My family stayed at the property during Christmas 2016… Casa Del Pacifico is a beautifully designed house, with an adjoining shaded patio overlooking a serene infinity pool, a beautiful hillside, and finally the Pacific ocean to complete the feast for the eyes and soul. It provided the setting for a once in a lifetime experience for myself and family and friends. I will always cherish waking up to stunning ocean views from the bed through the floor to ceiling windows. This beautiful experience came with some challenges given my needs – I require a scooter to get around – but the very friendly caretaker, Stephen, built a ramp for me to get in/out of the casa, which was so helpful, allowing me to zip around the property. An additional significant bonus is the raised platform (~5 inches below water surface and ~7 foot diameter) in the pool, which allowed me to access the pool with assistance. I spent seemingly endless, beautiful days floating in the infinity pool, while viewing the ocean or monkeys climbing in the trees along the patio. Also, it was super fun and very functional to experience an outdoor shower and restroom! It is a secluded paradise, with ocean breezes through the shaded palm and fruit tree groves. It is a wonderful, magical place to experience wildlife and stunning scenery during the day and dark star-filled nights. While the trip would have been perfect without leaving the property, we were also able to enjoy many wonderful outdoor activities such as the nature preserve, zip lining through the jungle canopy, wonderful beaches, and wonderful restaurants and people throughout the area. Truly, be ready for “the trip of a lifetime,” as my friend said it would be! Monica McKivens2024-10-09Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had an incredible time at Casa Del Pacifico and Casa Del Gulfo. The location was perfect, and the house itself was even better than the pictures! It was clean, cozy, spacious, and modern, and had all the amenities I needed, like WiFi and kitchen supplies. The host made this stay extra special. They went out of their way to ensure I was comfortable, recommended some great local spots, and arranged transportation. I highly recommend this property to anyone visiting Costa Rica. I can't wait to come back! Amanda Bell2024-10-08Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I stayed at the Casual Costa retreat over New Years last year & it was pure magic!! The view was like nothing I've ever seen before! Absolutely stunning! I'm convinced it's the best one in Santa Theresa. The pool was a dream to swim in as the sun set, and the kitchen had all the amenities one would need to cook a good meal. I loved that fact that it's tucked away, but you can still get to everything in the town quite easily. I can't wait to take another trip down there bc I literally dream about this house on the regular.

Petra Ronald2024-09-19Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I stayed at Costa Casual Retreats last year with my family, and it was pure magic! We had an absolute blast from start to finish. First off, the place itself was unlike anything I’ve ever experienced. It felt like a secluded forest escape, yet we were only a few minutes’ drive from town. The view was INCREDIBLE, and one morning, I got to enjoy my coffee while watching little monkeys right outside our window. Honestly, it would have been a fantastic vacation just soaking up the sun by the pool and taking in the breathtaking views, but we couldn’t resist exploring the rest of Santa Teresa. And thank goodness we did because we did it all – surfing, deep-sea fishing, ATVing, horseback riding – you name it, we tried it. And the food? Absolutely delicious! You can’t beat the local fresh fruits and juice! Overall, Costa Casual Retreats provided us with an unforgettable experience. The combination of exciting activities, stunning scenery, warm and friendly people, and amazing food made it a trip to remember. If you’re looking for a unique and magical getaway in Costa Rica, this is the place to be!
