Bali Style Surfer/Family Compound-like House 5 min walk to beach - Jungle, Ocean | House in Pavones
3 Bedroom House in Pavones
Perched 150 feet above sea level, the views of ocean, sky, and jungle from this Bali-style house are mesmerizing….
From the living room, it is a five-minute walk to the beach and just a five-minute drive to Pavones Point, one of the best surf spots in Central America and home of the second longest left hander on the planet.
A perfect place to disconnect, we also offer the best internet service in the area--a satellite service-- so even in a power outage, you can stay connected. This is the only rental in the area with an advanced whole-house power backup system to keep everything ( lights, internet, fridge, and AC) on in a power outage* (if interested in this amenity, ask for details. It is an opt-in amenity.)
Set on 5 acres of lush jungle just 200 meters from the beach, this property has a gated entrance that opens onto a brick driveway that leads to the main house. Visitors are stunned by the natural beauty, ocean and jungle views, and sightings of the jungle wildlife (like monkeys and toucans), and by the brilliant house design that integrates seamlessly with the surrounds, giving an open, breezy feeling to the house and lending privacy to all guests in a group.

THE CENTRAL WING...
The central wing of the house contains an open-plan integrated living room, dining room, and kitchen with high vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, and panoramic views of the ocean and jungle. Large glass sliding doors open onto an elevated, covered deck with outdoor couches that overlook the saltwater pool and sun deck with lounge chairs below—a great place to take a dip, enjoy the sightings and sounds of the birds and wildlife that frequent the property, or just relax and allow yourself to be entertained by the often present monkeys as they swing from branch to branch in the mango trees.
…THE DINNING ROOM table offers seating for 6…
…THE KITCHEN is a dream for those who like to cook—stocked with good quality cookware and chef's knives, new stainless appliances (including a Viking gas stove top, Samsung dishwasher, Frigidaire side-by-side refrigerator, and Breville espresso & cappuccino machine), as well as a drip coffee maker, blender, toaster, small food processor, Pyrex, and other basics needed for cooking and dining.
…THE LIVING ROOM, with a comfortable seating area and a large wall of sliding glass doors opening onto a large deck, is the ideal place to relax and enjoy the view of the ocean and the famed Osa peninsula beyond and the spectacular sunsets.
THE MAIN BEDROOM WING…
Just to the left of the central wing is the wing that houses Bedroom #1, the largest of the three bedrooms—about 400 square feet. This bedroom offers awe-inspiring panoramic views, an en suite full bathroom, a huge walk-in closet, a king-size bed, desk, comfy lounge chairs, a dining table with seating for 4 (perfect for a private breakfast!), and both air conditioning and ceiling fans. The two glass walls are also windows that slide open. This room also overlooks the pool, sun deck, and garden below. The spacious bathroom features a shower with a full-length sliding window that opens fully so you can also enjoy showering at one with nature.
BEDROOM #2 & #3 WING….
The third structure, to the right of the central wing, contains two spacious bedrooms, each with its own en suite full bathroom. Both bedrooms adjoin a wide covered deck area where guests can enjoy the lovely setting in an outdoor living room and dining area or take a siesta in the hammock.
…. BEDROOM #2: Includes an en suite full bathroom, a queen size bed, café style table with seating for 2, a dresser, and bookshelves with an abundant and eclectic collection of books to browse—including a few must-reads on Costa Rica.
…. BEDROOM #3: Includes an en suite full bathroom, a king-size bed, desk, dresser, comfy reading chair, and both ceiling fans and an air conditioner.
THE GROUNDS:
Set in lush jungle, wildlife abounds here… there are three different types of monkeys (howler, capuchin, and squirrel monkeys), toucans, sloths, scarlet macaws, iguanas, anteaters, kinkajous, and so many other animals. There are various types of tropical fruit trees, including mango, avocado, banana, pineapple, papaya, coconut, and lime trees. And so many lovely varieties of flowers.
GUEST HOUSE: If interested, ask about availability.
…Completely independent and separate from the main house, the Guest House is located close to the front gate and is surrounded by tropical gardens. While it can’t be seen from the main house, it’s just a two-minute walk down to it, making it super convenient for groups who want more space or simply want an additional separate space.
The Guest House is a two-bedroom duplex with a full bath, living room, full kitchen, covered porch, and laundry room with washer and dryer.
*If available, the guest house can be rented with the main house, typically for an additional $185-300 per night.
LOCATION:
—From La Veranda, it’s just a 200-meter walk to the beach, where guests will find miles and miles of uninhabited shoreline to explore. The quaint little village town of Pavones—where guests can find restaurants and groceries and buy fresh seafood directly from the fisherman who caught them—is also just a five-minute drive from the house.
SAFETY NOTE: Architecturally, La Veranda was designed to maximize the views and wildlife observation, meaning there are many terraces, walkways, and low window sills without railings. For this reason, we do not recommend La Veranda for children under six or persons with Balance or ambulatory limitations.
