Villa Catalina #8 has three bedrooms and a bright, inviting open-concept floor plan encompassing the living room, dining room, and kitchen. The living space includes two places for relaxing — a formal sitting room that faces sliding glass doors and windows that overlook the ocean, and a laid-back living room, with a cozy linen couch that can be turned into a sleeper sofa facing a large high-definition TV. The modern kitchen features an island with an induction cooktop, a wrap-around stone countertop, and a breakfast bar that seats four. The kitchen also includes brand-new white cabinets and a pantry, as well as high-end stainless steel appliances, including an oven, microwave, dishwasher, a refrigerator and freezer, and even a wine cooler. There is a long wooden dining table that borders the kitchen and living room with seats for eight guests. The master bedroom features a clean, simple design, with wood furniture and a crisp white comforter on a king-sized bed. It also features a sliding glass door with a small balcony, a flat-screen TV, and a massive walk-in closet. The master bedroom also includes an ensuite bathroom with a double-sink vanity and a walk-in shower with two showerheads and a large window with stunning ocean views. The second bedroom offers a king-sized bed, a wooden armoire, and a shaded balcony with ocean views. There is a bathroom located next door with a walk-in shower. The third bedroom has two single beds that can be pushed together to create a queen-sized bed, a large window with lush views, and an ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower and a rainfall showerhead. Villa Catalina #8 also offers lovely outdoor spaces. The main shaded terrace features an outdoor kitchen with a BBQ grill and a large wooden dining table. The shared deck has a stunning infinity pool and hot tub with panoramic ocean views, as well as pool furniture, showers, and a washroom. It is located above the complex and can be accessed via stairs. This two-story villa offers ground-floor access and an enclosed garage with code-controlled access. It also has a security alarm system, a washer and dryer, and optional maid service. The entire gated community also has 24/7 security for a safe, secure stay in Guanacaste. Pet-friendly policy We welcome your furry friends at our property! 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! 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.
