About this property

House + Guest House at 500 yards from the beach.

Casaflex is our newly renovated paradise just a 5-minute walk to the beach.

The house includes a 3 bedrooms main house and an annexed guest house with a queen bed and a bunk bed. This additional guest house includes a full bathroom, a kitchenette, and a counter for lunch. This setup makes the house ideal for 2 adults couples to have some sort of privacy during a long stay.

Have a peek of the ocean from the terrasse and look at the parrot while taking your coffee. You can also take a walk to the village for grocery shopping, go to the beach and take surf lessons.

The house is very safe and secure. There's a guard on duty every evenings and nights. The house is also equipped of security cameras, safes, alarm systems and digital locks.

The charming beachside town of Esterillos Oeste is a short drive 20 minutes from Jaco and 40 minutes from Manuel Antonio. Although Jaco is only a short drive away, Esterillos Oeste remains quiet and peaceful with his 300 people. The town is surrounded mostly by patches of rice fields, grazing cattle, and thick tropical rainforest. Once you arrive in the modest town center near the beach, you will find a couple of small grocery stores, a few restaurants. Costa Ricans live in Esterillos Oeste, but there is also a sizeable population of ex-pats from USA and Canada including several living around the house.

Esterillos offers stunning views of the Pacific, and access to some of the best surfing and paddling in Costa Rica. This area is renowned for its abundance of fish, including black and blue marlin, sailfish and dorados, making it the perfect spot to cast a line and land a live one with sportsfishing expeditions. Visitors who want to remain on dry land can head out into the lush rolling hills that surround Esterillos Oeste on an ATV, or indulge in a leisurely trek through the countryside on horseback.

Walking distance to the beach

This house has very good value for what you pay for. The property has solid walls and gates, which is great for feeling secure, although the town does not feel un-safe at any point. The beach is a short walk, as is the grocery store and several restaurants. I stayed with my wife and our 2 kids, and the house is a perfect size for the 4 of us. There are plenty of beds to sleep more, but I suspect a large group would find the common space a bit crowded. Overall this is a great spot to vacation. I highly recommend it.

Our trip to Eaterillios Oeste

This was an awesome location and perfect lay out for 6 adults and one teen. Easy access to the beach, stores, sodas, and surf board rentals. Reasonable drive to Mangrove monkey boat, Manuel Antonio Park, Jacó and Resteraunt on the beach in Playa de Bejuca. I highly recommend this rental

Great House

The house is great and well equipped. We stayed for a month and all we could need was there. Foldable chairs on the property for the beach as well as pool floaties. The location is up quite a large hill from the beach and has stairs to the pool so not appropriate for someone with a mobility issue. There is a grocery store and restaurants within walking distance.Owner and property manager are great and respond immediately.

Tropical Oasis in Costa Rica

My graduate school cohort loved our stay at Julien’s Oasis in Esterillos. The property is beautiful and as described! The owner kindly allowed us to have an early check in and late check out. House is situated within a short walking distance from the beach and driving distance from Jaco and Quepo. We would definitely stay here again!!

Great house for our Costa Rica adventure

House is just as the pictures show. Plenty of space and attentive support from the management company. The area was a nice staging point for exploring the southern region. As can happen, the power went out one night for a bit, but they had candles already there so we swam in the pool by candlight, which isn't a bad way to spend an evening.

Great little spot in costa Rica

Easy to access house. We only stayed in the main part of the house and it was rainy season. So cooler and the AC in the bedrooms was very needed still. We had a slight issue with on demand water heater in main house shower but went over to the guest house to shower the kids. Pool was perfect. There is a packn play and high chair for the younger kids. We rented surf boards from Brett’s Surfboards down the road.

CasaFlex was amazing. Great communication with hosts and staff, lovely neighborhood. Would recommend people rent a 4x4 when staying there because the dirt roads around it can be a little dicey. Loved Esterillos Oeste and the property, especially the outdoor shower and the pool.

Nice stay with family

My wife, our 3 adult children and I stayed for a week during the Christmas holidays. The property was very comfortable and exactly as described on VRBO. The house sits in a quiet and quaint village. As described on VRBO, the beach is just a short walk away from the house. Although it is certainly not the prettiest beach in the world, it is wide, clean and wasn't very crowed (even on the weekend). There are some nice restaurants/bars that are just a short walk from the house including Restaurante El Patio and Restaurante Los Almendros. We also enjoyed some lunches in nearby towns. Really enjoyed lunch at Soda Gorabito in Jaco (inexpensive local flair) and La Junta in Domigal.The property manager, Keylor, met us when we arrived and showed us around the property. He also checked in (via text) couple of times during our stay and organised a few activities for us including the ATV rides, coffee experience, guided nature walk at Manuel Antonio National Park and massages for my wife and daughters. All of the activities were great, but my favorite was the coffee experience. It was hosted by a friendly couple (Alex and Hana) from the village, who provided a very interactive coffee tasting (coffee/snacks/culture & history). Alex and Hana also host guaro tastings, which we weren't able to experience. However, they also provide surf lessons which both my daughters took and had a great time. Overall, wonderful vacation. Thank you Julien and Keylor & team.

Beautiful Property

The property is beautiful and offers two separate living spaces who h was very helpful in our case. The quiet town felt very safe and gave convenient access to stores and restaurants. The pool was lovely and the ocean was a short ride (or long walk) away. We did have some issues with power going out periodically and a plumbing failure (and flooding) during a heavy overnight rain storm. The host was extremely responsive in both cases which was much appreciated. I think the plumbing and electric could both use a good update to prevent this in the future. That being said, I would happily return for another stay here as it was truly a beautiful place that allows you to safely and comfortably experience authentic Costa Rica.

Great spot!

Thank you. We visit Costa Rica regularly and love Esterillos Oeste. Even though it was just the two of us this time we really wanted a nice porch and a private pool. The house had everything we needed and then some! It’s close to Jaco so we did a few things there and hiked El Miro, also Carara National Park and we love the Rainmaker in Parrita. The Super Sol in town has everything you need food/drink and had a resident scarlet macaw that was flying in for some sunflower seeds. El Patio has great wings and pizza and Soda Margarita has amazing breakfast (gallo pinto, eggs, bacon) and it’s right on the beach. Great property close to everything!

About the host

Hosted by Julien

Host profile image
We are a young family of 4 with twins of 5 years old from Montreal, Canada and we found out coincidentally that the community is called Canada Hill. We bought this lovely home in 2021, and since we have put a lot of love and work into it. We like to travel, meet local people and try different things and taste various food. We like sports, games, music and coffee. The twins are not into coffee yet :)

Why they chose this property

In 2021, we built a small studio-type guest house to comfortably stay with other couples of friends and today our pretty property is today a cross between local architecture and modernity. We can now go have a coffee or do a yoga session on the roof of the studio which offers a view of the ocean. Canada Hill, the surrounding community, includes friendly Canadian, American and local expats.

What makes this property unique

The ocean view from is unique and perfect to watch macaws. Esterillos village is also lovely and not denatured from its roots. EO beach is great for walking, surfing or fishing what can we ask more ?! :)
