An absolute dream!

From the location of the property, to the hosts, to the wildlife and views- we couldn't have asked for a more perfect experience. Michelle and David went above and beyond to ensure our stay was an absolute dream. Close to the beach but a full jungle experience. This property is breath taking and we cannot wait to come back.

Cannot say enough about this property as it has a fantastic view of the ocean and forest. We ventured out daily to take various tours and always looked forward to returning mid afternoon to enjoy the pool and lounge area. David and Michelle were exceptional hosts and we enjoyed spending time with them. Would not hesitate to stay here again!

A Slice of Paradise

What a beautiful and relaxing place to stay! And David & Michelle are wonderful. They were helpful in every way. What a privilege it was to get to know them and for them to share their amazing property with us. We so enjoyed the unbeatable views while relaxing in the infinity pool, being entertained by the monkeys, watching the scarlet macaws and toucans fly in & out, the massages that Michelle lined up for us and just the overall peacefulness we felt while being there.

If you are looking for a slice of heaven than this is the place

The pictures that are on the VRBO website are completely accurate. We were greeted with such friendliness by both Michelle and David and that care lasted for our entire stay. The views from the pool are incredible…we spent many hours in the pool enjoying those views of the Pacific as well as enjoying all the wildlife. The unit is very well laid out f with a fully equipped kitchen as well as a bbq…which we used most nights. We took a taxi fro SHo airport right to our home in the sky, but rented a car in Jaco for a few days of sightseeing etc. if you are renting a car we strongly suggest 4wd as the drive up the mountain can be a bit challenging.Anyone who rents this unit will not be disappointed

This is a beautiful home located on a mountain top overlooking the Pacific Ocean. The view is gorgeous and it has a wonderful infinity pool. While relaxing in the pool or just sitting enjoying the scenery you will see toucans, buzzards, Macaw’s, Cara Cara Eagles and white face capuchin monkeys. It was just so beautiful and relaxing we didn’t want to leave. The hosts Michelle and David were so gracious and helpful with anything we needed. I highly recommend this place. We will definitely return.

Christmas in Jaco

Michelle was proactive with us and helped us so much along the way, and answered our many questions giving advice about things to do, places to eat, massage recommendations, and so much more! David and Michelle’s home was wonderful and so peaceful and just what our busy lives needed, where we had tranquility, a beautiful view, could see wildlife, and so much more. We enjoyed our stay so much and if we ever came again to Costa Rica we would stay there again! They are wonderful hosts and their home does not disappoint. We loved our Christmas in this amazing country.

Incredible views

The property is absolutely gorgeous, the hosts are wonderful. It was a bit difficult to get to and I would highly recommend a 4x4. The views for sure made it worth it. One of our the air conditioners did not work and a repair man was unable to come out, but the hosts did everything in their power to ensure our comfort. Overall a good experience, we would go back to visit for sure.

What an amazing spot in the world and the hosts, Michelle and David, were beyond gracious and accommodating! We loved every minute of our stay and enjoyed all that came with it. Emerson, a local chef, was recommended by Michelle and what a find he was. He was so good we ended up having him for another night. The whole stay was so so delightful that we booked another stay for next year! Thank you Michelle and David for sharing your joy with us! Cathy, Dave, Nancy and Lisa

We came to Jaco to check out the town as a potential place to live. Little did we know, we would meet such wonderful hotsts, David and Michelle! Their house and accommodations are just wonderful. The beds are super comfy, you have all the necessities if you chose not to leave the property, its truly hard to leave. David and Michelle are worth their weight in gold as far as kindness and information go. We have made friends for life. The view cant be beat, as well as all the forest animals and birds.

My new favorite place on planet earth!

We were initially concerned about privacy with the owners living onsite. First, they are 2 of the nicest most welcoming people I have ever met in my life. They gave us total privacy. I actually regret not making time for a glass of wine or cocktail with them in the evening. Next time! (We booked 2 weeks next year!). The pool and view cannot be beat. This setup was perfect for us!
