Great Location
The property was as expected. Check in was easy. We had one minor issue where the propane tanks were empty but the owner was very responsive and addressed the issue quickly. The house is a short walk to the beach. There was great snorkeling and a cute waterfront with bars and restaurants. We loved the pool area. One note about the house layout. If you have a very large group (we had 19) and use every bedroom, some bedrooms are not accessible unless you walk through another bedroom. Same situation with the bathrooms. But other than that we had a great stay and would book again.

Great location for a large family vacation
Our sixteen family members, including 8 adults and 8 children ranging in age from 6 to 16, fit beautifully in this spacious and well located house. The long table on the verandah accommodated all of us for the dinners we ate together at home. We walked to morning yoga near the beach, to the beach and lighthouse to watch the sunset, to local shops and coffee shops. We walked to the nearby beach and did some surfing close by as well. The pool area was attractive and comfortably furnished and the kids spent hours in the water. The owner was easily accessible and responded usually within minutes to questions. The local manager was also easily contacted. We all greatly enjoyed our week's vacation.

Perfect Family Getaway
Pura Vida was the perfect house in the perfect location for our family of 15. The house was lovely and had plenty space for us to both gather as a group or spread out on our own. It was located a very short walk from the beach, marina with a cute bar & gelato shop. Rincon with its great bars & restaurants was just a mile away! And the owner was extremely responsive when contacted. When we couldn’t find a large pot to cook dinner our big family spaghetti night dinner, Chris made sure 2 were delivered!!

Perfect For Family Trip
This was the perfect place for all of my 18 family members. There was plenty of room for everybody to sleep comfortably and plenty of room to not be on top of each other. The kids loved going to the pool and we enjoyed the centralized living room/kitchen for all of us to gather. We appreciated the fast and prompt communications with both the owner and property manager. We would definitely book again for our next family trip.

We stayed here for the week with a big group for my husbands birthday. First of all the house is beautiful and kept up very well. It's very clean and super spacious. From booking, our entire experience was phenomenal: the property owner and property manager were both extremely responsive and beyond accommodating. The property manager was easy to contact and helped us with anything that we needed. Check in/out was quick and informative. There is a lot to do nearby, the house is a 5 minute drive or 15/20 minute walk from town and a 5 minute walk from the marina (both great places to hang out). The furthest we drove was to Crash Boat beach (35 minutes, highly recommend a day there) and to Gozalandia Water Falls (50 minutes, another thing I highly recommend). ALSO, it is close to surfing beaches, the lighthouse and many restaurants and food trucks (don't forget to stop at the food trucks!!) We really lucked out and are very glad to have stayed here. We will definitely stay here again next time we come.

Awesome House
Our group of 12 friends had a blast staying a Casa Pura Vida. Really cool place, and very spacious. Especially enjoyed the pool area and all the patio space. Location was great and the communication was fast to get us power via the backup generator turned on when the block's power went out due to work on the power lines down the street. I strongly recommend.

Our family used the house to host a family reunion to celebrate our grandmother’s 80th birthday. Adults and children were comfortable and had plenty to do. The house is close to the town and beaches. Chris and Joe are great hosts, and Joe cooked an awesome lunch for 25 to celebrate the occasion. I appreciate their flexibility and responsiveness when we had to reschedule our trip because of the hurricane.

Family Vacation
The property is very large with lots of beds. It has a nice pool with a patio that we enjoyed. The large living room and kitchen space with the surrounding balcony was another highlight. There were some notable drawbacks though. The property was not at clean as it might have been. For example, one set of sheets had what appeared to be bloodstains on them, one of the bathrooms had left over vomit in the area behind the toilet, and one of our kids found a syringe in a garbage bin. The washer in the downstairs apartment also needs more regular filter cleaning--we got a horrible smell in the room from standing water in the filter. Our host was very friendly but we would have appreciated more guidance. We got a very rushed and brief tour of the property (he seemed eager to get somewhere), that did not include some basic information such as how to get to the beach. This seemed esp odd given that our check-in time got pushed back and then forward on the day of arrival. The house also does not include a written guide with key info on the property and area. It was very much a fend for ourselves situation. Fortunately, we have family on the island who could provide a lot of info about the area. The organization of the house is also a bit odd. The main bedroom space (on the second floor) consists of 5 rooms. One quirk is that one of those rooms is a room with 2 large bunk beds, clearly designed for children. However, to get in and out of the second floor you have to go through that bunk room. It's possible to get out of two of the rooms via the balcony doors,. but two other rooms have no way to get in or our except through another room. Also, there are two bathrooms on that floor, but one of them is attached to a bedroom with a full sized bed. So, there's basically one communal full bath on that floor for the 4 bedrooms other than the one with its own bathroom. I'm not complaining about this, but making note of it since it did present some challenges for our party. To be clear, it is a large and relatively comfortable property with lots of space for a large group of people. We just found a lack of attention to detail that seemed surprising at t his level of property.

Fantastic family vacation!
Pura Vida was the perfect spot for our family vacation. As a group of 8 adults and 6 children, all aged 6 and under, there was something for each of us and plenty of room for everyone. Each level of this three-story house has a spacious porch with comfortable and ample table space and seating as well as a full-size hammock on each level. It was easy to gather in the main living and kitchen area which had several double doors that swing open onto the porch allowing for a delightful breeze each day. Each room was tastefully decorated. The outdoor space was wonderful for morning coffee, daytime relaxing, and evening apps and cocktails. The pool area was a family favorite and made for a great birthday party setting for our oldest grandchild who celebrated her 7th birthday here! As in the house, there is plenty of seating and table space in both sheltered and open spaces. The lounge chairs were extremely comfortable. This is located within walking distance of both family beaches and surf breaks. Restaurants and sports equipment rentals are also nearby The only drawback we found was that the house is in need of some updating. We would love to visit again!

Beautiful property in need of serious work
We were so excited to stay at Casa Pura Vida as the house was able to accommodate our group of 15. The location was perfect as it is 3-minutes away from a balneario and 5 minutes away from grocery store/shops. The outside area of the house is incredibly beautiful with the pool area being the highlight of the trip. The inside of the main house has 6 bedrooms (1 Queen Bedroom in Main Level and 5 Bedrooms in 2nd level). There's also an apartment downstairs with a separate entrance that has a King Size Bedroom and 1 Queen Size Bedroom. For the 2nd level, 2 bedrooms (King Size Bedroom and Queen Size Bedroom) out of the 5 bedrooms do not have an exit to the terrace so you have to go through the other bedrooms to get out. It's a layout issue but it's important to consider before assigning rooms. Our main concerns were about cleanliness. We understand that rodent issues happen but we had to be address an issue with a little mice during our stay and it created a huge inconvenience for our family. We also dealt with dirty kitchen/living room floors, the upstairs washer smelling moldy, the smell and visible signs of mold in some walls/ceilings. We handled some of these issues ourselves since we couldn't wait for the host since we had small children with us. Overall, we managed to deal with it. Joe was helpful and responsive but, for the amount of money that we paid, we expected a better experience. We would not stay here again or recommend this property.
