set up on a hill which gives you a feeling of total privacy, but it's not so far up the hill that you feel isolated or that it is inconvenient. There is a really useful house handbook that we referred to in planning our daily activities - the handbook has information from the house owners and reviews from previous guests. There were only 2 of us, but the house would also be great for 4 as there is another very private suite downstairs with a private bathroom. We spent one night in a local hotel and can say that aside from all the other great points about this house, it is a great value. Super clean, comfortable and equipped with modern amenities at a much lower price than local hotels offering similar amenities. I could go on and on about how wonderful the house is - highly highly recommend this place.

Superbe propriété à flanc de montagne à proximité de Dominicale ( petit village avec cool vibe, petits commerces, restaurants et petits marchés artisanal les Vendredis).Les couchés de soleil avec vue sur la plage et l’océan sont à couper le souffle.Chaque chambre possède ça propre salle de bain complète et une ou deux portes patios. À noter que vous vous trouver à proximité d’une artère principale donc du bruit provenant de la route mais le rapport qualité prix et excellent! Nous avons été conseillé par Edwin ( amis des hôtes) pour des activités à proximité et il nous a même mis en communication avec un contact pour une session de pêche qui a été le point tournant de notre voyage, une expérience exceptionnelle! Autre point positif, il y a une épicerie à 5 minutes chose qui est vraiment pratique. Nous aurions peut être apprécié avoir des chaises de plages, cela aurait été pratique et un BBQ mais cela ne semble pas coûtume au Costarica. Malgré cela je recommande cette propriété à 100%

Perfect location

The property was perfect for our family of 6. We had to reschedule our 1st trip due to family emergency and Jan was fabulous and so patient with us . We arrived and met the house manager with keys and got eight to our vacation. Edwin ( house manager ) helped us with everything and was there anytime we needed him . He gave us great recommendations for local sites . House was plenty of space with room to spare for us. Sunsets were amazing ! Def will be staying here on our next stay.

Great place to stay!

If amazing views, and a great home are your thing, then you will enjoy Casa Miramar. There were 6 of us total, my wife, two teenage kids and my elderly parents, and the house was perfect. The location couldn't be better, the pool and large outdoor areas were very nice. Had iguanas, and toucans visiting us daily, and the view is simply the best. Loved our time there.

Terrasse exceptionnelle

Une vue spectaculaire sur les vagues du Pacifique. Maison située à 20 minutes du Parc de la Baleine, une plage quasi déserte entre forêt et Océan et à 1h du parc Manuel Antonio. Un bon compromis. La circulation de la route en contrebas ne gêne pas vraiment

Perfect!

The house is in a perfect location; there's about 8 surf breaks within 3 miles, 2 of which you can walk to (straight up hill on the return so, driving definitely easier). There's a decent market a minute down the road, and 2 big supermercados 7-10 minutes towards uvita. The town is awesome, about 2 minutes by car with awesome restaurants and shops, all a small walk to a beach with really decent waves by the river mouth. The air conditioning in the rooms was VITAL, but ours worked so well that our friends in a nearby house kept sleeping in the bunk room since their AC didn't work as well as ours. Despite the ocean being about 94 degrees in the shallows, the pool was perfectly cool all the time, and we still can't figure out how. There were some bees around the pool pretty constantly, but they never bothered us and we had 7 people in our group all in there at once. Each kitchen has all the needed equipment, so we were able to make breakfast every morning and filet the fish we caught to make fish tacos for everyone. You can definitely hear the cars from the back patio, but it didn't matter because it was such a spectacular view. So many thumbs up, we'd come back in a heartbeat and regretted not staying longer.

Great place for birdwatching! Beautiful ocean view.

I stayed at MiraMar with my adult children - we were 5 adults and one small child. The house has an amazing view out over the ocean and a lovely large deck where you can see lots of birds. It is close to several beaches but not really accessible walking. We found the kitchen to be quite small, although it was well equipped for making basic meals. The pool is a plus. It has air conditioning in the bedrooms which was an advantage. The house has plenty of bathrooms, one for each of the three rooms. The wifi is good. Overall we enjoyed our stay but I need to mention that it is quite close to the main road and we experienced very loud noise from the large trucks passing by, especially over the weeked.

We had a great stay at Casa Mira Mar. My husband and our 2 small children loved every minute of our time in Dominical. The house was well set up for kids and we spent a lot of our time enjoying the view from the upstairs deck. You can see the ocean from each room, which made waking up a pleasure everyday. Edwin, the manager, was a treasure. He helped us plan our adventures and was an mazing resource. We are already planning our next trip!

Dream spot!

Being a wildlife enthusiast, I was pumped to head down to Costa Rica. My friend and I were looking for a spot that not only had amazing wildlife viewing potential, but also close proximity to the beach so we could kick back and enjoy the waves. We ended up deciding on Casa MiraMar and we were both blown away when we arrived. Not only was the house beautiful and spacious, offering daily sunset viewings, but we basically had our own canopy deck for birding! While we were pumped for the close proximity to the amazing wildlife preserve, Hacienda Baru, we were surprised that we didn't even have to leave the house for wildlife viewing opportunities! The beauty of the house, view and proximity to the ocean, and nearby Pacific Lowland Rainforest make this place a no brainer. We will be back!

Very nice place but some things to work on.

Very nice view and a good place to be with family or friends. It have nice rooms and big showers. But The kitchen equipement (glasses,mugs, tupperware...) should be upgrated. The two levels of the house was very useful for everybody. Dominical beach is very beautiful without rocks and very plaisant to swim or surf. We recommend casa MIRA MAR for a lovely trip at Costa Rica. Pura vida!

My husband and I had a wonderful time at Casa MiraMar. The view was amazing. The house was clean. We loved how close the house was to all of the sites and activities we wanted to do. Jane and Ryan (the owners) were very helpful in answering all of our questions before the trip and had great suggestions on places we should experience and see. There is a guest book at the house with others recommendations that we also found extremely helpful. We were able to go on this trip with little planned and had an amazing time.

Million dollar views, relax in comfort!

This rental is one of a kind! We stayed in the large family room with extremely comfortable bunk beds and a private patio, with adjacent second kitchen and private bathroom. The basement bedroom was air conditioned and a cool get away from the Domincal heat! The upstairs has a beautiful porch that overlooks the ocean, and is the perfect bird watching perch. We dined by candlelight in the evening and awoke to a stunning sunset. This rental is perfect for large families or groups of friends, with enough space for all!
