Accommodations: Home, 2 Bedrooms + Other (See Description), 1 Bath (Sleeps 4)
You will love this beautiful beach house. From the exquisite wooden hand-crafted butterfly gate to the inlaid mosaic tile on the porch and bathroom, you will appreciate the "extras" that make this more than just another rental house. In addition to the full bathroom, there is an outside mosaic "iguana" shower for post-beach use, a great attraction for children. The house is located on a secluded sandy beach and is a short 20 minute walk into the town of Puerto Viejo.
The beach house is set in a lovely garden of fruit trees and primordial flowers and herbs. Managers are right next door and can guide you to nearby attractions, including the best restaurants, music spots, as well as snorkeling and hiking in the area. They can connect you to indigenous guides on the Kekoldi and Talamanca Reserves, and in the Gandoca-Manzanillo wildlife reserve, and arrange once-in-a-lifetime experiences for guests at the beach house.
A wonderful feature of the house is the large porch and living area, with a beautiful smooth wooden railing high enough to be protective for small children playing, while allowing those lying in the hammocks to gaze at the surrounding foliage, feel the ocean breeze, and smell the perfumed scent of the Ylang-Ylang tree in the yard.
Guests can cook in the fully equipped beach house kitchen, often incorporating fruits from the garden into their meals. Or, dine in town in one of the many gourmet restaurants. Cuisine ranges from local rice-and-beans made with coconut, to Eurasian, Italian, Spanish, and Japanse.
Nightlife in Puerto Viejo is enticing, with different events each night, including Jam Night and Calypso Night at the Hotel Maritza and live jazz and reggae at the Loco Natural.... or stay in your beach house and be lulled to sleep by the sounds of the ocean and of falling avocados...

Why the Owner Chose Puerto Viejo
Visited in 1989 and found it to be a magical place so decided to buy a little property right on the beach.
The Unique Benefits of this Home
Tranquility and serenity abound in this lush tropical setting. Enjoy our new 2 bedroom beach house and a short one minute walk to a relatively private beach.
