About this property
BEST Whale's Tail View, 5 Stars, Separate Guest Suite, Indoor, Outdoor Showers,
If you like being spoiled by expansive, breath-taking ocean views and an ever changing landscape, this is the vacation spot for you. This fabulous, newer upscale home with an open floor plan and a large covered terrace is perfect for small & large gatherings with family and friends. The location provides delightful daytime and night-time breezes and has one of the finest Pacific views available in the exquisitely beautiful Costa Verde Estates. Nestled on the side of the mountain at a 1900' elevation, the ideal temperatures typically range from 75º-85º F during the day and the low-mid 70's at night.
No Air Conditioning needed as the micro-climate in Costa Verde is about 10-15 degrees cooler than at sea level, yet let the sound of the ocean waves breaking a mile below lull you to sleep at night.
Being above the "bugline", year around, we experience almost no biting insects. Daily, you will awaken to the sounds of Toucans, Aracari's and a wide variety of monkeys, birds and other rain-forest animals.
Outdoors and indoors become one with large screened triple sliding glass doors, opening the large interior space to a huge covered terrace. Enjoy all of your meals on the terrace, overlooking the 50' lap pool and the spectacular view of the Whales Tail and beautiful coastline. The pool also includes a half-moon shallow area for your lounging enjoyment. Several pool floats are available for guest use.
The main house features beautiful, exposed, wood-beamed, high ceilings & tile floors throughout, and includes the following: Great Room with fabulous open space, comfy seating, media center with large flat screen TV; Well-equipped Gourmet Kitchen with center island, SS appliances, granite counters w/seating for 4; Master suite with a pillow top queen-size mattress, large wardrobe, sliding door to the covered terrace, en suite full bath with both an inside and outside shower; Guest Bedroom with a queen-size bed and bunk beds, sliders to enjoy the ocean view and gardens, clothing cubbies plus an adjacent full bath with walk-in shower. Office with broadband Wifi and a large desk can also serve as a 4th bedroom with an extremely comfortable queen-size sofa bed.
A separate Guest House, allowing guests to enjoy their privacy, has a queen size bed, clothing cubbies, a private en suite bath with outdoor shower. Begin your morning listening to the birds singing, the waves lapping, while enjoying spectacular views of the Whales Tail and Pacific Ocean, either from your bed or your own covered terrace.
Lush colorful gardens surround the house and provide a tranquil, nature-filled setting for your dream vacation getaway.
Costa Verde Estates is most often referred to as the premier gated community in the Escalares Section of the Zona Sur in Costa Rica. There are approximately 20 families living in Costa Verde at this time and 4± rental houses. You'll feel safe and secure while having a total sense of privacy.

Sol y Mer Guidelines:
Pool – No glassware in the pool area. If broken glass were to get in the pool, it would have to be drained, cleaned and refilled with 30,000 gallons of water and more than 1500 lbs. of salt, after which it would take 6 mos. to stabilize. Please return the floats to the garage or the shade when you’ve finished with them for the day. Please do not take them off the property or leave them sitting in the sun.Please be sure to shower thoroughly before entering the pool. I’m sure you hope everyone else does as well. E-coli is no one’s friend.
Screens - Feel free to keep them open during the day. Close them as soon as the sun goes down and lights go on. We advise against leaving the front door open.
Smoking – Permitted only outside.
Towels, Sheets, Laundry, etc. Please do not put sandy towels into the wash without drying them out first (not in the dryer) and shaking out the sand. Do not bleach any of OUR linens or towels. Bleach is provided as a convenience only for your own items. On Departure Day please be caught up on all dirty laundry except for the sheets and towels used this day. Do not leave wet towels in a pile. They will quickly smell and rot and have to be replaced. If this happens, the cost will be deducted from your security deposit. Hang them inside on the towel bars or outside on the railings. Please run the dishwasher before you depart.
Furniture, etc. Please do not rearrange the furniture. use the coasters provided and take care with the finished wood surfaces. Please treat our house as if it were yours (unless you trash yours, in which case, please don’t trash ours☺).
Beach Chairs & Boogie Boards: There are 5 beach chairs and 2 boogie boards provided for your enjoyment. They are in the garage. Please return them to the garage. DO NOT EVER LEAVE THEM, OR ANY OF YOUR ITEMS UNATTENDED AT ANY COSTA RICA BEACH. Also, never park your car unlocked or with anything of value in view anywhere. This is a third world country and the thieves are incredibly resourceful; they can spot a rental car coming 10 km in the distance. That said, we have never been the target of thieves, but know people who have.
Please always rinse off with the hose by the garage when returning from the beach. Do not shower off the sand, as it will clog the septic field.
Please never sit on the interior furniture in wet clothing or bathing attire.
NO PETS - House to be used by only those specifically listed on the rental contract. Violation will result in immediate termination of agreement without refund

Why they chose this property
After owning several properties in the Zona Sur area, we were lucky enough to find this property in the exclusive Costa Verde Estates. We have seen no other property with views to match what you will find here in our home.
What makes this property unique
Bomber view of the Whales Tale, Pacific Ocean, Osa Peninsula and Caño Island await you as you sit at the outdoor granite table to enjoy your breakfast. Toucans and parrots may come by to serenade and entertain you. White face monkeys make an appearance sometimes first thing in the morning. The 1900' elevation insures comfortable temperatures virtually every day of the year.
We designed this house especially for this lot and to suit our comfortable lifestyle. It is a great house for entertaining.
