About this property
Newly Renovated 2 King, 2 Bath, AC, Fiber Optic Villa Ocean and Valley Views
Recently renovated with new deck overlooking the mountain views to compliment the already existing deck by the pool with ocean view. New fixtures, paint, etc. *No children under 12 years of age
Two king bedrooms each with full bathrooms, AC, and high speed wifi. Gated, private entrance with covered parking.
Perfectly situated in an elevated neighborhood capturing cool mountain breezes while enjoying jaw-dropping views. Easy access to one of the most beautiful waterfalls and river systems in Costa Rica.
I fell in love with this property because of the dramatic valley, jungle and ocean views. I believe you will too. It sits high above two river valleys and adjacent to a waterfall below, easily accessible by car or short hike. You will want to be there every day.
This home was built in 2011, highlighting Asian characteristics with indoor / outdoor living and sliding glass doors that disappear into the wall for total access to the pool area. There are two bedrooms each with private bathrooms. The master has an outdoor shower and indoor Jacuzzi tub . The second bedroom has an indoor shower. The living area is accented by a fireplace that is only for decor. There is a patio adjacent to the pool where you can enjoy private sunbathing , stargazing and yoga. A/C is available in the bedrooms but is rarely needed as there is usually a steady breeze through the home keeping the temperature pleasant during the day and possibly 'chilly' at night.
I love to cook so the kitchen is stocked with the necessary pots, pans, mixing bowls, utensils etc to create a fantastic meals without leaving the mountain.
There is so much to offer that it is best to see the pictures and email me with any other questions you may have .
Pura Vida!!

About the host
Hosted by Natasha Pirani
Our family lived in Costa Rica full time for 15 years and were one of the first 'gringos' to build a home in the area.
Why they chose this property
San Josecito was an undiscovered gem that is now gaining the recognition it has long deserved. The location is second to none with short drives to the restaurants, shopping, beaches, waterfalls and other attractions. The mountain has a small town feel.
What makes this property unique
This home sits on over 6 acres and is perched over dramatic ocean and valley views. We have secondary forest running along the west side of the property which regularly brings monkeys and exotic birds to the property. When you aren't enjoying the local wildlife you have dramatic views of the ocean, valley or mountain peak.
