Wonderful Quiet Retreat
Our only regret is not having enough time to thoroughly enjoy the grounds and waterfalls. We were here for two nights, and I wish we had longer. It was a peaceful home that brought the outdoors inside, and Deborah was an amazing host. We will def be back the next time we are in Costa Rica :)

Wonderful experience
Fantastic property! The host is fantastic! They organized many activities for our family. They also were in contact almost every day to help out and answer questions. The on property waterfall was a hit with the kids and we went there several times. We saw tons of wildlife just outside, monkeys, frogs, birds, even wild horses! Definitely will want 4 wheel drive, this place is in the jungle.

Rainforest Retreat
This was the perfect place for our family. We wish we could have stayed and enjoyed the property longer. Our host was fantastic and attentive. Her employees were the best. We loved the hikes we did on the property and the swim in the waterfall. We also did a night tour with Jose' and had a great time seeing all the critters. (My daughter is a biology major so she could have explored this property for many more days.) It is a rustic feel in the middle of the rainforest which is what we wanted. We highly recommend it for those wanting to stay IN the rainforest.

Wonderful Vacation Experience
I fully enjoyed everything about this rental. It was perfect to enjoy nature and disconnect. I loved the openness of the house. Each morning I woke up to monkeys chattering in the distance and birds singing. I couldn't wait to make coffee and watch the hummingbirds. At night, we could see glowing beetles and could listen to the sounds of the jungle. The landscaping and flowers around the property were delightful to explore. Though the toucans remained elusive, we were treated to monkeys traveling outside the windows one afternoon. I do recommend an AWD vehicle but we managed just fine in an SUV without. We arranged all of our activities through Deborah. She was a godsend and I couldn't have planned my dream trip without her. She arranged for Cleo to come and cook for us one night which was amazing and we went out with Jose horseback riding and on a night tour. It was all so much fun and everyone in the family loved it. I do wish that I had more free time to explore around the property but that was my only regret. My sincere thanks for such a wonderful experience.

SO. MUCH. FUN. My two teenagers and I had such a fantastic week! The home was a little more remote than I expected but having a rental car made it super easy. Deborah was extremely helpful and responsive and did a great job facilitating our activities. Jose was a great steward on-site and helped us understand the local Flora and Fauna. I'd go back in a heartbeat!!!

Adventure
It was an adventure to stay in the jungle. We loved having a private river to hike 1/2 mile to anytime we wanted. Host Debra and Jose the guide were great and helped us book any excursions we needed. The falls were not going while we were there due to summer dry season. Home can get warm in the really hot humid days and some bugs in the home but nothing not expected staying in the jungle. We loved the privacy of the place! The whole family had a good time.

Beautiful property experiences
This was a beautiful, remote location offering 200 acres to explore and enjoy without the inconvenience of other tourists. Deborah went out of her way to ensure we only had the best experience. Jose, our property tour guide, naturalist, and an integral part of Deborah’s support staff, is a wealth of knowledge about the jungle and showed us plants and animals that we’ll never forget. The property has beautiful waterfalls, wonderful swimming hole, and flora and fauna that delivered a once in a lifetime experience. Deborah also arranged for us an exquisite in-home dinning experience with her local friend and chef, Cleo; this is something you definitely want to try. Although somewhat of a rustic place (no air conditioning), we enjoyed awakening every morning to the sounds of the wildlife. In short, the people associated with this property are some of the finest you can ever meet.

The place was so awesome ! In the middle of the thickest rain forest jungle. Big time privacy. Waterfalls and swimming holes on the property. Debra ( the owner) was so much help in arranging our excursions and shuttles. And José, the handyman and nature guru, was amazing on our tours. If sitting at resorts drinking all day by the pool is your thing, this is not for you. But if you love nature and adventure , I recommend it highly.

Incredible Costa Rica experience
We had an amazing time at the Light of Dawn! Complete Costa Rica experience…waking up to the birds and wildlife and jungle…hiking to a spectacular private waterfall and watching the rushing river from by the falls. Deborah was so kind and helpful and helped us with all of our excursion planning and made things so easy! No frills and older simple accommodations but have us an authentic experience of this part of Costa Rica. It is a hike to town on a rocky windy road for 1/2 of the time but it was worth it! The drive to and from the house was really part of the adventure and it was a beautiful drive. Jose took us on a fun Jungle night tour and we learned alot and loved it! Ziplining was also super fun! Thanks for the adventure and perfect experience for our family!

Show-stopping rainforest property with spacious home and waterfall!
We wholeheartedly recommend this beautiful home! 200 acres of private rainforest and a 60’ waterfall with swim hole all to ourselves. Our party of five (two adults, plus our kids ages 19, 17 and 16) stayed for five nights and had some fun wildlife sightings during that time, including a rare appearance of about a dozen spider monkeys. The house is spacious, with tons of fresh air and great views from the bedroom balconies. Most importantly, we had a fantastic host, Deborah, who went out of her way to help us out and make sure we were having a great stay. She and Jose led a daytime and night tour for us, and she also arranged a couple of local excursions. If you want to get away from the touristy areas and commune with nature, this place is perfect. I will say though, that this place may not be for everyone: - You will definitely need to rent a 4-wheel drive vehicle, as the 40-minute drive from Quepos has a steep curvy gravel road the last several miles. This meant that we didn’t venture out after dark to avoid driving at night. - Also, this house had everything we needed in terms of amenities, and everything worked well for us, and we loved all the character it had. If you are looking for a modern, high-end accommodation with all the latest bells and whistles, this may not be the place for you. This house does have a few quirks, like creeky wooden floors on the 2nd floor and no lighting in the laundry area (so if you do laundry at night, it's totally dark in there).

Unforgettable rain forest experience
We had a great stay at this home. We had a little bit of miscommunication about meeting up and also payments. This was our first VRBO experience, and I didn’t know the payments weren’t automatic, so our second payment wasn’t until our last day. I felt bad about that. We also had a delay on our end upon arrival and due to slow Internet, it was difficult to communicate that and receive messages back. Also, if I stayed at this property again, I think we would definitely get 4WD. I thought when we reserved our rental that it was AWD, but it wasn’t. The drive is doable without 4WD, but I imagine 4WD would make it a quicker drive. It took us 25 minutes from where the pavement ends to get in and out of rainforest, and from there, it was another 15 to 20 minutes to Quepos. Quite the drive, but it’s not like that wasn’t advertised. Deborah was very helpful in suggesting and arranging different activities for us. We did the catamaran tour with a waterslide and it was really fun. I wish that we had done the zip lining in the area. We ended up doing it about an hour and a half north at the Carrara adventure park and it just wasn’t as scenic (they also overbooked the groups-good lunch though!) We also did the morning hike with Jose and loved it. He was so knowledgeable about the plants in the area, which was fascinating, because it’s just so different from where we live.

We loved our stay at Light of Dawn
We were looking to get away from the crowds, but still be close enough to come down the mountain and visit Manual Antonio and other nearby activities. Deborah’s place was magic! She was delightful! There to answer our questions if we needed her, but she gave us our privacy. Up in the hills, no neighbors, surrounded by jungle and wildlife, with our own private waterfall? Yes please! Jose was our night guide and showed us how to get to the waterfall - he was the best! Cleo and her family helped with meals and were a big part of our family feeling welcome here. This was a memory making experience and we are so grateful we found Light of Dawn! (PS - so glad we had a rental suv with 4x4, it was an adventure getting to the house, but nothing we couldn’t handle.)

An incredible find that we will be sure to repeat
This was the highlight of our entire 9-day vacation in CR. We cannot say enough positive things about the entire experience. My whole family feels lucky beyond words to have stumbled upon this treasure. Light of Dawn felt like we were cheating the entire CR experience because everything we wanted out of our trip was RIGHT HERE. Getting to the property is a little adventure and I never once went up or down the mountain without a giant smile on my face. You could get up there in a little sedan, but it was WAY more fun in our rented Land Cruiser. The property itself can easily be described as a gem. It's a few hundred acres of rainforest, with breathtaking views and a private waterfall that you'll continually visit during your stay. Other tourists pay money to go see waterfalls like this at various national parks but you have private and immediate access to this for your entire stay. I just deleted 2 paragraphs of rave review so that I could fit in my final thought. Jose is a treasure. He is the local guide/ groundskeeper/expert. Just picture a Costa Rican Crocodile Dundee and you get Jose. We went on two tours of Light of Dawn with Jose and all 5 of the members in my family say that he was the best part of our entire trip. We went sailing, ziplining, snorkeling, saw chocolate and coffee tours, sat in hot springs, and later stayed at a posh resort. But touring the jungle with Jose tops them all. LoD brought us to CR, but Jose's tours are what will bring us back.

Great House, Great Location, Great Hosts
We loved our stay at the Light of Dawn house. Deborah was great to work with and the tour of the property with Jose was a highlight of our trip. Deborah also offered a treasure hunting tour for our family, which everyone (from 4-17) loved. We enjoyed exploring the property during the day and sitting and watching the thunderstorms roll over the rainforest in the evenings. One of our kids shed tears when it was time to leave the waterfall for the last time. We have cherished memories of this property and the nearby towns of Villa Nueva and Naranjito. They were the places in Costa Rica where we felt we were really able to connect with people; from Deborah and Jose, to the owners of the Panaderia and the Soda down the road. We would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for something off the beaten path and seeking a unique and authentic experience.

Get away from it all
If you want to get away from it all - this is your place! This home allows you to connect with nature with an open air concept. It is nestled up in the rainforest about a 40 minute drive from Quepos on an unpaved road (recommend a 4WD). The owners are absolutely gracious and provided fresh fruit and eggs. The highlight of the trip was the nature walk and swim at the private waterfall!

Great Get Away
For those wanting seclusion, this is the place for you. It's a beautiful property in the heart of the rain forest. The owners, Peter and Deborah made the stay very pleasant and are wonderful, friendly people. We did the "All Inclusive." Chef Cleo prepared wonderful meals, fresh fruit juices, appetizers and very creative deserts. There was so much tasty food, that you won't go hungry. We took 4 wonderful tours and Peter gave us a tour of the property and waterfall with plunge pool. Even though we had a driver, Pelusa couldn't speak much English nor us Spanish, but we got along great. Because the property is far from any restaurants and the town of Quepos, you might want to rent a car to do your own exploring. The last 4-km up to the house is on a rough, gravel road , so you might want to rent a 4-wheel drive. Beware, there's no air conditioning, but there are ceiling and floor fans which help with the warm, humid nights. We stayed here between April 19-26, which is just a the beginning of the rainy season, so there was usually and afternoon shower. We had an enjoyable time and hope to be back in future.

I can't say enough amazing things about this place! Pete and Deb become friends and make your experience (not just a stay) as seemless as possible. We stayed a few different places in the week we were in CR and nothing topped this. The home is open and beautiful, the property is breathtaking, and the time the hosts took to make our memories unforgettable, is so rare and appreciated.

STAY HERE!!! YOU won't regret it!! IT is an EXPERIENCE of a lifetime!
This house is everything we wanted in our traditional Costa Rica rainforest experience. This family compound is so close to everything (25 to Quepos) but remote enough that your experience is not spoiled by any tourist crowds/lots of locals or noises other than the amazing sounds of rainforest animals and creatures :) WE woke up to these incredible sounds of the jungle.. birds we could only dream of hearing back home...Deborah and Peter made this rental more of an experience than a rental home. They arranged every experience for us so my vacation was pretty simple. We went sport fishing in Quepos (from this awesome Marina ) with Franklin( who was AMAZING (caught a 40lb mahi mahi that Cleo ( a local AMAZING chef) cooked for us the next night. We also went white water rafting with Felipe ( A MUST DO) for everyone in the family (over 12 years of age)... the river was incredible and SO much fun. Their night jungle guide Jose was fabulous and we saw creatures I didn't know existed. A cute chameleon was icing on the cake!! The house and property are SO unique and fun. There is an incredible water fall and river on the 200+ acre estate. The house to me was my Everything. From the authentic dreamy floors and wood ceilings, to wooden rocking chairs .... I can't say how laid back and relaxing it was. We saw humming birds constantly eating from the lush foliage and incredible flowers. WE saw and heard macaws & toucans fly by. I will say, If you are fluffy and need to stay in the Ritz, this place isn't for you. We love high end hotels too but this experience is dreamy beyond words and NOT that boring! RUN by two OLD souls, you will get an amazing experience for you, your kids and your picture album! It has adventure and ZEN written all over it! I should also mention that the beds are super comfortable and the house is clean and over stocked! I do have two negative comments... One, I didn't stay long enough; Two nights was NOT enough. Also this site won't let me upload photos, bc we have SO many and they need to be shared! We will be back. Thank you Deb&Pete and all their local helpers and connections for giving our family a vacation we will never forget!
