Spectacular Sunsets, Ridge Top Ocean View, Tropical Tiny Home
Set on a coastal hillside ridge facing west- Loma del Sol Tropical Tiny Home overlooks Preita Beach, the beautiful Pacific Ocean and the prestigious beach community of Flamingo Beach, with its lovely beaches, marina, hills and valleys. An ideal vacation home away from home for those romantic couples seeking tranquility, comfort, and easy access to a wide variety of leisure activities.
AIRPORTS: Liberia International Airport - 45 minutes. San Jose International Airport - a pleasant 4 1/2 hour drive. Tamarindo (domestic) Airport - only 25 minutes away.
Find your tranquil place in the sun here in Costa Rica’s famous Gold Coast!. Fully-equipped, the accommodations have paddle fans and air conditioning The fully equipped kitchens include cutlery, dishes, coffeemaker, toaster, blender, fridge, microwave oven, etc. Weekly maid service is not included, but can be arranged .
This quaint little home features a Tuscan style of architecture, with stone facing on the lower floor ,arched windows and a Spanish tile roof. Breathtaking views of the surrounding ocean, hills, and valleys, uniting you with Nature. Many varieties of birds and animals, including hummingbirds, mott motts, parrots, butterflies, iguanas, sea turtles, monkeys, mapaches, even ocelots and other wild cats, coatimundi, armadillos and anteaters inhabit the surrounding hills and valleys of this 2.5 acre lot. The beauty of Nature is always only a glance away! Wake up to the sounds of the ocean, parrots, and monkeys.
Just minutes from your Tropical Cabina are supermarkets, shops, hotels, discos, casinos, and restaurants to satisfy the most demanding palate. Three 18 hole championship golf courses, full service marina, car or motorbike or bicycle rentals, excellent Spanish language school, beautiful uncrowded beaches for swimming or for quiet reflection, canopy tours, deep sea sport fishing, rafting, tennis, birding, surfing, and SCUBA/PADI. Within a few hours drive are Volcanoes, National Parks, waterfalls, jungle hot springs, caving, and much, much more!
If the more relaxed life appeals, lounge under the shade of the thatched patio, or the shade of one of the beautiful hardwood trees in a hammock. Do it all - or nothing at all! The choice is yours.
The upstairs bedroom is accessible with stairs, there are two places to sleep downstairs, the futon and the dinette both make into good beds. There is no pool, the ocean is your chlorine free infinity edge pool.
Year around temperatures hover between 72 and 92 degrees F. This is the dry tropical forest practically no rain falls from Dec 1 to May 1, it is dry, has a slight breeze and few mosquitoes. Rainy season is green, rains sometimes, is more humid, but still very pleasant. RAINY DAY GUARANTEE, ANY DAY BETWEEN DEC 15 AND APRIL 15 THAT RAINS FOR MORE THAN 30 MINUTES IS REFUNDABLE, XMAS WEEK AND EASTER EXCLUDED.

About the host
Hosted by Roy Benard
I originally was attracted to the area in 1974 and have owned and developed land here since then. I love the protected bay, the Catalina islands 5 miles out, and the almost deserted beaches nearby. The spectacular sunset views are what really attracted me to this 90 acre hillside property minutes away form the beach. The little village nearby has most everything and Flamingo on the other side of the bay has the Casino, night clubs, tourists, banks and other services.
Why they chose this property
Actually I built this home 10 years ago on property that I have owned since 1974. This piece of land is right on a ridge and not only has a great ocean view it has a mountain view and great breezes almost all the time. On the night of the full moon you can watch the sunset on the ocean and then turn 180 degrees and watch the full moon rising shortly after. There are almost magical sunsets all year around , great reflections on the water from this vantage point 100 meters up and 500 meters back from the beach. The beaches are not crowded and if one hikes or drives a few miles you can sometime get a beach to yourself.
What makes this property unique
I enjoy the dry tropical climate of this coastal area. After exploring all of Costa Rica I realized the humid areas were too humid , too rainy, and full of bugs. This area has way less insects, less snakes, and less humidity and rain then anywhere in the country. Just a fan or a breeze keeps one comfortable due to the drier air. Temperatures hover between 73 to 93 degrees all year around , and the ocean is about 80 degrees F, nice and comfortable . There are so many activities that I have listed above and some of the other attractions are only an hour or two away. COSTA RICA HAS 25% OF ITS LAND EITHER IN NATURE PRESERVES OR NATIONAL PARKS. I love photography , this is a photographers and an artists dream.
