About this property

Playa Potrero - impressive 9 BR beachfront villa: Casa Taj

Includes Private Chef for two meals per day and Daily Maid Service.
Casa Taj is a stunning Spanish Colonial style beach mansion offering you exquisite architecture inside and out. Grand windows, wrought iron accents, beautiful stone and tile work, rich double-crown moldings, granite, and other fine materials make up the interior of this beautiful retreat. Decorated with meticulous attention to detail in the Spanish Colonial style, this elegant 9-bedroom, 9½-bath beachfront retreat sleeps up to 26 guests in over 8,200-square feet of interior space.

The living room boasts large bay windows which face the generous veranda and overlook a spectacular ocean view. There’s also an inviting, wood-paneled home theater with plush leather seating and a 63-inch wide-screen TV which comes stocked with a selection of movies for every age group, and a library with an extensive selection of books.

With 8,200-square feet of indoor living space, the home features security safes in all bedrooms, an entertainment cinema, lavish dining area, sit up bar, professional chef’s kitchen, substantial living area, and generous hallways. Plenty of space is a key element of the atmosphere and the space will embolden your senses to thoroughly enjoy this mansion by the sea.

Guests will sleep comfortably in 9 bedrooms with 9 full- and 1 half-bathrooms. The home can sleep up to 26 guests with the use of futons. All bedrooms are individually air-conditioned. Experience the unique charm of three "open-air" showers located in the bathrooms of bedrooms Mono, Peces, and Amor. With ceilings reaching 3 meters and no windows above 1.50 meters, these spaces offer a delightful blend of outdoor ambiance and indoor comfort. Above this height, the space is either left empty or covered with a grid/lattice, allowing natural light and ventilation to flow freely. These three enchanting "open-air" showers grace the interiors of one ensuite bathroom on the second floor and two ensuite bathrooms on the third floor, offering an elevated experience of the tropical surroundings.
Please note: In the Cactus Bedroom, there are no windows as they were sealed. This means that natural light cannot enter the room and it relies solely on artificial lighting for brightness,

The eat-in kitchen, with marble-top counters, includes a breakfast bar and is fully equipped with modern appliances. The breakfast nook is also a lovely place to enjoy the views and the available chef can serve delicious local meals Monday through Saturday. Two meals per day are included in your stay, with the cost of food being additional. Daily maid service and more will surpass your expectations for luxury and allow you to relax and enjoy your vacation. Bartender service is available to enjoy cocktails at the pool for an extra fee upon request.

Combined with its classic Spanish Colonial architecture, Casa Taj offers 2000-square feet of covered balconies, which wrap around the house, with plenty of seating. Here you can truly relax in this remarkable space on the Pacific coast and enjoy the colorful evening sunsets. A decadent pool terrace with comfortable lounge chairs adjoin a lagoon-style pool and provides the perfect place to rest, taking in the sun, and enjoying the splendor of Costa Rica. Outdoor amenities really enhance the ambiance, infusing it with fun elements, such as kayaks for your use. There is also the convenience of a new gas grill, and outdoor kitchenette. A night security guard is provided and present during the evening/night hours, outside the house.

The nightly price is for an occupancy based on 2 people per room (in total 18 guests). For each guest above 18 people, there is an additional fee:
$158 a night in high season and holiday weeks | $140 a night in mid-season | $105 a night in low season

PLEASE TAKE IN MIND, THAT THE MAIN GUEST MUST BE 21 OR OLDER TO RENT OUR PROPERTY.

Better than a resort!
We had such a fantastic time at this lovely house in Potrero that my kids still lovingly refer to as “our mansion” - we were treated like royalty for a few days by our masterful chef and lovely cleaning staff, as well as Moises, our bartender. It was very hot when we stayed, and we had a bit of trouble with the AC units, but help came promptly and everything was repaired. I give this property my highest recommendation!

Incredible Week at Casa Taj
Amazing - Book it now! Large home with 3 levels, fit our family of 15 ranging in age from 87 to 14 Months with room to spare. Lots of places to spread out, have your own quiet space, or gather for meals, fun in the bar, pool, balcony and overlooking the ocean. The staff was kind, courteous and the chef made amazing meals we all enjoyed. Great time was had by all, memories that will last a lifetime.

Magical Spring Break
What an unbelievable vacation. Rented Casa Taj with 3 other families for our daughter’s senior spring break. In all we had 18 of us. The pictures do not do the place justice. The property is even more beautiful and spacious the pictures suggest. The pool is wonderful, and the ocean is steps away. However, the house is really not the best part of the place. The staff is what really makes the vacation. Chef Gustavo and his sidekick Moises make 2 unbelievable meals a day. Every morning after breakfast we would plan dinner and breakfast for the next morning. We had a combination of Costa Rican favorites and more typical American fare. All were fabulous. Need cocktail recommendations? Moises can help and make them if you wish. But that’s not all, two maids clean and do laundry daily. Not in the way at all, but if you do see them, they always have a smile. In addition, the grounds and pool deck are cleaned daily. Not that it seems like an unsafe area, but there is even a nighttime security guard. He even pointed out the howler monkey hanging out across the street one night. Book now. You won’t be disappointed.
