Magical Stay!
The home was exactly as described. Seven of us made the trip to the Jade House and not one of us was disappointed. The area the house is located in is beyond magnificent. We liked the area so much that we started looking into buying property. Our stay was made even more enjoyable with the cooking of the maids and Chef Vanessa! We would live to stay here again if the property became available again or at any of Heathers future projects!

Look No Further
Our extended family of 16 (8 adults, 8 teens) rented the Jade House for a week @ the end of July 2012. After a very extensive search of properties, we chose Jade House- and were thrilled with our choice. The home is gorgeous with stunning views. You are safe & secure in this location. Heather & hubby were wonderful to work with - responded quickly to questions, flexible, great resource for travel/ all things CR , booking tours, etc. We have rented vacation properties all over the US with good result - and this rental experience was right at the top. We wouldn't hesitate to rent from this family again. Our group, ages 13-75 had a blast on the excursions recommended by Heather - zip lining, horseback riding to the falls and rafting. Driving up & down gravel road to the house is its own excursion @ first- bring a 4x4 and nerves of steel - you can do it! Jolly Roger is conveniently located for drinks and food - it's a short walk from the house. We loved La Fogata in Uvita and Tortilla Flats in Dominical - great food, fun atmosphere. Many thanks to all for such a memorable family trip!

A True Retreat!!!
So glad we finally made it to Costa Rica after trying for 3 years! It was worth the wait. Our group of 11 stayed in the Jade House and it was amazing! The house is perfectly placed in the jungle.With an ocean view over the tree tops. Howler monkeys, white faced monkeys, a sloth and toucans visted the house daily. We travel alot and seen many tropical places. We wanted something different this time. We are so glad we chose the Rain Forrest this time!!! If we do ever return to Costa Rica, it WILL definally be back to this area. Heather and Derrick were so helpful with booking our deep sea fishing, white water raft, atv, and canyoning. Even pointing out places to eat. The pizza place is SPECTACULAR! I almost backed out of the rafting cause of the fear of crocodiles. I'm so very glad I didn't. We never seen ANY in the river we went to. Heather helped get us a shuttle to and from the airport. Then we rented both of her vehicles which made it so convenient with no rental returns. You diffentaly need 4x4's to get up the hill to the house. Usually we are tired and ready to get back home but this was one vacation we wished we could stay longer!! Hopefully we get to return soon.

Trip of a lifetime!
Just got back from my stay at The Jade House. It was magnificent, better than I dreamed for me and everyone that went. We had 8 adults and one infant so our needs were a little different but Heather and Derrick did not fail. I have to honestly say that they will do their very best to deliver a most memorable vacation if you are staying at their place. As for the house, photos say it all of it's beauty, it was unreal to wake up to those views, the home is so carefully thought out and provides everything you need and more. Heathers staff is wonderful, they make killer guacamole with plantain chips, and ceviche. They also prepared a lovely dinner for us that was excellent. Couldn't be happier with how it went.

UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!!
I don't even know where to begin. Our entire stay in Costa Rica was incredible. The Jade house was top notch BEAUTIFUL! The home was very warm and inviting. The open air concept is so different for us from Wisconsin and we loved it!! We had a few interesting creatures that tried to venture in to the house after dark, that was fun and interesting! No Mosquitos YEAH!!! The house has everything that you need for your stay in Costa Rica including an exciting trek up the hill to the house!!
Technical aspects of the house that people want to know...The home is very spacious and we had plenty of room for the 6 couples that stayed there. We felt very safe and welcome by the owners Heather and Derik. We were fortunate to have a friend that lives there in Dominical to help us explore and adventure. Heather and Derik are wonderful and will help with anything. The pools and the view are spectacular! The beds were very comfortable and they have air in the bedrooms, if you want it. We enjoyed the windows open to hear all of the wonderful sounds of the Jungle. The maid service was great and made us some of the best Pico I have ever had!!! The Bar area was sweet, we always had ice and blended up some delicious fresh fruit cocktails:) The house is close to many beaches and the downtown area that is great! Very quaint and lovely. I would recommend the Jade over and over!!
We fished, Kayaked (Pineapple Kayak Tours), Zip lined, Rode horses to the falls, Surfed, beached, went to the local festival and relaxed some too!
The people that we met were Great and we hope to stay in touch!
Vanessa, the Chef we hired to do 3 meals was AMAZING! She is a wonderful person who happens to be a very talented cook. She made us feel at home with her wonderful dishes. She set up the meals and cleaned everything up for us, I can't say enough how great it was to have her!! Try the Tres Leche, I guarantee you won't be disappointed!!
I can't forget to say something about the Jolly Roger, the open air bar right near the house. Fun Fun Fun! We had great food and very cold drinks!! The Wings were great as well as the pizzas. The Habanero was Hot Hot Hot:)
Our Trip to Costa Rica was a trip of a lifetime. We are forever grateful to the people that we met that made our trip what it was........WONDERFUL!

PERFECT venue for our wedding week!
My now husband and I rented the Jade House for a week a couple weeks ago and the place is FANTASTIC! We had a group of 38 that travelled from California, Chicago, Hawaii and Mexico for our wedding at the Jade House. The place was big enough for everyone to relax and have a fun time. Heather and Derrick were very accommodating. They have contacts for just about everything, pedicures, legal stuff, DJ, fishing, ziplining, you name it they know who to get in contact with. We do have a few suggestions, you will NEED to rent a 4x4 vehicle to get up to the House. You will need to buy some food before you get to the house specially if you are arriving at night like we did. Please check out Jolly Roger bar they have these fantastic bollywood wings-its only a short walk away from the Jade house. I would recommed the Jade House to anyone that loves luxury, enjoys spectacular views and that can perform a cannon ball in 3 pools.

Most Relaxing and Beautiful Vacation Spot Ever!
Where do I start? From the moment my family and I arrived, we were overwhelmed by the house. The furnishings and architecture are fantastic and the views are breathtaking. The pools are the perfect temperature and were so relaxing - we probably spent the most time enjoying the view in the center pool. (Yes - center. There are 3!) All of the bedrooms are equally comfortable and spacious - it was nice to not have to fight over the best room! I also thoroughly enjoyed all of the exotic flowers and creatures. It truly made us feel like we were in the middle of the jungle.
Once we had finally accepted that this was actually our home for a week, we were eager to check out what Costa Rica had to offer. Heather and Derek were so incredibly helpful. We told them what we were hoping to do and they made it happen. Throughout the week, Heather and Derek arranged for surf lessons, deep-sea fishing, a zipline tour, massages, pedicures, and in-house cooking. If you're at all interested in fishing or just taking in the views of the Pacific, I highly recommend the deep-sea fishing with Mario. Just bring plenty of water and sunscreen! On top of catching nearly a dozen huge fish, we saw monkeys, dolphins, sea turtles, humpback whales, and more. It was an amazing experience, plus the fish that we caught was the best fish I've ever tasted. Speaking of food, Heather and Derek arranged for the housekeepers to cook us an authentic Costa Rican meal that was spectacular. They made fried plantains, arroz con pollo, guacamole, pico de gallo, and black bean dip. They made way too much too, so we had plenty of delicious leftovers for the rest of the week.
One thing that did take some getting used to was going up and down the hill to the house. However, the views at the top of the hill make it all worth it! Heather and Derek have a car available to rent that made our trips much easier. Also, there is a good, casual restaurant a bit down the hill - we drove to it but it is certainly walkable.
My sisters and I did an excessive amount of research in order to find a great place to stay in Costa Rica, and we all agreed at the end of the trip that we had found the perfect house. What an amazing vacation!

The Jade House
Heather and her crew were amazingly helpful! The Jade House was nothing short of extraordinary and our hostess ranked 6 STARS for her excellent service! That goes for her husband Derick too! They helped with surfing lessons for my son and his friends, arranged for a Zip-lining trip which thrilled my husband Mike, set-up a fishing charter and even arranged for some wild brush clearing on our lot in Uvita. That kind of service is rare and speaks to the heart of this family. In terms of the house, the pictures speak for themselves but don't forget the state-of-the-art outdoor stereo system and ambient lighting. It's pretty cool swimming to Van Morrison at moonlight. Joyful memories for a lifetime!

we miss it already!
my husband, friends, and i cannot even begin to explain how amazing our experience was in this beautiful home. derek and heather were more than accommodating throughout our entire trip. the pictures do not do this house justice. when we walked into the house all 10 of us were completely speechless, and overcome with excitement. to start with, the view is breathtaking, something none of us will forget. the interior of the house is gorgeous, and there is everything you could possibly need while staying there.
the maids were in and out of the house almost everyday, keeping the house looking beautiful. one of them even came to cook for us the last two nights of our stay. i personally can tell you that her food was better than most restaurants i have been to. we highly suggest (if you feel like treating yourselves) that you have her cook for your group.
each one of us learned to appreciate something new on this trip. and i think many of us were able to truly relax for the first time in months, or even years. we cannot thank derek and heather enough, along with the staff who kept the house running smoothly. hopefully one day we will be back!
