We had the best stay here. The house is so comfortable and has everything you could need. We enjoyed the beautiful pool and the short walk to the beach, then lounging in the hammocks and watching the sunsets. One of the best places Iâve been, highly recommend this house to anyone!
We thorough enjoyed our time at this rental. The pool area was phenomenal and made up for most shortcomings.An obvious issue would be ants / insects, but this is an tropical location so pretty common occurrence. Communication with the hosts were good and provides extra lights and wash clothes when we ran out.Overall it was a great stay and nice location with a short walk to the beach
The house is absolutely perfect with a beautiful pool and walking distance from lots of nice beaches and food options. The property host was super helpful with any question we had and responded very quickly. Could not recommend this place more.
Great hosts! We loved the location and time spent around the pool ! Close to everything yet private as you feel like your in the jungle! Kitchen is basic but has what you need. Enjoyed everything about our stay in the Jungle House!đŽ
We had a lovely experience and although there was a brown out in the area the hosts did a superb job of seeing we had all of our needs met. I look forward to another visit
Property was not accurately described in listing, but ended up being fine for our group. Property was hard to find, especially arriving at night. Manager was awesome and very easy to get a hold of. Nice walk to beach and shops. Beautiful beaches!
Went for a surf trip and got no waves but the house and hosts really saved the trip! House is in excellent condition and the pool area is incredible for small groups. The host was excellent with communication and very accommodating. Short walk down the hill to beautiful pools beach and about a 5 minute walk to Sandy Beach with excellent restaurants and beach area. 10/10 would visit again with both friends and family!
The house was everything it needed to be: comfortable, close and fun. Ample space and bathrooms for 6 adults, walking distance to restaurants, beaches and bars. The pool area and deck/patio was a perfect spot to relax for the day or come back to after a day at the beach. The kitchen was useable, ate home on multiple occasions. One toilet is slow to fill
This property is magical! We had the best turn relaxing by the pool and listening to the ocean!
We traveled with a group of 8 adults to this magically property. Most of our time was spent by the pool enjoying the beautiful scenery and sounds of the ocean. We were sad when our 4 nights were up and we had to head home. Carol was an extremely responsive host! Every recommendation she gave us was fantastic and she even helped one of our group get back a personal item that was left behind. Carol immediately shipped it all the way back to PA and we canât thank her enough! I canât wait to come back!
We had a wonderful stay in Rincon!
The house was in a great location, and the pool area was fantastic. We were a large group; Upstairs was me, husband, daughter (16), brother-in-law, sister-in-law and 2 kids (9 and 11). Downstairs was my mother-in-law and father-in-law. Downstairs was perfect for them. Upstairs; the beds were comfortable and the air conditioning was ice cold. There is only 1 bathroom which was rough for 7 people, but we made it work. The kitchen was a bit lacking. But, again, we made it work. The coffee truck steps away had amazing acai bowls, the beach was steps beyond that. We walked to restaurants and a short drive to Rincon and tons of other beaches. Overall the experience was fantastic.
We absolutely loved our stay. The property is a very short walk to both pools and sandy beaches and yet the house is in a very private location which is excellent. We really felt like we had the jungle to ourselves every night.
The house was exactly as described and very clean. You should be aware that rincon IS the jungle/rainforest/etc. There are iguanas and birds and all of the fun that brings, personally we loved sitting on the porch spotting iguanas in the palm trees or gardens. Also I'd recommend arriving during the day if you havent been to rincon or pool sushi before. Its not hard to find once you know where you are going but its definitely dark at night and Rincon streets are easy to miss.
The pool area was amazing to hang out in both during the day and at night. The hosts were quick to respond to all requests/questions and all in all we will absolutely be back.
This property is not well maintained and is poorly kept. Many things were broken including lamps, faucet/shower/toilet handles, outdoor chair broken, even the bed was broken. There was a dead roach on the floor & dead bugs in the ceiling lights & the much anticipated bus fell short as it was malodorous. The pool is super pretty but wasnt properly cleaned and the lights & fountain not working until the 2nd to last day we were there. However the views are gorgeous, the location is excellent and the owners were very pleasant, responsive & accommodating. This property has a lot of potential given the proper care/attention. It could be an amazing place.
This place was an amazing find! The location, the people, the vibes were all perfect. The entire place comfortably sleeps 10 people, we had enough bath towels for everyone, the washer and dryer were super helpful with that, we were able to cook food for everyone the entire time of our stay, the A/C units all worked perfectly, and the balconies and hammocks were perfect for everyone to hangout on. Everything we needed was within walking distance and the large supermarket, Econo, was only a short drive away. We had a large group of 10 people all surfers or adventurers between the ages of 24 and 29 so if people wanted to walk around to do their own thing or go for a quick surf sesh it was always easy to find them no matter what. Everyone was either Pool Bar out front, or at Tamboo up the street, or Casa Verde around the corner, or surfing at Pools or Sandy Beach. The convenience and accessibility really made this place stand out to me. I've honestly never stayed in a better vacation house. Sure you'll probably be able to find a more luxurious house with upgraded amenities and more expensive things but lets be honest here... if you're coming to Rincon you're probably coming on a surf trip and those things would be unnecessary to your vacation. And location is everything. I would much rather have an amazing experience in the perfect location than a luxurious house on top of a hill with zero access to anything. And that's what this place is: an amazing experience in the best location that you will never forget. We will definitely be booking this place again next year.
The communication was excellent! The pool was amazing. The roomâs description was not 100% accurate but we made it work with an inflatable mattress. Plenty of things to do at a short distance. Would definitely return.
Carol and Dennis were excellent host. They were onsite or quick to respond to any questions we had. The place itself felt like we had our own resort. The commendations were very comfortable and in a location where you could watch the break at pools beach all day. Looking forward to planning another trip here.
Iâd like to start off by saying that the pool and bar are fantastic, it does need light bulbs repaired on the hanging lights and the sound system no longer works. Unfortunately, we ran into issues with this rental on our trip.
âąNeeds more lighting. The path to the pool and the upstairs unit are hazardous at night with no lights. We had a guest fall.
âąCouldnât find the bus keys, they werenât in the lock box with the other keys. Found them in the outside bathroom behind the door.
âąNo welcome pamphlet for Wi-Fi and how theyâd like the house turned down on exit. âąall the units were dirty. Unswept surfaces with layers of dust. Used washcloths in the downstairs shower and bus shower. Trash still in cans. Used tissues outside of the bus. Put away silverware with food on it still. Showers dirty as well.
âąLower unit shower was broken. Had to be turned on by a valve and canât adjust water temp itâs just hot.
âąUpstairs fridge took 2 days to actually keep anything cold. We lost food because of this.
âąMice and their feces in the bus
âąLower deck is rotting away and the fix was to put an outdoor carpet over it.
âąThe upstairs kitchen lights also control the down stairs bedroom and living room lights. Its super fun being woken up too at 4am. We took the controller from upstairs downstairs so it stopped happening.
âąWe had to ask 3-4 times to get the pool cleaned. Which was cleaned ONCE in 8 days! Pools need to be treated daily.
âąPeople from another unit came over to swim at what we thought was a private pool. Owner was sitting there when they walked up to check the pool area out. Wording needs to be changed to shared with other units if thatâs the case. A member from our party did invite the dad and his kid to swim we werenât going to ruin a childâs vacation.
âąLower units ceiling fan fell while our 7 month old played on the floor. We contacted carol, took them two hours and they simply put the broken fixture back up. It should have been taken down and caped off, another hazard. There is a lot of neglect and band-aid fixes to this house. I have seen carols responses to the other reviews like my own and Iâd like to just say that all of these issues with the house your guest have had shouldnât have to be communicate with you .Just because no one says anything during their stay doesnât mean there wasnât any issues, it means they want to try and enjoy their vacations, theyâve worked so hard to pay for instead of messaging the management for every single thing.
After looking for forever for a place that would accommodate our large group of family and friends we found Pools beach. There was definitely a lot of space for all 11 of us. Their outdoor terrace where the pool is was probably our favorite part!
It is a little challenging to find so I recommend you go during the day as the house is visible from the street. It has everything we needed! A fully stocked kitchen, pool toys and chairs, coolers etc!
Great stay at this time - we had a range of ages, from adults to a 4 year old in our group of 12 and there was plenty of space. The kids really enjoyed the pool and bus, and the walk to the beach was easy and fast. Communicating with Carol, the owner, was quick and easy and she was very responsive. Highly recommend for plenty of space and relaxation.
We really enjoyed our stay here! The deck by the pool used to be a sushi restaurant so the outdoor pool area was huge, with hammocks & pillows, sofas & chairs, a really nice wet bar with a fridge and sink. They even had a yoga mat so I could do my morning workout while looking at the ocean. The pool was huge with fountains and lots of chairs to lay out in the sun. We also had 3 iguanas that would frequently hang out with us. We enjoyed grilling out and having a pool party in the evenings. The location was great too! We walked to Tamboo one night for drinks but spent most nights at this awesome restaurant bar called Kahuna Burger Bar & Grill. Amazing staff! Made us feel at home. Say "Hi" to Tim for us! Sandy Beach and Pools Beach were a quick walk across the street. I found the most beautiful sea glass there! The lodging was decorated so cute...Boho Surf vibes! My bed was a little firm for my liking but everyone else said they were comfortable. I gave this 4 stars because the kitchen was bleak. We had 6 poor college students with us so we ate a lot of meals at the house. Kitchen lacked dishes, pots, pans, utensils, cups that were needed for a party of 9. It was also a little "buggy" which is understandable in PR. But all in all, this was a perfect location for our vacation. Thank you, Carol!
