Enjoy Privacy

Imagine going back to your room after an exciting day of experiencing Costa Rica's Osa Peninsula, expecting to be able to unwind in a quiet setting, or maybe a little nap is in order, but the people you came with are already in the room wanting other things.

Casa de Costa Rica gives you the opportunity to have that little moment of privacy you desire as there are three bedrooms, a living room, a quiet backyard (and a hammock), a home entertainment center, two television sets, your space doesn't have to be shared with others.

More Than Just Sightseeing

Any vacation should be more than simply get up, go out, come back, go to bed, and do it all over again tomorrow. You may meet other tourists on your sightseeing trips or in the restaurant, but if you wish to get together you can either cram yourselves into your room or sit in a local bar. Renting Casa de Costa Rica allows you to invite them back to your home away from home. You can have a B-BQ, watch something good on Direct TV, hire a cook to prepare a meal, all in the comfort of your place. Imagine what your guests will think!

Casa de Costa Rica also gives you the opportunity to make new friends with locals, giving you the opportunity to not only view the physical beauty of the Osa, but to gain friendships with the heart of the area, the people. You can not only invite them into our home, but be invited to theirs! What better way to experience an area on your vacation?

Vacation "Time Out" In Privacy

A vacation shouldn't be one of go-go-go all of the time. There should be times when you can simply "chill out" in the privacy of your own backyard, lying in a hammock, listening to the native birds, maybe even watching some playful monkeys as they try to get you to toss them a few bananas (make sure they are ripe or those little playthings may throw them back at you).

Enjoy Your Own "Catch Of The Day"

Many people come to the Osa to enjoy the fantastic sport fishing in the Golfo Dulce and/or the Pacific Ocean. They will be thrilled as they tangle with a Marlin, Dorado, Snapper, Tuna, or many other beauties. Their thrill will wane when they get back to shore and have to either give their catch away, or sell it to locals, rather than enjoying it themselves.

Casa de Costa Rica offers a huge refrigerator/freezer where you can keep your catch fresh before you cook it over the B-BQ grill, broiler, or pan fry over the range.

Or, if you prefer, you can hire a Tica to have your meal ready for you and your party. Ask us about this feature.

Conveniently Located.

Casa de Costa Rica is conveniently located in Puerto Jimenez, the "Gateway to the Osa Peninsula" and all of the treasures of ecotourists." You will be only 300 meters from the most popular swimming beach in Puerto Jimenez, less than that to a grocery store, and about the same to the downtown area. The downtown area and its many restaurants, sodas, the bank, and other shops are within walking distance, making it unnecessary to rent a vehicle during your stay, thus saving several hundred dollars. If you prefer, you can call a cab for about 1,000 colones (approximately $2.00 USD).

Directly behind Casa de Costa Rica is the Corcovado National Park Office where you can get additional information and set your tour of the park. Also, directly behind you is the Osa Travel Tourist Office, where you can arrange many of the other tours and activities that interest you during your vacation. If you prefer to spend a day on the Golfo Dulce sport fishing, a great boat captain can be found directly behind Casa de Costa Rica. Rony is considered the best fishing captain in Puerta Jimenez.

The airport is about 2 blocks away where several flights throughout the day can take you to many destination spots of Costa Rica.  The Alfa Romeo office is locate within walking distance of Casa del Osa and Sansa and Nature Air offices are at the airport.

Privacy, Convenience, Luxury, And Money Saving

Coming to Puerto Jimenez and the Osa Peninsula assures you the opportunity of a lifetime to experience nature at its finest. The area is still pristine as the road leading in is only a little more than 10 years old. There are limited places to stay. Resort rooms can be rented for more than $200 per day ($1400 per week, for the first person and more for additional people in the room)and there are smaller hotel rooms for around $60 per day, but if you want air conditioning, if it is available, will cost an additional $10 per day, (this would come to $490 per week).

Casa de Costa Rica's low rates offers a place that is not shared with strangers. You control what you do and when you do it. It offers you the opportunity to invite others to your place. You can eat when you want, what you want, and even have it prepared by your own private cook if you desire. And, because you can purchase this food at a food store, it is less expensive and possibly more fresh than what you would get at a resort or restaurant. Of course, you could choose to dine at one of the many fine restaurants in Puerto Jimenez that are within a ten minutes walk of Casa de Costa Rica. The choice is yours.

Because Casa de Costa Rica is centrally located you do not have a need for a rental vehicle which can be very costly in Costa Rica. This savings alone could be $500 each week.

Most of the resort and hotel rooms in Puerto Jimenez are nice, but they are just that - rooms. With Casa de Costa Rica you get much more. Take a virtual tour and see for yourself.

You could also rent a home in Matapalo or Carate. Some offer beautiful views, but you will need to rent a vehicle as they are at least an hour's drive from Puerto Jimenez, with no restaurants or other conveniences (not even a gasoline station) available.
