Wedding Getaway

We rented Hermosa House for a destination wedding with our dearest friends and family members. Julie and her crew made it the perfect wedding and mini getaway for our guests! Everyone is still talking about how amazing their experience at Hermosa House was and can’t wait to go back! It was the most relaxing and stress free wedding weekend. They took care of everything from excursions to food when needed.The staff was knowledgeable about the local restaurants, events and all smiles and friendliness. Walks on the beach in the mornings and evenings were a highlight, as well as lounging around the pool and walking on the beach to local restaurants. This is a must stay, especially if you are planning an event.

Incredible house in an incredible place!

11 of us rented the house for my bachelor party and it was absolutely incredible. Would recommend to anyone planning a large group trip as the house, the staff, and the location were second to none!

Perfect setting

The setting is stunning! Watching the surfers was fun. The only issue we had was an unrepaired air conditioner unit in one of the rooms. Definitely would stay there again.

Great location!

Pool and beach were wonderful! The common kitchen could use a little deep cleaning. Beds were hard and rooms could use some TLC.

Excellent and spacious

Our family enjoyed our stay. Plenty of space for larger gatherings. The third floor has a nice kitchen layout where we able to spend lots of time together. We enjoyed massages and had a yoga instructor come to the home. What a lovely stay. Thank you.

Best Bach Vacation!

We booked the Hermosa Beach House a combined bachelor/bachelorette party (20 adults), and we were absolutely blown away. Julie and her staff were so accommodating and friendly and the property was even more stunning in person! We even had a few last minute requests that Julie handled with ease, and we couldn’t have been more grateful. Our stay was so special, we’d all come back in a heart beat! Thank you Julie!!!

AMAZING!!!

Our group just stayed 9 nights at the Hermosa Beach House. Julie was beyond helpful dealing with everyone’s questions and helping us book our excursions/transportation/chef. The house crew were so nice and go above and beyond. The grounds were always well maintained. We saw a turtle laying eggs the first night and a hatchling the last night. We will definitely be back to HBH!

10/10 Perfection

We had an incredible time at this fantastic beach house! The cleanliness was top-notch, and the comfortable sheets and pillows made our stay comfortable. Being just steps away from the beach and a short stroll to a beach bar with fresh ceviche was a dream. The sense of safety with someone always on the property was reassuring, including overnights. Julie, our host, was simply amazing, catering to all our needs and ensuring our trip was flawless. Our group hasn't stopped raving about this vacation—it was truly the best! Highly recommend this place for an unforgettable vacation.

Paradise on the beach

Right on the beach, large pool, comfortable rooms, dedicated staff - what more could you want. Meals can be optionally prepared by the staff (they have a standard fee) - or you can go out to Jaco or area restaurants - lots of options. We did both & it worked great. Staff is very flexible regarding meal hours/days - they accommodated a very early breakfast when we needed. Can't thank them enough.

Oceanfront resort style VRBO - Pura Vida living!

The Hermosa Beach House was the perfect place for our family to celebrate our mom’s birthday. From the moment that we booked with Julie, we felt like we were in good hands, and boy did that end up being an understatement! She was always available to answer our questions, arrange activities for us from yoga, massages, horseback, riding on the beach, a monkey tour, the day at Manuel, Antonio National Park, a hike, a special birthday dinner, fire show, and incredible homemade fresh meals enjoyed outdoors, looking at the ocean. This is a wonderful destination for a large group who wants a clean spacious house with lots of outdoor living with spectacular scenery and amazing sunsets. If you are looking to experience a laid back, casual, local surf town and get a more authentic experience then you would get at a resort, then is the place to go. We will definitely be back!

Magical stay

We were so grateful to stay at Hermosa Beach House. The property is truly picturesque. Our family of 20 (ages 3-75) spent most of the time at the common area around the pool. Pool has a large shallow area for little ones, plenty of space for big kids and adults. Picnic tables and kitchen by pool make it easy to prepare and serve meals to a large crowd and enjoy the view. We used a chef several times and we’re very pleased with the meals. The hotel staff was so kind and kept the place spotless. Special thanks to Hayley for all her help fielding questions and securing transportation and excursions. Several delicious restaurants within walking distance. Beach area has amazing sand and surf but not safe for littles due to rip tide and caliber of waves. Overall lovely stay. We plan on returning again soon!

Family reunion

We had a group of 20 people staying at Hermosa Beach House. Julie and her staff were absolutely amazing…helping us with five separate transports to and from the airport along with making some amazingly delicious meals. Each staff member was accommodating and gracious. Her son Jason helped organize numerous tours and activities, and for a group of our size…trying to get everyone to figure out a plan was no easy task. Each activity arranged was special and memorable. The entire stay was a dream. The proximity to the ocean trumps all else. While it is not a swimming beach, watching the waves and surfers made up for that. The pool was kept pristinely clean everyday. The outdoor seating was perfect for 20 and very desirable to hang around. It was a trip none of us will forget. Thank you to Julie, Jason, Juan, Kyler, Willie, Wilbur and everyone else who made us all feel safe, welcome and special!

40th Birthday in Jaco

Words can not describe the care and thoughtfulness we received from Julie and her staff! This was the trip of a lifetime for most of our guests! From the very beginning of booking Julie was very present and attentive to us and was constantly checking in to see if we had any questions or special requests. Not only was she a wealth of information but her staff was completely on the same page. Shout out to Haley and Ivan for dealing with our groups craziness and never batting an eye! We are a fun group but not the easiest at times. I would stay with Julie and her staff for ANY large event you have or just for fun. You will receive 5 STAR service at Playa Hermosa Hotel. Sending Love to Julie and the staff <3

50th Birthday Celebration Trip

I booked this property to celebrate my 50th birthday with friends & family and we were not disappointed! The property is about 2hrs away from SJO Airport so prepare for the journey but it’s all worth it! The sunset alone is worth the drive! The property is nestled right on the black sand beach just outside of Jaco. The staff and owner are extremely helpful with all your needs; from decorating for your theme parties to washing your clothes after the ATV ride! Julie was so helpful setting up transportation for us no matter what we wanted or where we went. The only drawback was all the rooms aren’t technically under one roof. All except the top floor for have external doors to enter from the outside. Each room as at least 2 beds and most have fridges and microwaves. Each room has its own bathroom which was great! The top floor is a separate 3bdrm apt with living room, kitchen and dining area. No biggie for us. We can’t wait to go back! Thank you Julie for helping make my 50th birthday the best one yet!

A Blissful vacation at The Hermosa Beach House

Our stay at The Hermosa Beach House in Playa Hermosa, Costa Rica, was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we arrived, the warmth and hospitality of the house host and staff set the tone for a truly memorable experience. What truly elevated our stay was the exceptional service provided by the dedicated staff. The house host, in particular, went above and beyond to ensure our every need was met. From seamless check-in to personalized recommendations for local attractions, her attention to detail was impeccable. We also opted for the meal options, which added so much ease to our trip. The food was fresh and delicious. Moreover, Julie and her staff effortlessly handled arrangements for excursions, taxis and airport transfers, making our stay stress-free and enjoyable. Their local knowledge and connections allowed us to explore Playa Hermosa and its surroundings with ease, creating a well-rounded and fulfilling experience. In conclusion, Hermosa Beach House is not just a place to stay; it's a destination that promises relaxation and unparalleled hospitality. Whether you seek a family vacation, or a retreat with friends, this hidden gem offers an unforgettable escape. Our heartfelt thanks to Julie and the wonderful staff for making our stay truly exceptional. We can't wait to return!

Pictures don't do it justice

Julie was an amazing hostess including her family! She helped with everything she could, always readily available for assistance and quite honestly went above and beyond on numerous occasions. The HBH staff were helpful and polite. By the end of the week it felt like family. We opted to have ol2 of our daily meals prepared for a no nonsense vacation and every meal was outstanding Plenty of options for people and even took into account specific allergies and remembered it as well! I am supposed to go to aruba next year but I'm ready to go back to Costa Rica! Jaco is a distance from volcanoes and such but julie arranged transfers (edgar) was an amazing driver for numerous points of our trip! Glvery informative, kind and funny..... staff would clean rooms and do laundry whenever we requested but could be done daily just explain your needs when you get there. You won't find a better view than this house, right on the beach with beautiful pool. You'll spend Ostrowski of your time near tue pool though. If you have questions message julie on vrbo and you'll have response quickly. She makes planning a vacation for a large group a whole lot easier!

Beautiful Property, Excellent Service

Communication was great! They arranged excursions and transportation for my group of 20 for a business retreat. The staff was extremely helpful and very accommodating. Even when we had an issue, they immediately corrected it and went above and beyond to make it right. Beach and property are great. There were lots of common areas to hang out in or have meetings.

Wonderful Time

Being it was a former hotel I was a little unsure how it would be but must say the place was even more beautiful than the pictures showed. And that everyone had their own room and bathroom when we were all getting ready to go out at one time was perfect. Host Julie was great in answering all our questions before and during our booking. She helped us with all of our transportation needs to and from the airport and anytime we were headed out and was great help in booking excursions. Was really impressed with her staff as there was always someone there 24 hours a day to help with any of our needs. They were all very friendly and welcoming. We were a family of 25 spread out from infants to old adults and there was plenty of space for all of us to be there together. I would highly recommend this place for your group get together.

Dream Come True

We worked with Julie and her amazing team at Hermosa Beach House to host friends and family for an 11 night stay. Every detail far exceeded my high expectations. From communication, to planning excursions for our guests, to onsite meals and celebrations, this was beyond perfect for our special occasion. There were between 18-21 of us onsite at all times, and everyone had their own beautiful casita to call home as well as the comfortable shared spaces to create lifetime memories together. The beach is incredible, the culture is invigorating, and the people feel like family. Look no further and make HBH your Costa Rican destination!
