Award-Winning Luxury Ocean View Condo 275 Yds from the Beach


The award-winning Vista De Sirena is located in a quiet and secluded fishing village 15 miles south of Jacó.  The building sits on a hillside just 275 meters from the beach and offers one of the most amazing views of the ocean along the entire western coast of Costa Rica.  Enjoy a short walk to the beach where you can put your feet in the sand, play in tide pools, snorkel, swim or surf.  You can also charter a world-class fishing tour in nearby Quepos or Herradura, or join up with one of the local fishermen right here in Esterillos Oeste.  The waters are teeming with Snapper, Jack and a variety of other delicious fish.  A short scenic drive will lead you to Jacó for shopping, dining, and great night life.  A 40-minute drive in the opposite direction will take you to Manuel Antonio, the most popular national park in Costa Rica, where you can enjoy hiking and swimming and experience a diversity of wildlife.

Each of the building's three air conditioned units has a spacious entry with plenty of room to leave your surfboards or anything else you need to store behind locked doors.  On the right hand side of the walkway you'll find the entry to the main living area, kitchen and dining space.  At the other end of the main living area you'll enjoy the panoramic view of the ocean through the wall of glass with large sliding doors that open up to private balconies. For added privacy, each unit resides on its own floor and has three bedroom suites. Two suites feature king beds; the third suite has a queen bed; One of the bedrooms has a full bed that pulls out from under the king bed for additional sleeping accommodations. Additionally, each bedroom features pillow-top beds with memory foam toppers.  

The rooftop is an ideal place to enjoy the company of close friends and good food while sitting at the palapa bar, lounging on the deck, or swimming in the infinity pool.

The penthouse unit comes with a few added luxuries.  The main living area is considerably larger with more windows to enhance the views and a gorgeous teak-paneled ceiling.  If you want to the enjoy the cover of being indoors and still feel the ocean breeze, the entire ocean-facing wall slides open providing a spacious entry to the balcony.

*Please note: our beautiful condo is located in a quaint, small village in a second world country. Power interruptions can occur.

Fantastic Stay! We had 3 families with adult kids and 2 16 year olds with a total of 16 people. Everybody had a great time. The house was very clean and the many bedrooms all had private bathrooms. The view from each floor and the rooftop pool area was excellent. We saw monkeys, birds, iguanas (lizards?). Each floor can be locked up individually. Javier was very helpful to us and easy to work with. The beach is a short walk. Easy driving to Jaco and Miguel Antonio park for activities. Big tip- close by is Restaurant Los Almendros, it is outstanding and less expensive than the patio which is closer. A hidden gem. It is up on a hill but i easily drove the gravel road eith a 12 person toyota van. No suv needed. Overall great stay- We had a blast! Matt F.

Fantastic place for a big group
This is a great house for a large group of people. Very roomy. Amazing view. Quick 5 minute walk to the beach. A/C and wifi worked well. Super Sol is a quick walk and has everything you need. Walk up the hill is steep and the house has lots of stairs but would recommend without hesitation. Great pizza place nearby. Los Alamandros has great food and if you're looking to surf, Brett's Boards is amazing.l

Spectacular views. Lovely location.
Our group of 10 adults had tonnes of space to spread out and lots of room to get together as a group. It was a short walk to an almost secluded beach. Javier was great! Super attentive and a short 5 minutes away. He arranged a ride for us into Jaco and recommended a restaurant that even delivered our dinner on the first night. We had a blast!

Incredible Views & Excellent location
We had a large party so we were able to rent out the whole place, plenty of rooms and very spacious with all required amenities. One thing to keep in mind is anything can happen when traveling internationally and it’s best to have a open mindset. It makes the entire experience that much more enjoyable. I’d recommend this for anyone who’s looking to spend a few days in Jaco area.

We had an amazing time in Esterillos. The owner David was super helpful with tips before we arrived and Javier the property manager made everything easy for us once we arrived. The layout of the house made it easy to accommodate our big group. The big roof terrace had a nice pool and excellent views. Playa Esterillos is gorgeous. It goes on forever and the clientele was very family oriented.

You can leave spending more money than you pay.
I would not return to this house in my life, they stole our belongings from all of us. It was noticeable from the beginning that the person in charge of the house looked suspicious (OIJ report submitted) The administration of the house knows these points and takes advantage of this. Incidentally, the insurance does not cover anything.

Dave went over and above to help our four families fully enjoy our time in Costa Rica! His home is beautiful, the views were amazing, and the sound of the crashing waves with the local wildlife were magical! We all fell in love with Esterillos Oeste - more authentic feel than other areas we were considering. Nicely positioned to take advantage of some adventure activities! This will not be our only visit to Dave’s beautiful place!

Slice of paradise
We stayed at this property Mar 18-21 2021 for a long weekend getaway to celebrate my husbands 50th birthday. Our group consisted of 13 adults anywhere from the age of 29 to 50. The house was more than enough room with three separate levels and a full kitchen on each level you can’t go wrong! David the homeowner was extremely pleasant and easy to communicate with. Javier, property manager, was beyond helpful. Javi helped us coordinate hiring ladies to come in to cook breakfast and dinner for us one of the mornings and evenings. He also helped arrange a few excursions including ATV tours for our entire group, massages on the rooftop, hiking to see the waterfall and a river boat tour to view the monkeys (which I highly recommend)! The house is just a short walking distance to the beach, was very clean and met all our needs. Would absolutely not hesitate staying here again if we have another large group vacation to Costa! Pura Vida!

Amazing trip to Costa Rica
Thank you Dave for sharing your beautiful home! We had an amazing time! Your place was perfect for our large group of 15 from Florida. I cannot say enough about Javi and how wonderful he was! 😊He was there to help us with anything and everything we needed including booking excursions (horseback riding on the beach, ziplining, sunset catamaran tour, ATV tour and local fishing with William.) The local fishing was a hit with everyone and we were able to eat our local catch for dinner on two evenings. We arranged for some local cooks, Evelyn and Karina, to cook breakfast and dinner 4 days for our large group while we were there and it was perfect! Everyone loved the food and enjoyed getting to know Evelyn and Karina. This location is centrally located and an easy car ride to other destinations such as Jaco, Hermosa Beach, Quepos and Manual Antonio. Awe are looking forward to our next visit to this beautiful piece of paradise! PuraVida! 😊

Spacious but has plumbing issues
We were a large family staying to celebrate our 25th anniversary. For that, the organization of this house was fantastic. There are three floors allowing for separation of personal dynamics with plenty of elbow room. However, it should be noted that the lay out of beds on the site is not accurate. There are large trundle beds under most of the rooms accommodating extra persons - not the master bedroom on each floor. The location was wonderful. It on top of a hill in a small town with ocean views but note that this is NOT beachfront. The climb up to the house is strenuous but well worth the views. The added rooftop amenities - pool, BBQ, bar and hammocks were used by everyone. All three kitchens were well equipped with a full kitchen including US sized appliances and dishwashers. There were plenty of dishes and cups provided for. However, please not that there are no beach towels provided and in the rental agreement it noted that you may not use the house towels for the beach. We brought our own but that took a lot of space in our luggage. It would have been nice to have the available considering how close the house is to the beach. Javier who locate contact was easy to communicate with on WhatsApp. He helped to facilitate cooks for our party and was a nice stress relief. However, contact with David - one of the owners in the US proved to be more challenging. He was not as good at getting back with me and failed to give Javier the down payment made to the cooks. He also did not pass along our request for the first meal which lead the cooks to have to grab a taxi to get supplies at the last minute and I had to pay for that. These ladies are great but not chefs, but are nice cooks and helpful if you want reduced stress while on vacation. The plumbing issue started the first night we arrived. The Master bathroom in the penthouse flooded and leaked into the Master bedroom. Javier arrived promptly to clamp the leak and fix it the next day so for 1.5 days Master bedroom did not have hot water. The weather was helpful in that it was super warm and we found it tolerable not to have hot water. However, the on the third day of our one week stay. The there were more leaks in the ground floor Master bathroom and another bathroom in the penthouse. Javier did have come several times to fix everything and did so in a timely manner, but still I was a disappointed that with such a lovely home the up keep was not better.

A 2019 Summer to Remember...thank you!!
Our family stayed at David’s home in Esterillos Oeste in July 2019. We were very happy with the courteous and helpful advice we received from David prior to traveling to Costa Rica. The gracious hospitality continued once we arrived at the beautiful home and met with Javier, the property manager. The house was perfect for our large group with several families that traveled to celebrate graduations! Everyone had their own suite…and were so happy! Plenty of bathrooms and space to move around. The rooftop was a favorite place to gather and enjoy the beautiful ocean view, hangout with the iguanas, see the macaws fly by every day and visit the resident juvenile sloth on the back hill. I think we even saw lemurs in the tree one afternoon on the hillside! The pool was a perfect way to cool down each day after being in the ocean. Some of our family’s highlights included fishing with William where our ‘fisherman’ caught 15 mackerels…enough fish to feed all of us for 3 nights plus giving fish to William and Javi! Our ceviche was the best. :) Javier traveled with us on a (must do!) monkey boat ride through the river ways and we enjoyed a delicious lunch at Manuel Antonio. The was just a short walk from the condos and nice for boogie boarding, surfing and family soccer games. David recommended surfboard rentals from Brett, who had everything we needed and was super nice to work with. At the home, a huge pantry and kitchen with all necessities for cooking (on every floor), a nice gas grill as well as a couple of trips to Masxmenos grocery store in Jaco enabled a full week of in-house meals, saving a lot of money for our large group. It was also very helpful to have washers/dryers on every floor of the home, as we were able to pack less clothes and return home with suitcases full of clean ones! We would highly recommend this home to families traveling. We felt safe and cared for by Javier. If we needed anything, he was just a quick text away and super helpful. Thank you David and Javier for making our Summer 2019 one to remember! Pura Vida!!
