Casa Mariposa • Garden Hideaway 5 Min from Beach

Welcome to Casa Mariposa, a colorful 2-bedroom, 2-bath home in Playa Chiquita, surrounded by tropical gardens that attract butterflies and wildlife. Designed with an open layout and privacy in mind, it’s perfect for couples, friends, or small families.



The two bedrooms sit on opposite ends of the house, each with fans, closets, and windows that open to the gardens. The master bedroom has its own bathroom with a bathtub, while the second bedroom also has a private bathroom with a shower.



The kitchen is fully equipped with stove, oven, fridge, blender, rice cooker, and coffee maker, and you’ll also have a washer and dryer for your stay. The open living and dining space flows onto the terrace and garden, making it easy to enjoy the outdoors.



The property includes private parking and sits in a quiet Playa Chiquita neighborhood, just 400 meters from the beach. Restaurants, small shops, and the well-known El Duende Gourmet are right down the road.



Casa Mariposa is simple, cozy, and close to everything, the kind of place where you’ll feel at home in Costa Rica’s Caribbean.

Casa Mariposa

The property was well located off the main road and at the end of the lane for privacy and quietness yet was within walking distance to the beach, the shops and restaurants. The bedrooms were roomy and clean and had plenty of storage space. The kitchen was beyond well equipped right down to the rolling pin. It was a pleasure to stay at Casa Mariposa and we would recommend it to others.

Fantastisch huis

Het huis was heerlijk. Twee grote fijne slaapkamers, twee douches/ badkamer en een grote keuken met vers water unit. Twee gebouwtjes verbonden door grote loggia overdekt waar je heerlijk kan zitten.Contact met de eigenaar super fijn.Heerlijke tuin rondom,helemaal vrij liggend. Enige dat miste waren twee lekkere stoelen . De stoelen waren niet comfortabel genoeg om lang te zitten . Verder was t jammer dat er veel lawaai rondom was van diverse huizen die verbouwd werden echt de hele dag door en muziek uit diverse huizen rondom.We hebben een heerlijke week gehad. Grote tuin rondom en helemaal vrij liggend.

Primera vez siendo usuaria de Casas del Caribe y fue bastante satisfactorio

El sistema de reserva en general fácil y si tenía problemas amablemente y de manera pronta contaba con un buen servicio al cliente (atendieron temas de agua e internet durante la estadía). Sobre la casa, una buena ubicación para visitar toda la zona ( cerca de manzanillo, punta uva y puerto viejo), las fotos son actualizadas y veridicas, como se ve, así es. El jardín muy bonito, la limpieza la valoramos mucho y fue excelente, gracias por eso. Cocina muy equipada, lavadora disponible, buen chorro de agua en las duchas, reglas e instrucciones muy claras. Iluminación en el jardín- al ingreso. Ducha externa para quitar arena, portón y perimetro más seguro (hasta adentro puede ingresar quien sea de manera fácil) advertir que es zona sin cobertura de teléfono y que el servicio a internet no es bueno (durante la estadía nunca nos funcionó) valorar hacer una piscina. Tuvimos compañia de gatos que parece viven, duermen ahí y pues eso a nosotros no nos agradó.

Increíble paz y hermoso jardín!

Todo estuve super lindo! La propiedad en sí es súper hermosa, los jardines atraen tantos animalitos que vienen a saludas! Las camas muy cómodas y la cocina super bien equipada! Definitivamente volveremos! Quedaría super bien una piscina en el jardín de atrás!
