Casa El Coco Playa Marbella · Quiet Jungle Getaway · with AC and Shared Pool
Casa El Coco – Quiet Jungle Guest House with AC in Playa Marbella with Shared Pool
Centrally located between Marbella’s beach (0.5 miles / 10 min walk) and the town center (0.6 miles / 12 min walk), Casa El Coco is set back from the main beach road, tucked away on a small private lane surrounded by Guanacaste trees. Here you’ll enjoy both convenience and tranquility, with monkeys, tropical birds, and the sound of the ocean at night.
Casa El Coco is part of the Casas Guanacaste property, which includes three guest houses in total plus the owners’ home. My wife Maria, who is Costa Rican and from Marbella, our son Enzo, and I (Cedric, from France) live at the back of the 1.25-acre property and will be happy to assist you with anything you may need.
This private furnished house is designed for up to four guests and features:
· A spacious front deck (390 ft² / 36 m²) and back deck (240 ft² / 22 m²)
· A living room with a queen-size sofa bed and an open kitchen (240 ft² / 22 m²)
· One bedroom with air conditioning, featuring a queen-size bed (140 ft² / 13 m²)
· A bathroom (60 ft² / 5.5 m²) and hallway (21 ft² / 2 m²)
· A large covered parking area (410 ft² / 38 m²)
· A private garden planted with fruit trees and ornamental plants
For stays of two weeks or longer, we offer a complimentary laundry service for all bed linens and towels.
Guests also enjoy access to shared garden amenities, including a skate bowl and two swimming pools: a small kids’ pool (6.5 ft x 6.5 ft, 2.5 ft deep) and a larger pool (10 ft x 20 ft, 4.5 ft deep). Each guest house has its own covered parking and garden space.
To make your stay even more special, we offer the following services at an additional cost and with prior reservation:
• Taxi service and transfers (local and to LIR and SJO airports).
• Turtle-watching tours during nesting season at the Ostional Wildlife Refuge.
• Surf lessons for beginners and intermediate levels.
• Skateboarding lessons in our private bowl, with an instructor.
• Laundry service for guests’ personal clothing.
All services are subject to availability. Once your booking is confirmed, we will be happy to share more details.
We live on site and will be happy to assist you in English, Spanish, or French. We look forward to welcoming you to Casa El Coco!

Casa el Coco
Casa el Coco is one of four separate houses each fairly privately situated on a beautiful property in Marbella, near Playa Frijolar. It offered everything we needed during our one night stay. We did not meet Maria, but Cedric came to give us a warm welcome just after our arrival, including inviting us to enjoy limes and mandarins from the trees in the organic garden on the property. We had a rental car and drove to the playa, along which it is easy to pull in off the road and park. The playa is easily walkable from Casa el Coco, and there is a great restaurant, the Tiki Hut just down the road as well. A great, secluded location to visit the Pacific Coast on the Guanacaste Peninsula.
