3 Bedroom House in Ciudad Cortes

Modern house in an ideal setting situated 300m above the sea with magnificent views of the ocean and the jungle. Enjoy a nice sea-breeze while you see birds and wild life from a beautiful swimming pool at the edge of the terrace. There are 2 big waterfalls in the property. There is a path from the house which takes you through the rain forest to the river and in 20 min you will be swiming below 2 waterfalls in an idealic setting.
The house has a large terrace for BBQ, dinning and a relaxing pool. The kitchen has modern appliances and all what you need for your vacation . The house is an open plan concept with high ceilings, fans, a good size kitchen island for meals and a big screen TV in the living room. There are three bedrooms . The master bedroom has an ensuite bathroom with a shower and a bathtub. The 2 guest bedrooms are in a separate wing and they share a second full bathroom. All 3 beds are Queen size with trundle beds in each bedroom for extra guests. There is also high speed internet and you can watch Netflix. There is a laundry room wih washer and dryer and a double garage.
To get to the property you will need a 4x4 vehicle since the terraine is steep 3km before arriving. It is a 3.5hs drive South from SJO. You will go from sea level to 360m in 6 km, but once you get there you will feel like you are in paradise. You will be waking up early to the sound of howler monkeys and birds. You can explore the jungle, go for walks or simply relax. I suggest to buy your groceries in Uvita before going up the mountain.
The area has a lot to offer from adventure tourism like zip-lining, river rafting and nature hikes to horse backridding, waterfalls and beautiful beaches all of which are within a short distance. There are numerous restaurants in the area, by the coast or in Ojochal (8kms). You are also close to Corcovado National Park and several other tourist attractions including mangrove tours.

Summary: We had the privilege of admiring an exceptional panoramic view of the mountains, the lush vegetation, and the sea. The house is perfectly positioned to witness breathtaking sunsets. Walter is a friendly and dynamic man. He took good care of us. The garden around the house is meticulously maintained and composed of multiple potted plants and flowers. What an incredible experience to be immersed in such pure nature with the sounds of insects, birds, and monkeys in concert. The trail leading to the waterfall is an incredible asset to this property. This private path invites you to take a stroll through an unspoiled forest. There are guardrails that secure the steeper part. We loved eating on the outdoor patio and rocking on the typical Costa Rican chairs during aperitifs. It is a house where life is good. Adolf, the owner, was very concerned about our well-being during our stay. He allowed us to live a unique experience on a Pacific island. A one-day package with a warm couple. They came to pick us up by boat. They fished and then prepared a fish for us. They baked the dish in a pottery oven. It was delicious! A fantastic organic experience! We picked coconuts, ate melons and tasted coconut hearts. We spent a lot of time swimming on this award-winning beach worthy of a postcard. We also really enjoyed the restaurant at Citrus. What a memorable gastronomic experience! We have rented several villas in Costa Rica and this villa is among our top favorites!

Summary: This home is gorgeous! The grounds are incredible, the views are stunning. We had daily visits from toucans and other beautiful birds and butterflies. We heard the monkeys but never saw them. One morning a pizote ran through the backyard. Walter and Adolf were super helpful with anything we needed while we were there. We asked Adolf about an excursion that was a bit off the beaten path. He fully delivered with an excursion that could not have been further from tourists! This was a truly rural experience with a friend of his named Rim, who met us at the end of one of the rivers in his boat, took us to his home on the beach island of Playa Garza where him and his wife cooked us lunch, showed us around the island a bit and basically left us to explore the island and beautiful beach alone. Rim even gave me a whole fresh red snapper he had caught to take with me back to our home Fair warning, this excursion was great, but it was waaaayyyy off the beaten path so truly for those looking for a bit of an adventure. Everything else was as mentioned by others. 4WD is a must. The road up to the house is long, windy and up and down some pretty serious hills. I recommend video recording the way up and down the first time on your phone just in case. All in all an absolute amazing experience!

Summary: The property was even better than what the pictures show! The house, the grounds, the hike down to the waterfall, the patio, the pool all a 10 rating! The views were breathtaking. It was lovely seclusion with many birds and Howler monkeys heard in the distance. When we arrived we were shown the road and followed up the hill to the house. Once you’ve seen it and driven it once, it was no problem at all with 4 wheel drive. Both my husband and I drove it and it was actually a fun and scenic road to the house. Highly recommend this house!

Summary: We had a little taste of Paradise while living at Villa Cascada. If you love nature, it is the place to stay. We woke up almost every morning to the sounds of the howler monkeys, we even saw them in a nearby tree. You are surrounded by the jungle and all its sounds and aromas. We saw lots of toucans, butterflies, birds, bats, coatis. The views are amazing. The road to the villa was scary the first time, but David waited for us on the main road and led us to the villa. You definitely need a 4x4, with high clearance. Afterwards, we enjoyed the road every time. David is amazing, he is there to help you with everything. Walter, too. They made reservations for us with some great tours, we are happy we went with their recommendations. If you want to live in the jungle, very privately but with all the amenities, this is the place. Thank you from our hearts, Dr. Hamman, David and Walter! Pura Vida!

Summary: We have had the pleasure of spending over 10 weeks at this home over the last two years. We travelled extensively and stayed in many vacation rentals and this one will always have our heart. Waking up to this view is best start a day, watching the sunsets never gets old. No photo will ever do this view justice. We have looked at several properties in and area and few have a view like this home. The home is stocked with everything you could ever need, air fryer, crockpot, panini maker, blender etc. Yes the drive is an adventure and the first time you do it you think its a bit crazy but its really not once you know what to expect. Any home with this view will have a similar drive, its a very common drive for this area. Waterfalls on the property is beautiful but it is a trek getting back up. Toucans, acaris, green parrots and other smaller birds can be seen. We have seen monkeys on occasion and a coati. Tons of interesting bugs, grasshoppers, gekkos, moths and butterflies can be seen. Book this rental, I assure you won’t regret your stay here!

Summary: Do NOT let the reviews about the road scare you - a 4 wheel drive vehicle gets you up there just fine! This house is beautiful with sunsets that you will never forget! Wilson is easy to communicate with via whatsapp and he shows you to and around the house which is well-appointed for your group with everything you need for a great stay and any appliance you could want for meals, large clean bathrooms, and comfortable beds. The outdoor area will amaze you and the hanging swings were the perfect spot to relax during a rainstorm!

Summary: Stunning property and vista! We had an amazing stay over Christmas, the highlight of our trip to CR. The house was perfect for our family of five and would easily suit a larger family or a vacation with grandparents. Once there we did not leave the property, enjoyed the hike to the waterfall (thank you to whomever maintains that trail!), the lovely pool, lots of visiting birds, fragrant lime tree and the most amazing views. Adolf and Wilson were wonderful to communicate with, we truly felt like guests. Thank you!! We made awesome family memories in your home and hope to return one day!

Summary: One of the finest places I have ever had the pleasure to stay. The location, house, yard, pool, and impressive cascadas are a complete package of fantastic. Communication was seamless. Wilson (on-site coordinator) and Adolf (owner) were responsive to any questions I had during my stay. I look forward to returning to this beautiful piece of heaven on Earth.

Summary: First and foremost the house is great, comfortable with exceptional views! The kitchen has everything you need (blender, waffle iron, juice press, slow cooker…it’s missing some plastic wear for poolside but has everything else). The view from the master bedroom is sensational…and you will wake to the sound of howler monkeys every morning at dawn! It’s truly magical! The BUT…unfortunately is the lack of information on how bad the « road » is to get there…it’s a 15 minute white knuckle drive up the steepest incline, hairpin turn road every time you go out…or come in. The need for a significantly powered 4x4 can not be understated here… If you’re looking for a secluded paradise where you aren’t going to town often or out to dinners this is perfect!
