DISCOUNT COSTA RICA FRONTBEACH FAMOUS SURFING SPOT JACO 6kms. Pool, Surf, Jungle

Great access to restaurants beaches and the jungle is right in the back yard! We were helped by a lady named Roxana and she is absolutely lovely, very helpful and gave us great advice in how to move around. Mireya wasn't there but she was very responsive to our emails, and she sent Roxana to help us out, eating at restaurants can get very expensive so we were glad we had where to cook at mireya's place. I Recommend you to get a rental car from national in Playa Herradura, we first tried to get one from avis at the airport and they were trying to charge us an extra $47 a day for insurance on top of the price to rental the car and the $500 deposit, we only paid $240 from national (alamo) plus the $500 deposit that you get back within a week of returning the car.

Mirielle was a wonderful hostess & always available to help out when needed. Very warm & welcoming !! Apartment was directly across the street from a beautiful beach as well as some good restaurants on beach. Scarlet macaws were flying directly overhead several times a day as well as other interesting birdlife The pool was quite nice & certainly welcome in the afternoon after a hot day especially since it was in the shade. Apartment comfortable but somewhat warm . The air conditioner was in the kitchen so it hardly reached the bedroom nor front porch. so we never used it Overall a great stay. Thank you Mierielle !! Hope to see you again !! Linda R

Great place close to the ocean (across the street). The appartment is confortable and enough equiped to cook some good Costa Rican meals. You can spend time in the garden to watch iguanas, parrots, tucans, monkeys and coatis. The owner (Mireille) is a such wonderful person who does everything she can to make your stay more than pleasant. It's not too far from the city of Jaco where you can go to do your grocery or enjoy time in town. I was there for 6 weeks and I hope I will go back.

The pool was nice and clean. The owner was friendly. The beach was good walking when not high tide. Furnishing is minimum with a small loveseat, small tv and 2 boards and small chairs for a computer desk. The first afternoon the large ceiling fan fell on the bed but luckily no one was hurt. The other fan over the twin beds squeaked. After a week I was shown how to change to English on the tv. Coming from a cool climate we found it quite hot in March (30) and were asked to turn off the AC when we left for walks or in the car. We killed a large cockroach and a scorpion in the bathroom. The highway 34 is very busy. We had to leave two weeks early (50%) because of the corona virus travel warning and asked for a partial refund but were told no. After complaing to homeayay 25% was refunded after subtracting the homwaway refund and the Paypal charges.
