This was only a one night stay, but we would have been happy to stay longer. The property is lovely. We enjoyed dinner and breakfast. We slept well after a long day of travel to Costa Rica. The room and shower were clean and the view was spectacular.

Endroit de rêve. Vue à couper le souffle! J’avais crainte de dormir sans a/c mais la brise des montagnes est nettement plus confortable. Merci pour le sejour.

Hello all and welcome!

I was born in Manchester (United) England, moved to Toronto and now live in Mexico and Costa Rica. After 40 years working in Scotiabank, I am now enjoying the active "retirement" stage of my life! We have operated the villas for four years, have greeted 1,000's of guests from around the world and are amongst the highest ranking review ratings on rental platforms in Costa Rica.

My Costa Rica based business partner, Dan Gendron (Montreal Canadiens fan), our property manager John Graves and I strive to make your stay seamless, stress free and full of pura vida! We communicate rapidly, give you the info you need to traverse Costa Rica and provide you with helpful advice on places to visit.

So just relax, kick off your shoes, enjoy the scenery, the wildlife, the weather and the food. Our house is your house!

Why they chose this property

We are a working fruit farm located on a mixed agricultural and jungle property located on a scenic 130 acres in canton San Mateo. Peace and quiet, wide open spaces, fresh air, and amazing views of the surrounding jungle and mountains. When you park and walk up the steps to your villa, the views will astound you. The essence of "pura vida!"
