Welcome to Casa Rector Beach House. This house is located one and a half hours west of San Jose (the Pacific side of the country). The house is approximately seven miles away from Puntarenas, a popular city in Costa Rica. The family-owned house is on a lot of property about two plus acres in size. The house includes six bedrooms: five of which contain their own bathrooms and one which connects. The rooms combined can accommodate twelve. The home is perfect for a group or for multi-families. The bedding and linens are supplied. The top floor of the house included the eating area and a full kitchen, stove, refrigerator, microwave, and utensils. Located on the property you can find six different types of fruit growing and many exotic flowers. The property also has a large, freshwater, ceramic tiled, in ground pool which is lighted by Sam Lighting. I hope you read the comments that were left from past guests because it tells you much about our house
More Details: The pool is 3 ½ feet deep on the shallow end and 6 ½ feet in the deep end. Picnic tables and a barbecue hut are located around the pool. The beach is located at the edge of the property, we consider it our backyard. Once at the beach you can walk several miles in each direction. A gardener/guard is on the property at all times to ensure a clean and safe time. A cook or babysitter can be provided for an extra charge. The way the house is rented: we rent the whole house to the same renter whether it is a group or just a single family. December through April is the prime season.

Overall we enjoyed our stay. The property description and photos were accurate for the listing. The owner was in touch with us shortly after we booked and a few days before check in to ensure we had everything we needed. There was plenty of space for our large group.

March stay
The property was fantastic and precisely as described. The caretakers, Arturo and Maribel, on site were friendly and incredibly helpful. The area itself is not a huge tourist area so you may have to drive to get to those.

Comfortable and pretty views!
We were mostly using as a “base camp” while we played tourist but did spend most of one afternoon at the house and in the pool. Enjoyed a beautiful sunset! Loved the screened in porch to enjoy outside without bugs. The property manager Arturo was incredibly helpful with everything we needed.

Highly Recommended
This was an awesome property. I went with my spouse and adult children(17-22) and their friends. Total of 8 people. The house was very clean and open. The pool was exceptional. The sunsets on the beach were beautiful. The best part was the caretakers(Arturo and Maribel). Arturo was up early to get the pool and backyard set up for us to enjoy for the day. Maribel cooked us an awesome dinner our last night there. They were so nice and helpful the entire time we were there. They almost felt like family. Also the owner was easy to get into contact with when needed. We will definitely stay there again when we go back to Costa Rica!!!!

We had a wonderful stay, and I would highly recommend this house! My communication with the owner ahead of time was outstanding, and the caretakers at the house were wonderful & very helpful. As others say, though, brush up on your Spanish as they do not speak English. Also, bring bug spray!

Wonderful family getaway
My family stayed at the property and had a wonderful time. Arturo and Maribel are the caretakers and are some of the nicest people you could ever meet. They keep the property in fantastic shape and are extremely helpful. I highly recommend hiring Maribel to do the cooking, as she is amazing!!
The pool is great, the beach was just fine for swimming. Make sure to visit the "Monkey House" (casa de los monos) nearby, as that was my families favorite excursion.
Again, I cannot stress enough how wonderful Arturo and Maribel are at hosting and taking care of the guests here. Truly a great family place!!!

Relaxing beach time
Casa Rector was a perfect fit for our group of 14. The pictures do not do it justice. The grounds are beautiful, Arturo does a great job maintaining them. Everyone had enough room to have their own space, but a great common area for meals and down time. And speaking of meals, Maribel's cooking was fabulous. We will miss Casa Rector as we treasure our memories of our time there.
We chose it to have down time at the beach and that is exactly what it was.

Guestbook Comment
Our three couples have just returned from Casa Rector and had a great vacation. The house was clean and comfortable, and very private. The pool is well maintained along with the rest of the grounds by the lovely couple,Arturo and Mirabel,who reside on the property. They are two of the nicest people you could meet and make your stay a delight. There is plenty of room on the property and we found the atmosphere much more to our liking than staying at a hotel. The property is gated and the two dogs, Bronco and Gaby, are well trained and friendly, and are good watch dogs. All of our questions were answered promptly and courteously by the owner before we left for Costa Rica. He was genuinely concerned to make sure our trip was going to be a good one. If you are not the resort kind of person Casa Rector is the place for you.

Beautiful Beachside Property
My husband and i stayed for one week and then our daughters came with their families for the second week. It was a very relaxing vacation, with a lovely pool, and we loved the access to the beach. Our grandchildren were in heaven, running around the spacious property, swimming in the pool, and playing on the beach. This is the place for anyone looking for a beach/pool vacation. Puntarenas was disappointing as a town, but there is good local shopping within walking distance. Marabel and Arturo give five star service, looking after their guests as if they were family. They are the true gems of this property. The house itself could use some updating and the gate to the beach should be made more secure. But all in all, it is a great spot, and we would definitely go again. Richard, the property owner, is splendid at communication and we couldn’t have asked for better or more accomodating hosts.

Amazing hospitality
Our group of two families (4 adults, 7 kids) stayed here for two nights. The rooms are small but sufficient. Each bedroom has a double bed and a single. The pool is wonderful, and the grounds are kept pristine bt the caretaker Arturo, who lives in site with his wife Maribel. They are wonderful hosts. For $30/day, Maribel will prepare lunch and breakfast for your group. She even accompanied us to the market to help us shop for the meals. Arturo took us down to the local fish market, where we scored a deal on some fresh mahi mahi for dinner, which Maribel cooked perfectly. The only downside to the house was the beach behind the back fence. It is not a beach where you can swim. The current is strong and the beach is steeply sloped. However, more appealling beaches are just a short drive away. All in all, we would stay here again!

Amazing Hosts In Puntarenas!
What a wonderful stay! Casa Rector was an excellent choice for our family, my brother's family and my parents. The property was well stocked with everything we needed, including life jackets for our kids. Mirabel and Arturo, the on site caretakers are INCREDIBLE! We hired Mirabel to look after the cleaning and some cooking and it was worth every penny to enjoy our stay. Mirabel is a wonderful cook and always proactively anticipating our needs (towels, ice cream for the kids, etc) Arturo did a wonderful job looking after the pool was always there to help with the gate when we were coming/going with the car. The property was clean and well maintained despite some signs of age, but anything we needed was attended to right away. The pool was excellent. The shallow end is still approx 4 feet deep, so we just had to be extra cautious with the younger kids in our group. We loved going down to the beach to jump around the waves and watch sunsets. Thank you Richard for sharing your beautiful property with us. We had a wonderful stay!

Guestbook Comment
We've just returned from Casa Rector where our family of eight(Oregon, Kentucky, Texas and Georgia) met for the Christmas holidays. We had a wonderfully relaxing time alternating with exploring the area (zip lines, aerial tour of the forest, butterfly and orchid gardens, a fishing trip yielding delicious Dorado) and just hanging out in the pool.
The house and grounds met our needs very nicely and Arturo and Maribel made it perfect. They were very personable and did their jobs in a way that preserved our privacy yet they were always there when we needed them. Their concern for our comfort and safety was apparent in everything they did. Maribel cooked for us most of the time, affording us the opportunity to enjoy some great Tico food and spend extra time with our children. We also enjoyed the presence of Blanco who took on the role as our chief dog and protectorate almost immediately. He was a most willing beach walker and running partner. What a great dog!
Costa Rica, Casa Rector, Arturo and Maribel made our family get together as good as it gets.
I would certainly be willing to answer any email questions about this wonderful place.

Great Pool
We had a wonderful time at the house. The best part about the place was the pool. It was clean, beautiful and right outside your bedroom door! They had pool toys and towels to use.
The listing was quite accurate. The pictures were very helpful. I was impressed with the fact that the house had a crib and a highchair for our kids. The house keeper and cook were very kind and made us feel right at home. We had a large group and the house fit us perfectly. With all the seperate rooms, each couple had their own room for privacy.
The lot was right on the beach, which was beautiful at night. The waves turned up the sand a little but it was still great.
The location was a little difficult to get to places but only because of the traffic around the country.
My only suggestion would be to have a list of local restuarants and good tours. It would be helpful to have a pitcure to send to people for the last turn to the house.
The house was perfect but the location was not ideal for our travel desires.
We had a great time. I would definately tell others to go, escpecially if they have a big group.
Thanks for everything!

Casa Rector was our casa (8 friends) for 10 days of delight. All the images posted on the website turned out to be an accurate picture of what we found when we arrived.
The rooms were clean, the bathrooms roomy, the pool was our savior in a humid climate we are unaccustomed to. The sunsets on the beach were awesome. Tico and Tica (the resident birds) laughed after saying "wake up" to whoever was resting in the hammocks and we laughed with them. Bronco and Gabby (resident dogs) became our friends and protectors from imaginary evils as we dined together in the common area or lounged around the massive yard.
However, the best for me is the two new friends I made: Arturo and Maribel, the caretakers and chef. They made our stay extra special as they foresaw our every need. Although I speak limited Spanish and they speak limited English, it didn't matter. We bonded as Maribel cooked delightful meals and Arturo demonstrated how to harvest the coconuts - in between his ongoing responsibilities of keeping Casa Rector a paradise.
Casa Rector is conveniently located to the zip-line, Rain Forest and SkyWalk adventures, as well as a "small town" experience in Puntarenas or the "touristy" atmosphere of Jaco.
I readily recommend this casa to anyone who wants to partake in a real Costa Rican experience. The owner called when we arrived to make sure we'd made it and again to make sure everything was ok.
I hope to return with my family to introduce them to my new friends.

Family time
This was a great place to use as a base and take off each day to go exploring.
Arturo and Maribel were very gracious and helpful. We had Maribel cook for us several nights and she did our laundry, which was a blessing.
I injured my foot and she went to the pharmacy to get me some numbing solution.
We were there during the rainy season, which we loved. We enjoyed the pool, and loved watching and hearing the waves crash in on the beach. I’m not sure why they preferred that we stay off the beach.
Our room had an issue cooling down and they had someone right out to work on it.
Maribel had fresh fruit cut up for us several mornings, which was a real treat!
The owner of the property was incredible, we corresponded and spoke by phone several times and he reassured me he would make everything right. Which he did, above and beyond. By the way, he doesn’t text!
We were so sorry while we were there that they lost one of their beautiful German shepherds. We couldn’t get the translation straight as to what happened. There was a black lab there also, that we think was named ‘Bacon’. Our grand daughter cried when we left Bacon at the house.
This house was perfect for us, we are not resort people so it didn’t bother us that there was not AC in the common room. If it got too hot, we’d go swimming or go into our rooms.
We loved the geckos, iguanas & squirrels.
Thank you to Rich, Arturo and Maribel for making our family of 11 have such a memorable vacation!

The property is beautiful and well maintained. Arturo was so nice and helpful. He setup our 3 hammocks every morning and then took them down at night.

Cleanliness, privacy, perfection
The communication with the home owner and management is very easy. We were warmly welcomed by the property managers Arturo and Maribel!! The house has the perfect size and layout to accommodate a multiple family group! Each room is spacious, clean, and has a private bathroom. We had a group with over 6 children and theres is plenty of yard for them to play. Will definitely go back in the future!!!
