About this property
Beachfront Bliss, Ocean Views, Large Private Terrace & Resort Pool North End
WAKE UP ON JACO BEACH
Imagine waking up to the sound of the Pacific, walking outside with your coffee, and sitting on your own private beachfront terrace while the waves roll onto Jaco Beach.
That is your vacation at The Palms.
Our beautifully furnished 2-bedroom, 2-bath oceanfront condo sits directly on the beach at the peaceful north end of Jaco. The private beachfront terrace is the perfect place for morning coffee, afternoon relaxation and spectacular Pacific sunsets.
Inside, the condo comfortably sleeps up to 5 guests, with a king bed in the oceanfront master bedroom and a king bed plus single bed in the guest bedroom.
You will also enjoy:
• Direct beach access • Private beachfront terrace • Beachfront swimming pool • Access to the beautiful resort pool next door • Resort restaurants, coffee shop and spa just steps away • Fully equipped modern kitchen • In-unit washer and dryer • Beach chairs, beach towels and boogie board • Wi-Fi • 24-hour building security • Easy 10-minute walk or quick taxi ride into downtown Jaco
You get the best of both worlds here: the privacy and comfort of your own beachfront condo with the convenience of resort amenities right next door.
Spend the morning on the beach, enjoy lunch by the pool, explore Jaco in the afternoon and return to your terrace for sunset.
Jaco is famous for surfing, sport fishing, ziplining, horseback riding, eco tours, great restaurants and its lively beach-town atmosphere. And when you are ready to slow down, your own little piece of the Pacific is waiting right outside.
With a 4.98-star guest rating and 51 reviews, we have welcomed guests to our Jaco home for more than 12 years. We take pride in making sure our guests have a comfortable, relaxing and memorable stay.

This was not our first trip to Jaco but the first time bringing our kids. The condo is on the quiet end of town and away from the hustle and bustle but town is only a 10 minute walk or so. The condo was stocked with everything we needed and more. The staff was friendly and using the crocs pool was a nice bonus. This was our favorite unit to stay in and would recommend to any family. Thank you for having us!

Thanks so much! So glad you enjoyed your stay in our home. Pura Vida!
The condo was exactly what we were looking for. It was roomy enough for all and it’s location was perfect. The balcony was large and enjoyed the outdoor couches. We really enjoyed the access to the Crocs Casino Resort. It was a great place to stay.
Fantastic experience from start to finish. Communication between property manager and myself was extremely easy and informative
Pool areas were amazing. The condo was extremely clean and well kept.
Looking forward to a repeat visit.

Thanks Chris! So glad you enjoyed our slice of paradise
We had an awesome stay! The access to the resort pools was super fun and used them every day. It was a short walk to town and restaurants, which made exploring Jaco easy. We will definately come back!

What a great location, and with a very friendly and accommodating staff😎👍
This is such a cute property! Our family loved the location! It had a beautiful view and amazing access to the resort next door. We didn't end up cooking here, so I can't speak for the availability of cooking wear, but cups were there when we needed them. Plenty of towels and comfy bedding! Everyone was VERY friendly and the property manager was quick to respond with any questions we had!
Great place. Met some great people. Location was convenient and close to town. quiet neighborhood for the most part and awesome view of the ocean. The only thing we could think of that is was missing were fans on the patio. Other than that would definitely stay there again.

Loved Palms 204
We could not have been happier with our choice of Palms 204. Donna was great to work with and so were Dream Makers, who we arranged our airport transfer with. The condo in my opinion is one of the best at the Palms. The balcony has a wonderful view of the ocean and since it is a corner unit, you actually get a view to the south as well. It was very clean and the kitchen was equipped with everything we needed. The bedrooms and living room are good sized and everything was in perfect working order. We used the pool(which is the same temperature as the air) every day and it was a great place to relax. Not sure when we are going back to Jaco, but when we do my first call will be to Donna about the availability of 204.

Palms 204 Jaco
Your place has an amazing view. It was very clean and spacious. The girls in the office were very nice. Location and use of the crocs facilities were also nice also. The only real negative was that the safe was not bolted down so we hid our passports,and the hot tubs next door were the same temperature as the pool. The place could also use a potato peeler, for those of us who have to cook all the time due to food allergies. Overall, it was very nice stay and would recommend it to anyone staying in Jaco. I would give it a 4.5 as a rating

Wonderful stays in Condo 204 at the Palms
Really enjoyed this condo in Jaco. Costa Rica Dream Makers were easy to work with and Paola had everything setup in condo for my arrival. I used Marco Bernardo for transportation from/ to San Jose and he was on time, safe driver with excellent service and has the best price I could find. All personnel at the Palms are friendly, helpful & professional.
The condo is clean, spacious and well equipped. The living room has sectional couch with nice size TV with some English stations/music channels. The beds are comfortable in both bedrooms (1 room has a king & single in it while the master bedroom has a TV. The kitchen is spacious with all the utensils you need (bring wine opener) with big refrigerator and seating at kitchen counter. Both bathrooms have spacious showers. (Would recommend bringing extra hand/wash cloths). There is a washer/ dryer. When needed the separate A/C units cool the rooms quickly.
The outdoor balcony is great and has plenty of table seating and a very comfortable couch. The view is fantastic as you are right on the beach & ocean with awesome sunsets.
Beach chairs, ice chest & towels are provided. Lap pool on site.
Having access to Croc's is a plus as they have a nice pool with bar, sports bar, excellent food at their restaurants and gambling all next door to the Palms. They have 2 ATMs.
The Palms is on the quiet end of town but only a nice walk or short cab ride to the middle of town.
The internet at times is in/out but there is a work around Paola will tell you about. There is a safe in master bedroom, but might need the key if can’t reset code. Also you might have to contact the owner of deposit refund if you haven’t received after a week or so. She will respond quickly.
Would highly recommend this condo.

Great stay on Jaco beach.
Condo was great. Location is ideal. Close enough to downtown (10 min walk) to go you want but away from the crowd. Very well furnished and equipped. Everything you need. Beds are super comfortable. Will definitely try to stay here again on next trip to Costa Rica

GREAT Unit!!!!!
This was my first time staying in this unit. The unit is really decorated nicely and very well furnished. I have stayed in several different units in the same complex and this was by far the nicest.
The king bed in the master was very comfortable and the living room furniture was as well.
I will most definitely stay in this unit again.
The ONLY thing I would add is a TV in the second bedroom.....
The staff here is also very helpful.
