The Space:

This stone casita on the Casa Paz finca is built for a small group, with a double bed and a single bed sharing one room and a private bathroom just off to the side. Like the rest of the property, it's built from volcanic stone, so the room stays naturally cool through the warmest hours of the day. There's no kitchen inside this particular casita — guests share the fully equipped kitchen in the main house, about 80 meters away, along with its dining table. A garden surrounds the casita, and portable fans and a mosquito net are provided in place of air conditioning.



Guest Access:

You'll have full access to the entire cottage, as well as the property's shared amenities and common areas. On arrival, the finca's caretaker meets you in person at the stone entrance gate and hands over the keys directly. Please note the kitchen for this casita is shared with the main house, about 80 meters away.



The Neighborhood:

This casita sits on the same private finca as Casa Paz, in Carrizal, a quiet rural corner of La Cruz in Guanacaste, where mornings start with birdsong rather than traffic. A river runs nearby, good for a swim or a cast of the line, and the surrounding countryside invites long walks and birdwatching. Santa Rosa National Park is within easy reach for a day of hiking through tropical dry forest, and the coast isn't far either — Playa Rajada and Playa Rajadita, two of Guanacaste's most photogenic beaches, are about 15 to 20 minutes away by car. Guests looking for a longer outing can cross into Nicaragua, about 20 minutes past the border, for a beach day there.



Getting Around:

A car is the easiest way to get around this part of Guanacaste, since the finca sits along a countryside road outside of town. The stone entrance gate is about a 5-minute drive — roughly 3 km — from the town of La Cruz, where you'll find shops, sodas, and the nearest fuel station. From there, Playa Rajada and Playa Rajadita are 15 to 20 minutes further by car, and the Nicaraguan border is about 20 minutes away for those planning a beach day across the line. We recommend arranging a rental car or private transport, since public transport in this rural area is limited.
