A dream comes true

A property that lives up to and exceeds every feature, comfort and amenity. We will be back at first opportunity. While situated up the hill from the main coast road, it remains in walking distance to restaurants, grocery stores, even a lovely waterfall. The birds wake us every morning, the howlers do their thing whenever they want, and we did too. From midnight swims in the large pool between the house and the rancho, to work from home on the delightful patio in the dark at a cool 4:00 am with no bug bites (a little Off is handy for about a half hour at dawn and again at sunset), to local beaches, we had all the free time and activity we wanted and spent most of it enjoying this beautiful home and our stay. The owners are delightful and Kenny the house manager an instant "buddy" we could count on for anything. I wouldn't change a thing in the furnishings, and everything worked, including the boogie boards. We met two of the neighbors and they too were gracious and great sources of local information. The wifi at the house and throughout the property is backed up with a power supply that saw me through quite a few momentary power outages without blinking. This place is a keeper. We'll be back.

Beautiful property

The house and grounds were very nice. We thought the beds were awesome. Most of our time at the house was spent under the pavilion and in the pool. All the areas were supplied well with dishes, utensils and glassware. The property manager communicated well with us and was prompt. We did lose water one night and we notified him and he took care of it promptly. The bedrooms are the only areas that are air conditioned so the kitchen area and living room were too warm to spend a whole lot of time in. However, most of our time was spent outside by the pool, visiting the beaches, going to waterfalls, or out to eat rather than indoors. The house was convenient to get groceries, travel to the beach, visit restaurants, etc.

great for family or couples

Very nice property with large lot. Room to spread out with additional small house with private bathroom and shower. Pool was amazing with outdoor shower and a lot of space to hang chill outside. Very quit and peaceful property. Only complaint is how hot the kitchen and living area get. Our family had to either use the pool to cool down or hang out in a back bedroom that had AC. Also the lighting in the main room is poor. If AC were added to the main living area and lighting was improved I would give this a 10/10. would definitely stay here again.

Bird watchers paradise

My little family stayed in this gem for 3 weeks this past July, and it was fantastic. The grounds are gorgeous, the pool refreshing, and the house extremely spacious. The property manager, Kenny, was very attentive to all of our questions and needs, and his crew kept the pool and garden well tended throughout our stay. The house is located in a nice neighborhood, and has a little supermarket a short drive away as well as several restaurants. There is a ton of wildlife, particularly tons of birds that frequent the property. A bird watchers paradise, for sure!

Nice and convenient

Nice location and close to just about everything one would need. Walk to the Gatos Loco restaurant or the bakery next door. Yard and pool are fantastic. Indoor might be a little dated but perfectly fine and clean. WIFI worked fine. Well stocked kitchen. There is a lot of construction going on in the area, and we had a lot of noise a couple of mornings at 7:00am next door lasting all morning. Otherwise very quiet. When you book any home in the area ask if there is a construction project going on next door. The owner may be totally unaware so certainly not their fault. Bedrooms had AC, and it would be nice if the whole house had AC because it was very hot when we were there in March. Good thing there were ceiling fans and a pool. Would book here again.

About the host

Hosted by Amber Morse

We have been married for 26 years and have 4 daughters with 10 grandchildren. We love to travel and chose Costa Rica as our retirement home away from home. We also enjoy surfing and waterfall jumping. Our children and grandchildren love coming to CR and sharing Pura Vida with us.

Why they chose this property

The gardens are beautiful and full of color. There are numerous fruit producing trees for year round tasting. Newly paved main road conveniently cuts drive time in half to access groceries, restaurants, beaches, etc. in town. The house is very well maintained, clean and comfortable just like home. It is perfect for the young and gently seasoned family members and all of those in between to enjoy all amenities. Only a few wide, gentle steps separate you from the pool. You can see from the house all the way to the back of the property and admire the beautiful mountain ridge views.

What makes this property unique

While other rentals make you feel like you are on a postage stamp, our property is a flat acre which gives you the space to explore and enjoy. The openness of the layout allows a nice breeze in the outdoor living spaces. The rancho is also the perfect place to watch the thunder and lightening storms when the rains come. Beautiful and peaceful best describes our home.
