You can also take advantage of the easy access to the terrace, private seating area and pool – from the privacy of the master bedroom – through the sliding glass doors. From the terrace you can view the pool, enjoy the mature gardens around the perimeter of the property, hear the birds, watch the monkeys and spring rains during a thunderstorm – all the while – soaking up the “Pura Vida” of Costa Rica. Past the master bedroom – there is a laundry room with stackable washer/dryer combo, and an on demand hot water heater. The unique bathroom and indoor/outdoor shower – create a sense of privacy and at the same time allows nature to come “in.” The third casita (Casa Verde) is 1000 sf in size – is one level and has a master bedroom and one bathroom – accessible through the hallway – from the open living space design. It is fully furnished, has AC in each room, and presents with teak wood ceilings, dining table made of Guanacaste wood, and ample room for the kitchen and indoor entertainment area that allows natural light to filter in.

There is a 2nd covered terrace – all private – accessible from the kitchen area as well through the front sliding glass door. All of the casitas are strategically placed on the property – with enough distance from each other.
