Location: Samara, Guanacaste, Costa Rica, Central America (12 Min Drive to Samara, Near Nosara, Garza, Guiones,)
Accommodations: House, 3 Bedrooms, 2.5 Baths (Sleeps 8)
Our house, Casa San Rocco, is a unique property, perched on a high ridge overlooking beautiful low mountains, pasture with cattle, mangrove forests with an amazing bird population and a view of the Pacific ocean. The house is really three buildings tied together by coral tiled walkways.
The living-room/kitchen area is large and open with comfortable couches and a large covered veranda for meals outside. The two guest bedrooms are in the next building, separated by a full bathroom, each with a double bed with a twin bunk, and a private balcony. The last is the master bedroom with its own full bath and balcony. There is a large deck around the infinity pool just outside the two buildings. The bedrooms are air-conditioned.
The house is on four acres of land. There are mango, lemon, avocado trees among others. The howler monkeys frequently play in the trees right behind the house. We've seen toucans, green parrots, many kind of humming birds and mot-mots (among many other birds) from our rockers on the veranda.
The beach is a short ten minute walk in one direction, the local store is a short five minute walk in the other. You will need to have an adventurous spirit as the road from town is bumpy, you drive through a low river to get to the property, and the driveway, though paved, is very steep. But once there you are in paradise. We have a property manager to assist you in every way and a friendly grounds keeper as well. Maid service is available. Good restaurants and tourist fun abound in Samara, a fifteen minute drive away(twenty five minutes in the wet season depending on the rainfall). Great surf breaks within 10-20 minute drive at Playas Nosara, Garza, and Guiones.
