Sounds of the Jungle

8 in our group and for some it was their 3rd time back. Puerto Jimenez has grown considerably since our last time here. However, this place is off the beaten path ,still fairly secluded, and with the beach a short walk away, which is what we were looking for. Carlos is there to keep an eye on things and help however was needed. He is so kind and always has a smile and a Pura Vida for you. Chon our chef was incredible! If you don't speak Spanish have a translation app downloaded to help with communication. Jackie the housekeeper was also wonderful and kept the house clean daily. While we were there it was very warm and humid and the pool was appreciated to cool down. We had all the jungle sounds throughout the day and night. As well as visits from the howler, squirrel, and capuchin monkeys. We also saw many other jungle creatures right on the property. Definitely an adventure we will cherish and talk about for years to come.

Spring Break Trip (Family of 8, with 6 kids)

Excited about unique home, but expected some breeze given proximity to beach. Given how far back home is set in the jungle that was not the case. While house has ceiling fans, one in kitchen didn't work, and wasn't fixed despite us reporting. Many bugs in master, no other rooms had issues. We almost moved to a hotel the first evening (it was that bad), but we stuck it out. Enjoyed the pool (Carlos kept it clean each day!) and ended up making some great memories. -Capuchin monkeys on the property were a highlight! Being awakened by howler monkeys each morning at 4am was a surprise. We were warned upon arrival, but I wasn't aware when we booked. No way to sleep through this as it's VERY loud and quite frightening, but just went to bed early to be prepared to wake early. -Can't say enough good things about Chef Chon. Everything he served for dinner & breakfast was out of this world. -No dryer, only washer..hang on lines -Need to buy water..told better to not drink from tap. -Beach time was minimal as black sand too hot and the under toe was too dangerous. -Cab rides are VERY expensive. Rent car instead. -Book excursions before arrival. We were told we could wait for some, but then wasn't able to except snorkeling, which was disappointing. 2 hr ride to/from the boat..served picnic on beach no restaurant...didn't see much in a 8 hr excursion. -Necklace disappeared from our room, but Jackie (maid) was relentless in searching and found it after we left. Had swept it onto the roof.

BEST place to see the Osa !

I stayed with my family, three children ages 8, 12, 14. I feel like I couldn’t have picked a better Place to enjoy all that the Osa peninsula has to offer. The house is stunning and situated on the most private property. From the house we saw sooo many monkeys, birds and butterflies. The beach is just a short walk away, again, so private and beautiful. I suggest going to the point to swim where the water is calm. We were well taken care of by all the staff and we felt very safe there. We were able to enjoy so many outings all not far from the house. It was such a treat to have Chon cook for us, his food is delicious!! We let him decide what to make and it was so nice to not have to worry about cooking and cleaning. It truly was a trip of a lifetime!! You won’t regret staying here!!! I do suggest bringing a portable usb fan to have at night as the ceiling fans are not that powerful. The pool was such a nice way to cool off. With kids, the pool was essential! I hope I get to say at casa Atrevida again.

Amazing experience and adventure

Down a fun road, nicely secluded is the property. Beautifully manicured gardens line the driveway and walking paths with natural jungle overhead and all around. Gracias Carlos! Birds and monkeys were common visitors. When you approach the casa it lives up to the pictures. The casa is perched on pillars that elevate the walkways and living areas high enough to hover above the gardens for open views of the jungle surroundings. The rooms are spacious, each with their own private bathrooms. Clean and comfortable, gracias Jackie. We are two families, the rooms are grouped on either side of the 2nd floor walkway. The youngest child was 9. I would not bring toddlers or very busy minors that need constant supervision. Open views equals no railings on lower floors. Living area is welcoming and was great for hanging out. Kitchen has all necessities. Chef Chon was excellent! He had amazing meals ready for us and kept the kitchen spotless. The short walk back down the driveway, cross the road, walk through an archway covered with natural vegetation, palm trees, and the massive beach. The water and sand was great for our 9-10 year olds for playing in the small surf with no undertow. Water temperature was warm and relaxing. The pool is perfect, it has sitting areas like a hot tub. The middle was surprisingly deep, with cool refreshing water. The jungle was alive throughout the day, and at times, intense(howler monkeys) at night. Awesome experience! Gracias team Atrevida.

Experiencia única

Visitamos por casi una semana casa Atrevida toda la familia de mi esposo, nos distribuimos muy bien en los 5 dormitorios. Eramos 9 personas. Carlos y Vladimir fueron increíbles, siempre dispuestos a ayudar en todo. La fogata que nos hicieron una noche, simplemente espectacular. Ni que decir de las comidas preparadas por Chon. Realmente este equipo junto con Jackie, minimizan cualquier falta que tenga la casa. En lo referente a la casa en sí, le falta mantenimiento a los utensilios de cocina así como a los abanicos en especial, cocina y un cuarto
