About this property

Casa Molleo- Jungle Hideaway

Casa Molleo is a beautiful home constructed in 2020. The house is situated on a large private lot in a peaceful residential community. The house is equipped with dip pool with a baja deck, a spacious kitchen, 3 private and comfortable bedrooms and amazing jungle views.

Location: The home is located in the new Samara Woods residential community less than 5 minutes from the coastal town of Samara - close to the beach and town amenities, but far enough away from the action and noise to appreciate the tranquil jungle paradise.

NOTE: The house is located in a newer development. A few houses are still actively being build in Samara Woods and you may experiences construction noise during your stay.

Access: Casa Molleo is located 100 km (1 hr 45 min) from the Daniel Oduber International Airport in Liberia and 220 km (4 hrs) from the Juan Santamaria International Airport near San Jose. The nearest city is Nicoya which is approximately 35 km (40 min) north of Casa Molleo. Casa Molleo is situated 0.5 km from the paved and well-maintained Samara Highway (Ruta 150) along a gently rolling gravel road. The driveway does however require 4-wheel drive to get up the short but steep gravel incline.

Pool: The dip pool with baja deck is the perfect place to cool off and relax. The pool gets full sun most of the day but has an umbrella for shade on the baja deck. There are 2 chairs that you can put on the baja deck to sit with your feet in the water. Pool floaties and towels are provided. The pool is maintained on Tuesday and Thursday.

Kitchen: The kitchen is fully equipped for all of your cooking needs. Small appliances include microwave, coffee maker, blender, crock pot and toaster. The large Samsung refrigerator has an ice maker. The kitchen also has an electric stove and dishwasher. Plates, bowls, silverware, coffee mugs, various drinking glasses, cooking utensils, tupperware, baking sheets, pots and pans are all included. There is also an outdoor propane grill with grilling utensils.

Bedroom 1: The primary bedroom on the upper level includes large balcony with 2 chairs and a hammock chair. The bathroom includes a shower and a dual sink vanity. The bedroom also includes ample closet space, a desktop workspace, ceiling fan and air conditioning. The King-sized bed has Sealy mattress. There is also a small TV and DVD player in the bedroom as well as an ethernet port for faster wi-fi for remote workers.

Bedroom 2 & 3- The other two bedroom are on the main floor. Both rooms have 1 queen bed each also with Sealy mattresses. They are both equipped with large closets, ceiling fans, air conditioning units and ethernet ports.

Living Room: The spacious living room includes a large couch and chair and other seating as needed can be added from the deck furniture. There is also a Smart TV that you can access Netflix, Amazon Prime or YouTube, and a variety DVDs to choose from. Other entertainment includes a throwback Nintendo console, board games, puzzles and books.

Housekeeping, Laundry, Pool Cleaning, and Gardening: Casa Molleo housekeepers will ensure the home is completely cleaned and high touch areas are sanitized prior to your arrival. The pool cleaners visit twice weekly to keep the pool clean and clear and a gardener may visit as needed to ensure the landscaping is kept healthy and tidy.

A Private Jungle Retreat in Samara
We stayed at Casa Molleo from Jan 3-Feb 2, 2023 - five adults (my wife, mother in law, both of my parents, and myself). The home is absolutely gorgeous, clean and modern in and out (but still charming and fitting for its environment). Spacious rooms and a nice home-y feel. Perfect for a family, or group our size. Everybody had their own space, but the home is laid out in a way that makes spending time together very easy and natural, as it all kind of comes to a huge common area, and a nice big outdoor porch. It is well equipped, and had all the basic kitchen and laundry essentials needed for a longterm stay, much better equipped over some other places we've stayed at similar budget levels. The wi-fi is strong and we had no issue working remotely for the most part. The power can sometimes drop, usually just for a moment, but whenever it does, you lose internet. Thankfully it never happened while we were presenting to a client. We saw monkeys, iguanas, birds and all kinds of critters right in our back yard every day. Like living in a zoo. It is located only 7 minute drive from town, however you will want a 4x4 (as you'll want to have for the rest of your explorations in CR, anyway). One note is that you will rely on your vehicle to go anywhere. It is tucked away, which is what we liked about it, but worth noting that you can't just walk into town. Communication with Claire, Tess and Fabrisio was always quick, helpful, and super friendly. You'll love your stay!

Tropical escape
This is a beautiful, new property that offers lots of upgrades that make this an amazing vacation get-away. The master suite is very large and is located on the upper level with a nice balcony. The other two bedrooms are on the main level and share a nice sized bathroom with an outdoor shower. The living area and kitchen are large and well- appointed with everything you need. The dining table is outside on the patio overlooking the small pool. The outdoor space is lovely with lots of tropical plants and the surrounding jungle view. While one new house is being built to one side of this property, it is very private. This house is located in a new development which has very large lots. It is about 10 minutes from downtown Samara. The property managers are great and very responsive to requests! We would love to come back to this property in the future!

Beautiful retreat in Samara
Property managers were responsive and helpful. Wildlife everywhere… monkeys, birds and iguanas. A very authentic experience and beautiful property. Plunge pool was the best at the end of a hot day.

After traveling all over Costa Rica for years we fell in love with the town of Samara in 2015. By 2020, we built our dream house in the jungle. We hope you will enjoy Casa Molleo as much as we do!
