This place is amazing! We spent a month in this home 6/25-7/25 2016. The view is breathtaking. Special thanks to Dan, he was great. We loved the housekeepers, the gardener, the friendly gate security and the neighborhood Boxer who came to stay with us, the last four days of our trip, we miss him so much❤️. This home is in a great location, not too far from most things. We were able to visit Arenal, Jaco, Lapaz, zoo avenue, Grecia, and many more. We could hear toucans almost every morning from the deck and even spotted them on a few occasions. We also saw a kinkajou in a tree by the hot tub. We loved having our meals at the house, the kitchen is fully equipped. The sunsets are beautiful. Even when it rains, it is beautiful, with the fog in the canyon scattered among the trees. This place is a paradise. We loved it!! We experienced a small earthquake while we were there, that was exciting. The mango trees are everywhere and had plenty of mangos to eat. We did rent a car for three weeks and 4 days, the cost was pretty expensive $2100, we rented the car from the referred company. Over all, this was the best vacation we have ever been on and we can not say enough nice things about it. A huge thanks to the Taylor's for allowing us to experience Costa Rica in your home, we loved it. We would love to come back in the future. We hope that others visiting the house would be so kind as to cook a nice breakfast for our boxer friend, and the Doberman mix, they love French toast and bacon. Pura Vida. ❤️🌴
