Everything about this property is amazing!We had 19 people and there was plenty of room.Our house mom was amazing as well!

What an incredible home and location!! A short, 3-minute walk from the beach and a world-class surf break, and less than a 5-minute walk to great restaurants and bars. RipJack is super close, and we loved having a post-beach meal while watching the howler monkeys with a cocktail. Also, El Huerto is some of the best pizza we've had anywhere! The house is even better in person, with no attention to detail spared. It was amazing having the beach cruiser bikes available to cruise around on the sand, and we had an absolute blast in the pool. Tomas, our concierge, helped make everything easy for us, from our airport transfers to our golf cart rental (highly recommended if you want to easily cross over to Tamarindo on the water taxi). Emily, our house mom, had cocktails and fresh fruit ready for us our whole stay, while keeping everything immaculately tidy. 10/10: We can't wait to come back again with our familia!

The home was beautiful and exactly as advertised! Everything was clean and organized for us when we arrived -- it truly felt like walking into a resort. The host connected us to great local providers for an in-home chef, as well as a beautiful sunset cruise. The house mom, Jema, was also so kind and helpful during our stay! We would definitely stay again.

Great time! House was beautiful, breathtaking! We were so spoiled by Anna the house mama! She cooked and cleaned and made yummy drinks for us! Tomas was great too, helping us with small details along the way! The house is close to the beach. We liked having the bikes to ride to the beach and even drove the car down to avoid the walk with some of the family that couldn’t walk that far. Not quite on the beach but so close and no complaints from us! Hope to be back! Pura Vida!

This was an unforgettable vacation for our family! We had plenty of room and our kids will forever talk about Anna the house mama that totally spoiled us with great breakfasts and smoothies! The beach is beautiful, waves are great! It was a little trek to the beach. We ended up driving or riding the bikes which was super nice to have. Lots of cute shops and places to eat close by. We miss you Anna already!!

This property in Playa Grande was an excellent amount of space for our group of 19. The pools were thoroughly enjoyed, the air conditioning was a must and worked well, and we enjoyed preparing meals in the beautiful kitchen and living space.

We stayed at Casa La Familia for my daughter's wedding. this house is nothing short of absolutely spectacular. it is equipped with everything you could possibly need and the house mom was kind and gracious and did a wonderful job. this house is even more beautiful than the pictures show. the location was wonderful with just a short 5 minute walk to the beach and some really great restaurants. if you're visiting Playa Grande and have a large family I highly recommend this house.

Wonderful Service
We had an amazing stay at Casa La Familia, and a huge part of that was thanks to Alejandra Vargas, our wonderful house mom. From the very first day, Alejandra helped us with everything we needed and truly made us feel at home. Every morning she prepared a delicious breakfast for us, helped us with laundry, and was always attentive to every detail. She even took the time to teach us how to fold the towels perfectly — a small gesture that shows how much she cares. She was also incredibly kind, patient, and attentive with our children, always making them feel comfortable and well cared for. Alejandra is warm, thoughtful, and truly exceptional. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.
