About the host
Hosted by Dean Hagan
Welcome to Casa Serena. We are so happy you chose to stay at our home and enjoy all the scenery our area has to offer.
We are from Texas in the middle of what we call the hill country, this is an incredibly beautiful place also. We purchased our Costa Rica property in October 2019 and had the house built during 2020, and what a challenge it was. Thankfully, we had some great people that helped us get our Costa Rica paradise finished since we could not be there because of COVID restrictions.

Why they chose this property
About 12 years ago my wife was invited to stay at a vacation home up northern pacific area, and she fell in love with it! Then my wife and I started doing the all-inclusive resort thing there and found that it was ok but all you see is the resort and an occasional excursion which focused on tourists. On our next trip, we decided to do away with the all-inclusive, rented a home and a car and drove from town to another town, visiting local places. We absolutely fell in love with the people and all the beauty. It was then that we knew we found the perfect place to retire eventually retire.
We started in the northern pacific looking for beach property, but realized that during the dry season it was hot and the air conditioner would need to run constantly and the northern part turns very brown during dry season. We made our way down to the southern regions and finally stayed in Uvita. We knew 100% that is where we wanted to build our dream home.
We purchased property in the gated community of Cascada Azul because of the cool evening breeze from the pacific, view of the jungle canopy, and a beautiful waterfall that lulls you to sleep. We knew we found paradise!

What makes this property unique
Our home is unique, just open the sliding doors out to the back, close the screen doors and let the Pacific breeze keep the house at a comfortable temperature, no need to run air conditioner even though I had one put in each room. You will probably have a visit from a few toucans!
Our favorite beach is Bahia Bellena beach in Uvita, when tide is low it feels like you own the beach, great place to see the beautiful Macaw birds and a few monkeys.
We love being able to share our paradise with others! Hope you enjoy our place as much as we do, sit back and relax and enjoy the environment the way it should be!
