Casa Linda is a beautiful home in Playa Grande, on the North Pacific coast of Costa Rica. The villa is a modern, fully furnished 4 bedroom, 3 1/2 bathroom home located in a gated community, a little more than 2 Km from the beach. Nestled in the quiet hills overlooking Las Baulas National Park, Casa Linda is surrounded by peaceful lush nature, and offers amazing ocean and sunset views. The tropical hills around the house host an incredible variety of plants and animals. Casa Linda is built in a modern and wide open style, designed to take full advantage of the natural environment and gorgeous views. The living room, dining room and kitchen are located upstairs, while the bedrooms and bathrooms are on the lower level. The open gourmet kitchen comes fully stocked, and has granite counters and stainless steel appliances, including a dishwasher and microwave. The living room has a large flat screen TV equipped with cable. You can relax in the serenity of the outside covered patio overlooking the infinity pool and lush gardens, in the company of tropical birds and howler monkeys. While the house is an oasis of privacy and peace, it is an easy 10 minute walk to the restaurants and surf shops of Playa Grande. A little further south, on the other side of the estuary, lies the bustling town of Tamarindo, with an abundance of shopping, dining and partying possibilities. Playa Grande is a part of Las Baulas National Park, a protected area in Costa Rica where the world’s largest leatherback turtles nest every year. The region is known for world class surfing, and some of the richest fauna and flora on the planet. The beautiful white sand beach stretches for miles, ideal for long sunset walks or early morning runs. Because of the proximity of the national park, Playa Grande is sparsely developed, making it extremely quiet, private and peaceful. The location of the house is perfect for tourism and adventure. The coast to the north and south is peppered with many beautiful beaches to visit, including the famous Playa Conchal, and the lovely Playa Flamingo, just a 15 minute drive away. The entire Nicoya Peninsula extends to the south, with its amazing nature, surfing spots, gorgeous white sand beaches and wildlife. In addition, the major volcano and cloud forest sites of Costa Rica are only a couple of hours inland of Playa Grande. After your reservation is confirmed, a standard rental agreement will be provided, to be signed by the host and the renter.
