Perched along the coastal ridge hills, our 3.5 acre property overlooks a lush jungle below and the ocean 900 meters to the west. Enjoy phenomenal sunsets in our large teak and thatch palapa, a gathering point for family meals, with a chef’s kitchen, a harvest table for 12+, full bathroom, and generous living room overlooking the infinity pool, surrounded by hibiscus,&nbsp;bougainvillea, and fruit trees. Upstairs is an air conditioned master suite bedroom + bathroom with an extra daybed, desks and closets.
Across the landscaped courtyard sits the original Tico whitewash concrete and teak home, lovingly restored, with full kitchen, living room, 2 air conditioned king bedrooms with closets and desks, and a shard full bathroom. 
Adjacent to the courtyard and between the Palapa and white house there is a 34 ft infinity pool and sun patio, with a shallow water&nbsp;section for children, a sitting shelf, and a deeper full length swim lane.
To the South of the white house down a path, we have our 2 bdrm / 2bathroom&nbsp;jungle house, a modern air conditioned home with 2 full master suites, kitchen and living room with a full length balcony overlooking the jungle ravine and creek.   The property holds many fruit trees (mango, lime, papaya, bananas, coconut, an herb garden and, charcoal BBQ), a creek ravine, where monkeys and birds announce the 6 am sunrise.
All rooms have a digital safe for storing passports and valuables. The groundskeeper Mateo lives in a home by the gate, and our property manager Tania lives 150 meters down the road to help with anything you may require. Cleaners typically come twice a week but can be adapted to your needs.  
The driveway has a gate and parking for 5 vehicles.

The Big Palapa - Santa Teresa, Hermosa beach

The Big Palapa was a treat for our family of 5 last winter. We spent two weeks visiting the beach and tide pools, mornings in the pool, breakfast and dinner in this giant thatched palapa. The sunsets were out of this world from the dinning room, and quiet evenings led to early bedtimes and mornings with the monkeys passing by through threes. The internet worked well, AC was used occasionally. The neighbours were super friendly and helpful. A fisherman passed by on Fridays to sell fresh tuna, red snapper and shrimp, and the fresh fruit and herbs from the property itself were a bonus! We're already planning our return.
