This was the first time my husband and I have been to Costa Rica. Our goals for this trip were to relax, patronize the local restaurants and to experience local culture with no detailed itinerary. We had a few excursions in mind and decided Playa Potrero made the most sense for proximity of our activities along with lodging beachside. This condo looked ideal in pictures but exceeded our expectations once we arrived. The space was clean, comfortable (thankful for A/C) and stocked with everything we needed. The host was quick to respond and checked in often to make sure we were comfortable. A few of our favorite restaurants within a short walk were Nita’s Coffee, The Shack, La Forketta, The Beachhouse and Nasu. Our excursions of La Leona Waterfall, sloth tour, River Celeste and a cacao and coffee tour were less than 2 hours away. Our host provided a great transportation guide who also had a few local recommendations for a market, homemade empanadas and breweries. We visited Playa Flamingo for another beach day. The condo village was well maintained, clean, quiet and secure. We would definitely stay again.
