Vacation in Paradise

We spent 16 days here and it was wonderful. The listing description is accurate and thruthful. The property is very clean and well kept. The main kitchen is fully equiped with all the amenities you might need. The owners, Bob and Bea, are very nice, helpful and go out of their way to make you feel welcomed. The rescued animals who leave here are lovely, especially the black lab Vader who loves to greet and play with visitors. Our kids loved him! I would definitely recommend this property to my friends and family.

Bob & Bea have created and maintain a true paradise in the hills overlooking Dominical & Manuel Antonio. First trip to CR for half of our party of 4, with a randonly found rental on VRBO, and am sure we could not have better anywhere. It is a beautiful home, surrounded by beautiful views, run by some outstanding people. They have birds galore, monkeys that troop through at their leisure, and dogs of all kinds that they have rescued. The 2 separate apartments work great for 2 couples, but can easily accommodate many more. The pool and the surroundings could intice you to never leave the grounds except to hike, but do travel the 5k from the paved road. It is an adventure in itself! We all had an exceptional week - and wish Bob & Bea continued great success with all their endeavors. Definitely highly reccommend and look forward to return visits.

First of all, the owners of this property, Bob and Bea are fabulous hosts. A cell phone was provided for our convenience in the event we needed to phone them for any reason what-so-ever. Bob and Bea also gave us great restaurant and local activity recommendations, answered all of our questions, and made us feel right at home! Words and pictures cannot begin to describe the beauty of this vacation home. It is truly picturesque! All amenities are generously provided to ensure your stay in this grand home is a comfortable one. The Dominical locals were also extremely friendly and eager to point us to the best restaurants and hangouts. We had such an excellent time during our vacation that we already long to return to "tico time" and anxiously await the day that we do! Thank you Bob and Bea for providing us the opportunity to stay in your lovely vacation home. Pura Vida!

My wife and I decided on Bob and Bea's place for a honeymoon and we are ecstatic to have met them and stayed at Seabreeze. The place is exquisite and the photos do not do justice for the amount of work and effort that has been put into the place. Again Bob and Bea are spectacular hosts and went above and beyond to make sure our trip went well. The day we arrived we called and Bob came down to town to meet us and we followed him up to the place. The initial drive is tricky the 1st time but more than manageable after that, nothing to fret over. As we arrived the place was well kept and beautifully manicured. We enjoyed every moment. The power went out at one point do to heavy rains and made the pool a little murky but it was again nothing to fret over or anything unexpected... and again displaying his wonderful aptitude as a host Bob apologized for something that wasn't within his control anyway... a truly generous and wonderful host and they made our stay wonderful! If you have the opportunity to book this place by all means it is worth it, I have zero complaints and my only regret is we could not stay longer! Thanks again Bob and Bea... we look forward to seeing you again soon!

Casa Seabreeze Defines Paradise

I have been vacationing in Beatiful Costa Rica for over ten years and have stayed at many vacation rental properties all over the country but none of them compare to Casa Seabreeze. The house is gorgeous, the pool is breathtaking, the view of the pacific ocean is unmatched and Bob and Bea are absolutely some of the nicest people I have ever had the pleasure to meet. They go above and beyond to make sure your vacation is everything it should be. We had some car trouble on our way to the Casa, I gave Bob and Bea a phone call and they came and picked us up minutes later, made sure we had breakfast in the morning, took us to town to get supplies, helped get us another vehicle, ect. The wildlife we encountered during our visit was a lifetimes worth, toucans, scarlet macaws, parrots, aracari, parakeets, hummingbirds, lots of monkeys, turtles, horses and one of my favorites, Leo the resident kinkajou!! The kitchen is ideal for cooking up your fresh catch( they also have a grill next to the pool for an outdoor barbeque). I am a chef so I was very happy about that! They also have an espresso machine!! I love Casa Seabreeze and will be returning for another visit!!!

This was our first time in Costa Rica and also the first time we rented a home. After scouring the internet we decided that Sea Breeze Casa was the place for us so we made our reservations. Bob and Bea told us that a 4WD vehicle would be essential for our trip. It’s a 5 Km drive on a steep, hilly, winding gravel road. We unknowingly received a 2WD from the rental car company. We made it to the Casa but found it impossible to get back out. This could have been a disaster. My wife was already in love with the place and said it was exceeding her expectations. Men reading this know the value of “exceeded expectations”. I had to find some way to make it work. I called Avis and they said they would do their best to get us a 4WD. Bob and Bea, being the wonderful Hosts that they are, helped us make it through our “transportation handicap” until the 4WD became available. Bob’s and Bea’s flexibility and willingness to work around our rental car problems was a saving grace! We cannot say enough good things about Bob and Bea! The Casa has a great filtration system so there is no need for bottled water. The Espresso machine was great. Grinding fresh coffee beans and enjoying the sunrise overlooking the jungle with the ocean in the distance was amazing. There are 90 plus acres of private nature reserve with great trails for hiking. The swimming pool was fantastic. The house has all the comforts of home and is truly a home, not a “rental”. I have to mention that Bea is an animal rescuer. She has rescued numerous horses and dogs as well as the local Costa Rican Jungle wildlife. She was willing to share her experiences with us and we were able to see a troop of monkeys, numerous tropical birds, and a variety of wild reserve animals. She also allowed us to meet a couple of her very special wildlife rescues who still reside with them. It’s rare to find someone with such a large heart for animals and the well-being of the world in general. The world needs more people like Bob and Bea who are wonderful stewards to the land and to the other creatures who share our world. Bob and Bea were happy to answer our questions pertaining to activities and local “not to be missed points of interest”, but were never intrusive in any way. They gave us a local cell phone so if we needed help with anything or had questions they were only a phone call away. We will be booking the Sea Breeze next year. There is something to be said for “exceeded expectations”.

The Complete Package

Vacations are great. But the challenge for me has always been getting to my destination. And even though we drove directly to Bea and Bob’s place from San Jose, it was only because we had great direction, printed map and GPS. The last 15 minutes of the drive is an adventure in itself. But if you truly want to be where all the animals are one has to take the road less travelled. We were greeted by warm smiles and every animal you can think of. The house is huge, luxurious, well maintained and clean. The infinity pool is fantastic and the views are breathtaking. Everyday there was a different animal encounter. Monkeys, kinkajous, wooly possums, horses, frogs, toucans, butterflies, humming birds and geckos … and they were all on the property. I think the best part of staying at Sea Breeze is the wealth of knowledge and warm-hearted kindness that came from Bea. We asked many questions and always got great advises on where to buy food, the best restaurants, beaches, waterfall hikes and her knowledge about the area and animals was fascinating. We spent one week at Sea Breeze and one week at another place and I tell you the difference was night and day. My advises is spend your days exploring Costa Rica but there is nothing that comes close to Sea Breeze as a home base. I hope to return someday.

Secluded Tropical Paradise

Review Submitted: 03/01/11
My wife and I are retired and love to go birding in Central & South America. We feel extremely fortunate to have booked a one-week stay at the beautiful and secluded Sea Breeze Villa. High on a ridge above the Pacific with a private infinity pool and all the modern conveniences complete with a great fully equipped kitchen, wonderful bathrooms and consistent hot-water with walk-in showers (exceptional in our travel experiences). AC in the large master bedroom made sleeping in the tropics a dream. We are birders and numerous species were passing through the trees surrounding the villa, making viewing an exciting pleasure. The owners are located nearby and handy for any questions or assistance if required but far enough away so that you are enjoying this corner of tropical spendor as your own. Sunsets on the Pacific border on a religious experience. Do not be intimidated/disuaded by the gravel road to access the villa, just be sure to have a 4-wheel drive vehicle. The location, facility and the friendly helpful owners all create a scintillating unforgetable experience. We would strongly urge others to seek out Sea Breeze for a most memorable Costa Rican vacation visit.

Our Stay at Casa Sea Breeze Estate

Dear Bea & Bo Thank you for our wonderful stay at your Casa Sea Breeze Estate. You are wonderful hosts and made us feel at home in Costa Rica. What a beautiful home, more than what we anticipated The studio apartment was a great feature for our guests still giving us complete privacy. The house was equipped with every amenity & Bob and Bea were there anytime we needed. Kind and helpful but not invasive in any way. Awesome People! The gorgeous infinity Pool and 90 acre reserve located close to the top of the mountain at a perfect elevation provided us the most comfortable temperature day and night. No AC or swimsuits required in this private setting, only occasional visits from Vader the 140 lb black Lab and morning check-ups from Romo & Rembrandt, the Chihuahua and Dalmatian. We enjoyed our evenings by the pool. The stars in the sky along with the sounds of the jungle and the kinkajou (Leo) and friends communicating with each other were awesome! If you watch carefully you might see Leo the kinkajou come for his late night visits. It was very comforting to find out that the late night thump on the house was just Leo coming for a visit and not something unwanted! Our mornings were awakened with the sounds of the Jungle,Toucans & Various exotic birds. I wish that we could have recorded these sounds to bring home with us. It was fun taking pictures of the white faced monkeys that appeared twice daily. We also met the resident opossum Geronimo. Not to forget your beautiful horses grazing in the valley. I loved feeding them bananas and watermelon rinds. Thank you for the Quad ride down to the river. We enjoyed watching Vader, Romo, Tara, Rembrandt, Dooley, Bobby and Emma you’re beautiful pack play and swim in the river. The ride up the mountain to Lagunas was spectacular!! We often stayed at the house for a day and then ventured down the hill for an ocean adventure or road trip in between. We dined at Coco’s in dominical (awesome nachos), and Tortilla Flats always serves great food. We Visited Domical and Uvita Beach & walked along the Whales Tale at low tide.(can also snorkel there) Day trips to San Isidro, and exploring the beaches & coastal towns were exciting! The People are very friendly & helpful and the Food is alway reasonably Priced. We look forward to coming back to your paradise It was a pleasure to meet you both.Your rescue efforts over the years with your Dogs, Horses and Wild animals should be highly commended Cheri & Hugh
