A one-bedroom treehouse for two, set 50 meters from the beach in Puerto Jiménez. Watch monkeys, toucans, and scarlet macaws from the jungle, then cook in the full kitchen and relax off-grid.
Overview
Explore one of the most biodiverse places on Earth from this unique treehouse home. Immerse yourself in nature in one of Costa Rica’s most secluded jungle and beach areas.
Set on a 3-acre beachfront property, the home places you at eye level with the surrounding wildlife, including four species of monkeys, toucans, and scarlet macaws. The beach is just 50 meters away along a private path and features an excellent wave.
The property is also one of the few homes in the area within walking distance of a local bar and restaurant, while remaining completely off-grid.
The Space
This quaint studio treehouse with a loft bed is nestled among the jungle trees. Although cozy, it includes a full-size kitchen equipped for preparing whatever you desire.
Please note that the queen-size bed is located in a loft and requires climbing a ladder. The home is approximately 100 feet from the ocean, and you can follow the path directly to the beach.
Guest Access
Guests are welcome to use the yoga shala and bathroom at any time for workouts or personal yoga practice. The space also has Wi-Fi.
Community yoga classes are offered every Wednesday and Friday at 8:00 a.m.
Other Things to Note
Because the property is within walking distance of the bar and restaurant, music from the DJ can be heard at the house every Friday night. Our motto is, “If you can’t beat them, join them,” so we spend a few hours at the bar on Friday evenings. The music usually tapers off around 11:00 p.m.

We had the perfect week at Jenn and Chads place! Tons of spider and howler monkeys around, macaws flying through the trees, such a peaceful place. The beaches were GORGEOUS, it’s like being in a postcard. Jenn and Chad had superb recommendations for food, beaches, and things to do. Martina’s is especially delicious (try the tuna!) and we found some perfect take homes at their craft market. Backwash beach was my favorite, perfect serene swimming beach with ample shade. We really appreciated the board rack and getting the intel on the waves in the area. If you’re looking for surf, wildlife, or just a relaxing get away, this is the place. 10/10 absolutely would stay again!

Our stay at Jenn's place was an experience! A place that connects you with nature like few I've seen. Matapalo is already a special place, and Jenn's house is the cherry on top! It's a few steps from the beach and surrounded by lush nature and many special animals to observe! It is a peaceful place for those seeking tranquility, calm, connection and exclusivity. Matapalo was my favorite place in all of Costa Rica, and staying at Jenn's house made everything even more special! We'll definitely be coming back… I highly recommend it!

If you’re looking for a beautiful treehouse in the middle of the jungle, this is the place to be. Chad was an incredible host. Gave us the best instructions around the area, about surfing and restaurants. The house is so beautiful and it is completely integrated to the amazing nature surrounding us. I will definitely come back to this place.

Great, place in the middle of nature, with loads of wild animals! Jennifer and the local manager were awesome people, easy to communicate with, gave us information contacts to taxi and organized a surfboard. :) Definitely recommendable!

Where do I even begin!! Without a doubt one of the most extraordinary places we have ever stayed. A dream come true. Waking up every morning to spider monkeys and capuchin monkeys swinging through the trees a few feet away — unreal. You’ll experience the unrivaled biodiversity of the Osa just by spending time here. Howler monkeys all around. Macaws flying overhead constantly. The beach on the property!! The cabin itself is absolutely amazing, with delightful design details, and extremely good air circulation so the nights are magically cool despite the daytime heat. Jenn & Chad are the kindest and coolest people imaginable, and they have so many spot-on recommendations for the area. With most of the roads now paved it’s very easy to access. You’re nestled in nature, and it feels extremely private even with a couple other houses on the property. Everything is breathtaking, do not hesitate.

It's the perfect place to go off grid for a while. The beaches are beautiful, and there are plenty of places to explore, swim, surf, or just hang around.

Caliosa is a wonderful place to stay. Super clean, it has all the commodities and is surrounded by a piece of heaven on earth. As other guests have commented previously, this little house is not for everybody as climbing up to bed could be challenging for some, just take this into account before booking! Jenn is a really gracious and welcoming hostess, her good vibe is contagious! If you have any questions, she has all the answers! This place is truly a gem, we’ll be back for sure!
