Description from the owner

This property is a gorgeous, new, contemporary addition to Santa Teresa designed to be eco-friendly while also giving you all of the comforts of home. The large sliding doors and windows lining the walls of both stories make use of the ocean views and breezes and make you feel like you are nestled within the surrounding trees and flowering plants. This home was built in 2009 with an attention to detail to make your stay as comfortable as a 5 star hotel. The entire house and cabina are situated facing the West/Ocean, giving you views from every room of the many local trees and foliage, with glimpses of the glassy ocean crashing in the distance.... Both levels have large patios and covered balconies allowing you to take full advantage of the indoor/outdoor spaces. We have screens on all doors and windows, and ceiling fans throughout the house (even in the large bathrooms) and over the patios outside to make your lounging times pleasant, even long after the sun goes down on those warm Costa Rican days.

This property is located 100 meters from Santa Teresa beach with only a grove of Pochote Trees standing between you and the white sand beaches, incredible surf, and tide pools. Heading out the other direction on the beach access road and bordering the rear of the property, you find yourself along the main road in town, full of superb restaurants, fresh fruit and fish markets, shopping and nightlife. Just a few yards down the road are numerous cafes and restaurants offering superb meals and service.

This property works in a number of ways to accommodate your stay. There is the two bedroom, two bath house which sleeps up to 5 people comfortably. The house can be rented alone or along with the separate, free standing, pool-side Cabina on the property, which sleeps 2.

In the main house, the two oversized bedrooms are separated for privacy and each offer king sized beds with highest thread count bedding, as well as separate seating areas, treetop and partial ocean views. Both rooms are similarly large in size, face the ocean, and sliding glass doors lead out to the oversized covered balcony stretching the full length of the upstairs. Sit and enjoy your morning coffee, or in the evenings enjoy the ocean breezes while watching the rain fall and spectacular lightning shows. The second bedroom also boasts an additional daybed/seating area which can convert to a full size bed for an additional guest. Both bedrooms have AC as well as ceiling fans and screens on all windows and doors.

Downstairs, the open floor plan of the kitchen, sunken living room and large outdoor patio area blur the lines between an enjoyable outdoor and indoor living experience. There are ceiling fans throughout the entire living space as well as over the outdoor dining tables. Again, all doors and windows are screened for your after dusk comfort as well, and to take advantage of the naturally cooling ocean breezes. The kitchen is fully equipped with all new top of the line appliances, including a chef's stove/oven. If your interest is simply in blending the margaritas, we can arrange for you to have a local private chef come to prepare you a scrumptious feast for your enjoyment outside under the stars. The sunken living room boasts a built in, oversized couch with loads of comfortable pillows to lounge on and read your favorite book, listen to music, take a nap away from the sun, or sit and watch the surroundings.

The free standing Cabina offers comfortable accommodations for rent on its own or as a supplement to the house. Overlooking the pool area and with partial ocean views, you will find a comfortable king sized bed, AC unit, ceiling fans, private closet and safe, kitchenette, large full bathroom, and separate patio.

The beauty of this property stretches from the indoors-out. The pool is the gem of the outdoor area. Large enough to swim laps, dive, play, float or simply lounge in large, umbrella covered, shallow seating area, this pool offers a fantastic relief from the heat. It is surrounded by trees and tropical plants, as well as an outdoor seating area

We are also available to assist you with recommendations on local restaurants, baby sitting, surfboard rentals and/or lessons, canopy tours, airport transportation/transfers, local flights, car rentals or tours, fishing excursions, massages/spa treatments, yoga, pilates or anything else you can think of!

In response to the water issues in the area, this property was built around an eco-conscious rainwater usage system. This means that all of the water used in the house is primarily stored rainwater or well water that is then filtered and reused in the irrigation of our landscaping.

  Exactly what we wanted

  Left on 03/23/2011 for a stay in November 2010
  
  

  This house is amazing. The only thing you'll regret when you arrive, is not booking it for longer. Beautiful, home, gorgeous yard and pool. Super close to beach and everything town has to offer. Awesome beds. Loved that they had screens on all the windows so we could open at night. Really appreciated the cold beer in fridge when I arrived and helpful, friendly property manager. Can't wait to go again and stay longer next time.

  we rented the house and bungelow for a week in March 2010.
  
  House was nice, clean, well located, just a few minutes walk to hte beach. You can walk the main street to Mal Pais. I would rent it again. Just make sure they hit the pool with some clorine. Owners were good to deal with. They had and may still have a local representitive who meets you upon arrival.
  
  Good spot. My family enjoyed it.

• Hello Costa Rica!

  Lovely House by the beach

  Left on 04/07/2010 for a stay in October 2009
  
  

  The house is beautiful, modern, and tastefully decorated. I remember the
  mattresses and linens were very nice. The pool is beautiful, if a little on the
  small side, and the location, a short walk to all the best restaurants is great. It
  is a one minute walk down the road to the beach, which is visible from the 2nd
  story (where the bedrooms are located.) We had a delightful breakfast every
  morning at the french bakery/cappuccino place on the main road- about a ten
  minute walk into town. The house is right off the main road, so opening the
  windows on the "road" side of the house can be noisy, but we just opened the
  windows on the other side and it was great. Highly recommend staying there.
  We will be back.
