**1 Million-Dollar View, Unparalleled Hospitality**Aracari’s Nest delivers on its million-dollar view, but Shane and Katy’s hospitality made our honeymoon stay unforgettable. The Nest itself is private, comfortable, thoughtfully equipped, and designed to make the surrounding nature the star. The patio became our favorite place to enjoy coffee, watch wildlife, and take in the views. After hiking in Corcovado, the excellent AC made returning home wonderful.Shane and Katy welcomed us with fresh flowers, balloons, and towel animals, an incredibly thoughtful gesture in such a remote location. We also arrived after getting a flat tire and having to use our spare. Shane offered to take our full-size tire to be patched, returned it repaired, and refused payment.Katy was equally thoughtful. Around 6:30 each morning, she placed bananas along the patio beam, drawing colorful birds and lizards right outside the Nest. Watching them gather became one of our favorite parts of the stay.They also arranged meal deliveries and our private boat charter, even helping adjust the usual lunch plans to suit us. The location is secluded, so getting there is part of the adventure, but once you arrive, the outside world feels far away and nature feels incredibly close.We came as guests of Shane and Katy but genuinely felt we left as members of their family. If you want privacy, breathtaking beauty, and extraordinary hospitality on the Osa Peninsula, the Aracari Nest is truly special.
