Review from Airbnb Guest #192368

We were greeted the moment we arrived and escorted to the home, which is perfectly located minutes from groceries, restaurants and the beach. The home was clean, comfortable and well stocked, with lovely decor and furnishings, and outdoor spaces on both sides. Watched birds from the plunge pool and enjoyed the fountain while dining outside. Separate shower at entry is ideal for washing off beach sand. Towels and beach chairs were provided. Las Catalinas is a great place for mountain biking, hiking, ocean swims and bird watching. Wish we could’ve stayed longer!

Beautiful accommodations, close to beach, restaurants, pool, shopping. We loved our time at Las Catalinas!

We stayed 4 nights here and absolutely loved the home, the location and the unparalleled town of Las Catalinas. The home is stylishly decorated, very comfortable...including cozy beds...and well-appointed. We loved sitting on the multiple balconies enjoying sun, shade and cool-offs in the plunge pool. The walk to the beach takes just a minute and was a visual pleasure every time. The walk-only "streets" weave you past fountains, gorgeous architecture and beautiful landscaping. Instagram heaven.
Beyond that we met many fun and interesting people from around the world relishing in this little piece of paradise. And there's tons more to explore here, including an extensive trail system, restaurants, beach games and more. The snorkeling is excellent as well.

Get ready to really relax and enjoy everything you could possibly want on a vacation while staying at Plaza Carlota #11. The accommodations where perfect and everything you could want while on vacation was available. The unit is perfect for 2 couples or a family. We loved both options for dining and eating outside with the two different balconies. The location couldn't be better within Las Catalinas. Just steps from the beach, dining, amenities and more! The unit felt like home and everything was maintained and in great condition! Hope to come back sometime in the future!

We had an amazing experience visiting Las Catalinas. The town is spectacular, and 11 Plaza Carlotta was perfect for our family. It is in the middle of the beach town, very close to the beach, the beach club, the restaurants, and next door to the Copper & Stone market. Diego was incredibly helpful prior to our arrival communicating and getting our experiences set up. He then met us upon arrival, and showed us around town & to our home. He was accessible during our stay for questions that arose. we are very thankful for Diego & his commitment to helping make our vacation spectacular. Thank you to the Blue Zone team!

Linnea and John's property is gorgeous - tastefully decorated, thoughtfully laid out, and has everything you need. We had an incredibly comfortable stay and a magical time. In fact, upon returning home, our two kids complained that the beds there were more comfortable! So we may have to go upgrade our sheets now. Las Catalinas is a marvel of tasteful, thoughtful community building. We will absolutely plan to return!

Review from Airbnb Guest #211831

A true gem located in a town like none other. We had an incredible stay here! The house was very clean and extremely comfortable and surpassed our expectations. The communication was easy and they provided lots of information on restaurants and activities to do in and around the area. We enjoyed access to the beach club (at an added cost), but well worth it. The beach is walking distance and is quiet and gorgeous. The entire town is quiet and peaceful and allows for a very relaxing holiday, but should one need a more authentic Costa Rican vibe, the nearby town of Potrero offers just that!
We would return here in a heartbeat and highly recommend this house!

This is our second stay at one of Alejandro's properties at Las Catalinas, and this place did not disappoint! The layout is perfect for family with kids or group of friends. The plunge pool and outdoor area is so picturesque and inviting, full of well taken care of plants. The back porch was wonderful to sit at with our family as we ate a meal and watched the rain come down. I highly recommend this place and would book this place again in a heartbeat! It is very close to Cooper and Stone, so we walked there every morning for freshly made juice and freshly baked pastries.

Las Catalinas development is like being in a small, quiet town in Europe without cars. Everything is fresh and new. Cobblestone streets. Great Restaraunts. Ice cream store. Music. Phenomenal beach facing west so incredible sunsets. We used Blue Zone Experiences as a concierge. They planned diving, snorkel trip, zip lining, tubing, eco adventure etc. definitely a place to go for all ages.

Review from Airbnb Guest #246621

we just came back from a magical stay in Las Catalinas! Our family of 4 had an amazing stay at this property! Nikki, Kelly, and the entire Blue Zone Experience team made our stay super.vomfortable, easy, and helped us with any and all details - from coordinating transportation to dinner reservations to planning activities! The fact that their team is there to assist you makes staying in the home worth it! I can't say enough about how much I appreciated their help, patience, and recommendations.

The home itself is beautiful ? It looks exactly as pictured and felt very relaxing and comfortable. We loved the foyer shower and found the beach towels and chairs very useful. We spent a lot of time on the deck playing cards games and enjoying breakfast and my daughter enjoyed the plunge pool after a hot day. There was plenty of space for my family of 4 and we enjoyed being close to the grocery store!

We are.already planning our next trip back!

This house has a great style, is centrally located with very easy access to the beach club, the ocean, and the town center, all within minutes walk. The bed and linens were particularly comfortable. The small pool was fantastic. Our four-year-old, and adults too. Las Catalinas is an amazing place and this house is the perfect base camp.

Great two bedroom home within walking distance to the clubhouse and beach. Host is very responsive and his management company met us during check in to show us around. Had a great time there. Will book this place when I come back.
