Nestled in Bahía Ballena, this lovely house for $285 per night is a great option for your next break. El Ballenato Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!' This spectacular beachfront hacienda is just what you and your family and friends are looking for during your Costa Rican vacation. There is so much space, so many awesome amenities, and so many things to do that you'll never want to leave! First thing, throw down your bags, crack open a frosty beverage, and stretch out in the enormous open-concept living space in the main house. You'll love the natural worked-wood supporting beams, the spiral staircase corkscrewing up into the second level, the beautiful floors, and the flood of natural light cascading through huge windows. The beautiful kitchen is equipped with everything your family chefs need to turn today's catch into a veritable feast. Enjoy it out on the expansive lanai with cold drinks and lively conversation then drift off to sleep in the super-comfortable hammock. When you're not down at the beach (just steps away), cool down in the private outdoor pool. Next to the main house, through the private garden and treeline is a beautiful two-story tropical villa with an open kitchen, natural worked-wood rooms, and balconies where you can choose if you want to take a glance at the pool, the beautiful trees, and surrounding jungles or the amazing blue ocean just in front of you! What's nearby: Spend your afternoon swimming across the water, or take a surfboard out to catch some waves. Feeling a little rusty? Head over to Surf Lessons Tour, just five miles away, to get some solid instruction on riding stance, balance control, and wave-catching from knowledgeable and friendly instructors. If you'd prefer to get a little farther out on the water, check out Dolphin Tours to book a trip along the shore to find dolphins and whales. You can also see moray eels and white tip reef sharks when you go under for a bit of snorkeling! Baru Waterfalls Tours is only 19 miles away and offers trips to see a three-tiered waterfall tucked away in a South Pacific jungle. You might even be visited by the occasional Toucan while dining out at the seasonal open-air restaurant. The property has direct access to the beach that is part of the National Park! Walking distance to a short hike at Playa Arco. The beach changes a lot during high tide, you can enjoy the beach at low tide.

Pros: Superlative location for nature, beach is practically private, wildlife everywhere, impeccable grounds! Our party of 5 only used the large house by the pool. Great WiFi but no cellular service Caretaker Francisco lives onsite. All windows have only small-mesh screens (no glass) so the surf can be heard and the breeze felt everywhere. We saw no mosquitoes or any biting bugs in December. Cons: Half mile entrance road is very rough and muddy, needs attention. The doors on the house are falling off the hinges. Dim indoor and outdoor lighting, not suitable for reading a book or playing board games. Only one narrow spiral staircase to the second floor, dangerous in case of fire and impossible to carry suitcases to upstairs. Doors on the house lock only from the inside! Wood floors inside are smooth and dangerously slippery, even in flip flops or barefoot. Getting to the beach is treacherous, 15 meters of loose river rocks sloping down towards the water. Kitchen is not well-stocked with utensils. Half the living room furniture was broken and unusable.

Million dollar beach but the houses were definitely over sold in the description and pictures. No hot water and no locking doors. Needs some repairs on screens to keep critters out. Fortunately my family is used to back country camping and we still had a great time. Francisco and his wife (onsite care taker) were great people. If you can deal without a few amenities, like the “rustic style” , secluded location and beach you’ll enjoy staying here. You will seldom come across a beach location like this, it definitely makes it worth the short comings of the house.
