Beachfront respite!

This property is beautiful inside and out. We were a party of 10 and used the entire property including the 2 bedroom casita. There was plenty of room for our group with a beautiful entertainment area and deck on the top floor. The kitchen was well stocked and very functional. We had a couple of issues with bathrooms caused by an unusual storm system and excessive rain- problem was resolved immediately. Host was easy to communicate with and responded in a timely manner. Restaurants and convenience store within walking distance. Only recommendation would be to include a manual on appliance instructions, air conditioning system and lightning controls.

Magical stay in paradise

The house was amazing and the hosts were very responsive and went above and beyond to make sure our stay was perfect. The location was very central to everything we wanted to see and do. We had an amazing time just hanging out in the pool, wandering the beach and playing ping pong in the game room. I would highly recommend this house to anyone.

Amazing place for a family vacation!

The house was perfect for our family of 9. Between the beach outside the fence and the pool( which had a shallow area for our 2 younger grandchildren), there was always something to do. And the neighborhood offered several choices for great local cuisine!

Great property on the beach

This property was extremely comfortable for our group. The rooms are spacious, the house is well laid out and clean. The pool area is very nice with a BBQ and large buffet style table. the beach is just behind the house with beautiful views and sounds at all times. The house is adjacent to a sister property that is a small hotel and the amenities/services extend to this property. The host was available and helpful. would stay here again

Costa Rica Birthday and Graduation Trip

I have to start by Saying thank you... Juan/ Willy / Julie and everyone at the hermosa Beach house made our stay wonderful. This place is amazing, Julie was very helpful with whatever questions we had prior to getting there. Once we were there we had a few request for adventures and Juan and Willy were right there to handle what ever we needed. On the 3rd day My daughter turned 18 and these guys put together a dinner and even rounded up a Birthday cake for Her. Our trip was amazing due to these guys and this place ...... We will def be making this a regular Vacation .

50th Birthday

I had an AMAZING time in Costa Rica... Julie is wonderful and very helpful. She was on POINT with our excursions, she told us where everything was located. The pool guy came over everyday to clean out the pool. The front desk lady was very friendly, the entire staff actually. We talked about going back we enjoyed it so much.

Holiday in Costa Rica

The house & Costa Rica were a perfect match for our family of 13. We had a few problems that were quickly resolved. The help with special excursions were exceptional. The two catered dinners were a highlight for the entire family. The rainforest on one side & the gorgeous ocean on the other was great. We would return & recommend this home. Thank you.

Week in Paradise!

Thank you to Julie and her team for a wonderful week in Costa Rica. The home is absolutely beautiful and is actually better than it appears in the photos! The pool was warm and welcoming and the views could not be beat. We had a few minor issues, but our hosts were responsive and quick to fix any problems. We were a group of five couples and there was plenty of room to spead out or gather as we wanted. The area was very safe and we enjoyed several of the bars/restaurants within walking distance. We were also a close drive to Jaco and several of our excursions, one of which our host helped us arrange. We would highly recommend this property. Thank you again for hosting us!

Awesome beach house

An awesome house right on the beach. Awesome sunset views on the second floor is a perfect way to end the day. The beautiful black sand beach is right outside the back gate and awesome beach bars and restaurants are just a short walk away. You can go in the water but I don't suggest going in too deep due to extremely dangerous rip tide (warnings posted at actual beach entrance). The owners are easily contacted and live close by so they are around for any questions or help. Can't wait to go back!

More than a place to stay!

Miss Julie does not provide a place to stay in Costa Rica, she provide THE Costa Rica hospitality experience everyone is looking for. She and her staff were there 24 hours a day and always available to us. We booked a trip amost every day, should say Miss Julie booked a trip almost everyday for us. We never had a problem or issue wirh any of the trips she sent us on. We checked with her before we did anything, from groceries to souvenirs, her expertise led us to the best places. The breakfasts she served were excellent and always on-time. The next time we go, we will always stay with her or who she recommends. You cannot go wrong with Julie, either this house or her hotel next door. Both beautiful properties, and hands down the best service in Costa Rica!!!! Thank you for giving us a truly memorable experience!!

Wonderful stay

A supremely comfortable stay for a family get together of 8 people. Two couples and two singles in the main house with their own bedrooms and baths, two nieces shared the casita with their own bedrooms and shared bath. Very comfortable furniture in the main open room for relaxing and huge round dining table perfect for meals and games. Outside space also great. Large covered area with huge rectangular table, plus smaller round table. Pool is large and cleaned daily. Walk out back gate to beach/ocean. Strong waves but perfectly suitable for swimming and surfing in its warm waters. Beach very uncrowded, able to walk for well over a mile on smooth, soft sand. House has second floor equipped with pool and ping pong table, foosball, large bathroom, set of bunk beds. Large balcony off second floor also. There are spaces on both floors with couches and TVs which we didn’t use. Also washer and dryer. House was very clean upon entrance, kitchen decently equipped. Potential improvements: replacing dishwasher-quite old and only washes with fair effectiveness; newer and better pots and pans; providing soap for handwashing dishes; providing additional supplies of toilet paper and paper towels; large doors leading to patio could benefit from oversized handles inside and outside; additional boogie boards. None of these potential improvements detracted from a superbly comfortable stay. A special shout-out to Juan who was available at seemingly all times for assistance and questions.

Great Experience and Incredible Property

I have had the pleasure of renting a house in Jaco over 10 times, but this one truly stands out. It exceeded all of my expectations and checked off every box on my list. The location is unbeatable, just minutes from Jaco and directly on the stunning Hermosa beach, which boasts incredible waves and breathtaking views. The house itself is perfect for any occasion, as it can comfortably accommodate a large group of people. I recently stayed here for a bachelor party and was blown away from the moment we walked in. The pictures simply do not do it justice. The living spaces are much larger than we anticipated and the house is beautifully designed. Prior to our arrival, the owner Julie reached out to ensure that we had everything we needed and made it clear that she was available if we needed anything during our stay. When we did have questions or requests, Julie was quick to respond and fulfill our needs. I highly recommend this house and cannot wait to return soon.

More Than $15k of Valuables Stolen During Our Stay

I had my wedding at the Hermosa beach house hotel next door and I stayed in this house with my bridal party. During the wedding, we were literally next door eating dinner outside with the house in view, three men broke into the house through a window (all doors and windows were locked) and stole all of our valuable items including laptops, cell phones, passports, money, jewelry, bags, headphones, cologne, anything worth value. Over $15,000 in items stolen from 8 of us staying at the house. We were warned not to leave anything outside and were told people might wander up from the beach and take it, but we were never warned that something like this might happen. It felt like we had been watched the whole time, the timing of everything felt very planned as me and my guests were frequently going in and out of the house during the wedding except for when we were eating dinner. The window they broke into was the ONLY window in the entire house that didn’t have a stick in it. I couldn’t sleep afterwards knowing what had happened. The property owner/ manager was not very helpful and didn’t offer any sort of reimbursement or to file a claim with insurance. Overall, the wedding was great but this ruined the whole trip for everyone that was a victim. The thieves were on camera and we filed a police report but nothing came of it. The property manager / owner was not very helpful. We even had people trying to scam us saying they had our stuff and if we sent them money they would give our stuff back. Use caution if you stay here.

Home on the Pacific - Costa Rica

Our Costa Rica vacation was 15 members from two different families all together in Playa Hermosa. The house was fantastic, in a great location, overlooking a gorgeous beach on the Pacific Ocean. The bedrooms, living areas and kitchen are all very functional and well finished. The home is far enough away from Jaco for some peace and quiet; however, there are plenty of restaurants, a market and some take out within walking distance. Jaco is a short 15 minute drive. The home amenities and service were excellent - the AC kept us cool and the view from the upstairs balcony - the full width of the house - was amazing. I would recommend Playa Hermosa and we would absolutely stay again."
