6 Bedroom House in Junquillal, Playa Junquillal

Welcome to Casa Juliana, a privately owned villa nestled on a hillside in the serene village of Playa Junquillal (pronounced hoon-key-yal) in Costa Rica's Guanacaste region. This property is basically brand new with major additions and renovations that were completed in January, 2025. Now offering 6 spacious bedrooms and 6.5 bathrooms, comfortably accommodating up to 24 guests. As a group of 8 people it is priced well and you feel like you are using the full house with room to spread out.

Enjoy the new Bernar Dos just steps away on the beach with a creative menu and amazing sunset views.

Summary: I cannot say enough about this property! The attention to detail was amazing! Kitchen was fully stocked, beds are comfy property was beautiful and the locals and their restaurants were great! To our family rainy season was barely rainy, only when you wanted to nap from all the excursions. Michael and Chiara were very responsive and answered all of my questions! PURA VIDA!
