Seas the Day - Potrero Guidebook

If you do not already have it on your phone, please download WhatsApp. WhatsApp is the main way of communication in Costa Rica. This will also be the easiest way to reach us in an emergency. We will also get you connected with a local agency if we can't help you.

CAR RENTAL: While not required, we recommend renting a car prior to arrival at Liberia International Airport. You can take a shuttle or taxi to our residence, but to truly explore everything that Guanacaste and even our general neighborhood and area have to offer, a car rental is ideal and strongly recommended. While there are multiple options to rent from in Liberia, we recommend renting from SIXT Rental Car. Address: Plaza Futura, Guanacaste Province, Liberia, Costa Rica. Phone: +506 4000 7496 You can also contact Oscar via WhatsApp +506 8652 5219 to speak with a local SIXT rep.

There are reminders posted inside the casita, but please do not flush any toilet paper down the toilet. This is a very common practice across all of Costa Rica and you will likely see it elsewhere in restaurants and other locations during your journey as well. It does not take much for the toilet to clog, so please dispose of your toilet paper in the trash can next to the toilet.

Costa Rica can be a very warm place, we get it! The need for quality air conditioning can certainly arise, and we want to help ensure that you have an air conditioner in working order. Because Costa Rica is always so warm, it can be very hard on air conditioners to keep up. Running the Air Conditioner all day will freeze up the unit, and will risk damage. Because of this, please make sure that when you leave the unit to turn off the air conditioner. We understand that you want a cool place to come back to, but leaving the AC on all day will freeze and/or break the unit.

Instead, turn off the air conditioner and leave the fans on to circulate air. Also, make sure the blinds are drawn to ensure no excess sun comes beating down into the unit when you are gone. Surprisingly, these two steps will keep the unit cool while you are out. When you return and spend time in the unit, simply turn the Air Conditioner back on. The unit cools down very quickly if these processes are followed. Note: Please do not turn the air conditioner below 70 degrees

While outside enjoying the patio space it is good practice to leave the main front door closed. Leaving the door shut will help keep the indoor space cool. It will also keep out any critters and bugs that you don't want indoors. ( We hope to install screens on the windows and doors in the future)

A natural part of staying in a tropical paradise are bugs, mosquitos, spiders, geckos, etc. Some people are mosquito magnets and some lucky ones are not. Using bug spray is helpful, especially in the evening. It also is a good idea to throw a bottle in your beach bag to carry around with you if you go on hikes, out to bars and restaurants, etc. Better to have it on you just in case. You may also notice the presence of geckos in and around the casita and area. Geckos are harmless and will not hurt you. They are our friends as they eat mosquitos and bugs.

Please adhere to all check out policies to keep our casita as beautiful as it was when you arrived. Thank you! * Leave all wet towels hanging individually, inside the casita * Leave at least one interior fan on and circulating * Make sure all lights are off * Ensure all trash is removed and taken to the dumpster (if just left out front the skunks get it) * Make sure all dishes are clean ***There are extra fees for items not returned and left in the same condition they were in upon your arrival. We understand that accidents happen. Please inform immediately if so***

A good habit to get into is to rinse your dishes immediately rather than let them sit. Letting dishes sit on the counter or in the sink can attract insects. It is also helpful to wipe off counters well after use to keep away any crumbs or sweet liquids.

We offer free Wifi. You will find additional information within the casita. There is no cable or satellite television, but the televisions are smart tvs and available for streaming (Youtube, Netflix, etc).

Your key code will be your code for your entire stay. When Leaving the casita just ensure the door is pulled fully closed and hit the lock emblem. We always suggest double checking the door is locked before you walk away. HOWEVER, YOU NEVER NEED TO LOCK THE BOTTOM HANDLE. IF YOU DO, YOU WILL BE LOCKED OUT!!!!

Please sign our guest book before you depart!! It is a fun (and important) part of the vacation! New guests love reviewing past notes from anyone who stayed previously that can impart any knowledge or suggestions about the area, and we love to hear from our guests!
