About this property

This is a 2nd floor balcony condo located in Cocomarindo 1/2 mile from downtown Coco on the road to Ocotal with giant near full wall mirrors in the living room and master bedroom. All rooms have separate air conditioning system and ceiling fans. There are screens on all of the windows. No one is above you to make noise walking around or sliding chairs in the middle of the night. No one walking by your door gawking inside your condo since you will be one flight up on a balcony overlooking the pool. Two bicycles with locks are included so you have transportation to and from town for grocery shopping. Two private lounges for use in the pool area so you are not sharing public greasy lounges. Beach towels are included as well as 3 fishing poles and tons of hooks, lures, and accessories, plus fins and masks for snorkeling, air mattresses for pool, frisbees, a coffee maker, rice maker, blender, coffee bean grinder for fresh coffee, security safe for storing valuables, all included. This is only condo with such amenities right in front of the largest pool in the area. You have everything you need here at your fingertips.

Master bedroom has a queen bed with memory foam top. Lamp stands and lamps are on either side of the bed. There are separate ceiling fans and air conditioning units in the master bedroom, guest room which has two twin beds, and main living area.

The balcony has 4 chairs, a table, and small circular table for guests. Upstairs balconies are substantially larger than downstairs units that don't have the privacy with people walking by, and the greater likelihood of something you may not want entering your dwelling (occasional iguana, visiting cat, or insects).

The beach is physically just a block away although the walk there is circular amounting to a couple blocks walk.

Grocery stores and restaurants are all within a mile and easy to get to by bicycle or walking. Taxi is only $2 to town.

Cocomarindo condo is a gated community with 24 hour security and guards at the entrance screening all visitors entering the complex.

Nice, secure space. The beds are great and everyone slept well. The property is really nicely maintained and Maria was awesome at providing support when needed. This was our first trip to CR so Cocomarindo was a great entry place to stay. The residents of Playas del Coco are great as well. Highly recommend coordinating trips through FranktheTank on Facebook. We did LaLeona Falls and a fishing/snorkel trip through him. Also, an ATV ride with CocoLoco was so fun.

Nice Location

The location was very nice and the pool as well. We found the couch (terrible) and beds to be very uncomfortable and we did not have a place to sit and relax from the sun. There property rules were a bit excessive and had I seen them prior would likely have booked elsewhere. The people here are lovely and the security was amazing - we liked her so much! Overall was a nice stay but the room lacked any comfort so was difficult to enjoy the property.

Wonderful property, exactly as described/depicted. A few ants, nothing to get excited over. Comfortable beds. Clean and well maintained. Great property and pool area.

Hidden condo oasis

Didn't quite know what we were getting in for, but hidden behind the well-guarded gates is a magical Disney-like oasis of fun loving foreigners from all stretched of the world! Super close to the beach, we rented a bicycle for 2 from in town, and used the one that came with the place, to pedal over to the beach, or eat at the local soda right there on the beach. Also peddled over to playa Ocotal, which is also magical. Took a taxi to playa Hermosa to gather tiny shells, as well as to the Congo trails animal rescue(only$10/ person). Staying here you experience Playa del Coco as an interesting blend of the "haves" and "have nots"

This was a nice place for us to stay. The amenities were really great for us and we used the bikes a lot to get into town and to the beach. It was a little further to town that we expected but with the bikes, it was fine. Overall, good stay!

About the host

Hosted by Stan Groman

I have been coming to Costa Rica since 1965 when I was in college. In 2004 I decided to purchase a upper condo in the newest development in planning in Coco at the time, Cocomarindo. It took years to complete but was finally finished in 2008. I speak Spanish and welcome guests from anywhere.

Why they chose this property

This gated complex is about as close to the beach as you can get and own property. The state owns the first few hundred meters. Being an upper unit in the complex, it is more quiet, private, and has a prettier view from the balcony. It is the only unit offering the amenities we do: near full wall mirrors in the living room and master bedroom. Not caring to smell the odors of foods cooking we put in vents that exit to the exterior in the kitchen and bathroom, added amenities such as bicycles, snorkeling equipment, air mattresses and frisbies to make your stay more enjoyable.

What makes this property unique

The tropical gardens inside the complex are extremely well groomed and the pool is cleaned every morning and kept clear and balanced chemically so it is seldom if ever cloudy. The complex is well maintained with 24 hour security.
