Fantastic Stay in the Jungle!
This property was perfect for our family of 4 (2 adults, 2 teens) and a highlight of our Costa Rician vacation. The photos provide a true picture of where you will be staying. The bedrooms have air conditioning, the beds are comfy and the bathrooms are spacious. (A few more hooks would be nice - but it's NOT a deal breaker!) The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. The couches are functional (we noticed a trend of patio furniture as living room furnishings in all of our stays in Costa Rica), The pool was a perfect touch to the stay - because it was a private pool, you were not bothered by anyone!. It is not a deep pool - NO diving, but it is a wonderful way to relax, cool off and enjoy the jungle. There is a path to that leads to the river just behind the house. It was so peaceful! You MUST view the "how to get to the property" video that Danny provides. If we had not viewed it prior to coming, we would have never found the house - and we arrived during daylight! I wish there were screens on the windows - it would have been wonderful to keep the windows open in the evening to listen to the jungle. Thank you for a wonderful stay! Pura Vida!
