Playa Grande Loft 1 - Starlink WiFi - Walk to Beach - Sleeps 3 | Apartment in Santa Cruz (Playa Grande is a beach community within the Santa Cruz canton)
1 Bedroom Apartment in Playa Grande, Santa Cruz (Playa Grande is a beach community within the Santa Cruz canton)
Some places you visit. Others you settle into.
Loft 1 sits on a quiet private road just off Playa Grande's main entrance — 10 minutes on foot from one of Costa Rica's most consistent surf breaks and the protected shoreline of Las Baulas National Marine Park. It's the kind of location where mornings start with coffee on the patio and end with a sunset walk to the beach.
The loft is the only unit on the property with an in-unit washer and dryer — a genuine advantage if you're packing light or staying longer than a few nights. The open main level has a full kitchen with high-top bar seating, living area with Smart TV, and Starlink high-speed WiFi. Upstairs, a private sleeping loft holds a queen bed and twin bed beneath vaulted wood ceilings. Sleeps 3 comfortably — ideal for couples, two friends, or a small family.
Outside, your private patio with bistro table and seating is the best seat in the house for morning coffee or an evening beer. Rinse off at the shared outdoor shower after the beach, store your boards in the designated area out back, and pull straight into your dedicated parking spot out front.
Playa Grande is the quieter, less crowded alternative to nearby Tamarindo — same stunning Pacific coastline, same world-class surf, without the noise. The beach sits within Las Baulas National Marine Park, where leatherback sea turtles nest seasonally and howler monkeys announce the sunrise from the treeline.
Everything you need is walkable — Pots & Bowls for fresh bowls and smoothies, a local bakery, Beach Break Surf Cafe, surf rentals, and several restaurants. Stock your kitchen at the newly opened Willsofy Supermarket, a full-service market with meat, canned goods, and everyday essentials just a short walk away. The Store, a neighborhood corner market next to the pharmacy, is perfect for personal items and a quick grocery run. There's also a local fruit stand nearby for fresh produce when the season is right. Tamarindo is 20 minutes by car for additional dining and nightlife. Liberia International Airport (LIR) is approximately 55 minutes away.
A few things that make the stay easier: complimentary mid-stay cleaning upon request, motorcycle and golf cart rentals arranged through a local partner, yoga nearby, and a complimentary Pack 'n Play available for families traveling with little ones — just ask.
