The most beautiful experience of our lives. Hard to get to but well worth it. Between the Monkeys, the Parrots and the sea it was like out of a movie. Great relaxation!!! Should be a movie set!!! Manager on site was wonderful and very helpful.

I strongly recommend this house! We spent an amazing week at the beachfront house with our two sons (6 & 7 years old) and friends couple, and it was perfect! The house is close to great surf breaks, trails to explore the jungle, tide pooling in front of the house, patio to relax in the ocean breeze and celebrate with friends... the list goes on! Everything was ready when we got there and the local host present on site made us feel safe. Don't hesitate, book that house now if available! Perfect tropical beachfront experience in Costa Rica! Thanks Ted!

Very private and beautiful beach. Do need a 4 WD, or a high clearance vehicle, to do the access road. Monkeys and macaws in hte yard and on the road, and great waterfall hikes nearby.

We visited Costa Rica for 12 days and spent time in three different places. This was my favorite place. The wildlife just outside the door is unbelievable. We saw two sloths within 100 feet of the property. Scarlet Macaws, monkeys, toucan, anteater, iguanas all within walking distance. Falling asleep to the pounding surf at night was amazing. Waking up to the sounds of the jungle was even more spectacular. Ted's place is a gem. We will be back.

Great Location at the Intersection of the Ocean and the Jungle

We had a great stay. Lovely location, comfortable beds, great place to relax between the sea and jungle. We enjoyed daily visits from the scarlet macaws, a walk to the waterfall, all four species of monkeys, etc. We had a minor problem with hot water and the oven didn't work consistently, but the onsite caretakers worked on it. They did a nice job, cleaning the house once during our stay, and doing laundry for us (for a small fee). They even picked up groceries for us as needed (it's a little pricey going in and out of town). We loved relaxing on the large sofa or in the hammocks and reading. The ocean breeze kept the heat and bugs down till evening, and then it was easy to curl up under the mosquito nets and continue reading. The ocean and stormy weather sounds actually lulled me to sleep! I would definitely stay here again.

Pictures don't do it justice! The perfect combination of remote and civilized. Everth was great, took us on a fantastic hike, Chillia's cooking was excellent, the two houses were great, open-air and in a groomed jungle setting. Beautiful view from the beach house across the "yard" past palm trees, figs, and hammocks to perfect blue surf beach. Ted, the owner, was communicative and helpful. Would go back in a heartbeat.

As far as I'm concerned it's one of the most beautiful properties in the area! You need to be aware that the ride out there is an adventure!, an Adventure full of The wonderful surroundings, animals species of birds, 730+ varieties of trees and the amazing ocean! There was nothing spared in The layout of the buildings on the property that can handle large parties or smaller groups-as there are two different houses on the property better available to rent giving any potential renters the opportunity to have guests or to have large family events or gatherings there! We met so many nice people all around the area were so helpful! And again the owners of this property were so easy to work with and she hear we met so many nice people all around the area were so helpful!
