Our family of 8, including my husband and me, and 3 adult sons with girlfriends/wives, stayed at Casa Ohana for 8 nights over Christmas. We had scheduled this trip two years ago, had to cancel last year because of COVID, and finally were able to go! The photos don’t do justice to the property. It is airy, light, visually stunning, with so many spaces to hang out, find a corner to read in, get some work done, or to enjoy the sunsets every night. The kitchen is VERY well stocked, much to the enjoyment of our foodie family. The house doesn’t lack for anything. The beach is just steps away. Kids boogie boarded, walked over to Playa Negra Resort for happy hour, we looked through the tide pools every day for sea life, and one morning we found sea turtle tracks leading from the water right up to the base of the property where they had laid eggs the night before. Mary was incredible to work with - answered emails and calls promptly and helped set up so many things. A masseuse came to the house one morning, guys went deep sea fishing, car rental came right to the house, we had personal chefs come two nights, dinner reservations at a local restaurant, surf lessons… you name it, Mary helped us with it! The fish truck came to our driveway the day before Christmas, and our whole menu changed when we saw the fresh shrimp and other goodies! Two days the bakery truck came - yummy! We felt secure in the gated Rancho Playa Negra community, and loved waving at Luis the security guard every day coming and going. It was a dream vacation, and we will definitely come back to Casa Ohana on our next trip to Costa Rica. Pure Vida!
