Tours can be prearranged by our local concierge, Rayna who will be assisting you during your stay in Costa Rica.Sierpe is located on the Osa Peninsula area of Costa Rica. It is a friendly and safe rural community that has a back in time feel. It is a gateway to the Pacific Ocean via the Sierpe River. The property listed is located on the Sierpe River just 30 minutes to the Pacific Ocean by boat.

THE RENTAL IS TOTALLY ACCESSIBLE BY CAR OR OTHER VEHICLE IF THAT IS IMPORTANT FOR YOUR STAY!

BEING FROM SOUTH LOUISIANA, I AM SURE YOU WILL AGREE, AIR CONDITIONING IS A MUST IN THE JUNGLE!!!

People really have no idea how great the fishing can be from here... It is truly an undiscovered fishing hot spot.

If you want a tranquil day of river fishing or an adventurous day of inshore or off shore fishing, all are easily accessible from here.

Marlin, tuna wahoo, and mahi mahi are plentiful as are sailfish, especially during January - May. There are many charter boats available that can be prearranged (at WAY better prices than you will find anywhere else in Costa Rica). If you are a people watcher, you can watch people from all over the world boarding their tour boats to Corcovado and Drake Bay, while dining on the deck of the local eatery.

The property is well maintained by locals and they are ready to assist you in all your needs, to make your stay a pleasurable one.

. On our many trips to our Costa Rican home we have enjoyed side trips to Panama, Manuel Antonio, and the Arenal volcano and the many towns that surround Sierpe. Feel free to contact us for help planning your vacation to Costa Rica!!!!!!!

Sierpe - A place of amazing diversity!

My wife and I enjoyed 10 magnificent days of peace, adventure, and excitement in this beautiful and well-appointed home on the estuary just a short kayak paddle to the Sierpe River. Rayna acted as our own private Concierge while in Sierpe. Anything we needed or wanted to do, she always took care of all of the details and found us the best prices. She could single handed make Sierpe a destination retreat for anyone! The elevated dock side patio offered us incredible views of countless numbers of unique species of passing and resting birds! Among those we saw were Scarlet Macaws, Scrub Euphoria’s, Common Potoo, Cherrie's Tanager, Blue-Gray Tanager, Green Heron's, Purple Gallinule, Amazon Kingfisher, Great Egret, a multitude of hummingbirds, to name a few. We counted close to 70 species of birds during our stay. We went on mangrove tours, fishing excursions, sightseeing trips to the mouth of the Sierpe River where it meets the Pacific, night hikes, self-guided kayak tours. The home was a very short walk to restaurants s in town along with some markets for supplies. We lacked for nothing. We drove to Sierpe from San Jose. We actually could have done quite nicely without one. Would consider flying to Palmar Norte and taking a taxi to Sierpe next time we visit!

Great base in sierpe

Just returned from Sierpe and had this house for 11 days. Lots of room, 3 bathrooms, tile floors, and the important A/C. Wonderful views of the tributary of the Sierpe River with covered areas at rivers edge. Sierpe is a very sleepy town with good places to eat typical Costa Rica cuisine. We were given the name from the home owner of a local travel agent Rayna Levin at muchacostarica dot com who helped set up other trips. Rayna set us up with the guide Kelly Dweller at kellydweller at gmail dot com Kelly is a great bilingual guide from San Francisco who is an offical resident of Costa Rica. Kelly and Rayna know everyone in the area and can take care of all your travel and guide needs. Each went way beyond to provide us with unique experiences at very reasonable prices. Check out the local Soda(restaurant) two blocks from the Las Vegas Restaurant across the street from the soccer field. Two gentlemen make great meals in the ultra clean place. Also Sonja at the grocery store was very helpful and made us many great goodies.

We stayed at this property in July, and had a wonderful, peaceful, friendly experience, both at the property and also in the sleepy little town of Sierpe. The locals were all so warm and friendly, and the homeowner was wonderful about seeing to it that we had everything we needed for this home away from home.
We sat on the lanai every morning and watched birds, huge iguanas, cute monkeys and a friendly neighborhood dog chasing and playing with crabs, as a lone crocodile swam lazily by our dock. In the evenings we saw macaw and monkeys.
The home itself was very comfortable and although we didnt think we would really need it, the air conditioner was a wonderful thing after all!
Thank you, Morton, for everything. We will definitely be back! Pura Vida! :)

Wonderful Week in Sierpe

This house was perfect for our group of 7. We stayed for 6 nights and loved the town of Sierpe, the boat trips we took straight from our dock and all of the relaxing days and nights spent at this beautiful home. This house is spacious with a great covered patio and large dock. The town of Sierpe is friendly and cute and just a 2 minute walk. Sierpe has several grocery stores, restaurants, a park, a pharmacy, a butcher shop and a DVD rental store. We were grateful to have the help of the concierge (Rayna) to get oriented and to arrange our exclusive trips to pick us up right from our dock and be on our schedule. We chose the Osa Peninsula to see the more natural side of Costa Rica and we were not disappointed. Amazing fish, birds, mammals and reptiles were seen from our dock as well as the trips to Corcovado, Cano Island and Santuario Silvestre de Osa.
