Cannot say enough about this property as it has a fantastic view of the ocean and forest. We ventured out daily to take various tours and always looked forward to returning mid afternoon to enjoy the pool and lounge area. David and Michelle were exceptional hosts and we enjoyed spending time with them. Would not hesitate to stay here again!

This was an absolutely magical visit. The views were spectacular, accommodations top-rate, and David and Michelle are such wonderful, lovely, and helpful hosts. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit, the surrounding wildlife and daily morning walks on the mountain. David and Michelle made us feel right at home. The house is truly situated on a slice of heaven, and I will longingly recall our stay as I sit back to work at my computer at home. It was hard to leave. Michelle and David - thank you so much. We really enjoyed our little visits with you - you guys are the best!!

What an amazing spot in the world and the hosts, Michelle and David, were beyond gracious and accommodating! We loved every minute of our stay and enjoyed all that came with it. Emerson, a local chef, was recommended by Michelle and what a find he was. He was so good we ended up having him for another night. The whole stay was so so delightful that we booked another stay for next year! Thank you Michelle and David for sharing your joy with us! Cathy, Dave, Nancy and Lisa

My friend and I came for a week of enjoying nature, both the sights during the day and the stars at nights. The experience was nothing less than outstanding. I liked it so much I booked a 2.5 week stay in March of 2024. A special message to anyone interested in astronomy. This location is great. Located at the top of the cerro fresco mountain at 1200 ft and about 4 miles as the crow flies to the ocean. Most nights were clear at sunset, and if cloudy, the skies cleared by midnight. Got some of my best photos ever with my digital telescope. David and Michelle are absolutely lovely hosts and went above and beyond to insure we have a great time. Staying here will be a wonderful experience for you. I guarantee it.

What can I say? This place is truly magical. I have tears in my eyes as I type this. I will tell you right now, you will NEVER want to leave. David and Michelle are the most gracious hosts you will have the pleasure to know. My husband and I now consider them friends. We cannot wait to visit Costa Rica again and will most definitely stay at Pedazo de Cielo. It truly is a little piece of heaven. <3

Michelle and David are wonderful hosts who made sure we had everything we needed to have an amazing stay in their beautiful home. We forgot our binoculars and they were gracious enough to lend us theirs. We enjoyed the very thoughtful welcome gift very much! We will be back!

We were initially concerned about privacy with the owners living onsite. First, they are 2 of the nicest most welcoming people I have ever met in my life. They gave us total privacy. I actually regret not making time for a glass of wine or cocktail with them in the evening. Next time! (We booked 2 weeks next year!). The pool and view cannot be beat. This setup was perfect for us!

David and Michelle made sure we had everything we needed for a wonderful relaxing time!

Loved it!!! Great hosts and a great house to stay at. Would not mind coming back again. Thank you, Michelle and David.

Spectacular lodging with walls of windows with panoramic views and nature including wildlife. The tower hot tube is amazing.

This is the place for privacy and luxury while still being close to a town. David and Michelle are awesome hosts. They are there if you need them without invading your privacy. The place is beautiful and comfortable. Just like being at home. You will not be disappointed in this property!! A big plus is zuri. The resident dog! So cute and playful. The wildlife is amazing. We had monkeys, igauanas, birds, macaws , dart frogs and can’t forget the cat shadow!!

What an amazing stay we had @ Pedazo De Cielo. From the gracious, welcoming hosts( David and Michelle ),to the amazing property with spectacular views, it was nothing short of perfect. They greeted us with a smile in heavy rain and helped us with our luggage:) David and Michelle go above and beyond taking care of their guests. We thoroughly enjoyed our evening conversation at their front porch around sunset. House is gorgeous and pictures do not do justice. Every morning we sat and had our tea & watched the monkeys swing through the trees eating dates! The toucans were everywhere! So the Red Mcaws!!! The drive from the airport was easy, the road up the mountain to the house dirt and rocky but added an element of fun to it. Great location near beautiful beaches, good restaurants, Manuel Antonio, and more!! Michelle even helped us arranging an amazing dinner cooked by personal chef and owner of @zonakatelier @keniasalaschef .The food was so delicious that we still have taste in our mouths. Hands down they have been the best hosts ever, can’t wait to return! Thank you to David and Michelle for opening up your paradise to allow others to experience the beauty and oasis in Jaco.

We were a group of four consisting of two couples. All of us had an amazing time. The view is unbelievably beautiful, and the pool area and outdoor seating areas were outstanding. Michelle and David are very kind and gracious hosts. We saw some very cool wildlife including the big group of monkeys that all hang out on one tree in the mornings. The one thing that I would caution is that the road up the mountain can be a challenge to navigate, particularly during or right after rain (and at night). We had a four-wheel drive vehicle so while it was a bumpy ride, we were able to make it up and down several times throughout our stay. I personally would not want to try that in a sedan, though I am sure some people do without any significant issues. I truly hope that we are able to stay there again in the future to enjoy the pura vida!

What a perfect place! Away from the crowds and noises with incredible views. Absolutely delightful hosts. We actually got married on the patio by the pool. It was literally as good as it gets.

From the location of the property, to the hosts, to the wildlife and views- we couldn't have asked for a more perfect experience. Michelle and David went above and beyond to ensure our stay was an absolute dream. Close to the beach but a full jungle experience. This property is breath taking and we cannot wait to come back.

The house is spectacular and the same can be said about the hospitality of our hosts. They did everything and more to make us feel at home. We enjoyed the views, the pool, and the house. There is lots to do and see in the area and so we filled our 6-day stay and truly regretted that we had to leave and go back home. Our hosts allowed us to arrive a day early due to a tropical storm in the location where we were coming from -- this was super nice. We highly recommend booking this house and will come back, if time permits.

So we come to the end of this 3 week vacation. Definitely my very favorite thing that we did was our photos that we arranged to have done on the beach. We definitely lived it up…zip lining, atv tours, crocodile tours, exploring the beaches, horseback riding, chocolate tour, waterfalls, miles of walking the beach, and so much more. The monkeys and iguanas at the house everyday was fun to watch too. Oh and the food, food and more food. The house and pool are amazing with amazing sunrise and sunset views. Our last night @pedazo_de_cielo_costa_rica we enjoyed an amazing dinner cooked by personal chef and owner of @zonakatelier @keniasalaschef Thanks to David and Michelle for the wonderful meal and great time while we stayed there. #jaco #jacobeach #puravida #foodporn #foodphotography #sunset #costarica🇨🇷 #costarica #vrbo

Everything about this place is amazing! The house is spacious and clean with plenty of hot water and everything you need is provided. Michelle and Dave were extremely welcoming and accommodating in every way! We will be staying here again next time we return to Jaco.

What an amazing stay we had at Pedazo de Cielo, if we could give it 1000 stars we would. From the gracious, welcoming hosts (❤️Michelle and David), to the amazing property with spectacular views, it was nothing short of perfect! The wildlife surrounds and even comes right onto the property! From white faced monkeys, to parrots, iguanas to toucans we saw it all. The drive from the airport was easy, the road up the mountain to the house dirt and rocky but added an element of fun to it. Great location near beautiful beaches, good restaurants, Manuel antonio, and more!! Our 3 kids (6,9,12) were so sad to leave and already ask about returning which we hope to real soon!! Thank you Michelle and David, you have forever touched our lives!! ✨❤️

Michelle and David were amazing, and their place was magical. We couldn’t have asked for a better place after our travels. The view, the pool, the hammocks and animals, their place was gorgeous. If I’m ever back in Costa Rica, I will definitely stay here. Thank you for the amazing hospitality.

The property is beautiful and really well maintained! Our first trip up the mountain felt long and a little scary but by the end we were pros! It was definitely worth the trip. We very much enjoyed our time on the mountain and found it relaxing to be away from all the hubub in Jaco or even at Playa Hermosa. Our goal was a relaxing vacation without too many activities. We did spend time at Playa Jaco, Play Hermosa, Playa Herredura, went to Carrara national Park, and a Buggy ride to waterfall. We also spent days just enjoying the pool and the view. We met the resident iguanas and saw Toucans, monkeys and may other birds. The host and hostess were very sweet and helped us with everything we needed. The house is well provisioned, and we felt both welcome and cared for!
