The town is surrounded mostly by patches of rice fields, grazing cattle, and thick tropical rainforest. Once you arrive in the modest town center near the beach, you will find a couple of small grocery stores, a few restaurants. Costa Ricans live in Esterillos Oeste, but there is also a sizeable population of ex-pats from USA and Canada including several living around the house. Esterillos offers stunning views of the Pacific, and access to some of the best surfing and paddling in Costa Rica. This area is renowned for its abundance of fish, including black and blue marlin, sailfish and dorados, making it the perfect spot to cast a line and land a live one with sportsfishing expeditions. Visitors who want to remain on dry land can head out into the lush rolling hills that surround Esterillos Oeste on an ATV, or indulge in a leisurely trek through the countryside on horseback. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Pool/Spa - Outdoor pool - Private pool ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Limo/town car service - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Electric kettle - Kitchen island - Kitchenette - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Chef service - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 4 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2.5 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Books - Games - TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Fenced yard - Garden - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair ### Comfort - Air conditioning ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Housekeeping (limited availability) - Iron/ironing board - Safe ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In a village - Near a hospital - Near the sea ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Ecotours nearby - Fishing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Parasailing nearby - Sailing nearby - Snorkeling nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden ## Similar properties ![On the beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33950000/33942000/33941959/2457b37e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Casa los Sueños - Beachfront house with pool Esterillos Oeste - Pool - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 9.8 Exceptional 8 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-18&endDate=2025-11-19&selected=33941959&PinnedHotelID=33941959&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/35000000/34760000/34752000/34751951/56ee67c8.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Casa Tres Pochotes - Beach Front Paradise CR - Pool - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 10 Exceptional 77 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-18&endDate=2025-11-19&selected=34751951&PinnedHotelID=34751951&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/28000000/27120000/27117000/27116907/9ee74d0f.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Beachfront Casa Barracuda 3BR Luxury, pool w 1/3 acre, Playa Hermosa de Jaco!

The property has solid walls and gates, which is great for feeling secure, although the town does not feel un-safe at any point. The beach is a short walk, as is the grocery store and several restaurants. I stayed with my wife and our 2 kids, and the house is a perfect size for the 4 of us. There are plenty of beds to sleep more, but I suspect a large group would find the common space a bit crowded. Overall this is a great spot to vacation. I highly recommend it. ##### Will R.

Apr 7, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful Property This is a beautiful property! We really enjoyed our time here. The grounds are beautiful and it is very quiet and peaceful. We spent a great deal of time on the open rooftop of the guest house; relaxing area with views of the ocean and sunsets. Our two teenagers used the guest house and thought that was pretty great (had I checked out the guest house and it’s bathroom before the last day, I would have claimed it ). The pool was clean and the poolside shower was a plus! The house is quite spacious, so we could have time by ourselves as needed. We were without most of the power for over 12 hours one night/morning so that got a bit hot without the AC/fans, but this seemed to be an issue with the power company as a truck came and rectified the issue minutes before the property manager and technician got to the house (and thankfully the kitchen continued to have power for some reason so we didn’t lose any of our food). Besides the power issue which was not the owner’s fault, our stay here was wonderful! We would definitely stay here again if we visit CR again; the property is a bit far (hour) from the activities we wanted to do, but, in our opinion, the tranquility of the property is worth the extra drive time. Thank you for letting us use your property; we had a great time!!A word of caution about driving from the property to La Fortuna- it was a terrifying journey (very narrow sometimes unpaved mountainous roads with no shoulder and huge drop offs) ##### Brad C.

Dec 30, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Nice stay with family My wife, our 3 adult children and I stayed for a week during the Christmas holidays. The property was very comfortable and exactly as described on VRBO. The house sits in a quiet and quaint village. As described on VRBO, the beach is just a short walk away from the house. Although it is certainly not the prettiest beach in the world, it is wide, clean and wasn't very crowed (even on the weekend). There are some nice restaurants/bars that are just a short walk from the house including Restaurante El Patio and Restaurante Los Almendros. We also enjoyed some lunches in nearby towns. Really enjoyed lunch at Soda Gorabito in Jaco (inexpensive local flair) and La Junta in Domigal.The property manager, Keylor, met us when we arrived and showed us around the property. He also checked in (via text) couple of times during our stay and organised a few activities for us including the ATV rides, coffee experience, guided nature walk at Manuel Antonio National Park and massages for my wife and daughters. All of the activities were great, but my favorite was the coffee experience. It was hosted by a friendly couple (Alex and Hana) from the village, who provided a very interactive coffee tasting (coffee/snacks/culture & history). Alex and Hana also host guaro tastings, which we weren't able to experience. However, they also provide surf lessons which both my daughters took and had a great time. Overall, wonderful vacation. Thank you Julien and Keylor & team. ##### John E. Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Shannon H.

Jul 24, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Excellent Property Stayed at this property for a week for our first time in Costa Rica. The check-in process was smooth. The location is stellar, on top of a steep hill, with a view of the pacific ocean. The pool was ready to go and maintenance free. There is a grocery store (Super Sol) a short walk away, and a restaurant 'El Patio' right next to it. Not that there were any security concerns, but the gate locks up well and the perimeter is walled. There is a resident lizard on site, a great big silent guy who likes to sun on the patio by the pool. I'm sure he eats the bugs. The bunkhouse has its own shower and kichenette and our teens loved it. Tip: buy water at the Super Sol when you come in. I loved the 3 Litre sized pop bottles they had. The proprietors were awesome with everything, and helped us arrange activities in the region. You are a 2 hour drive from San Jose, along good highways. You are 20 minutes out from Jaco, 5 from Del Toro, and 15 from the Town Center. The property management is responsive and fixed all our problems asap. The loft is the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee... ##### Karim S. Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Taylor M.

Plenty of space and attentive support from the management company. The area was a nice staging point for exploring the southern region. As can happen, the power went out one night for a bit, but they had candles already there so we swam in the pool by candlight, which isn't a bad way to spend an evening. ##### Ryan D.

May 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful Property The property is beautiful and offers two separate living spaces who h was very helpful in our case. The quiet town felt very safe and gave convenient access to stores and restaurants. The pool was lovely and the ocean was a short ride (or long walk) away. We did have some issues with power going out periodically and a plumbing failure (and flooding) during a heavy overnight rain storm. The host was extremely responsive in both cases which was much appreciated. I think the plumbing and electric could both use a good update to prevent this in the future. That being said, I would happily return for another stay here as it was truly a beautiful place that allows you to safely and comfortably experience authentic Costa Rica. ##### Matthew A.
