The Space
Newly renovated, the charming "Sol y Luna" is a three-bedroom house featuring a private pool. Constructed with hemp walls, this home is situated within Finca Shambalah, a secure 60-acre organic farm with 24-hour guarded access. The property includes an equestrian center offering horseback riding lessons and beach tours for both adults and children.
The house comfortably accommodates up to six guests with three bedrooms, each furnished with queen beds. Additionally, the living room has a sofa that converts into a single bed. The kitchen is fully equipped with a refrigerator, stove, cooking utensils, and all necessary appliances.
A large wooden deck surrounds the home, furnished with a dining table, chairs, a big hammock, and a suspended chair, providing a beautiful outdoor space. Mosquito nets cover every window, and air conditioning and fans are installed throughout the house. WiFi is available in all areas.
Guests receive seasonal organic fruits harvested from the farm. Laundry facilities are separate and private. Optional maid and cooking services can be arranged for an additional fee. Other services such as yoga, surf lessons, mountain bike tours, and massages can also be organized on-site for extra charges.

This property is literal paradise. The farm is perhaps the most relaxing and magical place I’ve been. Our kids loved feeding the horses and playing in the pool. The furnishings were beautiful. Everything was spotlessly clean. Don’t hesitate to book!!!

Loved our stay. The place is just magical. Waking up in front of the horses and being able to feed them is a unique experience that makes the stay even more special. The space is very clean, well-appointed, and the outside area with the pool is a real favorite. The rooms are cozy. Contrary to what some reviews suggest, the road is rather simple. With children, the most suitable beach nearby is Playa Avellanas. It's still beautiful, but the waves can be quite strong. There are few services on site, only a few excellent restaurants. We didn't enjoy swimming there as much, especially with a one-and-a-half-year-old child. So we spent a day in Tamarindo, about 30 minutes away. It was perfect.

Finca Shambalah is a magical place! We were sad to only spend one night here. We loved it so much and hope we find ourselves back here again one day. 🙏🏻💖🫶🏻

I cannot praise Isabelle and her team enough. The house was amazing. The communication was exceptional. Isabelle sent so many helpful tips and suggestions while we were there. The house was so cute. Beautifully designed inside. We loved it! The surroundings were lovely too. So nice to wake up to the birds and the horses. Our kids did a lesson and beach tour with Isa and Jesus. They absolutely loved it. It was a definite highlight of their holiday. The beach was within walking distance and it was gorgeous. Hardly anybody else was there and the waves were fun on the body boards. We stayed for 4 nights but we could have easily stayed longer. I would HIGHLY recommend Isa’s place. I hope that we will be able to return and soak in the peacefulness and calmness. It is absolutely Shambala by name and Shambala by nature. Massive thank you to Isa and all of the team ❤️

We had the best time at La Finca Shambalah. A very relaxing location close to many sites. The host is extremely responsive. She provided numerous recommendations for activities for all ages and activity levels. Recommendations for local favorite restaurants were spot on! We will definitely return. Pura Vida!

Amazingly beautiful and tranquil property. My group spent lots of great time in the pool, on the deck, and lounging inside. The surrounding roads are a little bumpy, but absolutely worth it to get to such a relaxing place. Hosts were incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed!

We had a wonderful stay at Finca Shambalah - I visited with my husband and 3 kids, 9, 8, and 3.5yo. They loved the pool and feeding the horses treats daily, and all 3 had a horse back riding lesson which they helped us arrange. We had a delicious dinner cooked by a fantastic local chef, and took surf lessons on the Playa Avellanas beach. The town is lovely - roads are a bit tough to navigate in this part of CR, so you need 4-wheel drive and would definitely rent a car. We loved exploring beaches nearby - Jesus even connected us to a wildlife conservation group who tipped us off to sea turtles beaching to lay eggs an hour away, which was a once in a lifetime experience. We hope to come back! Amazing place for an adventurous family vacation, couldn’t have done anything better.

Great stay spent in this accommodation with 6 friends. We only spent one night (which was far too short for us 😢). The setting is beautiful, with very beautiful horses that you can feed. The amenities are perfect, and overall the accommodation is very well maintained. The best for us, it was really great. We would recommend this place to anyone.

We stayed for 5 nights at Fincas Shambalah. Everything was perfect! Jesus, the person who looks after the property, is very friendly and welcoming. We went on a horseback ride with our two boys, aged 4 and 8; it was very enjoyable and well organized. As for the house, it was just beautiful!! Well-equipped, clean, enough towels. We would definitely stay at this house again if we come to this area. As for the area, we found it to be very quiet, unspoiled, and relaxing. On the other hand, it lacked some of the activities you can find in the south and center of the country (green national parks, animals, waterfalls, etc., which are more to our liking), but we wanted to visit Guanacaste knowing that we were at the end of the dry season (this is not our first stay in Costa Rica). On the other hand, it’s an ideal area for surfing! In short, we would 100% recommend the house!!!
