Casa Salt Y Sol was incredible and beyond our dreams. From the check in process to the incredible homes, everything was perfect. Casa salt y sol has amazing staff and is the perfect location in Playa grande. The pool and backyard is very private and we all enjoyed when the monkeys were near. The beach is a two min walk, across the street. It is sooo convenient . We all enjoyed the sunsets every night at Playa Grande while swimming in the warm and wonderful Pacific Ocean. Many of us walked the beach each morning for our 5 mile walk. We could not have asked for anything more. Casa salt y sol was outstanding and we will highly recommend it!! It will be a yoga retreats dream and surfers retreat dream when the open air studio if complete. I can even image using the open air studio for writing retreats and mediation retreats.
We are all looking forward to returning many times with many different friends and groups. Thank you Salt Y Sol for an unforgettable vacation

Response From: Grande Vacation Rentals

Wow! Thank you so much for this incredible review. We’re truly delighted to hear Casa Salt y Sol exceeded your expectations and that everything—from the team and location to the pool, wildlife, and beach access—made your stay so memorable. It’s wonderful to know you were able to enjoy sunsets, long beach walks, and time together as a group. We also love your vision for the open-air studio and can’t wait to see it enjoyed for yoga, retreats, and creative escapes. We sincerely appreciate the recommendation and look forward to welcoming you back again and again. -KC

This home was beyond our expectations! The house is huge, beautifully furnished and has all the amenities one could ask for. The housekeeper is sooo friendly and keeps the house clean. Breakfast was made for us each day and it was delicious.
The rooms are all spacious and with their own safes. The pool has two wonderful lounge chairs in the shallow section that we all enjoyed. Monkeys were in the trees above several days, which was an added bonus.
The beach is literally across the street. This was the most beautiful beach to walk and enjoy. Sunsets at the beach each night are a must!
We enjoyed some of the local restaurants for breakfast, lunch, happy hour and dinners. We also really loved cooking at home in the huge and well equipped kitchen and outside grill.
We recommend this house to everyone and anyone. It was such a great location!

Response From: Grande Vacation Rentals

Thank you for such a wonderful review! We’re so glad the home exceeded your expectations and that you enjoyed everything from the spacious rooms and pool loungers to the delicious breakfasts and visits from the monkeys. It sounds like you made the most of both the house and the amazing location—between sunsets on the beach, local restaurants, and cooking at home. We truly appreciate your recommendation and would be delighted to welcome you back anytime! -KC

Una casa perfecta para disfrutar en grupo.

Tuvimos una excelente experiencia en esta casa en Playa Grande. Es súper espaciosa, ideal para grupos grandes (éramos 16 personas y estuvimos muy cómodos). La cocina está completísima, con todo lo necesario para cocinar y compartir en grupo. Tiene área de juegos, piscina amplia y todo en excelentes condiciones. A los niños les encantó ver los monos mientras se bañaban en la piscina, fue un toque mágico. La ubicación es otro gran plus: está a solo 3 minutos caminando de la playa, solo se cruza la carretera y en menos de 20 metros se llega. La casa es realmente hermosa y se nota que la mantienen con cuidado. Disfrutamos muchísimo nuestra estadía y sin duda la recomendamos para familias o grupos de amigos que buscan comodidad, buena ubicación y contacto con la naturaleza. ¡Volveríamos encantados!

Response From: Grande Vacation Rentals

¡Muchísimas gracias por tan linda reseña! Nos alegra enormemente saber que disfrutaron tanto su estadía en la casa y que fue perfecta para su grupo. Qué gusto saber que se sintieron cómodos, aprovecharon todos los espacios, y que los niños disfrutaron de la visita de los monos—¡definitivamente un momento especial en Playa Grande!

Cuidamos mucho la casa para que siempre esté en las mejores condiciones y comentarios como el suyo nos motivan a seguir haciéndolo con cariño.

Será un placer recibirlos nuevamente cuando quieran regresar. ¡Gracias por recomendarnos!

You can't do much better in terms of location - Casa Salt y Sol is literally a 2 minute walk to the beach. The beach is gorgeous, quiet and great for surfing or just lounging around. The home itself is immaculate, very large and relaxing pool area. Plenty of space for large groups with quiet areas if you need a little space to work. Amazing furnishings/amenities. Ivette (the in-home 'mom') was a STAR - incredibly tasty breakfasts, keeps the home immaculate during your stay and extremely helpful with anything you may need.

If you are looking for a memorable beach vacation, this is the place for you!!!

Response From: Grande Vacation Rentals

Thank you for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that you loved Casa Salt y Sol’s location, amenities, and relaxing atmosphere. It’s great to know the home provided the perfect balance of space and comfort for your group. And we couldn’t agree more—Ivette truly is amazing! We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words to her. We’d love to welcome you back for another unforgettable beach getaway in the future!

My friends and I had an unforgettable experience staying at Casa Sal y Sol! It was our first time in Costa Rica, and we were looking for a place that was spacious, safe, and conveniently close to the beach—and this place truly had it all. The house is about 30 minutes outside of Tamarindo, and really was the perfect balance of a laid-back surfer town but also had charming restaurants and local spots. The house is very close to the beach, making it incredibly easy to run back if we forgot anything, and the beach itself was peaceful and uncrowded. Each room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. My guests and I slept great! One of the highlights of our stay was the housekeeper who came daily to tidy up and make the beds. She was incredibly friendly and also helped those of us wanting to practice our Spanish. We all agreed that this Airbnb was absolutely worth every penny. We’ll definitely be returning and recomend it to any family or friend group looking to enjoy Costa Rica!
