Welcome to LA JUNGLITA...A Crazy Monkey's Paradise!A new custom home that overlooks a jungle of tropical gardens while you relax in our PRIVATE lounge pool. Located within a 24/7 secured gated community, you also have access to a fully equipped gym, tennis and pickleball courts, & a 3-tiered waterfall pool. Our community is just over a 1.5 mile walk from Playa Junquillal; a long powdery dark sand beach featuring the wonderful sea turtle hatchery, VerdiAzul. See for yourself why we call this oasis: A Crazy Monkey's Paradise! La Junglita is a 1400 square foot custom built bungalow that sits on 1.25 acres of lush Costa Rican land. It resides on one of the 75 lots within the gated community of Tierra Pacifica complete with on-site security 24/7. The home was built in an open concept manner to maximize time spent with the ones you love. A fully equipped kitchen with stainless steel appliances and large island with bar stools face both the dining and living areas. The living room sofa changes to a king size pull out mattress with a luxury mattress topper to make your stay even more comfortable. All three bedrooms are furnished with queen size beds and night tables. The main bedroom has an ensuite bathroom connected via a large walk-in closet while the other two bedrooms have large built in closets and share the second bathroom. All rooms and the main social area are equipped with individual air conditioners. The outdoor space of the villa is the highlight of your stay. A beautiful lounge pool that looks out to the lush gardens surrounding you makes you think you are the only guests within miles and miles. Pool chairs and loungers, an outdoor shower, Blackstone BBQ grill, and pool toys are just a few of the things La Junglita has to offer. As Costa Rica is a tropical country, you will encounter insects and other small anthropods that may enter the home. We fumigate on a consistently timed basis and while this does help, it does not completely eliminate all the bugs that enter. Guests may escort out any insects with a broom and dustpan provided. La Junglita is a place for nature lovers where you be immersed in the sights and sounds of many different species & walks of life. If you have always wanted to see a howler monkey, look no further. We have several families that visit our exotic trees almost daily. The entire property of La Junglita is yours to use and can be accessed via a key code at the front entrance that will be given to you prior to checking in. In addition, as guests of La Junglita, you are also guests in our gated community meaning you have access to the amazing pool, fully equipped gym, and social areas of Club Arbol during your stay. A basketball court, tennis court, yoga/stretching room, and nature trails are also yours to discover throughout the Tierra Pacifica community. Identification will be required at the entrance gates of Tierra Pacifica where security will greet you and verify your stay. The area of Junquillal is quieter and more quaint than those looking for the hustle and bustle of Tamarindo but only 30 minutes from the action if you wish to experience it as well. There are several local restaurants, small grocery stores, and pristine beaches in and around the neighbourhood. Playa Junquillal, Playa Blanca, Playa Negra, Playa Avellenas, and Playa Tamarindo are all between a 5 minute and 30 minute drive. There are some small hills throughout the area that can make for beautiful walks. A car rental is recommended to experience all of what Costa Rica has to offer. We love our Junglita and it was a dream come true building this for our family and friends to enjoy. We hope that you, as our guest, will treat our home and property with the same utmost care and respect that we have in creating our dream. GOOD TO KNOW: Wi-Fi is 200 Mbps, great for remote work.
