About this property

Charming Beachfront Family Vacation Home

Welcome to Casa 'El Pescadito' in Playas del Coco, Costa Rica!

Enjoy this 5-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom rustic oceanfront property with your family and friends. An outdoor dining area offers breathtaking views and the sound of the waves literally feet away. Bring a book to read in one of the hammocks while you relax on the property or take a walk down the beach. A home with historical significance, Casa El Pescadito was one of the very first built on Coco Beach in the early 1960's. Simple and peaceful, this home offers the chance to de-stress and spend time with loved ones while enjoying what Costa Rica has to offer.

This traditional 5-bedroom Costa Rican family home located steps from the water's edge on the beach in Playas del Coco is the perfect place to relax! The beach is calm and great for kids as the waves are more gentle than at many other beaches on the Pacific side. Much of the property is open air which means you can hear the waves from any room. El Pescadito is located on the northern end of the beach, which is the best part! One of the bedrooms has its own bathroom, and the others have a shared bathroom with the adjoining bedroom. The yard and patio area have a few hammocks to choose from, and there are also lounge chairs provided. The beach is directly in front of the property and is the perfect place to sit with a cocktail and watch the colorful Costa Rican sunsets.

To note before you book, this is a traditional Costa Rican beach home; it's peaceful and rustic, there is no air-conditioning, and many of the indoor areas are open air. Fans are provided and you can comfortably enjoy the property year-round. For bookings after June 2025 the bedrooms in the home will have A/C as we are planning some renovations and improvements, including A/C to help make our guests more comfortable in the hotter months.

There is both an inside and an outside dining area, as well as open air sitting areas, and an outside patio. The house has a gated entrance and an electric fence surrounding the property for added security. There is an area for parking that can fit four cars. Free Wifi (great connection!) and several comfortable workspaces are available.

Things to note: As this is Costa Rica, and the beach house is quite open air, you may encounter some friendly insects or local fauna during your stay
•For those who can’t be bothered with cooking on vacation, we also offer a select menu of family style breakfast, lunch, and dinner options prepared by our resident cook/housekeeper.
•There is a reliable internet connection for anyone who wishes to work remotely.
•There is a daily cleaning service provided by the housekeeper as a courtesy to our guests, this is free of charge. This is an optional service, and if you would prefer to opt out, just let us know.

About the host

Hosted by Arianne Strattan

Host profile image
Former Michigan native transplanted to Costa Rica. Hope you’ll love it as much as I do!

Why they chose this property

Playas del Coco is a superb beach for kids! Peaceful and calm, with generally smaller waves than most Pacific side beaches. ‘El Pescadito’ is located at the quiet northern end of the beach, you will find less hustle and bustle, and more peaceful breezes and tranquility.

What makes this property unique

‘El Pescadito’ was truly one of the first beachfront homes built in Playas del Coco! The original structure remains, although updates have been made. It’s a little piece of Costa Rican history!
