Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Los Pargos

We were looking forward a remote location to settle for some months. This was a great sanctuary to be alone and explore the empty beach. The WiFi was very good , even when other local services were unavailable. The neighbour made us delicious food when requested. A great adventure.

We stayed in the rainy season with two families. The unique layout let us all move around after hours and have pretty of privacy. The covered seating area and large sliding and folding doors to the pool made for such an awesome set up in the rain or sun. The pool had plenty of shade to hide from roasting in the sun. Highly recommended!

We enjoyed our stay here. It’s tucked away on a hillside, but Alejandro gave very detailed instructions and videos of how to get there. The place is as pictured. My kids loved the pool and the monkeys that showed up in the morning. Sunsets are beautiful and it’s only a 15 minute drive to Playa Avellana.

We stayed a month at Casa Azul and loved it. We had our 10 year old son with us and we did not have a car so we walked everywhere. It was an adjustment at first with the heat and dusty roads but after a few days it felt fairly easy. We loved that we could walk 2km in with either direction and enjoy the beautiful beaches of Playa Negra and Playa Avellanas and the shops and restaurants in those areas. Or that we could walk just 300m down the road to Playa Lagartillo if we didn’t want to walk that day. Despite what we read beforehand about playa lagartillo, it does have decent places for swimming and enjoying the water. There are spots without rocks on the larger span of the beach where the waves and tide is not too strong so ideal for kids and families. And it’s a very quiet beach with beautiful sunsets. It was very helpful to have the local deliveries of fresh fruit and veggies, German bakery, fish, and chicken and eggs on various days of the week. We would definitely come back again!

If you are looking for a unique Costa Rican experience, this is the place for you. The house backs up to a rainforest, where you will enjoy indoor/outdoor living, encounter Howler monkeys swinging from the trees, birds chirping, the sound of rain falling against the leaves. And yes there were a few critters, but that was to be expected, especially since we visiting during the beginning of the rainy season. The beds are cozy and the house is less than 10 minutes from town, the beach, restaurants and shopping. David was responsive and made great recommendations. Our experience was definitely memorable.

Mark's place has a really nice atmosphere, quiet, far from any kind of noise. It also feels like you have your own beach :D the kitchen was fully equipped. The location to other beaches were convenient by car. Mark was very responsive whenever we contacted him! thanks for everything!

Leonardo was awesome and the place is very nice!

Olga’s place was amazing! Closer to town than we thought. The space and pool were perfect. There were three of us, but you could easily accommodate three couples. Olga checked in on us and made sure we had all of the amenities we needed. Would stay here again!

This is the second year in a row we have stayed here. It is super cute and perfect for my family. The pool is fabulous. The house is about a 25-minute drive to Tamirindo. The location is perfect to keep you out of the hustle and bustle of the touristy town. The howler monkeys hung out in the trees surrounding the property. There are restaurants and small stores close by if you need anything. You will need a car in this area to get around, and note that if you take the "back road," it is a very rough ride but quite the adventure. But if you take the main road through Paraiso, it is super smooth and simple. This is a great place to stay. We have always felt safe and secure. We will be back.

We had an incredible time at this property. The photos do not do it justice. Views for days, comfortable living area, three new king beds and a well-appointed kitchen. Extra bonus of having filtered water and ice in the fridge. The outside area is incredible and you can have shade/sun/pool all day. The A/C works well to cool the house and keep it very comfortable. At this property you are a short drive from playa conchal, Tamarindo and other local beaches (Flamingo, Brasilato). There is a grocery store close by with basics and a larger one a few minutes further, there is a gym and a fruit/veg stand as well. We spent our mornings lounging on the deck and in the pool, our afternoons & evenings exploring and our nights watching a movie or listening to the monkeys on the deck. We saw butterflies, dragonflies, birds and lizards, heard monkeys and watched a tree full of parrots. We drove in the wrong side when we arrived, so be sure to come in the main gate.

Patricia’s home was precisely what our group was looking for in Costa Rica—spacious enough for 9 people (including two couples), private and safe, full of amenities look cooking supplies, and responsive hosts. Patricia and Susan were more responsive than any host I’ve ever stayed with. They messaged us on Airbnb and other apps for ease of communication, and check-in, which was a breeze, included a tour with the property manager. They also connected us with the most trustworthy, affordable, high-quality transportation and tour company. The property was safe, well air conditioned, comfortable, and easily accessible. If our group finds ourselves in Guanacaste again, we’d love to return to Casa Bella Tortuga once more. You made my partner’s birthday and PhD graduation celebrations all the more special. Thank you!

The house is nicer then the pictures! Early check-in was a plus. Secluded, no neighbors. Safe, private parking✅ Nice view✅ Hot water✅ Strong AC✅

Our family loved this airbnb . Very relaxing peaceful location . Especially enjoyed the private outdoor shaded space with hammock and our own pool . Well equipped kitchen , comfortable beds , daily cleaning services . Would recommend without hesitation . Thank you Alvaro !

the most beautiful place i have ever stayed. ready to book it again asap

LIM Villas was a great place to stay, very peaceful and close to an incredible beach. We enjoyed many sunsets and beach walks and also fell in love with BernarDos and their incredible staff<3 Isis and Carlos were super helpful with recommendations and very responsive to any questions or needs we had. We had no issues with directions, everything was very clearly communicated. The layout of this little villa was great and the outdoor shower and pool were a perfect addition! We also spent time in the mornings listening to and watching the howler monkeys frolic in the the big beautiful guanacaste tree. Don't forget your binoculars, there is so much to look at:) We felt very safe and comfortable, would definitely go back. Thank you for everything!

It's a beautiful cabin with lots of character. We enjoyed walks in the morning around the trail. My favorite part was coming back at night and enjoying the hot tub while it rained. There were two gentlemen on staff who were so kind to locate and find sloths in the trees for me, which I would not have spotted without their help. One even Brough binoculars for us.

This place is AMAZING! We came here on our honeymoon and were blown away by the beautiful surroundings and the attentiveness of the hosts. The breakfast provided was so nice, and felt like a feast! Even more enjoyable sitting and eating the meal in their outdoor common area, you truly feel like you’re just sitting on a mountain. It was lovely getting to know the hosts. They provided us with fun recommendations on things to do. We drove down off the mountain one of the days and took surf lessons in Samara! One evening we drove about 15 minutes down the road to eat dinner at Restaurante Teosinte (highly recommend checking that out while you’re in the area). Be sure to pay attention to their specific instructions on how to get there, those were very helpful. Especially having a 4x4 is very necessary. The hosts have created a fantastic stay in the mountains of Costa Rica and I’m so grateful they did and offer it available to be enjoyed by others! 10,000x recommend this place!

We had a great stay here at Emmanuel's place. It is a very peaceful and quite neighborhood. The place looks just like the pictures and has all the amenities necessary for a comfortable stay. I went with my GF and my dog and we definitely will go back. Emmanuel is a great host and he gave us lots of recommendations and was always responsive. Access is for every type of car ( we dont have a 4x4 and didn't found any problem). Don't hesitate to book.

Very kind host, everyone in general, the cleanliness is very good!! I have to go back!

I loved the container house! We went to rest with my partner and two dogs and it was amazing. I loved the pool and the deck too much. And I was fascinated by many details of the house, such as kitchen tiles, bathroom, sliding doors. Beautiful quiet place to enjoy and/or rest. I wanted to stay longer, so we'll definitely be back!

If you want peaceful and remote, this is the place for you! We stayed for 2 nights and had a wonderful, relaxing time. Giselle’s place was less than 5 min from Playa Coco, which was the best beach in the area (we didn’t surf but seemed like everyone that did also went there). There are not a ton of restaurants in the area, but as it’s easy to cook in the full kitchen and enjoy the beautiful views from the Airbnb, I’d recommend bringing your own groceries, striking up a fire and settling in. Watched the birds come in every morning from bed!

Spending my 50th birthday here was magical—truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Krista and Guido go above and beyond to ensure guests feel at home. The house sits atop a mountain with stunning views of the valley and ocean. Each evening, we were serenaded by thousands of birds—pure magic. I spent hours in the hammock listening to nature and unwinding. The bed linens and pillows were exceptional—a rare treat in CR. Thoughtful touches like organic coffee, honey, and pantry staples made cooking a breeze. The pool was spectacular, surrounded by fragrant flowers. We explored Nosara and Samara for beaches and great food. Meeting the hosts and sharing our love for Costa Rica—having moved here a year ago—was a highlight. The on-site waterfall was the cherry on top.

This place is stunning! It's up in the hills and super quiet. This modern home was beautiful and immaculate and had everything we needed. All the glass windows remind you that you are in the jungle and to slow down, what an amazing space. Claudia the property manager is fantastic and responsive. This rental is a treasure and feels like a real treat. Thank you for sharing it 🙏

We will definitely be back. This simple quiet getaway was exactly what we were looking for. One of the better sea container homes we’ve stayed in. A large spacious outdoor area with bbq, great lighting, good parking, and all the tools you need to cook a gourmet meal.
