Your own house in the jungle, 5 minutes from the beach!
Stay in your own house in the jungle, just up the road from the beach! This 5000-ft2 house (500 m2) will actually fit two families, a group of 15 friends, or several couples who want to enjoy a jungle holiday together. Nestled deep in a private tropical jungle setting but located a few minutes from the beach, the house enjoys a fully-forested lot size of 14 acres (5.5 hectares), ensuring privacy, tranquility, and plenty of opportunities to view many species of toucans, hummingbirds, and butterflies.
To say that the property is spacious is an understatement. While outside, relax by the pool while breathing in the ocean air. Explore countless kilometres of jungle hiking from the doorstep. Observe the toucans bouncing in the trees. Count the hummingbirds in the butterfly garden.
This is an open-air tropical house. The great room, dining area, bedrooms, and balconies provide privacy while making you feel that you are still outside in the beautiful Costa Rican rainforest. While a few windows have glass, most windows are screened only, and they always allow the jungle and ocean breezes to fill the rooms.

About the host
Hosted by Glen Aitken
I'm an entrepreneur and engineer. My wife, children, and I have travelled around the world, having collectively visited around 50 countries, and out of all of them, we chose Costa Rica as the place to invest in a tropical holiday home of our own. Costa Rica is friendly, stable, safe, and stunningly beautiful. We enjoy spending vacation time at our Costa Rican house, and we enjoy sharing the house with others when we're back at home in Canada.
Why they chose this property
This home has it all. It's located a few minutes from the most beautiful wild beaches one can imagine. It's very private, located within a density forested jungle setting with several acres of property; yet it's also only a few minutes' drive into town, where one can find all amenities one could want: restaurants, stores, and surf shops. The local people are very friendly and helpful. The house has an incredible view of the Pacific Ocean, and throughout the day, we are constantly visited by toucans, hummingbirds, and butterflies. Large enough to easily accommodate two or three families at the same time, this house is ideal for entertaining family and friends.
What makes this property unique
The house features high-speed internet throughout the house, rancho, and pool area. The house is located 2.5 hours' driving distance from SJO airport in San Jose.
