Flex House – Full Home with Pool and Guest House, Close to the Beach

Welcome to CasaFlex, a newly renovated paradise just a 5-minute walk to the beach! Have a peek of the ocean from the terrasse and look at the parrot while taking your coffee. You can also take a walk to the village for grocery shopping, go to the beach and take surf lessons.The main house features 3 bedrooms, while the annexed guest house offers a queen bed, bunk bed, full bathroom, and kitchenette. Perfect for two couples, this setup ensures comfort, privacy, and space for long stays.

The house is very safe and secure. There's a guard on duty every evenings and nights. The house is also equipped of security cameras, safes, alarm systems and digital locks.

Step into a spacious living room designed for relaxation, with plenty of natural light and cozy seating to unwind after a day at the beach. Enjoy meals in the charming dining area, or head outside to the beautiful pool where you can soak up the sun with a fresh drink in hand. At night, retreat to naturally lit rooms with comfortable beds that guarantee a restful sleep, making every moment at CasaFlex feel like home.

The charming beachside town of Esterillos Oeste is a short drive 20 minutes from Jaco and 40 minutes from Manuel Antonio. Although Jaco is only a short drive away, Esterillos Oeste remains quiet and peaceful with his 300 people. The town is surrounded mostly by patches of rice fields, grazing cattle, and thick tropical rainforest. Once you arrive in the modest town center near the beach, you will find a couple of small grocery stores, a few restaurants. Costa Ricans live in Esterillos Oeste, but there is also a sizeable population of ex-pats from USA and Canada including several living around the house.

Esterillos offers stunning views of the Pacific, and access to some of the best surfing and paddling in Costa Rica. This area is renowned for its abundance of fish, including black and blue marlin, sailfish and dorados, making it the perfect spot to cast a line and land a live one with sportsfishing expeditions. Visitors who want to remain on dry land can head out into the lush rolling hills that surround Esterillos Oeste on an ATV, or indulge in a leisurely trek through the countryside on horseback.

Our family enjoyed every minute of being at Casa Flex. It is perfect for a larger group and the pool did not disappoint! Clean, safe, great property, and a view of the ocean from the upper deck/tiki lounge. Enjoyed my coffee every morning. Location was convenient and located only a few minutes from the beach (albeit some trekking up and down a hill). The beach was quiet and the town is not touristy - great surfing spot! For those looking to see monkey's, if you go down the street and up the hill to the red gate at 4-5pm, they will be there and give you a show. Julien was an excellent host with great communication. Will definitely visit Casa Flex again in the coming years.

We enjoyed our stay at Casa Flex especially the pool and were surprised to see monkeys in the trees and macaws flying overhead! The A/C’s worked great and the main house suited our needs.Unfortunately, we couldn’t use the apartment because of water intrusion but the owners worked with us on a solution. It was our first family vacation in Costa Rica and we plan to come back! Communication with the property manager and owner was easy and efficient. The town is lovely and the beach was pleasant with tide pools to swim and snorkel.

The house is beautiful and we loved the pool, the porch was great for lounging. The host communicated with us and responded quickly to our concerns. We had issues with the plumbing, toilet clogging, shower spray clogged, and no hot water in the garage apartment, the kitchen light was broken. Recommend renting a car with four wheel drive to get to the house as there really isn't much in the area. Because of this we cooked at the house a lot and due to a lack of ventilation in the kitchen it was super hot while cooking. The water at the beach is very rough, not swimmable for us.

Great stay! Air is in all bedrooms - would be nice to have another unit in main area. Walking distance from beach, which is beautiful. Also walking distance from a couple local sodas and a market. Pools is great too! And there is a terrace above the guest house that gives a nice view of the ocean. Would stay again!

Paradise

We loved everything about CasaFlex. The location and short walk to the beach were just as described, and the local residents were incredibly friendly and helpful. The owners/management were quick to respond to any questions or assistance needed while there as well. I would recommend this property to anyone looking for a well maintained private little slice of paradise.

Walking distance to the beach

This house has very good value for what you pay for. The property has solid walls and gates, which is great for feeling secure, although the town does not feel un-safe at any point. The beach is a short walk, as is the grocery store and several restaurants. I stayed with my wife and our 2 kids, and the house is a perfect size for the 4 of us. There are plenty of beds to sleep more, but I suspect a large group would find the common space a bit crowded. Overall this is a great spot to vacation. I highly recommend it.

Wonderful Property

This is a beautiful property! We really enjoyed our time here. The grounds are beautiful and it is very quiet and peaceful. We spent a great deal of time on the open rooftop of the guest house; relaxing area with views of the ocean and sunsets. Our two teenagers used the guest house and thought that was pretty great (had I checked out the guest house and it’s bathroom before the last day, I would have claimed it ). The pool was clean and the poolside shower was a plus! The house is quite spacious, so we could have time by ourselves as needed. We were without most of the power for over 12 hours one night/morning so that got a bit hot without the AC/fans, but this seemed to be an issue with the power company as a truck came and rectified the issue minutes before the property manager and technician got to the house (and thankfully the kitchen continued to have power for some reason so we didn’t lose any of our food). Besides the power issue which was not the owner’s fault, our stay here was wonderful! We would definitely stay here again if we visit CR again; the property is a bit far (hour) from the activities we wanted to do, but, in our opinion, the tranquility of the property is worth the extra drive time. Thank you for letting us use your property; we had a great time!!A word of caution about driving from the property to La Fortuna- it was a terrifying journey (very narrow sometimes unpaved mountainous roads with no shoulder and huge drop offs)

Great House

The house is great and well equipped. We stayed for a month and all we could need was there. Foldable chairs on the property for the beach as well as pool floaties. The location is up quite a large hill from the beach and has stairs to the pool so not appropriate for someone with a mobility issue. There is a grocery store and restaurants within walking distance.Owner and property manager are great and respond immediately.

Nice stay with family

My wife, our 3 adult children and I stayed for a week during the Christmas holidays. The property was very comfortable and exactly as described on VRBO. The house sits in a quiet and quaint village. As described on VRBO, the beach is just a short walk away from the house. Although it is certainly not the prettiest beach in the world, it is wide, clean and wasn't very crowed (even on the weekend). There are some nice restaurants/bars that are just a short walk from the house including Restaurante El Patio and Restaurante Los Almendros. We also enjoyed some lunches in nearby towns. Really enjoyed lunch at Soda Gorabito in Jaco (inexpensive local flair) and La Junta in Domigal.The property manager, Keylor, met us when we arrived and showed us around the property. He also checked in (via text) couple of times during our stay and organised a few activities for us including the ATV rides, coffee experience, guided nature walk at Manuel Antonio National Park and massages for my wife and daughters. All of the activities were great, but my favorite was the coffee experience. It was hosted by a friendly couple (Alex and Hana) from the village, who provided a very interactive coffee tasting (coffee/snacks/culture & history). Alex and Hana also host guaro tastings, which we weren't able to experience. However, they also provide surf lessons which both my daughters took and had a great time. Overall, wonderful vacation. Thank you Julien and Keylor & team.

Great little spot in costa Rica

Easy to access house. We only stayed in the main part of the house and it was rainy season. So cooler and the AC in the bedrooms was very needed still. We had a slight issue with on demand water heater in main house shower but went over to the guest house to shower the kids. Pool was perfect. There is a packn play and high chair for the younger kids. We rented surf boards from Brett’s Surfboards down the road.
