Trails have been built throughout the property that lead through the rainforest where guests can dip in the rivers and pools and admire the waterfalls on the property.

Dream vacation house!

This place was absolutely spectacular. The views are absolutely stunning, and as other reviewers have mentioned, the photos just don't do them justice. The home is pleasantly secluded, and surrounded by wildlife - we saw lots of lizards, many different birds (including a toucan!) and butterflies, and some frogs on our hike on the property's trail (which was a bit slippery and steep for our 64 year old relatives - wear sturdy shoes!). Kenny, the caretaker, was unbelievable. So responsive to any question, so friendly, came by a few times to check on things but in a very unintrusive way, and had loads of recommendations about the area. He made the vacation spectacular. The home is fabulous - a little river runs through the main living area into the pool! So cool! The pool was plenty big for 5 of us to enjoy and to play with our daughter. The kitchen was well-equipped and laundry machines worked well.The bedrooms were very comfortable at night with the heat pumps. The owner was very responsive and helpful, great to work with, and had lots of local recommendations. She helped to arrange a private chef for one of the evenings which was a very enjoyable meal. The owner recommended a 4x4 vehicle to get up the driveway (1.5km) and we are glad we took her advice - the road is quite steep and would be very slippery if there had been rain!We are already thinking about a return trip to this place - it was an absolute paradise!

Great Views

Just as advertised. You definitely need 4 wheel drive after a good shower. Opening the sliding glass doors and just using the screen doors allowed for a good breeze. Views are nothing short of outstanding. Keni was very helpful. Would definitely rent again.

This property had all the amenities you would need. Although it's in the mountains it still gets very hot. There is no AC on the ground floor however, if you open all the sliding doors there's a nice cross breeze. The owner and property manager were very accommodating!! The home is stunning and very modern with stellar views of the mountains. Make sure you have a 4x4.

House with fabulous views!

House with fabulous views! We have stayed in Costa Rica a number of times and this house had the best views by far! Toucans came to visit us a number of times. And on our hike to the waterfall on the property we saw a troop of squirrel monkeys! Lots of outdoor seating to enjoy the beautiful views and infinity pool. We swam every day! Close proximity to both Manuel Antonio, Dominical, and zip lining up in Jaco. Caretaker, Kenny, can assist you with popular local excursions and restaurants as well as any house maintenance concerns. I would book here again for the peace and serenity this property will give you!

Wonderful landscapes with view of the ocean and mountains. Loved it!

This huge house is surrounded by beautiful 360 degree landscapes. We see the mountains to the east, west and north and the plain and the Pacific Ocean to the south. The pictures don't do it justice and we were left speechless when we arrived. The pool is large, comfortable and always very clean thanks to Kenny's good care. It was hot in February and the pool was very refreshing. The house is very well equipped (soaps, aluminum foil, cellophane, grocery bags, oil, spices, etc…). There are several towels, both for the bathroom and for the swimming pool. The Wi-Fi works very well and we were able to communicate with our families via video Messenger. There is a propane BBQ, which we used almost every day. There are 8 deck chairs. The bedrooms have a balcony with a view of the ocean and the magnificent sunsets. The mattresses are very comfortable and the master bedroom has its own bathroom while the other 2 bedrooms share the second bathroom. There is also a .5 bathroom on the main floor. This property is very quiet because it is located more than a kilometre from the nearest neighbor. Better to have a 4x4 dependingmon the season. Cleaning is done once a week by a dedicated and efficient team. We observed toucans, coati, hummingbirds, iguanas, toads and other local wildlife almost every day. There is a hiking trail on the property that leads to a creek with small waterfalls. We were there in February (dry season) so I can imagine the beauty in the rainy season. The trail will not be easy for non-athletic people but accessible if you make the effort. There are bamboo sticks for hiking. You will find grocery stores with everything you want 25-30 minutes away (BM and Maxi Pali in Quepos and another Maxi Pali in Parrita). We personally enjoyed the BM in Quepos. There are also 2 convenience stores in the small village down the road (5-7 minutes). The beaches (many) are 25-40 minutes. Our favorites: Bejuco and Palo Seco for long walks and Espadilla for swimming. There is a beautiful nature reserve 8 minutes away (Rainmaker) with suspension bridge, waterfalls and natural swimming pool. Maggy, the owner was easy to reach and responded quickly. Kenny, manager in CR is great and always available (Thank you!!!).

About the host

As I moved into the next phase of my life, I wanted to invest in properties that move me and that my children can enjoy long after me. I recently purchased this property, so there are no or few reviews. Because the property manager is staying on with me and will be managing your day-to-day questions/requests, your experience should be excellent as the previous owner's reviews showed! Upon request, the previous owner will allow me to show the older reviews should you like to see them. Communication: I will respond to your questions and requests as quickly as possible, so please don't hesitate to contact me. During your stay the property manager will attend to any of your needs regarding the property and amenities. He is a wealth of information! Pura Vida!

Why they chose this property

Rio Seco Estate (also known as Eden Estate) captured my heart from the moment I saw it. Costa Rica has so much to offer everyone and so does Rio Seco Estate (Eden Estate). Enjoy the luxury of a well-tended estate with many amenities nearby. The views from the estate are spectacular, both the ocean and the rainforest. There's not a single place in the house where one cannot see the beauty surrounding it. The two hiking trails leading down to the rivers on the property are full of wildlife and beautiful jungle scenery.

What makes this property unique

The property manager, Kenny, is fantastic. He agreed to stay on when I bought the property. His entire family has lived in this area for generations and his knowledge of this area is vast.

There are many beaches all along the coastal highway, which is just minutes from the estate. Rainmaker Preserve (MUST SEE) is just 1.5 km up the road. Manuel Antonio Park is just 25 minutes away and has great tours and a huge variety of wild life to see (monkeys, sloths, exotic birds...). Dominical, where the rainforest meets the ocean, is just under an hour south and is a fantastic beach town. Uvita, just south of Dominical, is a haven for whale watching. There are too many activities to mention them all: Zip lining, river rafting, ecotourism, fantastic restaurants, waterfall tours, snorkeling, fishing scuba diving... just to name a few.

Enjoy the Central Pacific region, one of the best places to stay in Costa Rica!
