If you are looking for a slice of heaven than this is the place

The pictures that are on the VRBO website are completely accurate. We were greeted with such friendliness by both Michelle and David and that care lasted for our entire stay. The views from the pool are incredible…we spent many hours in the pool enjoying those views of the Pacific as well as enjoying all the wildlife. The unit is very well laid out f with a fully equipped kitchen as well as a bbq…which we used most nights. We took a taxi fro SHo airport right to our home in the sky, but rented a car in Jaco for a few days of sightseeing etc. if you are renting a car we strongly suggest 4wd as the drive up the mountain can be a bit challenging.Anyone who rents this unit will not be disappointed

Cannot say enough about this property as it has a fantastic view of the ocean and forest. We ventured out daily to take various tours and always looked forward to returning mid afternoon to enjoy the pool and lounge area. David and Michelle were exceptional hosts and we enjoyed spending time with them. Would not hesitate to stay here again!

I’ve been visiting this area for 15 years and this is the best short term rental I’ve had the pleasure of staying! The view from the pool and each room is breathtaking! Found ourselves never wanting to leave. The host, David and Michelle, are two of the most genuine people you’ll ever meet. I’ll definitely return.

Incredible views

The property is absolutely gorgeous, the hosts are wonderful. It was a bit difficult to get to and I would highly recommend a 4x4. The views for sure made it worth it. One of our the air conditioners did not work and a repair man was unable to come out, but the hosts did everything in their power to ensure our comfort. Overall a good experience, we would go back to visit for sure.

This is a beautiful home located on a mountain top overlooking the Pacific Ocean. The view is gorgeous and it has a wonderful infinity pool. While relaxing in the pool or just sitting enjoying the scenery you will see toucans, buzzards, Macaw’s, Cara Cara Eagles and white face capuchin monkeys. It was just so beautiful and relaxing we didn’t want to leave. The hosts Michelle and David were so gracious and helpful with anything we needed. I highly recommend this place. We will definitely return.

Christmas in Jaco

Michelle was proactive with us and helped us so much along the way, and answered our many questions giving advice about things to do, places to eat, massage recommendations, and so much more! David and Michelle’s home was wonderful and so peaceful and just what our busy lives needed, where we had tranquility, a beautiful view, could see wildlife, and so much more. We enjoyed our stay so much and if we ever came again to Costa Rica we would stay there again! They are wonderful hosts and their home does not disappoint. We loved our Christmas in this amazing country.

5-star stay

The house is spectacular and the same can be said about the hospitality of our hosts. They did everything and more to make us feel at home. We enjoyed the views, the pool, and the house. There is lots to do and see in the area and so we filled our 6-day stay and truly regretted that we had to leave and go back home. Our hosts allowed us to arrive a day early due to a tropical storm in the location where we were coming from -- this was super nice. We highly recommend booking this house and will come back, if time permits.

Over the Top Beautiful!

What an amazing spot in the world and the hosts, Michelle and David, were beyond gracious and accommodating! We loved every minute of our stay and enjoyed all that came with it. Emerson, a local chef, was recommended by Michelle and what a find he was. He was so good we ended up having him for another night. The whole stay was so so delightful that we booked another stay for next year! Thank you Michelle and David for sharing your joy with us! Cathy, Dave, Nancy and Lisa

Paradise on earth

This was an absolutely magical visit. The views were spectacular, accommodations top-rate, and David and Michelle are such wonderful, lovely, and helpful hosts. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit, the surrounding wildlife and daily morning walks on the mountain. David and Michelle made us feel right at home. The house is truly situated on a slice of heaven, and I will longingly recall our stay as I sit back to work at my computer at home. It was hard to leave. Michelle and David - thank you so much. We really enjoyed our little visits with you - you guys are the best!!

What can I say? This place is truly magical. I have tears in my eyes as I type this. I will tell you right now, you will NEVER want to leave.

A piece of heaven is absolutely correct!

Michelle and David's place in Jaco is named Pedazo de Cielo, and it is an apt description. We were a family traveling with a toddler and infant, and our stay was absolutely perfect! The house's location provides breathtaking views that you can enioy from a pristine pool. In addition to the views, we caught sight of beautiful birds and monkeys frolicking in the nearby trees and patio. The house itself was imaculate and beautifully furnished. We immediately felt right at home. Contributing sizeably to this was Michelle and David's hospitality! They provided such a warm greeting to us and ensured we had what we needed throughout our stay. As one of several examples, when we told them we were going to the beach one day, they offered and put out beach tables, umbrellas, and chairs near our car so we'd have everything we needed! They also alerted us to when we could see wildlife (i.e. monkeys) from the house--much to the delight of our daughter. In short, you cannot find a more perfect place to stay and set of hosts. Thanks, Michelle and David!

Heaven above Jaco

David and Michelle’s home high on the mountain - overlooking the ocean and mountains - is so breath taking - pictures hardly capture its beauty and tranquility. Both are gracious hosts and you feel as though you are a part of their family from the first hug hello. The house is so beautiful and is graciously appointed with any and everything you need. The pool and outside living area is an oasis - not giving you much reason to leave. But, there are great beaches and tasty food close by so ventures off the mountain are equally rewarding. We also did a local waterfall hike which we loved. Bottom line - this is a rental experience not to be missed. You will fall in love with the home, the owners and the experience. We will be coming back!

Paradise in the Jungle

Michelle and David thank you so much for one of the best times in our lives. Your home has the perfect name and is beautifully decorated with attention to detail and clean inside and out with lushly landscaped grounds. Although we did have a few issues with several of the amenities during our visit, the hosts addressed them and made us feel a sense of calmness, love and privacy. We really enjoyed our day trip to the National Park @ Manuel Antonio with our guide Frank. The beach at Hermosa is perfect for for catching the surfers and doing some body boarding. One of our highlights was personal Chef Emerson who prepared a delicious traditional Costa Rican dinner for us. Much gratitude for sharing your beautiful piece of paradise. We will be back for some more Pura Vida!

All the best Costa Rica has to offer…

What an amazing stay we had at Pedazo de Cielo, if we could give it 1000 stars we would. From the gracious, welcoming hosts (❤️Michelle and David), to the amazing property with spectacular views, it was nothing short of perfect! The wildlife surrounds and even comes right onto the property! From white faced monkeys, to parrots, iguanas to toucans we saw it all. The drive from the airport was easy, the road up the mountain to the house dirt and rocky but added an element of fun to it. Great location near beautiful beaches, good restaurants, Manuel antonio, and more!! Our 3 kids (6,9,12) were so sad to leave and already ask about returning which we hope to real soon!! Thank you Michelle and David, you have forever touched our lives!! ✨❤️

Simply Wonderful

My friend and I came for a week of enjoying nature, both the sights during the day and the stars at nights. The experience was nothing less than outstanding. I liked it so much I booked a 2.5 week stay in March of 2024. A special message to anyone interested in astronomy. This location is great. Located at the top of the cerro fresco mountain at 1200 ft and about 4 miles as the crow flies to the ocean. Most nights were clear at sunset, and if cloudy, the skies cleared by midnight. Got some of my best photos ever with my digital telescope. David and Michelle are absolutely lovely hosts and went above and beyond to insure we have a great time. Staying here will be a wonderful experience for you. I guarantee it.
