Coronavirus (COVID-19): A Message to Our Guests

As the coronavirus (COVID-19) continues to spread around the world, the safety of our guests and staff at Casa de Cooper is top of mind.

To ensure a healthy stay with us at Casa de Cooper, we have implemented the following safety precautions:

~ Our cleaning staff is being extra diligent in disinfecting the property – before guests arrive and after guests depart -- with particular attention to high touch items and hard surfaces. To allow the extra time needed for this enhanced cleaning protocol, we will ensure a minimum of 24 hours between reservations.

We recognize these are unsettling times and want you to know that the safety and well-being of our guests and the entire Casa de Cooper team is our top priority. Whether you are traveling now or in the future, we look forward to welcoming you to our little piece of paradise!

Noel P., San Francisco, CA

Get sick, get Ghosted
I got sick, woke up with 104 fever 4 days before my stay and had to go to the hospital. I messaged the host to advise him immediately that I missed my flight and had to cancel hoping to get a voucher or reschedule. I never heard anything. Then a day prior someone from the resort who represents him asked me how my stay was, at which time I reiterated that I was not even in the country, didn’t make it on my trip, and I advise that representative that had messaged the host. The respond I got was, per policy there’s no refund. Of course. That’s a typical response for someone who’s happy to just accept funds and wait for another renter to come along, easy money. The distance between them and I as I also own rental property and my goal isn’t just to get a payment. It’s 100% satisfaction and longevity through repeat business and referrals, but not everyone works like that.

If you are considering booking Casa de Cooper in San Juan del Sur , you have come across the best place! Do not hesitate. We loved our stay and could not have been happier with the beautiful house, the staff, the owners (great communication and went out of their way to help us and our stay in the area with answers and advice) , the pools and the location. We drove to a different beach every day and walked to town most evenings for dinner. It was perfect! We will most definitely be returning to Casa de Cooper!

Amazing Nica Trip
let me start by saying if I could give 10 stars for our visit to Casa Cooper I would we arrived after a trip across the Costa Rica - Nicaragua border. Which is an experience everyone should have. 4 of the 6 in our party arrived early hoping we didn't have to wait to long. George and Gabriel where right there to meet Us. We had a very warm welcome from both. George walked us through the property with full details on how everything worked. We had the 3 bedroom unit which was just as beautiful as the pictures on the site. Gabriel was the most attentive property manager I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. He was prompt with any of our request, which were not many as George has this figured out. There really wasn't anything we needed. one call to Gabriel and he was right there. George had recommended us to have dinner cooked by his house chef. We planned 2 dinners with Kenny. I have to say they were exceptional and the service and stories were amazing I would highly recommend at least one meal in your beautiful Casa cooked by Kenny and his team. We spent 11 days at Casa Cooper and we were not disappointed at all. The Pelican Eye resort was just as beautiful. Every Sunset was enjoyed by our party of 6 every evening from either the Pool or our own private balcony. We loved the town of San Juan Del Sur. We were lucky enough to have George join us a couple of times for cocktails and stores. He invited us to join him for dinner at his favorite spot - The Black Monkey. If you have a vehicle of your own I highly recommend a visit to this restaurant. The property is beautiful and the food delicious. George also has connections with a cigar factory in Granada, he made arrangements for us to visit. 2 of our guest are getting married this year and he had custom bands made for 40 cigars ( small order for custom) with their names and wedding date on them. Way above and beyond expectations. The visit to the Cigar factory was also a pleasure. They staff were welcoming and informative. Our Departure was seamless. George had made arrangement for all 3 couples to have transportation to our different destinations as we were going in different directions at the end of our stay. We cant THANK George and Gabriel enough for making our stay a very memorable one. WE will be returning. Note: Arriving via Liberia George will make arrangements for transport across the border. Highly recommended.

great place to stay!
We rented 2 bedrooms of the villa and were pleasantly surprised at the accommodations. Everything was spotless! The property manager, Gabriel, lives close by and took care of every detail of our visit. We declined the daily housekeeping and washed our own dishes. We also found the plunge pool to be a great gathering place in the heat of the day..... which is ALL day. We would love to return again. Thanks!

Fabulous Vila with a great view
My family and I (kids are 9 and 11) stayed here for 5 nights here in March and loved it. We took the 2 bedroom option which gave us a massive space over 2 floors. We loved the full kitchen and the view and while we didn't use the plunge pool we did use the family infinity pool a 5 min walk away every day. Only negative is the hike uphill from the town, but we found taxis easy to come by.

Casa Cooper is luxury a stone's throw from San Juan town
Myself, husband and two friends stayed at Casa Cooper in June. The house was beautiful with great design features throughout. It was so spacious and had all the modern things you need. It is a short walk downhill to San Juan town. This house gives you all the comforts while still being close to the action. It also has all the amenities of the pelican eyes resort which was great for using the pool, restaurant and bar when we wanted to stay closer to home. Gabriel the manager was so helpful with any questions we had about the area. I would highly recommend Casa Cooper to anyone looking to vacation in the area.

A beautiful and upscale place to stay in San Juan Del Sur
Casa de Cooper is a great place to stay in San Juan Del Sur. It's location is very convenient to town but you sit above it with beautiful views of the ocean and valley. The home itself is very nicely appointed and we did not have anything we needed that was not provided. The showers deliver consistent hot water, the generator insured that we did not lose power all the time, and the beds were really comfortable. George was an absolute pleasure to work with and Gabriel (the house manager) was attentive and helpful whenever we needed him. Pelican Eyes is a great destination and we will return to Casa De Cooper! I would recommend a car to get to town and the northern beaches.

Fun at the top
Casa Cooper is a great place to be. I have just returned from a 3 week stay at the house and can report that is is a wonderful experience. While San Juan Del Sur is quite the crusty place, Casa Cooper is just the opposite...it is clean, quiet, efficient and there are terrific views out of every window. It is also at the top of the hill, so the noise and the confusion of the town are nonexistent. If you want to live in a deluxe environment while having all the fun of San Juan Del Sur, Casa Cooper should be your selection..
