Amazing experience in the rain forest!

This property is truly a gem nestled in the rain forest and was a serene experience. You literally have the jungle to yourself. Deborah was great and made sure we had what we needed for our stay. Jose was also amazing and gave us a guided tour of the property and we swam in the waterfall. If you want privacy and an authentic rain forest experience, this is it. I'd love to go back and spend more time there exploring and taking it all in.

Amazing stay with incredibly helpful hosts

We love to hike and this place has great trails and hikes. The nearby river is gorgeous and the trees and flowers are spectacular. Jose’s night hike was a lot of fun for the whole family. We’ve rented a hundred vacation homes and Pete and Deborah were the most communicative and helpful of any place we’ve stayed. The house is beautiful and clean. It can get a little hot at night in the rooms but they supply lots of fans which work well. We loved everything about our stay..

Wonderful Stay in the Rainforest

I’m still blown away by the beauty of the property! After experiencing the busyness of the beach area, this more remote location was definitely our preference. There are beautiful hikes on the property, and the bonus was the waterfall/swimming hole. We enjoyed an evening hike with Jose who knew so much about the plants and animals native to Costa Rica. Our tour with Jose was a highlight! It is a good 15-20 minute drive on rough terrain but well worth the views from the house. And Deborah was so incredibly helpful with planning excursions.She made that entire process very easy.

The Best

The hosts were very friendly and very accommodating. They were always available to answer questions, or offer suggestions for activities in the area. The house is large and open, surrounded by acres of rainforest beauty. We were treated to a guided walk-around tour of the area. Our guide, Jose, was great. The house was filled with exotic flower arrangements from the property. We highly recommend this VRBO house and hosts. They made our first visit to Costa Rica amazing and memorable.

Great place to stay, went with a group of friends, Debra was an excellent host, very accommodating and hospitable, she helped us book several excursions and made sure we got there on time, it does take about 25 minutes to drive to town but has cool scenic views on the way, house and property are nice, would certainly recommend this place over some boring hotel

Wonderful Quiet Retreat

Our only regret is not having enough time to thoroughly enjoy the grounds and waterfalls. We were here for two nights, and I wish we had longer. It was a peaceful home that brought the outdoors inside, and Deborah was an amazing host. We will def be back the next time we are in Costa Rica :)

Wonderful Rainforest Experience

Our three night stay at this private retreat was a wonderful introduction to Costa Rica. Even before we arrived, the hosts were very communicative and offered to coordinate an array of activities to enhance our trip, including a dinner made on site by a local chef and a fantastic ziplining adventure. By the time we arrived, it felt like we already knew Peter and Deborah. The well-equipped, spacious home is situated in the midst of the rainforest and offers lovely views and sounds of the jungle from every angle including two large balconies off the upper bedrooms. Our family of seven adults had plenty of room to spread out and enjoy every corner of this lovely home that was kindly filled with tropical flower arrangements from the property's gardens. We enjoyed both a night tour of the rain forest and a morning tour of the spectacular property (two very different experiences) that culminated in a swim at the beautiful waterfall. Our guide, Jose, was fantastic and taught us so much about the rainforest. We were also free to explore the property and visit the waterfall on our own. We were so happy to have this authentic rainforest experience and hope to one day return.

Jungle Oasis

I can't say enough amazing things about this place! Pete and Deb become friends and make your experience (not just a stay) as seemless as possible. We stayed a few different places in the week we were in CR and nothing topped this. The home is open and beautiful, the property is breathtaking, and the time the hosts took to make our memories unforgettable, is so rare and appreciated.

Wonderful experience

Fantastic property! The host is fantastic! They organized many activities for our family. They also were in contact almost every day to help out and answer questions. The on property waterfall was a hit with the kids and we went there several times. We saw tons of wildlife just outside, monkeys, frogs, birds, even wild horses!

Rainforest Retreat

This was the perfect place for our family. We wish we could have stayed and enjoyed the property longer. Our host was fantastic and attentive. Her employees were the best. We loved the hikes we did on the property and the swim in the waterfall. We also did a night tour with Jose' and had a great time seeing all the critters. (My daughter is a biology major so she could have explored this property for many more days.) It is a rustic feel in the middle of the rainforest which is what we wanted. We highly recommend it for those wanting to stay IN the rainforest.

Incredible, Breathtaking, Spectacular Stay

First of all, the host will literally do anything for you to help make your stay amazing! Very communicative. Her grounds keeper Jose, of this 230 acre dream gave us a three hour tour which we recommend. This was our first time to Costa Rica and this beautiful place should be a place you should consider. Very remote. We rented a truck w/ 4 wheel drive. Something you would feel more comfortable making the trek on the stunning switchback dirt roads. The jaw-dropping hike to the water fall is something we will never forget! So many wondrous sounds off in the jungle and right outside your door! Hummingbirds everywhere, butterflies, and so many creatures…it will amaze you! There’s everything you need there to cook. Make sure to get the Lozano Salsa Sauce- so delicious! Don’t pass this gem up! You’ll take the most stunning pictures There!

Adventure

It was an adventure to stay in the jungle. We loved having a private river to hike 1/2 mile to anytime we wanted. Host Debra and Jose the guide were great and helped us book any excursions we needed. The falls were not going while we were there due to summer dry season. Home can get warm in the really hot humid days and some bugs in the home but nothing not expected staying in the jungle. We loved the privacy of the place! The whole family had a good time.

Get away from it all

If you want to get away from it all - this is your place! This home allows you to connect with nature with an open air concept. It is nestled up in the rainforest about a 40 minute drive from Quepos on an unpaved road (recommend a 4WD). The owners are absolutely gracious and provided fresh fruit and eggs. The highlight of the trip was the nature walk and swim at the private waterfall!

The place was so awesome ! In the middle of the thickest rain forest jungle. Big time privacy. Waterfalls and swimming holes on the property. Debra ( the owner) was so much help in arranging our excursions and shuttles. And José, the handyman and nature guru, was amazing on our tours. If sitting at resorts drinking all day by the pool is your thing, this is not for you. But if you love nature and adventure , I recommend it highly.

Was great!

We enjoyed our stay very much! The hosts were great at helping book the extra activities that we did. They went above and beyond to help us. Even when I made a mistake on my own, they verified that we would be OK anyway. A 4-wheel drive vehicle was recommended and definitely made the drive out to the property easier, but was not required. There was a panaderia right off the road on the way there. Highly recommend stopping there to get some delicious treats. The meat-stuffed breads were top-notch.
