As others have said the photos don’t do justice to this incredible spot. The lush gardens make you feel immersed in the jungle. The beds are extremely comfortable and the air conditioning allowed us the amazing nights sleep. The location is very quiet and secure. We travelled with a 2 year old and the space was big enough for him to go crazy while still feeling very safe. The pool was a very comfortable temperature allowing us all to swim for hours at a time. Eric was very helpful from check in to check out recommending fun things to do for little kids. Even with heavy rains the first few days we found Casa Neen to be a great space to just hang out while waiting for the weather to break. We saw all manner of birds, lizards and monkeys from the house. The path to the beach was very convenient and we even saw dart frogs along the way. We would strongly recommend casa Neen to families looking for a clean, quiet and comfortable place to stay near Puerto Viejo

Can’t say enough positive things about this beautiful house. It’s unique in that it feels like you are outside and nature is part of the house. Perfectly decorated with a luxurious feel but homely touches. Restaurant within walking distance where you can also hire bikes for a 10 min cycle into the centre of town. Overall we did not want to leave!

The place was lovely and we had a great time there. Eric was communicative and very helpful with everything we could need. He even arranged laundry service and recommended a surf instructor. The driving service he recommended from the airport in San Jose was top notch. A couple things we didn’t expect that folks should be aware of: the living space is all open air except the bedrooms. This means you have to clean well each evening or if you go out. At night animals got into the compost and even opened a drawer with food in it. There are no shades on the upstairs bedroom windows so the sun pours in really early (privacy is not an issue). The house is a bit out of the way - lovely spot and feels very safe and residential but you can only walk to 2 restaurants which are a bit of a walk in the dark.

We just stayed the week at Eric’s place with our family of 6 and had the most relaxing time!! The house is absolutely gorgeous, even more so than in pictures and feels like you are immersed in nature! Eric was so responsive and gave us amazing recommendations including a kayaking tour, restaurants nearby and a chef at the house that was phenomenal and one of our favorite meals of the trip! We hope to be back soon!!!

It is hard to put into words how wonderful this "home away home" was for our family. It wasn't simply an airb&b rental, it was a whole experience and immersion into the pure vida culture and community. The location was fabulous - private and quiet without feeling too removed and just a walk, uber, or bike ride away from beautiful beaches, shops, restaurants and experiences. There's a lovely little market where we created some of our meals from because our kiddos loved the beauty and relaxation of our "home." We saw and heard lots of toucans, other native birds, hummingbirds, monkeys, frogs, sloths, sweet local dogs, lovely cats, native plants, flowers, trees, etc. We zip lined with Nativo, did the Caribeans chocolate tour, visited Punta uva and other beaches and kayaked and hiked an amazing farm. Every day was a treasure and so many wonderful memories were made! I wasn't sure how it would be possible, but the place IS more beautiful than the photos!! Pura Vida!

Rarely have we stayed at a home that was better than the photos but this was one! We loved it! It was perfect for our group of three couples.

La casa es hermosa, igual que lo que se ve en las fotos. Todo es de categoría. Eric es muy amable y atento. No duden en pedirle recomendaciones para visitar o cenar en la zona.

This place looked better than the photos. Pool area bit smaller but perfect size for us. We were able to get massages at the bnb by a local spa that Eric recommended. Beach isnt a private walk out entrance but close by with a gate. Would recommend!

Casa Neen was more beautiful than the photos. Great location- walk to the beach and a small market. Eric was a gracious host, always available for questions and recommendations. We hope to be back soon!
