  • Have you ever felt like you were a star in the movie, "Raiders of the Lost Ark"? Our trip to Costa Rica and visit to Casa de las Marirposa was an adventure in the tropical jungle, combined with a stay at a villa, during the filming! Enjoying the comforts of Casa de las Mariposa, is like staying at a five star spa resort that is surrounded by a private garden. There wasn't anything that we could think of, that wasn't already there! The main house contains 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a full kitchen with every appliance and all the details. It includes an entertainment room overlooking a beautiful garden, the guesthouse and the surrounding landscape... Speaking of the detached guest house, it has an entertainment patio and a private swimming pool. You name it, and it's all there, plus more... Views, views,views! You'll feel like a movie star, come and visit!

  • Casa de las Mariposas is a wondrous place were you can experience Costa Rica in its most natural setting while having all of the comforts of home. While relaxing by the sparkling pool on my last visit, I closed my eyes and could hear the sound of howler monkeys in the distance, the trickling creek behind me, the breeze rustling through the many Pochote trees and the laughter of friends enjoying the sun and scenery. The furnishings are comfortable and the kitchen is fully stocked with gadgets for the most experienced chef! Beaches and local restaurants are just a short drive away. Be sure to wave to the locals as they are very friendly. I will be back again and again!
