What you will love about this home
Our Jungle home is within a gated community on the north east side of Quepos away from the concentrated tourist area. (Site map location not accurate). Yet we are still within easy access to Ziplines, Biophia Park with its 20 types butterflies, 120 medicinal plants, and jungle night tours. A Chocolate tour is offered within the same area. It's a 15 to 20-minute drive to Manuel Antonio beaches and National Park. Our home is within a wildlife corridor, and therefore nature comes to you throughout the day. You may be awakened by Congo Monkeys but will have trouble spotting them. It is not uncommon for Titi and Whiteface monkeys to come through in troupes of approximately 15-20, especially early in the morning. Numerous birds such as Toucans, Parrots, and Hummingbirds abound.
Our home comprises two independent apartment units ( we live in the upper unit with our rescue dog Matti). The first floor unit has more covered outdoor space than interior space (714 sq.ft covered outside space and 380 sq ft. interior space totaling 1,090 finished covered space) It is about life outdoors! The 2 bedrooms are air conditioned with queen beds, walkout french doors with security screens leading to a large private backyard porch and level access to the pool, rancho, courtyard, and parking that are shared spaces with the upstairs unit. The kitchen is well stocked with cooking utensils to allow for creative meal preparation, perhaps inspired by our developing edible landscape plants. Basic kitchen ingriedients are provided to help you get started.
We have a minimum stay of 3 nights and cannot accomodate pets as our dog Matti gets stressed, but loves humans.

What you will love about this neighborhood
Our gated community prides itself on being a quiet, respectful, and supportive community situated between the towns of Immaculada and Quepos. Each lot is 1.5 to 3 acres, allowing for private space but not isolated from one another. Our tree and Hibiscus bush-lined interior gravel roads allow for enjoyable walks and views of the mountains and distant ocean. It is difficult to imagine that you are only 5 minutes from the town of Quepos, the marina, the regional hospital, bus station, and small airport (both accessing San Jose and connections to the rest of Costa Rica).
Additional information
Costa Rica's ecosystem is very balanced as a result bugs are not a major issue. Yet be aware we have a variety of insect visitors. We are very accustomed to assorted reptiles, insects, little lizards, frogs, toads and gecko's passing through. It is common for locals to allow a few of the gecko's to live inside as they are phenomenal at catching and eating insects (super fun to watch). Outside there are a few resident cane toads, iguanas, bats and birds to keep everything in check. it is a pleasure to enjoy the outdoors without insects ruining your evening.
