A Great Place to hang out !
Here at Casa Mango we have fantastic pool with a big rancho. The rancho has a gas stove with tables for preparing and eating food. Sun chairs if you wish to lay back and soak up the sun. There is also a spectacular Deck over looking the water. Also a great place to eat your meals, drink the morning coffee, or just take in the view and enjoy the breeze. Inside we have a 46in flat screen TV with WiFi, and Netflix. A Bluetooth sound bar that can be brought outside to the rancho or deck, both have electricity. Refrigerator with Ice Machine and filtered water. Ceiling fans throughout the house. A/C in the bedrooms, and one in the main living area for those really hot days. Fully equipped kitchen, secure parking, hot water showers with good pressure. Comfortable mattresses, and a washing machine.
We also have a tour boat that leaves right from the property and goes to Isla Tortuga, Gitana, and others about twice a month. Private tours can be arranged as well.
Casa Mango is a quaint, rustic house restored to its former glory and updated to make your stay the best it can be. Right on the tip of the peninsula, Santa Eduviges. The place is located right on the Estero River from Puntarenas. We have a great view from our deck over looking the water to the "Angostura" from Puntarenas. There is no other place like this in Costa Rica. We are also conveniently located only 5 miles to the Ferry, supermarkets, bakery, and pulperia. We are in a "Real Tico Neighborhood" not a million dollar villa on top of a hill where you don't see or hear a soul. Our place is right where life goes on. This is how people really live in Costa Rica. The neighbors are mostly fisherman and retired people. All are friendly, humble, and working class. There is always some movement on the water, boats come and go all day. It's great sitting on the deck and watching the tides come and go, it's a forever changing landscape. There are many species of birds around all day including the occasional Scarlet Macaw, often seen flying in pairs or even eating from the tree right next to the deck. You can also fish from the deck, or even from the private pier we have on the property. You'll catch mostly catfish with an occasional stingray.
Going to Puntarenas at night is an experience as well with all the street food vendors and people hanging out on the board walk.
The bus stop is on the next corner, the bus will take you to Chacarita, Puntarenas Center, El Roble and other locations. Taxi's can be called, the public bus station is just 100m away.
