Om boendet

Djungeln bor på det bästa! Sover 2-9 personer i Caribes mest önskade område.

Huset kan hyras som antingen en trädgårdsnivå lägenhet (max 2 personer / $ 90 natt standard och $ 125 / prime), ett träd-nivå 2 sovrum hem (upp till 7 / $ 140 natt standard och $ 175 prime) eller hela huset (upp till 9 / $ 220 natt standard och $ 275 pris). Oavsett storleken på din grupp är varje hyra endast till en fest åt gången. Ägare behåller rätten till att besätta den nivå som inte hyrs.

Den fullt möblerade lägenheten på 100 kvm bottenvåningen rymmer två; välja att få sovrummet ordnat med ett par enkelsängar eller en enorm kung, allt utrustad med madrasser av hög kvalitet, fylliga kuddar och importerade sängkläder. Möbler tillverkade av återvunnet virke inkluderar en torrbox, garderober och takfläktar. Säkerhetsskärmar ger mycket luftflöde eller kan vara slutna för att garantera absolut integritet. Vi har gjort allt vi kan för att garantera en god natts sömn, men Howler Monkey "väckarklocka" är utanför vår kontroll ... ta upp det med dig över din första kopp finkostrikansk kaffe som du kan njuta av i trädgårdsranchita.

Nedre köket inkluderar sortiment, brödrost, kylskåp, mixer, kaffebryggare, köksredskap och bordinställningar så att du kan laga dina egna måltider. Vi kommer att lagerföra några grundläggande för din ankomst och sedan hjälpa dig att skörda många av dina ingredienser från trädgårdarna, shoppa den vecko bondens marknader eller prata med mobila leverantörer över lokala frukter och grönsaker, fisk, ägg och kött. Mag upp till frukostbaren för avslappnad sittplats, ät dig vid träbordet under takfläktarna eller gå ut till pooldäck eller ranchita för en gourmetpicknick i trädgården.

Den stora sittplatsen är möblerad med hantverkare av bambusmöbler. Soffan och två stora stolar har dynor i det vägglösa rummet där utsidan smälter inåt. Under de stora takskydd och takfläktar är detta område svalt även på de varmaste dagarna. Hängmattor längs omkretsen lägger dig under tak men praktiskt taget i trädgården, ett dekadent sätt att tillbringa eftermiddagen.

Ett av de vänliga badrummen har en handfat snidad från en trädstam, mosaik i växande stil och en trädgårdsdusch. Alla kranar levererar sanerat varmt vatten. Ett sortiment av badrumsväsen och handdukar av hög kvalitet är för hemmabruk och vi tillhandahåller saronger för stranden. En jacuzzi ligger under taket av ett traditionellt halmtak så att du kan njuta av de vackra trädgårdarna oavsett väder. Poolen har en sandstrand med nollinträngning, våt däck för sol och djup. Detta har blivit en favoritplats för att se aporna över huvudet.

Trädnivån på övervåningen är en öppen planlösning, där du ibland är i ögonhöjd till tjutarna och doven som ofta äger fastigheten. Köket, matsalen och vardagsrummet är omgivet av bannister och öppna väggar, som att bo på ett stort täckt däck. Effekten är fantastisk. Luftfläktar i hela rymden kompletterar de naturliga vindarna.

Utrustat med ett fullt utrustat kök, stor kyl / frys, 6 spis, ugn, dubbelt handfat, prep ö, mikrovågsugn, brödrost, mixer och ett överflöd av högkvalitativa köksredskap, köket drar in hjälpare för familjen stil fest. En gas-BBQ ligger runt hörnet för att möjliggöra enkel åtkomst, men säkerställer säkerhet.

Med en enorm bordshand konstruerad av ett enda träd kommer matplatsen att sätta upp till 10 bekvämt. En stor mängd servis, i härliga ljusa fiesta färger sätter ett bord som gör varje måltid till en fest. Eller samla besättningen och spela kort, brädspel eller bygga ett pussel när du bara vill sitta högt upp och titta på vad som kan klättra, krypa, krypa, flimra eller surras när du blickar ut genom träden till trädgården nedan.

Vardagsrummet har en stor dämpad soffa och två stora dämpade stolar, två gungstolar och en hängmatta. Ett handtryckt spelbord har backgammon, checker / schackbräde och cribbage. WiFi i hela huset håller dig ansluten och kan posta dessa selfies till svartsjuk vänner hemma.

Det stora sovrummet har en king size-säng och huvudgavel tillverkad av återvunnen virke designad för att fira de karibiska färgerna och filosofin om upp-cykling. Overheadfläkt och säkra skärmar skapar en vilsam natt sömn. Privat badrum inkluderar ett handfat och toalett med dusch som ligger på en avsats som sträcker sig utanför husets baksida. Generösa planteringar och skärmar ger blygsamhet medan de ger en unik upplevelse. Ett konstnärligt väggmålning som visar en strandbild skapad av en lokal konstnär täcker det inre badområdet, medan en mosaikinstallation designad / installerad av ägaren täcker duschområdet.

Den andra familjens sovrumssvit är två distinkta rum. Sovrummet har en king size-säng med ett handgjorda sänggavel av levande kant trä designade av husägare. Genom att använda de ofta bortkastade bitarna av fallna träd, väcker huvudgaveln fantasin på samma sätt som att se bilder i moln. Familjerummet har också en våningssäng med en dubbel på botten och en tvilling på toppen. Sängen är också tillverkad av återvunnet virke och levande kantvirke. Sov väl att du räddade ett träd !! Det angränsande badrummet har även en handfat och toalett i huset och en dusch ligger bakifrån. Här är temat djungel med en vattenfallsscen som visar lokala Volio Falls, en favorit dagstur för lokalbefolkningen.

Omfattande planteringar och en groddamm ger livsmiljö för många djurarter; hålla koll på Max doven och hennes expanderande familj som nu upptar flera träd på fastigheten, fånga de rutinmässiga besök hos agoutis och prova lyckan med att nabba det perfekta fotot av den magnifika blå morfofjärilen när den regelbundet väver genom trädgården. Uteserveringar, pool, badtunna, hängmattor och täckta picknickbord fördjupar dig i den tropiska miljön med hundratals arter av bromeliader, tillandsias och orkidéer. Heliconias, gingers och andra blommande växter lockar en oändlig regnbåge av fåglar och fjärilar. Vi är stolta över utformningen av våra hem- och trädgårdsutrymmen för att maximera naturens paradis.

Ägare, Janet & Nick, delar hemmet med sin växande Rhodesian Ridgeback valp, Zuri, och en svårfångad katt, Delgado; de är tillgängliga för dig när du behöver, frånvarande när du inte gör det. Tja, katten gör verkligen vad han vill och Zuri kommer säkert att dyka upp när hon tror att du är villig att kasta en pinne. UPDATE: Janet, Nick och Zuri övervakar ett nytt projekt på stranden, så från och med mars 2018 kommer vi att erbjuda hela huset (!!) för semesteruthyrning på en begränsad basis. Övervåningen och bottenvåningen hyrs endast som en enhet och kommer att vara "först till kvarn". Vi kommer att hedra alla aktuella bokningar till och med februari 2019 i bottenvåningen. Utrymmet på trädgårdsnivå har varit så populärt för par och BFF: s resor tillsammans, och tror att det kommer att fortsätta ge en plats på plats för större grupper eller familjer som behöver ett större utrymme.

Jungle fever.

First off, the pictures do not do it justice. It is a tropical paradise with so many different species of birds, insects and animals. We were serenaded by howler monkeys on a regular basis, we saw many agoutis, heard multiple species of frogs and lizards. All of the rooms are gorgeous. The outdoor showers are great and the beds are extremely comfortable. The hammocks are a nice touch and they were used regularly. There’s a great selection of spices and things you will need to cook with. We cooked many meals here as the whole layout upstairs is great for entertaining as well as the kitchen downstairs that we did not even use. There’s three grocery stores that are within a half mile of the home. The beach is across the street. We found that Playa Chiquita was our favorite beach. There are several local tours you can do and I highly recommend the Ara tour with the great green macaws & the Jaguar rescue center. Communication with the owners is very quick for anything you might need. The pool was a perfect respite after a warm day of shopping and beaching. Thanks Janet & Nick.

Unique place to stay!

Private in a quiet and safe area close to the quiet beach. This is a cool place and labor of love for the owners. It is open air with a great acreage to walk the trails at night and look for frogs and cool night insects. Heard howler monkeys, parrots, toucans, and the pool was perfect. Hammocks for lazing around and great facilities for cooking. If you are one of the people who insects love to bite you just may need to put a little bug dope on if they are out- they weren’t bad when we were there and may not ever be. It is pretty dry. The community is small and so festive. Try eating at the local sodas for a delicious meal and the tours and kayak rentals are great. Sloths and monkeys- Caribbean beaches. This place is laid back and has it all in a quiet setting- not like the bigger places. The hosts were awesome. Don’t miss this cool place.

Incredible experience

Wow, where do I start?! My husband and 3 of our friends stayed at Anglers Lair for just shy of 3 weeks and it turned out to be an extraordinary experience in the jungle! We had red eyed tree frogs singing at night in the foliage around the frog pond, and then the howler monkeys waking us up at around 5am with their troupe “conversations”! Blue morpho butterflies weaving through the property in the morning, teasing me to try and capture a photo of them! Macaws flying overhead, with an occasional stop in some of the property trees. A young howler monkey scampering across the rope that is strung between two trees by the pool - as we watched in stunned disbelief from eye level of the open floor plan of the 2nd floor of the rental! And then as if to not be outdone, a sloth took that same trek along the rope a few days later! Agoutis foraging for roots. Golden orb spiders freaking us out on occasion when we forgot where their webs were! The poison dart frogs even made their presence known! The plant life around the property is just as varied and beautiful as the wildlife! We were certainly immersed in the jungle experience at the property! Oh, and our short hikes from the rental property down the trail to Playa Chiquita to bob in the surf surrounded by palm tree lined beachfront with a handful of other delighted beachgoers - what an incredibly beautiful and nearly secluded beach!!! Nice restaurants close by; wonderful hosts! Still smiling! Pura Vida!

Amazing place.

The pictures are exactly as the property is. This place is amazing, we were able to see almost all the Costa Rican wildlife from the privacy of the decks. We even had a sloth just outside the gate. Janet is a great host with quick responses if we had any questions.

Amazing Adventure

If you're looking for Western luxury, this might not be your place. But if you want a jungle adventure, it's truly amazing! It was gorgeous and beautifully blended with the nature around it. It was a little hot for me at times, but I made a lot of use of the small pool. I was pleasantly surprised that although we spent most of our time outdoors, we didn't notice many mosquitoes. And I was very comfortable sleeping at night with the fans. I really enjoyed the area and the beaches and activities like the Jaguar Rescue and tour of a chocolate farm. Oh, and if you're terrified of spiders, just be aware that there are a lot of big, harmless garden spiders. I found them kind of fun.

Beautiful place in walking distance to Playa Chiquita

We had a great stay at Janet’s house. Very spacious, beautiful nature around, well equipped kitchen. Great pool area and friendly staff. Just really need be careful of the racoons - both nights they had a little dinner party and ate everything they could find that was not completely locked away :) We would have loved to stay longer

A lovely jungle home

The house was just perfect for our family. It was great to have the space to sprawl out; even our own bathrooms. The open air kitchen and lounge spaces connected us to the surrounding jungle. The pool was an added bonus for my 5 year old granddaughter. She loved it! I think anyone wanting a jungle and beach vacation will be happy staying here!

Great Jungle Experience

We had a wonderful time at Janet's Jungle house! If you are looking to experience the jungle in Costa Rica, this is the place for you. Janet was very helpful with transportation and information and was easy to communicate with. We loved the open concept of the house and picked it for that feature. Of course that comes with all that the jungle has to offer. It is a beautiful area and the people were very friendly. The beaches were amazing and pristine. I would definitely recommend for anyone looking to experience the CR jungle and all that Puerto Viejo has to offer.

Paradise

I have been traveling in Costa Rica for the past 18 years and I believe this was one of my most favorite spots. I have always loved Puerto Viejo and this House is just the best. A perfect distance from town, beaches, markets and great restaurants. The yard it enchanted, we saw the most wildlife in the yard, waking to howler monkeys, mom & baby sloth. Blue Morphio butterflies, red eye tree frogs and more. The house is comfortable and well stocked with anything you could need. Janet was amazing, easy to working with and very accommodating. I would love to spend more time here. We will be back!

Paradise found!

We were booked to stay at the Anglers Lair for 3 weeks and could only stay 2 because of the call home in regards to the Covid 19 virus. The two weeks there were amazing. Save your money on the jungle tours, we saw all kinds of animals right in the yard! Toucans, howler monkeys (yes, we got the 4:30am wake up call! We didn’t mind because it was so cool listening to them!) Two toed sloths, great green macaws, assorted frogs and lizards, agoutis, Morpho butterflies, lightning bugs and a three toed sloth that walked right through the yard to climb up the tree that is immediately outside the outdoor shower! The house had everything thing we needed. The hammocks were so relaxing and the pool was our favorite place, especially at the start of the trip when we’re were getting used to the heat. As far as the issue with bugs...yes there are bugs, big ones! Lol. But they are harmless and actually quite interesting to look at. There were no mosquitoes at all. I brought all sorts of bug spray and didn’t even have to take it out There are nets above the beds but we did not need to use them. Janet and Nick were amazing hosts. If there were any questions or issues they were just a phone call away. Nick was gracious enough to take me and my friend for a tour to get us acquainted with the area as well as taking us to get a few groceries. There is a small store to pick up some items that is a 10 minute walk from the house. The beach , Playa Chiquita, was approximately 500 yards or 10 minute walk from door to sand. It was a beautiful beach with plenty of private areas where you could set up yourselves for the day. Location is great if you want to be a little ways away from Puerto Viejo. But it’s close enough to town that a quick cab, tuk tuk, bike ride or local bus ride is not an issue. You don't need a car rental but bikes would be handy getting around. There are a few restaurants very close by. Gypsea restaurant was very good. Ask if the have fresh lobster so that you can have their lobster Benedict. Yum and huge portion. Their coffee is amazing! Janet had booked us the rafting trip that picked us up at our hotel in San Jose and took us rafting down the Pacuare river for the day and then dropped us off at Anglers Lair that evening. I would definitely recommend this. What a perfect way to get to Anglers Lair at the start of your trip. (Or to get back to San Jose at the end of your trip) Thanks again Nick and Janet, we hope to see you again soon. Take care!

This is the most incredible house, but don't tell anyone

We absolutely loved our stay at Angler's Lair! My wife cried when we left. Nick and Janet were amazing with helpful hints, and locals to contact for our needs. This house is amazing! The description does not do the house or the property justice! Even the pictures do not fully tell how wonderful this property is. I almost don't want to elaborate because I feel it will be so popular that we won't get another booking. ;). The House- it is a lot bigger than it appears in the photos. My rating of cleanliness is not a reflection on the quality of work, but on the overall building. There are so many nooks and crannies that it would be impossible to make the entire place spotless. We were not at all disappointed with the cleanliness. There are fans provided, and the sleeping areas were screened in, and very few bugs and critters got in. There were 4 of us, and not once did we feel cramped. There was lots of room. The beds were very comfortable too. Kitchen was fully equipped. It even had a mango corer, a saviour during mango season. Fridge and stove were brand new. Area- Playa Chiquita is an ex pat haven. Lots and lots of expats. There are ample restaurants. Be aware that the restaurants are geared towards expats, and charge accordingly. They charge in Colones, and if you aren't aware of the conversion, you may end up paying $100 for breakfast. There is a popular grocery store down the road (5 minute walk) that has everything you may need, including a gluten free shelf. Beach- The beach is a magical walk away. All beaches are public in CR, so to get there, you walk down the road about 100m, then through a jungle trail to the beach. The most immediate beach has an undertow, so I would suggest walking to the right about 100m, to a more protected beach. There are some rocks at the point with some sandy tidal pools to hang out in. Just be aware of the undertow, it is there, and you do not want to get caught in it. Overall, we will be back. We just got home, and are starting to plan our return. Wildlife- As I have said on other reviews of houses in Costa Rica, don't go to Costa Rica, if you don't want to interact with wildlife. There are bugs in the house as in every house in CR. Big ones. But ones that won't hurt you. There are animals about. Agouti, Macaws, racoons, chameleons, and geckos to name a few. We saw monkeys on the tree beside the shower! We cannot thank Janet and Nick enough. We will be back, sooner than later.

First time on the Caribbean side

This tropical oasis is a must stay here on the beautiful Caribbean coast of Costa Rica. The host family was very generous to offer their home at an affordable rate with all of its amenities. I thoroughly enjoyed everything about this jungle retreat. The home itself is located smack dab in the middle of two bustling beach towns so there was a plethora of activities to do from kayaking, to hiking, to just relaxing out on the hammocks on the property. This “tree house” has a very homey vibe and is a great atmosphere for the entire family. You even have two pets that will visit you on the property if you’re missing your own animals back home! Delgato, the sweetest cast you’ll ever meet, trust me even if you aren’t a cat person you soon will after meeting him! As well as Zuri, a Rhodesian Ridgeback dog, who is obviously well adapted to the jungle life and as friendly as can be. Janet and Nick are both very knowledgeable about the area so don’t hesitate to ask them about the best spots to spend your day! If you’re worried about bugs within the open concept of the house don’t be! We slept in the upstairs rooms with all the doors open and did not receive any bug bites or see hardly any bugs, which was really unexpected. If you’re kind of ify about the sleeping arrangements Janet and Nick provided mosquito nets and plenty of fans to accommodate even the most pampered of guest (like myself). The wildlife you see on the property is as good as any tour I’ve been on within the country, and it’s all right outside your front door. You WILL see monkeys, iguanas, frogs, and a number of different species of birds. All around I highly recommend checking out Angler’s Lair while you’re in Costa Rica you will not be disappointed.

Great adventure

Our family of 4, including to children under 10, loved this place, the adventure, the pool and hot tub, the proximity to beach and restaurants. It was excellent!

stop looking and book this property!

I fell in love with this property from the moment I saw in on VRBO and it did not disappoint. My husband and I stayed on the first floor for our honeymoon and it was perfect. The house itself was just amazing, to live so connected to nature, the first thing you see when you walk out of the bedroom is the garden and often a hummingbird or butterfly zipping by. We'd drink our morning coffee in the hammocks and watch the agoutis sneak through the gardens. We saw more wildlife hanging out at the house than we saw in either of the 2 national parks including 4 sloths, one of which had a baby attached to her, so I guess technically 5 sloths. Janet and Nick, the hosts, are lovely people and very helpful planning excursions. They were always available to answer questions and recommend things to do. I honestly don't think our stay in Puerto Viejo would have been as lovely if we stayed anywhere else, we definitely recommend staying here!

Jungle Paradise

Janet and Nick are amazing hosts. They went above and beyond to make our stay great! The jungle house is a great experience with lots of wildlife visitors : toucans , humming birds, frogs and lots of other visitors. The cool pool provided a refreshing option. The kitchen was extensively stocked so that making our own meals was a breeze. Highly recommend this property and we would definitely stay again.

Location is amazing

We loved the house and its location. Access to some of the beast beaches were just a few hundred meters away. We stayed with 6 people in the house and it was so spacious. Great for large families or families with children. The landscape is amazing around the place. We awoke to a whole troop of howler monkeys on our first day and it was incredible. We cooked breakfast and lunch everyday in the open kitchen. Remember this is jungle living so everything here is really outside; even the showers. If you can deal with some bugs and lizards you will be fine. Restaurants around the place were also great. It is about 3 miles from the main town of Puerto Viejo. Janet and Nick were very helpful during our stay. We actually drove our car into a ditch and they came right away the next morning to help us figure out what to do. They had lots of knowledge to share and told us where to go for the best beaches and food. We will definitely come back. This place is amazing and you won't regret staying here or visiting the Caribe del Sur!

The property was a unique jungle home. Very open all around to let nature be a part of staying here

Janet and Nick were super helpful. With everything from bus travel to tour and eating recommendations. They were great hosts and went out of their way to help during our stay since this was our first time here. I definitely recommend staying here and will again if we ever get back this way.

I enjoyed a career in social services working primarily with adolescents, or perhaps being worked over by them. Nick, a geologist, was involved in environmental cleanups since T-rex littered. We raised a quartet of kids between us, and when it seemed that they wouldn't notice us missing from the supper table, we fled to Costa Rica to contemplate the social and environmental quandries with a beer in our hand and our feet in the sand.
We soon discovered we really stink at relaxing, got involved with the local fishing community by buying a fishing boat and adopting Captain Pino. Then we needed a place to sleep all the friends and family that noticed us missing from Oregon, so we built the rental apartment. Finally, with friends showing up, guests needing a place to eat their fresh caught fish, we decided owning a Bar/Restaurant would be a good idea. Really, I always dreamed of a full-time cook who understood bacon, chocolate and chile are essential to a flavorful life!
In 2018, we broke ground on a new home that promises to knock your socks off, so stay tuned for news on Chiquita Escondido. Meanwhile, we are making the whole house available, while we live on site at the beach... ahh, the sacrifices!!

Varför värden valde detta boende

We fell in love with the area on a family vacation in 2004. By 2006, having made 6 trips, we were planning on the 'someday' move to paradise. We relocated in 2010 and have enjoyed 'pre-tirement' in a tropical paradise!

Vad som gör detta boende unikt

You have it all! The beach, the village, equi-distant to Puerto Viejo or Manzanillo. It's a quiet neighborhood away from the hustle-bustle of the party in Puerto Viejo but close enough to enjoy the truly unique culture that exists and thrives.
