Gated Beachfront Community- Huge Natural Pool- TRIPLE Suites Birders delight!

Introducing Las Lagunas, a charming two-story retreat, one home away from the breathtaking beach and natural pools of Playa Chiquita. This private home sleeps eight comfortably, with three bedrooms, four baths and an inflatable mattress if requested. The home exudes indoor-outdoor living with a wall of glass facing the jungle-like gardens and enormous outdoor natural pool, filtered by the surrounding plant life, with swim zone, sun shelf, and lilypad seating. A school of angel fish can be seen flitting through the crystal clear water. Wrap around decking with hammocks adjacent to the home offers ample space for lounging, sitting, reading, socializing and relaxation.

Located in a private gated community, Las Lagunas offers the perfect blend of comfort and convenience. A quick 2-minute stroll brings you to the pristine shores and natural pools of playa Chiquita, and a short walk from your front door leads you to a number of delicious cafes, restaurants and shops. A scenic 15-20 minute bike ride takes you into town, where an array of dining choices and adventure awaits.

Wildlife enthusiasts rejoice! Playa Chiquita is a haven for biodiversity, with many sightings of tropical birds, playful monkeys and abundant plant life with colorful butterflies like the Blue Morpho right outside your doorstep. Keep your eyes peeled for sloths lazily hanging from the trees or listen for the melodic calls of howler monkeys echoing through the jungle.

Inside the home, you'll find an open airy living space endowed with beautiful furnishings, interesting art and thoughtful touches throughout. The well-appointed kitchen opens into a spacious living and dining area, ideal for gatherings and meals. Upstairs, inviting bedrooms feature plush bedding and large windows to invite the refreshing breeze. Outside the upstairs bedrooms is a screened porch, perfect for a morning coffee or an evening beverage looking out at the pool and gardens, and the perfect lookout to see some of the amazing birdlife.

Outside, a wraparound porch beckons for lazy afternoons in rocking chairs or peaceful hammock naps. Enjoy alfresco dining under the stars, serenaded by the soothing sounds of the ocean.

Las Lagunas provides all the comforts of home, including high-speed internet, Smart TV's in the living room and master bedroom, luxury linens, and a fully-equipped kitchen. For added convenience, a washer/dryer, hairdryer, and beach chairs are also provided for your use.

Fabulous Open Air Villa

Highly recommend for your stay near Puerto Viejo! The property team is incredibly kind and communicative. The area is perfect, as it’s about 10 min drive from the main town so a bit quieter but still with things to do. It’s on a side road with a path directly to the beach. They even had beach chairs and towels which came in handy. When we had a small issue with the dryer, they sent someone right away. I honestly wish we had more time in Costa Rica just to relax on the property!

Thankful to that beautiful house.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house is wonderful! Everything about it. We visited at a hard time in my life and it was the perfect peaceful place surrounded by nature. Little animals in the yard, birds everywhere, beautifully landscaped. The house itself was airy, which I appreciated so much! I can’t stand feeling closed in. Screened window to open up and hunker down with tea. It was away from the hustle north and yet so close to the national parks. The checkin was great, and they were really helpful. The set up out back for dealing with sand was super helpful. The beach is a short walk down the private road and was exactly what I needed as my family has experienced grief recently. A peaceful soothing place. We adventured in the mornings and hung out under the big ceiling fans reading in the afternoon because it was so nice in the rooms with the windows open or on the terrace that it was wonderful just being there. They warned us about the water currents - please listen. It was great for staying in the shallow area to the north and hoping waves, or looking at the rocks. One of the neighbors helpfully described the part to watch out for and there was a sign. I have lived next to the ocean so I knew what they were talking about and it was hard to watch people go in the area with the drop off/current. Just ask. Still lots of beauty beach for me and my kiddo to play. I’m literally already trying to decide when to come back. It was our first trip to Costa Rica and I can’t believe no one I talked with (except a Costa Tican friend) told me about that area. The people who managed it were also exceptionally nice. I really did thank the house when I left. Also, those are howler monkeys. They were in the trees around the property. The most chill monkeys I’ve ever seen and had zero interest in mischief, just vegetarians doing their thing high up. Maybe they hang with sloths a lot? But you will know when it’s going to rain :) They actually warn you.

Hidden gem!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Everything was great and very well managed by the letting agents. It was a little tricky to find the first time so mentioning 'Bilbo' and the playa chiquita trail in the welcome comms would make it easier, or just share the Waze or google maps location. The house is very clean and well maintained and has lots of amenities. The welcome folder in the house needs to be updated (e.g. washing machine insructions) and should be placed on the kitchen bench; we only happened across it buried on the shelf under the tv.All in all a great stay and i wouldn't hesitate to recommend it. Thank you!

Great spot away from others

The property is described well in my opinion on VRBO. Very peaceful and secluded with private access to the beach. Main bed wasn't terrible in regards to comfort but i think the bigger bed in the extra room was more supportive. Pillows are quiet flat too, but we have slept on worse. The view outside the main bedroom with the windows open and the birds chirping and the ocean in the background is magical. Also the outdoor furniture was comfortable and great to lounge on while again enjoying the beautiful environment you are in. I noticed the management company in charge of the property was trying to get us to leave early so be mindful of your check out time and be ready to send someone on a motorcycle away 3 hours prior to your confirmed check out time. At least that was my experience, but Pura Vida. This place is highly recommended!!!

Disappointed

We had such high expectations for this property - but unfortunately it fell far from all of these. * From the listing, we had expected that it was a beachfront property. It is not. There is a path to get to the beach (which is great!), but the path is not well maintained and not even really known by the people who helped us check-in. * They say newer build... but the whole house is in different states of disrepair. Examples: All taps spew water all over the place, some where water is almost non-existant. Screens are in a bad condition - we had to use about a full roll of tape to "patch" enough for our stay. We even had to call someone to fix the screen in the kitchen as it was letting racoons in. * Not the cleanest place. We had to wash everything we used in the kitchen. Mold in different places. Storge closet smelled really bad. Poop of some sort on beds (new every day). Credit where credit is due - the overall location was good. Private parking and gated community. Close to shops that we needed and activities we were interested in. The beach nearby was nice. Overall, I would not recommend to a friend.

La casa es hermosa, muy cómoda, muy bien equipada, es privada y rodeada de naturaleza. Tiene restaurantes y tiendas cercanas. La comunicación y amabilidad del host fueron excelentes. Mi única observación es que la reservé pensando que tenía acceso a la playa y ya no es así, sugiero cambiar la descripción del inmueble para no causar confusión. La playa está cercana (distancia caminando o en auto), sin embargo para mí, que viajaba con un niño pequeño, hubiese sido más cómodo tener acceso a la playa desde la casa.

The only negative comment would be to include a warning about swimming on the beach, Everyone should be advised to avoid the rocks on the right. There is a crazy riptide that can pull you under the shelf of the rocks. Just stay to the left and your 100% safe.

Loved drinking coffee while watching birds, sloths, and butterflies. That was the first cup. The second was at the beach which was so close and quiet in the mornings. At night we loved drinking a cervesa and watching fire flies! It was great to have the kitchen to make our own breakfasts. We appreciated being away from the noise of the beach towns.

A+ Experience

A beautiful home of extremely interesting architectural details and craftsmanship stocked with top quality accessories, all of which worked! WiFi not the strongest, but likely above average by Costa Rican standards for non-metro areas. Located nearly adjacent to a lovely often private sandy beach free of rocks in the water, Playa Chiquita. The house and neighborhood are well planned to make your stay feel extremely secure. Even the animals running around feel secure and safe to come right up to the porches, including a sloth and baby who passed by on the ground, very slowly...a unique video opportunity. The management team is tops, and couldn't have been more professional. Thanks especially, Fabian. We were extremely pleased with everything we encountered with this vacation destination.
