Notes: Our pool is a jungle pool 5 min. away from the house, made by damming one of the very clean rivers that defines the property. Surrounded by rainforest, it's about 30X35' wide and max 5' deep. Cool and refreshing, gorgeous waterfalls nearby. 2 inflatable kayaks, 4 folding beach chairs, and one boogie board for the beach. State-of-the art water filters. Weber charcoal grill. Cell-phone only, with $200 deposit-- long-distance calls + $40/wk flat rate payed with deposit upon receipt of monthly bill, balance reimbursed to renter. Scrabble and Boggle + colored pencils and magic markers. We do NOT miss tv AT ALL but remember that an occasional movie, esp. for kids, can be a life-saver, so we'll probably buy a TV/VHS/DVD this December 2006. We do not provide toiletries, soap, toilet paper, etc. for the whole visit, but do make available a basket with a smattering of useful stuff and enough soap and paper to get you through to your first shop. Likewise, a first breakfast!


Dominical Villa Details

bird-watching: Perched on the edge of a 50-acre tree farm, the deck is a great place to watch falcons, kites, toucans and toucanets, mot-mots, and chattering flocks of parrots, big and small. Mornings ring with birdsong! Dozens of varieties of hummingbirds and tanagers visit nearby flowers (arbors and pergolas make plants part of the architecture), and butterflies occasionally fly through the house. We provide the definitive bird guidebook to Costa Rica as well as binoculars, and guests are always amazed at the diversity of species at this elevation. Having drinks on the deck at sunset accompanied by a pair of Laughing Falcons is unforgettable!

getting here: If your flight gets in after 2pm, you may want to consider spending the night in San Jose and getting a fresh start in the morning. The drive up into the mountains and down their spine is pretty spectacular if occasionally hair-raising—better to do it rested.

Rooms with a view...: It is very hard to capture the magical views of this property in a photograph--no camera has the depth of field! People who have seen a lot of views in Costa Rica agree, this is Very Special! The view off the main deck is soaring, with a steep (though not dangerous) drop-off that has been landscaped, and the dramatic play of light and mist in the valley changes all the time. Spectacular sunsets! Not a neighbor in sight! All the cabinas have their own decks and special views. The path down to the jungle pool through mature rain forest, carefully and selectively landscaped, is gorgeous. We have planted a new orchard, and have mature citrus, banana, papaya and hairy litchees for the picking. The spread-out floorplan of the buildings makes it impossible to shoot in one photograph, but they are all Asian-inspired open-concept with hard wood ceilings and many handcrafted details. A labor of love!

Other Activities: rappelling, yoga classes
