Retraite en montagne, Jaco Costa Rica. Seulment les adultes

We are a friendly, fun loving, deeply committed couple who embrace the Costa Rican 'Pura Vida' way of life and all it has to offer. David is Texan born and Michelle is 2nd generation Zimbabwean who has called a number of countries home between Africa and Costa Rica.
Our home and its stunning location is unique and we get such pleasure sharing the beauty and tranquility with visitors, friends and family. Our onsite fur-family includes our cat, Shadow and our small dog, Zuri. Both are friendly but will keep their distance unless encouraged to interact by you. We have an abundance of wildlife visiting on a regular basis, although you will miss the majority of these special moments if you opt to get up late. Sunrise with a cup of coffee is perfection and your bed will be waiting for you after if you feel so inclined. Photo ops will be plentiful, bring your good camera.

Although we reside on the top level of the house, we respect your tranquility and privacy. There are cameras at the front of house however the guest areas are camera free. We like to build a rapport with our guests in the run up to arrival to be sure that we are a good match and to assist with planning your perfect stay. We are available throughout your stay, to assist you in anyway we can. We have a number of reliable visiting services and professionals including realtors for those seeking to move here in the future. However we do ask that you followup in person on any bookings or appointments made through our contacts to avoid possible disappointment.

We look forward to meeting you soon and to providing you with a vacation experience that will leave you relaxed and wanting to come back for more.

Simply because our name Pedazo de Cielo says it all! This really is a Slice of Heaven and the minute you drive through the gates you will feel the welcome that the property and it's caretakers exude.

From the front of house you can enjoy the views of Jaco town and from the back unhindered views of the pacific coast. Both sides are beautiful at any time day or night, but at sunset (front) and sunrise (back) it showcases its full beauty - check out the photo section to stir your senses and ignite your soul.

At an elevation of 1400ft we are far enough above it all to provide a sense of remote wilderness, but we are close enough to the town of Jaco and beachfront restaurants of Playa Hermosa to be convenient. Town is a 20 minute commute and some of the best beaches in the area are a 15 minute drive away. Our dirt mountain pass is in good condition and adds a sense of awe and adventure to your final leg of the journey. 4WD is not a necessity during the dry[er] months; however an SUV would be preferable for ground clearance. AWD for the wettest season may be preferable.
DON'T BE PUT OFF BY THE TERM RAINY SEASON! - June - mid November provide cooler weather - most days being sunny and dry with the early evenings and nights serving up a delectable mix of awe-inspiring thunder and lighting storms and torrential rains. You have to experience this season to understand and appreciate the true beauty of this location. It is this time of year that you realize just how many hues of green there are in an equatorial jungle setting. When you are living above the clouds and birds it adds a certain awe to existence.
Dry season starts in December and ends in May with the first quarter of the year providing hot, dry weather and warm evenings. NB: If you are vetting the area to possibly live here, we strongly recommend experiencing both seasons before making the leap.

Our motto; 'Discover Our Pura Vida, Rediscover Yourself' sums up the outcome of your stay.
