I love this place. Kai is an incredible host and the property is beautiful. Like so so so pretty. It's the perfect spot to be close to everything but feel like you're in the middle of nowhere. You can walk to the beach. There are other Casitas on the property, but everyone does their own thing and you rarely see the other guests. I will be back again and again and again. It's not often you discover such a total gem with a host that's gracious, informative and a wonderful human.

Beautiful Location & Amazing Host
Last year I taught world geography at our homeschool co-op and one of the class learning objectives was: spark a new love for adventure so you may embark one day on a trip of your lifetime! I, as the teacher, took that to heart and asked my family where they would live to venture to. Costa Rica, of course. My kids love Coyote Peterson and all his ventures to Costa Rica and learning about all the animals and bugs. This place did not disappoint! If you are looking for a place close to an amazing beach, Playa Grande, but not far from the Tamarindo area, this is the place to go. The property is amazing and the home we stayed in was clean. The host, Kai was so helpful and friendly! If the opportunity arises again, we would love to stay there again. Pura Vida! We found this place in the dark in torrential rain. That in itself was an adventure, lol. Side note, when you rent a vehicle in Costa Rica, get a hotspot along with the rental. The WAZE app is also great. It was included in our hotspot. If you don't have a hotspot, it likely can be downloaded to use as your navigation throughout the country. Check out the little fruit stands along the roads. They have great local fruit and the prices are affordable. Highly recommend going in the transition season as well.

Great Property; Great Location; Great Host
Kai's property is beautiful - he has created something special from the surrounding rainforest/jungle. And, with a short walk, you are on Playa Grande, Ventanas Beach, or Playa Carbon. This was our first of four stops during a two-week family vacation with kids ranging from 4 to 17. Everyone had a great time and the property was a great introduction to Costa Rica - with the howler monkeys, iguanas, and other wildlife, and easy access to the ocean. Kai was great to communicate with and always available, but certainly not hovering. He respected our privacy and we got the sense he truly wanted us to enjoy his property - which we did!

Under the Canopy of Trees
We had a truly authentic Costa Rican experience staying at Casa Linda Vista. There were beautiful sunrises and sunsets from this hilltop property. Nature abounds. The best was waking up to the view and the sounds outside our windows . We saw monkeys and birds in the trees, an iguana and even an armadillo. Our host Kai was wonderful and super accommodating. The rooms were very clean and comfortable. We had everything we needed. And very much appreciated was the the extra shower outdoors after walking back from the beach. Local restaurants and a convenience store are also a short walk away.

Beautiful home on lush grounds near the beach
Playa grande is a beautiful spot and a mellow alternative to busy Tamarindo . We had a wonderful stay at Kai’s home which is on two acres of lush grounds overlooking the ocean. We loved the monkeys and iguanas, birds and lizards, the easy walk to the beach and Kai’s wonderful hospitality - anything we needed he was there to help; he had great local recommendations . The house was spacious for the four of us and close to both the beach and restaurants . Would definitely stay again!

Amazing vacation, wonderful property!
You won't regret your stay at this property. Take a quick stroll to the picturesque beach or walk or drive to one of the many local restaurants. We saw lots of wildlife and beautiful one of a kind plants and trees on the property. Every morning the monkeys and morning sun woke us up at exactly 6, which was very nice. Kai is an exceptional host and was always there to help us. A pretty quick drive to Tamarindo for more restaurants and many local artisan/souvenir shops. Thanks again Kai

A super shoutout to Kai for being an amazing host…. Always readily available and helpful! If you need absolutely anything, just ask and Kai will take care of it! The house is perfect! Set away from the hustle and bustle, but close enough to walk to everything. We were greeted each morning with an abundance of life. Monkeys and birds abound!

Tranquil Oasis
Amongst nature with many birds, iguanas, and of course the howler monkeys. Beautiful landscaping the owner, Kai, maintains. Any issues were quickly addressed. While there is no air conditioning the breeze was nice as well as ceiling fans to keep air moving. Short 10 minute walk to Playa Grande beach which is an amazing beach. Lots of great restaurants and microbrewery close by. Tamarindo is a 50 minute walk from Playa Grande beach and short boat ride away ($2). While Tamarindo is busy, Playa Grande is quiet and laid back. We’ve already booked another three weeks next year.

Casa Linda
This place is awesome!! The house and the property are super special and beautiful. We stayed 8 nights in the big house on the hill… with our two kids (age 4,6) The views from the balcony are beautiful, the 360 windows in the bedrooms makes you fill like you’re sleeping in the jungle… very quite and peaceful The house has all basic utilities and appliances and we didn’t felt like anything is missing, we loaded the fridge with food for the week and we cooked most of our meals there. Kai and the team are super nice and responsive, cleaners came in twice a week and shine the house. Playa Grande in general is very quiet, nice and simple, the beach is beautiful and about 10 minutes walk from the house (15 with kids…). Kai, thank you very much for everything, this is definitely a place we’ed love to come back!!

We stayed for 3 nights and it was fantastic. Since we arrived early, Kai checked us in early. Glad we arrived in day time, otherwise it might be tricky to find. Great house, very peaceful place(besides monkeys making noise), beach is close by. If there are no clouds, you can see a beautiful sunset from the balcony...
