Photos and Description of the Cabo Matapalo vacation house rental
2 Bedrooms, 2 Baths, Sleeps 6

CASA TRES PECES is set right on the beach in the heart of Cabo Matapalo point, one of the most magical destinations in Costa Rica, the Osa Peninsula. National Geographic calls it one of the most bio-diverse lowland rainforests left in the world.

This beautiful two story open air tropical style home sits facing East towards incredible sunrises on an elevated rock outcropping right on the beach, giving it a spectacular view where the Gulfo Dulce and the Pacific Ocean meet. With 2 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms it is the perfect getaway for 2 couples or a small family.

Following a grassy, stone trail in front of the house it is only steps to a secluded sandy cove beach that has incredible tide pools (at low tide) perfect for lounging in or taking the children.

A canopy tree monkey path runs right across the front of the house where you can watch four species of monkeys jump from branch to branch.

A Swiss Family Robinson-like experience in jungle luxury you will never forget. Enjoy the feeling of living in the rainforest with amenities. If you love nature and all of its wild beauty, this is the place for you. Here you will find an incredible opportunity to connect with nature in a way that is just not possible in many places. Life is brought back to the natural cycles of the sun, the moon and the tide. It is an incredible feeling to live in a house that functions independently on solar. Come and experience solar power, spring water and an amazing off the grid lifestyle.

Other Activities: World Famous Birding, Waterfall Repelling, Tree Climbing, Wildlife Sanctuary, Swimming with Dolphins, Surf Lessons, Corcovado National Park, Horseback Riding, Boating

A week in paradise

5 of 5
Submitted: May 2, 2013 Stayed: April 2013
My husband and I spent a week in Cabo Matapolo at Casa Tres Peces and enjoyed ourselves so much! The caretakers Christian and Lala were such gracious hosts, we could not have asked for more! I am so glad everything worked out. The owner, Darren, was great.... answering my million emails and ensuring all my concerns were addressed. Once we were there, Christian went out of his way to make sure we were experiencing all the area had to offer. He even had us feeding monkeys, which was amazing! We have great memories that will last a lifetime. The only regret we have is not learning how to surf. Also, don't expect to swim right out front of the property. The view is stunnung but it is quite rocky, which was great for exploring the tide pools the rocks made, but not for swimming. Not to worry, there is a nice swimming beach a short walk away and this did not bother us at all. We would wholeheartedly recommend this house to anyone wanting a unique, off the beaten path experience with a perfect mix of adventure and relaxation!

Owner's Response: Thank you for the great review Jodi! Regarding the rocky beach out front, it actually is suitable for swimming, but not if there is swell running, and large surf, which is probably what you experienced during your stay. There is a sandy "entrance" to the water on either side of the large rock (see the beach panorama shot in our property photos), which I use to enter the water to swim, surf, snorkel, or kayak. Some of the best snorkeling in Matapalo is directly in front of the property, and we provide complimentary snorkeling gear at the house. The rocky coastline creates a natural barrier to public beach access, and so the beach area out in front of the property is extremely peaceful and private, with a few hidden sandy alcoves to enjoy, sunbathe, and siesta. pura vida.

Casa Tres Peces

5 of 5
Submitted: April 1, 2013 Stayed: March 2013
During our visit to Costa Rica we stayed at three different homes with Casa Tres Peces being our favourite by far. With an abundance of wildlife, spectacular sunrises and stunning coastline we did not want to leave.
Or children were especially excited with the proximity to beaches, surfing and tree climbing.
The on site groundskeepers, Christian and Lala took great care of us and everyone we met in the community was friendly and welcoming.
Surfing with Pollo, Martina's Bar and Psycho Tours were all hits with our family.
We plan on returning to Casa Tres Peces and highly recommend it to anyone looking for somewhere a little less travelled.

An experience for a life time

5 of 5
Submitted: December 28, 2012 Stayed: August 2012
The moment you leave urban areas, Costa Rica feeds you non-stop beauty and peace with that element of surprise and variety that only nature can create. The people do the rest. “Ticos” are friendly and helpful hosts. A trip to Cabo Matapalo seemed like the ultimate CR experience. A cape surrounded by ocean, gulf, and pristine rainforest, as far south as you can go in the Osa peninsula was something I needed to see. When my girlfriend and I found Casa Tres Peces we thought we had the perfect destination. We drove from San Jose to see as much of CR as possible and have that freedom and proximity of experience that you get with a car. On our way, we were constantly immersed in breathtaking sceneries: mountains, rivers, creeks, trees, plants, flowers everywhere, wildlife and the magnificent coastline. As we approached Cabo Matapalo this precious environment turned more rugged, secluded, unspoiled, varied and intense. The property surpassed our expectations. Casa Tres Peces is a gem of an open tropical house, perfect for the climate and built with great taste. The garden is landscaped preserving the natural habitat and the blue waters of the gulf crash at your feet. The house is completely off the grid and provides all creature comforts via its ecologically sound infrastructure: 12v power with solar panels, spring water, propane fridge, etc. We fell in love with the place and felt immediately at home. Life in Cabo Matapalo is dreamlike precisely because of the reality and impact of its natural beauty. You are within walking distance from secluded beaches, surfing breaks, trails to heights overlooking the open Pacific, a waterfall, and even to a couple of beautiful places to have dinner at. Everywhere you go and whatever you do the immersion in nature never breaks and you are bound, at any time, to cross a troop of monkeys, hundreds of scarlet macaws or a number of other species. If you stay at the house, they come to you. Howler monkeys will wake you in the morning and get you going with the rhythm of the forest and the tides. Discuss all practical matters with the owner: Darren. I had a lot of questions and he was always available, thorough and his advice for the journey and stay was crucial. At the house, you have caretakers Cristian and Lala. Cristian is nothing short of amazing. He can solve any problem with a smile and in no time. Thank you Darren, Cristian and Lala for making this unforgettable time at Casa Tres Peces possible!

We had a wonderful stay in Tres Peces.. in Cabo Matapalo.. It was like living in an enchanted garden. Prolific wildlife and birds..just loved it. I highly recommend this home for anyone venturing south to the Osa area..it is truly spectacular and we hope to visit again soon. Thanks to Christian for looking after us so well and taking us on "guided" tours.. the waterfall hike was great and the huge tree we lead him to..he had never seen it either..

A must see to believe

5 of 5
Submitted: June 8, 2012 Stayed: April 2012
This home exceeded our expectations in every way. I had two concerns in renting an open air home in the jungle. First was the insects and second was the heat. Neither were a problem and we enjoyed every moment in this home just steps from the ocean. It is difficult to describe waking each morning at 5:30 with the howler monkeys and the view of the sunrise from our canopy bed overlooking the ocean. Each day was a different adventure for us, including: hiking, snorkeling, surfing, tide pooling, fishing, tree climbing and looking for animals. We also enjoyed time just lounging in the hammocks. The home is beautiful and comfortable. My family (kids 14 and 17) will never forget this experience and we will return.
