Casa Verde offers you the unique opportunity to experience a peaceful and cozy retreat house, artistically decorated by owner and with accessibility to Tierra Pacifica amenities. Encounter remarkable animals, flora and fauna of the dry tropical forest within close proximity to some of the most beautiful beaches you will ever see.

Casa Verde’s open design incorporates the natural surroundings of the forest, beautiful landscaping and comfortable amenities to allow you to get the most out of your visit to Costa Rica. Wake up to howler monkeys, watch the various array of birds and animals, the amazing plants and flowers, pick seasonal fruit from our many fruit trees or just relax in the upstairs terrazzo, living/dining room, or screened porch.

Tierra Pacifica, where Casa Verde is located, is a wonderful place to be. Enjoy the pool, lap pool, hot tub, exercise room and/or tennis court at Club Arbol. Walk the roads and nature trails within the estate. Take part in the yoga classes on Tuesday and Thursday mornings. Feel secure and carefree knowing there 24 hour guards at Tierrra Pacifica.

Playas Junquillal and Blanca are only a few minutes away by car. You can also get to Playa Junquillal on foot via the beach trail. Eat at the local restaurants or buy food to cook at the nearby markets. Want to surf? Playas Negra and Avellanas are only about 15 - 20 minutes away and Tamarindo is about 40. We recommend Playa Avellanas if you are interested in surf lessons.

The downstairs layout of Casa Verde includes the master bedroom (king sized bed) with a full bathroom, the open dining room/living room area, a half bathroom, outdoor shower, screened porch, and fully equipped kitchen. The upstairs layout includes two bedrooms, each with a queen sized bed, a full bathroom, a half bathroom, a laundry area and outdoor terrazzo, half of which is covered. There is extensive tropical landscaping surrounding the house which includes many fruit trees.

Super cool, large space

This place is cool. It’s really big and easy for everyone to have space. The main shared spaces are screened (no glass windows) and it did take some adjusting. The bugs take some time too, but made the experience feel more authentic than staying at a culturevoid resort. The bedrooms are nice and comfortable, there are four bathrooms- two with showers- and a full kitchen, which was so useful for our family. The location made it easy for us to explore the amazing surrounding beaches and we could walk for most groceries.

Scenic and rustic property

If you are looking for total privacy and seclusion, this home has it. However, it is conveniently located within driving distance of amenities. The house is on the monkey highway so it's great fun to watch them travel by the house. The house has plenty of room for families or 2 or 3 couples. The open concept of the central living space may be hard to take if you have an aversion to the Costa Rican bugs and critters that often visit. The kitchen is screened but also somewhat open to the elements. Again, if you aren't used to this, it can also take adjusting to. The property manager is excellent. Georgina is professional, friendly and very responsive. We have stayed in properties that she manages on several occasions and have always appreciated the high level of service she provides.

Great spacious location with howlers nearby every day

Was a very nice property. You will need bug spray as the areas to sit are mostly open to the outside world but under a roof. Rooms had AC. Beach was 15 min walk or so but doable. Gate guards were helpful as was property manager. Caution. The surf can get pretty rough there. Plenty of room for kids to play but don’t let them get too far out as there can be significant rip tides. I enjoyed all of our stays in Costa Rica but this was my favorite. Only knock I had was one of the rooms ac units had a mildewy smell which was strong. Aside from that I highly recommend.

Awesome and Unique

My family of 5 (kids aged 9, 11, and 12) spent 7 nights at Casa Verde. It took a little adjusting to the open floor plan but we had it down after a couple of days. It was amazing to wake up early, sip coffee in a hammock, and watch the sunrise. We saw howler monkeys twice and several large iguanas either from the house or on the property. We enjoyed the nature trails. The pool is awesome! Tierra Pacifica is a very quiet property. The gate was always guarded and we felt very safe. We dined at two of the nearby restaurants. Amigos was one. The other was at a hotel near the end of the road. Both had good food and helpful staff. The drives into Tamarindo and Santa Cruz were easy (if you stick to the main roads.) I do recommend getting good driving instructions to find Tierra Pacific the first time. Our flight was delayed and we drove in the dark. It took us a while to find where we needed to be. Beyond that, Georgina was very helpful and we enjoyed our stay.

About the host

Hosted by Georgina Gordy

When not in Costa Rica, Martha and Eric reside in another beautiful part of the world, Vermont. Martha is an artist and Eric is a musician.

Why they chose this property

When we first came to Costa Rica we fell in love with the people and the land. After returning many times we started looking for a place to spend more time. When we came upon Tierra Pacifica, the beautiful environmental estate in Play Junquillal, we knew we had found our Costa Rican home.

What makes this property unique

We love being able to experience both the forest and the exquisite beaches of this beautiful area. There is nothing better than waking up to the howler monkeys that frequent the trees around our house. The town of Playa Junquillal is particularly wonderful because it is small, quiet, friendly and undeveloped. Club Arbol (part of Tierra Pacifica) with its beautiful pool and exercise room is state of the art and a wonderful place to hang out. Club Arbol also has a tennis court and a relaxing hot tub. We particularly enjoy walking the nature trails and roads within Tierra Pacifica and taking morning walks on the beach via the beach trail. We highly recommend the yoga classes which are held at the Club Arbol on Tuesday and Thursday mornings.
