IMPORTANT THINGS TO NOTE ABOUT CASA OOLIBKA.

Due to the design of the home, the windows and glass doors are not sealed meaning there are gaps to allow air flow. As a result, it is easy for insects to enter the home, so please expect this during your stay. One hour of daily housekeeping is included to help manage this inconvenience. Note, that not all ceiling fans function. Our team will walk through how to activate those that do. We are working to repair or replace the fans that are not functioning; however, this may not be done prior to your stay. The home is fumigated two times every year to help manage ants and other insects as best as possible. To help with a smoother arrival process, a member of our team will meet you at the property for an in-person check-in. If your arrival will be after 8pm, we will coordinate with you for a remote check-in and then meet with you the morning after your arrival to answer any questions you have.

LOCAL QUIRKS - IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THIS AREA OF COSTA RICA
While the infrastructure in Costa Rica is improving, it is highly likely that you will experience dust, bugs, mold, power, water and internet outages at some point during your stay. We consider it part of the fun of experiencing another country and culture. All of these issues are beyond the control of the homeowner and the management company and may come without advance notice. If having internet access is imperative during your visit, we recommend you research internet data plans available to you through your cellular provider. The Playa Guiones, Playa Pelada and surrounding areas of Nosara are rapidly growing communities. As such, much of the area will have noise from construction typically between the hours of 6am and 5pm. We do our best to update our properties impacted by construction, however, we are not always provided advance notice of a project. The septic system in the Nosara area does not permit flushing of toilet paper with few exceptions. If you have any questions at all, please contact us in advance of booking your stay as refunds and concessions will not be given for any of the reasons above as they are beyond the control of the homeowner and property manager. Thank you and we look forward to helping you step back in time, relax and enjoy the Pura Vida of Costa Rica.
