Om overnatningsstedet

Uovertruffen udsigt over havet og bjergene! Pool! Privat kok / rengøring inkluderet!

La Paila er unik blandt de fleste af de villaer, du finder!
- en bred panoramaudsigt over Stillehavet er uden sidestykke. Huset ligger på en af de højeste højder med udsigt til Samara-bugten og dalen med dramatisk udsigt. Himmelen og lyset ændrer sig hele dagen og afsluttes ofte i spektakulære solnedgange over Stillehavet.
- personalet tilbereder måltider, rengører huset dagligt og vaskeri! Pool og grunde er professionelt vedligeholdt. Slap af og hyg dig selv! Personalet bor i et separat hus på ejendommen, der giver sikkerhed og tilgængelighed, men også så meget privatliv, som du ønsker.
- gratis forudbeholdning af mad til din ankomst
- La Paila er designet med en stor udendørs opholdsstue, der indeholder spisestue, opholdsstue, underholdning og spilområder. Det kan ikke prale af vægge, så du er direkte forbundet med udsigten, brisen og naturen! (Alle fire soveværelser er sikre og airconditionerede).
- La Paila er meget privat, rolig og stille. Vi har kun et par tætte naboer, og der er ingen gennemgangstrafik
- La Paila er designet i den koloniale Costa Ricaanske arkitekturstil og udnævnes med kunst og artefakter, der fejrer Tico og Guanacaste kultur. Møblerne er for det meste lokalt fremstillet af tropiske hårdttræ. Fordyb jer lidt i Costa Rica!

Til din underholdning er der satellit-tv med video / DVD, Bose stereo (med iPod-tilslutning) og gratis WiFi. Men du kan også laze i hængekøjen eller loungen i poolen! Vi har bordtennis- og backgammonborde og andre brætspil, en volleyball / badmintonbane, dart! Tag boogie boards med dig til stranden eller brug i poolen!

Naturen bugner overalt: flokke af papegøjer flyver forbi hver morgen og aften, hylse- og capuchin-aber besøger baghavetræerne, og måske ser du en coatimundi ... eller en hel familie! Mangoer falder af træerne fra maj til juli.

Solnedgange kan være forbløffende, men se også efter Mælkevejen, der strækker sig over himlen, ildkugler, grønne blink, måneringe og regnbuer!

Brug villaen som et afsondret tilflugtssted til ren R & R eller som hjemmebase til dagsture. Den daglige destination for de fleste?: kun fem minutter væk med bil ligger den ikoniske, palmerede to kilometer lange Playa Carrillo (Carrillo-strand), en certificeret 'blå flag' strand i Costa Rica (betyder, at den er sikker og ren)! Det tilbyder uovertrufne strandvandringer, jogging, svømning og picnic. Ridning er tilgængelig på flere strande. Gå på dybhavsfiskeri efter marlin, tun, sværdfisk og mahi-mahi. Skildpaddesag er i nærheden af Playa Camaronal, Playa Grande og Playa Langosta. Snorkel til en off-shore ø. Lynlås gennem lokale jungle baldakiner. Surfingundervisning på spandlisten? Spis ude i det nærliggende Samara og Carrillo på adskillige fine, men afslappede restauranter. Udforsk den omgivende teakplantage. Der er en lille zoologisk have i Carrillo og en krokodille at se. Mod syd kan du nyde frokost eller golf ved Punta Islita, tjek reserven til ara (papegøje) ved Ara Project og udforske Camaronal, en national tilflugtssted for dyreliv. Du vil ikke løbe tør for ting at gøre!

Best View!

We stayed at La Paila with 2 families of 4 and the house was a perfect setup. The views from the property are incredible! Take me back! We had a wonderful time listening to the birds, watching the sunsets, swimming in the pool, listening to music and having drinks in the outdoor living space. The property caretaker Maury had dinner prepped for our arrival a cooked a few other meals while we were there and she was an incredible cook. It was such a special treat, we enjoyed her cooking so much, I had to take home one of her recipes. The AC worked great in all the bedrooms which was very nice. And the drive to and from town is easy. We especially enjoyed the beauty of Carillo and Sámara provides anything you could need between restaurants, adventure, shopping etc but also not too big of a town. It’s definitely special here. We had great communication with Andy & Christine prior to our arrival but had no need to reach out while we were there since everything went smooth. Good internet if that is needed. Thank you so much for sharing your slice of Paradise, it was a dream.

Great place to relax and enjoy Costa Rica

Everything was simply amazing. Rugged beauty everywhere and an abundance of flowers to gaze at on the property. Views are truly special as we could see all of Samara bay from our hilltop. Housekeeper was so nice and helpful, cooking and cleaning for us. We love the proximity to everything in town and got so much packed into our trip because of the convenience with this location. Clean, safe, spectacular.

Nice place but needs some TLC

This house has a beautiful view, great location, and the staff is great. The house needs some updating and minor repairs. The bedrooms were a bit dusty. The fridge was consistently leaking water inside and not very cool. The staff cleaned every day and helped with whatever we needed. We had a large group of 11 people. It was unclear for the guests to know where to put the laundry that needed to be washed. However, the staff were willing to do the laundry. The initial portion of the road to the house is paved but then turns into a dusty, rocked road that is pretty rough and steep. 4 wheel drive is not necessary, but it is important to note to the roughness and steep incline. The views from the house are breathtaking. We asked for local dishes for meals and were not disappointed. Grace and Maria kept up with food allergies and made separate meals for the kiddos who were picky eaters. They were very kind and helpful. They cooked meals on our schedule so that we had food early enough for scheduled activities and ready for us when we got home. Brisa was fun to have around and never bothered us once. We loved watching Brisa come around and love on all of us. Grace and Maria helped us learn some spanish which we loved. We would recommend this place again, but would like to see the house have a bit more TLC.

Wonderful Place to Stay

La Paila is paradise. We so enjoyed our stay. The accommodations were just as advertised and Grace was wonderful in accommodating us and for the wonderful meals that she made for us. We loved the pool, watching the pretty birds, monkeys and THAT VIEW! We never tired of waking up to that view. At night time, you do have to adjust to the living room being open to all sorts of creatures, but by the end of the week, we were used to them and it wasn't a problem. We very much enjoyed our stay and would rent this home again.

Spectacular view from traditional home

Upon arriving at this well-appointed traditional style home we were all mesmerized by the initial impression and the spectacular view overlooking Playa Carrillo. The house had lots of room for 6 adults; one child. There are inside and outside games galore when not just simply relaxing or at the beach. The pool was a hit for the family and was the first place people would go after breakfast. We heard that this beach was the nicest in the area so we were happy to know that. We found several good restaurants in Samara. The food in Samara is very expensive- and even farther towns like Nicoya still had high food prices. At the end of our stay we did find a little butcher shop in Samara just on the left before the main road dead ends into the town. The bakery (where the road actually dead ends ) was very good. 2 Gringos and the El Calibri (steak restaurant) were our favorite. Our trip was enhanced by an engagement proposal under water scuba diving and our turtle excursion through Samara Infocenter! What a wonderful place to experience all from a breathtaking view each morning, a gorgeous sunset each evening, and the brightest stars at night you’ll ever see!

You will not disappointed with your stay! Maureen and the views made our experience extra special!! She is an amazing cook, my picky kids ate every bite. We also loved not having to clean every day. She made our trip feel like a vacation. The views from house are unforgettable. The house has four rooms- a master and a bunk room downstairs and two rooms upstairs that share a Jack and jill bathroom. It all worked out well to share with our families. This is our second visit and the first time we had a breeze, this time we were not as lucky. Fans would be a great edition. Thanks for a wonderful week!!! Pura Vida

Third Stay

This was our third trip to this beautiful, peaceful home. We have stayed in a few other properties in the area, but only because this property was booked. The others were good. They weren't this though. This place is magic. It's incredibly relaxing and welcoming, the beauty and rustic charm just can't be beat. Maury the chef was as always, amazing. She is kind and thoughtful and incredibly helpful. She also happens to be an amazing chef. If we could, this would be our permanent second home and Maury would be family.

Yoga retreat in beautiful mountain Villa

We went as a group of 9 as a yoga retreat. Yoga every morning by the pool with a stunning view of the ocean below was incredible. We couldn't capture the beauty enough with our photos. We loved the open air main area and also having the pool to cool off in after days at the beach and exploring. Sunsets were amazing! We also got to see lots of lizards, howler monkeys right by the house, and beautiful birds. Maury the cook and one who cares for us was very kind and a great cook!! She cooked us amazing local style dinners we asked for and also great breakfasts. It felt healthy and delicious. We loved all the fresh fruit. The beds were very comfortable, and rooms beautiful in traditional I think ranch style. AC in the bedrooms to sleep was so nice since it is very hot here. We love this place and plan to come back. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful villa with us!

We loved it some much we brought our kids their partners and our grandkids for the 2023 Holidays in lieu of a family christmas We love this place. It is peaceful, relaxing and within a short drive to beautiful beaches, and to the stores and restaurants of both Playa Carilla and Samara.

We loved this property and our stay here. In person is way better than on line pics!!

Everything is awesome, and accurate as stated on VRBO. The only complaint's would be the overall cleanliness of the property, and the live in Dog. We loved the Dog, but it seemed that she had not received a proper bath for some time, when she was around you knew it by the smell. There was hair from the dog all over the open area and furniture, and smell of the dog on the furniture. Overall we would stay here again, but would request a cleaner house and clean dog.

Our family loved our stay here. The layout of the open living space provided a unique experience. Maureen was fantastic and we loved our meals. Plenty to do in the surrounding area without much trouble. (Horseback riding, zip lining, coffee tours, beach…) I would recommend a 4x4/AWD for ease getting up to the house and some of the surrounding areas. Maybe not required but definitely a good idea.

Absolutely Magical!

Our stay at La Paila was nothing short of magical. The road up to the house was not bad at all and once you get there, the view is worth every second! It only takes about 5 minutes to get up or down from the house to the beach. We got lost on our way there and ended up not arriving until 10pm. Maureen was still awake and at the house and not only greeted us, but served dinner as well. The house itself is beautiful and nestled in the perfect combination of ocean and jungle views. You feel completely secluded but not disconnected. There was so much to do at the house, we were never bored. But the house was still close to the beach and other places, Carrillo about 5 minutes and Samara about 10 minutes. We had 6 people total and it was the perfect amount of space for all of us. Everyone had their own space/bedroom. Maureen was an absolute God send. She was one of the highlights of our stay. We really enjoyed getting to know her, learning how to cook and spending time with her. None of us spoke fluent or any Spanish and she was extremely patient with us. Even texted me store lists, with pictures, so we knew what we needed to get at the store. She was so attentive, and took care of everything for us but we also never felt crowded and had plenty of privacy. We absolutely adored the house puppy, Brisa. She was a doll and we loved having her around and a little piece of home. We truly could not have imagined a better way to spend our time in Costa Rica than at La Paila and cannot wait to return!

Incredible views, Historic-feel property

We enjoyed our stay at La Paila. The road up to the hillside perch was easier than anticipated (5 min, well-packed dirt road, not overly curvy), and the view and gardens would have been worth it being worse! A favorite was to sit in the recliners in the morning, watch the birds (we spotted a toucan!) and butterflies, and enjoy the ocean view! You do need to know -- we didn't totally realize -- that all the living space (not bedrooms or kitchen) is open to the air on the sides (well covered) like an old ranchero, I assume. We felt well-protected in rainstorms and usually felt a breeze...did not have the level of problems with bugs we feared...but it is not an air-conditioned living space. The bedrooms have ac. They are adequate, not particularly special, but that's not where you spend your time. The kitchen is quite dated but well-appointed and having the on-site cleaning and cooking was a real plus, helpful and friendly.

Om værten

Vært: Andy and Christine Durham

Værtens profilbillede
The owners are a husband and wife...she an architect and he a landscape architect. We manage the house ourselves -- not through third parties -- and make frequent visits to maintain and improve the gardens and house. It is our pride and joy.

Derfor valgte værten dette overnatningssted

The property has been in one family since construction. The site was selected for its panoramic views of the Pacific but also the cooler air and breezes provided thanks to its elevation. La Paila faces directly west for sunset views year round. With virtually no light pollution, the night skies can be spectacular. You can see as many as four bays from the pool terrace but the primary view is of Playa Samara and the town of Samara -- at night Samara's lights glisten gently in the distance.

Tico flavor! The house was designed by a Costa Rican architect in the Spanish hacienda style. Our staff is Tico so you'll be closer to Tico cooking, culture and Spanish language at La Paila. The house is appointed with Costa Rican artifacts and art: Guaitil pottery, colonial sugar-cauldrons, a Sarchi cart, ox yokes, and more.

Families welcome! Small special events by permission. Dogs OK too.

Derfor er dette overnatningssted unikt

Broad, panoramic views of the Pacific!
Western view of stunning sunsets!
Great for families!
Huge living room open to nature and breezes!
Outstanding home-cooking by our staff -- included in the price!
Daily housekeeping and weekly laundry (included at no extra charge!)!
Safe, private, quiet, and tranquil!
Well appointed with Costa Rican artifacts and historical items.
