Pedacito De Cielo, a Beachfront slice of heaven!

Enjoy this gorgeous tropical BEACHFRONT villa with a private pool. This two bedroom, two bathroom home is literally on the sand. Enjoy the sound of waves and watch magnificent sunsets in this peaceful and secluded retreat.

Make sure to also check out our other listings and their reviews. Vrbo #478339, #1502027, #1631038.

If you are looking to spend a few days (or more) away on the beach, enjoying nature, look no further. The house is only one of a handful located on this mile-long section of the 4 kilometer beach. Playa Junquillal is known as a nesting site for the endangered leather back turtles. An estuary, on the other side of the road, is full of wildlife and is ideal for kayaking or paddle boarding.

Enjoy morning walks on the beach, or just relax by the pool. The house has two bedrooms, one with a king bed and the other with a queen. It is perfect for couples, a single family, or two families with small kids. We offer two additional futons for extra sleeping, one in the second bedroom and one in the tv room. The kitchen is small but has everything you need to prepare a romantic dinner or a family meal. Or, if you prefer, we can arrange to have someone cook for you!

The outdoor space is the highlight of the house. It has a large, spanning porch which includes a grand dining table on one end and a relaxing sitting area on the other. A perfect place to read a book, oversee the pool and flower gardens, or watch the spectacular sunsets. There is also a beautiful rancho with a comfortable sitting area , a gas grill, and a hammock.

Situated in a lovely, private setting, this villa is within a short drive of many 5-star restaurants that offer a large variety of delicious dining options. Also worth noting, it is only a half-hour drive from the lively tourist town of Tamarindo, which offers even more delicious restaurants as well as breweries, shops, activities, surfing and much more. It is also only a 1 hour and 15-minute drive from the airport in Liberia.

Exceeds expectations
This is more beautiful than listing can even convey. It's remote and quiet but still easy to get to and driving around is easy. Many reviews mentioned the size of the kitchen but that's no surprise based on photos and the spacious bedrooms and bathrooms are worth the sacrifice of cooking space, there is plenty of room to get a meal ready and the outdoor dinning space is fabulous. As someone very afraid of creepy crawlers, I expected the creatures to be more of an issue in the evening but didn't notice anything. The property is gated and the ability to transition between the beach and the pool with young kids was amazing. Sitting by the pool to read a book was also so relaxing. The beach is quiet and so nice to spend the day at or go for an early morning walk/run and the sunset is like a postcard. Definitely eat at some of the local restaurants, Lochitos and La Ventana del Surfista were two close restaurants I wish we had more time to eat at again. Property management was so helpful and responsive from planning our trip to the time we left the property. Lastly, driving into Tamarindo and Avellanas for some activities was an easy 20-30 minute drive, most roads are dirt roads but not narrow or difficult to navigate. It's been wonderful and I hope to be back!

Relaxing beach in paradise!
The house and property were as described and shown, and the pool was bigger than anticipated! Although the beach is hidden from view from the house (due to the dune elevation), it is only a few steps from the property gate. Spent a great deal of time in the ocean (swimming and boogie boarding) and walking the beach to the estuary and the tide pools. Had to be respectful of the tides and rip currents at the beach. Sunsets on the beach were amazing! Neighbors were very helpful and friendly. Communication with the property managers was flawless and greatly appreciated! Used the charcoal grill a few nights and ate out at local establishments...Rest. Latinos is a must for the patacones! Even during Semana Santa (Holy Week), the beach remained very private with little use from the general public. Definitely enjoyed our 10 days here!

beautiful seclusion in paradise
The place was as advertised: comfortable with a beautiful pool area and a secluded beach just beyond the property. It was secure and the sunsets each night were absolutely stunning. I didn't want to leave. There were some nice restaurants nearby too.

Remote slice of heaven
Great property - stunning sunsets, secluded beach, nice amenities. There are some less exciting realities like limited groceries/stores nearby, unexpected encounters with wildlife in and around the house and some local roads that are not in the best condition for driving. Overall a wonderful place to stay.
