Stay at the Treehouse

We had a wonderful stay! The location is nice and quiet, right on the beach and close to Quepos. The beach is clean and soft sand. Water great for body boarding. Only downside is there is no real comfy place to sit and relax. The property manager is fantastic. Would stay here again.

13 Nights at the Palo Seco Treehouse

This was our second stay at the Palo Seco Treehouse. The area is lovely and quiet, with the beach just across the road. The house was perfect for our five adult family members and had all of the amenities we needed. Debbie and Deems were great hosts, providing timely information prior to our stay and responding quickly if we needed anything once we arrived. I would highly recommend this property!

Ronald and his family were a joy to have here for the week. We look forward to them returning and visiting with them. Hopefully they will stay at one of our rentals again. They were our first family to really enjoy the Costa Rican experience with lots of tours, catering dinners for them along with other things. After they left, it was like saying goodbye to family. We wish them the best and hope to see them again.

Tuesday - Friday group

The house had everything we needed. Located a short walk down the driveway and across a dirt road took us to a beautiful beach on the Pacific. The home’s pool was very clean and refreshing. Perfect place!Debbie the property manager is incredibly responsive and helpful. With her assistance we had a surf fishing guide as well as a wonderful private guide for Manuel Antonio National Park.

Beautiful Palo Seco getaway

We stayed in this beautiful home for 9 nights and enjoyed every bit of our stay. The house itself was amazing, and being steps from the beach made it so much better. Debbie and Deems were very helpful and quick to respond. We loved cooling off in the pool each day and watching the Capuchin monkeys come through almost daily. A/C’s in each room made our nights very comfortable. We would definitely stay again. The only negative we would have for this awesome place, would be that there’s no couches or comfortable place to sit and relax after a long day out. The house has a big kitchen table to sit at, but not a good relaxing sitting area to wind down. Besides that, this place was Heaven!!
