Tuesday - Friday group

The house had everything we needed. Located a short walk down the driveway and across a dirt road took us to a beautiful beach on the Pacific. The home’s pool was very clean and refreshing. Perfect place!Debbie the property manager is incredibly responsive and helpful. With her assistance we had a surf fishing guide as well as a wonderful private guide for Manuel Antonio National Park.

Nice but

The house is nice and big and is in a very nice location across from the beach. While we’re there, the waves were too big to swim, and there were lots of bugs that were very tiny and bit our legs resulting in a lot of itching! The really big problem with the house is that there is no comfortable place downstairs nor upstairs to sit. The seats upstairs were very stiff and uncomfortable and downstairs there are only dining room chairs which are only comfortable for a while. We enjoyed our time at the house, but would’ve enjoyed it much more, if there were good places to sit and relax! Debbie & Deems were very responsive.

13 Nights at the Palo Seco Treehouse

This was our second stay at the Palo Seco Treehouse. The area is lovely and quiet, with the beach just across the road. The house was perfect for our five adult family members and had all of the amenities we needed. Debbie and Deems were great hosts, providing timely information prior to our stay and responding quickly if we needed anything once we arrived. I would highly recommend this property!

Beautiful home!

The check in process was flawless! Debbie and her husband were absolutely wonderful! They helped us plan excursions and even let us tour their home and showed us the monkeys and sloth nearby. It was perfect for our family! We would definitely recommend this house to all! The beach was like our own private paradise as we barely saw anyone out entire stay. Thanks again for everything!

Awesome House

This is a perfect getaway for those looking for a secluded place. Grocery store is not far, and the drive to tourist attractions are not far at all either. For those who are older and love visiting the beach ... The picture of the walkway to the beach, which is listed on the VRBO site is NOT updated. The walkway is overgrown and you have to clear the small path each day due to coconuts and palm limbs that have fallen. Also, there is no couches located in the house, as far as comfort seating is concerned. Just hard benches which are only located on the second floor and they r very small.

On the beach with a pool!

We got exactly what we were looking for in our rental... on the beach with a pool!! We could walk out our front door, cross the dirt road and be on the beach. We would walk the beach each morning and if you saw 5 people that was a busy day!. The house was absolutely wonderful and the pool did not disappoint!! It was a plunge pool and the water was always warm enough that you could just walk in and enjoy sitting on the bench with a drink in hand. Loved going out to the ocean at 5:15 every night to watch the sunset and then go back to make dinner or go out to a few different restaurants along the beach... our favourite was Mar y sol... everything was good there. Communication with the property managers was wonderful and Deems and Debbie always responded quickly to any questions we had for them. All in all we would definitely come back, it was exactly what we expected and what we needed for our 3 week stay.

Stay at the Treehouse

We had a wonderful stay! The location is nice and quiet, right on the beach and close to Quepos. The beach is clean and soft sand. Water great for body boarding. Only downside is there is no real comfy place to sit and relax. The property manager is fantastic. Would stay here again.

Tree House

Nancy was a fantastic host and catered to our every need. Great location and a virtually private oceanfront beach to enjoy. Nancy suggested ideas for our 7-year-old granddaughter and introduced us to a local guide and surf instructor. We would definitely return. Thanks Nancy for a very memorable stay.

Private oasis

This remote beautiful home was a wonderful way to unplug. Literally had the beach and ocean to ourselves the entire week. The sand was dark which was unique and ocean was definitely swimmable. At least one walkable restaurant. The house was fully clean, stocked and exactly like the pictures. Loved using the grill. Debbie was an excellent host, great communication and went the extra mile to make us feel welcome. Loved our stay!!

Treehouse is Beautiful

Very nice home, clean with a nice pool and deck furniture. Beach is across the road, no development along the shore for miles. Not particularly swimmable. Flat beach, easy to walk. Not much to do in Paritta, 40 minutes from Jaco and Manuel Antonio National Reserve.

So much fun! We had a group of six (3 couples) which worked out perfectly with the 3 separate bedrooms and bathrooms. The Treehouse was clean, secure, and updated. Monkeys, iguanas, frogs, dogs, etc all came to visit us on different days. Nancy (the property manager) was very kind and communicative. A wonderful place to stay!

Amazing location

My Husband and I spent a week a here and everything was absolutely perfect! The house has everything you need and being only steps from the beach was awesome. The water is a little rough for swimming but we enjoyed boogie boarding and utilized the pool when we just wanted to relax. Nancy is a great host and recommend the bar/restaurant down the road (coldest beer in Costa Rica!). The family that owns the restaurant were so welcoming and the food was absolutely delicious, we stopped by just about everyday for either lunch or dinner. If you are looking for a great house on the beach, look no further!

Tranquility in the treehouse

For our first time in Costa Rica, the treehouse was exactly what we wanted. We spent the month of February relaxing by the pool, playing in the ocean, and taking long walks on the beach. Sunsets were stunning. Manuel Antonio National Park is a must see. The fruit and vegetable stands in Parrita are great places for fresh food. We shopped at the local bakery and butcher. We also visited Jaco and Quepos more than once. The restaurant at the beginning of the road is amazing! The hosts, Debbie and Deems, were very knowledgeable about the area and available for any questions.

Hidden gem

We loved our stay at Palo seco treehouse! It is off the beaten path but not too far from some of the busier cities. We were fortunate enough to see monkeys right in the front yard a few days in a row and loved the view of the beach from the property. Nancy was welcoming and wonderful! She had a basket full of goodies to get us going on the first day of our stay and was always available to answer any questions for us. One thing that would make the place even better is adding a couch in the living area to relax after a day of Costa Rican adventures.
