Pictures are very accurate, the property is mere steps to the beach. Potrero is a great, quieter beach town that has some great food nearby. Excellent coffee, smoothie bowls, and massages are less than 10 minutes walk away. Short drive to Tamarindo if you want more of a party scene or more surfable beaches. Hosts were great and responsive to messages.

The property had an amazing view of the ocean and was walkable to many restaurants, bars and for groceries. The unit was well laid out, clean and had basic amenities. The only negative was the air conditioner in the main living area could not cool down the space.

This recently updated condo has everything needed for any length stay. Right on the black sand beach, small(expensive) grocery stores and restaurants nearby, very close to Flamingo and not far from Tamarindo. We loved every minute of our stay.

We had a wonderful stay at this property in Playa Potrero. The beach being right outside was perfect for travel with two young kids. The baby monitor we brought even reached the pool area, easily. The town is very safe to walk around, and there are just enough places within walking distance. We went to the closest place (a coffee/sandwich/salad type place) twice and also really loved the brewery with courtyard and food stalls.

Fabulous condo on the beach. Walking distance to a few restaurants from the beach but requires transportation to stores and other shops. Safe, quiet and located on a volcanic sand beach. Wished we could stay more than 2 nights! Thank you!

This was the nicest condo we stayed in on our trip to Costa Rica. The beach view from the condo was awesome, it was clean, beds were comfortable and we loved walking and swimming on the beach. There was also a small pool that was partly shaded late afternoon. This was the perfect place for us to relax at the end of our trip.

The unit and the grounds were gorgeous! When we realized that the air conditioner in the main room wasn’t working, Krain immediately replied and came to look at it. When it was determined that it needed to be replaced, they immediately got to work finding us a new property. We were moved the same day to an equally beautiful place with a gift bag for the inconvenience of needing to relocate. Would highly recommend and use again!

We had a great time at this beautiful condo. The online listing was spot on. We had no problem checking in, the pool and view was amazing. The locals were super friendly and knowledgeable. We loved staying here and hope to be back! Many good restaurants within walking distance as well as fruit stands and grocery store. The sand on our beach was more of a black color when you got up on it, however Flamingo Beach is a short drive away they have white sand beaches with big waves. The sunsets were magnificent! Make sure to go for a night swim and stop at the Shack & Hemingways for food !!

Everything was as expected/hoped. Property was clean, right on the beach. The area is quite quiet which is what we were looking for. Property manager was available for recommendations and assistance (such as a local taxi).

The condo is well appointed and met our expectations based on the description. I would suggest to the property management to offer a mid week clean. This would have been a helpful option. Otherwise Krain was very helpful and responsive to what ever we needed.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family of 4 (2 elementary-aged kids) enjoyed this condo for a week in December. The location was amazing - direct access to Playa Portero (the photos are true!) and within walking distance of the town of Portero. The condo itself was well-appointed, comfortable, and roomy. We enjoyed using the BBQ on the balcony and the kids found plenty of pool and beach toys for them to use.There were board games and DVDs for when we needed a break from the sun. There was a problem with the water heater that was fixed in record time and with extreme professionalism. I highly recommend this property and hope we can return some day.

When we first stumbled upon this villa on HomeAway From Home, it seemed almost too good to be true. There must be a catch! But everything was as perfect as it seemed online. Gaily's Dream place is at a perfect location, very easy to get around and walking distance to awesome bars and restaurants. Totally recommend it.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We really enjoyed our stay in Gaily's dream. Being right at the beach and with such a wonderful view from our window was amazing. The kids loved the buggie boards that was available in the apartment. We also enjoyed the patio and the fact that we could view the pool and the kids from the patio as well. So the location is great. A fruit stand and grocery store is close by. The apartment itself is nicely decorated and perfect for a family of 4. We ate many of our meals at home, often outside on the patio.

The bed was comfortable and best of all the view was spectacular. Beach towels, chairs and an umbrella were supplied. The pool is right outside the condo and we mostly had it to ourselves. It was an easy 10 minute walk to the little market and many restaurants.

Check in and out were quick and simple and the Krain staff were helpful and friendly. There were beach toys and body boards in the condo, which we used extensively and the pool was great for times the kids wanted something other than the ocean. We enjoyed the movies and board games in the condo as well. We would definitely come back.
