There is a lot to take care of on 2-and-a-half acres so we have a grounds keeper to help take care of the grounds throughout the year. He often picks fresh fruit or coconuts for our guests during their stay.

**Please make sure to not leave any food out on the counters. Costa Rica is a jungle country and every critter looks for food. In order to eliminate most bug and ant problems, it is very important that all food is placed in containers or in the refrigerator. Make sure no food is left out.**

**Also, please note that our policy is that there are no refunds for any reason for days used or not used. So rather than asking for a refund, if there is something wrong with your accommodations, let us know right away and we will do our very best to fix any problems. Some problems that may be related to the weather may not be fixable during your stay. We will do our best to address them and help your stay be as enjoyable as possible.**
