Quinta Soñada,rough translation: "Dreamy little Farm" is situated on a stunning beach, in a gorgeous and wild part of Costa Rica.We are 50 yards from the ocean, on the Golfo Dulce in the spectacular Osa Peninsula. Wonderful meals available, shuttle service, guide to park.We are 50 yards from the sea.Kayaks and surf toys available.
We are 2 miles from the tip of Matapalo Point, and 8 miles from the airport in Puerto Jimenez. Eight acres of gardens and wilderness make this vacation spot a wonderful tonic for the spirit and soul. Here in the southern Zone, we are in the most beautiful part of Costa Rica. From the upstairs bedroom you have an ocean view of the Pacific and across the Golfo Dulce to the mountains of Panama. Scarlet McCaws and Toucans come most mornings to feed on our hundreds of fruit trees. Wake up to the sounds of Monkeys and Birds.Our house is powered by the sun and cooled by constant gentle winds.
The Osa Peninsula is one of the last outposts of unspoiled coastal jungle. Corcovado Park is very close, as are world class fishing and bird watching. We can pick you up at the airport and have on-site taxi, knowledgeable guide, scrumptious meals, laundry service, and we can arrange our caretaker, Jose, to pick you up at the airport and even take you as far as Corcovado Park or a dive trip to Cano Island . You will find a major highlight of your trip getting to know your wonderful Costa Rican host family. Or if you prefer, you can reside in the house in complete solitude.
...."The house is beautiful, with exquisite materials and workmanship. It is clear a lot of labor and love have gone into making this a dream spot. We loved the elevated bed allowing for beautiful morning views of the sea and daily Scarlet Macaw visits. Your host family, Jose and Elieth are generous and warm hosts"... Loretta and Jonathon, NY.NY.
