About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Pool, 6 beaches, Tortuga Island, Curu, & bioluminescence.

Away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Come enjoy our little piece of paradise.
The pool and living area is completely covered. So enjoy being outside with protection from the sun. This also makes it the perfect house during rainy season!

We are located just outside of the small friendly town of Paquera. It's just a 3 minute drive to the center of Paquera that has all the modern conveniences. There are 3 grocery stores, a pharmacy, a variety of restaurants, bars, ATM, delicious bakeries, and a great coffee shop.

The house is conveniently located just a few minutes from the Puntarenas ferry. Head out on a day trip to Crocodile Bridge, Carara National Park and Jaco. You can also access the San Jose area, Monteverde, Arenal, La Fortuna, or many other popular sites. Check the ferry schedules to maximize your time.

We are completely fenced in with one other house, so you can close the gate at night for added security and privacy.

In the late afternoon, listen for the macaws to fly by. You can't miss their loud squawk! We have also had visits by some beautiful green parrots and howler monkeys in the nearby trees.

There is a lot to keep you busy if you want to explore the area. And of course there are multiple uncrowded beaches to visit if you want to swim and relax. You could visit a new beach every day for a week and never drive more than 25 minutes.

Curu Wildlife refuge is about 10 minutes from the house. From there you can hike for miles, kayak, horseback ride, take a scuba diving, snorkeling or fishing tour.

If you love turtles, check out the turtle rescue in Tambor about 25 minutes away. Another day you may want to take a boat ride out to Tortuga island. Or if you love surf towns, head to Santa Theresa for the day or Jaco right across the water.

Montezuma is a must! Head out early and hike the waterfall. Then have some lunch and check out the shops. It's about 45 minutes from the house.

You'll be right at home in this house that was made out of a 40' shipping container. It's insulated with A/C in the 2 king bedrooms, has hot water on demand throughout the entire house, and a washing machine in the back.

The kitchen is well equipped with a microwave, coffee maker, crock pot, rice cooker, gas stove, toaster, and blender. There is also an outdoor area with a sink and a built in charcoal grill.

You will also have use of 2 bicycles, a snorkel set, beach chairs, beach towels, a cooler, a beach umbrella, pool floaties and yoga mats.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and 2 bathrooms, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a washing machine, and a coffee maker.

Kitchen is adequate for basic cooking, when using the oven you'll have to light w/a lighter. The pool is great after a long, hot day, it's not for swimming but very cooling!This is our 2nd stay at this property, we're looking at booking for 2027.

Home had everything you could need for your Costa Rican getaway, from storage containers to spices to play tools for the beach, beds were the most comfortable I’ve had in Costa Rica by far. Neighbour was super friendly and had amazing ideas and options for play. Plenty of areas to shop and lots of wild life near by, white faced and spider monkeys , macaws, ant eaters, blue morphis butterflies all within a short drive. Host was very responsive. Highly recommend

We enjoyed our stay here. The home was spacious and was well equipped and close to the town of Paquera where we could get groceries and a meal if we wanted. The neighbourhood is quiet and the property is secure and you feel like you are living in the forest. The heat pumps in the bedrooms are very appreciated. The pool is refreshing. We would definitely stay here again.

What a great location for our stay in the southern part of the Nicoya Peninsula! Easy drive to everywhere you need to get to. This home was built with much love and alot of hard work!! So many little bonuses that made our stay so great: beach chairs, beach towels, coolers, lunch containers, well-stocked kitchen (including spices and condiments), washer, outdoor hose, star fruit tree …. And of course, the POOL! Was the perfect way to cool off after our day of adventure! Rhonda was a gem of a host! Would highly recommend to anyone wanting a true “home” base. Oh and we absolutely LOVED the bed! So comfortable! Thanks again Rhonda for sharing your home with us! We would definitely stay again.

Get away

This is an outstanding property, I'm glad to say it exceeded my expectations. Paquera CR isn't the tourist mecca, IE an all inclusive. If you want to enjoy CR with a local feel and experience this is a place for you. The owners were responsive to questions and w/recommendations sheet to go. We loved CURU and the wildlife refuge, great hiking trails, great beach..

Love the house

Gorgeous house, my kids loved it very much, lots to do in the area, Rhonda had everything highlighted on a book, of what her favourite places to see were. I would stay here again, and Rhonda was a great host. The house was slightly difficult to find, we showed up super late and my service wasn’t working on my phone…. But we made it in the end.

Rhonda, the host, has tastefully created a very beautiful home in a Costa Rican village. Her pool is exactly the same size and depth that is used for me by my physical therapist. One cannot swim in it, but it is perfect for my six foot body for exercises and walks. If you have any problems or questions, Rhonda and her employee are electronically present to address them as much as they can.

Nice home & lots to do nearby

We stayed here for the entire month of April 2024 and enjoyed the house. During the driest and hottest month in CR, the refreshing pool and reliable AC was appreciated. The home was comfortable and modern, and the outdoor area covered. The living area is all outside like many homes in Costa Rica. Paquera itself is a sleepy town but there is lots to do all around the Penninsula and we took full advantage of all the activities Rhonda recommended. Two things to know - the road kicks up a lot of dust (but there is home in front of this one that blocks it somewhat). And the third bedroom does not have AC just FYI. We did not need it so not an issue for us. There was some noisy building that started up next door but probably just a temporary thing. Owners very nice and responsive. Overall, a nice stay!

The property is very nice, it has big rooms, baths and nice social areas. The upstairs area had a nice space to work, but it doesn't have A/C and the temperatures can be very high. The soroundings are very quiet and it seemed safe. We had problems finding the property because there isn't a sign on the road. The instructions in the reservation did not worked, so I had to go to the main road to find cellphone signal in order to call the owner and then received the correct instructions to get in. On the way out, even when the checkout it's at 11am, the cleaning lady knocked on the door at 8am and started to clean, so we had to leave earlier. I think communication with the person in charge is the main problem, when I talked to the owner she helped me and solved my problem.

It was convenient for the bioluminescent tour and the ferry. However, need to be aware that the upstairs loft room with the bunkbed has NO AC. This is big since we went in their rainy season but it was still hot and muggy in the mid 80's in June. So we didn't use that room and every one camped out downstairs. There's no living room inside it is outside. It was too hot and rainy to use. It is best to arrive during daylight otherwise you will have a hard time locating the gate and property. We couldn't find it on the first try, but eventually found it after a couple of tries. We didn't cook and went out to eat so I didn't try to figure out how to use the stove. The fridge was not working so it was a bit inconvenient. All in all I would probably stay elsewhere next time. There was no availability in the hotel we were looking at.

Cómodas vacaciones.

La casa propiamente, es muy cómoda. Cocina bien equipada, baños espaciosos, suficientes paños y demás artículos. Las habitaciones y las camas son cómodas, aunque éstas, son altas para personas de baja estatura. Piscina adecuada. Comedor falta una mejor adecuación; no hay bancos en el desayunador y la mesa de afuera es pequeña. Hay aire acondicionado en dos habitaciones solamente; esto se resuelve dejando las puertas abiertas de éstas para que el aire circule por toda la casa.
