More Details: The pool is 3 ½ feet deep on the shallow end and 6 ½ feet in the deep end. Picnic tables and a barbecue hut are located around the pool. The beach is located at the edge of the property, we consider it our backyard. Once at the beach you can walk several miles in each direction. A gardener/guard is on the property at all times to ensure a clean and safe time. A cook or babysitter can be provided for an extra charge. The way the house is rented: we rent the whole house to the same renter whether it is a group or just a single family. December through April is the prime season.

Amazing Hosts In Puntarenas!
What a wonderful stay! Casa Rector was an excellent choice for our family, my brother's family and my parents. The property was well stocked with everything we needed, including life jackets for our kids. Mirabel and Arturo, the on site caretakers are INCREDIBLE! We hired Mirabel to look after the cleaning and some cooking and it was worth every penny to enjoy our stay. Mirabel is a wonderful cook and always proactively anticipating our needs (towels, ice cream for the kids, etc) Arturo did a wonderful job looking after the pool was always there to help with the gate when we were coming/going with the car. The property was clean and well maintained despite some signs of age, but anything we needed was attended to right away. The pool was excellent. The shallow end is still approx 4 feet deep, so we just had to be extra cautious with the younger kids in our group. We loved going down to the beach to jump around the waves and watch sunsets. Thank you Richard for sharing your beautiful property with us. We had a wonderful stay!

Overall we enjoyed our stay. The property description and photos were accurate for the listing. The owner was in touch with us shortly after we booked and a few days before check in to ensure we had everything we needed. There was plenty of space for our large group.

Beautiful view!
We had a wonderful stay, and I would highly recommend this house! My communication with the owner ahead of time was outstanding, and the caretakers at the house were wonderful & very helpful. As others say, though, brush up on your Spanish as they do not speak English. Also, bring bug spray!

This was a great place to use as a base and take off each day to go exploring. Arturo and Maribel were very gracious and helpful. We had Maribel cook for us several nights and she did our laundry, which was a blessing. I injured my foot and she went to the pharmacy to get me some numbing solution. We were there during the rainy season, which we loved. We enjoyed the pool, and loved watching and hearing the waves crash in on the beach. I’m not sure why they preferred that we stay off the beach. Our room had an issue cooling down and they had someone right out to work on it. Maribel had fresh fruit cut up for us several mornings, which was a real treat! The owner of the property was incredible, we corresponded and spoke by phone several times and he reassured me he would make everything right. Which he did, above and beyond. By the way, he doesn’t text! We were so sorry while we were there that they lost one of their beautiful German shepherds. We couldn’t get the translation straight as to what happened. There was a black lab there also, that we think was named ‘Bacon’. Our grand daughter cried when we left Bacon at the house. This house was perfect for us, we are not resort people so it didn’t bother us that there was not AC in the common room. If it got too hot, we’d go swimming or go into our rooms. We loved the geckos, iguanas & squirrels. Thank you to Rich, Arturo and Maribel for making our family of 11 have such a memorable vacation! Ron and Sue
