About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

A tranquil Balinese-inspired jungle oasis

This home is truly an oasis where you will be surrounded by the jungle with daily visits from toucans, parrots, and hummingbirds while enjoying cool breezes blowing off the Pacific in the distance. Enjoying nature at this elevation allows you to be outside from the Howler monkey wake up call to the front row seats at your private sunset evening show over the ocean. You can play at the ocean during the day and enjoy a cool mountain village escape at night.

Sitting on over 2-acres, this Bali-inspired compound features the main house, two detached guest casitas, an open air rancho, and enclosed bodega with a brand new washer and dryer, a private outdoor zen garden with a rain shower & soaking tub, a gas fire pit, and an infinity pool.

The main house and rancho have high-speed fiber optic Wifi. We have 2 electric hot water heaters so that multiple showers & a hot bubble bath can be taken at once without any fear of running out of hot water for those long showers.

Comfortable living spaces with high-quality finishes and teak furniture throughout. The property was designed to have the natural breezes travel through the living areas at this higher elevation and therefore is not air conditioned, but ceiling fans are installed throughout all of the sleeping spaces and outdoor rancho when desired. Eeeeek; no air condition !?!? We know, we are those people too and would absolutely have it if we were even slightly uncomfortable, but it is truly not needed and not used by anyone at this elevation.

The spacious outdoor, covered rancho is the perfect place to watch the 5:00am morning rush hour traffic of the toucans and parrots while relaxing in a rocking chair with your morning Costa Rican Coffee. Consider a morning float in the pool, a bubble bath in the zen garden, a dip in one of the many private waterfalls in our area, book a massage at the house, or order up a breakfast detox drink to start your day.

This property is ideal for 1-3 couples wishing to travel together (or a family with older kids). Although we love children, the layout of this home is very private having the 2 detached casitas off of the main house making this a better fit for adults. Teens would likely feel comfortable with their own space, but parents might not feel comfortable with little ones in a detached space. We recommend 16+, but please talk to us about your children and their ages so we can help you decide if this is a good layout for your younger children.

From San Jose Airport, we are 4 hours
From Quepos airport, we are 1 hour
From the coast, we are 30 minutes (Dominical Beach being the closest)
From an abundance of waterfalls, we are the bullseye
From the 2nd largest city in Costa Rica, we are 30 minutes (San Isidro)

Tranquil getaway

If your looking for an amazing property this is the place! Very picturesque with amazing wildlife right from the sitting area. We enjoyed our time there and found everything we needed! Small store not far away. The property manager Carolina was amazing and helped us with any question we had. We enjoyed the pool and viewing deck and the house had a well appointed kitchen. Plenty of room for everyone. Hope to be back again soon!

Amazing sunsets!

Most stunning sunsets I've ever seen! The set-up allowed for privacy between couples and the common areas were great for socialization. The fire pit was perfect for the cooler nights. Very comfortable bed and pillows. The on-site washer and dryer were an added bonus. Will definitely be back!
