What.a.week. Our family had to make a last minute change in accommodations and we’re so glad we did! As a family reunion type of group, having separate casitas was amazing and everyone got their own little space. The newly built Monkey Lounge was awesome for hanging out, watching TV, playing poker, and watching for monkeys. The property itself is very cool and they’re constantly making additions and improvements. It’s Costa Rica—it’s not perfect, but this team is ready to respond. The biggest thing? This is more like a small resort vs your typical rental. With on-property staff, Mario (security), Julianna and Kina (housekeepers/cooks/do anything!), Lani (property manager), Kassandra (organizer of all the things) and Matt (owner), we were so spoiled. They were willing to jump in and help with dishes, clean the rooms midweek, sweep, take out trash—all of the things you don’t want to do on vacation. Mario even cleaned the monkey poop off our rental before we left. Kina made some amazing breakfasts, Julianna literally took a dirty glass from my hand and insisted on doing it. So very, very grateful to the whole team. The only thing we wished would have been access to the “staff kitchen.” If trying to cook on your own for a large group, it’s difficult with no oven, just an outdoor cooktop and counter space. We did utilize and grill and made it work! Cooking is easy in your room if just making for a few. Playa Potrero is such a walkable little town, too! Grateful.
