We spent 1-1/2 weeks at this beautiful house in the mountains overlooking Tarcoles, CR. The view from the back decks was spectacular, including the valley below, the Pacific Ocean with the Nicoya Peninsula in the distance. The sunsets were mesmerizing and we enjoyed identifying the many types of birds in the area. The partially covered deck allowed us to sit outside, even in the heat of the day. The pools on both levels were very nice and refreshing. The house was well-furnished with bedrooms and ensuite baths on both levels and a beautiful kitchen, living and dining area. Other amenities included an electric grill and a fully-equipped laundry room, wifi, and TV. Nearby attractions included the Crocodile Bridge over the Tarcoles River, and Carara National Park, with Jaco 20 min south and Puntarenas 1 hr north. The host was very responsive and helped us out in a number of ways with information, recommendations and provisioning the house. We enjoyed our time there immensely and highly recommend it.
