Location: Ojochal, Puntarenas, Costa Rica, Central America (30 minutes from Palmar Sur, 90 south of Manuel Antonio)
Accommodations: House, 4 Bedrooms, 2 Baths (Sleeps 5-8)
Enjoy the stunning surroundings of the south central coastline of the Pacific Ocean dubbed Costa Ballena and Costa Fina mountain range. Totally unobstructed views of the Pacific Ocean will offer you unparalleled sunsets. You are immersed in nature but have all the comforts of home.
Casa Pajaro translates to Bird House and aptly so. Toucans, kiskadees, green parrots and many, many birds will be flying around you as you sip your morning Costa Rican coffee. Iridescent Blue Morpho butterflies flutter past and Howler monkeys call to you throughout the day. Many in the area think of their call as the morning alarm clock.
This home is nestled in among the rainforest near Ojochal, Uvita, and Domincal, on the southwest coast. You’ll be awed by the interior design features and upscale amenities of this beautiful home. Not a single detail has been overlooked, from the many windows overlooking a rainforest and the peaceful Pacific, to the gourmet kitchen with granite counters and stainless appliances, and the tropical landscaping surrounding your own pool. The master bedroom features dual vanity sinks and an oversized shower. Quiet and completely private, yet just minutes to the town and the beach.

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2007
Jan and Ross moved to Ojochal from Canada in June of 2009. They share their home with others and travel around Costa Rica and beyond. Married for eleven years, they both are on a sabbatical from corporate life to experience a different life.
While in Costa Rica Jan is busy with nature photography and a blog. Both are working the Terramar, a non profit organization this is dedicated to saving the Olive Ridley turtles on Playa Tortuga in Ojochal.
Why the Owner Chose Ojochal
The southern Pacific coast is such a unique area of the world. Environmentalist have put this area as the top 20 in the world that should be protected. The jungle is amazing and sightings of both white face capuchin and howler monkeys are common. Not a day passes without hearing the trill of the toucan or squawk of the green parrots. This place is magical and our house is in the middle of it all.
The Unique Benefits of this House
Everyday will present a new sunset or light on the mountain is unique. The air currents from the ocean or mountain keep it nicely cooled. In the evenings candles won't stay lit on the terrace because of the breezes. While secluded, there are three other houses in the immediate area although only one can be seen below.
