The home’s first floor features a breezy open-concept layout with a chic retro design, sky-high ceilings, and floor-to-ceiling windows that offer panoramic ocean views.

The patio features a private swimming pool surrounded by Colombian coraline tile, lounge chairs, and a covered terrace with a teak dining table and barbecue grill. Behind the living room is a chef’s kitchen with a nostalgic retro feel, featuring stainless steel countertops and barstools, wood cabinets, a tile backsplash, and white and teal brick walls. The kitchen has stainless steel appliances, including an oven, microwave, and cooktop with a range hood, and also offers a breakfast bar that seats three. Beside the kitchen is a teak dining table with two benches, situated near a sliding glass door that overlooks the surrounding rainforest and Pacific Ocean.

Before you book, each pet must be verified and approved based on breed and size (max 35 lbs), accompanied by a recent photo. A refundable pet fee of $200 per stay, along with an additional cleaning fee of $50 + 13% per pet, is required to ensure our home remains pristine for all guests. We allow up to two pets per reservation. Pets must be kept on a leash at all times in public areas within the property grounds. Certain properties and complexes may have specific rules and registration requirements. Pets need to be verified at least 24 hours prior to check-in. If guests arrive at check-in with unverified pets, access to the property will be denied. Owners are responsible for their pets' behavior and any damages incurred. Pets should not be left unattended within the property. For any questions or further details about our pet policy, feel free to contact us! Finca La Marcela is a mountainside neighborhood in the hills above Playa Potrero with spectacular views of the oceanscape below. You’ll feel like you can see forever, from the ocean horizon to the panorama of green hillsides. Most homes are securely gated and have their own swimming pools. It’s a bit of an uphill drive, but the privacy is superb and wildlife in these hills is abundant. Offering easy access to three beaches (Potrero, Penca and Prieta), this town combines upscale lodging options with the charm of a traditional Costa Rican town (think central plaza with church, school and soccer field). There are plenty of restaurants, shops and other conveniences, and the downtown area has two mini supers (convenience stores), as well as a commercial plaza with a coffee shop, a hairdresser and other businesses. Some of the liveliest nightlife in the region can be found at Las Brisas Bar, right on the beach, though it’s normally hopping only on Wednesdays (Ladies’ Night). Potrero has several nice housing developments with “Villagio” in the name, popular among Italians and other expats. You can find Italian gelato shops, Costa Rican sodas (small, affordable restaurants) and hotels in a range of prices (Pitaya Lodge, Bahía La Esmeralda, Hotel Isolina, Bahía del Sol). Just to the south of Potrero lie all the attractions of Surfside, and to the north is a beautiful, hilly drive along the ocean, ending at the Mediterranean-style village of Las Catalinas. Potrero is within easy striking distance of several beaches, and it’s a great base to explore the entire region — for a sampler of both the high-end and the humble. Special Places of Costa Rica is committed to protecting our properties and complying with short-term rental regulations, which is why all guests are required to complete an independent verification with our trusted partner, TRUVI, before check-in. You will be contacted via email, text, or app notification with instructions to complete this process. As part of the verification, you will need to choose between paying a refundable security deposit (which includes a non-refundable 2% processing fee) or purchasing a non-refundable damage waiver, which protects you in case of accidental damage during your stay. We strongly recommend the damage waiver, as it provides peace of mind and avoids tying up funds with a deposit. Both the TRUVI verification and your selection of either the deposit or the damage waiver must be completed prior to your arrival. Failure to complete either step may result in being denied access to the property and forfeiting the rental without refund. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
