About this property

Casa Kali - 4-Min Walk to Beach - AC & Pool
Spacious, modern and very well-equipped house with private pool, air conditioning in the bedrooms and tropical garden, located in a quiet area just a few minutes' walk from Playa Negra. Ideal for families or groups looking for comfort, privacy and nature, without being far from the center of Puerto Viejo, restaurants and shops. A perfect place to rest after a day at the beach or exploring the Southern Caribbean.
Casa Kali is a private, spacious and bright house located in a quiet residential area near Playa Negra. It is surrounded by a closed tropical garden that creates a very private and natural atmosphere. The house was designed to take advantage of ventilation and natural light, with open and comfortable spaces that connect the interior with the garden and pool.
Guests have exclusive access to the entire house and grounds during their stay. There are no other dwellings within the property, so they will enjoy a private and peaceful space, without sharing areas with other guests.
I am delighted to assist guests' inquiries every day from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. I am always attentive at check-in time to ensure everything is in order. Once settled, I offer them complete independence and privacy, although I remain available if they need anything within the indicated hours.
In case of medical or security emergency, they should call 911 directly.

The house is wonderful and perfectly maintained. We stayed a total of 6 weeks and got to interact with all the people keeping the place awesome and spotless. The beach is tiny 4 minute walk to beautiful black sands. The bedrooms have great A/C for a comfortable and quiet night sleep. 5-Stars, would stay there again.
