Beautiful Location Lovely House
The hammocks were so relaxing with all the nature sounds and birds singing. There were even howler monkeys and scarlett macaws in the yard. The walk to the beach was absolutely gorgeous and the beach was even more stunning. This was all around such a great stay. Can’t say enough nice things.

Not what expected
Aunts in every bathroom. Very heavy doors including main gate Combination Two adults needed to slide gate. Beach not what you call walking distance. Water pressure was so low could barely wash or brush teeth much less shower. The place was so depressing, we left after two nights. We are requesting some refund.

Ben is the best
Ben is the best host. He is super easy to contact, he replies in less than a hour usually, and if there’s anything you need he’s the guy to ask. His recommendations were wonderful. We loved the restaurants nearby, and Playa Avellanas is incredible. Thanks so much for everything Ben. Pura Vida!

Live Like a Local
Ben and his staff went out of their way to initiate and maintain communication with us as soon as we arrived in Costa Rica. We loved spending time outside on the hammocks and deck, and the proximity to the beach and restaurants was appropriate walking distance for our family which included small children. We had some hiccups with hot water and outlets due to a lightening storm but Ben and his crew were very responsive and got the issues resolved promptly. The property felt safe and we were happy to experience life in a Costa Rican style home. I would recommend the property to anyone with similar expectations. We would stay there again! Thanks Ben!

Great beach getaway!
Me and a small group stayed at both places on Ben's property. The accommodations were nice for what I have experienced in Costa Rica. The property was a short walk to the beach and Ben's was a very responsive host!

Great place with a great vibe
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Ben was a great host, super friendly! All the rooms have cold AC which is important on those hot days at the beach. All in all a great stay, would recommend 10/10!

Avellanas Surf,
We stayed with our adult children , 7 people all together. The house looks even better than the pictures, it was very clean and obvious pride taken in the preparations. The 3 California King beds were great, the AC a luxury and 3 bathrooms with showers! I booked this home based on good reviews about Ben himself and he didn't disappoint - he went above and beyond, he helped the surfers in our group, with boards, suggestions and lessons/coaching. He also was full of great info on the area, where to eat get groceries, tours and transport. He lives the Pura Vida life. The walk to the beach is about 10 minutes, we got to see howler monkeys and all sorts of birds , geckos lizards on the way. The boardwalk through the mangroves was the best. The price for accommodation is very reasonable based on location, Avellanas beach is gorgeous and not over crowded. Lolas and Las Olas were daily visits for food. We all hope to visit again.

All in all, we had a wonderful experience staying at Ben’s casa.
Wonderful host and perfect spot for our three-generation family for our first visit to Costa Rica. Each generation had a bathroom and bedroom with air conditioning, Wi-Fi and a TV. Our host, Ben, was very respectful of our privacy, and also very thoughtful about making sure our needs were met. He had fresh fruit waiting for us when we arrived, boogie boards for the kids to use, and even bought beach chairs for us grandparents to use! It was nice to be able to cook up a meal in the little kitchen and keep water chilled in the refrigerator. Ben even offered to have someone wash our clothes! He was available for any questions that we had about the house or surrounding area, and truly wanted us to have the best time! We felt very safe behind the large, locked gate and the outdoor security cameras added to our feeling of security. We enjoyed waking up to birds, squirrels and occasionally howler monkeys in the trees around the house. Our grandsons loved walking next door to get delicious ice cream cones from Barney and Georgiana at Surf Hub Gelato. The walk to the beach was possible for all of us and does entail walking on the dirt road for a short distance, then over a boardwalk without railings. Grandpa does have some balance issues, so the boardwalk was a little more challenging. We were close to many delicious restaurants (Ben had lots of recommendations), and small convenience markets. Ben also referred us to a local tour guide that took us on two wonderful tours.

Great place for an authentic Costa Rican experience
We are a family of four that stayed at Ben’s property. Two adults and two teenage boys. Ben was great to communicate with when we booked the place, and while we were there. The house has three king size beds giving everyone a lot of room for sleeping (although a few more pillows would have been nice). Each room had an air conditioning unit. There are also three full baths. One challenge we faced, and which Ben is getting fixed, is we could not run the air conditioning units and take hot showers at the same time. The power would go out. It wasn’t a huge deal. We would keep the ACs off while we showered, and Ben said he is getting this fixed. Outside, we enjoyed the Hammock’s, especially in the morning. And one morning, we were woken up by some howler monkeys! It is a 10 minute walk to the beautiful beach. And Ben gave us recommendations for restaurants and he gave us boogie boards for the beach. I do recommend if you are going to get a car, that you get an SUV. Majority of the roads in town are dirt so an SUV is easier for travel. Also, to get into Ben’s property there is quite a steep short dirt driveway where an SUV would help. The property itself felt very safe as there is a huge sliding gate with a lock to enter the property and we’ll as additional locks on the doors to the house.
