Ocean view home with pool & a cool breeze, 10 minutes of the beach of Dominical

We loved out stay at Terre Verde! We would return here for sure! The house is much better than the photos. Breathtaking views, very private, lots of space, wonderful pool, fully equipped kitchen, wireless internet access and wildlife all around you! We saw toucans and slothes almost every day right there from our balcony or by the pool. You will definitely need a four wheel drive to get up the steep, long dirt road but it’s well worth the drive.
We cooked most evenings since the kitchen was wonderful. We found a great local place to buy seafood right at someone’s home in town. Once you are in town follow the dirt road along the river, under the bridge and turn right after a hotel. You will see a sign for Pescatoria. The seafood was amazing, local, fresh and inexpensive. If you can’t find it ask at one of the small grocery stores in town because they are the ones that told us about it.
We went to three beautiful waterfalls which were all easy to get to without much hiking - Pozo Azul Waterfalls in Dominical, Uvita Waterfall and a private waterfalls on a farm near the Talapia farms in Ojochal.
Our favorite beach was Playa Ventanas, windows beach which gets its name from the sea caves that during high tide blow out gusts of air and water. It was amazing. I think at low tide you can even go into the caves.
The town of Dominical was very low key and fun. Don’t except anything fancy here it’s very beachy, hippy and relaxed just what we were looking for. We ate lunch at Tortilla Flats which is a must do.
Tried surfing but the waves were huge. It was fun to watch all the experiences surfers though. There was a nice open restaurant at the end of the strip on the beach that we had breakfast at which was very good.
In Uvita we found a wonderful bakery at the end of our trip. Wish we would have known about it earlier as the empanada were wonderful as well as the pastries and bread.
Loved Dominical but especially loved our stay at Terre Verde!
