CARGO - Costa Ricas Coolest Container stay

CARGO is my recently completed container project in Sabanilla ,10 minutes from the artisanal town of Sarchi where hand crafted furniture has been made for a century. Each container is very unique and is furnished with many of my creations and has a hot tub for your enjoyment. We are at an altitude of 3900 feet with incredible views of the central valley and with warm daytime temperatures and cool nightstemperatures. We are also only 35 minutes from the Juan Santa Maria Airport, 1hour from the Poas Volcano and 35 minutes from Los Bajos del Toro where you can find many different waterfalls.
The vacation home features a kitchen and space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Other standard amenities include a fireplace and a coffee maker.
