Dream Vacation
Publié le 11 sept. 2024 sur HomeAwayWe loved our time at Portasal Living. The villa was amazing, with lots of space and the pool was amazing for a dip every day.. From seeing toucans and parrots right before us to the amazing dinner by our private chef Desiree, it was such a great time. Heriberto was great in getting our tour and trip tickets for all the sights. They even greeted us with a Bottle of wine for our anniversary. They also stocked the fridge with cold beer for us to have when we arrived. We are already talking about a return trip!!!

PURA VIDA COSTA RICA

Great jungle house!!
Publié le 23 juin 2024 sur HomeAwayOverall we absolutely loved this home and the jungle experience it provided. The location was ideal for us as we wanted to be close to nature and in a smaller more local setting. (If you’re using Waze to locate the house you can enter “Calle Portalón” which is the road that dead ends at the neighborhood gate.) The AC and ice maker were luxuries that we appreciated. Heriberto was very attentive to our needs and gave us many recommendations for nearby activities. We always felt extremely safe in this home.
We were there at the end of June (rainy season) and typically the rain rolled in by 2-3pm and continued into the night. As long as you are up and out early then the rain is no big deal. There were bugs but we used the bug zappers and fan during movie nights to help. We considered the “visitors” part of the adventure of this house and had a lot of fun watching the geckos, seeing the giant Cane toad (DO NOT TOUCH!), toucans and iguana during our stay.
It is important to note that ALL family shared spaces are open air (not enclosed and not air conditioned). We stayed 7 nights and were pleased to find out that our stay came with two cleanings, which was wonderful. The rooms are NOT connected so I would NOT recommend this house for people with small children. We have 3 teenagers so it was fine.
Overall, our stay was AMAZING and this house played a huge role in making it magical!!

Location
Publié le 20 mars 2024 sur HomeAwayThe location was inaccurate it takes close to 5 hours to there from San Jose the people drive real slow so it takes a lot longer than three hours. The house and host r wonderful but it is a long way away from San Jose and u don’t just need a 4 wheel drive u need a high profile 4 wheel. If u like nature and quit which we do it is great will go back but now no what to expect.

Dear Phyllys,
Thank you for sharing your experience
Our property is located about 3 hours driving from San José, sometimes can be a little more depending of the route you take or inconveniences on the trip, but should no be more than 3,5 hours
We´re agreeing that is necessary a 4x4 car to access to the property, however, the road is in good condition and with any 4WD car you should not have any problems
The house is surrounded by the rainforest, there are many trails to explore and access to a clear river water with swimming holes and a waterfall, the beach is only 10 minutes driving. Perfect place to relax and have an unforgettable vacation.

AMAZING EXPERIENCE
Publié le 23 oct. 2023 sur HomeAwayJust WOW! The property and the management team are amazing. If you are looking for a "jungle" getaway then look no further. The house is immaculate and perfectly secluded near an amazing waterfall for swimming. We loved the pool and the outdoor seating areas to enjoy our daily encounter with all of the birds (especially the toucans). All of the amenities are wonderful and the team managing everything are so easy to communicate with. They were available anytime we needed them. We would all stay at Casa Monos Locos again on our next trip to Costa Rica.

Very private with great pool and sunny terrace
Publié le 25 janv. 2023 sur HomeAwayThe house is nice, located in the rainforest with beautiful sunsets. Everything was extremely clean, the cleaning lady is top! We were enjoying the pool and sunbathing at the terrace which is nice sunny. All parts of the house and garden are very private, you never see the neighbors. There is beautiful natural pool for swimming in the river and picnic area just next to the house. Communication with the property management was outstanding, they were always attentive and helpful. We had problems with electricity shortages (most of the times problem outside of the Portasol area), which was creating struggles for our remote work due to lost internet connection. Just another day we received a backup generator which was really amazing and appreciated. Unfortunately, we had bad luck with cicada invasion, they overpopulated just around the house and there was nothing we could do about it. The cicadas created noise of 82 decibels nonstop from 8:30am till 6pm. Then in the night we couldn't sit in the open living/dining area because they were flying around like crazy and bumping into us. I would ask in advance what is the current situation because it happens only during mating period just few weeks per year. Other than that, we had good time with my husband,

Dear Nicole we really appreciated your visit, Casa Monos Locos, as you mentioned, has very private surroundings, away from other houses which assures the guests good private time with family and friends, spacious outdoor areas with a beautiful pool and large. The guests of Casa Monos Locos also have the privilege of being a few steps from the private park and waterfall “La Cazuela”, which has beautiful green areas and awesome places to swim on the river. We also appreciate that you mentioned one of our most important goals that is to give you the best stay possible, offering the best cleaning service included in the rate and also a concierge service to help you in all the ways possible and always attentive with our guests, we are very proud of our Portasol Team. Your visit was during the cicada’s season, which happens for a couple weeks once a year, unfortunately we have no control over it, and this year they were extremely loud, we try to give the best service and help possible to overcome the season. We really hope you can have the opportunity to visit Portasol in the future, out of the cicada season.

Dream trip of a lifetime
Publié le 12 juill. 2022 sur HomeAwayI don't think words can do justice to this picturesque property in the rainforest. Not even photographs can capture the peaceful, tropical paradise in the treetops. The house is both elegant and practical. My mother and I spent 7 days at this beautiful retreat and swam every day in the private pool...even in the rain. Our favorite nearby town was Dominical, although The Montapala beach was very nice and just a 10 minute drive. Surprisingly, we didn't see any monkeys or tropical birds while at the house, (we heard birds) but we were able to go to Manuel Antonio, 40 minutes away and see them. If you are afraid of insects and lizards, this house isn't for you....but what do you expect in the Rainforest? The nearby waterfall and river were nothing short of breathtaking, and we always felt safe at Portasol. I will remember this adventure forever and always, and am so grateful for the opportunity!

Thanks so much for your kind review!
I have been to 53 countries but when I found Portasol I feel in love, the people, The nature, the food, and of course the waterfall.
I call it God's swimming pool.
All my friends ask when are we going to the waterfall?
Being only a seven minute walk we spend a lot of time there.
So glad you enjoyed your stay at our Home!
And remember Mi Casa Su Casa.
Until next time, Pura Vida.
Sincerely,
Barrett
