No matter how many positive things I have to say about our visit to Costa Rica, and our stay at Bellena, I'm sure I will still have forgotten to mention many more. From original contact, the hosts, Charles and Carol, reached out with all kinds of helpful information on everything from airport arrival all the way to the front door of the property. This was supplemented countless ways, by their incredible property manager, Dawn, with suggestions on everything imaginable from where to buy the best local food and cheapest liquor to zip lining, beach options, quite a few great area restaurants (e.g. there's a delicious "upscale" French restaurant just at the bottom of the hill!), maid service, local private chef for hire; you name it! The property itself is incredibly spacious and the layout could not be better. All rooms in the house, including the upstairs master and the three bedrooms on the main floor, have wonderful views encompassing both the pool and the ocean; with the jungle in between...couldn't be better! We love to cook and found the kitchen both spacious and well appointed. As for accessing the property, we rented an SUV from the airport and never had any problem with the local roads or access to the property, even in heavy rain. Just as enjoyably, the Costa Rican people are very laid back and wonderful to interact with. My wife is already figuring out our next opportunity to visit. Thanks guys. Pura Vida!
