Other Things to Note
Powered by solar energy and supplied by an exclusive mountain well, this home exemplifies true off-grid living—an entirely self-sustaining sanctuary. Your stay invites you to appreciate Costa Rica’s rich biodiversity while respecting the environment.
To support this, we kindly ask guests to be mindful of energy consumption. High-energy appliances like air conditioning should only be used during sunny, solar-charging hours from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. The pleasant mountain breeze and ceiling fans will keep you comfortable throughout the night.
Location
La Joya De La Selva is situated in the mountains of La Esperanza, just a short drive from the world-famous Playa Guiones in Nosara. A 4x4 vehicle is required due to unpaved mountain roads with some steep sections. Although the drive is adventurous, the breathtaking views at the summit make it worthwhile.
Upon arrival in Nosara, our concierge will meet you at a designated point to escort you to your tropical retreat. Private transportation can also be arranged for an additional fee.
Laundry Services
We offer complimentary laundry service handled by our staff. For stays up to three nights, this includes up to two loads of laundry. For longer visits, additional loads can be arranged in accordance with our solar energy schedule.
Pets
Pets are welcome on a case-by-case basis. Smaller, well-behaved dogs (generally under 25 pounds) may be approved with prior notice. Please contact us before booking to ensure the best experience for you and your pet.
A refundable security deposit of $250 applies to all pet stays and will be returned after checkout following inspection. There is also a $50 pet cleaning fee.

I stayed here with four friends, and the layout was perfect for our group. The kitchen was well stocked, which made it easy to make smoothies and enjoy a nice dinner together on the beautiful lanai. Listening to the birds at sunset was absolutely magical. The place was clean, had great amenities, and offered an amazing value. We would definitely stay here again.

Run don’t walk to this home! It is spectacular. The roads are rough but doable. Most roads in Costa Rica are like this. The views are fabulous. We even got to meet Felipe. He’s a pizotes. A cute little critter. He came to visit us everyday. My only complaint??? I couldn’t stay longer!!!

Place is beautiful BUT!!! I feel some transparency is missing. Yes there is an AC but you can only use it up to 4pm… it was 80-90 degrees that week. You can imagine that’s uncomfortable to say the least… and more upsetting I didn’t know about it in advance… than one day we were home all day enjoying this amazing house I guess the ac was on for too long and we lost power. No electricity. Middle of nowhere l, middle of the night, WiFi spotty. So hot in the house and I was really annoyed and scared. I have to mention I did contact Airb&b and we were reimbursed for that night. Also the first day- We came there after a long day of travel and there was no running water. We used whatever was left in the pipes to wash our hands but left to our birthday dinner smelly and sweaty. He said it only happened once in the past and sent someone to fix it in the morning. Was very responsive and communicated non stop.important to mention the house is stunning water hot / beautiful place/ clean and ch…

We had a fantastic stay. The property is so peaceful and the view is absolutely breathtaking. The hosts have clearly put a lot of thought into the space and provided everything we could possibly need—and more. The drive up the hill is a bit of an adventure, but it’s all part of the experience. We would gladly return.

I can't say enough great things about Adi and this stay. Deep in the jungle, but just a short 5 min drive to town, truly an escape. We had a family emergency that delayed our arrival and Adi and team were some of the most accomodating hosts I've ever encountered. 6 stars out of 5.

This was an incredible stay for our family! The rough ride, up for us city folk (yes you 100% need 4x4) was all part of the adventure. House was impeccable, views, amenities (back chairs, beach cart, umbrella and toys for the little one) were everything we needed for an enjoyable stay. Plan for 15 min up and down the mountain for each journey into travels and enjoy each minute of this impeccable stay. Stephanie our on site concierge was extremely helpful and always available for questions or cleaning services.

Our stay was absolutely magical. The house had the most incredible views — truly some of the best we’ve ever experienced. Completely surrounded by lush jungle, it felt like we had our own private oasis. There were no neighbors in sight, just nature in every direction, which made the experience feel peaceful, secluded, and incredibly special. One of our favorite parts of the stay was simply sitting on the back patio and observing the wildlife. Without even leaving the house, we saw so much ... monkeys swinging through the trees, colorful birds flying by, whales breaching in the ocean, and, our personal favorite, the resident Coati that made frequent visits to come say hi! It felt like we were immersed in nature in the best possible way.

What an experience. Really felt a world away from the nearby town and felt like we were alone in the jungle. Place is both luxurious and minimalist - perfect combination for an off the grid eco home. Lovely touches like fresh fruit and coffee to welcome us, great lines and towels, beautiful bathrooms - loved the shower head in the master. Beach chairs available for our use. And our friendly Pizote visits were great enjoyed. Some great monkey sightings too! Best of all Adi and her team were extremely helpful and communicative whenever we needed them. Be prepared for no AC at night but pretty cool to listen to the sounds of the jungle and the wind. Overall such a memorable experience!
