About this property

Beautiful Cabo Matapalo beach home close to the Corcovado Nacional Park

Custom built home on a beautifully landscaped parcel a short walk from the ocean. This is a two story house that has a master bedroom, guest bedroom, a large master bath (with solar hot water shower), a professionally equipped kitchen, a living room area and a large wrap around covered deck. In 2021 a deep and refreshing dipping pool was added to the deck area. The pool is perfect for kids to play with supervision and has a large bench area to sit in the water and have a beverage of choice watching the monkeys pass overhead. Upstairs has an open floor plan with a large yoga space, a king size bed, a roll out queen bed, a sofa bed, and a full bath. The upstairs also has a covered deck hammock area, an open air space for viewing the night sky, and both a sofa bed and a roll out queen bed that can be used to accommodate larger groups. The home is located in the center of the property and offers living fence privacy and abundant wildlife viewing. Four species of monkeys can be seen from the comfort of the hammock. All types of birds visit the various fruit trees daily. The gardens are mature with fruit and herbs and foraging is encouraged.

Amazing rental house! We found ourselves sitting on the porch and enjoying the pool even more than we expected because it was so relaxing. The kitchen was well stocked, and the beds were comfortable. We loved the location and being able to walk to the beach, surf at Playa Pan Dulce, and have lunch at Martina's.

We are glad you had a fun family vacation at Mil Flores. The osa is a gift for all of us. We are lucky to enjoy it so untouched still. Please come again

We thoroughly enjoyed the open-air, super clean, well-appointed and spacious home in the jungle. our host stopped by to check on us, and we had a sloth, macaws and other wildlife checking in and entertaining.

Our family spent a week at this amazing location! Michelle & Gretchen were both very responsive and friendly. Creatures galore..we loved the monkey migration each morning but there's so much more than that. Bring your binoculars! Kitchen well equiped. Dipping pool was great! Staying in an open-air house off grid may not be for everyone but we would do it again for sure! Thanks for sharing your place with our family and giving us lasting memories.

It makes me happy to hear your holiday was such a success. Thanksgiving in the osa is an off season holiday but one worth spending with family. The low season tourism is directly linked to more animal viewing. Please come visit again

Amazing experience

Mil Flores was an amazing place to stay during our Osa experience. The home is beautiful and spacious. Monkeys and birds visited us daily. It's close to a couple of restaurants and multiple surf breaks. Michelle and Gretchen were incredibly responsive and helpful. Highly recommend!!

Great stay

Lovely house and yard located very close to Martina's bar and restaurant which came in quite handy for meals. Lots of wildlife to see. Woke up to howler monkeys around 4:30 every morning, so it was early to bed each night. Was afraid it would be warm at night and difficult to sleep but was quite comfortable with the breeze upstairs and the fans help a lot. Spent a lot of time on the porch just relaxing. Would like to return to OSA and would definitely want to stay here next time again

Family vacation

We had a wonderful time at this amazing house. Woke up to howler monkeys. We saw lots of macaws and 3 Other types of monkeys. The layout of the house is great, lots of room and the pool was really nice. The kitchen is big and easy to cook in. There is a restaurant nearby, we went for dinner one night. It’s kind of pricey, what you would pay in a resort town in the US. We had a wonderful time and would definitely recommend Michele’s house.

We are very happy you enjoyed your stay. The house is meant for a proper holiday and I designed the kitchen for ease of cooking. Eating out has limited options here so it’s nice to be able to cook like you are at home. The animals make matapalo such a special place!

Wildlife galore

Six of us had a wonderful stay at Casa Mil Flores. The house was well laid out and beautiful, the kitchen was large and had everything we needed. We loved the open air feeling and the breezes that moved through. We woke every morning to the howler monkeys and so many amazing birds, it was such a treat to sit on the huge patio with our coffee and take it all in. The dipping pool was a great asset to the house and was well used. The landscaping was really well done and provided privacy from the road and other houses. There is a great little restaurant within a 2 minute walk, a couple of nice beaches and a great little waterfall, river walk very close to the house.Michelle and Gretchen were super responsive and helpful and we hope to be back at some time.
