200m to Beach 4BR 3.5BA Villa private pool parking

Stayed here over Christmas 2025. Great house with a lot of room to spread out. Enjoyed the howler monkeys while hanging by the pool. Close to the beach and town.

We stayed for two weeks and it was amazing. The house was spacious and had a washer dryer which was a plus. Shopping was close. Alberto was very attentive and answered any concerns and booked our tours for us. The pool was amazing and we spent many hours in it. It would be advisable to rent a golf cart which made it easier to get around and pick up groceries. Eric was a great driver and knew lots about the area.Take the sunset catamaran tour. We saw dolphins, whales and had fresh fish on the cruise. The howler monkeys came right next to the house in the trees a couple of nights. I would recommend staying at this property.

Very impressive house with great views of wooded area surrounding the property. It’s private, on the end of the street. Easy walk to portrero beach. The property manager was very prompt and helpful with anything we needed. Highly recommend this place!!

You'll love your stay at Casa Howler! It's a quiet area that is a very short walk to the beach. In the morning, you can see monkey's in the trees and the property manager is world class. Alberto and his team are extremely helpful. There are quite a few great restaurants nearby and the house has a great layout for spending quality time with family and friends. 5 stars!

After booking the house, I immediately called the property management salty mangrove and spoke with one of the owners, Alberto Quevedo, to verify safety in the area and the house. He assured me that the area, neighborhood was safe, and the house had security cameras on 24/7. Unfortunately, as soon as we arrived at the house it was not true and called him immediately, he told me not to worry and repeated the same story. I told him that I was going out for dinner and after we could do the proper check-in and meet in person. We left and got back to the house around 2 hours later and it had been broken into and all our valuables gone. A side door leading to the laundry room had been kicked in and destroyed. We texted Alberto Quevedo that we were robbed he told us to not call the police and that everything was going to be ok and that he would come by as soon as possible. He arrived over 2 hours later and said there was nothing he could do about it at that moment and that he would handle the situation for us the next morning. When we asked about the cameras, he told us that the router had been stolen as well; so, there was no footage of anyone breaking in or our things being stolen. I have friends and family in Costa Rica, luckily, they called the police who showed up at 10pm to take our statements and fill out a police report. The manager went to speak with the neighbors as they also had cameras and he came back to tell us that their cameras weren’t working either. Be alert!
