Best location! Sleeps 16, plus walk to the beach and everything in Playa Grande

If you are looking to be close to the beach and everything Playa Grande has to offer, look no further. Casa Surf is exactly what you are looking for and more!

Casa Surf is a private, gated home with two casitas, located just steps away from the main surf break of Playa Grande. The home and casitas will sleep up to sixteen adults and boasts one of the best possible locations in town. From this home you can walk to many all the restaurants, nightlife, and of course the beach. Casa Surf is about one-hour from the Liberia international airport and whether you have a rental car on not, everything Playa Grande has to offer is just outside the main gate.

Recently remodeled, Casa Surf consists of a 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom main home with plenty of space and all the modern conveniences one would expect. The main home sits in the middle of Casita One and Casita Two. The main house offers a fully appointed gourmet kitchen, eight-person custom dining table, and a spacious living room perfect for game or movie nights. The living room opens to the outdoor kitchen (complete with gas BBQ and mini fridge), locally sourced hardwood dining table, and pool area complete with hammocks for recovering after an epic surf session or just relaxing after one of the many Adventure Tours our concierge arranged for you.

The primary bedroom is complete with a king bed, workstation, and newly remodeled en-suite bath with huge walk-in shower for two. After a long day of fun, you will sleep like a baby in the luxurious king-sized bed, feeling refreshed for each new day. Need to get a bit of work done in paradise? The master bedroom workstation allows you to work in private, away from the group. The two guest rooms each have bunkbeds that are queen over queen. These two bedrooms share a bathroom between them that also serves as the guest bath for the everyday living area.

Casa Surf also includes two detached Casitas. Casita One consists of a king bed, a queen over queen bunk bed, kitchenette, workspace, and bathroom with walk-in shower. The location of Casita One sits at the front of the property next to the pool, outdoor entertainment area and sleeps up to six in beds. Casita Two sits at the rear of the property and offers a bit more privacy. Casita Two guests enjoy a queen bed, single sofa bed, bathroom with walk-in shower, kitchenette, dining area, sofa area and TV. Next to Casita Two is the elevated rancho guests often use for Yoga area or sitting to area while enjoying wildlife looking through the neighboring treetops.

Playa Grande is known for its amazing plants and animals, so during your stay expect to see a variety of wildlife, including parrots, Howler monkeys, and iguanas. The local town of Playa Grande is welcoming and fun, with all the amenities you could need. To experience the authentic Pura Vida lifestyle, head down to the beach at sunset with a cocktail or a surfboard. For something, a little faster paced check out Tamarindo, a bustling tourist town with shopping, nightlife and over one hundred restaurants only 20 minutes to the south. Not your thing? Then just 20 minutes north you can head over to the new Flamingo Marina, a picturesque town with restaurants, shopping, marina, and amazing sunsets. There are so many beaches to explore, and our concierge is here to help at no additional cost.

All guests staying with Grande Vacation Rentals at Casa Surf receive complimentary concierge service to help plan their stay with us. Take advantage of our local knowledge and experience to make your trip as seamless as possible. We are happy to assist with rental cars, airport transfers, tours/excursions throughout the country, private chef services, in-home spa treatments and anything else you may want or need. Just ask us and we’ll do our best to accommodate your request.

We look forward to having you as our guest!

Gem of a place

We arrived as a family of adults with partners and children and had a lovely time in this space. The living and outdoor spaces were comfortable and elegantly casual, well appointed kitchen and outdoor kitchen with bbq was a highlight. With all the double bunkers there was lots of sleeping space. For an adult couple in a room, however, a bunk bed is not as nice as a regular bed. It would be wonderful if the top bunks could be taken down when they’re not needed.

Highly recommend this vacation rental! We had such a great time in Casa Surf! Keith and his team at GVR had everything ready for us & were able to set up all of our excursions and even arrange the transportation. Playa Grande is such a cool little beach town. You are literally a 20 second walk from the most beautiful beach I have ever seen, The beach was great for surfing, long morning strolls and the sunsets are breathtaking. The entire town pretty much gathers at the beach every evening to watch the sun go down with a beer or cocktail in hand. My favorite part of this vacation was that I didn't need a car. The house is next to the town's small beach club which has sushi, burgers, salads, a bar and a small store. Just down the street is the RipJack Inn which was our favorite restaurant in town and had the best happy hour ever! The house itself is perfect vacation house…you walk into the sound of the cascading waterfall feature in the pool. The main house has a huge great room so everyone can comfortably hang out together and there is a very well equipped kitchen. The master has it's own private bathroom with a huge shower and there are 2 other bedrooms that share a second bathroom. There are also 2 separate smaller units which are like "in-law" suites. Both have their own kitchen, bathroom and plenty of room to sleep a family of four. This is the perfect set up for families or groups and creates spaces that are more private and allow for some quiet time.
