Architectual wonder in the hills
Wow, what a place. We arrived after dark and had no idea what would greet us in the morning. This architectual wonder is surrounded by teak trees as far as the eye can see. The howler monkeys and birds are right out your backdoor at sunrise to greet the new day. This is a true gem and just the place to get take the family "off the grid". No internet, no phones, no TV's, but plenty of adventure.
The caretaker, Martin. guided us on horseback thru the jungle to a private swimming hole on the property. We spent hours walking up and down the river, and sitting/swimming in the pools. The kids had a blast. Super fun and very refreshing..
Plenty of activities to enjoy: Drink Costa Rican coffee, drink Costa Rican beer, eat beans and rice, play cards, read a book, do a crossfit WOD in the yard, handle a machet, swim in a river, jump off a waterfall, ride a horse, make friends with random dogs, make friends with wonderful locals, and take in the unbelievable scenery.
This is the perfect "off the grid" family stop before (or after) your visit to the Costa Rican beaches about 45 minutes away. Jake and Erica are wonderful hosts to work with and will provide you all the necessary details to find this hidden gem. We will be back for sure..
