I have remodeled the house, and now it's a duplex. This listing is for the entire second floor. Guests will have their own complete apartment and private terrace at their disposal. The lower floor is currently closed, pending renovation. For now, the only people you will encounter on the property is my cohost and friend, Amilcar. There are three cats on the property that pretty much do what they please. Mercutio, Rayas, and Nero remain with the property to keep some of the wildlife at bay. Public transportation is a short walk away, and there is room to park in the driveway. For some people, it's the last paradise. Others may find it too secluded, wild and rustic. I just want to make sure it's the vacation my guests were hoping for. If you're unsure, shoot me an email, and I'd be happy to answer any questions or concerns.

Now, if you're an adventurous soul, are you ready to go someplace where you can relax on the beach all day and fall asleep to the surf pounding on the shore at night Maybe you're a water sports enthusiast and want to know what it's like to really live Island Life Wondering if there's anything left unspoiled and beautiful in the Caribbean Then Casa Costello is where you need to be.

Lie in bed, watching the sea, sip coffee on the terrace with stunning views, spread out in the shade, and enjoy the trades. This place is private and quiet. The yard is all flowers, hammocks, and birds, giving way to the deserted beach you've only imagined in your dreams! (No jellyfish, lots of sand dollars, star fish, and sea-glass.)
Rustic, colorful, and original, you've never stayed at a place like this! We have little red crabs living in the garden, (and occasionally wander into the house by mistake.) There are numerous birds and lizards to watch in the yard all day, and my cats are always on patrol to keep the wildlife at bay.

As for excursions, it's already a kite surfer's paradise, and everything is available at a reasonable distance. Let us know, and we can help you find your favorite adventure! We recycled the original house materials to provide the landscaping. The paths are made from beach stones and bamboo, the shells highlight the garden, the sea glass in the shower...all of it is our recycling of what was originally there, and mother nature continues to provide for our use.

Sustainable ecotourism is important to me. I refuse to put up a giant concrete wall to separate my home from the beach and the people. I like the sound of the sea, I like the locals that help me take care of the place, and I like my salty window screens. I want to feel the sand beneath my feet, taste the fresh fruit and fish. I love being a part of the community in Las Canas.

I pay a price for the close proximity to the sea, sure. Every hinge or latch rusts within days, and I have to replace everything electrical on a regular basis...is it worth the hassle and work Absolutely! I bought the last piece of paradise, and I'm sharing it with the world. The reviews say it better than I can. Just think....they were reviewing the old house....and now it's all brand new!!!!
