Tom and Holly were gracious hosts, providing little extras on our arrival and helpful information about local places and activities. Casa Zenn lived up to its name - truly a peaceful and beautiful location to unwind. The back veranda and pool area is lovely. Toucans and fiery aracaras visited every day and monkeys came by a couple of days. So many butterflies and flowers to also enjoy. it is a nature lovers paradise.

We had such a wonderful and relaxing stay at Tom and Hollie's. Their property is a stunning, private escape with thoughtfully designed landscaping. Tom and Hollie were fantastic hosts, providing excellent information including guidance on where and when to look for different animals. We highly recommend taking the time to read the well-curated booklets they have prepared, as they are full of great information on the local plants and animals. Thank you for a perfect getaway!

If you are looking for nature in a barely experienced natural way without sacrificing the amenities of a comfortable house including pool, this is the place to be! It's even more beautiful than in the photos and descriptions! Anytime again, it wouldn't be so remote. But this is only possible with the location, nature and the animals.

CasaZenn is a gem! We were very glad to be up at CasaZenn rather than right on the beach in Zancudo. It was so peaceful to retreat to the beautiful gardens, pool, and view of the ocean after playing at the beach or exploring the area. Tom and Hollie were super responsive and helpful! We had a few hiccups during our stay, (like an unusually long power outage) and they did everything they could do make sure we had what we needed. They also connected us with horseback riding and snorkeling tours within hours of asking. Both of which were wonderful! We saw dolphins in the bay and rode horses through the forest, hilltops, and beach. The highlight of CasaZenn is the attraction of surrounding nature. The mornings are incredible. Birdsong, howler monkeys, capuchins, and BUTTERFLIES! I have never seen so many butterflies, it feels like you are in a sanctuary. We also saw toucans, green parrots, macaws, and a sloth. The poolside is lovely morning, afternoons, or under the stars. 🦋

Simply magical and beautiful. We loved our time at Casa Zenn and hope to come back someday. This place is just something very special. Super lovely hosts, great surroundings and a beautiful house with a stunning garden. Watching the toucans and monkeys in the morning with a coffee is just something special. Some days we just enjoyed the garden and pool. Absolute recommendation.

Our stay at Casa Zenn was absolutely exceptional! Every detail was perfect, and the garden is a true paradise. The relaxing spaces are fantastic, and it’s ideal for families with kids, everything is provided. We even saw toucans and monkeys in the garden! The hosts are incredibly kind and thoughtful, and having a Christmas tree for our celebration far from home was a beautiful touch. The decor is stunning, and we loved the eco-friendly products they make themselves. It was truly the best place we could imagine, and we hope to return one day. Thank you, it was amazing!

Casa Zenn is incredible! The house is wonderful, the garden and pool lovingly maintained and beautiful, and you are surrounded by amazing wildlife. The monkeys, scarlet macaws, tucans, and other tropical birds visit daily. A true delight for animal lovers. Tom and Hollie are fantastic hosts, and we recommended their meal plan. At first we were uncertain about not being right on the beach, but this place is an oasis and many beaches, each with their own charm, are a short drive away. Make sure to rent a 4 wheel drive car to navigate the area.

Our stay at Casa Zenn definitely delivered the Zenn. What a beautiful and peaceful retreat Tom & Hollie have created. They welcomed us and showed us around the property and offered very helpful insights. Their kindness included a nice welcome package that included homemade bagels with spreads, chocolate banana cake and coffee. All were delicious! The wildlife viewing around the house was awesome. We saw squirrel and white face capuchin monkeys, aracari’s and many other cool birds and some very interesting insects. We loved the Pavones and Zancudo areas and will definitely be making another trip down as we didn’t have near enough time to experience everything the area has to offer. If you’re planning a trip to this area of Costa Rica, I’d highly recommend soaking up the Zenn life at Casa Zenn.
