Location
Our home is situated in western Costa Rica, on Playa Tambor Beach on the Nicoya peninsula, in the province of Puntarenas. It is situated in a lush natural setting, surrounded by several natural reserves such as the prestigious Cabo Blanco park.
On the beach side of the house, there are 80-plus-foot tall coconut palms, native banana and "pachote" trees. In addition, we have planted tropical fruit and flowering trees.
The beach house is very bright, clean and airy. Further down in this listing, there is a link titled "Click Here for more photos of our house,scenery and activities". Click it and you will be taken to our family website with MANY more photos!

We loved it. The style of living was tough for my brother and nephew to get used to, but I tried to explain that this is how most of the world lives. He had a hard time living without football, until he found that the yacht club had the games...then all was well. It really was an amazing trip and we loved it. Believe it or not it was the longest we have gone without trying to kill each other. So there was something magical about it too.

We had a blast, the house was wonderful. The showers were a little cold, but we got used to them. Spencer was a great help and we met a lot of people from the states, not far from us in Maryland. We met a guy named Merle who took us fishing and we watched the superbowl at the marina. It was a great time and are thinking about going back. I will let you know when we decide!
