Amazing Hosts In Puntarenas!
What a wonderful stay! Casa Rector was an excellent choice for our family, my brother's family and my parents. The property was well stocked with everything we needed, including life jackets for our kids. Mirabel and Arturo, the on site caretakers are INCREDIBLE! We hired Mirabel to look after the cleaning and some cooking and it was worth every penny to enjoy our stay. Mirabel is a wonderful cook and always proactively anticipating our needs (towels, ice cream for the kids, etc) Arturo did a wonderful job looking after the pool was always there to help with the gate when we were coming/going with the car. The property was clean and well maintained despite some signs of age, but anything we needed was attended to right away. The pool was excellent. The shallow end is still approx 4 feet deep, so we just had to be extra cautious with the younger kids in our group. We loved going down to the beach to jump around the waves and watch sunsets. Thank you Richard for sharing your beautiful property with us. We had a wonderful stay!

Overall we enjoyed our stay. The property description and photos were accurate for the listing. The owner was in touch with us shortly after we booked and a few days before check in to ensure we had everything we needed. There was plenty of space for our large group.

Beautiful view!
We had a wonderful stay, and I would highly recommend this house! My communication with the owner ahead of time was outstanding, and the caretakers at the house were wonderful & very helpful. As others say, though, brush up on your Spanish as they do not speak English. Also, bring bug spray!

Family time
This was a great place to use as a base and take off each day to go exploring. Arturo and Maribel were very gracious and helpful. We had Maribel cook for us several nights and she did our laundry, which was a blessing. I injured my foot and she went to the pharmacy to get me some numbing solution. We were there during the rainy season, which we loved. We enjoyed the pool, and loved watching and hearing the waves crash in on the beach. I’m not sure why they preferred that we stay off the beach. Our room had an issue cooling down and they had someone right out to work on it. Maribel had fresh fruit cut up for us several mornings, which was a real treat! The owner of the property was incredible, we corresponded and spoke by phone several times and he reassured me he would make everything right. Which he did, above and beyond. By the way, he doesn’t text! We were so sorry while we were there that they lost one of their beautiful German shepherds. We couldn’t get the translation straight as to what happened. There was a black lab there also, that we think was named ‘Bacon’. Our grand daughter cried when we left Bacon at the house. This house was perfect for us, we are not resort people so it didn’t bother us that there was not AC in the common room. If it got too hot, we’d go swimming or go into our rooms. We loved the geckos, iguanas & squirrels. Thank you to Rich, Arturo and Maribel for making our family of 11 have such a memorable vacation! Ron and Sue

March stay
The property was fantastic and precisely as described. The caretakers, Arturo and Maribel, on site were friendly and incredibly helpful. The area itself is not a huge tourist area so you may have to drive to get to those.

Beautiful Beachside Property
My husband and i stayed for one week and then our daughters came with their families for the second week. It was a very relaxing vacation, with a lovely pool, and we loved the access to the beach. Our grandchildren were in heaven, running around the spacious property, swimming in the pool, and playing on the beach. This is the place for anyone looking for a beach/pool vacation. Puntarenas was disappointing as a town, but there is good local shopping within walking distance. Marabel and Arturo give five star service, looking after their guests as if they were family. They are the true gems of this property. The house itself could use some updating and the gate to the beach should be made more secure. But all in all, it is a great spot, and we would definitely go again. Richard, the property owner, is splendid at communication and we couldn’t have asked for better or more accomodating hosts.

Comfortable and pretty views!
We were mostly using as a “base camp” while we played tourist but did spend most of one afternoon at the house and in the pool. Enjoyed a beautiful sunset! Loved the screened in porch to enjoy outside without bugs. The property manager Arturo was incredibly helpful with everything we needed.

Amazing hosts, but gross inside
We loved the couple that was there to welcome us and help us with whatever we needed. The grounds were beautiful. The inside was gross and we found a cockroach in the bed. It is also not in a good location, any activities are at least a twenty minute drive

This is the first bad review I ever had. Our house is a typical Costa Rica Beach house. Just read the reviews below her and see if people agree. I think that they are just spoil in their Flordia type living. When your on the ocean you never know what you will find. Have a Great Day Rich

Amazing!!!!
The property is beautiful and well maintained. Arturo was so nice and helpful. He setup our 3 hammocks every morning and then took them down at night. Maribel and her daughter cooked dinner for us for 5 nights. Their cooking was so good and something that we will always remember. Richard was very helpful with directions and places to visit and booking tours.

Cleanliness, privacy, perfection
The communication with the home owner and management is very easy. We were warmly welcomed by the property managers Arturo and Maribel!! The house has the perfect size and layout to accommodate a multiple family group! Each room is spacious, clean, and has a private bathroom. We had a group with over 6 children and theres is plenty of yard for them to play. Will definitely go back in the future!!!

Very nice
Overall, the property was awesome. Arturo and Maribel take a lot of pride in their work. Her cooking was really good, and they were very helpful with everything. They work really hard to make sure you worry about nothing but enjoying vacation. The location is not bad, but I do have to say that if you are looking to see some of the natural wonders in Costa Rica, plan on spending quite a bit of time on the road. Do yourself a favor and really put some time into researching where and what you’re hoping to go see. However, if hanging out at the beach and pool is what you’re after, I would highly recommend going here. The waves crashing at night were awesome to hear and it was very relaxing to sit by the pool or in the living/dining area at night.

Belle semaine
Tout est conforme à ce qui était annoncé. Arturo et Maribel sont des hôtes très attentifs, chaleureux et bienveillants. La plage est belle mais la mer est très agitée, presque dangereuse à certains moments. La ville de Puntarenas est banale. Il vaut peut-être mieux louer une auto que de payer le gros prix pour des excursions. Somme toute nous avons passé une très belle semaine en famille.

Relaxing beach time
Casa Rector was a perfect fit for our group of 14. The pictures do not do it justice. The grounds are beautiful, Arturo does a great job maintaining them. Everyone had enough room to have their own space, but a great common area for meals and down time. And speaking of meals, Maribel's cooking was fabulous. We will miss Casa Rector as we treasure our memories of our time there. We chose it to have down time at the beach and that is exactly what it was.

Wonderful Family Vacation Home!!!
This house was PERFECT for our group of 7. It honestly could have easily slept twice as many people. Each room has it's own bathroom (which is great when traveling with teenagers). The caretakers were WONDERFUL! No only did we arrive to a fully cooked dinner and drinks, but They accompanied us to the grocery store so we would know how to find it. They offered to cook for us, do our laundry and gave us so much helpful information while we were there. I loved how every evening they would walk through the outdoor space after we all went to sleep and would bring in any personal items left out. Also we LOVED the dogs on the property. They were so sweet and well behaved. Our kids had so much fun hanging out with them. The location of the home is wonderful. It is very close to plenty of things to do, but far enough away to be very quiet and serene. We used the pool for most of our swimming, but the ocean is steps away. We easily found plenty of restaurants and shops in walking distance, along with taking a few day trips to the local towns for ziplining, animal sanctuaries, and waterfall adventures. Thank you so much for the wonderful stay Rich!!! You have been beyond helpful the whole way through our trip!

A great, sunny, fun place to hang out with friends, low-key style
We are four friends from (long-ago) college, and we had never been to Costa Rica before, and didn't know what to expect. Staying here was fun and easy, Arturo and Maribel, the caretakers, were kind and lovely. The owner connected us to Varso Travel, which made everything easy, from snorkeling in Tortuga to exploring volcanos—lunch included. Even on the hottest days, the pool was always welcoming. It is rustic—multiple beds per room, an extremely adorable puppy running around, no AC in the main eating area—but it was also comfortable and welcoming, with fresh cut-up fruit waiting for us when we arrived, and everyone willing to help us out whenever we asked. Michael of Varso Travel even brought us to a supermarket on the way back from the volcano so we could do a quick shopping trip. A really fun place to go.

Beautiful house for large group/family vacation...beach and pool in the back yard!
Our group of 13 had a wonderful family vacation at this Costa Rican house that had everything. The home has 6 separate bedrooms, with 5 bathrooms, plenty of pool side and shady spots, as well as walk out to the sand and beach. The house was well laid out, clean and had a large common space with a table to seat our whole group. The house keeper Maribelle was amazing, and highly recommended for hire for daily services. Artour, the grounds keeper/security was also very helpful, diligent and kind to our family. Maribelle and Artour also helped us with shopping, arranging travel and navigation of the neighbourhood and attractions. They had diner and refreshments waiting for us when we arrived from the airport, and made all of us comfortable during our entire stay. The home owner Rich was very helpful prior to our trip, and also made several excellent recommendations for services ie Varso Travel for excursions and group outings as well as visiting near by town/beach for NYE fireworks to all celebrate together. Our group had so much fun and made such great memories at this house, we will long be grateful for this amazing spot and experience to share our time together. Thank you!! Laura :)

The pool was beautiful. The beach right there and the acvomidations were great.
The most amazing thing about our stay was Arturo and Maribell, the caretakers for Casa Rector. They were great!!!. Maribelle cooked for us and the meals were delicious. She went to the grocery store with us and showed us what to buy. She kept the house immaculate and even went to the pharmacy when one of our family needed help. Arturo keeps the grounds beautifully and the pool. When we went to the beach he watched over us to keep us safe. He would pick up all our shoes and belongings at night and lock them up and lay them all back out for us the next morning. We felt completely safe with him there. Both were absolutely wonderful and we would have liked to take them home with us. The house was clean and comfortable. Plenty of room for 12 people. Air conditioning in all the bedrooms. We only ate out twice for lunch, the rest of the time Maribell cooked for us. The shrimp restaurant 2 blocks away is delicious. We would go back right now and stay there. We used Varso travel which was right down the street. Very convenient!

Wonderful Home!
Our group of 13 students and 2 chaperones had a wonderful time at the house and on the beach. The caretakers were very attentive and actually had a pizza and fresh fruit waiting for us at our arrival (2 AM!). I had to ask them to stop picking up after our group and wanted the students to be responsible for their things. The home was clean and we had plenty of hot water for showers our group of 15. The caretakers also got up earlier than our group and had coffee waiting on us each morning and prepared huge piles of drift wood for nightly bonfires on the beach. The grounds were immaculate with fresh fruit trees and the pool was cleaned twice a day. There was also plenty of wildlife - birds, iguanas, frogs on the grounds and crabs on the beach. The local town was not very welcoming to tourists, but we made excursions to Jaco, Waterfalls, Zip Lines, Crocodile Man Tour and Flora & Fauna Conservatories all of which were very welcoming to our group. I am looking forward to my next trip to Costa Rica - PURA VIDA!

Authentic Costa Rican hospitality!
Our group of 10 stayed here at Casa Rector for 3 nights, and we all would have loved to stay longer! Our group was 2 families-- 4 adults and 6 kids under the age of 13. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here, and would be happy to stay again! NEGATIVES: But first, I will start with the "negatives" we experienced at the beginning. When we first arrived, we were a little shocked because the streets outside the front gate look run-down. And once we got into the house area, we were a little startled to see that every bedroom opens directly to the outside porch areas, and are not enclosed like a typical house is. This made us a little nervous because of our children, and we didn't want any of them wandering out in the night. Since the youngest child was 8, we were able to manage. But someone with really young kids might want to take that into consideration. One last point- the beach is too rough for swimming and playing most of the day. But in the morning it is fairly calm until at least 8-9am. For us, these things were outweighed by all the positives! POSITIVES: Rich, the owner, did a great job of staying in touch with me during the time leading up to our arrival. And once we were there, he called to make sure we made it okay. (He lives in the US, so he wasn't there.) We felt so very welcomed by Arturo and Maribel, the property managers. Their genuine hospitality was a blessing the whole time! (They don't speak English, so it would be helpful if you can speak at least a few key words of Spanish.) Arturo is a very hard worker, and the grounds and pool are beautiful and immaculate. Anytime we wanted to walk to a grocery store or restaurant, Arturo walked with us. We felt like he was a guide and protector. Maribel cooked for us, and cleaned up after us faster than we could. All while smiling and encouraging. They are so kind and hospitable, and definitely exhibit the beautiful attitude of welcoming others. It's clear that they love their jobs! We enjoyed some day trips... and definitely recommend Varso Travel. Go do the snorkeling and boat ride to Isla Tortuga, and also go see the white-faced monkeys. They're fun!

The condition of weather the ocean is calm or rough all depends on high and low tides. IT varies, The tides move light a clock. During low tide the ocean is always calm, like glass. During high tide is when the waves are big and rough. Tides change twice a day. Roads are typical bad in Costa Rica. Three years ago they were perfect. I would think that they will be doing the road soon again because we are next to a hospital.
