Casa Provence - in Exciting Playas Del Coco

We had such a great time and this house was great. The house is very clean it was easy to communicate with the property manager. The local was excellent being close to the beach, bars, restaurants, the airport, and several grocery stores. The view from the front balcony is breath taking. I would absolutely stay here again when visiting Costa Rica!

Casa Provence was absolutely an amazing property. In the days leading up to our trip Liz and Bill were in contact with us, giving suggestions for activities in the area. They let us know their in-town property manager would be meeting us to take us to the house. This was extremely helpful seeing as addresses in Costa Rica are not like they are in the states. Once we met Diego, the property manager, he spent time giving us the low down on the house and local area. The house was clean, beds were comfortable, pool was sparkling and the view was breathtaking. The on site laundry was a nice perk too! We enjoyed swimming in the pool with the resident iguana nearby and enjoyed rainy nights on the porch. The few times we cooked at the house, all the necessities were at our disposal. We grilled out and had no problems using the inside stovetop. We don’t have anything negative to say about Casa Provence. If you are looking for an extremely nice house with a knowledgeable property manager, informative owners, clean amenities and fun local activities, look no further than staying at the Casa Provence. You will not be disappointed!

We had a great time, ,property was beautifully placed with good scenery and well landscaped. We would go back and rent this property again, in fact we are trying to rent it for a month next year. The only suggestions we have is that there be a spare propane tank as we ran out on a Sunday and we couldn’t get any. And change the burned out lights which there was three or four of them. Also but not inportan need some sharp knives. We called the property manager to tell him we didn’t have enough lounge chairs around the pool and he must’ve called the owners because the owner showed up and we met them and they’re fantastic people they brought over two chairs for us as we asked. Pool was kept good and clean crystal clear water. The maid came after our first week and she did a fantastic job cleaning the house she must’ve been there for over six hours . House is close to shopping and restaurants,the only problem was going up and down them hills but then again we could take a taxi for $1.62 American. Plenty to do in the area.

The house met our needs. It is very close to the downtown area, but away from the main street for some quiet. The hills and access are steep, so walking is a challenge and a car is really necessary to explore the area and nearby beaches. Cocos is more developed than I thought and there were more neighbors than I had hoped for. The house is relatively private, but the porches/patio and pool are more exposed, of course. One of the three bedrooms is much smaller than the others, and two bedrooms are only accessed from the exterior, only the master is accessed via a steep set of stairs inside. It worked for our group, but might not work for a family with younger kids or anyone with mobility issues. We cooked many of our meals in the small kitchen, but clearly the idea is to enjoy nearby restaurants. It was stocked with the basic tools, but no staple ingredients. Luckily, there is a grocery store right across the street. I overall, the house worked for us and was very convenient to town. It allowed us to try restaurants, explore beaches, and relax at the house, which is what we were looking for.

We had a tremendous time, it was during peak season so it was a little bit expensive but it was fantastic and I wouldn't take back even one second of it. I will say I caught the ten smallest fish I've ever seen but they were the first last and biggest fish on the boat. If you have trouble with stairs, it may be not the right house for you because even with a high powered golf cart getting into the house there are still many stairs to climb but the pool and the view more than make up for it
