Beautiful (if a bit noisy)

We spent a beautiful week here in February. Trisha was very helpful with the booking and plans and Jorge did anything he could to help ensure we had a great time (including bringing us some delicious fresh tuna!).
As others have said, the house is nearly new, with beautiful views, birds, iguanas, sweet Osa (their Golden Retriever we fell in love with) and private pool to complete the experience.
There is as much or as little to do in the area, with a few great restaurants in town as well. We took this trip to chill out, so spent most of our time walking on the beach and laying low. Which brings me to the one potential short-coming. The house sits up on a hill in a "rural" location, but there are neighbors. And, it should be known, that most neighbors have chickens and dogs. Unfortunately, the roosters haven't learned to only signal the sunrise, and can be heard (along with dog barking) morning, noon, and night. Jorge actually brought us earplugs - which we really appreciated.
So, if you're looking for quiet solitude, this may not be the place for you. If you want a beautiful spot with great views, a pool, terrific hosts and a base to explore from, it could be perfect.

Owner's Response: So sorry to hear about the noise. We spoke with the neighbor about the dog, which was just tied to a tree and they have given it away to a more loving family (for what it's worth!)
