Beachfront tropical home with a jungle spirit and a sense of place.

Harmonizing with the lush surroundings, Panzalsol is a spacious home surrounded by lush gardens where you can hear the waves crashing, watch the scarlet macaws fly by, and enjoy the howler monkeys as they eat the property's mangos. The architecture of this very private house consists of a stunning palapa, the biggest in the area, handmade in the traditional indigenous method. All the rooms are decorated in local art and custom furniture designed and made in town by local artisans. Panzalsol is a place to relax in the hammocks, surf on the beach, hike in the mountains, stargaze, horseback ride, or simply enjoy long meals and conversations in the four different dining areas on
the property. The quaint Islita town is 5 minutes away, and it is famous for its picturesque square, friendly people and its open air art museum. The beach next door, Corozalito, is a protected area for sea turtles, and you can see them laying their eggs or hatching at various times of the year. The other next door beach, Camaronal, is one of the best surfing spots in Costa Rica (expert level only). Islita however provides a safe beach for bathing, as well as a nice wave for beginner surfers. The house is staffed with a housekeeper and maintenance person 24/7. At walking distance, the Hotel Punta Islita Autograph Collection offers a full spa, and two restaurants. There are other local restaurants in town as well, and Samara town, 25 minutes away, is a beachtown that offers numerous restaurants, organic markets, boutiques, pharmacy, bakery, clinic, and more. Panzalsol, and Islita town, provides visitors with an authentic Costarican experience for families that enjoy nature, culture and connecting with the locals. Chic, relaxed, barefoot luxury.
