Staying at Casa Bella was a last minute trip and Jay was so great as we only gave him a one day notice! Our venture from Nicaragua to Costa Rica took us much longer than expected and Wendy was so considerate and kind as she waited until 11pm for our arrival! The house is gorgeous and everything you could need for a relaxing time in Costa Rica. Jay & Wendy had left drinks, fruits, fresh eggs and bread for our stay along with great recommendations from eating out to daily activities and places to explore. Wendy was so attentive and helpful during our stay and went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and happy. The home was incredible. For starters, the bedrooms were clean and full of little necessities from towels to shampoo and soaps. The bed was insanely comfortable and soft as a cloud. The upper deck area was perfect for relaxing and enjoying some beautiful mountain views with a delicious cup of coffee in the early morning. An extra plus was a good selection of DVDs to watch during our stay! Amongst Jays recommendations, I would also recommend eating at La Finca. Chris, the owner, was so kind and as a New Yorker I don't think I've eaten a more amazing thin crust pizza than I've had here! I recommend the Vegetarian!

Accurate description. Host provided all the required information in writing and was very attentive to our needs. Great host.

Jay was a great host. We had a warm welcome with fruits, beer, wine and everything for the breakfast. Jay has a book saying that everything we need to know to have a great stay in the area. We really appreciate and want to say thanks for everything. See you a next time. Mike

Jay was quick to respond to all our pre-stay queries and his friend Christian couldn't have been more helpful in getting us settled in. The house was beautiful and the amenities were so appreciated! Stocked fridge, great bath products an pdx the most comfortable beds in Costa Rica. Thanks Jay and Christian!

Jay is very helpful. He left food for us on arrival and was helpful in getting us back on track for the airport when we were somewhat lost on the way back; SIM quite as we were driving. Casa Bella has views to die for. It is almost at the top of a housign development on a mountainside. Do not drink and drive here. The roads up are narrow and if you suffer from an aversion to heights, you will need to steel yourself for each trip; everything has its price. The sliding doors on the bedrooms need some repair to fit them into the frames. At night, had we not plugged some of the gaps, insects would have entered, attracted by the lights. And back to insects, again. Bugs are everywhere in Costa Rica. Lots of them. Mosquitos especailly. Not Jay's fault. It just makes it difficult sit outside, especailly when night falls, as they are attracted to the lights. This placehas lots of space. Loved the two bedrooms and ensuite baths. 4 people could stay here comfortably. 6 would be a stretch but not out of the question. You are close to town, whihc has lots of great restaurants and only 30mins from San Jose and 60 to the Pacific. You can hit so many spots from here that we regret not spending more time. @ $75 per night this place is great value. It could command more with some minor updates.

Het huis / woning heeft een uitstekende ligging op een berg met een terras vanwaar u een prachtig uitzicht. Het appartement was heel cool met een grote open lucht woonkamer en 2 ruime slaapkamers. De keuken was voorzien van eten ..! Last Christian, een vriend van de eigenaar, verwelkomde ons op een vriendelijke manier, hoewel we laat aankwamen. Genoten van ons korte verblijf!

Jay's house is amazing with a beautiful view of the whole cities from up the hills on the terrace. All the rooms are really large and nicely designed. The beds were really cosy. Jay was very helpful, he left us a cell phone were we could contact him, and whenever we needed something he was very prompt. He also organized us a trip to Poas volcano and la paz gardens. I recommend this place!

У нас было замечательное пребывание в этом роскошной квартире. Большие номера, красивая кухня под открытым небом, потрясающие виды. Джей большим войском, приглашая нас с фруктами, кофе и т.д. Квартира расположена рядом с аэропортом (30 минут езды) и, следовательно, очень удобно, если вы направляетесь в аэропорт рано (или опоздание).

樹屋酒店在叢林中的美麗景色 - 許多動物包括在內。由於它在哥斯達黎加天黑早,你必須調整的事實,一旦你進去變淺,甚至有些動物前來參觀。不幸的是,我們有一些運氣不好的零星蚊子的夜晚......托馬斯慷慨,而是直接關係到我們新的蚊帳。 作為主持人,他是真正偉大的,向我們展示了在其他之中的海灘延伸我們在那裡(約30分鐘步行路程)整天自己。提及也應該是一個漂亮的游泳池,這是我們經常使用的冷卻。

Beautiful and peaceful. Wonderful property. Wake up to the sounds of the howler monkeys and have the white face monkeys watch you eat on the porch. Highly recommended.

Thomas and Lili were fantastic hosts. My boyfriend and I stayed in the treehouse and it did not disappoint. Within the first 20 minutes of arriving we saw a sloth and a monkey, but little did we know how much more there was to come. Twice daily we were greeted by a hoard of either white faced or squirrel monkeys jumping around on the treehouse and playing on our porch. It was so much fun! The treehouse is very nice for somebody wanting to experience Costa Rican flora and fauna. You can walk to and from downtown Quepos, but it is definitely a trek on the way back up. Not enough to deter us from walking it everyday, but it's very easy and cheap to get a taxi. As for Thomas's hospitality, it was above and beyond. He's extremely nice, helpful, and timely. He even picked us up from the Quepos airport and organized all of our activities (which were all amazing, I would take Thomas's recommendations any day). We are looking forward to the day we get to go back!! Thank you, Thomas!!

I can't say enough positive things about my stay at the treehouse. The location creates the feeling that you are secluded deep inside the middle of the jungle. We were surrounded by more wildlife than when we visited Manuel Antonio National Park! But in actuality it is very conveniently located - a 10 minute walk to town and a 10 second walk to the pool :) It is also a quick cab or bus ride to the beautiful beaches of Manuel Antonio. Our porch received daily visits from squirrel and capuchin monkeys along with a variety of colorful birds, lizards, and iguanas. We didn't get a chance to meet Lili but Thomas and Angie were very helpful and professional. I can't wait for my next visit!

WOW! Mehr ist dazu nicht zu sagen. Das Baumhaus ist unser Highlight auf unserer Reise gewesen. Schon am ersten Morgen sind wir gegen 5 Uhr von einer Horde Kapuzineraffen geweckt und nur wenig später kamen circa 20 Totenkopfäffchen und spielten auf unsrem Balkon. So toll!!! Die volle Vielfalt in seiner natürlichen Umgebung. Nebenbei ist das Baumhaus komplett ausgestattet! Es gab nichts, was wir vermisst haben und es gab sogar eine Waschmaschine! Der Pool erfrischt zwischendurch. Grundlegend ist das Baumhaus schwer zu finden, aber Thomas tut alles, dafür dass man ankommt. Ein höher gelegendes Auto ist jedoch hilfreich...aber das würde ich eh jedem Costa Rica Besucher empfehlen. Thomas gab viele Auskünfte. Viele Touren wären möglich gewesen. Quepos ist relativ klein und auch der Michael Antonio Nationalpark hat uns nicht überzeugt. Den Regenwald und seine Tiere hatten wir auch vor der Baumhaustür und das ohne andere Touristen!

This places is booked out a year in advance for a reason. Awesome host. Stellar view. Great pool. Really solid kitchenette and a cool grill on the patio... What's not to love.

The Tree house, Gardens and all that I read about the area are true. I must admit I did have expectations; every one them exceeded what I thought :). Sloths, White faced Monkeys, Howlers and Squirrel monkeys visited us almost daily on our porch! Chris and I met Thomas the morning after we arrived. He welcomed us to our first day and helped us with our questions and concerns. He also made a booking for my massage, which was absolutely divine; Lilly worked her magic and all my travel kinks melted away! Thomas also booked a Kayak Tour in the Mangroves for us. The tour guide, Henry, was fabulous; very knowledgeable and came well prepared for the weather. It rained while we were out but Chris and I loved it - it was so serene all the animals came out to enjoy the crispness after the rain. I highly recommend booking a few nights at the tree house- it was a magical experience!

My boyfriend and I booked this amazing treehouse for a week. We had a great experience staying busy in the mornings and winding down at the house later in the day. Thomas was very helpful and pleasant he even helped us book a tour the night before. One thing I would recommend is renting a vehicle or getting a prepaid phone during your stay to call cabs. We would walk into town in the morning and would take a cab back for four or five dollars. The walk is fine but the road can be very slick when raining and we would be pretty exhausted by the time we made it into town. We took the bus to Manuel Antonio and enjoyed the beautiful beaches! We walked through the Manuel Antonio Park expecting a narrow, lengthy trail but it was wide, short and and flip flop friendly which was perfect for the beautifully beach at the end of the trail. We overall enjoyed the experience in Quepos hitting up the supermarkets and the farmer's market on Saturday. We highly recommend it! Oh and bug spray is a must!

一個字 - 令人驚嘆!

Nous avons apprécié chaque minute de notre séjour de détente à la villa! Raj a fourni beaucoup de bons conseils sur les endroits à visiter le long du chemin, des lieux dans la région à visiter, ainsi que d'une carte détaillée avec des photos sur la façon de trouver la villa. La villa est encore plus jolie que sur les photos! Pose de la piscine toute la journée, en regardant le ferry passer, et de voir les beaux oiseaux faits pendant une semaine plus relaxant! Nous avons rencontré plusieurs des voisins merveilleux, y compris la propriété des gestionnaires / développeurs et ont même été invités à un dîner de quartier avec des aliments locaux étonnants et un groupe de mariachis! Ne pas suremballage! Vous n'avez pas besoin d'une valise pleine de vêtements, il suffit de retourner flops, chaussures d'eau ou de type Teva sandale à pied de la plage et une paire de shorts et un sarong au salon de la piscine po Il est un merveilleux épicerie sur place avec des produits frais produire en arrivant le jeudi. Nous avons grillé crevettes locale et poulet frais sur le barbecue en plein air, fait pichets de boissons tropicales et apprécié la musique relaxante de nos iPhones dans tout le système de haut-parleurs maison tous les jours. Un soir, nous avons placé des bougies tout autour du bord de la piscine et nous avons apprécié une soirée nager. La plage privée est un 3 minutes à pied et il est beau! Je l'ai appelé plage de Shell, car il n'est pas du sable, il est tout petits coquillages concassés et décoratifs, tout simplement magnifique! Nous reviendrons à cette villa! Merci Raj et tout le monde à la Roma Del Mar!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Surf Vista Villas. We had the Sunset Reef villa on the second floor. The view of the Pacific Ocean is truly breathtaking. We could not get enough of the view. The sunsets were spectacular. Andy was always available for help or advice. We have no complaints about our accommodations at all. The road up to the villas is a typical Nicoya peninsula road and a bit intimidating to drive at first. We did not climb the hill on foot. Fortunately, we had a 4 wheel drive to get us up and down. The nearby beaches of Santa Teresa, Playa Hermosa and Playa Manzanillo were wonderful. We rented a Quad for one day and drove up to Playa Coyote, driving for perhaps 6 miles on the beach, not a soul around us. There are lots of restaurants and grocery store in Santa Teresa and Mal Pais as well as an ATM. A great, restful stay. Thanks, Andy David M Toronto, ON

The Santa Teresa Surf Vista Villas were absolutely perfect. It's hard to imagine how it could possibly be more beautiful and picturesque than the photos show, but it truly is! The views are out of this world, and it is the perfect way to experience both the jungle and ocean vibes of Costa. We even saw a family of monkeys right from our room! Andrew was a super awesome guy and was able to give us plenty of helpful recommendations, and even helped us arrange a shuttle back to San Jose. The rooms are also extremely spacious and private. Could not have been a more perfect stay. Thanks again Andrew! PS- the hill is really not even close to as bad as some people made it seem- totally walkable and actually quite enjoyable :)

The most amazing experience! The surf vista villas is the best place in Santa Teresa and Andy was super helpful in getting out there from San Jose with our 4x4. We can't wait to go back and will most definitely be staying there when we return.

冲浪Vista的别墅是美好的。我强烈推荐它。房子很漂亮,和平和良好的维护;工作人员很友好,乐于助人,有求必应。其他的客人都非常甜蜜,并认为不能被打败!我们喜欢的位置 - 有点不闹的沸沸扬扬的,只有BYT步行10分钟到最近的杂货店和餐馆(纯碱),并在沙滩上步行20分钟到市中心的心脏。步行到海洋中10分钟。是的,有一个大山走上去的小屋 - 你可能想要一辆车,如果你有小孩或不喜欢走的小山。我们走进它,每天2-4次,这是罚款。我有钢铁般的包子现在;)谢谢安迪,胡安,胡安和工作人员在冲浪别墅特斯休息!

Absoluut fantastisch. We waren allemaal zo blij bij Surf Vista Villas. Het uitzicht, de kamers, de vrienden die we maakten, en vooral onze gastheren Andy en Cota waren allemaal geweldig. We zullen terug in de toekomst. Ik kan bijna garanderen dat.

这个地方是惊人的!优越的地理位置,方便前往美丽的海滩/冲浪。圣特雷莎是一个真棒海滩小镇拥有轻松友好的氛围。与业主(安德鲁)沟通很容易,使保留的简单。酒店内的物业经理(刘德华)是优秀的和她的两个友善的狗是可爱。我们在晚上迟到了(登记入住后好),但通过对来自安迪水池边白板一个不错的消息,被招呼,也没有问题找到我们的房间。我肯定会推荐住在这里,并会再次访问!

Great experience. Amazing views! A few bugs, but definitely worth it. The space is cool, a really nice studio with three beds and a good size kitchen.

这是留在哥斯达黎加如果你正在寻找走出成一个小海滩小镇,一个真棒的地方。很多在Santa Teresa友好的人民。有相当多的好地方吃太多。冲浪Vista的别墅是伟大的。

My wife and I chose "Mi Kiva" firstly because it was close to San Jose Airport and secondly because we were attracted by its elegance and we were happy with both points. The MapQuest directions got us to the car rental return (Adobe) in twenty minutes during rush hour as the whole way is on back roads that are paved and sign posted every now and then for the airport. Also, there is a gas station on the left, right before the main road where the rental companies are. However, it is far enough away from SJO that the tranquility of the property is not interrupted by arriving and leaving aircraft. The gardens around the house are sumptuous and a good spot to relax. There is a bit of a library in the sitting room that includes tour guide books and excellent birds of Costa Rica books. Although Gerald was in the States when we were there, the security guard called him and we were able to speak with him and he made us feel welcome and answered any questions we had about the area. "Mi Kiva" is a big house with extensive grounds. I would definitely consider going back there as either a first or last stop. I think it would be even better to be there in a party of six to take advantage of the space and all that is provided. Thanks Gerald!

This place is quite magical. Large, spacious and artfully furnished, with breath taking gardens that back up to jungle and sounds of water fall and stream. I give rave review.

一个美丽的地方,与周围的每一个角落的惊喜体验。

Magisch Ja. Lebt bis zu den bisherigen Bewertungen und Fotos? Ja. Es ist ein wirklich wundervoller Ort und wir haben unseren Aufenthalt geliebt. Das Haus und die Gärten sind wunderschön und es liegt in einer Berglage im Central Valley. Wir besuchten Poas Vulkan Park und nahm die Britt Kaffee Tour und machte eine Cloudforest Zipline alle innerhalb einer Stunde Fahrten des Hauses. Die Wanderung zum Warterfall hinter dem Haus war so cool! Wir fanden Lebensmittel einkaufen ein bisschen eine Herausforderung als Anfragen für Richtungen zu einem Supermercado führte zu einigen sehr interessante Ergebnisse! Aber Einheimische sind freundlich und hilfsbereit, wenn man Spanisch spricht. Wir hoffen, dass wir eines Tages wieder besuchen werden. Danke Gerald !!!!

整个属性是华丽,地板到天花板。这是少有的情况下倒伏成为吸引力之一。无法推荐此房产的更多的人寻找到附近逗留圣何塞的地方。

We had a great time! Wished we stayed for longer. The place was really easy to get to if you have "waze" the app. Gardens are amazing. Very well kept.

Mi Kiva是一个神奇的地方,房子是一座建筑瑰宝,花园完美无瑕。如果您还想出去,那里有很好的餐厅,Heredia市中心距离酒店有25分钟的路程。 我最喜欢的时刻坐在阳台上享受日落,在带烟囱的客厅里喝了一杯葡萄酒,并沿着瀑布走去。 我迫不及待地回来了!

Es un beutifull casa para relajarse! Mejor si llevas un coche o suministros que tienen una estancia fantástica. Es un gran lugar con un gran anfitrión!

Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt in Phils kleine Oase in den Hügeln außerhalb von San Jose versteckt. Der Raum war einfach perfekt und die Anlagen waren schön und macht Spaß zu erkunden. Phil war eine tolle und herzliche Gastgeber, der mir und meinem Partner, um einige der besten Kaffee, den ich je gegessen habe, ein hausgemachtes Frühstück und tolle Gespräche behandelt! Wir genossen unseren Aufenthalt und empfehlen dieses einzigartigen Ort für alle Besucher Costa Rica. Wir hoffen, dass es irgendwann bald mehr von San Isidro erkunden und verbringen mehr Zeit einen Kaffee zu trinken und entspannt zu Phil-Boutique Kaffee Ranch zurück zu machen. Pura vida!

The search is over!! This place is amazing at all levels. This is a jewel for people looking to get away. We arrived at the coffee ranch as soon as we touched down and fell in love instantly. The breathtaking view of the mountains and perfect gardens will make you forget about all your worries. The meditation gardens and coffee ranch have been the highlight of our trip (after going to multiple parks and rainforests). Must take his kind advice. We went ziplining and checked out the waterfalls where he suggested and he did not let us down. The room is much bigger than the pictures and super confortable. Dogs are the friendliest and very well behaved. Will recommend to all my friends!

Great place! Phil ist ein sehr angenehmer Gastgeber. Ein Besuch seiner Ranch ist sehr zu empfehlen.

Phil was nothing short of a fantastic host! We will most definitely recommend his house as a first stop for any Costa Rican tour. He was so welcoming making my boyfriend and I feel like we were in a home away from home. The coffee garden and meditation gardens were gorgeous, impeccable, superb. The small town of San Isidro was very charming. We joined Phil on his Sunday outing to la feria and that was a great way to be introduced to everyday culture and some great eats. The mango was delicious, even though it was out of season, it was probably the best mango I've eaten. Ever! If you go, try what we call the "snot tea", you may not regret the taste, but the consistency was interesting! Lol! Here is my list of advice: If you follow all of Phil's directions, you will not get lost, but be sure to follow them to a T! We didn't and we got a little lost. Once we oriented ourselves at the Plaza, it was easy to follow the directions from the single light on the square. Try his homegrown coffee, go to Braulio Carrillo and ride the zip line (we saw a sloth, which was my highlight of the trip!) Enjoy the culture, try a cerveza con hielo, speak to a friendly local who doesn't know your language just as much as you don't know theirs. Thank you Phil!!!!

Amazing place! Beautiful tranquil coffee farm with amazing gardens, a perfect end to our trip. Phil is a gracious host and we feel lucky to have met him. The cottage is very cozy and clean - our only regret is that we didn't stay longer! Take at least a couple nights here if you can, you won't regret it.

Aunque el anfitrión era razonablemente atento, no nos sentimos cómodos en alojarse aquí. Sin embargo, su situación podría ser diferente. Así que nos hemos aislado las razones por las que usted puede decidir por ti mismo. No te alojes aquí si: # 1. No te alojes aquí si ... que quiere o necesita pasar cualquier cantidad de tiempo en la capital (San José). # 2. No te alojes aquí si ... quieres acceder a tu lugar siempre que lo desee. Explicación para el # 3: A pesar de que hace publicidad de este lugar para estar en San José, en realidad es en Heredia. Un viaje en taxi en 2012 a la capital de este lugar es un buen $ 30 USD. Eso significa que una ida y vuelta resulta ser más caro que su estancia real. Para ello, simplemente encontrar un lugar que es en realidad en San José. Explicación para # 2: El anfitrión no nos ofrecen una llave o cualquier otra forma de acceso a la propiedad, que significaba que teníamos que confiar en su ser allí cuando volvimos. Y sin un teléfono celular local para ponerse en contacto con él, se puede imaginar lo frustrante que era. Nuestro consejo: estancia lejos.

Нам очень понравилось наше пребывание в "Каса-де-дус-Leons" с Филом. Он был очень гостеприимным и огромное количество информации о Коста-Рике и его культуры. Это было интересно услышать его рассказы по нашему прибытию над чашками жареного кофе и местного Tico торта фунта его сада (конфетка!). В кофе основания сада были ошеломляющими на закате и в равной степени волшебный ночью, когда мы смотрели светлячков из сада медитации и скамьи поисках. Мы пошли в ужин в местном ресторане под названием Лос-Potreros и имел некоторые удивительные севиче за рекомендации Фила. Мы добрались до места через очень быстрой езды на такси вокруг 7 вечера в субботу ночью, и к тому времени, когда мы уехали была линия из двери и караоке только начиналась - очень интересные люди, смотрящие и еду по умеренной цене. Огни Сан-Хосе ночью были также великолепны, чтобы увидеть с холмов его ранчо, и мы даже видели фейерверк! Мы только останавливались 1 ночь, потому что мы приехали из Quepos и имел ранний рейс из Сан-Хосе на следующее утро. Фил был достаточно любезен, чтобы позвонить нам такси в ночь перед, что вез нас на 25-мин езды в светлое аэропорта и ранний в 4:30. Мы определенно рекомендовали бы останавливаться в кофе ранчо - просто убедитесь, что, если вы прибываете на такси взять красный местное такси. Давайте просто скажем, у нас не было удачи с таксистом в аэропорту, который предложил нам прокатиться после высадки от полета Sansa. Убедитесь, что вы поздороваться с его доброжелательными собаками тоже! Pura Vida!

Atem Blick den ganzen Weg um, gemütliche Zimmer, ausgezeichneten Kaffee, nehmen und es gibt Bananen, Orangen, Mandarinen und Guave auf dem Grundstück !!! Nehmen Sie seinen Rat und kommen im Laufe des Tages, GPS nicht so gut funktioniert und nicht, wo in ganz Costa Rica hat Straßenschilder, wir kamen in der Nacht und Phil kam und uns innerhalb von Minuten, weil wir einen falschen Weg eingeschlagen, ein paar genommen hatte km vom Hotel entfernt Phil ist ein toller Gastgeber, sehr gut informiert über die Umgebung und vor allem bei Bewusstsein.

My family and I spent four nights at the Pura Vida lodge and we were sorry to leave it. It is a beautiful retreat with amazing views and wonderful flora and fauna all around. Gersan - the caretaker was very welcoming and helpful. We did go on his boat tour and it is absolutely recommended - a truly enjoyable and memorable experience - so much more authentic than a tour Our favorite place to go while we stayed was the Tilapia Cascades in Ojachal - (URL HIDDEN) The surrounding area (Ojachal - Coronada) is very peaceful and laidback. It is not overrun with tourists and businesses catering to tourists like some of the more popular destinations. All the same, within close distance there are a number of really good restaurants. We had two wonderful dinners at Exotica (we liked the first so much that we went a second time). For breakfast - the french toast at Pancita Cafe is a must. Cafe Remy had good quality food and if you want a quick bite of local food - the nearby Sodas are very reasonable. One thing to bear in mind - the lodge is in the rain forest -so expect to see some bugs and reptiles in and around the lodge - nothing harmful. We spent a lot of time just relaxing on the deck watching the views and the wildlife. We would definitely go again!!

Pura Vida es definitivamente un lugar que visita cuando su objetivo es alejarse y estar absolutamente desconectado. Todo el equipo de Pura Vida es profesional y tan útil como puede ser. La única sugerencia sería asegurarse de que lo hacen antes del atardecer para evitar perderse en su primera noche, así como parando por las tiendas en uvita para recoger bocadillos y bebidas que necesitará ya que es un mínimo de 30 minutos en coche a la tienda más cercana de El Ecolodge. Absolutamente probar los senderos naturales y abrazar el estilo de vida Pura Vida. Gracias de nuevo por una experiencia maravillosa.

Pros: La vista es impresionante. Los amaneceres y puestas de sol son como se describen. El amanecer desde la habitación de arriba es precioso. La zona es remota y muy tranquilo, excepto para la vida silvestre. Gersan es muy agradable y obviamente trata de complacer. Había fruta fresca cuando llegamos, un bonito detalle. Contras: Es mucho más alejado de lo que esperábamos (puede ser un pro). Alrededor de 20 minutos a restaurantes y una hora para cosas turísticas. El camino que conduce a la casa de campo es increíblemente aterrador y comenzar a perder color. Gersan no habla Inglés. Las fotografías en línea son una representación muy exacta del lugar - cuando era nuevo. Ahora parece un poco curtido y la cubierta no se ha mantenido como debería. Cuando entramos, nos instantáneamente percibió un olor a humedad. Esto se debió al hecho de que había una humedad del 95%, que está completamente ventilado, y la casa estaba equipada con los textiles de uso en interiores. Los (tela) sofá, camas, almohadas, sábanas y toallas estaban húmedas y olía a humedad. Somos de Florida, así que estamos muy acostumbrados al calor / humedad. La gama de gas funcionó, pero el horno no (Gersan confirmó). En nuestro segundo día, decidimos ir a dar un paseo por sus senderos y tratar de encontrar la cascada. Aunque está claro que alguien puso esfuerzo en la construcción de los senderos con escalones, que fue hace algún tiempo y la mayoría de las medidas se han podrido y los caminos son bastante empinada. Ellos también están cubiertos en el follaje, lo que los hace muy resbaladizo. Uno de los pasos se desintegró cuando di un paso hacia abajo en él lo que hizo caer varias yardas y cortar la pierna. Uno de los miembros del grupo más ágiles llegaron a la parte inferior para encontrar que la corriente a la cascada había sido desviado con un dique de expediente por lo que ya no es una cascada :( Entonces, el agua caliente dejó de funcionar. El calentador de agua solar se encuentra en una alcoba que ha sido invadido por el follaje, por lo que recibe muy poca luz solar. Nos dijeron que conecte el manual del tanque y esperar 2 horas. Esto no funcionó bien. A la mañana siguiente, no tuvimos agua en absoluto. Supongo que el suministro de agua que conduce a la casa de campo fallado. Gersan convertido en el tanque de reserva (unos 10 pies por encima de la casa) así que casi no tenía presión de agua. Era un goteo, si nada en absoluto. Todavía no había agua caliente. A pesar de que intentó todo lo que pudo, que no estaban seguros de si este sería fijo, así que tuvimos que encontrar otro alojamiento. Gersan nos puso en con el dueño, que nos hizo sentir como si nos estuvieran irrazonable. Se devolverá los 4 días que no nos quedamos, pero no nos descuento para los 2 días sin agua caliente, lo que habría sido apreciados. Encontramos mucho más alojamientos modernos con vistas comparables y más servicios por menos dinero. Era como camping (caro) - con algunas comodidades.

Una hermosa casa pequeña en el medio de la selva! Realmente disfrutamos de la estancia - fue muy relajante.

Mi marido y yo fuimos al albergue en nuestra luna de miel, la reserva era muy último minuto, pero Joe & Kiki fueron rápidamente capaz de proporcionarnos más información que la que podríamos llegar a necesitar. La casa es mejor que se puede imaginar, la ubicación es impresionante, y hay un sinfín de oportunidades para explorar en la zona. La casa tiene todo lo necesario, excepto para algunas toallas de playa, y una pluma para firmar el libro de visitas. Yo recomiendo tomar el tour con Gersan, es una experiencia maravillosa, y que va a terminar en una playa privada sin otros turistas. Si tienes suerte puedes encontrar una familia de Macaw del. La casa es muy tranquilo, la piscina es agradable y fresco, y los sonidos de la selva son muy relajante. La casa está definitivamente fuera de lo común, pero bien vale la pena la caminata.

We just finished a 10 - month family trip around the world with a stay at Pura Vida Ecolodge. We couldn't have picked a better spot to unwind and reflect. Pura Vida is beautiful and charming and wonderfully remote. Definitely one of the best places we stayed of the 21 countries we visited.

We had a an amazing time in Costa Rica and at the Pura vida Eco lodge. We stayed at the lodge for a week during August (non peak season) which suited us great, the beeches were empty and excursions ended up being private :). If you stay at the lodge I would recommend doing the ISA canapy tour, a visit the the villa alturas wildlife sanctuary and gursans mangrove tour (early start but worth it). We at at citrus, azul, exotica and ceviche remy, all of which I would recommend. The lodge its self is amazing and a real sanctuary away from busy city life. You really are in the jungle here so don't expect anything less (bugs included), you will also 100% need a 4x4!!!! The views are amazing, watching the sun set over the sea with a cold beer after a hard days tracking in the jungle was awesome. Also, go to the local supermarket and ask them to take you to the hide em waterfall, a bit of a walk but 100% worth it. We had the whole thing to ourselves All in all an amazing trip and an amazing place

This place is amazing. We thought it'd be hard to live up to the reputation from the site, but it fully exceeded our high expectations. Everything was very well done, the views are spectacular to say the least, both of the Pacifico and the Jungle. The wildlife continued to astound us throughout our week long stay. Toucans, Howler Monkeys, wide variety of birds, and other exotic insect species. Las Cascadas (the waterfall hike) is a must-do activity. Go either way at the bottom of the well-marked trail, and be taken aback by the adventure. Stunning pools and waterworks abound. Gersan, the housekeeper, is the man. Totally helpful, extremely nice, and all around good guy. We could go on but the place was all-in-all amazing. Don't think, just do it! Muchas gracias Joe, Kika, y Gersan... Pura Vida. Jay y John

If you are looking for an authentic experience in this area, you won't find it at the Marriott. You will find it with Coco. He was genuine and outgoing from the moment we arrived. His place had AC (which was amazing!) And his recommendations for food, yoga, and the area were perfect. He gave my girlfriend and I a private surf lesson and let us use his board during our stay. His place is simple and clean, and the bed was very comfortable. This was exactly what we were looking for to wrap up a great trip! Thanks again Coco. Pura Vida mi amigo

我们住在Coco的地方达2个月,我们非常喜欢。这房子是很土气,但非常迷人的所有木制品可可已完成它。床很舒服,你当你醒来周边地区的一个不错的360度视图。厨房是不是日常的烹调手艺,但是我们把它用于我们的逗留工作。可可是一个伟大的主机。他总是在那里给我们做什么或固定的事情,并没有立即开展工作的建议。我们肯定会再呆在那里。

Coco è un ragazzo super cordiale, è stato molto utile. Il suo posto è essenziale ma è tutto il necessario per una vita pura vida. Mi piacerebbe andare qui solo se si dispone di un veicolo perché era difficile da trovare, ma vale la macchina la spiaggia era ideale per il surf

We booked the whole month of June at Coco's place in Playa Negra. There were always four of us, but various groups coming and going. There was plenty of space and accommodations for everyone, and the whole month was a blast. With Coco's help, we went horseback riding, jungle tours, day trips to Avellanas, Tamarindo, and Junquillal, spear fishing and much more. The house itself is situated about a 15 minute walk from the beach, but with great restaraunts along the way and firing surf at the end of the road its worth the walk. Overall, we had a blast and Coco was a great host. He is currently looking to buy the land behind his house to build a tree house which we would all definitely come back for! Thanks Coco!

Coco was a gracious host. He greeted us everyday with a big smile and genuine spirit. He was always more than happy to assist us in any way he could and he continued to check in on us throughout our trip. He is also a very talented wood craftsman, so it was a pleasure staying in the spacious cabina, which he built from scratch, with lovely teak woodwork throughout. The location was perfect for our needs. The beach was a short 1 kilometer walk, which we enjoyed daily and we found ourselves dining at Latino's just down the road, when we weren't cooking at the cabina. We look forward to staying with Coco again!

Coco was een uitstekende gastheer en altijd meer dan blij om te helpen met alles (de hele maand we verbleven). Zijn pension was zeer comfortabel en ik vond vooral wakker in de slaapkamer op de vliering tussen de bomen. Coco is een geweldige vent en ik ben van plan met hem in contact te blijven als ik begin mijn verhuizing naar dit prachtige land. Blijf hier!

Wir kamen zu einem Super-Raum entspannt und wurden von Coco und sein Hund Pisco begrüßt. Er zeigte uns, und wir fuhren zum Abendessen. Der Raum ist genau, wie beschrieben und war sauber und bereit für unsere Ankunft. Wir werden wieder für einen Aufenthalt auf dem Weg nach Norden. Dank Coco!

Coco er en forbløffende vært! Han gik ud over noget vi spurgte ham. Kahyt var fantastisk med fantastisk a / c og visning af stjerner (både fra hængekøjer og hvor du lægge dit hoved natten). Coco også kender alle i byen ... Du får tabt- alle vil vise dig, hvor coco hus er. En af mine foretrukne dele om kabinen var absolut de 2 hunde Lupe og Nacho. Så rart, så kærlig, og Nacho er ganske manden rundt i byen. Der er ikke en person / turist, der ikke kender ham (men lupe var min favorit). Stranden er fantastisk, vi er fra Florida og Hawaii, så vi vil gerne tro, at vi kan stå inde for en stor strand. Pak en frokost og dit valg af "drik". Tip er, når du kommer til stranden gang til venstre, og holde i gang ... Du har stranden for dig selv. Medbring en frisbee, fodbold, eller fodbold- tonsvis af plads til at spille. Restauranter i byen er forbløffende også! Prøv ceviche på cafe Playa Negra, de friske fisk tacos på jalapeños (kun kontant), og kaffe hus 2 døre ned fra fra coco s. Enhver tur, som du ønsker og fantastiske nips kan du finde på Lula ture (på tværs af gaden fra cafe Playa Negra). Hun planlagt en forbløffende solnedgang booze cruise i byen over, hvor vi så hvaler og havskildpadder! Og hænderne ned den bedste Ridning oplevelse af vores liv. Det har været en af vores bedste ferier i vores liv, denne lille by er hjemsted for nogle af de største hjerter folk du nogensinde vil mødes. Kabinen er ikke et 5 stjernet hotel, det er et hjem, og det er præcis, hvordan du vil føle.

It's hard to describe just how magical this place is. It was perfectly tranquil and we felt right at home. Jose and his family were exceptionally friendly and welcoming and made us feel wonderful. I would recommend this place to anyone traveling to Tamarindo.

casa tranquila, cumple su nombre. Es un lugar tranquilo, lleno de paz. Pajaritos y olas del mar... Eso es lo que se escucha desde la terraza. Hermoso lugar, especial para relajarse y dejar el estrés de la ciudad y el trabajo.

Nuestra primera experiencia con airbnb y ha sido fantástica. Casa tranquila es justo lo que su nombre dice. Hemos estado tranquilos, a nuestro aire, muy a gusto en una propiedad con todo lo que necesitas, cerca del pueblo y la playa, pero apartada suficientemente para disfrutar de un buen descanso. Tienen dos enormes perros que cuidarán de vosotros como sí os conociesen de toda la vida, muy muy bien enseñados que les recibirán con meneos de cola desde el primer segundo pero les dejarán distancia tan pronto como les deis la orden. Un 10!

Loved my stay at Casa Tranquila ! Jose and Ali are a beautiful couple and were both very friendly and helpful during our visit. The bungalow is in a great location which makes it easier for everyone to get into town (3-4$ taxi) or a 5 minute drive if you have a car. AC is only in the bedroom, but it is very strong so don't worry about being hot. Overall a great experience. Definitely recommend !

L'endroit était incroyable. Le nom est une description parfaite de la place de Jose . La piscine était un endroit idéal pour se rafraîchir dans l'après-midi. Jose nous a accueillis à notre arrivée et était très serviable avec les directions de lieux à visiter et sur la façon d' y arriver. Nous avons aussi été accueillis par son beau chien chaque fois que nous revenions à la maison.

Lugar de José fue nuestra primera parada en nuestra luna de miel en Costa Rica y que no podría haber sido más acogedor. Es a unos 15-20 minutos a pie de la avenida principal / playa en Tamarindo, con una gran colina en el extremo. Era bastante fácil para dos personas en forma, pero tenga en cuenta. Por la noche hay partes iluminadas de la caminata, así que tener una linterna era servicial. No teníamos un coche y no tuvimos problemas para llegar a / desde cualquier lugar que queríamos ir en la ciudad. El bunaglow (nos alojamos en la más pequeña) tenía todo lo necesario: toallas, una pequeña cocina con vajilla, baño y dormitorio grande con A / C (que utilizamos cada noche, en noviembre). Por la noche había hormigas en el suelo pero eran inofensivos y pasado mañana. La piscina y los jardines son impresionantes, y todo el edificio está asegurado por una puerta (y dos perritos adorables). José vive en el lugar, y era increíblemente amable y servicial cuando lo necesitábamos. Sin duda me alojaría con José de nuevo si alguna vez volvemos a Tamarindo.

Tolle kleine Bungalows. Nah an alles in Tamarindo. Jose hat einige tolle Anregungen auf Orte zu gehen, essen und sehen. Mach dir einen Gefallen und kaufe ein Auto. Es gibt viele coole Strände ein wenig weniger überfüllt dann Tamarindo, das sind die Fahrt wert! Nur Warnung: Ich habe schwere Lebensmittelvergiftung von der Bodega (Bio-Restaurant und Markt). Vermeide diesen Ort! Anders als das, Pura Vida!

We had a great time in Tamarindo. Exactly the laid back vacation we wanted and Jose's place was the perfect place to stay.

Nous avons adoré notre séjour dans cette maison! Rosie était facile à coordonner avec quand nous sommes arrivés et la maison elle-même est grande. Il est à proximité de plusieurs restaurants et un grand marché dans le centre-ville Esterillos et Bejuco à proximité. Nous avons passé beaucoup de temps à Playa Bejuco mais il est pas loin de plusieurs grandes plages et quelques autres villes aussi. Nous sommes allés à Manuel Antonio et Rosie était utile avec des conseils pour la région. La maison est spacieuse et très moderne, avec de belles terrasses multiples spaces- en plein air et une grande piscine. Il était parfait pour seulement deux d'entre nous, mais il y a une deuxième chambre avec son propre coin salon et salle de bains si la maison serait aussi génial pour les familles et les groupes d'amis. La cuisine est entièrement équipée et i(URL HIDDEN)tout au long donc nous étions très à l'aise. Il y a un gardien sur place et la propriété se sent en sécurité. Nous avons marché autour du lac et une courte distance les sentiers et avons vu beaucoup d'oiseaux et d'animaux. Dans l'ensemble un excellent endroit pour séjourner!

alojamientos fantásticos - la casa era hermosa y privada. Nuestros días comenzó y terminó en la piscina. El terreno se encuentra en es ideal para el senderismo y la salida a la fauna silvestre (vimos un montón de pájaros, iguanas, caimanes y). La cercana ciudad tenía un montón de restaurantes y hay varias playas cercanas. Bujuco playa era nuestro favorito - agua azul, arena negro, y prácticamente vacío (estuvimos allí durante la semana). Rosie ayudó a coordinar algunas excursiones de un día para nosotros (nuestro favorito era un viaje a la Isla Tortuga - una isla donde nos pulmón, subió, y nos tiramos Otro favorito iba de excursión a Rainmaker -. Una caminata de selva tropical con múltiples cascadas a chapotear en esta casa es. ideal para personas que buscan una base para salir a explorar la costa del Pacífico CR. Sin duda, pensamos un viaje de regreso!

Rosie and Bruno provided us with everything we needed for a wonderful experience on our 1st trip to Costa Rica. They were wonderful with our check-in/check-out and daily needs, it couldn't have been easier. They also provided several suggestions for places to eat and exciting day trips including hiking/swimming at Rainmaker & Nauyacas Falls and kayaking through a mangrove forest with Cambute Mangrove Tours to see rare Capuchin monkeys. In fact, we saw more wildlife right out our kitchen window than some of the hiking tours including Squirrel Monkeys and tons of birds (if you get up early enough!). This trip was the best that my wife, 2 daughters and I have ever taken and Rosie, Bruno and the Zen Retreat were a big part of that experience. We will definitely return to this beautiful country.

I can't say enough about how awesome Los Laureles was. Rosie and Bruno were so accommodating and helpful throughout the week. The house was AMAZING! So beautiful and so so peaceful. It's even nicer than the pictures! The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you would need, there's a washer and dryer in the house and they provide fresh sheets and towels which was great! The house was much larger than we thought it would be, and very clean. The pool was great to come home to and was kept very clean. The deck was my favorite part! My husband and I laid on the lawn chairs and watched the stars at night and watched toucans off the deck during the day. I really can't say enough about the house or the area in general. The property was beautiful and so well kept. It was so peaceful and felt secluded but it was so close to nightlife and restaurants and the beautiful beach. All of our excursions were only 15 minutes to an hour away! The first day we explored the property, which was an adventure in itself! They have fresh fruits and veggies growing on the property - star fruit, bananas and much more. We saw sloths, cayman, turtles, toucans and lizards and got to enjoy fresh coconut water, which Bruno cut down and gave to us! On the second day we explored Playa Bejuco at low tide. We walked through the mangroves and collected shells. Afterwards, we went to lunch at Hotel Pelicano - food was amazing and steps away from beach. We swam in the ocean for a bit and saw lots of mana rays! Throughout the rest of the trip, we went zip lining with Canapy Safari in Quepos (awesome,) horseback riding to the Nauyaca waterfalls (definitely recommend) and visited Rainmaker and Manuel Antonio (both so amazing.) Rosie was so helpful in booking excursions for us and also gave us advice on where to go/what times to visit. We did go kayaking through the mangroves with Damas Kayak Tours, which I booked on my own. It was cool, but I wish I would have asked Rosie prior to booking because I think the tours she was familiar with would have been better:) We will definitely be visiting Los Laureles in the future. It was an amazing experience and I highly recommend! Perfect honeymoon spot, but it would also be great for a family vacay or just a nice getaway!

Our stay here was amazing and Rosie and her husband made it even better. Their communication was above and beyond excellent. They gave us awesome suggestions for places to go and eat that we would have never found otherwise. We felt right at home and welcomed from the beginning. I had read reviews of her husband Bruno cutting down some coconuts for other guest and asked if we could have the same and they where waiting for us in the refrigerator for us when we got there. The place is gorgeous, we did notice that the photos of the listing looked a little different from the actual place but nothing major, you could just tell that they where probably taken when the place was new. Some of the flooring was different, the kitchen windows didn't have the woos boards outside and the glass sliding doors where all clear and not stained green as they photos showed them. These were so minor that they did not change our stay one bit but was something that we noticed (I have an eye for detail). The place is a lot bigger than we expected it to be and had everything we could possibly need. Location was secluded but so close to anything you might need at a moments notice. Rosie and Bruno booked a kayaking trip for us that was amazing and massages for us at the house (my wife loved that). I must say the best part was having them as excellent hosts, they made sure that they took care of anything we needed without feeling like they where bothering us. The beds where not the most comfortable but the place we stayed at the week before had beds that felt the same so it could be that we where not used to a harder firmer bed. There was tons of wildlife to watch while there and made the experience that much more unique. The outside shower was pretty awesome to get cooled off after a hot day. Our stay was amazing overall and I would defiantly recommend staying here. Rosie and Bruno are excellent host.

Rosie's place was amazing. She was extremely helpful leading up to the trip with suggestions and planning tips for us. The layout of the house was fantastic and every bit as good as expected. The pool was amazing and having it all to ourselves every day was definitely a highlight. The property the house is on is beautiful and we saw tons of tropical birds and iguanas roaming around. There are caymans in the lake next to the house which were fun to see. The house is just very a short drive from a beautiful beach lined with trees and shade, and we actually started our morning run from the house and ran down to the beach every day. The house is conveniently and centrally located in a great spot on the coast. We had dinner in Jaco or Esterillos most nights, and spend our days exploring the coast to the south. I'd definitely recommend Rosie's place if you're looking for a quiet place with your own private pool to relax in after a day of exploring. It's not walkable to any restaurants or bars, but we enjoyed the privacy and having the pool to ourselves. Definitely recommended!

The house is very nice and we enjoy it very much. We recommande highly this place if you want to relax and also you can go to restaurant and grocery close to the house. We recommend a car to travel to Jaco or further.

一个可爱的现代住宅。布鲁诺和罗茜的帮助和包容。我们喜欢的游泳池和池塘只是以下的房子有野生动物,包括苍鹭,翠鸟,caimens和大量的蜥蜴。

Amazing place pictures dont do it justice 24.7 security nice neighborhood easy to get to washer and dryer in unit tons of pillows very clean only $15 uber ride from airport highly recommend

Excelente el apartamento y el edificio. Vista spectacular, todo el mobiliario de buen gusto. Recomiendo que lleven ropa de gimnasio y traje de baño! y le recomendaría a Luis subir fotos de las áreas. Las inidiaciones para llegar no son fáciles, sería recommendable que al alquilar pidan las coordenadas en (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) maps, porque los taxistas no saben donde queda. Otra recomendación, utilicen Uber y no taxis, cuestan al menos 40% menos WM

This penthouse is awesome and Luis is a great host! The place feels very secure with guards at the entree and is very clean. We sure recommend this place to stay.

Cet endroit est très bien si vous avez une voiture ou prévoyez de rester sur les beaux locaux la plupart du temps. Il n'y a pas la transpiration public à proximité et le magasin, les banques, etc ne sont pas à proximité. Vous pouvez marcher quatre blocs aux taxis. Endroit calme et sécuritaire. Je ne rencontre pas Luis, mais son fils est venu par deux fois dans les 10 jours, nous sommes allés vérifier sur les choses. Si vous restez à cet endroit, prendre bouchon d'oreille avec vous parce que si ce est un jour de grand vent vous pouvez vraiment entendre le vent dans la nuit.

Ausgezeichnete Gastgeber. Der perfekte Ort.

Precioso condominio! Increíble piscina climatizada de borde infinito y gimnasio 24/7. Guardado, muy moderno y seguro. Cerca de San José centro, Escazu, Santa Ana, etc. pero en una bonita zona residencial y no en el centro de San José, lo cual es bueno! Fácil acceso al aeropuerto. Una gran relación calidad-precio en una zona muy buena.

Great place that looks in real the same as it looks like on pictures. The many and enormous windows make you enjoy the nice view from 16th floor. Luis Jr is easy to reach and respond quickly to our different needs. Well located, near of the highways. The only negative point is about the fact that the highway #1 is having major work to enlarge the bridge that takes you to Alajuela. The traffic jam is ridiculously big and makes you loose tremendous time. I recommend this place if you can avoid this highway.

Beautiful place clean Luis Jr met me the night I arrived showed me the PH explained where everything was and recommended a few places to see. Thank you for the hospitality

I really loved staying here. You can literally hear/see the ocean from the room. It was secluded enough, but still close to many things to do/eat. The only thing I would say that someone staying there would need to be aware of is the bugs. The place is literally in the mountains and the doors/windows are very open, so us humans are really the ones that are the trespassers, but it's just something to be aware of when booking. There's no ac but the fan above the bed does the job at night and one can sleep comfortably. The beach is a 2 minute drive down the hill, and there are a few restaurants driving distance. We went to los almendros and another one about a 10 minute drive away that had karaoke, which was very funny to watch. I can't remember the name, but when driving from the house, it's the first of three restaurant in a row. The food was surprisingly delicious and VERY affordable. Portions are huge so beware. Overall, I really enjoyed staying here and would stay again. Justin and Jessica definitely contributed to a wonderful trip.

Justin foi incrível e superou todas as nossas expectativas!

What a magical place! Our stay at Justin's house was wonderful . You can't beat the view of the ocean from the balcony, the bed was very comfortable and the beach is moments away. The house has everything you need and then some, including a cool tub, barbecue and cabana. Justin was awesome and was near by if we needed anything. Thanks Justin!

We loved this place, it was beautiful and Justin was super friendly and helpful. We would definitely love to stay again in the future! The views were amazing and the beach was perfect!

Justin was the best host I have encountered through Airbnb so far. He was extremely nice and was available at all times! The place is very beautiful and offers everything you need. Even has binoculars and a flashlight as well which are very helpful. We spent more time than we planned simply hanging out around the house bc it was so awesome! Very small and safe town as well.

This is an Amazingly Beautiful place. The view, the people are nice. Great stay. We will stay here again when we return :)

Platsen är stor, avslappnad atmosfär och en spektakulär utsikt, precis som annonsen säger. Utrymmet är bekväm, köket är mycket praktiskt och på plats kunde inte vara trevligare. Justin och hans familj är stora värdar, försett oss med ankomsten och stanna hela slät. För att göra saken värre, kan vi ta våra hundar och Maya värd tik han var stor, så vi alla hade en stor åktur i en trevlig miljö. Vi tillbringade mycket snabb tid och vi ser fram emot att återvända, så definitivt tillbaka i framtiden. Rekommenderas 100%.

We had a great time here! It was easy to find from San Jose, and it was a perfect place to spend our week. Justin and Jessica were awesome - they were welcoming and helpful starting before we arrived and throughout our trip. We had everything we needed during our stay, including the housekeeper tidying up for us midweek, and great recommendations for things to do and where to eat. Justin even brought us some beach towels when we realized that we hadn't brought any. Esterillos Oeste is a perfect location - it's small but beautiful and we were completely happy there on the days we stayed in town. It's also a short drive from some larger nearby towns, and from Manuel Antonio National Park. Our week here was relaxing and easy, and filled with amazing views - just what we needed.

David is a superb host and the house is private and well equipped. The bikes were perfect for getting around to the beautiful beach and fabulous local restaurants. We had the best holiday in years.

David ist das beste, netteste, fürsorgliche und aufmerksame Gastgeber wir je hatten. Sein Haus ist komfortabel, bequem und gemütlich. Wir empfehlen es.

Modern and comfortable David has everything that you need to enjoy a visit to his place. Less than a ten minute walk to Playa Guiones,beautiful beaches David was a gracious and helpful host. However you need to be aware that the location (Guiones) is not safe , we left our car on the main beach (where all the tourists are) ,for about an hour and car was broken with all or documents-professional camera-cash-iphones stolen Best advise ,do not carry anything of value and even during the night make sure you let the lights open,your things of value in the safe and villa secured when you go to dinner Besides that David was full of good advise for activities We hope that you ll have a better experience than us !

la maison de David est très élégant et confortable. Un peu loin de la plage, je recommanderais louer un buggy si vous avez des petits enfants ou de parents âgés. David était un hôte attentif, et très serviable avec toutes les questions

Fue fantástico para alojarse en la casa de David, cerca de Nosara. La casa fue exactamente como se describe, muy limpio y práctico. David era un excelente anfitrión, nos dio buenos consejos sobre dónde ir y qué hacer en la zona. La casa está muy cerca de la playa y hay muy buenos restaurantes muy cerca de la casa. Gabriel.

David is an exceptional host who constantly goes out of his way to make you feel at home. If you stay at "Casa David," you can be assured you will have a once-in-a-lifetime vacation in place you may have only imagined existed in novels or films. Our host quickly answered any of our questions and then politely retreated into the background so we were assured of our privacy. The home is everything the pictures contain and more. I particularly love glass, steel, and wood in a minimalist design so this was perfect for me and my wife also loved it. David includes bedding, towels, kitchen supplies, and everything you need to make your stay as comfortable as possible. The maps don't accurately reveal the charm and beauty of the little village of Nosara which is just a few hundred yards out the front door. We ended up renting bikes but it's a quick commute to the beach and the local restaurants/shops. A great example of David's incredible hosting skills: When it was time for us to leave on the Nosara-San Jose bus home, he could have simply let us wait on the corner without a ticket or take a bumpy golf cart ride to Nosara town to buy a ticket. No! He jumped on his motor bike and rode into town to get us two tickets at no extra expense just because he's a great guy. We were skeptical at first since this was our first Airbnb experience, however, it was absolutely perfect.

The property is very pretty, and as described in the hosts' listing. In particular, the back patio area was a very relaxing place to hang out. The place was very clean and everything was in great working order. Noise was minimal during the day, some music from a local bar that always ended by 10PM - easy to sleep there. The host has a ton of good information about places to eat and things to go see - we didn't get to all of his recommendations, but the ones we followed were spot-on. House-specific notes: - If you plan on cooking at the house, we recommend stopping at a larger supermarket on the way to David's to buy staples. The local Mini-super (walking distance to the house) has enough to get by, but is very expensive. - If you are used to sewer systems, be aware that NO paper can go into the toilets. Our recommendation is to bring a box of sandwich bags, so that remnants of every bathroom trip can be sealed up quickly. Otherwise, the paper goes into a wastebasket. Use your imagination here..... - We missed the turn at the gas station for road 150 given in the directions, and went WAY out of our way. Spring for GPS or data for your phone to get there. I would use the KFC as the landmark to turn right onto the 150. It's the only KFC we saw, and is modern and brightly lit. Also, take the right turn onto 934. If you go all the way down to 160 on 150, you're in for a hell of a rough ride. Nosara-specific notes (nothing to do with host): - The roads are awful in the area. Everything west of 150 is gravel/dirt, with extreme potholes and ruts. If you are renting a car, make sure you get one with good clearance and preferably 4x4. - We went at the end of high season, and it was very dry and dusty due to the road dust being kicked up. It is certainly not a deal-breaker, just be aware of it. - When you run into the Nicaraguan pottery guys, be very firm with them the first time if you don't want to buy. They are relentless (although they seem amateur if you compare them to the sales pitches in the Caribbean.) - Favorite eats: El Pacifico Azul, Rosi Soda Tica, Kaya Sol, Burgers and Beers, Robin's Cafe - Coffee: Olo Alaia (hands down), Cafe Fiore after that - Craft Beer: Burgers and Beers (again, clear winner), 10 Pies decent too. Everywhere else is the same 2 or 3 choices - Surf Lessons: I went with Nosara Surf Academy, right at the entrance to Playa Guiones. I was very happy with the choice; the owner (Kim) and the staff I dealt with were excellent, and there is no surf shop attached to sell a bunch of extra crap. It's just about surfing with them. If you don't use NSA,...

Nous venons de passer un séjour de 9 nuits au Casa David à Playa Guiones. Dans l'ensemble, notre voyage au Costa Rica était vraiment agréable et relaxant! La maison était bien entretenu, propre et nouvelle. Je recommande fortement pour les couples, ou un groupe de quelques amis que l'espace est parfaitement accueillir pour 2-4 personnes confortablement. Avoir deux salles de bains, une machine à laver, deux terrasses, climatisation pour les nuits chaudes, et beaucoup de lumière naturelle tout au long étaient que quelques-uns des agréments fabuleux. David est un très agréable et facile de parler à une personne avec beaucoup de conseils et astuces pour explorer Nosara. Il est là quand vous avez besoin de lui, mais il ne est pas du tout envahissant. Nous ne avons pas cuisiné beaucoup pendant que nous étions là, mais sa cuisine est magnifique avec appareils en acier inoxydable et entièrement équipée. Je vous recommande vivement cette maison et nous espérons que d'autres apprécient ce que nous avons fait. Merci pour votre hospitalité et nous avons hâte à notre prochain voyage!

The tree house was absolutely amazing. An experience that you will not be able to have very often. It was clean, unique, and a lot of fun. When can you take a bath in a tree trunk? Or watch a movie as a toad lands next to you? As hosts they could have not been nicer, we truly enjoyed our experience.

The tree house was one of a kind of experience, loved the bath tub and décor. It is pretty close from the airport and host accommodated our needs very well.

We enjoyed our stay at the rancho a lot. The space is very open and beautifully designed, surrounded in a stunning garden. The wildlife will wake you up in the morning, amazing how close you get with the nature and still stay comfortable. Jean and Al are wonderful hosts, discrete and attentive when needed. Highly recommended.

We absolutely loved our stay at Jean's guest house - it is really an incredible space. As beautiful as the photos are, being in the actual space is even more impressive. Our night there was the perfect calm ending to our time in Costa Rica - the town of Atenas is very charming, with some great restaurant options, nearby sites, and close proximity to the airport, making getting home simple. Jean and her husband were exceptionally welcoming, allowing us to wander around the property, giving us great advice on dining options, and just be really wonderful to chat with. If we ever have the opportunity to head to Costa Rica again I would definitely make another stop here.

We were greeted by Jean and Alan with a warm welcome. They provided helpful information on our arrival and in advance, including a great restaurant recommendation within walking distance. Unique property with beautiful gardens. It's a bit like glamping. Pack your ear plugs if you're a light sleeper - nature is noisy and amazing at night! Highly recommended.

Jean and Al are awesome hosts. The pictures definitely don't do the place justice! It's AMAZING!!! From the fresh picked tangerines and Costa Rican pears to the cool breezes and great people this is the place to stay on your trek through this beautiful country. It's tucked away in the mountains but Jean gives great directions and the cab drivers are great. Everyone in the town is welcoming. Jean and Al's awesome neighbor's gave me a ride to Jaco beach (about an hour away) and even gave me a ride to the airport. I can't say enough wonderful things about Jean, Alex, their beautiful place, and the great town of Atenas!

Quel plaisir était de rester dans ce bel endroit pour la nuit. Jean et Al est allé au-delà pour nous assurer que nous avions directions sans équivoque et même accommodés pour trajet de retour à Jaco pour nous. Nous avons programmé notre séjour incroyablement dernière minute et ils étaient si merveilleux à ce sujet. La ville était animée et belle. Leur propriété de 4 acres était incroyable. Mon mari et moi sommes amoureux des animaux énormes alors Bruno le chien et leur canard solitaire doux étaient une grande partie de notre séjour. La seule chose qui aurait pu mieux est de savoir si Bruno aurait pu passer tout notre séjour juste à côté de notre côté (ancien chien doux doux qui nous rappelle notre propre. Il est strictement un chien à l'extérieur qui reste sur une avance de coureur dans la cour. lui, bien sûr, vit au paradis et se targue d'occuper sa belle maison, mais être parents fous de chiens américains que nous sommes, nous ne voulions encore l'amener à l'intérieur et l'blottir

Ich hatte eine tolle Zeit. Dieser Ort war mehr als eindeutig. Es fühlte sich wie ich im Paradies für ein paar Tage. Es war günstig gelegen (nur 30 Minuten vom Flughafen) und Jean und Al waren so süß. Ich würde auf jeden Fall dieses Hotel nur sehr empfehlen.

Marie era muy servicial y nos recibió con prontitud a las teclas de cambio. San José es un reto porque no hay direcciones y algunas muestras de la calle, pero ella siempre tantos detalles como sea posible para ayudarnos a encontrar su lugar.

Marie's home was beautiful. I felt very safe in her apartment, and it is within walking distance of all the bus stations. Marie was also very patient and accepting when I had to make a last minute change in my itinerary, and stayed late to help me problem solve travel issues. Her apartment is as lovely as she is. Thanks Marie!

Centralt beliggende og tæt på alle busser og markedet for at opleve ægte kultur i Costa Rica. Bus vil tage dig til Manuel Antonio, Jaco, Punta Arenas, Vulcan Irazu (Special Bus fra Ave 2 i fra Grand Hotel Costa Rica tager dig til toppen af bjerget for $ 5), Vulcan Poas og andre steder i Costa Rica. Mercado Central og shoppingområde er kun 4 blok fra lejligheden. Dejligt sted at spise ude eller tilberede din egen mad. Ved siden af bus linje og støjende natten, men med lidt hvid støj fra blæseren, bliver støjen reduceres betydeligt.

Vi havde et lille problem at få ind i lejligheden ved ankomsten, men Marie kom straks til at løse problemet. Lejligheden er fantastisk! Det er i en meget sikker bygning, tæt på busterminaler (10-15 minutter gåtur afhængigt af hvilken en) og en kort gåtur til en strålende supermarked (Auto marked) og hovedgaden. Lejligheden i sig selv er ekstremt rummelige, lyse og luftige og smukt præsenteret og udstyret. Det havde alt vi behov for at lave mad til os og til at slappe af. Der er et stort vaskerum lige på tværs af korridoren. Alt er god kvalitet og nye. Badeværelset er virkelig god, med en monsoon stil bruser, masser af varmt vand og rigelige håndklæder. Virkelig, alt var stor, og vi vil meget anbefale denne lejlighed!

Alles was perfect, de flat is super mooi en schoon op een zeer centrale en mooi gebouw. Marie vond het niet erg dat we waren te laat en wachtte ons. Volledige merken!

Marie was patient to wait for my arrival from the airport. Taxi service from the airport was unusually long at 1 hour, 20 minutes due to single lane construction on the bridge towards downtown. She elaborated about the apartment, things to see in the area, and offered her assistance for whatever questions or services I may need during my stay. The apartment was spotless. Walking around barefoot was a joy without picking up little grains of dirt on my feet. Wireless internet speeds averaged 4.5 Mbps download/1.2 Mbps upload/33 ms ping. The water pressure and temperature from the shower were excellent. The bed a comfortable mixture of soft sheets on a firm bed. There were even some small drinks and snacks in the refrigerator. There isn’t any air conditioning, but opening the windows provides a comfortable breeze. The apartment is centrally located in downtown San José. If you schedule any day tours, pickups are often at nearby hotels which are no more than 3 blocks away. I would urge those unfamiliar with downtown San José to explore the area to ensure they can find the apartment. Plenty of food options like the large grocery store, Auto Mercado or pizza by the slice at Otero’s Pizza is 2 blocks away. Communication was quick with Marie. She went above and beyond to ensure that a late joining friend had reserved taxi from the airport and his own key to the building. She offered house clean services and someone that could help with laundry. During checkout with other guests coming, she allowed me to store luggage to optimize my time in Costa Rica before departing for the airport.

Marie's place was in a great location, clean and super comfortable. It was a bit tricky to find, but Marie was very helpful with directions!

Marie était très serviable et répondra à toutes vos questions rapidement. Son appartement est très agréable et très confortable. J'aimé la façon dont il était proche de l'avenue centrale, le marché central, parcs et musées. Je recommande vraiment vous considérez sa fiche.

Marie was very quick to answer our questions and keep in touch as we took the taxi from the bus station to her place. Photos are accurate so note this is a bunk bed for two which gives more space. It is very comfortable. Stove and kitchen well fitted for our basic cooking during ten days. Location is excellent. We walked everywhere. We would stay there again, and recommend it to others.

Great place to stay. The apartment was perfect for our needs - spotlessly clean, comfortable, very centrally located, and with good wifi and other amenities. Marie is so warm, welcome and accommodating, speaks perfect English and gave us lots of useful information about San Jose and Costa Rica. Check in and out was very easy, despite us leaving very early to catch a bus. I would definitely stay again!

Great location, very clean

Es muy céntrico, hay lugares para comer típicos de aquí baratos y deliciosos, el lugar es tal cual en la foto, sin duda es un lugar excelente para hospedarse

elle a été super fine!

casa de Marie era perfecto para lo que necesitábamos! El apartamento está según lo representado. El lugar estaba limpio; se sentía como un hoteloft! La ubicación es perfecta para nosotros; caminamos por todas partes! Estaba cerca de un montón de lugares para comer, y lugares a visitar. Ella nos recibió al llegar y nos hizo sentir muy cómodos y bienvenidos. También me encantó que nos registramos en nosotros en el medio de nuestra estancia para asegurarse de que nos dieron todo lo que necesitábamos! La comunicación con ella fue muy fácil. Ella era muy receptivo. Ella también recomendó algunos lugares para nosotros a hacer la salida y que fue muy apreciado! Yo recomendaría este lugar 100% y volvería a alojar en este lugar de nuevo.

Tolle Lage in der Innenstadt

Ma femme et moi avons passé 2 nuits ici avant de partir à la découverte du reste du Costa Rica. Marie était très serviable avant notre arrivée, elle nous a également réservé un taxi de l'aéroport qui nous a emmenés directement à l'appartement. L'appartement était dans un emplacement très central et sûr et sécurisé. Marie a été très instructif sur la région et était un hôte fantastique! Merci Marie!

Che fantastico soggiorno! Non sai da dove iniziare. Prima di tutto, Giuseppe è incredibilmente disponibile e resposive nell'organizzazione dettagli. La stessa azienda è un posto incantevole con persone fantastiche che vivono e lavorano lì. Se si può organizzare, consumare i pasti con loro! Il cibo è coltivato in azienda, viene preparato perfettamente, ed è delizioso. Il trifecta perfetto :) La casa sull'albero itself-- cosa talento per costruire questo! E 'un vero casa sull'albero come descritto. Costruito nella albero ed è molto ben costruito con piena elettrica e acqua. Siamo stati fortunati ad avere le scimmie urlatrici residenti appesi in albero sopra di noi per un paio di giorni. Ottimo modo per ottenere un primo piano e osservare questi amici pelosi. Merita una visita!

Wir fuhren direkt über GPS-Koordinaten und entpackt das Auto. Wir waren nicht begrüßt, aber es gab viele Landbewohner in der Nähe. wir fanden wir den Weg zu einer der Gemeinschaftshäuser und rief, wo eine sehr angenehme englische junge Dame spricht uns begrüßt. Sie sagte uns, die Person, die die Tree House beaufsichtigt war derzeit nicht da, aber sie würde ihn anrufen. Am nächsten Tag trafen wir den "Hausmeister", der sehr angenehm und hat uns willkommen fühlen. Der Aufenthalt im Baumhaus war eine unglaubliche Erfahrung! In der Nacht schwankte die Struktur und das Bett in der Brise, und die Mondn Aussicht war unglaublich! Sie werden die Brüllaffen in der Nacht zu hören, und die Vögel werden Sie erwachen, wie die Sonne aufgeht. Als solche waren Schlafenszeiten früh für uns, wie es morgens auch waren, und der Küchenbereich war perfekt für ein paar Tassen Kaffee und eine Kleinigkeit zu essen, bevor sie für den Tag aufbrechen. Ich würde empfehlen, ein Auto (machen, dass ein SUV) als Montezuma 5 - 8 km entfernt, aber bereit, ein paar ziemlich schrecklichen Straßen zu fahren!

La maison de l'arbre est une belle et unique espace. Il était très propre et bien équipée avec des ustensiles de cuisine, du savon et des draps. Bien qu'il nous avons appelé Joseph à quelques reprises avec des questions (pour les directions et pour la clé du coffre-fort), mais il n'a jamais répondu ou rappelé que nous nous ne sommes pas en mesure de verrouiller nos objets de valeur. Encore une bonne expérience globale.

The most unique and unforgettable experience. The treehouse was easily located. We loved the structure of the treehouse and how it was built. Very impressive! Well equipped. Loved the hanging bed, sunsets and sunrises make it even more magical. There wasn't anyone to greet us but we are self sufficient travellers and everything was ready for our arrival. There were volunteers on the farm and they were helpful and inviting if there was anything you needed. Highly recommended for an unique experience. We really enjoyed our time.

Our stay at the treehouse was nothing short of incredible. We arrived in Montezuma via water taxi from Jaco and took a cab (Evelio) who knew exactly how to get to the farm. We were welcomed by Julio to the treehouse around 3pm. I loved hearing the howler monkeys in the distance and the birds nearby. The bugs were NOT a problem - I repeat: the bugs were NOT a problem!! The mosquito net kept us safe from all intruders and I felt secure knowing the bed was suspended. This treehouse is the highlight of my stay in Costa Rica so far.

Endroit magnifique! La vue était incroyable et je doute fort que vous pouvez trouver un meilleur!

独特而宁静的经验,我们所享有的树屋非常多。喜爱蒙特苏马的小镇,并在Clandestina有一些伟大的饭菜,刚下山!

Mains vers le bas cet endroit est incroyable. Situé sur une auto-entretenue ferme biologique. En explorant, vous êtes capable de marcher par les ananas dans le sol et la pendaison étoiles fruits dans les arbres à proximité. Se réveiller les singes hurleurs roucoulement le matin était génial! Julio, le parc gardien était chaleureux et accueillant! Le lit ondule dans le vent et les bruits de la pluie et les oiseaux et les insectes de la jungle est très apaisant! Nous avons passé huit jours et je le recommanderais certainement pour les types les plus outdoorsy de personnes! Bon pour un couple à coup sûr! Assurez-vous d'apporter votre bombe anti-moustiques si .... Après tout, vous êtes dans la jungle. Aussi, nous vous recommandons de louer un 4 roues ou en voiture car il est à environ 5-10 minutes en voiture dans montezuma.

This condo was super nice! When we got to Jaco it was 100F degrees, and the pools were the perfect way to cool off. The landscaping was lush and beautiful- and the pools were immaculate. The condo was air conditioned and had huge king beds with super fluffy pillows. We really enjoyed our stay. The only thing was that there was no toilet paper when we showed up, but Amnon made sure someone dropped some off for us.

The host was great. Sent a cab to pick me up from the airport. Allowed me to me to extend the reservation because I enjoyed it so much.

Este lugar es genial! Amnón era extremadamente servicial con mensajes de correo electrónico antes de nuestra visita y contacto constante durante todo el viaje. El lugar está en una zona aislada y vigilada por guardias de seguridad votos. Perfecto para la relajación! Pasamos cada tarde fuera del condominio, ya que hay mucho que ver, pero fue agradable volver a Wi-Fi y aire acondicionado cada noche. Perfecto para unas vacaciones COSTA RICA!

The place was nice. When we entered the place there was a cat inside, random. It was difficult to have guests as there is a limit and the guard wasn't very understanding of our situation (half of our visitors were leaving shortly for the airport and needed somewhere to wait) Amnon was super friendly and we spoke on the phone to discuss my situation. He was fine with it. The apartment itself was super cute with a beautiful pool and common area!

Amnon era molt fàcil treballar amb ell, i tot va ser sense problemes. Exactament el mateix que les imatges.

一个真正的热带天堂!我们非常喜欢我们的住宿。阿美是迅速作出反应。洗衣机和烘干机是非常有益的。有不错的平板电视在卧室和客厅。我们从公寓到雅科走,真的很喜欢自己。如果我们回到这个领域,我们将留在这儿了。

El anfitrión era muy servicial. Casi inmediatamente después de reservar el lugar, Amnón envió un correo electrónico explicando las direcciones desde el aeropuerto, opciones para el transporte, actividades y restaurantes y consejos útiles recomienda para nuestro viaje. Él respondió a un correo electrónico muy rápidamente y estaba disponible para la pregunta hasta e incluyendo nuestro viaje. El condominio es hermoso. Es lo suficientemente cerca de la ciudad en bicicleta o caminar pero lo suficientemente lejos que es tranquilo y aislado. La seguridad hace sentir muy seguro y la zona de la piscina te hace sentir como si estuviera en su propio paraíso. Hay Wi-Fi en el interior de la casa y que en la zona de la piscin(URL HIDDEN)en los dormitorios, que realmente hicieron la diferencia. Jaco en sí es muy agradable, con un montón de deliciosos restaurantes y hermosas vistas.

Place was amazing, host was very accommodating and stayed in communication at all times.
