An open-air king suite tops this 4-bedroom treehouse, with ocean views, a deep private pool, and a two-minute walk to Playa Hermosa beach near San Jose. Sleeps 9.
The Space
The Hermosa Treehouse is thoughtfully designed to blend luxury with an authentic Costa Rican atmosphere. Nestled in the jungle and constructed from sustainably sourced natural materials, this private rental is located in Playa Hermosa, Santa Teresa, Cóbano, just a short walk from the white sand beach.
The treehouse features an open-air king bedroom suite on the top floor, allowing you to sleep surrounded by the jungle while enjoying the cool ocean breeze, the sound of crashing waves, and breathtaking ocean views at sunrise. This room also includes a sofa bed.
On the lower floors, there are three additional fully enclosed king suites, each equipped with air conditioning and private bathrooms, bringing the total to four king suites. The newly built garden-level suites offer workspaces and HD smart TVs for added convenience.
The extra-deep pool on the main level stays cool and provides a perfect spot to unwind between activities.

Our stay at Hermosa Treehouse was VERY special. It is the kind of place, from the architecture, layout, furnishings, and more, that made my husband and I feel so at home. First time in Costa Rica for us, so we were uncertain about so much. Will we like the area? Yes, we loved it so much that we are returning next year! Will the house be too remote? NO! It has just the right kind of remoteness, we could walk to the beach in 3 minutes, and to cafes and restaurants within 10 minutes. The attention and care we received from the staff was fantastic: Yoselin was extremely responsive, sweet and professional. If we didn't need something, she would check in with us discretely every day, reminding us: I am here for you. Fernanda is a joy, she cleaned and washed our clothes, but what I loved the most about her is how much she loves her job. David is a gem, taking care of the grounds or pretty much anything you need. David is one of the kindest human beings I have ever met. We are grateful!

My family and I had the absolute pleasure of staying at Steve’s treehouse this past week. Steve was very thorough with answering any of my questions. He was detailed and highly knowledgeable and made me confident when I committed to booking the treehouse. The treehouse is spectacular!!!! All the rooms were spacious and meticulously clean. The airiness of the entire home made you feel like you were one with nature. My favourite room was the canopy room. What an immersive experience being surrounded by the jungle and the sea. The pool area was my second favourite as the gardens are so lush and beautiful. The continuous visits from monkeys, butterflies and birds was a welcomed surprise! The skies at night – what a sight to see - with no light pollution, it feels like you can reach out and touch the stars. You cannot beat the location of the treehouse. You are a very short walk away from the BEST beach in ST. The Staff were incredible. I would return in an instant

Our family had an enjoyable stay at the Hermosa Treehouse. It is a beautiful setting and the home construction is stunning and unique. Kids loved the pool and Yoselin was super helpful in arranging horseback riding and snorkeling/whalewatching excursions. One thing to note that we didn’t realize when renting is that the dirt road to points north passes along the south border of property and is frequently used by noisier vehicles such as motorbikes and ATVs, beginning in the 5-6 am hour. Wasn’t a major issue though the prospective renter should realize the unique, open air design of the house which is so fun for letting in the sounds of nature, will also of course allow other noise to be heard. All in all, a recommended stay.

First & foremost the home is a reflection of the exemplary host Steve. He is the definition of hospitable. About the area: Hermosa is less populated than ST & absolutely stunning. I wouldn’t stay anywhere else. The house offers a very unique combination of ocean views (as its 3 stories tall) while still being walking distance to the beach. This is rare & alone worth booking the house for. The treehouse: Lives up to its name, you’re living outside in the jungle. Monkeys 🐒 will come visit, butterflies🦋, raccoons 🦝 , lizards 🦎 , crabs 🦀 … all are out & about. The yoga deck is a powerful place to enjoy the jungle, ocean & treehouse views. The house is more than a place to stay, it an experience in & of itself. We stayed there for 5 nights & I simply did not want to leave. If you’re lucky enough to get a reservation here, you’ll have a cherished life memory. Enjoy!

We had a wonderful stay at the Hermosa Treehouse. This is truly a unique experience and feels like you are living in the jungle canopy. Their is an entire team there, led by Yoselin, who is on top of anything and everything you need, going so far as to anticipate before you ask. We've never had such white glove service at a rental. We had their cook, Gretel, cook us a typical Costa Rican meal and it was by far the best and most authentic Costa Rican food we have had over two trips to Costa Rica. I highly recommend you ask for this service at least once if you come.
