We live in Washington, D.C. where Liz works for the Justice Department as an environmental prosecutor and Henry brings beauty and joy to the world through his art and occasionally practices law from the house, and took care of our two child who are not adults, Hannah (25) and Jonah (23) as of early 2025.
Why they chose this property
We wanted a place that was secluded and relaxing but also had outdoor and cultural attractions nearby. The fact it's only 25 minutes from an international airport was also a big draw.
What makes this property unique
The resort is quiet, secluded and very relaxing. If you're looking for a party scene then this is not for you. But for families with kids and couples it's a wonderful place to just kick back. You can even get a massage on the beach while listening to breaking waves and howler monkeys. Walks around the area yield beautiful views and birdwatching. Then again, if you get tired of all that peace and quiet and want to see and do stuff all the activities Costa Rica offers are very nearby: horseback riding, hiking, zip lining, scuba-diving, rafting, volcanoeing, hot springs, etc.
