Away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Come enjoy our little piece of paradise.
The pool and living area is completely covered. So enjoy being outside with protection from the sun. This also makes it the perfect house during rainy season!

We are located just outside of the small friendly town of Paquera. It's just a 3 minute drive to the center of Paquera that has all the modern conveniences. There are 3 grocery stores, a pharmacy, a variety of restaurants, bars, ATM, delicious bakeries, and a great coffee shop.

The house is conveniently located just a few minutes from the Puntarenas ferry. From there, you can explore the San Jose area, Monteverde, Arenal, La Fortuna, Jaco, or many other popular sites. Check the ferry schedules to maximize your time.

We are completely fenced in with one other house, so you can close the gate at night for added security and privacy.

In the late afternoon, listen for the macaws to fly by. You can't miss their loud squawk! We have also had visits by some beautiful green parrots and howler monkeys in the nearby trees.

There is a lot to keep you busy if you want to explore the area. And of course there are multiple uncrowded beaches to visit if you want to swim and relax. You could visit a new beach every day for a week and never drive more than 25 minutes.

Curu Wildlife refuge is about 10 minutes from the house. From there you can hike for miles, kayak, horseback ride, take a scuba diving, snorkeling or fishing tour.

If you love turtles, check out the turtle rescue in Tambor about 25 minutes away. Another day you may want to take a boat ride out to Tortuga island. Or if you love surf towns, head to Santa Theresa for the day or Jaco right across the water.

Montezuma is a must! Head out early and hike the waterfall. Then have some lunch and check out the shops. It's about 45 minutes from the house.

You'll be right at home in this house that was made out of a 40' shipping container. It's insulated with A/C in the 2 king bedrooms, has hot water on demand throughout the entire house, and a washing machine in the back.

The kitchen is well equipped with a microwave, coffee maker, crock pot, rice cooker, gas stove, toaster, and blender. There is also an outdoor area with a sink and a built in charcoal grill.

You will also have use of 2 bicycles, a snorkel set, beach chairs, beach towels, a cooler, a beach umbrella, pool floaties and yoga mats.

    The property is very nice, it has big rooms, baths and nice social areas. The upstairs area had a nice space to work, but it doesn't have A/C and the temperatures can be very high. The soroundings are very quiet and it seemed safe. We had problems finding the property because there isn't a sign on the road. The instructions in the reservation did not worked, so I had to go to the main road to find cellphone signal in order to call the owner and then received the correct instructions to get in. On the way out, even when the checkout it's at 11am, the cleaning lady knocked on the door at 8am and started to clean, so we had to leave earlier. I think communication with the person in charge is the main problem, when I talked to the owner she helped me and solved my problem.

    Enjoyed the home. Roomy. The beds were VERY comfortable. Was glad there were portable beach chairs, an ice chest, and towels and floats. There was even a phone protector. Very well thought out home. The outdoor living area was VERY comfortable and we had some nice naps out there. We also enjoyed the fresh fruit right there in the yard

    Rhonda, the host, has tastefully created a very beautiful home in a Costa Rican village. Her pool is exactly the same size and depth that is used for me by my physical therapist. One cannot swim in it, but it is perfect for my six foot body for exercises and walks. If you have any problems or questions, Rhonda and her employee are electronically present to address them as much as they can.

    We enjoyed our stay here. The home was spacious and was well equipped and close to the town of Paquera where we could get groceries and a meal if we wanted. The neighbourhood is quiet and the property is secure and you feel like you are living in the forest. The heat pumps in the bedrooms are very appreciated. The pool is refreshing. We would definitely stay here again.

    It was convenient for the bioluminescent tour and the ferry. However, need to be aware that the upstairs loft room with the bunkbed has NO AC. This is big since we went in their rainy season but it was still hot and muggy in the mid 80's in June. So we didn't use that room and every one camped out downstairs. There's no living room inside it is outside. It was too hot and rainy to use. It is best to arrive during daylight otherwise you will have a hard time locating the gate and property. We couldn't find it on the first try, but eventually found it after a couple of tries. We didn't cook and went out to eat so I didn't try to figure out how to use the stove. The fridge was not working so it was a bit inconvenient. All in all I would probably stay elsewhere next time. There was no availability in the hotel we were looking at.

    This is an outstanding property, I'm glad to say it exceeded my expectations. Paquera CR isn't the tourist mecca, IE an all inclusive. If you want to enjoy CR with a local feel and experience this is a place for you. The owners were responsive to questions and w/recommendations sheet to go. We loved CURU and the wildlife refuge, great hiking trails, great beach..

    Our stay was great. The home is very clean and close to town, beaches, activities. Host communication was top notch - she was very responsive. We appreciated the beach chairs, cooler, floaters, and boogie boards - made our beach day so comfortable! Beds extremely comfortable. Would stay again.

    We loved the location for birds and privacy. There is another home on the property, but thankfully no one stayed there. It was a challenge to get to the beaches as the roads we bad....We had lots of shade and the plunge pool was refreshing

    Gorgeous house, my kids loved it very much, lots to do in the area, Rhonda had everything highlighted on a book, of what her favourite places to see were. I would stay here again, and Rhonda was a great host. The house was slightly difficult to find, we showed up super late and my service wasn’t working on my phone…. But we made it in the end.

    This place is well-equipped and is in a good location; just a short drive from some good tourist activities and nice places to eat. Rhonda is nice and a good communicator!
