A very peaceful private place with a jungle feel

My husband and I stayed a week at Casa Verde. The cabin is very eclectic/rustic, but had everything we needed. Annie the owner was extremely easy to get in contact with and is very helpful with any questions we had.If you want a laid back get away close to the beach and within walking distance to restaurants, we can recommend 100%! Thanks Annie!

Relaxing Stay

My husband and I stayed 5 days at Casa Verde. We had a very relaxing time there. The town is very small and everything is in walking distance. However, if you get a lot at the bigger grocery store, you might want to ask for them to deliver it for you. The beach is very close by. We bought two beach chairs to use while we were there and left them for others to use since there weren’t any. A few things to know: First, this house is very basic, just the essentials, no extras. Next, the only AC is in the upstairs bedroom and it can get quite hot in the house. There is a nice outside covered area in front, but know that the neighbors are very close by and you will be able to hear them outside. You will also be visited by sweet kitties out there and might see hummingbirds, howler monkeys, toucans, and agouti. Bring along activities you can do in the evening if you’re not into the nightlife. The downstairs bedroom can get hot and the bed is quite hard. Also, no toilet paper can be flushed at the house or anywhere in town. Just want people to be aware of that. Annie was great! We only needed to contact her twice for things and she was very prompt getting back to us and solving our issues. Overall, we had a great trip and really saw a lot of wonderful animals, ate delicious food, and met delightful people!

Wonderful!

It was all we expected and more! Beautiful area to stay in. Just a short walk to the beach and many restaurants. Downtown is just a few blocks away, plenty of shops, stores and restaurants there to choose from. Annie was very helpful with anything we needed and was a wonderful host! If you are wanting to embrace the Costa Rican life, Cahuita is a must!

Amazing relaxing getaway

Annie met us when we arrived and was so friendly and helpful. The place was exactly how it was digitally presented and was clean, had plenty of beautiful room and even a perfectly working air conditioned bedroom upstairs. The town was quaint and everyone we encountered was friendly. We were there on off season which left it so wonderfully quiet and devoid of any type of touristy feel. Would highly recommend Casa Verde and plan on coming back at some point!

Delightful, relaxing get-away

Spent two weeks at Casa Verde. House with all we needed for cooking, very comfortable bed in main bedroom, comfortable seats outside on the porch on which we spent hours, wi-fi, all we needed for an enjoyable stay. The casa a short three-minute walk to the beach, so great for ocean time. Annie attentive, responsive, knowledgeable if we had questions, and shared information on local events. We. hope to return.

First the hot Anne is wonderful. Any problems we had were quickly resolved. She also was very helpful with tours and taxis. She went beyond expectations. The house is very nice. Upstairs bedroom with AC was very nice for sleeping. The grounds are lush and the patio was a convenient place for breakfast and afternoon snacks. Location is very convenient close to beach and some nice restaurants. We would stay again if we are in the Cahuita area. Highly recommend the Casa Verde.

A true treasure in Cahuita

From the immediate initial contact to instructions beforehand, to several messages during our stay with info on local activities - yoga classes, nightly entertainment, farmer’s market & more. … Annie was the super host! Casa Verde was exactly what we were looking for..quiet & beauty. The home was clean & welcoming. The spacious master bedroom had A/C & a comfortable king bed facing a small balcony overlooking a garden area. We love to cook & this kitchen came well equipped - from a coffee maker, cheese graters, assortment of pots and pans and even a blender. (If you like fresh fresh, there is a great fish market in Puerto Viejo). There are several small grocery stores, bakeries, butcher shop & a Sunday morning farmer’s market in Cahuita . There was no shortage of fabulous places to eat with true Caribbean flavours…pasta, sushi, chicken, fish and some of the best pizza. The outdoor space under a covered patio was our favourite spot to enjoy an early morning coffee while listening to the howler monkeys, and the variety of birds & their songs. We seen toucans, Mealy parrots, hummingbirds, Social Flycatchers, & even one very large iguana..all from our courtyard. Casa Verde is less than a 5 minute walk to the beach where a sunrise can be enjoyed and if lucky enough, find a beautiful sand dollar. We loved our stay here and would highly recommend Casa Verde to anyone wanting a good base while exploring beautiful Cahuita and surrounding areas.

Cahuita getaway

We stayed a couple of nights @ casa verde before venturing further south to meet up with the remainder of our group. We loved the atmosphere, tranquility, close proximity to beach and town. Most of all we enjoyed Annie’s hospitality and expertise in what to enjoy nearby. My husband and I were thrilled to enjoy Annie’s place and the surroundings. We definitely enjoyed getting to know Annie and definitely plan on making Costa Rica one of our vacation destinations!

Not enough words

There is so much to say about this wonderful experience . Imagine arriving to your host waiting outside of a beautiful wooden gate lush greens all around The VRBO description does not even do this place justice . super beautiful, comfortable , a screaming monkey family can be heard from the trees, and yes we named them and took photos of not only them but toucans as well, a 2 minute walk to restaurants, watching the ocean as you enjoy a meal , cross the road and a beautiful dark sand beach, with water so warm , it's like taking a bath. . The hostess is one of the warmest persons you will ever meet. We loved it and will definitely return to see Annie and Cahuita!

Wonderful 2 Week Vacation!

Our first ever 2 week vacation was spent here, and we loved it! Annie is the best host. She is also a travel agent and helped us plan some excursions. Although she lives in the apartment/duplex behind the house, she has her own personal entrance to the back yard so you never see or hear her. We loved drinking coffee outside every morning. We loved listening to the waves crash against the shore. We loved walking to the beach to swim every day. We loved how close the restaurants and bars were. We loved walking into Cahuita for shopping and more restaurants. We loved how friendly everyone was. We loved seeing the monkeys, sloths, birds, butterflies, flowers, and trees that were different from our norm. Casa Verde was clean and efficient. The kitchen had a stove/oven but we didn't use it. It had a toaster oven that we used often. It could have used a microwave for ease, but honestly the toaster oven was just fine. The kitchen was stocked with cookware, serving pieces, storage containers, etc. The refrigerator was cold and the freezer had ice trays for ice.. The king sized bed was comfy. The bedroom a/c cooled the room down quickly. Can you tell we loved it here? We will see you again Annie!

Central location in Cahuita, close to the beach

My family and I were happy with our stay at Annie's place during our trip to Cahuita. The house was clean, well-appointed, and only a short walk from the beach. There are many restaurants and bars within 5-10min walk. The AC in the upstairs bedroom was a lifesaver since we're not used to the humidity on the Caribbean coast of CR. The downstairs bedroom has only a fan. If you happen to visit during a local holiday, make sure to pack some earplugs as the house has no window glass, and the downside of the central location is that you can hear all the parties around you.

About the host

Hosted by Annie Bestwick

Host profile image
I am originally from Australia and moved to Calgary, Canada in 2002. In April 2008 I went on a surfing vacation to Costa Rica and fell in love with the country, its friendly people and laid back way of life.

In July 2008 I moved back to Costa Rica and started working with a Costa Rican Travel Agency. This allowed me to continue traveling around the country and also to introduce the country to other people wanting to travel in Central America.
I still work in the Travel Industry and now have my own company specializing in Costa Rica and Nicaragua, Costa Rica Unique and Boutique. I would be delighted to assist you in booking your travel plans in and around Costa Rica and Nicaragua

Why they chose this property

After traveling all over Costa Rica and living in San Jose I decided to move to the Caribbean Coast and Cahuita was the natural choice. It is a beachside community with the stunning combination of beautiful beaches surrounded by lush rain forest. There is an amazing National Park where you can see monkeys, sloths, iguanas, caimans and a variety of birdlife
Cahuita is also known for its amazing snorkeling.
I love the position of Casa Verde which is located just outside the village of Cahuita and is a short stroll or bike ride to restaurants, bars, beaches and yoga classes

What makes this property unique

I fell in love with Casa Verde because great access to the beach, the village of Cahuita but at the same time the gardens and hammock area provide a tropical respite from the every day world.
