Marvin the caretaker was awesome! The gardens and pool were kept beautiful and clean. the porches are perfect for bird watching, plane watching (as they fly right over you to land), and watching the rain. The ceiling fans throughout made the heat very bearable, including the porches! If you have a large group you will not be disappointed!

I have been staying at Casa Golfito for the past 7 years and it never disappoints! Pool facility is unrivalled. Owners are great and are committed to making they stay as enjoyable as possible. The caretakers Rodolfo and now Marvin are supper friendly and accommodating. Love this place and I can't wait to come back!

Let me start with the building & the grounds were absolutely gorgeous! The pool was amazing, clean, refreshing & bursting with life! We saw several species of birds, lizards, & other creatures right on the property. The pool was by far our favorite part, & we also loved lounging on the porch. The AC worked quite well & the beds were relatively comfortable.
That said, there's much to be improved about this location. For example, the sheets didn't fit our beds & we had to hunt through the house to find the right matches. There were 3 coffee cups for a house for 8, barley enough plates, teflon peeling pots, & we were even drinking our beverages out of dessert cups! The place had been surfaced cleaned but it was very obviously dirty in all the corners and crevices. The towels were quite old with strings hanging off of the edges. One of the sliding shower doors fell off on one of our guests & when the grounds keeper came he said, "well, there are other bathrooms!" The house says it provides concierge services, but not 1 of my 7 requests was fulfilled. Once we arrived in the area, we could see that half our requests were really not feasible for the area, but the other half did not seem unreasonable. To say that restaurants are a 20 minute walk is definitely true, but it is also down a very busy highway with no sidewalk or walking path, so it's dangerous. Right next to airport.
Overall, we had a lovely time, but we felt like we were having to "make it work" in several situations.
