Great Deal on Luxury Home with Gorgeous Ocean Views !

First of we were greeted by Jimmy who was the warmest most attentive guy you could ask for. He would aer set us up on the most fantastic adventures and was always right on the money when we needed a suggestion for a romantic dinner or a great beach at sunset. He was always there but never intrusive. He always answered the phone and ended every conversation by saying he was always there for anything we needed or if w somehow got lost while driving. Now to the villa itself. You cannot believe the viws from this place and the whole vibe of being in it all but at the same time you are living among the Locals or Ticos as they refer to themselves. Each morning was spent on the veranda enjoying the great tropical fruit avilable everywhere. We were usually greeted by some birds or some other wildlifethat was curious. We could see some howlers monkeys in the distant tree tops as well. At night we would enjoy a spectacular sunset while we prepared our dinners in the gourmet kitchen so well equipped it made our homes seem lacking.Evry kitchen tool for cookingor smoothies was there and the penninsula was so awesome to prepare food on or just to nsit and write emails from. The bedrooms were spacious and very well appointed and the bed we slept in was so comfortable I almost forgot I have a herniated disc and a ton of arthritis. Truthfull I cannot say enough good about this place and it had somemajor competition from the place we left earlier in Manuel Antonio however it was superior to Manuel and it didn't take us long to forget Manuel :-). As far as proximity to things it was perfect. You are a 15 minute drive to the surf,dining and shopping hot spot Tamarindo and less than two kilometers to a totally secluded little beach called Dantita where a Tico told me he lived in Guanacaste his whole life and never new about this place. There is also a restaurant called Lola's that has the freshest food and a view second to none. I have to admit that writing this is bittersweet because I don't want to see this place get spoiled and overrun with tourists but out of fairness to the owner Jill Walsh and the people that took care of us at Special places I owe this review to them. I plan on returning soon and I thank you for the privledge of experiencing Cost Rica in it's fullness. Five stars are not enough. I can honestly say that I understand the real mening behing the words "Pura Vida"
