Casa Mirage – True Beachfront Villa in Playa Grande

Private Pools • Walkable • Ideal for Families & Groups • Staffed & Secure

Step directly from the villa onto the sand—no roads, no crowds. Casa Mirage is a spacious oceanfront home on Playa Grande, offering private pools, generous indoor–outdoor living, and a calm beach setting that guests consistently appreciate for family and group stays.



Why Guests Choose Casa Mirage
• True beachfront location with direct access and unobstructed ocean views
• Two private pools, including a shallow wading pool for children
• Excellent layout for families and groups, comfortably accommodating up to 16 guests
• Quiet, uncrowded beach with surf directly out front
• Walkable location near restaurants, surf shops, and local services



The Space

Casa Mirage is a 5,100 sq ft air-conditioned oceanfront villa with 5 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms, designed to accommodate families and multi-generational groups while still offering privacy and separation when needed.

The home features:
• Fully equipped kitchen with gas stove, two refrigerators, dishwasher, and drinking-water filtration
• Open indoor living areas that flow onto shaded verandas

Pools

• Separate shallow wading / kiddie pool

The pool area sits between the villa and the beach, making it easy to move between swimming, supervising children, and enjoying the ocean throughout the day.



Outdoor Setting

With no roads or obstructions between the home and the shoreline, guests enjoy easy access to the beach and a strong connection to the natural setting—whether surfing and boogie boarding out front, walking the wide shoreline, or relaxing by the water in the evening.

As with most beachfront homes in Costa Rica, the open-air setting means you may see local wildlife such as birds, monkeys, geckos, or iguanas during your stay.



Location – Playa Grande

Playa Grande is known for its wide, clean, and uncrowded beach, offering a relaxed atmosphere that many guests prefer over busier neighboring areas.
• Approximately 1 hour from Liberia International Airport (LIR)
• About 20 minutes to Tamarindo for additional shopping, dining, and nightlife
• Walkable to restaurants, surf shops, yoga classes, spa services, and board rentals

Local conveniences include grocery options, bakery deliveries, and a weekly outdoor market with live music and vendors.

Playa Grande is a quiet, residential beach community, and we ask guests to be mindful of neighbors, especially in the evenings.

Concierge support is available to help arrange optional services (additional cost; advance request recommended).

Other Things to Note

The home is equipped with reliable Wi-Fi and modern utilities; as in much of Costa Rica, brief power or internet interruptions can occasionally occur and typically resolve quickly.

Some local services and gratuities are best paid in cash; ATMs are available nearby but may have withdrawal limits.



Additional Properties

Casa Mirage is part of Villas de Playa Grande, a family-owned collection of beachfront homes. The neighboring villa, Villa Olivia, is also available for guests traveling with extended family or larger groups—please inquire if interested.



A Note from the Owners

Casa Mirage has long been a place for family gatherings, beach days, and shared meals overlooking the ocean. We’re pleased to offer it to guests who value time together and the simple pleasure of staying steps from the sea.

Pura Vida,
The Gordon Family

This house was amazing! It was clean and had everything we needed. The town was an easy walk and had great restaurants. The whole staff was so helpful and nice. Our favorite was the house dog Morena! We had the best week at Casa Mirage.

Our group had an amazing stay! The house is well maintained, perfect location just steps from the ocean and just a gold ride away from many great restaurants! Staff is also great especially Aine, just made us feel very welcome and like we were home. Highly recommend and we are already planning on coming back next year !

The house is exactly as it appears in the photos. The staff is wonderful - especially Kimberly. Property manager and Kimberly were very responsive to any questions we had during our weeklong stay. The house is located on a very quiet part of the Playa Grande beach, which we loved! It was close to enough to enjoy Tamarindo when we wanted to go shopping or some nightlife. It was truly a wonderful vacation - definitely recommend!

We were supposed to stay in April of 2020, but we’re able to postpone to this year. We had an amazing stay. It was so nice for the kids to be able to go back and forth between the pool and the beach all day. Kimberly cooked for us all week, breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It was wonderful to not have to think about the meals and everything tasted fantastic.
