About this property

Playa Grande Loft 3 - Long Stays Welcome - Full Kitchen - Surf & Remote Work

Not every trip needs an itinerary. Sometimes the best plan is a good kitchen, fast WiFi, a short walk to the beach, and nowhere you have to be.

Loft 3 is a quiet, well-appointed unit on a quiet private road just off Playa Grande's main entrance — 10 minutes on foot from one of Costa Rica's top surf breaks and the protected shoreline of Las Baulas National Marine Park. It's the unit guests book for a week and extend to a month. Once you settle in, leaving gets harder.

The loft has a queen bed and twin bed (sleeps 3), full kitchen, Starlink high-speed WiFi, air conditioning, and Smart TV. Outside, your patio with two chairs is where the mornings go. The shared laundry room is steps away between Units 2 and 3, the shared outdoor shower is in the breezeway next door for post-surf rinse-offs, and surfboard storage is out back. Dedicated parking right out front.

The property consists of two modern buildings side by side — five individual loft apartments total, each with its own private entrance. Relaxed and semi-private — you're part of a small community without it ever feeling like it.

Playa Grande is the quieter, less crowded alternative to nearby Tamarindo — same stunning Pacific coastline, same world-class surf, without the noise. The beach sits within Las Baulas National Marine Park, where leatherback sea turtles nest seasonally and howler monkeys announce the sunrise from the treeline.

Everything you need is walkable — Pots & Bowls for fresh bowls and smoothies, a local bakery, Beach Break Surf Cafe, surf rentals, and several restaurants. Stock your kitchen at the newly opened Willsofy Supermarket, a full-service market with meat, canned goods, and everyday essentials just a short walk away. The Store, a neighborhood corner market next to the pharmacy, is perfect for personal items and a quick grocery run. There's also a local fruit stand nearby for fresh produce when the season is right. Tamarindo is 20 minutes by car from additional dining and nightlife. Liberia International Airport (LIR) is approximately 55 minutes away.

A few things that make the stay easier: complimentary mid-stay cleaning upon request, motorcycle and golf cart rentals arranged through our local partner Playa Grande Rentals and Tours, yoga nearby, and a complimentary Pack 'n Play available for families traveling with little ones — just ask.

Most guests who book a weekend end up extending. Weekly and monthly discounts available — monthly guests receive priority on their preferred dates. No hidden fees — the price you see is the price you pay.

We loved the our stay! Oulr host, Courtney was fantastic. She was quick to reply and help us with questions. Our unit was ultra clean, new and modern.We loved the fact that within 100 metres we had great restaurants and a bakery.

About the host

Hosted by Courtney McAdams

Host profile image
Hosting is more than providing a place to sleep — for us, it’s about creating a space where people can truly feel comfortable, relaxed, and supported while they explore a new destination. We’re a family-run hosting team that genuinely enjoys welcoming guests from all over the world and helping them experience Costa Rica in a way that feels easy, safe, and memorable.

We believe the best stays happen when guests feel at home but also cared for. That’s why we focus on clear communication, thoughtful details, and spaces that are both functional and inviting. Whether you’re traveling for relaxation, adventure, work, or a mix of all three, our goal is to make your stay seamless from booking to checkout.

Outside of hosting, we love being outdoors, staying active, and spending time near the ocean. Costa Rica’s lifestyle, nature, and sense of balance are what drew us here, and those values influence how we host. We design our spaces with comfort, efficiency, and calm in mind — fast WiFi for remote work, well-equipped kitchens for longer stays, and cozy areas to unwind after a day at the beach.

We also understand the importance of trust when booking a vacation rental. Cleanliness, safety, and reliability are priorities for us. Our property is professionally maintained, thoughtfully furnished, and regularly inspected to ensure everything is in good working order. We want guests to arrive feeling confident that they’ve made the right choice.

Most of all, we want you to feel welcome. Whether you stay a few nights or several months, our hope is that you leave feeling rested, inspired, and already thinking about your next visit.

Why they chose this property

Playa Grande stood out to us immediately because it offers something increasingly rare: a peaceful coastal environment that still feels connected and convenient. It’s the kind of place where you can slow down, enjoy nature, and experience Costa Rica authentically — without feeling isolated or disconnected.

What we love most about this neighborhood is its balance. Playa Grande is calm and laid-back, yet it has everything guests need within walking distance. Local cafés, restaurants, bakeries, and small markets are just steps away, allowing guests to enjoy daily life without relying heavily on a car. At the same time, the neighborhood never feels crowded or overdeveloped.

Playa Grande Beach is one of the area’s greatest highlights. Known for its wide shoreline, beautiful sunsets, and excellent surf conditions, it’s also part of Las Baulas National Marine Park — a protected area where leatherback turtles nest seasonally. This conservation focus helps preserve the natural beauty of the area and keeps development thoughtful and low-impact.

The neighborhood appeals to a wide range of travelers. Surfers appreciate the consistent waves, families enjoy the open beach and safe environment, digital nomads love the peaceful setting paired with reliable internet, and nature lovers value the proximity to wildlife and outdoor activities. It’s a place where you can be active or completely unplug — sometimes both in the same day.

Playa Grande also feels genuinely welcoming. The community is friendly, international, and respectful, creating an environment where guests feel comfortable and safe. There’s a strong sense of pride in the area, and that care shows in how the neighborhood is maintained.

What makes this property unique

What makes our property special is not just the location, but the way it’s designed to support different types of travelers — all within one thoughtfully planned space. Rather than a single large home, our property consists of multiple private lofts, creating a boutique, micro-resort feel that offers both privacy and flexibility.

Each loft is fully furnished and self-contained, with its own kitchen, bathroom, air conditioning, and living space. This setup allows guests to enjoy independence while still being part of a cohesive property. It’s ideal for couples, families traveling together, friend groups, retreats, or remote work teams who want shared proximity without sacrificing personal space.

The layout is especially unique because it supports multiple booking styles. Guests can rent a single loft, book two units together, or reserve the entire property for larger groups. This flexibility is rare and allows travelers to choose exactly the level of privacy and space they need.

Another standout feature is how well the property supports longer stays and remote work. Reliable high-speed WiFi, comfortable furnishings, functional kitchens, and a calm environment make it easy to settle in for weeks at a time. Many guests appreciate that they can work efficiently during the day and still enjoy the beach, restaurants, and sunsets just steps away.

Finally, what truly makes the property unique is how it blends convenience, privacy, and atmosphere. Guests love that they can walk to restaurants, stroll to the beach, enjoy peaceful evenings, and still feel connected to the energy of the area. It’s a rare combination that works equally well for short vacations and extended stays.

Our goal was to create a property that feels welcoming, flexible, and easy — a place that adapts to the way people actually travel. That’s what sets it apart.
