Amazing final days at the Sloth House

This is one of the most unique properties we have ever stayed in. We saw sloths, iguanas and tons of other wildlife. The pool was so nice and refreshing after our long days. Jeff was the best host and sent us tons of recommendations throughout our stay. Highly recommend and would stay here again.

Pictures in the listing represent when property was new. There has been quite a few changes and allot of maintenance needing done now, especially to the pool area. Cleanliness and rodent proofing of the house hasn’t been a priority. All in all not a good experience. Ended up leaving 2 days into a 7 day stay

Thanks for sharing your experice Chad. Is it possible the dropping you found were of geckos, as I had guests right before and after your stay, and no word of rodents. Is it possible everything has grown, and is actually nicer then before. We like to think so, So plants do grow, and we don't update pictures just for that. Its actually never looked better. The garden is amazing by the pool. I know, as I enjoyed it after you left. Cheers!/

Lovely Stay in the Jungle!

Jeff’s place is a labor of love from the moment you arrive to departure. He designed every inch of this home and it’s clear that he values an open space experience. We enjoyed waking up in the jungle and drinking coffee on the viewing deck while seeing the tucans fly by. Our first night we even saw a sloth! If staying here, do NOT forget your bug spray. We called this a glamping vacation because you are completely surrounded by nature and critters are everywhere so be mindful of this. Jeff was extremely responsive throughout our stay and would periodically send us great recommendations in the area. I do not recommend walking the street alone at night past 9 pm, so rent a Tuk Tuk. Other than that, it was a very pleasant stay and we highly recommend it! This is an experience you will never forget.

My wife and I are nature lovers and birders and this place was absolutely ideal for that. The observation deck is wonderful. From the deck and property grounds we observed numerous birds, including two varieties of tucans, howler monkeys by dozens, and a sloth mommy with baby. If you are looking for this sort of thing we highly recommend it. If you are looking for AC and luxury accommodations you should look elsewhere, but it was perfect for our style and what we were seeking The host Jeff is great and is available next door. He was highly accommodating and helpful.

Magical Treehouse

Jeff's treehouse is absolutely gorgeous! The craftsmanship and design is awesome and the house itself is so comfortable. We were able to enjoy coffee in the morning looking out over the trees and see toucans and parrots and a sloth. In the evening we enjoyed listening to the toads while relaxing w a bottle of wine. The location is super convenient to town but when at the house you feel miles away. Jeff is a great host supplying us with a bottle of wine and local chocolate to get our stay started. Great communication and easy check in and check out. We cannot recommend enough! A must stay!

LE REFUGE DU PARESSEUX

Accueil chaleureux par son propriétaire, Jeff nous faisant découvrir ce loft suspendu dans la jungle et sa vue panoramique sur la flore et la faune de TALAMANCA qui vous accorde bien des surprises, paresseux suspendu dans son arbre à l'arrière de la maison, des toucans, des écureuils et une famille de sarapiqui aperçue devant la piscine ainsi qu'un couple de poules d'eau s'abreuvant dans la piscine. Belle maison conçue par son propriétaire avec une climatisation naturelle dans laquelle on se sent bien et déconnecté du monde. En somme, un petit paradis terrestre à 500 mètres de la Mer des Caraïbes qu'il faut absolument découvrir ainsi que son village très animé le soir.
