The space Casa La Palapa Main House Perfect for a family vacation or a couples retreat due to its seclusion, this beautiful beachfront house has everything you need for your next tropical getaway. Its proximity to the beach and a short drive from a mangrove swamp means you'll often see animals such as raccoons and small crabs thriving, which is sure to delight nature enthusiasts. Tivives is a port and bay located in the canton of Esparza on the Southern Pacific coast of Costa Rica in Puntarenas Province about five miles south of Caldera, and less than an hour from San José. The port town has a great sportsfishing platform and a spectacular silver-colored beach. The beach features a point break that breaks to the left and right in a gnarly fashion at a river mouth over a sandy bottom. The area is under the protection of the government so it is largely undeveloped. Playa Herradura's beaches, Los Sueños Golf Club, and fishing opportunities are all a short drive from this home. The heart of Jacó is further, with the famous shops, restaurants, and nightlife of Pastor Diaz Avenue. This beach home features a private secure gate, beautiful gardens with palm trees, a full kitchen, and an open living room with high ceilings and a TV. Enjoy your days in the private outdoor pool and furnished patio just a few steps from your exclusive entrance to the lovely sandy beach of Tivives. This oasis is perfect for working from home. Enjoy high-speed WiFi through fiber-optic internet. THINGS TO KNOW This unit does not include the guest house. No dog(s) are welcome in this home.
