Costa Paraiso IS Paradise!
The actual property and the setting were even more glorious than the listing description. The house is perched on a cliff above the beach, overlooking the Pacific Ocean and the sunsets! It is set in the trees and plantings of the dry rain forest around it and has parrots chattering as they zoom past and butterflies fluttering along.
The house was perfect. The downstairs master suite overlooked the Pacific, had airconditioning in the room and the bath was lovely with local river rock lining the shower. The open upstairs was super for reading and watching the waves and encompassed seating areas, beds, covered terraces and an open air shower and tub. They were wonderful, as they were positioned so they were perfectly private--a bath in the deep tub watching the ocean is a real treat! The downstairs living and dining area, furnished in a tropical style, also looked over the Pacific and the grounds and another covered terrace was perfect for lounging. There ar
The food is delicious; the staff really knows how to cook! If you do go fishing in the company's 30 ft. boat, the crew and staff will clean and prepare your catch for you--they make ceviche and sushi as well as other cooked versions. You can choose. If you don't fish, the staff can buy spiny lobsters and often red snapper from a local fishing village. The staff is super!
The ride to the house is on bumpy roads, but it is well worth it as you see young boys on horseback herding cattle, cows being milked on the side of the road for waiting housewives, oxcarts carrying fire wood, and a local bus that is all painted all over with bright patterns. You go through little villages set right on the road, so you get a look at the local people and the houses.
You have your own stairs that wind down to the beach, so you can float and swim and explore the tidal pools, look for shells and the gorgeous rocks that were formed during the volcanic era when
Nicaragua was formed. You can walk around the property to see other homes, wild orchids in the hills, and the ocean views from ahigh.
The staff can make arrangements for you to go sightseeing or to a beach restaurant about 30 min. away or to go horseback riding in the hills and on the beach. (Doing this ahead of your visit is the easiest.)
The ride out to the house is on a bumpy road, but it is worth it! You see kids on horseback herding cattle, cows being milked along the roadside, ox carts with fire wood and little villages. I can't wait to go back!
