About this property

Beautiful, Contemporary Private Art/Yoga Retreat Home In Paradise!

Very contemporary open art filled home, three bedrooms each with private indoor/outdoor bath offering beautiful views of both the ocean and mountains from high on a hill. A true experience of being in and surrounded by nature yet in bathed in elegance and art. The location of this property is enough out of town to offer total privacy and yet close enough to get to town and the beach quickly. The serenity is amazing, the views are magic! Due to being high on a hill, there is always a breeze and less mosquitos. The infinity pool invites you to laze or swim laps while you gaze at the ocean. You can literally walk into the pool from both the living room area as well as the master suite. The gourmet kitchen, with lots of amenities, including an ice cream maker, has sliding windows that open up to the mountains so when you are preparing food, you have wonderful views. The yoga deck/art/massage studio, on top is the crowning jewel! You feel like you are on top of the world with a 360 degree view of ocean and mountains and sky, nothing else besides lots of monkeys and birds! Our little family of monkeys traverse the property on a regular basis.You can spend hours watching them play. There are other decks to sun on or relax in the shade. The bedrooms all have private baths with outdoor/indoor showers. Art is integrated everywhere, including the owners light sculptures, architectural glass installations and paintings. The paintings are all for sale and the light sculptures are available for order. All of the furniture was designed by the owner and made specifically for the house. Schedule a massage on the yoga deck with several massage therapists in Samara, enjoy a glass of wine while you watch the monkeys or play in the pool.
There intentionally are NO TV's, however there is internet so you can stay connected, watch movies online and listen to music. This is the place to have a REAL Costa Rican experience of being surrounded by the beauty and serenity of the natural environment while also being bathed in elegance. A place to relax, recharge your creative juices and most of all just enjoy! This is not an appropriate property for young children due to the lack of railings on top decks and the fact that the two bedrooms other than master have their own separate entrances from outside for privacy. It is ideal for up to three couples or families with older children. Liberia airport is app 2 hrs away and San Jose airport is 4-5 hours away so unless you arrive in time to make it to the property by 9:00 pm it is best to stay over and arrive the following day. I however do recommend trying to arrive before dark as it is easier to find and get the lay of the land! If your flight is late or some other problem occurs that makes you run late please advise Louise, my neighbor who will be checking you in right away (506) 2656-2462.
You will receive a welcome check in letter with check in details, GPS coordinates and basic directions.
While the house does not have central air-conditioning, each bedroom has remote controlled air-conditioning and the living room/dining rooms have overhead ceiling fans. These, along with 3 sets of sliding doors, create good air-flow. When thedoors are open, the living space is literally doubled and the refreshing outside ocean breezes can flow through. It is so quiet at night, you will get a really deep sleep and wake up rested and ready for your days adventure. Walk right into the pool to have your coffee, take a swim to get a great start to your day!

About the host

Hosted by deanne sabeck

Host profile image
I am an internationally know professional glass artist working specifically in 'Light Sculpture', devoted yogini and animal lover. I love traveling and finding wonderful places to stay. Therefore I decided to create a magical place for others to enjoy.

Why they chose this property

As an artist and yoga practitioner/teacher, I wanted to create a space that was private, serene and beautiful to recharge my creative energies, experience nature in a profound way, and be able to offer this same benefit to others. I found this property which is just a short distance from town and yet very private with gorgeous views of the ocean on one side and the mountains on the other. There is always a nice breeze up on this hill which keeps the house fresh and cool, little need for AC although it is in all of the bedrooms. I worked with an architect to design and build this spectacular house that is modern, very zen in feel and very open. An experience of living in nature in luxury!
All of the furniture was designed by me and made specifically for the house.
This is the place to have a real Costa Rica experience of being in the beauty, simplicity and serenity of nature.
