…About Us

We Are the ONLY Accommodations Directly in Front of the Surf at Playa Hermosa's Famous Almendro Tree

Your search ends here. Hermosa Beach Bungalows is the beachfront escape you've been dreaming of — and we have everything you need to make it unforgettable.

Also known simply as Hermosa Bungalows, our collection of twenty beachfront bungalows sits inside a lush private community, each one individually owned, uniquely decorated, and equipped with modern amenities. These are real, freestanding homes — warm, welcoming, and full of character — not sterile concrete condos.

Nestled on Costa Rica's Central Pacific coast in Playa Hermosa, just ten minutes south of Jacó Beach, we're only 1½ hours from Juan Santamaría International Airport (SJO) in San José — easy to get to, hard to leave.

Our property is elegantly landscaped and beautifully positioned on an unspoiled, undeveloped stretch of coastline. Playa Hermosa is one of Costa Rica's most iconic surf beaches, home to "The Tree" — a world-class wave breaking right outside your front door. Spend your days lounging by our stunning saltwater pool, strolling miles of pristine black sand beach, or savoring a lazy lunch on your private veranda while tropical birds drift overhead.

Every bungalow offers its own distinct experience. Wake up to sweeping ocean views, watch surfers carve the swell from your balcony, settle into a poolside unit where the action never stops, or retreat to one of our serene jungle-view bungalows — complete with sliding glass doors opening onto a private back terrace facing the peaceful mountains.

Hermosa Beach Bungalows is also the perfect launching pad for adventure. Sailing, deep-sea fishing, jungle hiking, canopy ziplines, ATV tours, horseback riding, whitewater rafting, surf lessons, golf — it's all within easy reach. Our on-site concierge team is ready to help plan every detail of your stay, and yes, we even have an in-house sushi chef and massage therapist.

Bungalows

Every bungalow here tells its own story. These privately owned, individually decorated homes are vacation destinations in their own right — no two are exactly alike, and that's exactly the point.

Choose a bungalow with sweeping whitewater views of the coastline, where you can watch surfers ride the swell from the comfort of your balcony. Opt for a poolside unit if you love being in the heart of the action, or find your perfect sunrise or sunset orientation. For something more intimate, our jungle-view bungalows open through sliding glass doors onto secluded back terraces, framed by the lush mountain range rising directly behind Playa Hermosa.

When you reach out to our rental team, just tell us what matters most to you — your preferences always come first.

"I cannot thank you enough for taking my reservation at the last minute. We had the most wonderful weekend, you definitely have a little piece of paradise going on! Your place is amazing, you have great taste in decoration and it is so peaceful. They say that there is no place like home but I think this definitely is very close to it!! We completely fell in love with everything.

Hermosa Bungalows has become No. 1 vacation place!"

Andrea

"A small slice of heaven on earth!! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here on Playa Hermosa. We took advantage of the many activities in the area: canopy tour, ATV tour, a day in Manuel Antonio (spectacular!), sunrise walks on the beach, sunset walks on the beach, and one of us even learned to surf! We have been staggered and humbled by the natural beauty of the area. It has truly been an unforgettable experience!"

"Thanks for letting us use the house. We had a blast. You can't beat the location and I'm gonna miss getting up early and chilling on the front porch watching the waves in Hermosa. The house had all the nice amenities so it felt almost like home. Taking a dip in the pool after a great session in the water was nice too. I'd highly recommend anyone looking to go to Costa Rica to stay here."

Erik Hoffacker

"We wanted to tell you how much we enjoyed our stay at Hermosa Bungalows over the New Year. The property was immaculate and the landscape was lush. Our bungalow was even better than it looked in the pictures. We met many interesting vacationers from all over the world. We were only a short drive to Jaco and Los Suenos Resort."

"We will heartily recommend Hermosa Bungalows to anyone we know that is planning a visit to Costa Rica!"

Keith and Linda Hadden

"We had great time just relaxing on the beach, and hanging out by the pool. Everything was so perfect we even got engaged here and are considering getting married here as well. We cant wait to go back again."
