Casa Kristina at Pools & Sandy Beach

Located in beautiful Puntas, directly between two of Rincon's most iconic beaches, Pools Beach and Sandy Beach, Casa Kristina offers 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and 2 kitchens. The home is set up as two separate units (connected by stairs on the exterior only) offering privacy within the property for your large group (10 max). Casa Kristina has been fully renovated in 2022.

The first floor is a one bedroom suite with a barn style door to separate areas and convert to a 2 bedroom (both with separate access from the outdoor patio). There is a king size bed in the main area and 2 full size futons in the lounge room/2nd bedroom. The first floor full kitchen also has it's own access along with an additional living area.

The second floor is a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom suite with a full kitchen, spacious living area and large outdoor porch with a stunning ocean view. Primary bedroom-1 king size bed, Bedroom 2-2 full size beds, Bedroom 3-1 queen size bed

Great decor, intelligent layout and convenient location make Casa Kristina the perfect home away from home. Stay in and fix a home cooked meal in either of the two fully equipped kitchens or take advantage of the local bars/restaurants all within walking distance. Take your pick between two gorgeous beaches; Pools beach, great for snorkeling, surfing, and lounging, is just a 20 second walk to the South while Sandy Beach with excellent swimming, miles of explorable pristine sand, and beach-front bars is just a 20 second walk to the North. Take a dip in the private pool and fade away to the soothing waterfall sounds. Situated in a small, 'tucked away' neighborhood this home offers enough privacy with great local hot spots still within reach.

Our stay at Casa Kristina was absolutely phenomenal. The layout of this home is ideal for large families or groups. The location is unbeatable, as we were just steps away from the beach and could wake up to the sound of the ocean.We also thoroughly enjoyed the pool and the balcony, which offer stunning ocean views for morning coffee or sunset drinks.Additionally, Erica and Ryan from were incredibly responsive and ensured we had everything necessary for a five-star experience.

We had an absolutely beautiful stay at Casa Kristina! Erica and Ryan were excellent and easy to work with. Waking up every morning to the crashing ocean waves and warm breeze were just what our friends and family needed. The beds and furniture were comfy and plentiful. There’s a couple of cute restaurants and a coffee/smoothie shop right around the corner which we found awesome. The beaches, just steps away were perfect. The pool and balconies were used constantly. If you are looking to get away from it all and relax with your group, you will most certainly find that here. 100 stars!

Rincon at Casa Kristina

We had an amazing time at Casa Kristina. The view from the deck is stellar!!!!!! Most amazing sunsets. The house was amazing with a nice pool to take a dip in after the beach which is a 2 minute walk from Casa Kristina. The property managers were super attentive and made the process seamless!

Great Place

We had such a great time. The house and pool were perfect for the kids( and adults). There was plenty of area for everyone to have their own space if needed. We enjoyed eating and hanging out near the pool. The house was super close to a couple beaches and it was easy to get to town. We can’t wait to go back!

Casa Kristina

Thank you for providing an amazing home! The view and location is fantastic being just steps from the beaches including awesome sunsets. House was clean and the the AC units kept the house nice and cool. The area itself is quite unique in a great way…walking distance to gift shops, restaurants and bars, or a short drive down into the city for more options. Highly recommend Casa Kristina!

Amazing Location

The outdoor space at this house is amazing. Spent a ton of time at the pool and sitting on the veranda on the second floor watching the waves. Loved having the beach, coffee shop, bagel shop and several restaurants within steps. The hosts are very responsive and helpful with suggestions during the stay. Would 100% return to this house.

This home was perfect

This home was perfect. This was our 3rd trip to Rincon, so we were familiar with the area, however you never know until you get there how accurate the listing is. It was exactly as described. You can not beat the location for the price - easy walk to 2 beaches with an ocean view right out front. Also, easy to walk to several restaurants and shops. We will be back.

Perfect location next to the beach with sweeping views of the ocean. Very well appointed property lacking nothing. The pool was wonderful with associated large area to entertain our family and cookout. Ryan, Erica and their team were exceptional in their responsiveness to any needs or questions we posed. 10/10.

As we pulled up to the house it was way more than we expected! We came with children of all ages and they all immediately jumped in the pool and began exploring the beaches.

Fabulous property and location

Two families with 9 people including 3 teens - property was perfect. Space to congregate or retreat if you needed some space. Kitchens and grill were used but also lots of local meals. Sitting on upper balcony looking at the waves was peaceful. We saw whales and sunsets at Pools Beach, played in waves on Sandy Beach, surfed at Domes Beach and snorkeled at Steps Beach. Location was perfect for our group. Already thinking about our next visit.

Awesome spot.

Our family (two adults, two children under 4) along with a similar family stayed at Casa Kristina in February. The house was perfect for us. Very close to lots of cool stuff in Sandy Beach (Big Kahuna, Tamboo, Pool Bar, Casa Islena...) and not to mention Sandy Beach and Pools Beach too. You can still hear Tamboo bumping at night, but its not enough to keep you awake. The view from the upstairs balcony is perfect, pool and patio areas were clean and he AC in the bedrooms kept the house very comfortable. Highly recommended!
