Note: There are 12 Premier Host properties out of the 400 VRBO properties In Nosara and Casa de Memphis I & II are two of the twelve. We were awarded this award by VRBO for our actions during the Covid-19 upheaval. How did we earn this award? Well quite frankly we refunded everyone 100% of any and all funds regardless of our own refund policy. We did not have to do this but we did because it was the right thing to do. Most in fact did not. You can rent with assurance with Casa de Memphis and we have over $100,000USD in refunds to prove it.
Casa de Memphis II is located at the little known north entrance to Playa Pelada where the Nosara River meets the Pacific Ocean. (Note: There are two Casa de Memphis’,I & II. They are located just around the corner from one another.) This private beach house is part of a collection of 8 private houses surrounded by the beach on one side and the ostional wildlife refuge on the other. There is only one road in or out and few people are aware that this section exist. This location is very private yet still very convenient to the beach, restaurants, grocery stores and everything else the community of Nosara has to offer.
The location is what makes this small community so special. With the ocean on one side, the Ostional wildlife area on the other and the Nosara River meets the Pacific Ocean near by, the area is a Mecca for wildlife. Because of the peaceful coexistence between the home owners and the natural surroundings, the wildlife literally comes to the door of the house. If you are looking for private seclusion surrounded by peace and quiet, this is it. That is until a flock of parrots land in the tree above and the neighborhood monkey troop join in, then it gets a little noisy, but they were there first.
The house is a one minute walk to the beach. Constructed in the style of the surrounding community; this one story two bedroom house is set up for the traveling family. One bedroom has a full size bed and the other has two set of custom made punk beds. Both bedrooms have private baths with walk in showers. There is a twin bed in the main room up in the loft. There is also a separate, private one bedroom cabina with its own private bathroom and garden that is only accessed by a private bridge over a stream. Together the two will sleep 8 people. Both the house and the cabina are fully air conditioned, and they have the amenities of home including, private pool, dishwasher that actually works, beach towels, high speed wireless internet, fully equipped kitchen, outdoor grill, monitored alarm system and more. The house and cabina are only rented out together, never separately. Note: the kitchen was completely torn out and remodeled in late 2020.
Important: The house has a water storage system that will supply all of your water needs when local water company is forced to shut off the entire water system in times of draught during the evening hours. This usually happens around 16:00 and is not turned back on until the system fills back up the next morning. This is a big issue to most of the other houses that do not have this system. Casa de Memphis guest will never even know it!
Because the house sits at the end of a road there is no through traffic, noise or the associated dust commonly found elsewhere.
Security: Costa Ricans are by nature a very passive people. That said petty theft is an on going issue. Nothing neutralizes this issue more than common since. CdM I & II have monitored alarm systems and 400 pounds safes bolted to the floor. No other house available for rent has this level of security.
Tired of cooking? We can arrange for a private chef to do all of the shopping, come to the house and prepare the menu of your choice at a mere fraction of what dinning out would be. This is the best bargain in Nosara and the wife of the owner of the house takes full advantage of this. Imagine, someone comes to the house at 17:00 (5PM), cleans, prepares dinner, cleans up afterwards and departs by 20:00 (8PM). Cost: $30 plus groceries. Tell us what you want and we will make it happen.
NOTE: Nosara, like many other beach communities, is experiencing a building boom. The northern end of Playa Pelada, where the house is located, is the only location free from the early morning construction noise, truck traffic and the associated dust. Dust is a serious issue from December to May. While there is very little traffic in front of the house we still apply molasses to the road out front to seal off the dust. Place smells like pancakes.
