{"product_id":"casa-luminaka-beach-bungalow-in-playa-grande","title":"Casa Luminaka – Beach Bungalow in Playa Grande","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCasa Luminaka is a furnished 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom beach bungalow for sale in Palm Beach Estates, Playa Grande, Costa Rica, located approximately 500 meters from one of Guanacaste’s most celebrated Pacific beaches.\u003c\/strong\u003e Offered at $449,000, this inviting tropical home combines a highly desirable walk-to-the-beach location, an intimate community setting, a shared swimming pool and an established vacation-rental history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith approximately 120 m² (1,292 sq ft) of construction on a 160 m² lot, Casa Luminaka is an appealing option for buyers searching for a Playa Grande home that can serve as a full-time residence, an easy-to-maintain Costa Rica beach retreat or an income-producing vacation property.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eLight-Filled Tropical Bungalow in Palm Beach Estates\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCasa Luminaka has the relaxed architectural character that suits life near the beach. High cathedral ceilings add volume to the interior, while oversized windows bring abundant natural light into the home and create a bright, airy atmosphere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDouble doors connect the interior living space with a spacious covered terrace overlooking the tropical gardens. This sheltered outdoor area extends the usable living space and provides a natural setting for morning coffee, outdoor meals, reading or relaxing after a day at Playa Grande.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe combination of high ceilings, large windows, garden views and covered outdoor living gives the bungalow an easy indoor-outdoor flow particularly well suited to Guanacaste’s tropical climate and casual coastal lifestyle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTwo Bedrooms and Two Full Bathrooms\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe home includes two comfortable bedrooms, each furnished with a king-size bed and equipped with storage, a ceiling fan and individual air-conditioning. Importantly, Casa Luminaka has two complete bathrooms, providing additional privacy and convenience for owners sharing the home with family, friends or vacation-rental guests.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor a compact two-bedroom beach property, the two-full-bath configuration adds practical value: guests do not need to share a single bathroom, and the layout works naturally for couples, small families or two couples traveling together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFurnished and Ready for the Playa Grande Lifestyle\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCasa Luminaka is offered furnished, reducing the work involved in preparing the property for personal use or continued rental operation. Its manageable size is also attractive for owners who want a Costa Rica property without the maintenance demands of a large villa or extensive private grounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe property has already been established as a successful vacation rental and the source listing reports outstanding guest reviews. That existing rental history, combined with the two-bedroom\/two-bath layout, pool access and proximity to the beach, gives buyers several possible ownership strategies rather than limiting the home to one type of use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOnly Six Bungalows Around a Tropical Pool\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCasa Luminaka sits within an intimate collection of only six bungalows arranged around a landscaped common area and swimming pool. Instead of the scale and atmosphere of a large condominium project, the setting is small, green and residential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe surrounding gardens include tropical fruit trees and attract the wildlife for which this part of Guanacaste is known. Colorful birds and iguanas are part of the setting, and howler monkeys are occasional visitors. The landscaping, pool and low-density arrangement of the six homes reinforce the relaxed character of Palm Beach Estates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor buyers who want a pool but do not necessarily want the upkeep associated with maintaining a large private pool and grounds, this type of shared amenity can offer an appealing balance between lifestyle and maintenance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eApproximately 500 Meters from Playa Grande\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLocation is one of Casa Luminaka’s strongest advantages. The property is approximately 500 meters from Playa Grande, and the source listing describes the walk to the surf and sunsets as less than five minutes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePlaya Grande is internationally known for surfing and its broad Pacific shoreline. It is also part of Las Baulas National Marine Park, an important protected coastal environment associated with leatherback sea turtles, beaches, mangroves and estuarine habitat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBeing able to walk from home to the beach is an important lifestyle advantage in Guanacaste. Owners and guests can head out for an early surf session, spend the afternoon at the beach or walk down for sunset without making every outing dependent on a car.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003ePalm Beach Estates: Nature Close to Restaurants and Tamarindo\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePalm Beach Estates combines a quieter residential environment with convenient access to the amenities that make the Playa Grande area attractive to both residents and visitors. Restaurants and cafés are located nearby, while Playa Grande offers a laid-back beach community atmosphere distinct from the busier center of Tamarindo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the area’s distinctive connections is the Tamarindo Estuary water taxi. Crossing the estuary provides access to Tamarindo and its broader selection of restaurants, shops and services, giving owners the ability to enjoy Tamarindo while returning to the more tranquil setting of Playa Grande.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003ePlaya Grande, Guanacaste Real Estate\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlaya Grande has become one of the most recognized beach communities along Costa Rica’s northern Pacific coast, attracting surfers, nature lovers, vacationers and international property buyers. The combination of beach access, protected natural surroundings, restaurants and proximity to the greater Tamarindo area makes it particularly attractive for buyers seeking both lifestyle and rental appeal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCasa Luminaka’s location within Palm Beach Estates places it in that environment while offering a comparatively compact and manageable property. Rather than a large luxury residence, this is a true beach bungalow: two bedrooms, two full bathrooms, furnished interiors, tropical outdoor living, shared pool access and a short walk to Playa Grande.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA Flexible Costa Rica Beach Home and Rental Investment\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCasa Luminaka can suit several types of buyer. It can be used as a permanent residence for someone seeking a simpler coastal lifestyle, a lock-and-leave beach home for part-time Costa Rica living, or a vacation-rental property when the owner is away.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe established rental history is particularly relevant for investment-minded buyers, although future rental performance will always depend on management, occupancy, operating costs and market conditions. What the property already offers is a strong collection of characteristics vacation guests commonly seek: walkable beach access, two private bedrooms, two full bathrooms, air-conditioning, furnished living spaces, outdoor areas, tropical surroundings and a swimming pool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCasa Luminaka Property Highlights\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOffered at $449,000\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLocated in Palm Beach Estates, Playa Grande, Guanacaste\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApproximately 500 meters from Playa Grande\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApproximately 120 m² \/ 1,292 sq ft of construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e160 m² lot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 bedrooms with king-size beds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 full bathrooms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh cathedral ceilings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOversized windows and abundant natural light\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCovered terrace overlooking tropical gardens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCeiling fans and individual bedroom air-conditioning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOffered furnished\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCommunity swimming pool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntimate community of only six bungalows\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTropical landscaping and fruit trees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNearby restaurants and cafés\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccess to Tamarindo via the estuary water taxi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEstablished vacation-rental history with strong guest reviews reported by the source listing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eIs Casa Luminaka the Right Playa Grande Property for You?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor buyers searching for Playa Grande real estate under $500,000, Casa Luminaka deserves attention because it brings together several features that are difficult to replicate in one property: a genuine walk-to-the-beach location, two bedrooms and two full bathrooms, furnished interiors, a swimming pool, tropical surroundings and an existing vacation-rental track record.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt $449,000, Casa Luminaka offers an opportunity to own a furnished beach bungalow in Palm Beach Estates and enjoy the surf, sunsets, wildlife and easygoing lifestyle that make Playa Grande one of Guanacaste’s distinctive coastal communities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContact BrokerCostaRica for additional information about Casa Luminaka, current availability, or other homes and investment properties for sale in Playa Grande and the surrounding Guanacaste coast.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Playa Grande","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53068137922872,"sku":null,"price":449000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/4115\/1544\/files\/casa-luminaka-pool.webp?v=1790894167","url":"https:\/\/brokercostarica.com\/ru\/products\/casa-luminaka-beach-bungalow-in-playa-grande","provider":"Tony \u0026 Anna Velez","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
