About Your Hosts
We are the Santerre family. Our three grown children have traveled the world with us, including destinations as unusual as Sri Lanka and Namibia.
We have been traveling with Airbnb since the platform’s early days. We are not hotel people; we prefer staying with locals and experiencing destinations as though we truly live there. For us, Airbnb is an adventure that takes us out of our daily routine and comfort zone.
Rather than a hotel experience, we want you to feel as though you are staying in the home of friends who have lent you their dream house. Casa Cielo is filled with hospitality, love, and the intention of helping you enjoy an authentic Costa Rican experience.
Pura vida means living in harmony with nature, including the local flora, fauna, and occasional insects. Our home is welcoming and bright. If you share these values, you are more than welcome, and we will be happy to count you among our friends.

House is Fantastic. Great views, amazing pool, great layout and recent renovation is top notch. Stocked with everything you need for your stay. Close drive to Playa Flamingo, Playa Conchal and other beaches. Multiple good restaurants, and a decent grocery store near by. The whole family loved our stay at Casa Cielo.

Pura Vida literally means “Pure Life,” but in Costa Rica it’s a way of life—and Casa Cielo embodies it perfectly. From the amazing views and thoughtful design, unbeatable location, every detail feels effortlessly Pura Vida. This is the rare vacation rental offering space, privacy, and value. With a car, you’re just 20–25 minutes from incredible beaches, snorkeling, sailing, hiking, and great local restaurants. A special nod to Nico in Guest Services. After our flight was delayed, we arrived late at night, and he was incredibly responsive, guiding us to the house without a hitch. We’d return in a heartbeat.

This place was absolutely charming! It felt so cozy and comfortable, and the views took our breath away. The outdoor shower and pool were perfect for refreshing ourselves after long, hot days at the beach and exciting adventures. We truly felt like we belonged, especially with the adorable resident cat who stopped by every evening when we sat outside. We can't wait to come back!
