If you enjoy a marina environment or want to experience the romance of the boat bum life, you'll love this elegant and well appointed novelty lodging. Guest access This prime location between the calm Golfito bay anchorage and the pristine wilderness of the protected rain forest reserve will be a highlight of your holidays in Costa Rica. The houseboat is "all yours". Conveniently centered between Banana Bay Marina and Fish Hook Marina just 2 kilometers to the Duty Free shopping area, you have easy access to the best of Golfito. Other things to note A marina environment can be quite active with boats of tourists or offshore residents coming and going. Our patios are open to social activity during typical hours so guests should be open to the lifestyle. Local charter captains are welcome to pick up directly at your cabinside decks. Local taxi boats can pick up at the houseboat if you'd like to go on a tour or explore the shores of the Golfo Dulce, the quaint coastline community and estuaries. Happy hours and international menus next door on either side offer great waterfront dining. A dozen options from sea food to local fare are in walking distance. Local groceries and cantinas are all in walking distance. Our BBQ galley on the deck is available to guests by request. Buses and flights in and out daily. Economical Taxis pass by 24 hours a day. Parking available on the road or driveway in front of the property. If enthusiastic mutts and a bit of "dog love" isn't agreeable then this may not be a good match. Although the houseboat offers gated decks and a dog free zone, it's only fair to note we do enjoy the company of 3 small rescue dogs living up in our clubhouse areas. Out of respect for guests it is our intention that the dogs do not enter or "hang out" at the houseboat. But if you allow it, they will always thrill at the opportunity. There is a gate to the houseboat deck and they've learned it's "off limits" but that won't stop them if they think you're open to their visit. They will bark... at things going by on the street or waterside and they'll be "guarding" with their stern barks when they think it's warranted. They're great dogs and a warm part of the scene that most of our guests embrace along with the entire experience. But some renters prefer dog free environments so I felt it worth noting.... We are not that.
