** Please be aware that check-in is from 12 till 6pm. If your flight lands after 12:00pm, then we advise against trying to get to us the same day you fly in. We are 4 hours from San Jose. You also need to allow time for customs and immigration, recuperating your rental car, and stops along the way (lunch, grocery shopping), making for a long day. It does get dark at 6pm, and if it is your first time to Costa Rica, it’s best to drive in daylight hours only. We will gladly recommend accommodations nearby the airport.**

NOTES
**A 4x4 vehicle is required for your stay. Our community roads are well maintained and easy to navigate, but they are dirt roads, and some parts are steep.

Jungle living at it's finest!

Just returning home from 3 glorious weeks in Paradise! This, our 10th annual trip to the Dominical, Uvita, Ohochal area have found a place we will come back to! Situated in the middle of a mountainous forest, our beautiful house was the perfect retreat for anyone who is looking for a relaxing, yet energizing experience. Relaxing because of the expansive views of the rainforest in all it's diverse glory. The absolute energy of the sun as it crests over the mountain into the kitchen and pool area every single morning! This place has it all when you're talking about location and beauty, but what really takes them over the top are the perfect hosts! Lorna and Frank were no only the most gracious, efficient,. and helpful hosts ever, they are people I now consider friends! Words do not properly describe this excellent place to experience Costa Rica

Magnificent Hidden Beauty!

Dave and I had an amazing time. The house was exactly as described and had everything we needed. If we never left the house we would have had the time of our lives taking wildlife photos and enjoying the pool and home. We did some amazing tours and spent time when we were not at the home enjoying the local resturant at the bottom of the mountain. The food was amazing and Vanesa and Doney are lovely people with a wealth of information if you are looking for things to see and places to go. Maurice at the local fruit and vegetable stand had some great produce. Costa Rica is a beautiful country with very warm and friendly people. We highly recommend this home especially if you are into photography of wildlife. We had the time of our lives!! Lorraine and Dave Dewey

About the host

Hosted by Lorna

My partner and I fell in love with Costa Rica many years ago. We finally realized our dream and moved to Costa Rica to start a new chapter in our lives. We found a different way of life, enjoying the outdoors, discovering a wide variety of plants and trees, photographing wildlife in its natural environment, making friends with expats and many Ticos and enjoying the Pura Vida way of life.

We travelled and lived in several countries, discovered different cultures and languages, and we love to meet and share moments with people, but one thing we really enjoy doing is discovering little rental gems. This is what we want to share with you, by offering you the experience of a luxurious jungle getaway. You will be immersed in the vastness of the jungle, caressed by the valley breeze, lulled by the whisper of the river, and surrounded by wildlife while living in luxury and safety.

Why they chose this property

Lagunas de Baru is an exclusive and beautiful mountain community comprised of Ticos and foreigners. Even though the community has over 100 homes, every home is secluded and private, while knowing that your neighbor isn't far away in case of a problem.
There are many dirt roads that you can hike and see all the wild animals and birds you'll find in Manuel Antonio!
