Penthouse in the jungle

On our secluded private 172 hectare Wildlife / Rain Forest Reserve 1200 meters above La Suiza, Turrialba, sits our 360 degree hexagonal off the Grid Glass House surrounded by peace, tranquility, birds and volcano views. Many guests in the past said they were so very happy just being in the glorious high ceiling house appraising majestic views of the Volcan Turrialba & valley, Pacuare, Chirripo, & Talamanca mountain ranges + our own rain forest canopy. Hike, Ride, Swim, Bird watch, Fish, Relax !

The space
Huge loft like elegant glass hexagon house with panoramic views situated at the end of a rural road with no power lines or vehicles passing through. We have wifi and solar panels for electricity. It can sleep 1 as it can sleep 10. Breakfast items are provided or we can make it for you if alerted with time. Should you want lunch or dinner, it can also be arranged as long as sufficient notice is given. We are excellent cooks! Early dinner or late lunch at $25 per person served family style. Your group will be the only ones in the main house level. Swimming at our private emerald pond surrounded by rain forest is an amazing experience that is just a 5 minute walk from the house! Gracious and fun horseback riding on our own well trained Pinto, Quarter horse or Costa Rica step horses and guided hikes on our reserve where you will not see other humans and fishing are available at a fair extra charge. Wonderful and exclusive Pacuare River white water rafting trips can be arranged with experienced guides and are highly recommended. The Pacuare River is among the 10 most cleanest rivers in the world. The days are warm, but the nights are chilly thus the fireplace. Hot water in both volcanic stone bathrooms and the 2 bedrooms on main level are very large with excellent views and bedding. If your group is 5 or more, you get full use of the downstairs with 3 beds and bathroom also with excellent views! No shoes in the house please! Only socks or slippers! ALL PHOTOS ON OUR LISTING ARE TAKEN WITHIN OUR PRIVATE RESERVE!

Guest access
You get the entire house's main level and are free to walk anywhere on the reserve and swim in our pristine emerald pond. We want you to feel comfortable, private and safe. Guided though hiking tours are recommended when going into rain forest or waterfall starting at $25 (short)to $55 (long) per person depending on where you want to go and how long of a hike. The long hike 4.5 hours through our beautiful narrow river canyon and waterfall includes a pack lunch and you can swim at base of this waterfall! Highly recommended if weather permits! We can give a reduced guided hike group rate for over 5 people. The same goes for horse back riding which starts at $65 per person depending on how long and where you want to ride. Picnic lunches can be arranged as well as fishing in our Tilapia pond. Rubber at least mid calf boots are recommended or waterproof hiking boots. My husband, staff and I are close by for anything you might need and to customize your stay.

Other things to note
1. We are at the end of a 6.5 km 4 wheel drive only road. It is best to come before 5 pm. We can arrange a 4 wheel drive taxi to pick you up if you do not have a 4 wheel drive vehicle in the small town of La Suiza at the bottom of our hill for $35. Please let us know with time if you need a 4 wheel taxi.
2. Basic breakfast items are provided but shop well for special cravings , coffee and tea, juice. Also of course shop for what you want for lunch and dinner, ice, beer, wine and bottled water. La Suiza has good butchers and vegetable stands on the main drag , besides what the 3 supermarkets offer. We have a gas powered refrigerator with a small freezer, but we provide a cooler for you too. The gas stove in kitchen is a 6 burner.
3. A typical delicious all organic meal can be prepared and served formally at an additional cost of $25 per person between 2 -6 ! You also have the option to prepare meals yourselves and we can provide a cooler to store your perishables.
