About this house rental

The Costa Ballena, or Whale's Coast, is one of the coolest spots in Costa Rica. This beautiful home features the best view of the Whale's Tail in the Southern Zone and enjoys continuous fresh breezes. In addition to the awe-inspiring view, the benefits of being up in the mountains include a microclimate that is about 10 degrees cooler than in town and on the beach, and few biting insects, as we are above the "bugline".

Sarah (owner) goes out of her way to make sure your experience is pleasurable. We stayed over Christmas, the weather was great, only one rainy day. You definitely need 4x4 to reach this house. The house is pretty isolated up on mountain but my oh my, the views including the sunsets are amazing. On the not so good side, the jacuzzi tub was missing pipes/faucets, the hotwater heater wasn't working properly, the whale tail fountain at the pool was inoperable & the washing machine broke. There is only A/C for the bedrooms, we unknowingly set the temp too low (not having used a wall mounted system b4), were scolded a bit by Sarah. Some outdoor lighting did not work during our stay. All trash needs to be driven in your vehilce approx 10 minutes towards the bottom of the mountain. That's a very specific knit-picky list and overall didn't affect our great stay. When we notified Sarah of the hot water issue, we got an odd response- oh, hmm, that's never happened before. Then an awkward long pause as neither of us said anything - did she think we did something wrong? We just wanted enough water to shower. To her credit, there was an immediate response & the problem was rectified that evening. The house is a legit 4 hr drive from the San Jose Airport, plan accordingly. Sarah communicated extensively with our party throughout the stay. Every (Sarah) booked event was as advertised & top notch. Having her chef prepare us dinner the first night was great.

Our hosts, Sarah and Mark, were incredible. They helped set up all - ATV, Zipline, White Water rafting, and Adventure Tour at Corcovado National Park - all our tours/activities, such as FUN. The best part was returning home to Casa Cola Ballena. We lived at this incredible home set in the mountains and overlooking "Whale Tail" Beach for eight glorious days. It was an unforgettable trip, and now we have two forever friends in our hosts, Sarah and Mark. Thank you.

If this property is available, book it! It is stunning, safe and impeccably maintained. The home is gorgeous, the view is phenomenal and the furniture and bedding is so comfortable. The kitchen has everything and more. Bathrooms had everything with many amenities in case you left something at home. Sarah and Mark are the best. They were so accommodating, communicative and just the kindest. We felt right at home. Many times, we just stayed and relished the tranquility of the home and its surroundings while lounging in the pool. We visit Costa Rica frequently and have found our favorite place to stay.

We had a wonderful stay with huge thanks to Sarah! She helped us secure a rental car and planned all of our excursions for us. We loved the ATV Tour, horseback riding to Nauyaca Waterfalls, and ziplining the most. We were late arriving and Sarah offered to get a pizza for us and some breakfast food - a big help! The house is beautiful, especially the view. We enjoyed hanging out there and relaxing by the pool. Chef Willy, also lined up by Sarah, was a delight and provided a fabulous meal for us. We also enjoyed Mosaic, Los Laureles, Jolly Roger, and feeding the monkeys at La Parcela ( definitely BYOBananas as Sarah suggests). The house was perfect for my family of five. I can't recommend it highly enough. Thank you, Sarah, for an amazing experience and adventure that my family will never forget!!!

Check in/out was super easy and Sarah was an excellent host. She helped us with anything we needed. When we arrived, she met us in town and we followed her to the property. Dirt road to the property was exciting with views of the mountains and jungle. Definitely need 4 wheel drive to get to the house as Sarah suggested. Beautiful house and the views were amazing. We enjoyed the pool daily. House was very clean and the outdoor shower was really nice. We would definitely stay here again.

We cannot say enough good things about Casa Cola Ballena! The house and location were great but what made our vacation special was Sarah! Sarah made all our reservations and helped us with the many questions we had everyday! The ATV tour, Corcovado, Ziplining, and chef Willy are a must! We saw wildlife everyday and Sarah always helped us with restaurant reservations and questions. When we arrived to eat somewhere, it was like we were family! The road to the house is tricky the first time or two but after that, it’s fun!
