About this property

Private property with pool and fantastic views

Come and enjoy the experience of living in a tiny village in the hills of the Central Pacific Coast called San Miguelito, Puntarenas, Costa Rica. Over 90 years ago this property was once part of a bigger lot owned by the Prince and Princess of Prussia and has a rich background in biodiversity.

The property itself features two residential houses inside a lush green 1/2 acre compound surrounded by a garden filled with palm trees. It also has a BBQ ranch with grill, private infinity swimming pool, jacuzzi and a breathtaking view of the Pacific Ocean and Nicoya Bay. Great for a family vacation or a group retreat.

The houses are older construction and have been in a process of improvements and renovations, but provide a beautiful environment and all the necessary comforts needed for a pleasant stay.

Each house has its own fully equipped kitchen, TV with cable, A/C in all bedrooms, wifi, telephone and a security system. The apartment and main house can comfortably accommodate up to 8 people each. (Three rooms have double beds the others have single beds/bunks).

There is open parking for 6-8 cars.

If you want to be away and enjoy your private property with pool, but still be only 20 minutes away from the nearest beach, this is the place to be.

Casa Prusia
La casa tiene áreas sociales muy espaciosas, una mesa enorme para compartir al lado de una piscina hermosa. Los encargados fueron amables y nos respondieron ante dificultades. Sin embargo, la limpieza deja mucho que desear. La limpieza y el mantenimiento pueden mejorar para que la casa y apartamento se mantengan en mejores condiciones.

This could be a beautiful property with some maintenance and cosmetic changes.
The property could be an amazing vacation rental with some cleaning and improvements. Upon arrival we checked the main house and immediately decided not to stay in it!! It could use a major cleaning and only offered on queen bed in the upstairs room. The other two were bunk beds. The patio furniture and patio was dust and leaf covered and didn’t look like it had been cleaned for months. We then checked out the upper apartment which was 48 stairs up from the main house and that’s where we stayed. It has two large bedrooms and on suite baths. The air worked fine. The kitchen living room area had a musty smell the whole time there and we discovered black mold under the kitchen sink. It was much cleaner than the main house. The pool was the best part of the property it was clean and refreshing. The property owners did respond quickly to any questions we had. Was somewhat disappointed in the cleanliness and appearance of the property but we made it work as we are adventurous and stay out mostly through the day exploring. As I Mentioned this could be an amazingly beautiful property with some deep cleaning and some repairs. Enjoyed our time in Costa Rica and planning our next adventure to the island of Barbados in November!!

Barranca Holiday
Mari a été disponible par téléphone durant ce séjour, nous aurions peut-être aimé la voir au check in. Mari a une très jolie propriété qui se divise en deux maisons. Une maison qui se compose de deux chambres et une autre qui se compose de trois chambres avec entre les deux maisons la piscine et la terrasse (très jolie). Le point négatif a été la propreté qui n’était pas au rendez-vous…

Great experience with mine and my wife's family. 2 separate living spaces with a common area pool and outdoor kitchen. Views of Nicoya peninsula, local neighborhood, peaceful relaxation, very good for the price.
