Casa Adobe is the perfect oceanside home (150-meter walk) for families (up to 8 can sleep comfortably) looking for a convenient location and private setting, with easy access to the center of Puerto Jimenez (a 3-minute car ride) and many other nearby beach and rainforest activities. The quiet, beachfront neighborhood is a popular spot to enjoy sunset and sunrise paddles up the Platanares River mangrove. Guests always enjoy lounging by the pool after their busy and adventure filled days. Casa Adobe is a secure, comfortable, unique home just 150m from the beach. It offers 3 full baths, 3 bedrooms, an additional sleeping loft area, a spacious kitchen, bar, dining area, and living room, as well as a large front porch, two other quiet balcony sitting areas, and an outdoor pool (shared with other smaller rental villas on the property). Multiple couples and/or family members can enjoy their time together in the many common areas or enjoy their privacy and comfort in their own rooms and patios. Ceiling fans and/or standing fans create a comfortable indoor climate. Two bedrooms have air conditioning for an even more comfortable tropical sleeping experience. An outdoor shower, tropical landscaping, and seating area offer outdoor comforts and enjoyment. Parking is available on-site. Casa Adobe adjoins two other villas on our 1/2 acre property. They are also available to rent and, together, offer an ideal setting and experience for a larger group (up to 16 people).
