About this property

Family & pet friendly with Amazing View

The property is located in the central Pacific area just up from the Puntarenas city area near the small town of San Miguel. We are approximately 1 hour from the San Jose airport or 2 hours from the Liberia airport.

It takes about 15 minutes to the ocean and around 25 minutes to downtown Puntarenas.

We have an infinity pool which overlooks the valley and the ocean.
The room is fully furnished and includes a small kitchenette, bathroom with shower, 2 double beds, a small dining area, a television and sitting area outside the cabin.

There is WiFi internet and telephone available.

We have contacts with several local cabbies that speak English. They will pick you up and drop you off at the airport and will also provide tours of the local attractions for much less than the tour companies. Some of the attractions are canopy tour (zip lining), volcanoes, national parks, coffee plantations, orchid farms, fishing, boat tour to Tortuga Island and many more. We have been on most of the tours and they are good.

On any given day, from the cabin, you can see a large variety of birds with many different colors.

Taxis are relatively cheap and there is a local bus which can be flagged down in front of the property and take you down to the center of Puntarenas for less than $1. The bus lets you off at a good sized market, stores for shopping and is close to the banks with ATM’s.
Close to our property (15 minutes away) there is a farmers market open Friday afternoons and Saturday mornings where you can buy most of the groceries you will need at reasonable prices.
US dollars and the local currency (colones) are used through out the country. If you need any other information let us know and we will get it for you.

Just a stop over
This property is nearly worth the price. We booked it for one night to break up a long drive. The grounds are pretty. The rooms are extremely outdated and could use an army of well trained cleaners. I rely on honest reviews when I book accommodations and I have provided an honest review here.

Average
Property could use updating and better cleaning (cobwebs/ dead bugs). Beds are very firm, bedding could use updating. Exterior lighting is poor, something to keep in mind if you have sight or mobility issues. Tough to find, especially at night. Signage at road and better landmarks on HWY 1 would have been helpful. Ted is very kind, however we would not stay here again.

Nice place to be
Very nice place with a stunning view and the owner doing mostly everything to accommodate and please you. Need a car to get there and it is very secure and 10 to 15 minutes in car from most of the services in stores.
