Amazing location!

I never wanted to leave! With the beautiful yard, the beach, the tide pools and Cheyo and his wonderful dogs, Sand Dollar Cove was heavenly! We wanted to stay somewhere away from the crowds where we could relax and enjoy the outdoors, and we did! The birds and howler monkeys were plentiful. Elizabeth and Jim were excellent hosts and quick to answer my questions. I’m already scheming to go back. Thank you so much, Elizabeth and Jim, for sharing your magical place.

I almost hate to tell how perfect it is

This is our third time coming to Sand Dollar Cove. It may be my favorite place on earth. Playa San Miguel is a beautiful beach that goes on forever. The people are friendly the seafood is amazing and the house is perfect! I almost hate to review so it gets popular. The house is airconditioned in the bedrooms and right on your own private part of the beach in a cove with an estuary. The back patio is perfect to sit see and hear the ocean and be cooled by ocean breezes. The wifi is really good. the beds are comfy and the kitchen has everything you need to cook. Cheyo the caretaker can get you fresh fish. We watched the Super Bowl at Hotel Laguna Mar with a bunch of Americans, the seafood soup and ribs there were great! We went to the jungle butterfly farm, I recommend going there early in your trip because Mike's bug spray is the best! Elizabeth thank you for sharing your little piece of heaven with us! It is truly a remarkable place.

Once in a lifetime retreat

OMG, this place was fabulous! Always wanted to stay in a beachfront villa on the ocean and it didn't disappoint. The villa description is accurate. You can fall asleep to the ocean waves, walk on the beach for miles with only a few people and the seabirds to keep you company. The gardens are taken care of by Cheyo who also makes the most incredible ceviche. There are avocado, orange, lime, and mango trees on the property. The bedrooms are large with air conditioning and the bathrooms have several soft towels as well as beach towels for you to use. The kitchen is fully stocked with any items you may need for cooking, but there are several incredible restaurants within close driving distance. Highly recommend making reservations at San Miguel Restaurante, probably one of the best places I have ever eaten. Elizabeth was very responsive and a wonderful host. Her directions to the villa were spot on but as she recommended a 4x4 is necessary. Costa Rica secondary roads are an experience not to be missed but addressed with a sense of humor as you bump along on the gravel roads.You will never experience a beach front delight like this anywhere. The Pacific ocean with an almost deserted beach makes this a treasure. Thank you Elizabeth for sharing your home with us.

Wonderful Vacation!!!

This vacation home is perfect for the one who wants a Costa Rican experience, not a canned resort experience. Cheyo, the caretaker is a delight to talk to and maintains the home and grounds as if it were his own. Elizabeth the host is easy to work with. The home is beautiful and you couldn't ask for a more perfect private beach. The waves were perfect for boogie boarding. The only thing that concerned us was the drive to the property, however after making it there we realized it wasn't as long as it seemed, however, very very rough dirt roads. So just be aware, but don't let that stop you. The bedrooms are spacious and everything is very comfortable. Thank you Elizabeth, Jim and Cheyo!

Can't wait to go back

If I could drop my life and move there tomorrow, I would do it. The trip was not without issues. The location is rather remote and there was rain and flooding throughout the country. Plenty went wrong, but so much of it was out of everyone's control and through it all the host and the caretaker were attentive and communicative. This property is a little slice of heaven if you want to get off the beaten path. If it hadn't been booked up I might still be there.

Remote Paradise

It was all we hoped it was going to be and more! Great private house on a secluded beach with mostly crabs for company. Optionally, you can also enjoy the caretaker's two dogs and a kitten - if you pay them attention (we did), they will return it in droves! Expect mostly outdoor living, so bring bug spray, books and not much else. House is well equipped with all you need, including beach towels, chairs, toys, etc. Rent a high clearance 4X4 car as the roads are not paved, have giant craters, and they forgot to put bridges over several rivers. Bring food - the nearest "store" is 15 mins away and you will not want to drive there if it's dark and/or raining. Go to Restaurant San Miguel at least once - it's some of the best food we ever had, and we're foodies from London & NYC. Plus, they will change your tire if (when!) you get a flat.

Paradise. Home Away from Home.

Paradise. I love it here! If you are looking for an isolated experience that feels like home with breathtaking ocean views and non-stop bird watching...this is it. Leave your white noise machine at home, climb into one of the hammocks and let the waves sing you to sleep. The beds are comfortable, I loved lounging on the porch and being steps away from the ocean all made me very happy. Sand Dollar Cove feels like home away from home. I can't wait to visit again.

This is our second time here and we are looking to book next year. The house and location are perfect if you want to experience Costa Rica without a bunch of tourists. Cheyo and Soleil are lovely and Elizabeth responds quickly to any issues. This location is so special. The beach is beautiful the house is beautiful. There are several restraints if you want to eat out that you can walk the beach to or a short drive. We like to cook and Cheyo can get you fresh fish right out of the ocean to make cerviche or grill. There are stores 15 min drive away for anything you need. Just heaven! Thanks you Elizabeth for another lovely stay!!!

The stay here was great, lots of beach walks with the house also very well stocked, wished we had a pack and play for our grandson but made it work. The AC in each room gave you great sleeping temps. All the beach toys, chairs, umbrellas and boogie boards were a great option. Spent most of our time on the beach at the tidal pools, in the water or on the nice shaded deck overlooking the water. Easy to walk to a nice to a place to grab a snack and beverage, Loco Cocos and the Pizza Tree was a fun experience as well. If you are looking for quiet and solitude this is the place.

Enjoyable Stay

When I review a location it’s the whole experience. So let’s begin: The drive in is an adventure, to say the least. There were three river crossings along with uphills, downhills twists and turns. Personally I loved it, made it more fun. Upon arrival the property struck me as dated, requiring some TLC. It was as described, but older than I thought to be honest. That was my impression after a 5 hour drive. Then you realize where you are and you forget all the imperfections, your front yard is the ocean, your backyard the jungle. The beach is beautiful with miles and miles of sand and surf. Huge jungle hills surrounding you with all the beauty and nature Costa Rica has to offer. Monkeys, parrots, macaws we saw them all. Sunsets (daily) that you only see in movies or on TV. It’s quiet, it’s secluded and it feels like it’s all for you. I describe it like this - if you ever wanted to live in a postcard, this is that place. We ran into a couple issues, Elizabeth resolved them immediately, without question, and we appreciated that. Cheyo the caretaker and his wife cooked us meals daily, and they were awesome. Delivered to our door with fresh juices, catch of the day red snapper grilled to perfection, a real taste of local foods, we loved the service and recommend it when you stay. There are restaurants within 10 mins that were every bit as good if you wanted to get out. We loved it and would go back anytime.

The descripition "Beach Front Paradise" is accurate. Very private and beautiful but it is sure "off the beaten path". It was a mistake on our part in driving there from the airport in the dark. The first part of the drive on Rt 150 was a decent roadway but the trip from Samara along Rt 160 was a nightmare. This road is so rough I felt like milkshake. There are so many twists and turns that I just kept praying. When talking to the locals, they all said they do not travel that road at night. Waking up the next morning made the trip all worth while. The house and the beach are wonderfull and we met Rufino, the caretakers "brother" who was a great guide to the area. We went fishing with the Samara Deep Sea charter and had a GREAT day on the water. We caught so much grouper and mahi that we had enough for lunch and dinner all week. We had dinner one night (for my Birthday) at Restaurant San Miguel and were extremely pleased with everything.

Paradise

We had the most amazing stay here. This really is a piece of paradise. The beach was glorious with the jungle as a backdrop. You can walk along the beach for miles. The waves are perfect for body boarding,- there are some at the property which is great, surfing (you can hire some locally) or just swimming. We hardly saw anybody. We had 2 full days of very heavy rain but the porch is a great place to sit and relax. There is over an hour of dirt road to get to the property but that only increases it’s charm. We did have to drive through 3 rivulets so I would definitely recommend a 4x4. We went on a boat trip further up the coast and saw whales, dolphins and turtles- absolutely incredible! Cheyo and his wife are lovely, very friendly and very willing to impart knowledge and show you things. They don’t speak English but Google translate works well. Views from the main 2 bedrooms are magnificent! The air conditioning in the rooms works very well and really helps. The outside shower is great after swimming in the sea. I would definitely recommend filling up with petrol and doing a grocery shop before arriving. We have 3 children- 18, 15 and 11 and they all loved it here. If you like peace and tranquility and a bit of paradise with a pristine beach virtually to yourself this is the place for you!

An absolute gem

We spent 5 days at Sand Dollar Cove with three generations of family and had an absolutely perfect trip. The beach is truly spectacular - beautiful, clean, with warm gentle water, and almost no one else in sight. Inside the house is clean and comfortable, and the air conditioning in the bedrooms was a nice reprieve from the hot weather, but the breeze off the ocean made even outdoors pleasant even in high temperatures. The caretaker, Cheyo, was very friendly and responsive the few times we needed help with something. We really couldn't have asked for a better trip. It's off the beaten path but 100% worth it.

Remarkable place!

Our family of five LOVED staying at sand dollar cove. It was well worth the journey to get there, as it is off the beaten path. Cheyo’s hospitality as caretaker of the property was one of our highlights of our whole trip! If you come we highly recommend you hire him to cook for you during your stay. We asked him to make his ceviche for us, and it was wonderful - made with fish he caught that morning, and he prepared fried fish and chips for the kids. His Carne Asada was amazing too! It’s hard to overstate the beauty of the house’s location. Lush foliage is everywhere! Warm water meant long swim sessions for us and our kids (12, 9 & 7) during low tide on the gorgeous, quiet beach. We loved exploring the nearby tide pools and relaxing outside. Highly encourage you to make the drive in daylight hours. Come with most of what you will need for your stay as the grocery stores are not real close. Communication with the owners and Cheyo the caretaker was great! If you love fresh coffee, either bring a grinder or have your coffee ground before you come - we didn’t think to ask about a grinder, and ended up using the blender to grind our coffee. The house itself is wonderful, though it seems like it is within a year or two of needing some capital improvements for it to continue to be a comfortable place to stay. We would LOVE to stay here again if we make it back to Costa Rica. We highly recommend it!

Memories!!!!!

Our time here was magical. You basically have your own beach to explore! You will see a few locals on the beach but rarely a tourist. The property is lush and beautiful with entertaining howler monkeys swinging through the trees. There’s nothing better than hearing the waves crash into the beach as you are laying on a chaise lounge enjoying a beverage. There are some amazingly good restaurants nearby that are locally owned with incredible food (Restaurant San Miguel up the street and Aromas about 15 min away and soooo good!). Also, going to the Butterfly Farm for a tour with Mike who is an Entomologist was definitely one of the highlights of our trip! Shorts, t-shirts, tennis shoes, bathing suits and flip flops are all you really need to pack…maybe a dressier shirt for dinner or a sundress. Make sure you rent a car that can handle the dirt roads and can go through wet creek beds on your way to the property. Also look out for dogs, iguanas and an occasional Brahma Bull on the road! You will create a ton of incredible memories if you stay here!

Secluded, Blissful Beachfront Retreat

My family and I recently had the pleasure to escape to this hidden gem on Playa San Miguel coast. I, too, now understand why others have not wanted to give a review - to keep this place a secret! The beach itself, just a few steps from the house provided a stunning backdrop for the ultimate beachside getaway. We visited in the off season, so it was not crowded. The most amount of people that we saw on the beach at once was 6! Elizabeth was wonderful, extremely attentive and responsive and provided detailed information for us. And, Cheyo, was the absolute best. Always there to help if we needed him. We did opt for he and his wife to cook for us one evening (we chose fish and shrimp) and it was absolutely incredible. One of the best meals of our Costa Rican trip. The house was absolutely perfect for our family. We brought along our two teens, so they each had their own room and shared a bathroom, and then my mom had a main suite with private bathroom upstairs, and we did, too. All bedrooms have air conditioning in them. The linens were all top of the line and extremely comfortable beds. We did rent an all AWD vehicle to get there (as I believe this is a necessity) and we stopped at one of the larger grocery stores before arriving. We ate at The Pizza Treehouse - great food. And also to at the El Barco restaurant which is quite new and beautiful with excellent food. Off season so other places were not open. Excellent vacation with memories to last a lifetime! Thank you!!

Gotta see to believe

We had such a marvelous time at SDC this past week. It was everything the listing said it would be plus so much more! We had 7 of us total, 2 families represented and this home felt like home from the moment we walked in. The view is literally a million dollar view and the space is well thought out for a beach front getaway. Our teens had a blast boogie boarding(boards provided) right out on our “private” beach. We had the honor to meet Eddy the local surf school instructor and rented some of his surf boards for the week. The beach itself was insane, with near by tide pools(10min walk up the beach) to lounge in, waves were perfect for surfing and swimming. We even surfed with the manta rays which was epic. Elizabeth and Cheyo were amazing to work with and attentive to all our needs. This experience was one of the highlights of my life and I will treasure it always! Thank you

The Perfect End

We started in San Jose, went to Monte Verde, and finally ended our vacation at this little gem. This is the perfect place to unwind and unplug. Cheyo doesn’t speak any English but that doesn’t stop him from having an animated conversation with you. He’s lovely. The drive there—at least the one we took—consists of pavement, then gravel, then potholes (typical Costa Rica), so I would definitely recommend a 4-wheel drive. The ocean water is the perfect temperature but we didn’t do much more than wading because of rip currents—not exclusive to this beach. We only saw a few people a day so it was truly like our own private piece of heaven. I would highly recommend this place.
