Look no further- this condo has it all!
We loved everything about our stay and would highly recommend to others! 1. Super location- right on the beach with a quiet condo pool, and the added benefits of the Crocs resort access next door with more pools, bars, restaurants and casino. Also close enough to walk to town for shopping and dining. 2. Great host- Barry was super responsive to questions and helpful. Condo was very clean and had everything that we needed, instructions to operate tv, wifi etc. were helpful. 3. Other comments- the condo complex is also very quiet, we never heard anyone above us or on either side during our stay. 24 hour security and gated access were a plus. Great views of the ocean from the balcony and beautiful sunsets.

Not recommended
Would not recommend this property. Owner refused to let us out of our week long rental after more than half of deck cracked and came out of ground as a result of shifting. There are plenty of less expensive rentals nearby. The parking is almost nonexistent if you were to bring a vehicle as. Ocean can be barely seen from patio through the palm trees. I would not describe this as a luxury condo.

We would book this property again!
We loved staying at The Palms. Our condo was everthing that was listed on line. We had an extended stay vacation of 3 weeks. The owner of the condo was gracious enough to keep in contact with us through out our stay to ensure that we were doing ok, finding our way around, answering questions about restaurants, and any additional help. This unit exceeded our expectations, 100%. The owner exceeded our expectations, 100%. Costa Rica did not disappoint. Pura Vida!

Amazing thanks Barry
Our experience was great!! Barry the property manager was very good to deal with, he was accommodating and easy to connect with. The condo was nice, modern and had all essentials. When we arrived it was a pleasure to see all of the local art work throughout the condo. The condo was clean and well organized with an amazing view of the beach. The beds were very comfortable. The outdoor living area on the balcony was perfect for 4 people it was spacious and had comfortable loungers. We were lucky enough to be able to watch a lightning storm over the ocean one evening from the balcony as well as watch the amazing sunsets almost every night. The BBQ on the balcony was a nice touch which we used on several occasions. We absolutely had a great experience and would definitely return to this condo next time we are in Costa Rica Thanks again Barry

Excellent Condo in an ideal location
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Palms. The condo was clean, well-stocked, and accurately described. The beds and linens were very comfortable, the AC worked great, and the check-in/check-out process was a breeze. And having access to the pool and amenities at Crocs next door is also a huge plus. This is a very nice condo with an owner (Barry) that is readily available for any questions or concerns - a real value and comfort all the way around. I look forward to a return visit.

Very Nice Location
Location was only 5 min trip from main strip, ubers were a little hard to get but can take a taxi everywhere! Would like to book for a longer stay, but my trip was to see multiple area in Costa Rica! The Security staff was very helpful! Barry was very accessible thru the Whats app Application! Ready to do this again!!!

Amazing View
We chose to stay at this property for the view and we were not disappointed. We spent many evenings on the patio watching the sun set and listening to the waves crashing on the shore. It is modern, spacious, clean, and comfortable. It is at the north end of the beach so it is away from too much noise and activity. There are good restaurants and stores within easy walking distance. Or we could walk a little further or take a cheap taxi ride and have access to a larger selection. The beach is 4 km long and a very enjoyable walk, especially during low tide. A great place to have a memorable vacation.

Vacation of a lifetime!
We loved our stay at this condo. We had a beach front view of the ocean. The sound of the ocean was relaxing. We saw lizards, iguanas, tri-color squirrels, maccaws, and various other birds from our balcony. There were coconut and almond trees right off the side of our balcony. If we had any questions the owner, Barry, replied, via text, in a timely manner. Parking is very limited at the condo, but we had free access to the pool and parking at the resort/casino next door. The condo was clean, modern, and the A.C. units were wonderful. The security staff was helpful and friendly. We booked 2 excursions through the property management company and was well satisfied with them. And, our deposit was processed and returned within a week of our arriving back home. If our family ever goes back to Jaco, Costa Rica, we would stay here again.

Amazing Condo on the Beach!
So many people we talked to were surprised that we were staying in Jaco during our Costa Rica trip, now after staying in Jaco, and this condo, we are SO GLAD that we made it one of our stops! Not only is the condo fabulous, the location and people we met there made it a highlight for us. Barry and the management team have thought of every detail to insure your stay is comfortable. We enjoyed the use of the Crocs resort next door. The tips in the information book for places to eat and best sunset location were priceless. The hidden gem, Chinitas Paradiso for lunch is a must! Pura Vida!!

Best view and location in the building
We had a power outage for about 30 minutes but so easy to walk down. I felt sorry for people on higher floors, especially in the hot weather. This unit is on the second floor, so you never need to lock the doors, and security is directly across from the suite. Professional paintings throughout offers a luxury feel. High quality towels, bed sheets and cutlery added to our experience. We really enjoyed ourselves and look forward to coming back every year.

FANTASTIC BEACH FRONT CONDO
Unit was spotless with everything you need. Managed by local agency Lost Beach Vacations with very attentive staff. Building protected by gated security. Adjacent to Croc's Hotel and Casino the best hotel in Jaco, unit had full access to Croc's pool and spa, perfect for kids and adults both. Directly on beach with unobstructed view. Owner Barry could not have been nicer. Great condo for great price! Thank-you Barry and Lost Beach.
