Om boendet

Oöverträffad utsikt över havet och bergen! Slå samman! Privat kock / städning ingår!

La Paila är unik bland de flesta villor du hittar!
- Bred panoramautsikt över Stilla havet är enastående. Huset ligger på en av de högsta höjderna med utsikt över Samarabukten och dalen med dramatisk utsikt. Himmel och ljus förändras under hela dagen, ofta i spektakulära solnedgångar över Stilla havet.
- personalen kommer att förbereda måltider, städa huset dagligen och göra tvätt! Poolen och grunderna är professionellt underhållna. Koppla av och njut! Personalen bor i ett separat hus på fastigheten som ger säkerhet och tillgänglighet men också så mycket privatliv som du vill.
- gratis förlagring av mat för din ankomst
- La Paila är designad med ett stort vardagsrum som har matsal, sittplatser, underhållning och spelområden. Det har inga väggar så att du är direkt ansluten till utsikten, vinden och naturen! (Alla fyra sovrummen är säkra och luftkonditionerade).
- La Paila är mycket privat, lugn och tyst. Vi har bara några få nära grannar och det finns ingen genomgående trafik
- La Paila är designad i den koloniala kosta-rikanska arkitekturstilen och utses med konst och artefakter som firar Tico och Guanacaste-kulturen. Möblerna är mestadels lokalt tillverkade av tropiska lövträ. Fördjupa er lite i Costa Rica!

För din underhållning finns satellit-TV med videobandspelare / DVD, Bose-stereo (med iPod-anslutning) och gratis WiFi. Men du kan också lata i hängmattan eller loungen i poolen! Vi har bordtennis- och backgammonbord och andra brädspel, en volleyboll / badmintonplan, dart! Ta med dig boogiebrädorna till stranden eller använd i poolen!

Naturen finns i överflöd: flockar av papegojor flyger förbi varje morgon och kväll, howler- och kapuchinapor kommer att besöka trädgården i trädgården, och kanske ser du en coatimundi ... eller en hel familj! Mangos faller av träden från maj till juli.

Solnedgångarna kan vara fantastiska men leta också efter Vintergatan som sträcker sig över himlen, eldkulor, gröna blinkar, månringar och regnbågar!

Använd villan som ett avskilt tillflyktsort för ren FoU eller som en hemmabas för dagsutflykter. Den dagliga destinationen för de flesta?: bara fem minuter bort med bil ligger den ikoniska, palmfodrade, två mil långa Playa Carrillo (Carrillo-stranden), en certifierad "blå flagg" -strand i Costa Rica (betyder att den är säker och ren)! Det erbjuder enastående strandpromenader, jogging, simning och picknick. Ridning finns på flera stränder. Ta djuphavsfiske efter marlin, tonfisk, svärdfisk och mahi-mahi. Sköldpaddsövervakning är i närheten av Playa Camaronal, Playa Grande och Playa Langosta. Snorkla till en ö utanför kusten. Dragkedja genom lokala djungeldakor. Surfa lektioner på hinklistan? Ät ute i närliggande Samara och Carrillo på många fina men avslappnade restauranger. Utforska den omgivande teakplantagen. Det finns en liten zoo i Carrillo och en krokodil att se. I söder kan du njuta av lunch eller golf på Punta Islita, kolla in ara (papegoja) -reservationen vid Ara Project och utforska Camaronal, en nationell fristad för djurliv. Du kommer inte att få slut på saker att göra!

La Paila is hands down the best place we have ever stayed. The view is unmatched. We felt like royalty on top of the mountain. Maria and Grace were so sweet. The maintenance man knocked down coconuts for us and cut them so we cools drink the water out. Andy and Christine were quick to reply to any questions. This place truly is paradise

Our family group (age range 13-80) of 7 had absolutely the best time at La Paila. It was pure paradise and exceeded our expectations in every possible way. Staff were amazing, especially Grace! She was lovely and made us incredible breakfast and dinner daily. She was a real joy to have around and Maria, too. Home was clean and had everything we could possibly need. The bedrooms were very comfortable. We absolutely loved the open air common space, especially the hammock and swimming pool. So many activities for all - Ping pong, backgammon, badminton and volleyball were well utilized. Host communication was very prompt and helpful. We appreciated the connection with the Samara Info Centre that went above and beyond to help us with airport transfers and excursions. This was a trip of a lifetime for us and we hope to return in the future. Renting a car is a must for this location, but well worth it.

We had a great stay in La Paila, it's a very special place. It's not the most modern of properties but that's part of the charm, the location is superb with incredible views, the live-in housekeeper is amazing, great food, so helpful and brilliant at keeping the property tidy and clean. Her food was a big part of the joy of our holiday.

Great place to relax and enjoy Costa Rica

Everything was simply amazing. Rugged beauty everywhere and an abundance of flowers to gaze at on the property. Views are truly special as we could see all of Samara bay from our hilltop. Housekeeper was so nice and helpful, cooking and cleaning for us. We love the proximity to everything in town and got so much packed into our trip because of the convenience with this location. Clean, safe, spectacular.

Second Stay @ La Paila

We first visited La Paila in Feb 2022 with my wife's family. We loved it some much we brought our kids their partners and our grandkids for the 2023 Holidays in lieu of a family christmas We love this place. It is peaceful, relaxing and within a short drive to beautiful beaches, and to the stores and restaurants of both Playa Carilla and Samara. If you are looking for relaxation, this is the place for you.

Wonderful Place to Stay

La Paila is paradise. We so enjoyed our stay. The accommodations were just as advertised and Grace was wonderful in accommodating us and for the wonderful meals that she made for us. We loved the pool, watching the pretty birds, monkeys and THAT VIEW! We never tired of waking up to that view. At night time, you do have to adjust to the living room being open to all sorts of creatures, but by the end of the week, we were used to them and it wasn't a problem. We very much enjoyed our stay and would rent this home again.

Beautiful Views, Perfect Pool, & Amazing Beach

La Paila has gorgeous views and the pool is great for both adults and children! My husband is Costa Rican and I have been visiting Costa Rica for the last 20 years so we've seen a lot of the country. Playa Carrillo is one of the few beaches which has not been developed and is as pristine and beautiful as it was 20 years ago! It is a great beach for couples and families and is never too crowded. If you want to get away from it all, and just rest and relax, La Paila and Playa Carrillo are perfect.

We loved this property and our stay here. In person is way better than on line pics!!

Everything is awesome, and accurate as stated on VRBO. The only complaint's would be the overall cleanliness of the property, and the live in Dog. We loved the Dog, but it seemed that she had not received a proper bath for some time, when she was around you knew it by the smell. There was hair from the dog all over the open area and furniture, and smell of the dog on the furniture. Overall we would stay here again, but would request a cleaner house and clean dog.

Third Stay

This was our third trip to this beautiful, peaceful home. We have stayed in a few other properties in the area, but only because this property was booked. The others were good. They weren't this though. This place is magic. It's incredibly relaxing and welcoming, the beauty and rustic charm just can't be beat. Maury the chef was as always, amazing. She is kind and thoughtful and incredibly helpful. She also happens to be an amazing chef. If we could, this would be our permanent second home and Maury would be family.

Views for days!

You will not disappointed with your stay! Maureen and the views made our experience extra special!! She is an amazing cook, my picky kids ate every bite. We also loved not having to clean every day. She made our trip feel like a vacation. The views from house are unforgettable. The house has four rooms- a master and a bunk room downstairs and two rooms upstairs that share a Jack and jill bathroom. It all worked out well to share with our families. This is our second visit and the first time we had a breeze, this time we were not as lucky. Fans would be a great edition. Thanks for a wonderful week!!! Pura Vida

Thank you Alyssa! Glad your second trip was another great success! (Every guest receives a welcome email saying "If you need anything, just let us know!". Of course, the house has fans. Each of the 4 bedrooms has an a/c (with fan mode) plus a ceiling fan. The main living space has multiple, portable area fans. We even have a dog named 'Brisa' (the breeze) to help out!

Yoga retreat in beautiful mountain Villa

We went as a group of 9 as a yoga retreat. Yoga every morning by the pool with a stunning view of the ocean below was incredible. We couldn't capture the beauty enough with our photos. We loved the open air main area and also having the pool to cool off in after days at the beach and exploring. Sunsets were amazing! We also got to see lots of lizards, howler monkeys right by the house, and beautiful birds. Maury the cook and one who cares for us was very kind and a great cook!! She cooked us amazing local style dinners we asked for and also great breakfasts. It felt healthy and delicious. We loved all the fresh fruit. The beds were very comfortable, and rooms beautiful in traditional I think ranch style. AC in the bedrooms to sleep was so nice since it is very hot here. We love this place and plan to come back. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful villa with us!

Best View!

We stayed at La Paila with 2 families of 4 and the house was a perfect setup. The views from the property are incredible! Take me back! We had a wonderful time listening to the birds, watching the sunsets, swimming in the pool, listening to music and having drinks in the outdoor living space. The property caretaker Maury had dinner prepped for our arrival a cooked a few other meals while we were there and she was an incredible cook. It was such a special treat, we enjoyed her cooking so much, I had to take home one of her recipes. The AC worked great in all the bedrooms which was very nice. And the drive to and from town is easy. We especially enjoyed the beauty of Carillo and Sámara provides anything you could need between restaurants, adventure, shopping etc but also not too big of a town. It’s definitely special here. We had great communication with Andy & Christine prior to our arrival but had no need to reach out while we were there since everything went smooth. Good internet if that is needed. Thank you so much for sharing your slice of Paradise, it was a dream.

Spectacular view from traditional home

Upon arriving at this well-appointed traditional style home we were all mesmerized by the initial impression and the spectacular view overlooking Playa Carrillo. The house had lots of room for 6 adults; one child. There are inside and outside games galore when not just simply relaxing or at the beach. The pool was a hit for the family and was the first place people would go after breakfast. We heard that this beach was the nicest in the area so we were happy to know that. We found several good restaurants in Samara. The food in Samara is very expensive- and even farther towns like Nicoya still had high food prices. At the end of our stay we did find a little butcher shop in Samara just on the left before the main road dead ends into the town. The bakery (where the road actually dead ends ) was very good. 2 Gringos and the El Calibri (steak restaurant) were our favorite. Our trip was enhanced by an engagement proposal under water scuba diving and our turtle excursion through Samara Infocenter! What a wonderful place to experience all from a breathtaking view each morning, a gorgeous sunset each evening, and the brightest stars at night you’ll ever see!

Nice place but needs some TLC

This house has a beautiful view, great location, and the staff is great. The house needs some updating and minor repairs. The bedrooms were a bit dusty. The fridge was consistently leaking water inside and not very cool. The staff cleaned every day and helped with whatever we needed. We had a large group of 11 people. It was unclear for the guests to know where to put the laundry that needed to be washed. However, the staff were willing to do the laundry. The initial portion of the road to the house is paved but then turns into a dusty, rocked road that is pretty rough and steep. 4 wheel drive is not necessary, but it is important to note to the roughness and steep incline. The views from the house are breathtaking. We asked for local dishes for meals and were not disappointed. Grace and Maria kept up with food allergies and made separate meals for the kiddos who were picky eaters. They were very kind and helpful. They cooked meals on our schedule so that we had food early enough for scheduled activities and ready for us when we got home. Brisa was fun to have around and never bothered us once. We loved watching Brisa come around and love on all of us. Grace and Maria helped us learn some spanish which we loved. We would recommend this place again, but would like to see the house have a bit more TLC.

The home is a historic (!) house now built in 1990 by my father. If you're looking for a more sterile place, probably stick to brand new hotels. Or skip Costa Rica. Part of the pleasure of CR is that it is not fully paved over yet: the last mile to the house is one of the best maintained unpaved roads you'll find anywhere. Unfortunately, this guest abused our rental policies and broke furniture; its rare but we've had a few like this that refuse to let us know of any issues while staying and then complain publicly later. We are always available to help and there is full time, year-round staff on the property and nearby always ready to help at any time.

Great House with an Excellent Views and Excellent Staff

Wow! Where do we start? La Paila is incredible! We had never stayed at a "staffed" home and we really enjoyed visiting with Marilu and with the owners Andy and Christine (who live in the USA). They went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable and enjoyed our vacation. Just about every morning, we watched monkeys eating mango's from the tree in the backyard of La Paila. The pool is great and has a great view. Each bedroom has A/C and their are two masters (one upstairs and one downstairs). There are two other bedrooms as well. We let Marilu cook for us for a few dinners and we had a few in town (i.e. Samara). Samara is about 10 mins away. Excellent food. Andy and Christina send a "pre-visit" sheet that helps explains the house and restaurants. Very nice to have!.We spent two afternoons on the beach in Samara at "Gusto Beach". They have "wifi" so the daughter liked that area! La Paila also has "wifi" which was nice. Visiting Costa Rica is a like being in a Jurassic Park movie. La Paila is an "open air" house that is beautifully constructed. If you have a problem with bugs or dont like wearing bug spray, I would not visit Costa Rica. La Paila gives you an opportunity to enjoy Costa Rica as it should be with the added benefit of closing the doors at night and turning on the A/C. All bedroom doors have locks and Marilu watches the home very closely. No problems with security even though it is an open air home. It was about a two hour drive from Liberia airport and I would suggest a 4WD vehicle. There are lots of dirt roads. I jogged every morning on Playa Carrillo. Beautiful! The "Polizicia" got used to seeing me every morning and waved. They even pulled up beside me and asked me if "I was enjoying paradise". My daughter and wife both loved it as well. We really enjoyed read the guest books and the history of La Paila as it was being constructed. Book it! Enjoy La Paila as the Dr. would have loved you too.

Om värden

Värdens profilbild
The owners are a husband and wife...she an architect and he a landscape architect. We manage the house ourselves -- not through third parties -- and make frequent visits to maintain and improve the gardens and house. It is our pride and joy.

Varför värden valde detta boende

The property has been in one family since construction. The site was selected for its panoramic views of the Pacific but also the cooler air and breezes provided thanks to its elevation. La Paila faces directly west for sunset views year round. With virtually no light pollution, the night skies can be spectacular. You can see as many as four bays from the pool terrace but the primary view is of Playa Samara and the town of Samara -- at night Samara's lights glisten gently in the distance.

Tico flavor! The house was designed by a Costa Rican architect in the Spanish hacienda style. Our staff is Tico so you'll be closer to Tico cooking, culture and Spanish language at La Paila. The house is appointed with Costa Rican artifacts and art: Guaitil pottery, colonial sugar-cauldrons, a Sarchi cart, ox yokes, and more.

Families welcome! Small special events by permission. Dogs OK too.
