GUEST ACCESS
Guest will have full access to the entire property. No other guests or homeowners will be on site during your stay.
** Please be aware that check-in is from 12 till 6pm. If your flight lands after 12:00pm, then we advise against trying to get to us the same day you fly in. We are 3,5 hours from San Jose. You also need to allow time for customs and immigration, recuperating your rental car, and stops along the way (lunch, grocery shopping), making for a long day. It does get dark at 6pm, and if it is your first time to Costa Rica, it’s best to drive in daylight hours only. We will gladly recommend accommodations nearby the airport.**
NOTES
**A 4x4 vehicle is required for your stay. Our community roads are well maintained and easy to navigate, but they are dirt roads, and some parts are steep.
Non-smoking, not suitable for small children and no pets allowed
NEIGHBORHOOD DESCRIPTION
Villa Escondido is located in the Lagunas de Baru community, situated between the National Park of Manuel Antonio in Quepos (1h drive) and the Marino Ballena National Park in Uvita (40 min drive).
The pleasant town of Dominical, located 15 min away from the Villa, provides plenty of coffee shops, restaurants & bars, grocery stores, and most of all, Dominical beach, one of Costa Rica's surfing hotspots!
Some of the best beaches nearby (only 25 minutes away) include Playa Matapalo and Playa Linda, Playa Dominicalito, where you can relax with a cocktail or lunch at La Parcella, a clifftop restaurant overlooking the ocean waves crashing onto the rocky shore below, and where you can watch the sunset almost all year round.
Other activities close by include treks to nearby waterfalls including the Nauyaca Waterfalls, Eco Chontales Waterfall in the middle of the jungle, hiking at Hacienda Baru, canopy tours, horseback riding, deep sea fishing, sea kayaking, scuba diving and snorkeling.
And don’t forget the weekly markets (ferias) in Tinamaste, Dominical, Uvita and San Isidro.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Lorna

My partner and I fell in love with Costa Rica many years ago. We finally realized our dream and moved to Costa Rica to start a new chapter in our lives. We found a different way of life, enjoying the outdoors, discovering a wide variety of plants and trees, photographing wildlife in its natural environment, making friends with expats and many Ticos and enjoying the Pura Vida way of life.
We travelled and lived in several countries, discovered different cultures and languages, and we love to meet and share moments with people, but one thing we really enjoy doing is discovering little rental gems. This is what we want to share with you, by offering you the experience of a luxurious jungle getaway. You will be immersed in the vastness of the jungle, caressed by the valley breeze, lulled by the whisper of the river, and surrounded by wildlife while living in luxury and safety.

Why they chose this property
Lagunas de Baru is an exclusive and beautiful mountain community comprised of Ticos and foreigners. Even though the community has over 100 homes, every home is secluded and private, while knowing that your neighbor isn't far away in case of a problem.
There are many dirt roads that you can hike and see all the wild animals and birds you'll find in Manuel Antonio!
