Neighbourhood
What guests love most about our neighborhood is the perfect balance of convenience, walkability, and authentic Costa Rican charm. Plaza Colonial is located in the heart of Playas del Coco, one of Guanacaste’s most welcoming beach towns. From the condo, you can stroll to dozens of restaurants, cafés, bakeries, shops, grocery stores, and local markets without needing a car. The beach is just a short walk away, making it easy to enjoy morning walks along the beach, spectacular sunsets, or an evening cocktail or meal at the many options on the beach.
Playas del Coco is known for its friendly atmosphere, year-round sunshine, and excellent location as a base for exploring Costa Rica’s famous Gold Coast. Within a short drive, you’ll find beautiful beaches such as Ocotal, Hermosa, Panama, and Flamingo, along with snorkeling, diving, sailing, fishing, and wildlife adventures.
One of the area’s greatest advantages is its proximity to Liberia International Airport (LIR), located only about 25 km away—approximately a 30-minute drive. Guests can often leave the airport and be relaxing at the beach or enjoying a cold drink on the same afternoon. Despite its convenience, Playas del Coco retains a relaxed beach-town feel, making it an ideal destination for travelers seeking both comfort and authentic Costa Rican experiences year round.
Getting to my home
Plane: Most people land at the Liberia Airport (LIR) which is only a short 25 minute drive away
Driving: The paved highways are good making the trip from other areas of Costa Rica easy and enjoyable.
Nearest airport
It is only located just 25 minutes from the Liberia (Guanacaste) International Airport (LIR).
Getting Around
A lot of individuals prefer walking everywhere but if you're thinking about exploring beyond the town, it's advisable to consider renting a car or booking a tour with one of the awesome tour companies in town.
There's an abundance of beaches and activities located within an hour or two from Coco. You wouldn't want to pass up the chance to experience those exciting adventures.
Additionally, street-legal golf carts are available to rent. They provide an excellent means to discover the surrounding neighborhoods of Coco or make your way to Playa Ocotal and the renowned Father Rooster's Restaurant.

We are so happy that Nadene let us stay in her bamboo garden oasis in playas del coco. It is a great appartement with access to a beautiful pool which makes it the perfect getaway.
We had a lot of contact with her house manager Lennis who was so friendly and kind. Great to have a contact person around.
The apartment has everything you need or want
Our first exchange is complete and Nadene and Ron made it so easy. There downloadable guide was a fantastic tool that we referred to multiple times.
Their home, Bamboo Gardens #1 was so beautiful, clean, well-stocked, and thoroughly enjoyable. We are already talking about coming back!

Feedback for Fanny·Non-Simultaneous exchange·8 nights
Although I was traveling myself during the exchange, I understand that it went very well. Fanny was unable to make it but my property manager Lennis said her brother Marco was a great guest.
We look forward to visiting Fanny in Italy one day.
Feedback for Eline·Non-Reciprocal exchange·22 nights
Eline and family were awesome guests! Although I was out of the country at the time when they visited, my property manager commented on how great they were.
We wouldn't hesitate to have them stay with us again in the future.
Feedback for April·Non-Reciprocal exchange·9 nights
Hi Nadene! I hope France is as fun for you as Costa Rica has been for us! I have tried to leave you a review but I keep getting "Access denied". I was thinking it was because I am on my phone but here I am, able to respond to you. I'll message Drew to see what I need to do. But, I just want to say, thank you for the lovely, clean, well stocked accommodations. You made our first exchange a dream come true.

My husband Roland and I love to travel!! We are experienced exchangers and have recently retired in April 2026. Finally!!
We are super excited to meet many of the PLU members as we travel the world.
We own a motorhome in Europe which we use 5-7 months each year …while the weather holds. We love to exchange whenever possible when not on the road.
We are non-smokers.
