We stayed at the property towards the end of our 16 day Costa Rican vacation. Two adults and our children ages 18,17, and 7 stayed in the Penthouse. There was more than enough room for all of us.
The home description online is correct and actually the home is even better than described. Fully stocked kitchen, super clean, and Shirleny is a gem!
We really wanted to relax and hide out and this was the perfect place to do so. Shirleny was kind enough to do some grocery shopping for us so we didn't have to leave the first night and then arranged for a chef for us to come everyday to fix us lunch, snacks, and dinner before they left. It was AMAZING! Michael made us a full seafood dinner our last night and everyone was so unexpected and appreciated, we were blown away :)
We only left to walk to the beach - quite a bit of a walk down but only about a 10m walk down (15 walk up). There is a parking spot or your can rent a golf cart. we decided against it because we like the walk. The beach is beautiful and safe for the kids. We went snorkeling and saw a huge leatherback turtle! We opted on not getting the bands so we can get into the beach club because truthfully we wanted to hide from everyone. however, the beach club looked pretty cool and it looked like they had things for kids as I saw a lot of them at the local ice cream shop with painted faces.
The pool is clean and always warm. it was nice to take a dip anytime we wanted. We've watched numerous lighting shows from the pool - its huge!! The view is unbelievable and on a clear day you can see straight across to the peninsula.
We were very sad to leave - and we had previously come from Nayara Springs! Definitely the way to end our vacation. Playa Blanca is a gem that is not crowded and Casa Blanca is safe (3 guard posts to get to the home). Would definitely stay here again.
