Casa Luminaka in Playa Grande's exclusive Palm Beach Estates

A block from the beach in Playa Grande’s luxurious Palm Beach Estates, this two bedroom bungalow is nestled on a large landscaped lot with a pool shared by the other five bungalows scattered nearby.

We had an amazing time in Playa Grande. The Casa is in walking distance from the beach, surf lessons, a small market, multiple terrific restaurants and the water taxi to Tamarindo. We spent hours in the naturally heated pool, grilled out a time or two and generally lazed about in air conditioned comfort. Shawna was super responsive and answered our every question. Highly recommend.

Close to Beach, Restaurants, Activities
Home was as described. Lots of new housing construction on way to home and in area. Enjoyed an estuary boat tour that departed within a few blocks of the home. During our three nights day, we saw monkeys, iguanas, beautiful birds from the house. The house had all amenities needed, including pool/beach towels. The pool was a welcome relief from the heat. Nice quiet property, very roomy. Once at the house it’s a bit of a ride to go back to town so bringing some groceries was a great idea. Enjoyed several outdoor nearby restaurants. All in all very satisfied and would return. Host was available and welcoming.

Cousy place, always!
We've been a few times in Casa Luminaka already and we can't get enough of the good things; the house is clean and safe, our kids love the pool and with time you feel this is your second home. You're sharing the pool so there is always an opportunity to make new friends! We did short walks to the beach in the mornings, it's easy to feel connected to nature; birds, monkeys, new sounds and animals set the stage to a beach where you find the peace of mind we're looking for in our vacations.

Very Relaxing Time
Thank you for a wonderful stay. We loved the casita with its nice pool. One of the nicest treats was the beautiful beach with virtually no one on it. We also appreciated having some English language television, such as prime, video, and Netflix.

Amazing!!
Perfect location with 10 Min walk to empty waves. Villa was clean, comfortable and complex of 6 units offered plenty of privacy. Pool was steps away which was perfect for us to view our son in the pool. We loved it and would definitely stay again!!
