Casa Navidad

This house is fantastic. We had 4 adult couples staying during our trip and this house was perfect. House/Layout The house is set up for entertainment. The bedrooms are all along one wing of the house with two upstairs and two downstairs. The kitchen, dining room & kitchen are all one open space. This space then has glass doors that open to the patio & pool which help bring the light and outdoor beauty inside. The game room with pool table, bar & large tv is opposite the bedrooms so that those who may want to party a little longer can do so without disturbing those that turn in a little early. Outdoor entertainment The pool is well thought out & had multiple levels. The pickleball court is top notch and the lighting allowed for late night games. Besides the billiard room, there was a great ping pong table in the garage. Large gas grill under the covered patio for cooking out. Beach & Resort One beach is about a 4 minute walk from the house. This beach (Playa Goldinas) is a bit rocky, but great for cooling off, seeing wildlife & catching a beautiful sunset. Saw a few people fishing off shore at this location. Another beach (Playa Longosta) is about a 5 minute drive but was worth the short trip. Traditional sand beach with lounge chairs & a bathroom with shower. The beach club at the JW Marriot resort was also great. The real attraction here is the beachside pool, bar and restaurant for those days when you want someone else to make the drinks/lunch. Appliances/Electronics Didn’t’ come to CR to stay indoors, but sometimes we all need a break from the activities. All the appliances and electronics were premium brands. We are not ‘techies’ but had music playing in all desired locations of the house and had no problems with any of the TVs. The televisions were huge and easy to use. Staff Diana our concierge was wonderful. Gave us a quick tour when we arrived and helped set up sightseeing and transportation. She also had groceries waiting for us when we arrived. Diana also helped arrange two chef prepared dinners, which were fantastic. Additionally, she was quick to respond when we had quick questions about the house, resorts & traveling in Costa Rica. We will definitely come back to Casa Navidad in the future. A great, relaxing experience.

Casa Navidad cannot be fully described with a few brief words. The home and its many amenities make it difficult tk leave. The close proximity to the JW Marriot, the beautiful beach club are just two of the amazing amenities which make the stay so amazing. We enjoyed hours of pickle-ball followed by refreshing dips in the adjacent swimming pool. The media/ game room afforded hours and hours of family fun around the pool table. We took family photos on the beach just a short walk from the house. Diana’s assistance with coordinating everything from excursions to grocery shopping was invaluable and truly made our stay seamless. Thank you for sharing your amazing home with us. We’ve made the most amazing family memories ever. Jon & Heather

We absolutely loved our vacation at Casa Navidad. So many perks! The homeowner was very responsive and helpful. He answered every question so we felt prepared and comfortable before we even arrived. The house manager, Diana, was beyond amazing. She helped plan our excursions and made awesome dinner reservations for us. Diana was very knowledgeable and extremely professional. Then there was the housekeeper Raquel. She made delicious breakfast every morning and tidied up the house each day. So nice to relax on vacation without the hassle of making breakfast and cleaning. The pickleball court and pool table is what sold us on this particular house. My family enjoyed those amenities daily. The decor was beautiful and house extremely clean. We would definitely go back!!

We stayed at Casa Navidad. This was our first time in Costa Rica and it was amazing! The house is stunning from floor to ceiling and everything about it embodied comfort and luxury. No detail was overlooked and the management was there for anything and everything we needed. Everything about Casa Navidad came together to give us the perfect experience that was Costa Rica! This home definitely set the bar high for future vacations!

We stayed at this beautiful home to celebrate my 40th birthday with friends. Between both families we had 4 adults and 5 kids and the home was more than spacious for our group. When we arrived we were met with the house manager who walked us through the property and was available to us for any help or questions we had throughout our stay. The home is absolutely BEAUTIFUL and a very short walk to the beach. We enjoyed sunsets at the beach every night and spent our days at the club only a mile away. With 5 kids it was so nice to have a pickle ball court, basketball and swimming pool to keep the kids entertained outside. We are going back next year with our extended family and can't wait for them to experience it!

Our family truly enjoyed our stay in this tropical paradise! The home is so well done and maintained. The house had everything we could need and every room was amazing, We enjoyed the spaces and the pool and pickle ball court, The supporting team of Diana and Rafa made it easy for us to order food, find restaurants and arrange activities, Rafa hooked us up with surf lessons, guachapelin tours and a sunset cruise. We even played golf at the local club. Raquel was also so great with morning meals and cleaning up for us. Everything was outstanding! Can’t wait to bring my family back!

Even though I know my review will not do this gorgeous home justice, I will try. The house is absolutely stunning - from the beautiful design to the thoughtful layout to the amenities - it is just perfection. The pool table, private pool and pickle ball court were used everyday, along with our daily sunset walks on the beach right from the backyard! The staff was incredible with homemade salsa and guac upon arrival, amazing breakfasts and making sure our rooms were immaculate each day. Nestled in a cute neighborhood, you have everything you need. The beach club offers a great lunch and bar scene, with access to a nicely equipped gym and meeting space, there is even a local market if you run out of wine! The club offers a gorgeous pool and private beach, with surf rentals and an easy walk to Lolas restaurant. We had the absolute best vacation and hope to return back soon. Thank you for such an amazing stay!! Pura Vida!
