What a beautiful experience we had. Craig and his team were spectacular with correspondence. The place is magical and gave us so much outside time as the kitchen, eating and relaxation areas are all outside yet covered!

Our extended family of 13 greatly enjoyed two weeks during Christmas/New Years at Paloma Azul. Craig and Cristina were extremely helpful with everything -- shuttle vans, car reservations, response to myriad questions, and restaurant recommendations. This is a classic beach house: Five sleeping rooms are enclosed with AC while the living, dining and kitchen areas are open under a palapa. This arrangement supports people being together with little privacy except in the bedrooms — which is great for bringing together families!The open living area means that it's exposed to the surrounding wildlife at all times and especially at night -- meaning that raccoons are able to enter all aspects of the kitchen, even when food is securely put away, they will knock over glasses and bottled containers, climb on counter tops, and do what they'd like during the night time hours throughout the kitchen and living area. During the day, coati, iguanas and other wildlife freely roam throughout these areas as well. We had an issue with the AC in 2 of the 5 bedrooms, as they didn't work at full power during the day when the sun is the hottest. Still, the pool and nearby ocean (extremely beautiful beach at both low and high tide!) provide ample opportunity to cool off. We couldn't find the ocean view mentioned in the VRBO description, nor the boogie boards, so we had to buy our own. Also important to note that there isn't hot water or a dishwasher in the kitchen.Overall, our family enjoyed

Our group, consisting of 16 relatives from various families, had an outstanding experience thanks to the excellent service of Craig and Cristina. They were quick to respond to our requests and provided spot-on recommendations for activities, making our stay truly enjoyable. Having Sinai as our cook for the week added an extra layer of greatness. We sincerely appreciate the effort that went into creating such a memorable experience. Thanks for an amazing stay!

This property and location was superior to any we have stayed in yet! It was clean,safe, beautiful, and more than we could have imagined. The people who took care of the property were friendly and helpful especially Melissa. Christopher and Jaime cooked for us amazing dinners and could not have been more friendly. The owner Craig and his wife were completely on top of things and so responsive to any questions we had. We would 100% recommend this property that is close to the beach, town, and anything fun u can think of

Perfect family gathering spot

This house is such a great design for pulling our family together in the palapa roofed open air living room and kitchen to enjoy the tropical air, sounds and smells of the surrounding jungle and waves in the distance. Loved the location between the beach and Bodhi Tree yoga resort. Couldn’t have been a better place for our family. Only recommendation would be for better water presssure in upstairs bathroom. We hope to return!

Amazing Guiones property

This was our favorite property that we’ve rented in playa guiones and we have been visiting for years! The outdoor space is amazing, the property is immaculately kept, proximity to the beach is excellent but above all else, the owner and the on-site maid and cook make this property stand out from all the rest! The owner was outstanding at communicating with our group via whats app and assisted us in making reservations for excursions and dinner reservations. But with the amazing on site cook, we didn’t even want to leave for other meals! I could go on and on but you won’t find a better place to vacation in playa guiones!

Nosara Beach house

Renters need to know that this house is very unconventional. There is no indoor living space. There is a beautiful pool area and a few hostel-style rooms. The rooms are terribly basic. The house maid was lovely and there was a fantastic property manager who helped us through our initial disappointment.

Birthday Celebration

Great time at the house. Craig and Cristina are amazing in managing the property and helped organize airport pickups, fishing trips, birthday cake, restaurant reservations and so much more. Super responsive and always happy to help. The on-site staff from gardener, pool personnel and the amazing Sinai were all friendly, helpful and trustworthy. We followed the advice from previous reviews and asked Sinai to cook three dinners. All were delicious and special -- thank you! The walk to the beach and into town is easy and quite nice.

This was our second time staying at Paloma Azul. Everything met our ecxpectations and beyond. Craig and Cristina were very responsive and kept in communication with us throughout our stay. The true rockstar is Sanai! Her meals are simply delicious!! We truly enjoyed her company. The bedrooms are spacious and always clean, the outdoor living space is perfect, lots of seating at the huge table for meals, lounge chairs around the pool, couches in the shade. Pool was a big hit for the kids. Beautiful spot. We’ll be back.

AMAZING PLACE!!!

Our accommodations in nosara were more than we could have dreamed of! The house was beautiful with plenty of space. All of our guests felt at home. The rooms were clean and well kept. The pool was serene and peaceful, and a beautiful space to relax. Juan Carlos was so immensely helpful during our stay. He showed us the best spots in town, and helped with anything that we could need while we were down there. The kitchen was well stocked with all equipment that we needed. It was wonderful to have such a clean, organized space as a home base while we adventured around Nosara. Thank you for the hospitality and we look forward to coming back in the future.

Great house, great area

We stayed over Thanksgiving with 12 adults. The five "kids" (23-31 year-olds) stayed in the big bedroom with the bunk beds and were just fine. Overall, the property is pristine. Really modern and well kept-up, but with a traditional look and feel. The housekeeper, Sinai, is a marvel and a wonderful cook (we had her do 3 dinners in). Easy walk to the nearby beach, maybe 10-15 minutes to the first business of the "town" (really, just shops and restaurants along the dirt roads set back from the beach). Wonderful communication with Craig, the owner. Ask him to set you up with his car rental guy in Liberia so you can skip the shuttle ride, and just pick up at the terminal. Overall, a wonderful experience, and everyone on our trip said they'd love to go back.

New Year's in Costa Rica

Craig and Cristina are terrific hosts. Incredibly helpful with trip planning (car rental, excursion, etc. recommendations and introductions via WhatsApp to secure reservations), ordered groceries for us (great to arrive to a fridge full of food after a long travel day), responsive during our stay for questions, restaurant recommendations, and coordinating meal preparations with Sinai, who provides daily housekeeping and is an excellent cook. We highly recommend hiring Sinai to cook for you. Sinai has an infectious laugh and her hand made masa tortillas, pollo con arroz, and ceviche are delicious! A number of new homes under construction was a downside. A short walk to a beautiful beach was an offsetting upside. This property is great for multiple families, as there are a number of separate suites and one community space in the ranchero adjacent to the pool. We enjoyed our stay!

Best way to turn 4 or 50!

We had five adults and five kids ranging in age from 4-12, with sleeping options to spare. We celebrated two birthdays and Thanksgiving 2016. Best money spent was to hire Elena to cook (she will also do dishes!). We loved not having a TV and being away from the resort scene. We rented two all terrain golf carts which were enough to take us everywhere, except grocery shopping. Outdoor showers and sleeping porch were well utilized. Beach access is great. The house is a challenge to find in the middle of the night, even with the directions printed and in hand. Once you know where it is, it seems easy. We had the excitement of preparing for hurricane Otto, but the weather turned out to be great. Craig stayed in touch and we had multiple options for making local contacts for assistance and information. Yes, you should go!

Perfect Getaway

First and foremost Craig and Cristina (owners/managers) provided the perfect amount of support in preparing for our stay and during our stay. We communicated via WhatsApp once we were there and if we ever had a question they responded within 5 minutes or less. ALL of the recommendations (surfing lessons, zipline, restaurants, tours, massages, fishing trips, sunset cruise, rental cars, etc.) were spot on. We just took their recommendations and the trip was seamless. We felt like we were busy but still had time for downtime (which was easy to do by relaxing by the pool). There were no surprises when we arrived and the property was exactly how it is described in the listing and pictures. The beds were very comfortable which is always a plus. One of the unexpected highlights of the stay was getting to know Sinai (housekeeper and cook) and her daughter Melisa. Have Sinai cook for you! She is the sweetest woman and her cooking is absolutely spectacular. We had planned on 6 meals (lunch and dinner) and during our stay quickly realized that the food she was cooking far surpassed many of the restaurants in town and we added more meals!!! Thank you for sharing your home with us and we WILL be back sooner than later. It was a perfect setup for 6 adults and 6 kids/teens.

Fun and surprises!

Our stay was full of fun and surprises. Hanging out in the big outdoor living space and pool was nice in the warm weather or the rain. It was a short walk to the beach where the waves were great for all ages whether jumping the waves, boogie boarding or surfing. The beautiful sunsets were fun to catch before dinner. Dinner now that was the big treat. We had Siani and her daughter cook for all of us 3 delicious traditional Costa Rican dinners. Plus, the Pico and guacamole, yum we could not get enough of it. She is available on request. It was fun exploring Nosara especially by horse back. We found the area on the other side of the point was a good place to have an authentic lunch and a beer. Some had a blast ziplining even with little children, 7 and up. Loved the Hollar Monkeys... You will just have to come explore for yourself. We cannot go without sharing a fun surprise we cancelled the expensive holiday rental cars for the local shuttle through Craig for airport transport and local transport. The drivers were always early and flexible if we needed to stop for lunch. We loved all riding together over hill and dale unconcerned with navigation. Other than that, be sure to take out the garbage at night. There are racoons that would love to help themselves. Gracias, Craig and Cristina We had an amazing vacation and your house was just right for us!

The Perfect Costa Rican Getaway!

I met a group of friends for a group vacation getaway and was quite pleasantly surprised by the vacation home rental they had chosen. The property is large, the pool with outdoor shower are refreshing, the beach is a short walk away, and the outdoor kitchen and commons area made a great central place for people to congregate, watch the sunset, enjoy some tropical beverages and, even dance! The rooms had high vaulted ceilings, were clean and beautifully decorated. WiFi made for convenient access to the "real world" if needed. The overhead speaker system was easy to use with any of our iPods. The house dogs were very sweet and really liked being taken down to the beach. Juanca, the caretaker was very sweet, helpful, and made us feel very safe. The house itself is in a gated community, adding to the safety and special, private quality of the vacation home. Playa Guiones is a fantastic little surf town on the beach, with cute shops, yoga studios, great restaurants for brunch and dinner, and plenty of surf schools. I highly recommend having some private surf lessons, which was easy for me as a beginner. Jump in your 4WD and explore beach towns up and down the Nicoya Peninsula, or just relax with a book in a hammock. This was the perfect place to get away from the world, a nice piece of paradise in beautiful Costa Rica. I'm looking forward to staying there again. It's the perfect place for large groups or families! Thank you Craig and Juanca for offering this beautiful vacation home for our enjoyment.

Great Oasis

We had a great week in Playa Guiones staying at Rancho Paloma Azul. The house was great for our group (3 families, lots of kids ages 8-17... we also had an additional family who stayed at the house next door). We spent most of our time poolside or in the outdoor kitchen at this place. The bedrooms are simple (basic furnishings), but are air conditioned and have what you need. There is a full-time housekeeper (Sinai), who does a great job keeping the place clean. She also has a great sense of humor / laugh. We also used the recommended cook (Elena), who did a great job creating meals that our whole group enjoyed. We went out a couple of times, but preferred her dishes to the restaurants. Things we appreciated: - Security (house is fully fenced with an electronic gate with openers to allow internal parking.... also, the property is in a gated community with cameras throughout) - Three outdoor showers to rinse off from the beach. It was nice when we had large groups returning from the beach to rinse off the sand - Surf racks to store our rented boards overnight - Pool, hammocks and a great outdoor hangout area A few things to know: - The house is a bit remote from the shops / restaurants in town (about a 10-15 minute walk) and the beach (about a 5 minute walk). The beach walk wasn't a problem (went twice a day on average), but we usually drove into town. - There are animals in and around the property, mainly a birds that start signing around 5:30 in the morning... also a few loud howler monkeys, some iguanas and a tapir. We loved it, but sleeping in was challenging. - The house is nice and practical, but I wouldn't consider it luxury, but a great comfortable setup, especially for families. I would highly recommend this place and would stay there again if we are ever fortunate enough to find ourselves around Nosara again. Pura Vida!

Beautoful property, close to the beach and town!

We loved our recent stay at Paloma Azul. We rented the place for a week with my husband's family. Craig was extremely easy to work with and helpful in getting us ready for our trip and Juanca was equally helpful and friendly once we arrived. He does a wonderful job maintaining the house. The house is beautifully maintained and tastefully decorated with lots of small thoughtful details which make the stay extremely pleasant and make one feel well cared for while there (similar to being at a boutique hotel). For example, we were offered cold drinks on arrival, there was daily maid service and concierge services, such as taxi bookings or excursions, from the house manager. In addition, the safes in each room allow one to charge computers, phones, etc while being locked up. The house is carefully stocked with things that one might forget to get or don't really feel like purchasing for a short trip, such as dish soap, laundry detergent, garbage bags, etc. In addition, the house has lots of the stuff you need if you are traveling with small children, such as a pack and play, a clip on high chair seat, and sand toys. There is a beautiful view of the ocean (not vast, but still highly appreciated). The rooms are simply, but beautifully decorated. While there are houses close by, it feels extremely private. The cook was wonderful -- she approaches local cuisine very thoughtfully and was helpful in planning out our meals for the week. The massage therapist was amazing, we all agreed that she provided one of the best massages that any of us had ever received. It is a short walk to the beach (great surf and never overly crowded while we were there). And about a 10 - 15 minute walk to the Yoga Institute. I would say that if you are traveling with small children and will be having them sleep in another room, it is helpful to have a monitor as there is no internal hallway to the house, so it is difficult to leave doors open or to hear from room to room (which is probably good if you don't have children with you.).

Whatever could go wrong, did

We arrive on Saturday to an empty property with nothing set up. One of my group members was able to get in touch with the host who owns the property. They had no idea we were coming. They made sure to remind me over and over that it was VRBO's fault that they did not see our reservation in their calendar and apologized profusely. Unfortunately, an apology doesn't mean it didn't happen and it really set the tone for the rest of the events that would transpire. VRBO did send me a notification about my check in 2-3 days prior to us arriving and my communication with the host on the VRBO messaging platform a month ago seemed like enough confirmation to me. After an hour or so after arriving, a team of people came to set up the property -- outdoor furniture, kitchen, rooms, bedding, etc. They were all very nice. But this means that we had to go occupy our time for 4 hours before the place was close to usable -- after a day of travel that started at 5 AM for most. The first night, a electrical surge took out the A/C (as well as a handful of other stuff). So, after an extremely frustrating conversation with the owner who wanted to remind me that this was an act of god and not his fault, they assured me that they were trying to get it fixed. From Sunday morning to Wednesday evening, we had no A/C in the bedrooms, the pool pumps didn't work, there was no hot water heater (I had my first hot shower on my birthday after being there for 5 days), the washing machine didn't work, the oven didn't work (which was unfortunate for when we tried to have birthday meals cooked). So that means we had a live-in electrician (aka random people) from Tuesday until the day we left on Saturday. There were electricians who dug up the driveway to run some electric line, which unfortunately meant I went to close the automatic driveway gate, I had to dig out the gravel with my hands to get the gate to close. The hot pot in the kitchen broke. The toilet in one of the bedrooms would leak out of the top tank, making it unusuable. One of the overhead fans in the bedroom did not work and the fans in 2 other bedrooms were barely strong enough to provide a draft. I did what I guess a host might've done for their guests (but obviously not required) -- I drove 30 minutes to find an appliance store and bought myself and my other guests 3 standing fans to help us sleep at night. I have one good thing to say -- the housekeeper Sinai was a saving grace for our stay at this location

Fantastic Place and Host

The Rancho is terrific and a great gathering place. Craig and Cristina, the hosts, were exceptionally helpful, provided an incredible team, great resources for transportation, booking activities, restaurant recommendations, and coordinated to have Sinai cook us a few amazing meals . Overall, it was a fantastic experience.
