Casa de Zen was designed by Bob in 2014 and the house was completed in 2015. Bob spent many mornings and evenings sitting on a lawn chair during the day lite hours and early evening hours on a virgin plot of land planning for a "just right" positioning of the house so that the heat of the day would not effect the comfort of the home itself nor interfere with the stunning views . Giving the house a constant comfortable temperature of 70 - 75° . Cooler at night.
Unlike a majority of homes in our neighborhood Bob designed this home to not be a clear cut lot, but to nestle the home amongst the jungle making it feel like it grew out of the land itself leaving the trees and the jungle the way mother nature intended it to be.
Also on site is a detached studio with one queen sized bed and one full sized pull out couch. This seperate sleeping area offers sleeping room for 4 more guests. Included is a refrigerator to keep snacks and drinks cold. Teenagers getting on your nerves? Perfect get away for them.
Unlike the United States where basically you know your day to day schedule, Casa de Zen offers a truly different experience that changes daily.
Our neighbors are not of the human kind but an over abundance of wild life. Armadillo, Deer, Howler Monkeys, Picotes, Capuchin monkeys, Toucan's, paccaries, tree frogs and way too many birds and butterflies to count. This is just to name a few. Maybe you can add a few that we haven't seen yet.
On the property (in season) you will find edibles like pineapple, mangos, papaya, peppers, and a baby lemon tree not yet ready to produce fruit. In the near future oranges, avocados, limes, starfruit and various other edibles will be introduced.
