Fitness-friendly vacation rentals in Paquera

Villa Jaco was like paradise every time we looked out the window and saw the ocean! The unit itself was very comfortable and spacious for the 4 of us. We made use of the pools, barbeque areas and pool table that were always accessible and well maintained. We appreciated the security surrounding the Villa and never felt nervous about touring the streets of Jaco. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. Mouxh Gratis !

Great location. Safe, great restaurants and groceries just steps away. Beautiful views from the 16th floor. Fabulous balcony for watching sunsets and drinks. Everything g about Viva Jaco was perfect. New, clean, spacious, beautiful bedding and towels. The AC and shower water pressure worked great. TV was large and we had access to news and our Netflix. The outside pools and gym and amenities were super. This condo is perfect and if it’s available I’d book it fast. During our one month stay in Costa Rica this was our favorite stay.

Our stay was truly amazing, Martin and the staff were so helpful and even helped us with getting taxis for departure, the place was peaceful and the beautiful and very close to everything. 10/10 would stay again.

The condo was clean and comfortable with a beautiful view of the ocean. The building is well managed and has a lovely pool and beach access. We would stay again for sure. One minor irritation was regular loud music coming from the Best Western nextdoor; however they kept it quiet before 10 am and after 10 pm. It wasn't a problem for us but may bother some.

Great place to stay! It has everything you need, a view of the waves, and a short walk to the beach! Lots of good restaurants and cafes in the area too

My second stay. Great place and location.

The unit was clean, modern and comfortable with plenty of room. The property and amenities were extremely well maintained and enjoyable. Como en Casa was extremely responsive and helpful including recommendations for local tour providers. I researched the area quite a bit and highly recommend this property and its location. If not available, look for another place with Como en Casa to ensure a great experience. Neutral facts for renters: close to downtown but not in middle of noise/traffic, at least once, watch the sunset from top floor elevator lobby, beds are firm, wash your own dishes, washing machine is combo but mostly just a washer, beach accessible across the street (path thru private property but not closed or posted), gym simple but functional, wifi good in unit and common areas, use Costa Cat for Isla Tortuga, El Miro is worth the hike, groceries cheaper at Mas X Menos vs Auto Mercado, Como en Casa can reserve space at the pool grill with advance notice

The place is lovely and homey. Very private and nicely located in a peaceful area. A lot of amenities included which came in very handy!

The condo was better than described. We normally stay in hotels, and I’ve only been to 5 or 6 Airbnb’s. This was by far the best from the little toiletries that were included to the extra towels for the beach and anything you could think of. Costa Rican coffee was great and provided. Even a welcome bottle of wine! The condo was exceptionally clean, the communication with the owner was excellent. The view is really nice overlooking the golf course and we had our coffee there and could see beautiful macaw birds in trees. We rented the golf cart for a couple of days which is a nice way to get around. Nice thing to do is there’s a little beach just passed the marina where there are about a dozen monkeys in the trees and they will come really close to you. I would highly recommend staying at this condo.

The place is very comfy! Teh deck is great place to have coffee. Pool is great and very close and we enjoyed the Beach Club access.

Shelley is an invested host! She offered accurate information about activities and restaurants. Raquel the property manager was extremely responsive and helpful arranging airport transfer and activities. The location is superb – next-door to Crocs resort so you benefit of a quiet private location and pool with a gorgeous view plus a resort style pool and amenities.

Norman is the best host. Very communicative with excellent recommendations for our stay. His place is gorgeous and we would happily stay there again if Costa Rica weren't so far away. Loved our vacation, thank you!

Beautiful place! Perfect location across the street from the casino, little corner store and restaurants 2 feet off the property and short walking distance to local bar scene. Had an amazing time and the amenities of the building are useful if you don’t want to go out.

Wonderful host and wonderful accommodations. Loved everything.

A short but wonderful stay. Our third time staying here and as always Josefina was a great host allowing us to check in earlier when we got there earlier than expected and greeting us with hugs. Mar Arena condos is a beautiful location right on the best part of the beach in Jaco. You can't go wrong staying here!!

Service and communication were great. The apartment was super beautiful with an amazing view.

Everything went great, we enjoyed our stay!

Seriously the BEST air b and b. Jose was so kind. He gave us an early check in AND a late check out for FREE since we were worried about leaving luggage in the car while we were on an excursion. The house was beautiful and comfortable. The pools were amazing! loved everything about it! would definitely recommend!

We had an amazing time at this beautiful property! The house is stunning, well-maintained, and perfect for a relaxing getaway. The pool was a highlight—clean, refreshing, and a great spot to unwind. One of the staff members even took us on a hike to a private swimming hole on the property, which was an unforgettable experience. The entire stay was peaceful and relaxing, exactly what we were looking for. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a mix of adventure and tranquility!

Liliana's villa is located outside of Jacó's crowds, in an actively developing village area and is very private and feels safe. It takes 5-7 mins of driving to reach route 34, and about 15 mins to Jacó´s main street. There are two small crocs in the rainwater ponds, which show no interest in the people walking around the pond. Nearby supermarkets - Maxi Pali (large middle-grade store) just outside of Jacó and Automercado (fancy smaller supermarket) in Herradura Beach. The best nearby beach is Playa Manta, from which you can get straight to Playa Blanca, which has nice yellow sand. You can park your car on the hotel beach parking ($40 per car Fri-Sun, $20 per car on a weekday, includes shower) or on a nearby narrow unpaved street (tips to parking attendants when you leave, shower can be purchased separately for $5). Above are 2025 prices.

Excellent service, the place is beautiful and quiet

We stayed at Christopher’s place for our honeymoon and absolutely loved it! We saw so many cool birds, iguanas, geckos and insects while hanging outside. It’s located in Playa Hermosa, just outside Jaco, and centrally located with so many great beaches and restaurants! It’s a very beautiful and peaceful area and nice that it’s just outside of Jaco if we wanted more restaurant options. Christopher recommended some delicious food in the area and masseuses (Askel) to come to the house for a couples massage. There was also free pizza delivery and grocery delivery. Be sure to ask Chris for local beach recommendations and things to do!

The host (Marlon) was very responsive and was there when we arrived to welcome us with a high class. Very comfortable beds, air conditioning in the living room, kitchen and in each of the 3 bedrooms. There are also three standing fans. The pool of the complex near the accommodation with several pools and layout is lovely. We would recommend it without hesitation. If we have a chance, we will come back.

Beautiful home right on the beach with amazing host who was always right there to assist when needed. The home was immaculate and beds very comfortable. The kitchen was stocked with everything you could need. The living room was a great relaxing spot and my favourite was the patio table overlooking the pool. We loved this home and you can tell the owner takes pride in hosting. We will be back at the first opportunity . Highly recommended. Thank you for an amazing few days!
