This property was great for our family of six. It is truly located in the jungle! There's a beach within walking distance - Playa la Macha - you can't drive to the beach and the terrain to access is rough, but it is beautiful. And, because of the difficult terrain, it doesn't seem to be a huge tourist attraction. We had the beach practically to ourselves! When the kids didn't feel like going to the beach, the pool was a great alternative. From the pool, you could watch capuchin monkeys, scarlet macaws, and iguanas sunning themselves. If you rent a car, make sure that it's a 4x4 because the house is down a mostly gravel road. Some of the tour companies are willing to pick you up in front of the house and some will only meet you at the top of the hill at Hotel Bongo. It wasn't a big deal for our family to make the short walk up to the meeting location. Adriana, the owner was great -she was helpful with suggestions for restaurants and places to visit. And she DOESN'T give you a "laundry list" of things to do at checkout - like strip all the beds, take out the trash, etc. You are truly on vacation when you stay at her property. It was a wonderful trip and we would definitely stay here again if we ever decide to visit Costa Rica in the future.
