The house was very clean! The neighborhood was busier than expected. It was odd having someone walk by the patio as they were staying in house below. Would have wanted more privacy.

Jungle retreat

I had a great stay. For most of my stay I was a solo female and I felt perfectly safe! It was very quiet and relaxing. It was great to be in the trees and hear the birds and the frogs. There was a mother and son staying in the main house that is behind a fence and they accessed that using a path on the edge of the property. That is the only time you see other; otherwise, it's very private. They were very respectful. You can walk to the beach but you aren't going to carry your surfboard! It's a steep hill. However, I loved walking in the morning - down the hill and then on the flat road that runs along the beach to check out the surf and maybe get a smoothie. I didn't want to leave!

Perfect spot

Our stay at Rustic Retreat exceeded expectations. The house was perfect for our family of 4. More space than the pictures look. The outside space was private and beautiful. The balcony had a great view. The location was perfect. Walking distance to great surf breaks, restaurants, shops and bars. Short drive to the rest of the areas main attractions. Erica and Ryan were fantastic hosts. We would 100 percent stay here again!

Adorable rustic retreat!

Amazing property just as describe as a rustic retreat! Surrounded by beautiful gardens, fresh updated interior, and plenty of privacy. Large outdoor area for much needed relaxation and hanging out. Ample hot water which isn’t normal for these parts of town! The owners are on top of everything especially if even the smallest thing is needed! Great place , great location and great people.

Wonderful beach bungalow!

The house was exactly as described with a perfect location with short walk to beach. Comfy bedrooms with little balcony overlooking sunset and sea were great. Patio area was a nice place to relax and cook out on the grill. Hosts were easy to communicate with and professional. Great stay and wonderful home base in Puntas.

Great little house

This was a great little house with a serene outdoor space. Our hosts Ryan and Erika were very helpful with suggestions for local beaches and restaurants and responsive to all our needs. Since we prepared many of our meals we were very happy with the plates, dishes, pots and pans, cutlery, and sharp knives in the kitchen. The only thing missing was a dish drainer and basic condiments like salt and pepper. The beds were comfy and we enjoyed the view of the ocean from those second floor rooms. The access to the upstairs is via a ladder with broad steps and sturdy railings, but we are all seniors and hauling the suitcases up and down them was a bit of a challenge. Overall, we had a wonderful stay in Rincon at the Rustic Retreat.

Beach cottage

Ryan and Erica were very kind and accommodating with allowing us early check in. The house was very clean and lovely. This is our second visit and we can’t wait to wake up to the ocean view again. We couldn’t imagine this visit being as good as our last years stay but we were overwhelmed with joy once again. Thank you Ryan and Erica :)

Treadmill in the living room

I love the location. The people. The beach. The property manger were extremely helpful. It would be been perfect if there wasn’t a giant treadmill in the middle of the living room. If it is not ok to be I be pictures is probably not ok to leave an unusable treadmill in the living room and rent to your guest.

Rincón, me encanta!

Simply perfect. Tasteful design. Completely clean and well equipped. Fantastic views and beautiful jet tub on lovely patio surrounded by lush, tropical plants. Private yet close walking distance to beach and coffee shops, great corner bar, surf shop, local owned pizza truck. We had a time to remember and can’t wait to go back to this incredible rustic retreat! Big thanks to Erica, Ryan and boys. We totally love Rincon and your charming, unique, funky beach cottage made our visit a dream come true!

Amazing spot

Loved the rustic retreat and Rincón. Very short walk to the beach but a very steep hill is good to know. Loved the outdoor space and tub but watch out for fire ants. Ryan and Erica were super cool and helped whenever needed. I would come back here a million times. Comfy beds. Great kitchen. Ac worked great. Lovely view. Amazing location.

Great and Quiet House!!

We arrived to the destination and parked in the driveway. We finally went to the door and opened it. Once inside we put our bags down and did an inspection. The house is built amazingly. There are no cracks for little bugs to come in, etc. The furniture is nice and comfortable. The kitchen is useable and packed with silverware. The two bedrooms have two AC’s that are powerful and strong and cool the entire house down. There were towels in the bathroom and beach towels downstairs on a table. The house was fully equipped. The house is secluded in a nice environment and quiet. I would 10/10 come again! Thank you Ryan and Erica!

About the host

Hosted by Ryan Martin

Host profile image
I have been coming to Rincon since 1995. I fell in love with this island, it's people and their warm culture. I live on the same property in a separate house below in the valley. Enough privacy, but we are always here if you need anything. It is myself, my wife Erica, our two boys (Dante-10yo and Rise-5yo) and our dog, Shrimp.

We look forward to sharing our piece of paradise with you!

Why they chose this property

This property is special because it is in a quiet area of Rincon, but still close to so much. A true retreat. Come join us :)

What makes this property unique

Away from it all, but just a short ways from beaches, bars/restaurants, gift shops and Rincon nightlife.
