Mariners Point C1 – 3-Bedroom Villa on Bluff Above Playa Hermosa with Private Pool
Why Guests Love It Guests say staying at Mariners Point C1 feels like “living on the edge of the sea” — the bluff-top setting gives sweeping views, while the proximity to the beach path keeps everything within reach. They highlight how the private pool becomes the home’s center of relaxation, the grill space invites memorable group dinners, and the Zindis Hospitality team makes it all effortless.
Mariners Point C1 is situated in the upscale Mariner´s Point community above Playa Hermosa in Guanacaste. You’ll enjoy the feel of hillside retreat, yet you’re just a short walk from the beach path, restaurants, cafés and local amenities. The calm coastline of Playa Hermosa invites swimming, beachfront dining and dreamy sunset strolls. The lively town of Playas del Coco is only minutes away for shopping, tours and evening drinks. And with Liberia International Airport (LIR) roughly 30 minutes from the villa, your arrival and departure are pleasantly simple.
Perched above the Blue-Flag beach of Playa Hermosa, Mariners Point C1 offers a rare combination of spectacular ocean views, privacy, and easy access to the sand. This three-bedroom, three-bathroom villa comfortably accommodates up to 6 guests, making it an ideal choice for families or friends seeking both connection and escape.
The villa’s design maximizes its bluff-top setting: from the living and dining area to the gourmet kitchen, large windows and sliding doors frame the Pacific horizon. Outside, your private pool and terrace capture the breeze and sunsets — whether you’re relaxing with a book, grilling dinner or simply soaking in the panorama.
Inside, each bedroom features luxury linens, generous space and easy access to the terrace or veranda. The master suite enjoys its own ensuite bath, while the second bedroom benefits from an ensuite, and the third shares a bath — all designed for comfort and flexibility. With the team at Zindis Hospitality managing the home, your stay is effortless from arrival to departure.

Awesome place, would stay again. Only negative is the steep walk to beach. But good workout!

The property was clean, comfortable and well equipped for cooking and enjoying the amenities. The hosts cared about the quality of the stay and made sure we had a seamless check in after our flights were delayed a whole day.

We really enjoyed this place. The location is very convenient just up the hill from the beach access. The place is just as listed, clean and nice. The pool is lovely and an amazing view of the beach. Note there is not a hot tub, just an extension to the pool.Just as important, the Zindis team was amazing to work with. Incredibly responsive to any of our questions and helped reserve and pay for all of our excursions. This was very valuable. We'd absolutely rent here again.

Great for families
We stayed for 5 nights and the place was perfect. Great view for the galss of wine at the end of the day. The private pool was great for relaxing and the location was ideal to hit lots of beaches/restaurants. If I had a suggestion, the BBQ could use an upgrade. It was hard to light.

Thanks for staying with us! We will check into the BBQ.
We had an excellent stay in Playa Hermosa. The location of this condo is great for those looking for tranquility and spectacular views. It was immaculate. We enjoyed sitting out on the deck, including when there was great live music at a nearby restaurant on two of the nights of our stay (not audible from inside the condo, so wouldn't have kept us awake). We had an issue with the air conditioner in the primary bedroom, which was addressed very promptly. We loved both the private pool and the heated community pool. The house manager, Milena, was very responsive and helpful. Definitely recommend this condo!
Well equipped house, excellent response to needs, beautiful view!
What a great stay. Clean house. The host/house manager was responsive to our needs above and beyond including last minute AC repair.
The kitchen is so well stocked!!! a cooks dream. We only ate out once on the way to the house and once on the way to the airport. Bring reusable grocery bags! Costa Rica banned plastic/paper disposable bags some time ago. Although the ones you get in the grocery in Costa Rica will step up your reusable bag game wherever you return to :)
My mom, mom's friend, myself and my two kids 5y and 7y stayed. highly recommend for families. (my kids and I slept the king bed together, ample room).
The pool is amazing, bromine too, no chlorine :)
Highly recommend this spot. The ONLY possible downside is if you plan to go the beach everyday, it's a trek down a STEEP hill so driving is advised (esp with small kids). Hermosa Beach FYI: you DO NOT have to pay for parking at the beach, you can pay whatever you want but it is not required.
Our family has stayed at VRBO properties around the globe, and this one is among our favourites. With three beds and three baths, we had ample room for a family of four with two teens. The property could certainly accommodate more as there are good living/relaxation areas to spread out. We loved the covered patio and spent a good amount of time there enjoying the spectacular view over the bay and beach. The sunsets were incredible! The pool is warm and thoroughly enjoyable both day and night. The kitchen was well-equipped, although with many restaurant options nearby, we only made breakfast at home. We appreciated the cooler for day trips, as well as the big pile of pool towels. The property is very secure, and we were grateful for the garage to park the car. The Zindis property manager met us on the first day to orient us, and was available throughout for recommendations and other services. Very helpful!The walk to the beach is short, but involves a steep hill. We ended up driving, given the extra stuff we brought with us. Playa Hermosa is a cute little town with a mini-mart, coffee shops, restaurants, and a few other amenities within a few minutes' drive. A fabulous property, close to the airport, close to other attractions around the coast as well as inland. Thank you!

Thank you so much for this thoughtful and detailed review! We're honored to hear that out of all your VRBO stays around the world, this one is among your favorites, that truly means a lot to us.
It sounds like your family made the most of the space, the views, and the comfort of the home — especially those magical sunsets from the patio! We’re glad you enjoyed a lot.
Thank you as well for your kind words about our staff we're always here to make sure you feel supported during your stay.
We’d love to welcome you back anytime for more pura vida moments in Playa Hermosa! 🌅

The apartment was big and attractively furnished with great beds. We loved the location and the views. Warning to those with disabilities - while the beach is within walking distance there is quite a steep hill. The positive of that is that it got easier every day. We walked down twice a day. The home itself was very nice but in truth we spent most of our time outside on the deck sitting in the shade looking at the ocean. We did almost no cooking - lots of good restaurants within walking distance along the beach but the kitchen seemed to have everything. Our only complaint was that the air conditioners were noisy and made sleeping difficult. I would go back for sure if management told me they were fixed.

We are happy to report that the noisy air conditioner has been resolved. The condensation sump pump was stuck on, and was running constantly. We are sorry that we were not able to correct this during your stay. We look forward to you returning to C1.
Great location, above the quiet Hermosa beach, but also only 10 minute car ride to the busier Play Coco, snorkeled a different beach every day! Different restaurant every night, all wonderful. Have to take the monkey trail to Tamarindo(day light only, SUV only) and visit Ricon (valcano) national park great trails, east of Liberia. Thank you Milena for everything!
We loved the house and the view. The property was amazing, well stocked and well managed. We were switched from our listed unit but the replacement was wonderful
Playa Hermosa is a quiet relaxing area to put your feet up or dig them into the sand in one of many gorgeous beaches in the area. Our 3 bedroom condo was very modern and well equipped and had a well stocked kitchen.
Beds were high quality and very comfortable.
Veranda features morning sun and afternoon shade. Only downside if there was one is your view of the sunset was blocked by the hillside, an easy fix with a 5 minute walk to the beach. Other than that everything was as described and is great condition.
