About this property

Surf Shack- Set in Jungle, Walk 2 Beach, WiFi, & Back-Up Power in Outages

The house is set in the lush jungle and is just a 5-minute walk to the beach and its miles of uninhabited shoreline.....

This Independent, two-bedroom duplex has a gated entrance and covered patio/deck at the entrance of the house with a seating area that looks out on the jungle and lovely tropical gardens...

The house has two bedrooms (both with Air Conditioning; one with a King bed, one with a double bed) and a full bath on the upper level, and on the lower level, an open plan living room, dining room, full kitchen, and outdoor veranda area. There is also a laundry room in the house with a washer and dryer.

We have the best Internet Service in the area--a satellite network, so even if there is a power outage in the area, you can stay connected. This is also the only rental property in the area with an advanced whole-house backup power system* that (if you opt-in and agree to pay the fuel charges) comes on automatically when the power goes out to keep everything running ( lights, internet, kitchen, even AC) allowing for zero down time—an amazing benefit in a part of Costa Rica that often has daily power outages. (No frustrating nights of not being able to cook or send emails or wondering if all your food will spoil—you can surf the web while streaming music and drinking a nice cold iced tea!)
(*if interested in the backup power system, ask for details.)

Visitors are stunned by the natural beauty and sightings of the jungle wildlife on the property (like monkeys and toucans) and the close proximity to the ocean--about a 200-meter walk from the house.

SERVICES:
-There is an alarm system.
-Cleaning service 2-3 times per week.
-The house has a Satellite Network that works even in blackouts
-Advanced whole-house backup power system (*ask for details)
-There is a security camera at the entrance as well as an alarm system in the house
-The house has a washer and dryer for guests to use.
-House cleaners come 2-3 times per week

Guest House a Good Adjunct to Main for our Large Family

We rented this Guest House to create extra space for our multi-generational family reunion, and we, the Grandparents, stayed here, while the rest of the family stayed in the nearby Main House. The kitchen of the Guest House was well equipped, but we actually did all family cooking at the Main House. Both the Property Manager Kate and the House Manager were helpful in getting us set up in this house. Our only challenge was the intense heat of March. Otherwise we would highly recommend this house, especially if renting the Main House. Very important to have one's own transportation to get around, especially into the small town of Pavones.
Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2024

Why they chose this property

Because once you find paradise.... you want to come back. The beach is just a five-minute walk away, and the sounds and sightings of wildlife, are intoxicating.
