Casa Palmeras


There is nowhere in the world quite like Costa Rica. And no better place to absorb its beauty than our lovingly remodeled vacation rental in the rainforest, Casa Palmeras. With 2500 sq. ft. of interior living space, this standalone rental home shares no spaces or walls with anyone else.

In fact, it is one of the most private properties at Palmas Pacifica, a green, gated community in the jungle near Quepos.

We bought this home from its former owners in 2022 and went right to work on improvements, updating all three bedrooms and bathrooms, as well as the living and dining area. We added natural stone throughout and furnished with hardwoods to create a tranquil retreat that is at one with its beautiful surroundings.

Bedrooms & Bathrooms

Three bedroom suites at Casa Palmeras include one King, one Queen and one Full —one on the bottom floor and two bedrooms upstairs. Each bedroom has its own en-suite bath, and all have large windows that let in views of the palm trees and pool area.

All three designer bathrooms have been completely remodeled and feature gorgeous walk-in showers with natural stonework, bowl sinks, and large vanities.

Kitchen & Dining

The home’s fully equipped kitchen makes cooking easy, with spacious granite countertops and all appliances, including a dishwasher for easy cleanup. A big window over the sink looks out at the dazzling pool area, where you’ll find another option for cooking: a stainless gas grill and sink area, plus a brick pizza oven.

Have dinner al fresco at the outdoor table by the pool, or sit down to the custom wood dining table with six ornate chairs, located right near the kitchen for easy serving.

Other perks include fans throughout the home, A/C in each bedroom and high speed, fiber optic internet for Zoom meetings and streaming.

A Day at Casa Palmeras

Wake up in a pillow-soft bed, brew a mug of tea or Costa Rican coffee, and head out to the balcony or patio to watch and listen as the jungle pulses to life. The lush, native flora surrounding Casa Palmeras regularly attracts toucans, butterflies, monkeys, iguanas and hummingbirds.

Then take a 15-minute ride in your rental car or a taxi to Quepos marina or Manuel Antonio National Park and its legendary beaches. Spend the day deeply relaxing into the present moment—it’s easy to do when you’re immersed in some of the most exquisite, untouched natural beauty in the world! Stop for ceviche and a chilled cocktail in Quepos before heading home.

TIP: Need help planning an excursion or picking a restaurant? Talk to your concierge at Palmas Pacifica, who is available to help book tours and activities, make restaurant recommendations, arrange for a spa day for you, share general info about the area and more!

Returning after your adventures will be a welcome part of the day. Rinse away the saltwater in one of the natural stone showers, then step onto your pool patio, which is surrounded by leafy palms and fragrant flowers. Float on your back and listen to the birdsong that fills the trees. The homes at Palmas Pacifica are situated with distance between each other, so you can lose yourself entirely in your safe surroundings.

For dinner, bring ingredients to the gas grill and prepare them poolside. Or opt for private chef services at your villa! The talented personal chefs at Palmas Pacifica will arrive and create fresh, family-style meals for your entire group.

Sit down to an al fresco meal on the patio or head inside to the table adjacent to the kitchen.

After the sun sets, try a Night Jungle tour, which leaves right from Palmas Pacifica and is within walking distance of Casa Palmeras. Also within walking distance are the Butterfly Research Center and a Chocolate Tour.

Other things to note

- Damages to the property or its content that occur during your stay will be charged to you (this may be covered by Airbnb's AirCover, but we must explain this in our description so you are informed).

- Renting a car is not necessary, but it's recommended: we are 2km from downtown Quepos, so it's not really walking distance, but you can rely on our local taxis to get around, they are available 24/7. Tours will pick you up at the house.
