Vacation rentals in Rio Claro

A wonderful quiet place , the beachfront IS great and so ist the beach. You can walk a long time and you meet nearly nobody. The apartment itself is well equipped and the bathroom has all one needs.

It was a really great location. Didn’t realize how many people would be on the property, so privacy was an issue at times (people looking in our windows). Overall though we had a fantastic time. Loved the beach and saw lots of wildlife!

Great place, clean, modern, close to great surf breaks

Perfect stay, very comfortable place in nature with amazing plant variety, it’s an incredible view! Katie is an awesome host. Carlos is very helpful also, I made a return visit. Great location with bus stop, restaurant and stores all very close by.

Dulce Olas is in a beautiful location with wildlife and greenery all around; we saw so many birds just from our veranda - and capuchin monkeys. It’s a few minutes’ walk to a gorgeous and very quiet beach, where you’ll see and hear wildlife including scarlet macaws, pelicans and lots of little crabs. The studio apartment itself is very spacious and airy, and everything is well designed and made of great-quality materials. The beds are firm and comfortable. The very best thing about it is the veranda, which has lots of comfortable seating, is shady and catches a sea breeze even on hot days. Lucian was kind enough to drive us to the head of a trail into the rainforest and recommend a route for a walk. Do explore the rainforest; we saw howler monkeys, peccaries and many birds and butterflies. Lucian was always available and responsive but we also always felt that we had our privacy. I set my heart on staying here as soon as I saw it on Airbnb, and it didn’t disappoint!

Review for Airbnb (in English): The accommodation is in a fantastic location for anyone looking to disconnect, explore the area, and observe exotic wildlife. On the property alone, we saw monkeys, macaws, tubercle hokkos, wild pigs, a basilisk lizard, giant butterflies, a hummingbird, leafcutter ants, and even a rhinoceros beetle. In the surrounding area, there’s even more to discover, like toucans. The house is functional and well-equipped— everything we needed was provided. One surprise was the nocturnal raids by raccoons, which we hadn’t anticipated. After we blocked the cabinet and fridge with chairs, they left us alone. In the end, it’s a funny story we’ll laugh about for years! We had a wonderful time in this little paradise and would highly recommend it to nature lovers.

This place is a hidden gem. Not only is the house beautiful and well taken care of, but you are within walking distance to fun waves for all abilities. If that wasn't enough Brais, Geraldine, and their kids are the most amazing hosts! They rented us boards, made us bread, gave local recommendations, and their kids played lots with our son. We are so lucky we found their place, I can't say enough good things about it. Thank you for everything we can't wait to come back again.

Beautiful beach front property on a semi secluded beach ideal for body surfing or boogie boarding. Easy walking distance to nice restaurants and small grocery shops. Nothing better than following asleep to the sound of waves!

This was my 8th visit to Pavones and by far my favorite accommodations. I can't say enough good things from the incredible hostess to the paradise like beach bungalow in a peaceful, tranquil lush setting steps to the beach down a little magical feeling road. Most of all the energy of the bungalow is so relaxing and a place to get away from it all. I will most definitely return again and again and again:) I can't wait!
