– Our VACATION SPECIALISTS can assist with transportation, tours, boat trips, in-property services like chefs and spa services, as well as area information.
– One of our HOUSE MANAGERS will be your point of contact for any questions you have related to the property before and during your stay.
Our VACATION SPECIALISTS and HOUSE MANAGERS work as a team to provide you with the best vacation experience possible!
Los Almendros is a gated community on the beach in Playa Ocotal. There is a guard that lets guests in and out of the property. In addition to your private plunge pool, you can use the shared community pool with ocean views, loungers and covered table areas. There is plenty of shade along the beachfront and the ends of the beach have rocky reefs that offer good shore snorkeling options. There is a small mini market and two great restaurants – Father Rooster and Soluna Beach Bar at Bahia Pez Vela Resort
A 10-minute drive to the downtown of Playas del Coco gets you into the action. You can either rent a car or have your personal vacation planner arrange for an airport shuttle. Guanacaste Airport (LIR), near Liberia, is just a 40-minute drive from the home. Several supermarkets, fruit vendors, and more restaurants, bars, and shops can be found in neighboring Playas del Coco. Enjoy a walk along the beach boardwalk or stroll the beach from point to point for a 3km walk. You’re also close to several area day trip spots – waterfalls, hiking, hot springs, and mud baths, cultural experiences, and river tours. Enjoy the plethora of restaurants and activities in the area, then retire to the peace and tranquility of this beautiful vacation home.
This 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom villa (1,500 sq ft) sits just 115m from Playa Ocotal, where ocean views and gentle breezes set the tone for a peaceful getaway. After a day at the beach or exploring all Costa Rica has to offer, come back to your own private retreat to unwind in total comfort.

HOUSE RULES
Each Bedroom has a mini-split A/C unit. The unit should be set to COOL (use Mode button). Guests should not turn air conditioners below 23C / 74F. Setting the air conditioning units too low will lead to damage of the unit and possibly the property. When you leave the property, please turn off ALL air conditioners. Electricity in Costa Rica is VERY expensive. The mini-split air conditioners will cool down the rooms down very quickly upon your return. When you are not sleeping or using the bedroom(s) or a particular room, turn off the air conditioner(s). The main living space has central air. Guests also should not turn the air conditioners below 23C / 74F. DO NOT leave doors open while the air conditioners are running – this will cause moisture build-up and result in the units dripping and possibly freezing.
Garbage can be placed in the bins right near the parking area.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The common pool area is located just beside building A.
