"We absolutely fell in love with the Pipe House charm and the warm and friendly owner! Great vibes, beautiful location just steps from the beach, unique lodgings and fun common areas to hang out. We can’t say enough about this gem of a place. We ate dinner down the way at the Swells Cafe Playa Grande. This is a very special place to be! I plan on returning in the future. Hopefully sooner than later. "

No cups or glasses for water. Bathroom the same, bad smell from shower, no water pressure, toilet cistern faulty, had to open tank to get floater valve to work. No cupboard beneath the sink, bordered up, no place to put toiletries, tiles unfinished in shower !!!!"

"I spent two days here and it was unlike any other lodge/hotel I’ve been to before.
The rooms are beautiful, the pool is stunning, the jungle gym is also such an amazing addition but nothing tops the the host himself, he made sure every question was answered and I truly felt at home almost 4000 km from Canada.
Pura vida!!"

"We had a beautiful 3 days at Capitán Suizo! It was clean, comfortable, and the food was delicious! But the most amazing part was definitely the staff - they were attentive, welcoming, and truly went above and beyond. The hotel is super peaceful but an easy walk to all the restaurants, stores and nightlife if that’s what you want. Thank you all for a great stay! "

Villa Wahoo - Luxury 4BR Villa & Pool, Playa Grande Estates, 300m to the Beach
10/10 Excellent
"The place exceeded all our expectations.The house is simply a 10 out of 10: spacious, comfortable, cozy, and designed to make the most of natural light and ventilation. Every corner feels warm and inviting, making our stay truly delightful.As for the area, it couldn’t be better. It’s a peaceful, beautiful, and safe neighborhood, with the advantage of being close to everything you might need, yet far enough to enjoy privacy, quiet, and relaxation.Without a doubt, the perfect blend of comfort and serenity—we absolutely loved it."
TOTAL PRIVACY! NEW 6 BDRM 6BATH VILLA, WALK to BEACH, 44' POOL-Golf Cart-ColdSpa
10/10 Excellent
"This has been one of the best properties I’ve stayed in many years. It had everything you could possibly need. There was plenty of space for everyone in our group of 11 adults in their late 20s. We hired the cook that made us breakfast two days and it was delicious. Something that was very nice to have were the golf cart, surf boards, and beach umbrellas and chairs.We will definitely come back to this property!!! "
"Jacob (host) was phenomenal. Very responsive on whatsapp to all our questions before and during our stay. He gave us excellent recommendations for beaches (highly recommend Puerto Viejo/Playa Conchal, Playa Real, and Playa Flamingo) in addition to Playa Grande which is a 10 minute walk away. The house is basic, but excellent for sleeping and minimal cooking.As others have said, the road to the house is bumpy and steep, but it's totally fine to drive it with a regular sedan, just go slowly. I would definitely stay here again!"
