About the host
Hosted by Brett or Pete
Entrepreneur extraordinaire who wanted a piece of paradise to relax at. I have travelled all over the world. Visited nearly every island in Caribbean, and Mexico looking for the right combination of tropical living, affordability, things to do, safety, and a stable government. Costa Rica is the best. The people are very nice and not resentful of foreigners. There is not the poverty nor crime of other countries. There is such an eclectic mix of people from all over the world who come here to vacation, snowbird, or full time living, it is very exciting!
Why they chose this property
I looked at 50 Villas and as soon as I walked into Sun Monkey, I knew it to be home. Unless you have spent some time in this area, it is difficult to to explain the differences between SM and other homes in this price range. Location, location, location. Very close to beach, but away from hubub. Very short and easy drive from main road. Large 1.75 acres of lush private gardens. Private enough to host a nudist group! The extra pavilion structure is very special. It provides another gathering place, enabling a large group or family to spread out and not feel on top of one another. It regularly hosts morning exercise sessions, afternoon naps, 15 people doing yoga, and twilight evenings rocking & watching magnificent Sunsets, with a cold one. We have had the pool redone and added sun shelves to linger on. A new hot tub spa is installed between pool and pavilion. Hidden Outdoor shower could have been built by Fred Flintstone and receives interesting reviews by guests! And we have the best full time property management. Malinche Properties make your vacation effortless. Owning two restaurants and a brewery provide us the platform to offer numerous chef and meal options from "white tablecloth" to simple BBQ's.
What makes this property unique
HUGE 60' pool. Spa/Hot Tub. Outdoor Pavilion. Ocean view Casita (guest house) is close enough to main house (30 feet) where all feel part of group, but great place for young adults who need own space. Covered rancho with wet bar and grill. Multiple "spaces" for a large group to spread out to. Bunk room for kids, cousins, and friends. Never feeling crowded.
