About the host

Hosted by Mike Malone

Host profile image
I fell in love with Costa Rica during my first visit here in 2005. Casa Columbine is named after the state flower of Colorado, and is a life long dream come t0 have my very own beach home! I first visited Potrero in February 2015, and from the first view of the bay from Las Brisas Bar, and throughout my week here, it felt right. There is a laid-back, authentic, quiet, and friendly feeling to this place that is so refreshing.

We look forward to many happy and healthy times here with family and friends, and we look forward to sharing such a special place with you! Check out our “Activities” page for our best information and recommendations for you!

We hope you enjoy the ease and tranquility of Casa Columbine. Cheers to the good life!

Pura Vida! from Mike
