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.
