8/10
The four star rating is based primarily on value for money. The house is very basic but it worked very well for us. It is described accurately in the listing, although you should be aware that the smallest bedroom is a walk-through, and access to the back deck requires walking through the bathroom or around the house from the front. We appreciated the amenities including reliable hot water (but not potable water), reliable wifi, washer and dryer. We very much enjoyed leisurely breakfasts on the back deck, where we could see toucans. Our other morning routines were usually a visit to the howler monkeys, who were staying in a tree 50 m down the road from the house, and watching the cows come down the path behind our porch, herded by a friendly farmer each morning. The beach is approx a 4min walk down the road to the national park gate (you will probably see brilliant blue morphos as well as the howlers on the road). A 5 min walk via the field in back takes you to a less populated beach, which is beautiful, and walking north for 10 to 15 min (at low tide) takes you to Arco beach, which is even more beautiful and deserted.
There were some issues with keys and the ceiling fans when we first arrived, but the owners were very responsive and fixed the problems.
