The Pina Grande house is just one of 4 homes on a beautiful gated property just off the main Puerto Viejo-Manzanillo road. The land has been sufficiently cleared to allow for wonderful breezes but the awesome grandfather trees remain uncut, filled with monkeys, toucans, and every bird imaginable. We are 5 minutes to the beach, shopping or internet cafes, but far away enough to offer complete tranquility and repose. The house is brand new, with US style kitchen and bathrooms. There is a queen size bed in each of the upstairs bedrooms and a daybed downstairs, a full bath upstairs and also downstairs, with walk-in showers, hot water, fridge, stove,and microwave. This home is nicely turn-key furnished, and a $100 deposit is required for damages and breakage, refunded upon your departure. For extra maid-service or cook at guest expense, let us know your requirements in advance or please speak with our on-site caretaker.

Why the Owner Chose Cocles
Friends brought me to the area in 2003, and I fell in love with the Community of Cocles, the surrounding rain forest and the beaches. In 2006 I made the leap and purchased a property for my home site, but ended up buying a larger piece of property than I needed. I ended up building 4 homes at Cocoa Hill, on what used to be a cocoa plantation. The most wonderful thing about the area is actually the people, the Costa Ricans are wonderful, warm, and kind, and there is also a large community of multi-national adventuresome people.
The Unique Benefits at this Home
When I first purchased my property, I didnt have a car, and was doing everything on my mountain bike - so it was important to me to be within an easy bike ride of the store, internet and the beaches- I also like my space and tranquility, so peaceful easy-going days were a must, accessibility of the necessities without loosing peace and quiet.
A delightful outdoor cafe restaurant that specializes in delicious Argentinian parilla, a large outdoor fireplace where Juan grills a delectable assorment of meats and sea-food.
A nice hotel also has a delightful ocean front restaurant, great place for breakfast.
