Tim

Let me start by saying Tim is a fantastic host. Extremely helpful. The home itself is absolutely beautiful. The views are outstanding. We have stayed in several homes in Costa Rica, always in the mountains, and accessing this home was fairly easy. I still recommend a 4x4 but it wasn’t a challenge. The city of Nosara has all the amenities you’d need and the beach is less than ten mins from the house. We recommend stopping at K-Rae’s pub for lunch or dinner. It’s a two min drive and we thoroughly enjoyed it. We saw monkeys, coatis, iguanas and birds daily from the property. The home is 2 bedrooms, and the master bedroom was quite a bit warmer than the other rooms in the house. We found it difficult to sleep some of the nights without A/C, and even with the fan it was at least 85 degrees in that room some nights. We also missed having a pool on such hot days but luckily the beach was close by. Although we got international plans on our phones we couldn’t get cellular access at the house and the WiFi didn’t work 90% of the time. If only one person was online sometimes it worked very slowly. But certainly not enough to watch a movie in the evenings on Netflix or anything. There’s no TV either so be prepared to embrace nature and be completely off the grid for the duration of your stay. We definitely recommend the canopy tour (Zipline). Overall we had a nice stay in this beautiful home surrounded by nature.

Beautiful house with an amazing view and it’s own soundtrack - the howling monkeys. Perfect sunset and sunrise. We enjoyed a lot our stay at Tim’s place! This is the perfect place if you want to be away from the masses and enjoy the sound of nature. Still, be aware that this means it takes almost 25 min by car to the beach on a bumpy road we did not dare drive by night nor rain. And since there is no A/C it gets really hot during the day so we would only return to the house earliest at 4pm once it got a little cooler. All in all, a small price to pay for paradise, in our opinion!
