Casa Escondida is also close to Playa Garza (5 minute drive) which has a few nice restaurants, small grocery store and quiet beach for swimming, relaxing or chartering a boat for a deep sea fishing adventure.

Case Escondida is a great place to just hang out and relax for couples, friends, or families. Nearby there are many beautiful beaches to walk and explore, and activities such as yoga, surfing, tennis, stand up paddle board, beach bikes, and bird watching. Star watching by the pool is amazing!

Multi-week discounts are available.

Second Bedroom can be made up as 2 twins or 1 King.

A/C is in master bedroom only. All rooms have big overhead fans. The HOA for the community only allows one A/C unit per house unless a solar electric system is installed on the house to supplement power usage. At this time, addition of this system is cost prohibitive, which is why an A/C unit has not been added to the second bedroom.

Please note that electricity will be charged separately for stays of 30 or more days.

Note, there are stains on the sofa that may not show in the photos. We are in the process of replacing the cushions and have covered the sofa until the replacements are received. As a remote area, these items take more time that other areas. If you have any questions or concerns, please let us know prior to confirming your reservation.

LOCAL QUIRKS - IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THIS AREA OF COSTA RICA

While the infrastructure in Costa Rica is improving, it is highly likely that you will experience dust, bugs, mold, power, water and internet outages at some point during your stay. We consider it part of the fun of experiencing another country and culture. All of these issues are beyond the control of the homeowner and the management company and may come without advance notice. If having internet access is imperative during your visit, we recommend you research internet data plans available to you through your cellular provider. The Playa Guiones, Playa Pelada and surrounding areas of Nosara are rapidly growing communities. As such, much of the area will have noise from construction typically between the hours of 6am and 5pm. We do our best to update our properties impacted by construction, however, we are not always provided advance notice of a project. The septic system in the Nosara area does not permit flushing of toilet paper with few exceptions. If you have any questions at all, please contact us in advance of booking your stay as refunds and concessions will not be given for any of the reasons above as they are beyond the control of the homeowner and property manager. Thank you and we look forward to helping you step back in time, relax and enjoy the Pura Vida of Costa Rica.

IMPORTANT NOTICE

Keep doors and windows locked, and if applicable, security bars in place for sliding doors and windows when you are away from the property and at night. If you are unable to locate the bars for the sliding doors and windows, please contact us as soon as possible.

Do not leave any valuables or personal items out when you leave the house. This includes electronics, identification documents and anything else of apparent monetary value.

Do not leave valuables in your car when you are out and about.

Do not leave anything unattended on your front or back patios.

Always set the security alarm when you leave the property, even if it is for a short time.

While the presence of a security guard is not included with your rental, we would be happy to outsource a security guard for your stay. Please let us know during the initial booking process if you would like a hired guard and the hours you would like covered. Your safety is a top priority at Rent Nosara and we appreciate your effort in taking these steps to ensure an uneventful, memorable stay.
