Beautiful Relaxing Costa Rica Escape
Truly a little piece of heaven. House is beautifully appointed with everything that you need. Set up in the jungle hills but only ~15-20 minutes to town and beaches. Host was super helpful and readily available. Already dreaming about returning!!

Wonderful Home Base for Nosara/Samara
This rental was excellent. The house was fully stocked (coffee filters, milk, fruit, even local coffee), very comfortable with lots of seating, great air conditioning in the bedrooms, wonderful dipping pool on the side of the house, nice porch area (with outdoor ceiling fans) overlooking a small stream, very safe (protected by a driveway gate), modern appliances, and in a great location for exploring Samara (~15 minutes) and Nosara (~40 minutes). There is another house on the property (inside the gate) where the host's father lives, but you cannot see it from the house. And Nuri was a pleasure to communicate with; she was very helpful and made sure everything went smoothly.

They are there to assist in many ways. They are such beautiful people. I met her father who lives in front of house he was very nice also. If ever back in Costa Rica I will stay here again. Thanks again Ms. Nury for everything. Pura Vida!!!

Beautiful home
A beautiful jungle setting, back from the road, fantastic property with privacy and a pool. The house was well furnished and we lacked for nothing while we were there. Bring groceries (and some fresh fish from town) and grill a lovely dinner on the deck. During the day, the place feels like a bird sanctuary and we enjoyed watching a Toucan go in and out of a rounded hole in the large tree behind the house to feed its chicks. We felt comfortable and at home during our stay. Internet was slow at times, spotty at others. Oh well, Pura Vida!

If you want privacy and isolation in a gorgeous home and setting, but close to fabulous beaches and amenities then this is the place for you! I noticed myself on multiple occasions feeling more relaxed then I have in a long time. It was as though we all pressed the pause button and embraced it.

What a great spot Nury and her family are offering here.. We stayed for a week in January of 2024 and absolutely loved this place. It was clean and just as beautiful as all of the pictures portray. Very private, but yet felt very safe as well. You need a rental car as it is about a 10 min drive into town. I would not hesitate to book there again. Thank you Nury ! Pure Vida

Wonderful place to be in CR
This was one of the most tranquil places we went on our trip, and is just as nice (or nicer!) as the pictures make it look online. It was great to be in the middle of the jungle with all the flora, fauna, jungle sounds/animals, yet only 12 minutes away from the beach and stores/restaurants. The hosts/owners communicated well, were very kind, and the house/kitchen was very well stocked for cooking. We saw monkeys, leafcutter ants, horses, butterflies, and others from the porch and pool. The beds were comfortable. It was a great place to have in the middle of our trip, and Carillo was a beautiful beach to explore from here for day trips. Great spot!!

Nury is an amazing host. She kept in touch with us the entire time. If we had any questions and/concerns she was quick to respond. The house was beautiful. We saw monkeys, toucans, iguanas, and a bunch more animals while staying there. We got to fully immerse ourselves within the Costa Rican habitat. Could wake up have a cup of coffee and sit outside and enjoy the beautiful sounds of nature. What an experience! Thanks for everything Nury!

Beautiful & tranquil ... a perfect stay!
There are a lot of reviews describing the place so I won’t repeat other than to say I agree with them… the place is as you see in the pictures, beautiful. One minor thing I will add is the safe deposit box; it’s big so you can put your laptops in it. We have a business and had to bring our laptops so that was important to us. The property has a security fence and it’s quite a way off the road so it’s very safe, we didn’t see anyone on the property the whole 3 weeks we were there, but always good to have a safe place to stash passports and important items. Other people have mentioned this as well but worth repeating, Nury and Daniel were on top of it. Anything we needed, any advice as to what to do or where to eat they were on it. I can’t add anything to the other reviews… they’re all 5 stars for a reason. Two awesome restaurants we liked were Villa Bosque Restaurant in Playa Carrillo and Sabor de la Montana in Nosara.

If Nury’s place is available, do yourself a favour and book it! For people who enjoy a home that is well thought out down to every detail, you will be in heaven. Cooking is easy, visiting is comfortable and all of it comes with amazing views. For those looking for a home away that has it all, you found it. The beds are a dream (pun intended), plenty of linens, and extra amenities you haven’t even thought of. Even the seating itself is above and beyond, comfortable and supportive. The coffee and fruit already stocked is the tip of the iceberg, plenty of seasonings, sugar, oil, etc. in the pantry. If you’re lucky enough to book it during rainy season, the evening rain showers are perfect to enjoy for night owls or soothing like a lullaby. Samara is a quick 10 min drive one way and Nosara an easy 25 min drive the other. We were conscious of staying in the forest and the bugs that go with it. We asked Nury for some raid and that worked to control the bugs for us Canadians who are not used to them. The internet didn’t work while we were there. Nury is planning on fixing that for good, but I would say, do yourself a favour and ask her not to. The four days of peace and quiet was absolutely amazing and completely unheard of in todays world. Spend that time in the pool, it’s beautifully manicured and well maintained. Speaking of Nury, i hope it’s obvious she was very helpful and communicative during our stay! On second thought, please don’t book this… I’d like to come back. Pura Vida.

Wonderful accommodation
This is a beautiful open concept place to stay with the family. The property itself is very peaceful and quite and not too far from Samara beach, restaurants and supermarkets. The only thing which we did not pay attention to and the property owner mentioned in the amenities section of the property was the WiFi. We had a Verizon international plan as well as the local Liberty cellphone service plan, but both were useless as there was no signal, and as the property owner rightly mentioned, the WiFi is only good for texting but only sometimes as most times it would say "No internet connection". But it is a beautiful property and would definitely recommend it and if gotten a chance, would stay there again.
