    About this property

    Romantic Nature Escape

    Waterfront villa with private pool and kitchen
    Designed by famed architect Abraham Valenzuela, this house connects you to nature and to each other in revitalizing ways. Many locals and guests call it one of the finest tropical homes in the region. It overlooks a deep river basin, with ocean views. You experience nature, instead of the sounds, lights and noise of man. The main House is 2 bedrooms and 2 Bathrooms , the Casita has another queens bed and a day bed and a full bathroom with a shower , The Casita is an additional fee In a gated community 12 km north of Nosara with many owner-occupied homes close by. Within the Rio Rosario river basin, which has probably the finest microclimate on Costa Rica's entire 780-mile Pacific Ocean coast. Just minutes from several great restaurants - Hotel Luna Azul, Hotel San Juanillo, Tree Tops B&B - and easy drives to Nosara or Liberia over 3 new bridges built in 2012. This unspoiled coast area is inaccessible no more. House offers dramatic river basin and ocean views, and unforgettable sunsets. Lush grounds surround it with flowering plants, ferns and palms. You hear crashing waves that amplify up the river basin for soothing hypnotic sounds. Watch shimmering light reflections on its 50’ infinity-edge lap pool - always with perfect swimming temperatures and for lounging upon. The house sits 300’ up and 1/2 km back up from the ocean for near perfect year-round temperatures. All concrete construction with exotic wood, copper and stone finishes, the house stays cool all day long. Lush tree canopies offer shade and attract monkeys and birds close. Most Nosara area houses require a/c both night and day, but this house only rarely requires a/c. This means you get to hear the sounds of nature instead of the sounds of electricity, compressors and fans. The house has many exotic stone/copper/wood finish treatments. A large gourmet kitchen with European gas stove with convection oven. Satellite TV, wireless Internet and strong cell phone signals. Alarm system, safe room with renter's safe. Covered carport. Cleaning, pool and landscape services included, and also concierge services too. Two bedrooms sit on opposite ends of the house. The large master suite has a king bed with a tree house-like feel in a tree canopy over decorative ferns and plants below. Its wood/glass walls open to all screen walls to make you feel like you're in a tree house. The master bedroom walls open on three sides to allow refreshing breezes to flow through. A glass shower room opens onto a private deck with outside shower that overlooks gardens below. Guest bedroom has a queen bed with 3/4 bath. Also a full-size bed in gazebo and deluxe daybed on veranda. A/c in both bedrooms, and luxury ceiling fans too. The world-famous Ostional turtle beach is just 2 km south. Famous intermediate and expert surf breaks are close by in Nosara, Ostional and Marbella. The region's best safe swimming and snorkeling beaches are 2 km away in San Juanillo. With the deep lap pool outside of most rooms, the house is not for babies unable to swim. We prefer to rent to one or two couples, or a family of 4 with kids who swim.

      Beautiful house and pool. Super comfortable and well equipped. We will be back!

      Thanks again Sam and Mary, once again we were dazzled by your home! I guess the best review I can offer is to say “we’ll be back... again!”

        A month of paradise in the jungle

        Stunning home and setting! Walking through the courtyard and front door to the view of the pool and private jungle setting takes your breath away. We spent most of our days in the wonderful pool, but the home is furnished beautifully and comfortably. The kitchen was very well equipped, lacking in nothing...and even had instant hot water! We had wanted to experience the rainy season in Costa Rica and we did! A surprise during our month stay was that generally the rain kept to early and late evening so we had sunny/cloudy warm/hot days. As we were advised, bring your bug and mosquito spray......especially this time of year! Another suggestion for those that mosquitos love....bring a light cotton long sleeve shirt to protect yourself. Beautiful fragrant tropical flowers, coatis, frogs and monkeys can be enjoyed all around. On our last day we were treated to a three hour visit from 12 monkeys, including a tiny baby. They ate, played in all the trees around the pool and took naps before heading out for the evening! Yorjani and Maureen who care for the home and pool are so helpful, sweet and interesting. We love them! Some restaurants we intended to visit were closed but we loved Ancient People (as well as the owners), La Luna, Al Chile and for a delicious meal and incredible sunset view go to Lagarta Lodge Hotel. We visited the many beaches and took “bumpy” challenging drives to see the countryside and how the Ticos live. Thank you Sam and Mary!

          Beautiful home and peaceful environment. Lovely to be a part of nature. Delightful.

          The property is beautiful and well maintained. All of the necessary amenities are provided. Very comfortable and a desirable location to rest and get away from it all. No need to look any further. Beautiful architecture and pool. A car is definitely needed as it is not close to a town or beaches or restaurants. On the other hand why leave such a paradise. Be prepared for bugs and possible small critters visiting you. The house is set amidst beautiful vegetation and nature as it is part of a nature reserve. The humans and animals cohabite together in this little paradise. We had a wonderful time. Thanks. Charles

              A restful oasis with magnificent views, a serene infinity pool and elegant rock walls for privacy

              The unique home is nestled in a Nature reserve. Howler monkeys, armadillos and coatis are neighbors. High stonewalls provide privacy and a lovely backdrop for the landscaped garden. Floor to ceiling windows provide magnificent views of the coast and forest.
