Casa Encima is an ultramodern three-bedroom home in Pacific Heights, a quiet, upscale neighborhood in the lush mountains overlooking Costa Rica’s Pacific Coast. This single-story home with an unbeatable ocean view is only a ten-minute drive from Playa Potrero. It offers a spacious floor plan with high-end local furniture and a beautiful outdoor space with a private swimming pool. The inviting living space features a modern design, showcasing locally crafted furniture, a flat-screen TV, and a panoramic ocean view. The sleek kitchen is perfect for entertaining and is equipped with high-end stone countertops, contemporary cabinets, and GE stainless steel appliances. The kitchen is next to a rectangular, live-edge wooden dining table that comfortably seats six guests. This home offers three bedrooms, each with its own bathroom and an additional powder room near the shared living space. The house can sleep six guests across the three bedrooms. The master bedroom and second bedroom offer a king-sized bed, while the third bedroom has a queen-sized bed. In addition to the stunning home, this 3,230 sq. ft. (300 ㎡) property encompasses a spectacular outdoor space that boasts breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean. The outdoor space offers a private swimming pool, pool loungers, an outdoor dining table and chairs, and a Weber BBQ. It’s the ideal space for spending time poolside, soaking up the sun, or enjoying an alfresco meal in Guanacaste! This secure property features a gated driveway with two parking spots and an additional covered parking area for two vehicles. The home offers high-speed internet, air conditioning, and a washer and dryer. No Pets Policy Please note that this property is not pet-friendly due to house and condominium rules. No exceptions will be made, and emotional support animals are not permitted. If guests arrive at check-in with pets that have not been verified and approved, access to the property will be denied. Playa Potrero 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.
