Great multifamily spring break

We had a great stay with two families for spring break. Property was good size for our group, well maintained, in an amazing location with backyard abutting the beach. Service throughout the week and excellent communication from the team. Loved it!

Magical Vacation in Costa Rica

Everything about this house is perfect. Wonderful space for multiple generations to gather plus quiet bedrooms when sleep is needed. The ladies who take care of the house and cook are the best! We had three generations of family and everyone enjoyed this beautiful location and all of the amenities.

Absolutely perfect

This house is amazing! Plenty of space for our group of 14! The beach is beautiful. Leanna, the house manager was so helpful - always in communication and was there any time we needed anything. Chef Kimberly cooked a wonderful dinner for us and had the kitchen stocked for our arrival. We loved everything about our experience at the Casa Mirage!!

MOST AMAZING HOME and LOCATION and STAFF

Our family just left yesterday from one of the best family vacations we have ever been on. And by far the best vrbo for families we have ever rented. The location was amazing. So private and secluded. The walks on the beach in the mornings and at sunset were incredible. The ease of having a baby at this home who could nap while the baby monitor reached outside and the big kids could be in the ocean boogie boarding was perfect. And there were a couple restaurants within walking distance! And the staff, oh my gosh they were incredible! Ania the housekeeper was so sweet and kept everything in perfect condition. My kids loved her too and she even gave them a small stuffed animal to say remember Costa Rica:)! And Elibet was so quick to send someone to fix a little problem with the mini split in our room. And Felix the night guard kept us feeling so safe as he watched the property. And then Kimberly came and cooked a couple meals for us which were outstanding!!! We can’t wait to return!!!

Literal paradise

Casa Mirage is literal paradise in Costa Rica. We stayed here with three families in total. The beach is pristine, waves are perfect every time of the day and it's so secluded and private. The bedrooms were nice and the en suite bathrooms made it so easy for a large group. We had Kimberly good every dinner and a few breakfasts while we were there and they were delicious. Highly recommend if you have kids or don't want to bother going out. The playa grande area is very very small. The super market is very tiny -- if you can stop near the airport at the bigger ones you'll find a larger variety for cheaper. If you're looking for nightlife this isn't for you. But if you want quiet like it seems you can't find anywhere in the world right now this is for you! Ania was so sweet cleaning up after us and gave us fresh beach towels in the morning. She even brought out a large bag of sand toys for the littles. We've been at beaches all over the world and it is so rare to find one where some can surf, the teens and other adults can boogie board and the little kids can safely jump in the waves. This was playa grande.

Family Vacation

The house is exactly as it appears in the photos. The staff is wonderful - especially Kimberly. Property manager and Kimberly were very responsive to any questions we had during our weeklong stay. The house is located on a very quiet part of the Playa Grande beach, which we loved! It was close to enough to enjoy Tamarindo when we wanted to go shopping or some nightlife. It was truly a wonderful vacation - definitely recommend!

Playa Grande Paradise

This is the second time I have stayed at this home and it does not disappoint. It has it all. We had Kimberly prepare all of our meals and the food was amazing. Hopefully we will make it back to this house again some day. It works great for a big group or family with kids. Thanks for an amazing vacation.

Paradise

My family had the most wonderful stay at Casa Mirage! The property was large and secured with several security guards. We had Kimberly shop for groceries and cook 6 meals for us and it was one the best parts of our trip.. enjoying quality meals together. We had surf lessons at the house and massages. You can’t find a more relaxing place to unwind and enjoy nature. Bring cash for additional expenses you add to your stay at the house. Pura Vida!

Lovely Stay in an Amazing Spot

We loved our five nights at Casa Mirage on Playa Grande. The location was unbelievable, the house was beautiful and the staff were lovely. We had Kimberly cook us three meals, and they were all delicious! The house was perfect for our two families and we enjoyed every sunset and evening starry sky. We'd return there in a heartbeat!

Heavenly Spot

We can’t say enough great things about our stay here, it was incredible! Beautiful beach right at the front yard, plung pool to cool down, spacious house for all the family, and loved all the staff that worked at the property as well as Leanne for fantastic communication. Good restaurants and night market down the road but overall a very chill area. Would highly recommend this place.

Luxury and Comfort Costa Rican Style

Our group of 3 couples was totally excited and thrilled as we toured our home for the week! As trip planner, my husband and I were given the master bedroom, but all the bedrooms were lovely. We appreciated the staff that was there to ensure our comfort and security. No worries, just beauty and relaxation for the entire week!

Great Place to Stay in Playa Grande

We had a great stay at Casa Mirage. The travel from USA to LIR was easy. Everyone we encountered was so incredibly genuine with their hospitality and kindness. The house was great. The location was awesome. Tamarindo is nearby for hustle and bustle if you want it or just kick back and relax and this beautiful location. Epic surf everyday. Julie was a great host and answered all my questions promptly. We hope to come again soon.

Splendor in Costa Rica

We celebrated 3 graduates on our stay at Casa Mirage. Some were new to Costa Rica so it was fun to introduce them to such a wonderful slice of the world in a house so accommodating. Bedrooms were comfortable, kitchen spacious and efficient and best of all just steps away from the beach. We rented surf and boogie boards for the week. Some of our group took excursions snorkeling, canoeing and visiting a wildlife preserve. Several trips into Tamarindo rounded out the stay. It was lovely and we would not hesitate to stay there again.

Fanatastic Casa and Location

Casa Mirage fit our needs for 10 people really well. The layout was perfect for the old adults and the young adults as far as sleeping arrangements with the bedrooms provided. The only problem we had was the 1st bedroom on the left as you entered the courtyard had a really bad cigarette and smoke odor. We had to air it out and spray it with air freshener every day so the party using it could sleep at night. Other than that it was an enjoyable experience. Thanks Tom Kaley

Guestbook Comment

Thanks for everything. It was a great trip. We are already talking about coming back next year, maybe in March. Playa Grande has come a long way since we were last there, 2 years ago. We were able to alternate between Kike's, Rip Jack and the Sushi Bar, so we only went into Tamarindo once for dinner. Corynne was a great help. She essentially acts as a concierge and makes things infinitely more enjoyable. Also, the weather was the best of the three times we've been down. The only day it rained in Playa Grande was the day we went to Rincon de la Vieja, where the weather was good.

Paradise

Beautiful location, Property, and people. My family had the best time. The house is amazing. The location right on the beach was perfect. The people who cleaned, cooked, and watched over the house our amazing people. I actually forgot my family’s passports in the bedroom safe when I drove to the airport to fly home. In a panic I called Leeana to ask for help. She arranged for Kimberly, the cook, to retrieve the passports and drive them to the airport. We made it on the plain just before the doors closed. Leeana and Kimberly didn’t have to do this for my family after we had checked out of the house. But the did with a smile because they are wonderful people!! Hope life gives my the opportunity to return to this beautiful place again.
