What a great little place right on the beach. Loved the proximity to the tours we were doing and the space was perfect for the 3 of us for spring break. Really enjoyed the patio space with hammocks. Had a minor issue with housekeeping not putting a garbage bag in the garbage but I would still highly recommend this place.
Lina’s casita in Playa Hermosa is absolutely incredible!
My stay at this property was nothing short of perfect. Situated close to the beach, it offers a hassle free location and within walking distance of several fantastic restaurants. Grocery stores are conveniently nearby, and it’s just a short drive from Liberia Airport. The property itself is immaculate, beautifully decorated, and provides a private, secluded retreat. I can’t recommend this place enough – it truly exceeded all my expectations!
The only bad thing that I can say about this rental is that I only had one night in it. It is amazing and Lina was wonderful. I cannot wait to come back and have a longer stay. The beach is so close and is just amazingly peaceful.
This cottage was so cute and perfect for our needs. We felt very safe. It was well equipped and I'm sure that if we needed anything, Lina was on the property and easily reached. There's a path that takes you right to the beach and you can hear the surf. We hope to come back one day.
They were a lot of vegetation around. The beach was close but for a stay of 2 weeks, they should have had a washer and dryer. The greeting was so, so. I found that the price was too high.
Playa Hermosa in the fall is a beautiful place to relax and take a break from the hecticness of life. La Casita is a beautiful 'cottage' only steps from the ocean! Restaurants and massages are steps from the beach! Lina and Carol are perfect host and manager who made sure that everything we wanted and needed was available! Birds,tropical hermit tree crabs, howler monkeys visit La Casita from time to time making it a nature lovers dream. The landscaping is parklike!

Perfect quiet place, right on the beach. You cannot go wrong with this one.
We had a magical time here. A very short walk to the beach with an astounding view of the bay. The host and her assistant were so kind and very attentive. There are beach side restaurants 5 minutes away and it doesn't feel at all touristy. I strongly encourage anyone to check out this lovely guest house.
Really enjoyed our stay. Home was very clean and secure. Lina was super helpful and provided everything we needed for a great time! Loved it and hope to return
This property is in a great location - I would highly recommend it to anyone. The pics are accurate. Playa Hermosa is a great beach - we liked it more than Playa Coco and it's easy to get to. There are a few restaurants within walking distance of this place, all of them delicious and convenient.
The property is nice - well appointed, air conditioning and fans, kitchen supplies, etc.
That said, do not do your laundry here. The listing says laundry and when we inquired about it, the property assistant did some for us - we would've been happy to do our own. On the last day of our stay, the owner told us it cost $15. Yes, $15 for one small load of laundry - and we were not informed that there would be a cost at all!
The rest of the stay was good.
Greet stay!! Beautiful Casita. The kitchen had everything you needed…could even buy a bottle of wine from the top shelf!!! Enjoy a glass of wine in the bathrobes provided & read a book in the hammock! Great location with a short walk to the beach. We wish we could have stayed longer. Highly recommend this place!!
A private access to hermosa beach, Lina is a wonderful host she gave us tips for our short stay.
Lina’ place is well think as you have every thing you need !
Thanks again Lina !

Cute hidden and only a couple of summersaults from the beach...
We loved our stay at this cute little place! It’s a one minute walk to the beach and the location is great in Playa Hermosa. The outdoor shower was nice after walking back from the beach and the porch was perfect to sit and relax. Loved the decorations and setup. Exactly what we needed for a getaway.

This place was my favorite stay in our whole trip to Costa Rica. The casita was very clean. It had everything we needed. Lina is very quick to respond to any messages which was nice because we weren’t exactly sure where to go and we got to town a little early.
Her property is beautifully landscaped with trees and a private walkway straight to the beach. The beach is literally only steps away from the house. We walked down the beach and stopped at a couple bars for drinks. We ended our stay watching the sunset on the beach. We loved our stay here and were sad we had only booked it for one night. Definitely recommend staying here!
We were super happy with our stay at Lina's small guest house. Pictures show exactly what you get...clean, comfy, peaceful, and a close walk to the beach. We stayed 2 nights and loved the outdoor living space and beautiful beach right down the path. Lina was available for any questions or details & has a wealth of info. about Costa Rica. We walked down the beach to Roberto's for breakfast each morning-so yummy. Places for food and HH on the beach but not overcrowded. Small market close for simple groceries.
I would recommend this property in a heartbeat-we really enjoyed our time there.
