Check-in is BEFORE 4 pm, to ensure the Property Manager can meet you and guide you to my home during daylight hours. Drive time from the airport in San Jose is approximately 3.5- 4 hours. A 4X4 vehicle is needed to access the road to the property. The road to the top of the mountain has just been paved. This will make your drive to the property much easier. See photo.

The sun goes down around 5:30 pm and it can get cool. You will wake up to many types of birds including macaws, and toucans in the mornings. Enjoy the use of the fruit trees around the house; oranges, lemons, limes, bananas, mangos, pineapple, and avocado.
Many beautiful beaches and waterfalls are within a 10-15 minute drive, ziplining within 5 minutes, and a state park on the beach is 15 minutes away. The vast national park, Manuel Antonio, is an hour away and is highly recommended to see.
The Uvita Information Center is 25 mins away when on the main road. You can book tours through them such as--- Mangrove 3 hour tours which I highly recommend, ziplining, whale watching, horseback riding, plus much more. They can give you directions to the waterfalls and beaches in the area. Golf Course is within 15 min drive from the property.

Quality home; beautiful vista!
This is a comfortable up-to-date home with a great valley vista. The house is well equipped and has a very inviting pool that we used frequently. This house had the most comfortable beds that I've encountered in any VRBO homes. The local manager was very helpful, as well! This was a good experience...

Fantastic!
I have stayed in a lot of properties over the years in Costa Rica and this is among my favourites.
The house is spacious, comfortable, well equipped and has comfy beds. There are great views of the mountains and we regularly saw black hawks, toucans and various species of tanagers.
The pool is a good size and is great for a cool down.
There is good communication with the owner of the property.
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and will definitely stay again.

Paradise in the Mountains
We stayed in this home in the Chontales from February 21 - March 4, 2019. The home is spacious, comfortable and well laid out. The yard is well maintained and the pool is fabulous. Tropical song birds are plentiful. We had great views of the ocean and especially the mountains. We really liked the privacy of the location but never felt alone or were concerned about security. Other homes are visible but never intrusive. After staying in this house for a few days it felt like home. We will definitely be back.

Everything was perfect.
The property and house are exceptionally well maintained. Good beds, pillows, linens,BBQ, kitchen ware, tv, etc. Everything worked, nothing broken. Just stellar! If you are content to stay put most of the time and enjoy the lovely pool, the views, and walking the many gravel roads, you will enjoy your stay. If you want to go to the beach a lot, then you will find it too big and hard a trip. Once you leave the highway, the gravel road getting to the house is very steep and poorly maintained. There are probably 10 or so other lovely houses you can see from the patio, but all far enough away to be non-intrusive. We love this house and hope to come back.

Beautiful home, Amazing views
This house is beautiful very tastefully designed and built. The views of the mountains and the jungle are spectacular , The first night we were here having drinks by the pool, 2 Toucans flew into the tree across the street. We saw Macaws fly by and we could hear the howler monkeys in the distance. This area is all new homes and more being built ,you do want a 4 wheel drive to get up the road.
The owner was a pleasure to work with.
