Beautiful pool, 6-min walk from beach, ocean views - VILLAS CASA LOMA - Villa 4

COSTA RICA IS MISSING YOU! We loved having you both here as guests and trust that your vacation worked out well for you. Somehow, we were either too distracted or you were too busy with all of the distractions of our wonderful little corner of Paradise... We did not have a lot of chances to socialize as we would have liked. One assumes that with 2 tropical pools, excellent shops and restaurants, spectacular beaches and a myriad of fascinating things to see and do in and around our property you were just busy! (Good to know.) Last week we had the annual "Fiesta" in Brasilito, with bull runs, local crafts and food vendors ..Lots of fun! The next week starts the annual Mardi Gras in Flamingo with 'drag' races, a colorful parade with great music. All of this topped off with wonderful food and drinks. The skies have been spectacular here, too, with the full moon a few days ago so big and bright! We are definitely looking forward to seeing you both back here again soon. Lots to see and do!! PURA VIDA! Tom and Igor

Muchisimas gracias! We're so happy that you all had such good experiences at Villas Casa Loma! As you discovered, there are a vast number of things to see and activities - for every age group - all within minutes of our compound... Whether you come to just relax and unwind or are seeking a more active holiday, the choices are just about limitless. Your choice of renting a car obviously helped you to get around to a lot of interesting sites! Start your day with a delicious cup of Costa Rican coffee followed by an early morning swim in one of our pools or in the gentle Pacific. Take a leisurely stroll on one of the pristine beaches of the area. Hire a boat for a few hours of sailing and/or fishing. Visit the mud baths and volcano, horseback on trails in the jungle and zip line at nearby Rincon de la Vieja. Enjoy the abundant wildlife including the comical howler monkeys, colourful birds & parrots, turtles, deer, foxes, coatimundi, etc. Find a delightful local restaurant - (known locally as a "soda") - for a typical Costa Rican lunch followed by another late afternoon swim in one of our 2 tropical swimming pools. Top off the day with a colourful & spectacular sunset, or meet new friends at a beachside restaurant and enjoy some truly memorable cuisine! Perhaps even a freshly caught red snapper or lobster... The area has so much to offer and we are always happy to help with suggestions, reservations, etc. Come for the fun...Stay for special experiences! PURA VIDA!! Tom and Igor

Thank you so much for your kind Review ! It is always rewarding to be able to offer a memorable stay here in our little corner of Paradise ! Your comments are very much appreciated ! We hope that you will be pleasantly surprised at the recent changes we have made to the gardens - mainly clearing out some of the palm tree overgrowth in order to open up the vistas of the ocean, etc. ... Always a labour of love on our side that will hopefully pay off in appreciation from our guests ... The wildlife here is flourishing, as are Lorita - our talking, singing Amazon parrot - and her other parrot friends ! We are doing our level best to safeguard our furry and feathered friends here ... preserving our many hectares of private preserve for future generations, too. We look forward to your return to our little corner of Paradise and again thank you for your recent visit and encouraging words. PURA VIDA ! Tom and Igor Villas Casa Loma

It was a great pleasure to have you all staying with us here in our little corner of Paradise ! We thoroughly enjoyed you all and the fact that you were able to squeeze so much enjoyment from your visit, too. As you were able to see, the beaches here all have their own special "character", which makes it a really exciting experience to visit and compare them. So glad, too, that you were able to experience some of the excellent local restaurants - as well as to sample a variety of unique and special tours available here. (Next time we hope that you will also see some crocodiles, along witht he other wildlife that you witnessed.) We most certainly look forward to seeing you all again one day soon ... and don't forget to bring your senses of adventure and humour with you once more ! As you have discovered, it really pays off ! Pura Vida ! Tom and Igor
