My husband and I just stayed 6 nights at this little gem on the mountainside. I will say the photos are spot on, but it’s even better in real life. Our stay began with meeting Trina, their delightful property manager who went above and beyond the call of duty to rescue us off a treacherous mountain road in the pouring rain as it was getting dark, and the road was flooded (crazy, but true story!). She made us feel safe and welcome at a scary time in a country we didn’t know, and was patient to allow us a quick trip at the grocery store to get a few supplies to tie us over to morning. We arrived at the property after dark, so to awaken the next day to the sounds of jungle birds and howler monkeys and then look out the window at the breathtaking view for the first time was simply amazing! It would have been easy to stay right where we were the whole time! The feeling of calm and relaxation we felt as we gazed at the view and listened to the jungle was truly a gift to our souls. But alas! There were beaches to discover (Ventanas and Uvita were our favorites), Jungle ATV tour to explore the mountainous region and visit a coffee farm. and OSA canopy tour zip line nearby for some adventure. The road is definitely not for the faint of heart, but becomes easier with each pass up and down the mountain. Try some fish tacos at Los Laurealas! For an amazing dinner experience, inquire with Kurà, the resort up the hill. Trina arranged for us to celebrate our 25th anniversary dinner there. The service was impeccable, and the view at sunset was to die for. Don’t let the rainy season scare you away. We were able to enjoy everything we had planned without rains changing any of them. So if rainy season is best for your travels, come! You won’t be disappointed. Jacqui, the homeowner was so easy to work with as we made arrangements, and checked in with us upon arrival. We are already dreaming about when we can return.
