El Pasito

I had a really great stay here and would absolutely come back. The place was very clean, the bed was comfortable, and the shower had great hot water after long days out exploring. The kitchen was also well stocked with everything you might need if you want to cook, which I appreciated. Having parking on site was very convenient as well.The host was wonderful. Very friendly, accommodating, and helpful whenever I needed anything. They made the check-in and check-out process very smooth and easy, which I really appreciated.I also have to mention the two dogs who greeted me whenever I came and went. They were incredibly sweet and honestly became one of the highlights of the stay. The property felt very safe and secure the entire time.The location worked well for me. I ended up driving most places since the roads in the area are dirt and not the easiest to walk, but it is still very close to Potrero and several beautiful beaches, so getting around by car was quick and easy.The only thing worth noting for future guests is that the first unit (where I stayed) is right near the entrance, so it is not completely private. Cars coming in and out of the property can see the patio and pool area, so if you're someone looking for total privacy while relaxing outside, it's just something to be aware of.That said, it didn’t take away from my overall experience. The space was comfortable, welcoming, and a great base for exploring the area. I had a wonderful stay and would definitely

My wife and I just returned from an incredible two-week stay at El Pasito in Surfside, Costa Rica, and we can honestly say it was exceptional from start to finish.The location was absolutely perfect—close enough to everything we needed, yet tucked away enough to be peaceful, private and safe. For the cost, the accommodations exceeded our expectations. It was spotless, beautifully maintained, and designed for comfort. We truly felt at home the moment we arrived.One of our favorite features was the private cooling plunge pool—perfect after a warm Costa Rican walk. The outdoor kitchenette was adequately stocked for vacationers needs. We enjoyed breakfasts at El Pasito and dined out every evening. Having access to laundry was another thoughtful touch that made a two-week stay effortless.What truly sets El Pasito apart, though, is the onsite owner and caretaker. Their attention to detail and genuine focus on patron delight made the entire experience special. Every question was answered, every need anticipated.If you’re considering Surfside, for the cost, El Pasito is a gem. We can’t wait to return.

Loved the ambience of peace and quiet, had all the conveniences we needed and Carolina, the host, was cheerful, helpful and caring. We loved it so much, we wanted to live there! PuraVida.

Everything was amazing about this VRBO. The Hosts were very welcoming and helpful. Answered any and all questions I had. They went out of there way for me. This was an absolutely amazing experience for my first time in Costa Rica.

We really enjoyed everything about the El PASITO. It was relaxing, private, equipped with the essential needs. It was off the main roads but close to everything. Caroline was very laid back and accommodating. We also love the property animals. Walked with the dogs and visited by the cat. It was a truly relaxing week.
