About this house rental

Los Cedros Garden House was built with the goal of creating an open and elegant space that connects living with the many plants and animals found in this special part of the world. It is the perfect place to relax and enjoy the beauty of nature around you. This custom-designed holiday home looks into the high branches of several huge mango trees where many monkeys come to feed. The extensive gardens contain an abundance of flowering shrubs and other fruiting trees that attract many tropical birds (especially hummingbirds) and lizards. Located between the villages of Montezuma and Cabuya, the house is in a great location with Los Cedros beach being a 3 min walk from the house and two very special rivers (Rio Cedros and Rio Lojas) being nearby too.
There are many animals you will be able to spot around the house during your stay. During different seasons of the year, we get to see different beautiful creatures cross through the property. During mango season there are many fruits on the trees and you get to see mother monkeys carrying their infants on their backs or stomachs as they jump from tree to tree together. There are also many sightings of Scarlet Macaws in the area, they often come and sit on the beach almond trees and have their lunch, they always come in pairs, as they mate for life. On the ground, you will be able to see many small mammals and cute creatures walking around, but you will also be able to spot a strange dinosaur dragon-looking animal called an Iguana, these creatures are beautiful and harmless, just please consider their (and all animals) personal space. There is much to see while lounging in the pool or on the decks of the house - we call it Nature Television!

The space
Designed by Suner Villarta, this newly built ‘floating house’ represents a beautiful modern take on typical Costa Rican beach houses. The house was built with the utmost comfort and elegance in mind. With its big open spaces looking out into a breathtaking garden, it combines luxury and finding peace and comfort in nature. This two-story house is ideal for a couple in our upstairs suite where you will be able to enjoy an incredible view into an abundant garden, here is where you will spot all our animal friends. With a smaller bedroom, a fully equipped kitchen, a second bathroom, and another big open space balcony downstairs, it is the perfect place to enjoy the gorgeous infinity edge pool and rancho outside.

This house is equipped with A/C in both bedrooms, indoor and outdoor ceiling fans, unlimited wifi, a washer and dryer, equipment for outside activities, comfortable furniture, and luxurious floor and ceiling lighting around the house.

The house has a metal gate at the entrance and a covered parking garage for up to 2 cars.

Guest access
For our guests, the whole property will be accessible, and you will be able to greatly enjoy our garden and the surroundings of the house. Our gardener lives in a small house with his family across from the entrance to the house and between him and our immediate neighbors, you will find it to be a very safe and welcoming place to enjoy your holiday.

This probably was my favorite VRBO rental ever. The location is great for exploring the southern tip of the Nicoya Peninsula. and the house was such a great place to relax. It basically consists of two rooms: a kitchen (and bathroom) on the first floor and a bedroom (and bathroom) on the upper (second) floor. Both floors have large decks with hammocks and chairs overlooking the pool area. The upper deck is a great place to look for monkeys (I saw howlers and capuchin) and birds. For the most part, the property is totally private; there are houses nearby, but it's difficult to see them (and for them to see you). I really hope I can come back here someday.

Communication with the host was excellent despite her being in Europe when we were there, but that didnt matter at all. She had a really nice and knowledgeable, trustworthy man there ro greet us and make us accustomed to the house which was off the chain AMAZING! The lighting, the air conditioning, the pool, the bathrooms the Bluetooth connected projector in the main bedroom with the remote control roll down shades all around the home was spectacular. The beds were comfortable and spacious. The house is surrounded by several families of monkeys who are active all day. We could watch them carry their young, and the juveniles playing with each other from the deck. Just amazing. I loved this place so very much, and never wanted to leave. Its also surprisingly affordable, and only cost us $170 USD/night. Thanknyou so so so much for an unforgettable trip. Russell

This is a beautiful property with amazing architecture where modern design meets rustic allure. The house is a glass house with expansive views of the property. The infinity pool is huge and we enjoyed morning and evening swims every day. The outdoor spaces are comfortable, beautiful and designed for easy living as well as monkey viewing. The unadvertised bonus is a huge screen and projector in the bedroom where we could watch movies at night. And the bed was the best we've slept in!! We were leary of renting this place because it looked too good to be true and there were no reviews at the time when we booked. But we are seriously happy that we got to experience this lovely floating house. We enjoyed every minute of our stay there and will rent it again if we ever return to the area. Lynn was a gracious and responsive house manager. The neighbors who care for the house did a great job. We felt very safe there and we also enjoyed the daily visits from their two friendly well-behaved dogs.

If you're thinking about staying here then do it. The house is gorgeous and secluded but only 10 minutes by car away from Montezuma. The property owner Lynn is absolutely amazing. She knows everything about the area and can tell you where to eat, what tours to book and what beaches to check out. Her advice made our trip so much better! My wife was messaging her on WhatsApp all week and was constantly marveling at how helpful and kind Lynn was. As a heads up,the listing location is not accurate, The house is a <5 minute walk to the Los Cedros beach between Cabuya and Montezuma, not in Santa Fe.
