What a peaceful location.  The views were spectacular.  The home was well appointed and the beds, so comfy!!

I cannot rave enough about this incredible place!!! the land, the view, the peace and quiet, the nature, and abundance of birds and butterflies all around, fruit trees, and the cutest dog Bella. The interior was spacious and had everything we needed and more. the family that takes care of the property are amazing, Henry even cooked me vegitarian dinners for a few nights so that I can have some quiet time being catered to while I relaxed. my favorite thing was waking up to the birds and drinking my coffee and doing yoga outside. Eddie was super amazing in taking care of all our needs and responding super quick. we loved this place so much we extended an extra week. would highly recommend and would definitely be coming back again.

Great place to stay.    won't find better around.

PEACEFUL, INSANE view, and RELAXING porch for family time! We loved our stay! And we were surprised at how the home was twice as nice as we expected! It was the perfect home for family time, rocking on the porch, listening to birds, walking through the banana grove, cooking dinner, and getting great sleep! The beds were extra comfy and I took so many pictures of the view to try to remember it forever.  
The nights were a little warm and noisy with birds and barking, but we asked for a few fans and that helped add white noise.  Henry, next door gave us bananas and fans and it was nice to know he was there if we had any issues. 
Be aware that the drive up to the house is straight up and pretty steep, so do not stop midway. Just push through and go. The specific directions from Eddie are important to follow as the directions from the listing will take you to the wrong location.  Bring paper towels and laundry detergent - other than that, the place is fully stocked!!  LOVED this Airbnb!

Stayed at Eddie's mountain cabin over Christmas with my family. The cabin is very cozy, has an incredible view, well stocked kitchen (made a turkey dinner and had all the utensils needed), paved drive up to the cabin and comfortable bedrooms. I look forward to a return visit!

Everything about our stay was great! Eddie as the host, and Henry (and Rosie and Sofia) the on-site caretaker exceeded all expectations. The house is very clean, well maintained and well equipped. We really appreciated the attention to even the smallest of details like providing shampoo/conditioner/body wash/soap, beach towels, flashlight. Any small concerns were addressed immediately, going above and beyond. All that said, personally, our favorite part of the property is the beautiful, lovable, “self-appointed guard dog,” Bella. We hope to return soon!

Beautiful spot and friendly care keeper next store.Any problem was taking care of quickly.

Eddie’s place is a real gem. Incredible privacy and views, well appointed and comfortable home. The kitchen comes very well equipped and the beds are comfortable. Small details make his place extra wonderful. High quality linens, blankets, beautifully manicured garden and lawn. Henry, the groundskeeper is lovely. My children had so much fun playing hide and seek on the generous property and I loved waking up before sunrise, sitting on the deck and listening to a million birds beautifully singing through day break. My kids said they loved the home and want to come back!!

The grounds are perfectly manicured and the house well maintained. Very comfortable with a beautiful view. A definite repeat.

Probably our best Air B& B selection in Costa Rica

This is a lovely peaceful,  comfortable house in the mountains. The facilities are good, kitchen well-equipped. Henry on hand with local knowledge is a bonus and Bella was very sweet. Kitchen water pressure a little low and electricity dropped off when doing laundry, but patience wasn't difficult in such a beautiful place. The house is large and feels airy, pleasantly warm in the day and cool at night, air con not required. 4 x 4 beneficial but not essential. Internet connection fast and reliable. Stayed for a week but would have loved to stay longer.

There aren’t enough superlatives to describe this beautiful location.  The home, the view, the close by natural wonders, all were so memorable.  I would definitely return to Eddie’s place next visit to southern Costa Rica.

Thanks for your stay, you’re always welcome back and if there is anything I can ever help with if you travel here again, don’t hesitate to ask.

Wonderful house, peaceful area and perfect location. I stayed here with my family and we had a great time, also used this place as a base to visit Chirripó on a daily hike. Eddie was always responsive and Henry very helpful whenever we needed anything. Planning to go back again for sure.

We had a great stay. The accomadation was very comfortable and as descibed. There is a caretaker, Henry,  who stays on the grounds. He was very helpful and made sure we had everything we needed. If you want to get a little off the beaten (tourist) track then this a great location. The view was beautiful when we arrived and somehow got more and more captivating as our stay progressed, clouds passed by, the city beneath lit up at night and the birds didn't stop doing bird stuff... all in all a wonderful place. Highly recommended.

Nice spacious home with beautiful views. I was very impressed with the massive grounds being so well manicured.   Really enjoyed the large, well furnished deck.  The view at night was spectacular looking down at the city lights and of course in daylight was even more beautiful of the mountains and valleys.   The large house is very nice and well appointed and the kitchen is great as well.  Eddie and Henry are great hosts.  We hope to return soon.

Hope to have you back. Come for the dawgs and longhorns game and we will get out and have some fun.

Very beautiful house in the mountains of Pérez Zeledon, spacious and well equipped

Casa muy bella en las montañas de Pérez Zeledon, amplia y bien equipada

Great place..  easy to find..highly recommend on all.levels.

This entire property is beautiful. Stunning views in all directions during the day, then the entire valley lights up at night. The best bed I slept in anywhere in Costa Rica. It is a very quiet and comfortable property. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you need for meals, they even have a smoker available. Henry the caretaker was great, no problem with late check-in. There are 5 hectares to enjoy, I walked everything I even found a small waterfall. It is approximately one kilometer from the path to climb the mountain to the Cruz de Mirravalles, and very close to the biological center of Quebradas. I loved my stay and hope to return some day.

A tremendous spot - we rented it for 2 months and could not have been happier. Eddie was great, and Henry (who lives on the property) was equally great. Increduble views, cool mornings and evenings, dependenble utilities, and very comfortable. Would highly recommend.

What a charming mountain home!  Eddie and Henry went out of their way to take great care of us. Very responsive and helpful. The home is very comfortable and well equipped with anything you need. The property is well maintained and nice to walk around. The views are amazing - watching sunsets from the covered patio or watching the city lights twinkle in the valley below.  This is a great place to go, relax, unwind, and get back to nature.

Great place on a wonderful farm! Highly recommend this place to spend a few days away either for work or vacation. The house was very complete and the host was very friendly.

Excelente alojamiento en una finca maravillosa! Muy recomendable este lugar para pasar unos días ya sea por trabajo o vacaciones. La casa muy completa y el anfitrión muy simpático.

Beautiful finca with fantastic views! An inviting retreat that is clean, modern, fully equipped and amazingly comfortable. Our expectations surpassed with Eddie making sure our stay was enjoyable. Also, Henry the property caretaker is nearby for any needs or questions. For us, our favorite part was starting the morning with a cup of coffee sitting on the deck enjoying all the sounds of nature and amazing views before beginning our day with new adventures. There is much to explore, see and do in the surrounding areas; restaurants and shopping are conveniently located, yet having a vehicle is necessary. At the end of the day, back on the finca, once again enjoying all the amenities of the property, we were back out on the deck, relaxing and taking in more spectacular views of the sunset as the city below lit up! If you want a peaceful, relaxing getaway this is the place to be. Highly recommend!

We had a very enjoyable stay at this beautiful mountain retreat. It is so comfortable and welcoming with many special touches that we did not want to leave!  The majestic view of the mountains and the city of San Isidro below made relaxing on the porch in the rocking chairs the highlight of our mornings, afternoon and evenings.  The property is beautiful! The many birds, amazing sunset and city lights  made our meals on the porch very pleasant.  There is a nice BM grocery store on the main highway in the city and several quaint restaurants with good food on the mountain. There are so many things to see and do in the surrounding area we can’t wait to go back to explore more of this amazing part of CR!  Eddie was the perfect host and went above and beyond to make our stay special.  He knows a lot about the area and and was always very helpful! His caretaker Henry who lives in a nearby cabina on the property gave us privacy but was handy if we needed him. We highly recommend this home! ❤️

This property is a gem. I am convinced that it will always have a 5-star rating. The views are spectacular, the house is spacious and comfy. Eddie is a dreamed host, and is very well supported by Henry the caretaker. San Ysidro is a few kilometers away and has lots to offer. We had booked many properties in Costa Rica, this one is at the very top of the list.

This place was amazing! We were searching for an out of the way place to unwind but still be close enough to go out to local eateries and bars. We took a chance as this was a new Airbnb and we were the first guests. But being Superhosts ourselves we loved getting to help someone with their trial run. It did not disappoint. The location is stunning. The views in the daytime are majestic but at night in the crisp air looking down on the city lights - that was my favorite part. The home was incredibly decorated and furnished in a way that was definitely not cookie cutter. Eddie was great and you can really sense his passion for the area. He was very helpful with knowing all of the best spots to grab a cold beer, great food and sites to see in the area. He is from the US but has lived in CR forever so communication was easy. Highly recommend - we will be back!
