The great things about this place were the view and seeing the monkeys up close. This could be a really great place to stay if some things were taken care of.
First, our contact gave us the wrong address to drive to, to find the house. We got lost. Then, we had to wait for our contact to get out of work to meet up with us to bring us to the house.
Second, we were not informed ahead of our visit that the internet had been cut off because someone had stolen wires to the whole town. This was known before we drove down. Since we had kids who were in school remotely and an online job we needed to check in on, this made our visit less enjoyable. We had to drive in and find a restaurant to get our stuff done every day. It was a nuisance. One of the reasons we picked this house was because it had internet. We would have liked the option to cancel or to know beforehand so that we could get things done ahead of time i.e. to better prepare.
Third, when we showed up, we were informed that something didn't work(can't remember what) and that the toilet made a sound all the time and that it was something that needed to be fixed.
Fourth, some of the beds had uncomfortable mattresses. If they upgraded the mattresses it would be a plus.
Fifth, the front gate was a little hard to open and in the end we couldn't get it closed.
Lastly, spraying for bugs. We encountered some cockroaches, and some other small bugs in the bathtub. Yeah, we know Costa Rica is full of bugs but we had stayed in other places and didn't have this occur.
It is a beautiful location. Just needs someone that can keep up on upkeep and be available locally. Having to speak to owners who are absent and not completely forthcoming was a downer.
