About this property

4 BR/4 BA, Pool, Ocean View, Steps from the Beach, Reduced Rates

This incredible ocean view home is only about 100 feet from the Pacific Ocean. You can enjoy relaxing strolls on the sandy beach, swim in the family-friendly ocean bay, and return for a fresh water dip in the privacy of your own pool. In the evening enjoy the unforgettable Costa Rican sunsets from the 2nd floor furnished balcony, or the 3rd floor shaded belvedere.

If you want excitement, a huge selection of activities are readily available: scuba diving, snorkelling, leatherback turtle expeditions, sport fishing, canopy tours, sunset sails...to name just a few. Costa Rica is famous for its diverse wildlife population. Monkey sightings are common, occasionally even from the pool at Casa Cerca del Mar!

If you are more inclined to relax, Casa Cerca del Mar offers a cool and comfortable home away from home to enjoy the peace and serenity of a quiet beach in Costa Rica...Just sit and listen to the rhythm of the ocean waves!
you can enjoy to Potrero walking or renting a golf car to visit Potero ,Flamingo ...... and enjoying the sun and PURA VIDA

Absolutely fantastic!!
This place exceeded our expectations. The location is excellent with great restaurants very close but the best part was the beach. It's clean and quiet and so close that you can listen to the waves at night. The top "crows nest" area is wonderful for looking at the ocean and listening to the wildlife especially in the morning or at sunset. And the pool is kept immaculate by Benito the gardener who cleans it early in the morning. The beds in every room were so comfortable we didn't want to leave them. Well appointed kitchen great dinning area. We can't wait to come back. Christelle and Chan are awesome and will bend over backwards to make sure you have a perfect stay.

Incredible
This was our second trip to the area, and we absolutely loved everything about this house. Proximity to the beach and communication was stellar. We truly enjoy the pool every day as it is a shaded area. The house is absolute perfection, and we would come back in a heartbeat.

A great place to stay!
We took our first trip to Costa Rica for Christmas with 3 adult children and significant others. It was a great experience and this property was just right for us. Three first floor bedrooms with 3 bathrooms and a master bedroom upstairs was perfect for our group. Each room has its own AC unit. Marie the property manager was very friendly, helpful and responsive. We rented golf carts which were delivered the day we arrived and Marie arranged to meet them at the house for the drop off before we arrived. (If you want golf carts in Potrero, look up Chip and Jennifer Little. They’re awesome too). We had chef Gustavo come and cook Christmas breakfast for us which was fun and delicious. His contact info is in the guest materials. The beach is across the street. Not the most beautiful beach in the world, but nice to have nearby and an easy walk south to the Potrero restaurants. We took the kayaks out one day and had a great time. The pool area is very comfortable when you’re not out and about, and a landscaper came and tended to the pool and yard almost daily. I highly recommend this property. I would definitely stay there again. Marie is awesome!

Best Vacation Rental Ever!!!
I could rave all day about how amazing this property and host was. The beach was a super short walk away, and the hosts were so helpful and kind all the way from booking the property until the day I left. I would definitely visit again!

Amazing location and close to everything
I loved this property. It was very clean, very comfortable, air conditioning worked very well, lots of space, nice pool, very beautifully landscaped, right on a very nice and calm beach (perfect for kids), well stocked, very quiet neighborhood and secure (Electronic gate, alarm system, etc), and it was very close to everything, especially Flamingo and Las Catalinas. The owner was amazing, very friendly, very helpful, and very welcoming... i accidentally left my $250 portable Wi-Fi at a restaurant the night before we left, and didn’t realize it until i was half way back to the airport. The owner went and got it for me and is going to mail it to me. Exceptional property owner, and amazing property. Will definitely stay again!

My wife and me decided to buy this house because it was a crush . The location is spectacular we can enjoy to the beach and to the nature close to the house .It 's a beautiful choice .
Like we say here that it's the PURA VIDA

Why they chose this property

It was love at first sight! A unique 3-level home in a quiet exclusive neighborhood...Beautiful private garden... Monkeys visiting the mango tree next to our own pool... The sounds and sights of the ocean from our master bedroom...How much better could it be???

What makes this property unique

The big plus of this villa is location: mere steps from the beach, and close to restaurants, convenience stores, and bars. The beach skirts the protected warm safe and picturesque bay ideal for swimming- no hidden rocks, no riptides. Despite these ideal conditions, we've seldom seen more than a handful of people on the beach at any one time, lending the feel that the bay is all yours to enjoy!

We highly recommend a visit to Playa Penca, just North of Las Brisas. It's an exquisite little beach with white sands, great shade trees, and crystal clear water. Two miles in the opposite direction is the equally spectacular Playa Flamingo. Don't miss it!
