About this property

Treat yourself to staying at Casa Playa Blanca situated on one of the most beautiful pristine beaches on the Nicoya Peninsula -- Playa Blanca, nestled between 2 world class surf breaks at Playa Junquillal and Playa Negra! Feel great that you are vacationing in one of the world's blue zones.
Relax on the secluded Playa Blanca with a good book and a cold beverage, or swim and snorkel in the clear water. The beach is accessible directly from the casa by way of a gently sloping private footpath.
Playa Junquillal is a long stretch of beach to the south and is perfect for walking and beach combing. You are likely to see some surfers and perhaps locals fishing off the rocks, and the occasional group of horseback riders, as well as several species of seabirds, and of course, the Turtle Sanctuary which rescues and hatches out turtle eggs. If there is a hatching, you can be part of releasing the tiny creatures into the sea.
The secure gated property offers privacy with direct access to the pristine Playa Blanca as well as a delightfully tranquil Bali style infinity edge pool which offers serenity both day and night for your exclusive use. From the terraces and pool deck you will spot several species of birds and butterflies.

The 2200 square foot home features an open concept living, kitchen and dining area which anchors two full master suites to the north and south. Each suite has a large split system air-conditioning unit, full bath and private outdoor sitting area. The south bedroom has a king size bed and the north bedroom has 2 queen size beds.
For larger groups a guest house on the property that sleeps 4 is available at extra cost. Note: Guest House will never be rented to parties other than those renting the main house.
There is a Pack 'N' Play available upon request.
Weekly housekeeping is included for rentals longer than 7 days. More frequent housekeeping can be arranged at additional cost.

Spend time relaxing in the private tranquil infinity pool overlooking the ocean, unwinding in the shaded hammocks or taking advantage of the many recreational activities available nearby, including:

• swimming
• surfing
• snorkelling
• stand up paddleboarding
• bird watching
• watching and protecting turtles
• adventure tours
• whale watching
• biking
• golf
• fishing

Vraiment tout y est parfait

Nous sommes restés 9 jours à la casa Blanca et nous n'avons que du positif, la maison a vraiment tout ce qu'il nous faut, je n'ai jamais vu une cuisine aussi bien équipée! Le patio est immense avec toujours un coin avec de l'ombre. La mer est à quelques pas, la plage est très belle et presque privée. La piscine est vraiment belle et plus grande que ce qu’il paraît sur les photos. Bref je la recommande a 100%.

Definitely a slice of paradise

My Wife and I and another couple spent 2 weeks at Casa Playa Blanca, and it was everything we wanted. The house itself is fine, ocean views from the bedrooms, beds are comfortable, water is hot, nothing that amazing though until you step outside. The huge patio area and large pool are where we spent most of our time. There was almost always some shade to be found, but the pool itself is really in direct sun for most of the day. And then there is the beach! the path to the beach is not far at all, maybe 80ft from the house. Playa Blanca is a gorgeous beach but there are many rocks, so we didn't enjoy swimming there too much but still walked down to enjoy most sunsets. We did not have a 4x4 and we were fine in the dry season although like most of Costa Rica, some of the roads are an adventure. There are lots of good restaurants within about 15mins and a decent supermercado about 7 minutes away. The biggest con for us about Casa Playa Blanca is that you need to have a car to do anything, but totally worth it for us to have a private slice of paradise. Oh, and there is a cat. nice enough but awfully loud when she wants to get fed lol, but she didn't bother us at all.

Great spot in the beach!

We enjoyed our stay at this property. The pool and patio area are excellent. The house is spacious and served our basic needs with a fully stocked kitchen. While the beach is quite steep for walking, accessible beached are nearby and easily accessed.

Pool Side Perfection

We enjoyed a wonderful week at Playa Blanca. The home was wonderfully equipped with everything we needed. Both bedroom wings were quiet, well appointed, and the AC never failed. The instructions for using the home were very well detailed and Mary the manager was always just a phone call away and she did a great job lining up entertainment in the area. The incredible beach access was so handy and the pool deck was perfect when we were not at the beach. Felix the guard cat was a hoot!

About the host

What makes this property unique

Casa Playa Blanca is unique because it is private and located on a quiet Pacific Ocean beach. Guests have exclusive use of the property unlike staying at a hotel or condo!
The terrace architecture, landscaping and ocean views create a desirable space to find your Costa Rican Pura Vida. Listening to the many species of birds with the calming background sound of the waves makes it an amazing place to relax.
The sunsets are spectacular whether watching from the sand on Playa Blanca or from the lounge furniture on the deck of your very own infinity edge Bali style swimming pool.
