easy as..1

Find Your Perfect Rental

Costa Rica Vacation Rental Homes, Villas, Condos and other rentals offer much more spacious, elegant and private accommodations than hotels or motels. For families and friends traveling together, there's nothing better than sharing a fun-filled, beachfront vacation rental.

  • Consider Your Needs. It's always best to start of with a somewhat broad search initially. Perhaps best to start with your travel dates and the minimum number of bedrooms needed. This will give an idea of how many properties you have to choose from with the "must-have" features.
  • Refine Your Selections. If you find that there are many Costa Rica vacation properties that fit your needs, you can then filter your search by selecting the "nice-to-haves".
  • View The Details. Browse through your final selections to see all the details and photos. Since availability may not always be up-to-date, select several of your best Costa Rica prospects.

Book Your Costa Rica Vacation Rental

After you receive replies from the owners or managers, you can then make your final decision on which beach rental home you prefer.

  • Make Contact. Click on the Inquire button and you will be taken to the owner's or manager's page. You can then decide whether to call or submit a form. We recommend submitting several inquiries in case one or more of the properties is no longer available.
  • The Paperwork. Each rental manager may have different requirements for placing the booking. In most cases, you will sign a rental agreement, and you will receive policies and check-in/check-out information.
  • Payments. You typically pay a damage deposit or purchase accidental damage insurance. Prior to arrival, you will make payments toward the rental cost, including taxes and fees. It is always best to use a credit card or PayPal, if possible.

Plan & Protect Your Costa Rica Trip

Planning ahead allows beach vacation travelers to make the most of their family holiday time. But remember that you have a large financial investment in your vacation. Protect that investment with Travel Insurance.

  • Pre-Plan Activities. Look at the various attractions, activities and dining in the area. Ask the owner/manager if they have any suggestions. Use the Costa Rica Featured Food & Fun listings for ideas and contact information or our Golf Tee Time Reservations and Restaurant.com discount dining certificates. There's plenty to do after a day of swimming or beach activities.
  • Travel Protection. There are a variety of travel insurance policies available to suit your needs. Remember - bad weather, flight delays, sickness-accident-death and many other unforeseen events can delay or cancel your Costa Rica trip. Some even allow cancellation for Any Reason!
  • Respect The Vacation Rental. Always remember that you are a guest in someone else's home. Taking care of the property is the right thing to do, and will also prevent you from losing your security deposit or being liable for damages.
