Casa Blanca, Surfside Surroundings

Surfside is a popular expat town on the southern outskirts of Potrero that is known for its restaurants, bars and nightlife, as well as its chill vibe. Surfside is arguably the “restaurant capital” of the long corridor that follows the coastal highway between Huacas in the south and Las Catalinas in the north. If you want to visit just one good restaurant per day here, that might take you a couple of weeks.

This entire coast is one of the most popular destinations in Costa Rica, boasting virtually every adventure that’s popular in this country. You can go fishing, scuba diving, sailing, ziplining, cycling, horseback riding and more.

Not far from here is Las Baulas Marine National Park, a nesting site for sea turtles, and Rincón de la Vieja Volcano National Park, anchored by a live volcano and famous for its thermal activity.

Adventure awaits

Your rental will be stocked with a welcome basket of coffee, coffee filters, salt, pepper, soap, shampoo, conditioner, toilet paper, paper towels, cooking oil and Costa Rica’s famous Salsa Lizano.

We’re always ready to help you book any adventure, including scuba diving, fishing, ocean cruises, horseback riding and ATV tours. Day trips to Rincón de la Vieja National Park, whitewater rafting or local cultural tours – we’re here to offer you unbeatable service! For more info about tours and activities, check out the following link.

We’ll be happy to provide free, competitive quotes for private rental cars, transport to/from the Liberia or San Jose airports, chef services, tours and activities. We are locals and can answer any questions you may have regarding this property and the surrounding area. We are here to make your next Costa Rican getaway unforgettable.

Pet-Friendly Policy

Tap our vacation expertise for free

This property is managed by Special Places of Costa Rica, a leading full-service vacation rental company in Guanacaste. Our rental and concierge team will be available before and during your stay to address any questions or concerns you might have to help make your trip as delightful as possible.

Special Places concierge agents will be happy to assist with the coordination of airport transfers and rentals of cars or golf carts at no additional cost. Let our 10+ years of experience assist you with recommendations for adventure tours, catamaran cruises, restaurants and beaches. We strive to be an invaluable resource to all our customers, making every vacation an unforgettable experience.

The Neighborhood:
Surfside is a charming community on Playa Potrero where many expats live permanently (in particular Canadians and Italians), and where visitors can choose from a wide range of elegant vacation rentals, appetizing restaurants and lively bars.
Located between the towns of Potrero and Flamingo, Surfside is an eminently walkable village where the beach is never more than a few blocks away. Several tour offices offer a variety of adventures by land and sea, and real estate offices will be happy to show you your next home in paradise.
Attractions you won’t want to miss include the beachfront Sailing Center (restaurant, bar, pool and sailing packages); the popular Perlas restaurant (a high-end roadhouse/sports bar with big-screen TVs, live music, and great wings, burgers and pizzas); the Cervecería Independiente craft brewery between the two; and other local eateries including the Shack and the Beach House.
The lines are somewhat blurred between Potrero and Surfside — Potrero (“pasture”) was the original Costa Rican name of both, but Surfside became the popular name when a lot of foreigners began developing its southern outskirts. Most people would probably say that Potrero starts somewhere north of Perlas, and it’s Surfside to the south. In either place, you can’t go wrong.

Getting Around:
Our agents will be happy to assist you with renting a car, giving you the freedom to explore the area where you want, when you want. For short drives to nearby towns or beaches, golf carts are another popular mode of transportation. You can also rent a bicycle to ride around in town or beyond.

We can arrange transfers to and from the airport. Rental cars can also be delivered to your property at no additional cost, allowing you to relax and enjoy the scenery as our private van drives you here from the airport.

Taxis are available but can be a bit hard to find. Many locals use buses to get around, though there are a limited number of routes and times of day when you can catch them. Private shuttles can be a great option for traveling to nearby destinations, and many tour companies offer transportation to and from the tour. Our information brochure will provide you with useful information on local transportation options and points of interest, as well as contact information for taxis and shuttles.

Other Things to Note:
Special Places of Costa Rica is committed to protecting our properties and keeping up-to-date with short-term rental regulations, which is why you will be asked to complete our independent verification. Before your stay begins, you will need to verify your details with us to complete your booking. You will be contacted via email and/or text to complete the verification. You will also be given the choice between paying a refundable deposit or buying a non-refundable damage waiver. We suggest you buy the damage waiver as this protects you in case you cause accidental damage during a booking.

Potrero Pool House

House was well kept and clean. Furniture and appliances could stand to be upgraded. Overall a more than adequate accommodation to stay at while enjoying Potrero and surrounding areas

Easy, comfortable, clean

Quiet area, secure, close to beaches, stores and restaurants. The pool pump is rather loud, but I'm guessing with all the leaves falling in the water a pump wears quickly. Great bird watching in the mornings looking up into the trees.

Not What It Appears

I will start off with the positves. The town of Surfside is wonderful, great beach and lovely people. The house is perfect size for a couple. The neighborhood is very quiet and peaceful. The welcome basket was good with supplies for a short term stay. The towels and linens in the house are of good supply, you will not run out. Renting a golf cart is perfect if you only want to go to surrounding towns. Now for the negatives. The house smelled horrible. The mildew, mold in the house is horrendous. There was a dehumidifier which had to be emptied twice a day. The roof is rotting. The ceiling is beginning to crack and fall apart. Pieces were falling during our stay. The home was not prepared for our stay. The pool had not been serviced. The television did not work. Our person through Special Places, Glenda, was helpful but seemed to be very busy. The kitchen lacked in cookware. Worse part was my husband getting locked in the bathroom, fortunately, he was able to get out by picking the lock. It took several calls to fix the door and it was not fixed by the time we left. We were there for two weeks. This property has MANY problems. Special Places or the owners need to make repairs before they rent this place again. It is such ashame that this place has NOT received good quality care. The online service of SuperHog was NOT a pleasant experience for booking this property. We were not pleased with the property, SuperHog or Special Places. VRBO properties has gone downhill.
