Casa de la Roca is exactly what we were looking for, a relaxing escape in the jungle. This house is wonderful, the interior is as beautiful as the pristine exterior. Mornings on the roof top, fully furnished patio are a great start to any day; you can watch for birds, butterflies, and other wildlife. If you are up for some adventure, the house is in a wonderful location that adventure is not to far. We decided to go horseback riding into the rain forest to enjoy a swim at the bottom and a jump of the top of a picturesque waterfall, swim at the local beach, and zipline through the trees. For the entire week the afternoons were filled with lounging, swimming, and just enjoying the natural environment around the home. After we enjoyed the superb sunsets, every night, we were able to visit some nice restaurants, then head back to the house for a night cap while star gazing from the pool. This place was just great, the house itself is perfect, the view is the best, and the location is close to many activities and restaurants.
They say you can’t go back however we did and found our second stay at Casa de la Roca as enjoyable as our first! Once again the owners, Paul & Cindy, provided a 5 star experience for us. As other guests have commented, everything is perfection! We simply absorbed the beauty and ambiance around us. You can’t go wrong selecting Casa de la Roca! There is NONE better!
The house was perfect each room had its own bathroom which was absolutely perfect. The views of the sunset every night where perfect. Plenty of great places to eat from fine dining to quick bites however the kitchen is so nice you are able to go down to the local store and pick up food to make your own dinner and enjoy it out on the patio. It was an absolutely perfect week.
My husband and I with our 4 sons, age 14-23, traveled to CR after Christmas and stayed at this lovely home. The communication, logistics and other info from the owner, Paul, as well as property managers, Keith and Karen was easy and extremely helpful. The house is very clean and beautifully appointed. It has everything you need. The kitchen is very well stocked with quality cookware and cooking necessities. The pool is lovely as is the property and landscaping. We felt very secluded and private and totally at home. Beds are super comfy and baths have everything you need. We loved hanging out in the morning on the elevated lookout porch with our coffee. One morning we were visited by an interesting pair of brightly colored parakeets. It was really cool to hear the Howler monkeys in the adjacent forest as we had our coffee or swam in the pool. Great restaurants near by as well. Best meal ever at Citrus which is 10 mins away!! We had a very enjoyable stay and would definitely go back!
Paul and Cindy, We are very happy to share your dream home. Nothing is missing here. The landscaping is great and the house is really comfortable. The view of the mountains, screaming monkeys, toucans, the sea, the village of Ojochal and this starry sky is possible thanks to the location of choice of the property. We lived in several houses in the area and this is by far the most interesting. We are only two, but it is obvious that this house can accommodate more than 6 adults. Each room has a private furnished balcony, a full bathroom and a very comfortable bed. The indoor and outdoor lighting is more than complete, the outdoor shower with its palm tree lane is a must, the infinity pool with sea views is a place you never get tired of. The upscale and fully equipped kitchen is completed with the outdoor BBQ. The balcony on the second level allows an incredible 360 degree view and is the ideal place for morning coffee and aperitif at sunset. We will surely come back year after year, André and Claudia
WOW! My wife and I stayed here for two weeks, and it wasn't even close to long enough. We went down for our anniversary and from the professionalism of the caretakers, the ease with which we got there and back, and the overall stunning beauty of it, we have to say that it changed our lives. This gorgeous three bedroom home with a pool, an observation deck to view 360 degrees the jungle around you, an outdoor shower, along with a gorgeous kitchen, very comfortable beds, and an enormous bathtub (very important for my wife), wowed us. We wanted to get away from it all and relax. We certainly found it here. We had an extremely quiet and restful stay, but total access to a wide array of restaurants and entertainment in Ojachal itself. We were impressed with the quality and variety of cuisine offered in the area. Our two favorites were Exotica and Citrus. Not to mention the easy access to the beach. It's a 10 minute ride down to the road, and you have plenty of beaches to choose from. The place was clean and well maintained. Any questions we had were dutifully handled by our caretakers, and we had total privacy and comfort for ourselves. Do yourself a favor and book a stay here. We definitely plan to as soon as possible.
I don't know how one review could adequately convey how incredible this place is, but I'll try. My husband and I wanted to take a two week vacation together to celebrate our 5th wedding anniversary, and we were lucky enough to take it at Casa de la Roca in Ojochal, Costa Rica. We could not have dreamed up a better place! The house is a gorgeous sanctuary - high up on a hill offering stunning views. It's off the beaten path, but still easily accessible in the small, friendly community in Ojochal. Being in the house offers a feeling of seclusion, but also of safety and security. A gate protects the community, and the wonderfully warm and helpful Karen & Keith are available for any needs that might arise. The house, the yard, the pool, and the view are all stunning. We stayed in the master bedroom, which has the most gorgeous bathtub ever, complete with that unforgettable sunset view. Being in the infinity pool and watching the sun set in the Pacific ocean was an evening ritual we never missed - unless we were catching a different view watching it from the Observation Deck. (We also saw monkeys in the trees behind the Deck! So amazing) Although there are many delicious restaurants in the area (Citrus is my favorite!), we cooked at the house for the majority of our meals and the kitchen is a DREAM! Tons of counter space, top of the line appliances, any kitchen gadget we needed, and even a grill. The beautiful Playa Ventana beach is close by and we were always pleasantly surprised it wasn't more crowded. I really can't gush enough about this house. We wanted to get off the grid and feel like we were the only two people in the world for awhile, and we got that and so much more. We are cherishing our memories, and can't wait for the opportunity to go back and make more!
One of the best properties we have ever rented. High on a hill with expansive 180 degree ocean views, this large brightly sunny home has a magnificent infinity pool. Although the initial drive up is a bit difficult requiring a true 4WD, we quickly got used to the trip up. The home is extremely comfortable, well laid out with an incredible kitchen. There is an induction stove top and every utensil and cooking equipment one could ask for. Sunsets are breathtaking from the pool terrace. It is so amazing we never wanted to leave. The managers were available for any concerns. It is truly a place to return to repeatedly! Also, just down the hill is the town of Ojachal which offers a number of world class restaurants, which in Costa Rica isn’t easy to find.
One of the best houses we have ever rented. Gorgeous house, well laid out and equipped with top of the line kitchen appliances, cookware, and furnishings. Well maintained, fabulous pool and views from everywhere. Three bedrooms but privacy is excellent. Team that handled the logistics and the owner were all available and responsive,
Just returned from Casa de la Roca. The property was just as advertised – only better! The house is furnished with every conceivable convenience one can hope for in a vacation rental – from the kitchen to the bedrooms, deck and facilities! Viewing the sunset from the pool/patio is stunning each evening. We made sure to be present each night as the sun made its descent. And … the mornings are a true delight as nature awakens to the new day. Birds, howler monkeys in the far distance, opening of the flowers as the sun makes its appearance starts each day with a new appreciation of mother nature. And the beaches – just a short drive away. We enjoyed playa Ventana and adventured into the caves as the ocean rushed through. Quite an experience! The tree lined beach makes it the quintessential tropical beach setting. We made many of our food purchases from the local vendors. We enjoyed fresh Mahi Mahi and shrimp from the Ojochal roadside fish monger - his catch fresh from the sea (Friday morning) and cooked on the house grill that night - plus fresh baked breads and pastries from the French bakeries in town. That’s when we wanted to cook! Don’t overlook any of the small restaurants and sodas in the area – just a few minutes from the house. El Castillo restaurant offers a unique cuisine each evening. Enjoy a special treat there. Speak with the chef and his staff. The menu differs each evening. Las Mangales (on the highway just south of Ojochal) is a fabulous soda for lunch. Our group can’t say enough good things about Casa de la Roca. Everyone involved with the property is helpful, and want to make your stay at the house the special get away you look for yet is hard to find. At Casa de la Roca – you’ve found it!!
