Sunset Blvd, Beach House. Apartment 2
Rocío helped us super fast even though we made an early booking everything was ready, the place is super clean and you manage to find everything you need to have a good stay. The place we had had a pool table that gave us a super entertaining evening, we also had access to the pool of the complex that has saved us from the strong jacó heat. It will undoubtedly be my first choice on my next visits to Jacó.

Wonderful location in a strategic spot in Herradura. Private gate guarded residential area. Nice, clean, and comfortable apartment fully equipped. A minor issue with hot water in one of the bathrooms was promptly fixed with Lauren's immediate response, and things were fixed in 1-2 hours. We recommend this excellent apartment for a visit to Costa Rica's Central Pacific, and it will become our spot to go whenever a trip to Herradura-Jaco is on our plans

Gringo Getaway - Tejon House
This is one of the nicest Airbnbs I have stayed in. Immaculately maintained gated community with very friendly staff. The host was very responsive, helpful and courteous. The condo is located about a 10 minute walk from a lovely local restaurant called Sabor Jacó, convenience store and fruit and vegetable market. 10 minutes further you arrive in downtown Jacó where there is everything you need. Groceries, restaurants, bars, retail stores and the beach. Downtown is a $3.00 CAD Uber ride. Everything worked perfectly in the condo. Great internet, air conditioning and lots of hot water. Bed was very comfortable and bedroom had blackout blinds. The salt water pool is 25 metres long. Great for laps. Just an overall great place to stay. I highly recommend it.

Lapa House 4 ( Cozy pool-3 bedrooms)
We had an incredible stay here! The house is spacious and a short 10min walk from the beach, with lots to do in the surrounding area. The hosts were proactive, friendly and went out of their way to make us feel at home. Highly recommend!

Casa Lunarena
I rented this airbnb for my parents and they absolutely love it. Everything was exactly as pictured, super clean and they had the best time. Definitely coming back!
