Amazing pool and great concierge.
We stayed for two weeks and it was amazing. The house was spacious and had a washer dryer which was a plus. Shopping was close. Alberto was very attentive and answered any concerns and booked our tours for us. The pool was amazing and we spent many hours in it. It would be advisable to rent a golf cart which made it easier to get around and pick up groceries. Eric was a great driver and knew lots about the area.Take the sunset catamaran tour. We saw dolphins, whales and had fresh fish on the cruise. The howler monkeys came right next to the house in the trees a couple of nights. I would recommend staying at this property.

Amazing Property With Unbeatable Location
You'll love your stay at Casa Howler! It's a quiet area that is a very short walk to the beach. In the morning, you can see monkey's in the trees and the property manager is world class. Alberto and his team are extremely helpful. There are quite a few great restaurants nearby and the house has a great layout for spending quality time with family and friends. 5 stars!

Casa Howler , potential fraude
After booking the house, I immediately called the property management salty mangrove and spoke with one of the owners, Alberto Quevedo, to verify safety in the area and the house. He assured me that the area, neighborhood was safe, and the house had security cameras on 24/7. Unfortunately, as soon as we arrived at the house it was not true and called him immediately, he told me not to worry and repeated the same story. I told him that I was going out for dinner and after we could do the proper check-in and meet in person.
We left and got back to the house around 2 hours later and it had been broken into and all our valuables gone. A side door leading to the laundry room had been kicked in and destroyed. We texted Alberto Quevedo that we were robbed he told us to not call the police and that everything was going to be ok and that he would come by as soon as possible. He arrived over 2 hours later and said there was nothing he could do about it at that moment and that he would handle the situation for us the next morning. When we asked about the cameras, he told us that the router had been stolen as well; so, there was no footage of anyone breaking in or our things being stolen.
I have friends and family in Costa Rica, luckily, they called the police who showed up at 10pm to take our statements and fill out a police report. The manager went to speak with the neighbors as they also had cameras and he came back to tell us that their cameras weren’t working either. Be alert!

Spacious and comfortable
The house was wonderful. Spacious with comfortable furniture. Plenty of room for everyone to gather but also for each to have some private space. The pool was big enough for our group, private and clean. Short walk to the beach and close to groceries and local restaurants. The house is just gorgeous.

Beautiful home in a great location
Casa Howler is a wonderful place. It is very conveniently located at walking distance from the beach and really close to supermarkets and restaurants. The villa itself was clean, with a relaxing view over the pool and the forest. Alberto was really kind, responsive, and attentive, and he made sure we had a pleasant stay. We would love to stay there again!

This was truly an exceptional home. Beautifully appointed and very comfortable with tons of room to spread out. We enjoyed the short walk to the beach for sunsets and dinners in town. Afternoons in the pool watching howler monkeys swing in the trees were amazing. The included concierge service was responsive and ready to help with any of our needs. Highly recommended. We hope to return soon!
