About this house rental

Casa Sirena (The Mermaid's House)

Setting:
Located just 10 steps from our property is the beautiful beach of Esterillos Oeste. The house is on a small dirt road directly across from the beach.

House:
All of the wood work in our beach house is handcrafted from tropical hardwoods. To protect the forests we used only timber from fallen trees. All countertops and sinks are hand built from colored concrete. The house is two stories with three bedrooms and two full baths upstairs and two beds with one large full bath downstairs. Each of the bedrooms upstairs has a queen sized bed with the largest bedroom having an additional twin bed. Two bedrooms upstairs share one large bathroom, each with its own entrance. There is abundant closet and drawer space. The linens and mattresses are of the highest quality. Each bedroom has air conditioning and a ceiling fan. With the windows open, you can be lulled to sleep by the sound of the sea.

More house details:
The first floor houses the kitchen, dining room and living room areas which are spacious and comfortable. There is wireless internet.

The full kitchen is equipped with appliances and everything one would need to prepare meals. The dining room table seats 12 comfortably.

With the downstairs doors open you have a perfect view of the coconut palms on the beach. Throughout the house is air conditioning and ceiling fans. There is a fully equipped laundry room just off of the kitchen.

Grounds:
Outside there is a pool and a covered rancho with a sink and simple barbecue. Convenient to the kitchen, this is a fun area for socializing. Imagine lounging in the pool sipping a margarita, hearing the ocean and the calls of the scarlet macaws eating in the nearby trees. Butterflies flutter and iguanas sun. Coconut palm trees are everywhere giving shade and fresh coconut meat.

Our caretaker, Lilliam, lives on the property and is available when needed. She
cleans the pool early each morning and will prepare typical foods or clean for an additional fee.

Great for entertaining, our house is perfect for large families gatherings, a reunion of friends, or just a quiet getaway. We have hosted proposals, honeymoons, anniversaries and birthdays.

Esterillos beach is "off the beaten path", far from the over developed tourist spots. It can be perfect for surfing and boogie boarding and at other times, great for swimming and playing in the water. You will quickly get to know the ocean's tides so that you can have those favorite beach experiences each day of your stay.

You will love the long and beautiful beach where you can walk for miles in either direction. Close by on the beach there are many large tide pools perfect for children (and adults) to swim in, snorkel or just relax and watch the ocean. The tide pools were formed by lava overflow and you may find some fossils! There are beautiful and varied shells making for fantastic beach combing. There is a majestic mermaid statue right on the beach that has become an icon of the wonderful Esterillos Oeste.

Esterillos Oeste is a 2 hour drive from the airport on the Central Pacific coast. It is a small, typical village on a tranquil beach just 20 minutes south of the town of Jaco. There you will find casinos, restaurants of all types, shops, bars, jazz and lots of night-life.

Forty minutes south of Esterillos is the town of Quepos and the world famous Manuel Antonio National Park, one of the finest rain forest parks in the country. It is home to a large diversity of wildlife including two species of monkeys, one of which is very rare and uses its bushy tail for balance. There are turtles, many birds and a sloth trail. It is a great place for hiking and has beautiful white sand beaches. There are some incredible views from high up on the rocky cliffs a ways into the jungle.

Other activities in the Esterillos area include:

Zip lining
Monkey tours
Birdwatching
Mangrove bird watching
Deep sea fishing
Scuba diving
Surfing
Surfing lessons
Horseback jungle tours
Horseback beach tours
Boogie boarding
Snorkeling
Massage
And more- if you don't find it in this list, just ask.

Casa Sirena is a perfect home base to enjoy the wide variety of activities in the area or just chill beach side, enjoy the pool, boogie board or watch the sunset.

We prefer to rent to conscientious people who have respect for nature and will treat our home as if it were their own.

Please review our rental agreement and cancellation policy.

The host was amazing. She contacted us ahead of our stay and make sure every question was answered. Top-notch.
10 / 10Outstanding·Dec 2025
The location was amazing because it is part of a very small community right on the a huge long beach with wild surf. There were times when you were the only ones on the beach in either direction. You got the sunrise and the sunset. There was a beautiful lush transition green space full of palms and birds. The caretaker and her son were very accommodating to put up and take down the hammocks when we were there to use them and they did many other helpful things in the warmest manner. Our group of six adults were very happy there.The neighborhood is very positive and interesting and it was an easy drive from SJ airport, to stores and restaurants locally and in Jaco and many other beautiful locations like Manuel Antonio. One of us even needed to use the Urgent Care in Esteriillo and Dr. Dan was amazing and totally took care of the problem . The owner did a great job of communicating all aspects of our stay there from the house to tours and great massages. My birthday and week could not have been better!

Nothing but great things can be said regarding Casa Sirena. From the moment we walked in, we knew we made an amazing decision. Extremely clean, comfortable and everything we could have needed was available to us. We did have a minor issue with wifi but that was solved with ease & patience. The house is just a few steps from the beach and about 1/2 mile from the life guard station of Esterillos Oeste Beach. We had an amazing view of the sunset and sat out on the bank every night to watch the incredible skies. Liliam, the caretaker, was by far the best part of this home. From the moment she greeted us, we could tell she was a special human being. Every morning she ensured that the pool and yard were clean & well kept. She was always quick to reply to any questions we had. Liliam also cooked for us 2x— one day was beef taquitos and the second was a fish lunch (fish my husband/son caught). It was absolutely delicious! We were also pleasantly surprised with arroz con leche (thanks Emily)! Lastly, fresh coconuts that Lili harvested from a tree in the back. We truly enjoyed our stay and look forward to future trips to Esterillos and this beautiful home!

The location is excellent. Esterillos beach is spectacular! Lilliam the caretaker was sweet and very helpful. If you need help getting around, surfing or expeditions you should reach out to Jorge and his wife who own Aloha Surf and are also the caretakers of the turtle sanctuary!
