You can't go wrong for the price on this one.
If you want space, and being literally on the beach, you should not hesitate to stay at this property. If you are a perfectionist, you still may want to stay here because the cost is excellent for a place on the beach. The high tide literally came within a couple of feet of the property wall. The grounds and home were very relaxing. Patris did respond very well to all of our questions and gave good advice and directions to accomplish what we desired. If I did not desire a variety in locations, I would absolutely stay here again and may very well do so in the future anyway. Thank you Patri

good times at Tarcoles
Patri is a good host, she cares. This place is the real deal if you are looking for an authentic CR experience. It's an older property but it's being maintained and clean. spectacular sunsets. good swimming and beach walking right in front of you. also beach bars/restaurants all in easy walking distance. only negative for us was the highway noise, it's a busy highway with a lot of truck noise.but it didn't diminish the experience really. A cat lives on the property but he's no bother and you'll get visits from chickens and dogs but all freindly.

Beautiful. peaceful place for a great vacation
Casa Amarillo is a small beach cottage with a beautiful garden and direct ocean views from the home, the patio garden and the small plunge pool. We loved falling asleep every night and waking every morning to the sounds of the surf. Scarlet macaws visited the property's almond trees everyday. Jarra, the caretaker cut open coconuts for us. And we were able to buy fresh caught fish directly from fishermen. The inside furnishings and fixtures are pretty basic, but it's functional, comfortable and has everything you really need. Patri the property manager is quick to respond to any problems. The location, while beautiful, is not convenient to shopping or restaurants. There are two restaurants within walking distance on the beach. La Fiesta Del Marisco was especially good. Beyond those two, you will need a car or a driver. I highly recommend a driver Patri put me in touch with, Gilberth Montero, who not only provided us with transportation but also helped us plan and book tours and activities that really made our vacation special. I would love to stay here again and would recommend Casa Amarilla to anyone visiting this area of Costa Rica.

CR Vacay
Casa Amarilla is a beautiful house on the beach. Difficult to find - don't miss that small drive down to all the houses. There are about 6 or 7 next to each other on the beach. Most are empty so it is quiet and relaxing...until the weekenders arrive with their loud music and large families. The host, Patricia, is wonderful and anticipates all you need for a vacay at the beach. Sunsets are gorgeous, the pool cool and refreshing, even a "resident" cat who just wants to be loved. A/C in the bedrooms is refreshing after a long day in the sun. The kitchen is well equipped, lots of towels for the house and the lounge chairs. Jarra comes by every other day or so to clean the pool, check on guests, help you practice your spanish. Lots of dogs in the neighborhood.

Beautiful location
Was as advertised and pictures are accurate but don’t do it justice. Absolutely loved this stay. The property manager Patricia was prompt to answer any questions, helped us with tours and was a super friendly person. The yard person Jarra was outstanding with his knowledge of area, history, flora and fauna…and kept the pool pristine! There were daily visits from chickens, birds and friendly dogs. The view was amazing and the yard and garden beautiful and private. Would highly recommend.

Lovely home on the water
This home, right on the water, is beautifully and unpretentiously designed for a comfortable, aesthetic, sensuous experience. The garden has several outdoor garden spaces for socializing while looking at the ocean and seated midst well maintained tropical flowers and trees. The sun shifts and the shade in different garden spots is welcome because temperatures in early March are hot! The small plunge pool is a delight for cooling down, also while watching sunset and moonrise over the sea. The Pacific itself, right in front of the house, is warm and gentle. The beach is rocky but the rocks are gorgeous with interesting markings. They thin out and the beach is sandy as you come to ocean itself; also you can walk in either direction along the beach, to Tarcoles to the right and to a sandier beach on the left. Two national parks and Jaco are short drives. The kitchen is well equipped, the beds in the three bedrooms are comfortable. Patricia, the house manager, is wonderful. I had an accident while there and she went to extraordinary lengths to get me the medical care I needed. We also enjoyed Jarre who works in the garden and with the pool, a lovely man who showed us how to harvest cocoa beans from his plants and brew cocoa from them. This house has the best possible review from us and we're planning a family reunion there.

the real Costa Rica
A little tricky to find the turnoff but young, sharp eyes saw it. Jarra, the groundskeeper met us on the road and guided us to the house. The house is comfortable. Well equipped kitchen with some cooking essentials on hand (salt, oil). Beds comfortable if you like them hardish. Location is exceptional. Fishermen on the beach daily, unloading huge fish almost nightly. Jarra acquired some which he shared with us (vela). Close to the Croc Bridge and Carara Pk. Jarra was around daily and the family enjoyed his lessons in Spanish, how to open and drink a coconut, etc. etc. Very happy, generous man to add to our experience. The trucks engine braking all day and even night were loud and a little much but the 6 of us all decided the beauty of the rest of it outweighed the noise. Manager stopped by for a nice visit and more lessons.

¡Pura Vida! ♥️
Nous arrivons d’un séjour de 10 jours. Casa Amarilla est une maison costaricaine, 3 chambres et 2 salle de bain. C’était amplement pour notre groupe de 5 personnes (4 adultes et 1 adolescent de 14 ans). Il y a eu de petits désagréments mais ça ne m’a pas empêché de passer de belles vacances. POINTS FORTS: Patri est une EXCELLENTE manager. C’est une femme extraordinaire qui a le soucis du bien-être des vacanciers. Nous communiquons avec elle par Messenger puisque nous avions le wifi à la maison (qui fonctionnait peut-être même trop bien pour mon ado 😂). Patri est TRÈS proactive. Nous avons eu des difficultés avec l’air climatisé et le robinet de cuisine et dès qu’elle a été mise au courant, elle venait dès le lendemain avec un réparateur (même le dimanche de Noël!!!) pour venir voir le problème. Pour ce qui est de son service, Patri vaut un 10 étoiles ⭐️!! Si je pouvais l’amener comme manager partout où je vais en vacances, je le ferais!! Elle nous a donner des bons conseils. Ensuite, la vue. LA VUE 🤩🤩!! C’est vraiment beau. Le couché du soleil au son des vagues en étant assis dans la cour…c’était magnifique. Les aras rouges viennent déjeuner le matin dans les amandiers. Ça ajoute un côté extraordinaire de les voir arriver. Ils sont curieux, ils nous regardent en cueillant leurs amandes, un matin ils sont descendus quand même assez bas…on a pu prendre de très belles photos. Le peuple est très gentil, poli, respectueux envers nous. Facile d’avoir accès à un taxi. Patri peut nous organisés des transports. Ensuite les chauffeurs nous laisse une carte d’affaire alors on peut communiquer directement avec eux par Whatsapp. ILS SONT TRÈS PONCTUELS!! Soyez prêts 2-3 minutes avant l’heure parce qu’ils sont là! Jaco est à 20 minutes de voiture. POINTS FAIBLES: -La plage a BEAUCOUP de roches. Ça prend absolument des souliers d’eau pour marcher. -C’est vrai que la maison est à quelques mètres de la route principale. Alors on entend beaucoup les camions. Comme c’est dans les montagnes et les courbes, ils mettent leurs freins moteurs. Très bruyant. -La maison est dans une parcelle de terre entre la mer et la route et dans un genre de cul-de-sac. On ne peut pas marcher dans le quartier. Pour aller à Tarcoles même, on peut prendre par la plage et couper par la rivière (c’est une très bonne marche) ou prendre le taxi pour nous amener faire les commissions. En résumé, j’ai eu des belles vacances. Le Costa Rica est à découvrir!

The perfect place to unplug and relax. Three bedrooms suitable for a larger group or just for two. Excellent restaurants nearby or you can travel south to to Playa Herradura of Jaco for entertainment and shopping. Definitely eat at LA Ostra, the food and drinks are the best!!
