Bed hard as a rock

I reserve my stay for over a week. I had to check out early because I lost power multiple times, it was hard to get in to the lock box but the back breaker with the bed had a combat veteran. I’ve slept in many hard surfaces, but I don’t expect to find the hardest surface. I slept on to be a vacation rental. I would not recommend this place.. I vent too many VRBO’s in Costa Rica since I grew up there, stay away.

Great location, nice pool, good value

We enjoyed our stay. This place is in a very nice location that is close to a lot of things, including a great beach spot. The building is good— not great and is starting to show its age a little bit the place was a little dusty in spots.. but nothing to be too concerned about. This is a solid choice for anyone seeking a convenient place with an imperfections that don’t matter much.

Tranquil hideaway

Great apartment with everything that you need, plus some nice extras like beach chairs and beach mats. Walkable to the beach and downtown, but just far enough to be quiet. Great backyard and pool to enjoy with a bit of nature and animals and birds around you. We found Potrero to be cleaner and quieter than other towns we stayed in and handy to lots of great snorkelling spots.
