Amazing Property and location

The house was huge and the property was right on the beach! Mauricio was very helpful for anything we needed. There was also dogs and a cat on the property (outside) which we loved too. The property was well secured and the house also has an alarm system but didn’t have to worry about it at all. Overall was an amazing experience and can’t wait to come back!

Mixed

I have mixed feelings about this place. The beach is nice and shallow with rolling waves for swimming in. House is fairly nice but needs much maintenance, repairs and updates. It was a spacious house and worked well for the 3 couples on our trip. The water in the house is very unpredictable-sometimes no hot water, sometimes just a scant trickle and sometimes no water at all! The "gardeners" are on site most everyday but seem to do little other than throw out an occasional spinkler and sit around the yard all day, its very strange. The surrounding neighborhood is very poor and dirty with razor wire everywhere. I did not really feel unsafe or witness any crime but must be sketchy with every location surrounded by razor wire. Had to buy our own washclothes and hand towels for bath and kitchen as there were none. Very few bath towels. There is a busy road behind the house with trucks using Jake-brakes all night long and loud motocycles. Main level is not air conditioned but bedrooms have air and were nice and cool. Construction was going on next door as well. The "go-to-guy" Mauricio, was very attentitive if we needed anything and a good resource for restaraunts and activities in the area. Enjoyed our stay and it was reasonably priced, but not likely i would rent this house again.

Amazing Trip!

We love coming to Costa Rica and this was probably the best visit. The house was absolutely perfect! It was close to so many attractions and the surf was spot on for what we wanted. Probably the best part of the house was the property manager, Mauricio. I have rented many homes over the years and he was by far the best property manager of any. He was always available if needed and went out of his way to make us feel welcome. We have definitely made a lifelong friend. When we return to Costa Rica, we will most likely rent this house again because of him. Boca Barranca is a great area and the property was perfect for the six of us. I would highly recommend this to anyone wanting to travel to Costa Rica! Pura Vida Todd

Better than advertised. The property manager was extremely helpful during our time. The lefts were longer than you can imagine. Will recommend to friends/family.

About the host

Hosted by Jim Habig

This property was purchase by 3 surfers that wanted to enjoy the amazing waves right in front. They held the Rabbit Kekai Surfing Competitions here along with the World Longboard Championships. They have enjoyed the villa for great surf trips and celebrated birthday parties and anniversaries and so much more.

Why they chose this property

This expansive 6.4 acre property sits on an incredible left hand point that can offer a surfer rides almost a full kilometer. You can be first in the water or catch it whenever the waves are good. You can see the surf from 3 of the bedrooms which connect to the expansive deck.

What makes this property unique

Just steps to one of the longest lefts in the world is the primary attraction but the grounds lend itself to large family gatherings, parties and celebrations. Across the river is a national park with wild monkeys that will come down and eat out of your hand.
