Beautiful property, remote as described

Great place to get away, awesome but quiet town. A few simple restaurants in town, El barco on the beach is awesome. Mike at the butterfly farm was fantastic.

Wonderful get-away and enjoy nature

We enjoyed our stay. You get away from everything.. One evening, we watched a monkey in the trees next to us, Another morning an iguana visited us and another time we watched a coati. We arrived in a car - I would recommend a 4 wheel drive vehicle. Also, we had no problem with the internet or bugs. The view of sunsets and the ocean from the infinity pool was fantastic

A True Gem That Needs a Little Polishing

Pros: Stunning views. Private. Peaceful. Solid internet. Good communications with owner and property manager. Great pool. Upstairs suite was perfect. The locals were GREAT. Down to earth and helpful.Cons: Should have minimum necessaries for first night such as bars of soap in the bathroom and one roll of paper towels for kitchen. Owner should consider upgrading his fumigation program to mitigate swarming ants and to seal all areas where other unwanted critters enter the house.Observation: It was a 1 hour bumpy ride to the house from the primary route and the house is somewhat remote. This can be good or bad depending on what you are looking for. BUT I would stay there again under the right circumstances because the owner is a man of his word and is very responsive.

Beautiful

We absolutely loved staying here. It was so private and you got the real jungle experience. Saw lots of monkeys, coati, birds, frogs, even a scorpion. Very beautiful view! Stunning sunsets! The house was perfect for our needs, and very happy we had air conditioning as it was very hot while we were there! Vivian was very nice and helpful! Overall experience was awesome! Would definitely stay there again!

Peaceful Playa Coyote

My Wife and I spent 6 wonderful relaxing days exploring this area of Costa Rica. George was great to deal with and his property and house was clean and very peaceful with all the sights and sounds of nature at the doorstep. The view of the Pacific is breathtaking. People looking for a more remote location without all the "touristy" stuff this is the spot. The local Ticos are very friendly and the food/dining options are all excellent. Renting a 4X4 SUV is the best way to explore the many back roads up and down the coast.

Beautiful location and views.

The home is located on a hill with spectacular views. The front pool area is quite nice and that's where we spent most of our time when at the house. The house has a very nice layout, with large bathrooms and separate sink areas from shower and toilet. The furnishings are quite sparse and appear to be old, so it didn't have a cozy feel. The kitchen needs updating. Overall, it was a nice experience.

Disappointment

Way too isolated and far from everything. Also, the furnishings are very Spartan and limited. Pool and view were great but the beach was a disappointment.

Wow!

Two words...remote and secluded! If you want crowds and night life go somewhere else. Secluded beaches (as in more than one). A view worth $$$$. The sounds and sights of the jungle are at your door. What an incredibe way to wake up! The local town has the friendliest people you will ever meet! The food was magnificent and the prices better. We spent 15 days in a place that was absolutely amazing!!!

Great View

We had a great time at this house. There was little things that could have made it better like letting us know there is absolute no reception 10 miles before arriving. Make sure your “Waze” is set ready to go way before arriving. Also there were many spiders and roaches but we were able to kill them all and conquer back the house an hour after arriving. Besides that, the house was amazing with a beautiful view.

Amazing view!! Serene--lovely quiet--just what we wanted.

We were thrilled with location! We wanted someplace very quiet with few people--and was just what this provided. Waking up to birds, howler monkey's was divine. The sunsets were beyond gorgeous. Long walks on what seemed like a private beach as there were so few people. Loved the little village of San Francisco and the adventure of getting there on dirt roads---just what we expected. The beach is very shallow---and the water literally warm--perfect escape from 4 feet of snow---this is truly a spot in Costa Rica for people who want privacy and solitude. That said, we had great food at the small restaurants in San Francisco. George was very helpful in directing us with amenities. We were a happy couple and plan to return and stay longer!!

Best uninterrupted view of the Pacific coast yet.

On the plus side this was exactly the quiet, remote location we hoped for. The infinity pool and patio look directly to the river delta that joins the Pacific without interruption of high rise hotels, jet skis or other distractions. We also enjoyed the small town of San Francisco and explored neighboring towns and beaches. People in the communities were without exception welcoming and patient with our meager Spanish. On the downside there was no wifi that we ever accessed except in town. We also had to use bug spray to bomb the house every night after being eaten alive the first night. All this being said, we would happily return to stay there.

Deserves five stars...but

The home was in a beautiful location, private, quiet, great views. A bone rattling drive to one of the most beautiful beaches that we have had the privelege to roam. George provided us with great contacts who were very helpful, as well as very good general information about the area. This home deserves a five star rating but there are some areas that need attention including the kitchen and the downstairs bedroom...fan not working, light bulbs burned out but too high for us to reach . If there was a 4.5 rating that's what we''d give it but a little TLC and it would be a 5!

Great stay

Everything was as I expected.Comfortable beds ,good pool,sufficient kitchen gadjets.The refrigerator could have been bigger but we bought ice everyday anyway.Although we never had any problems with th road coming up the hill,you had to pay attention and keep your speed up.It rained on the afternoon 2 days in a row but we were already in the house.If it was really rainy you would need a 4x4.I took my big electric grill and that worked great for cooking for 5 adults and a 3 year old and I would go again.Beaches were good and the store down the road a little way was good.The restaurant Loma Palo was good also.

Amazing Property!

Our first trip to Costa Rica and it was incredible. Having this beautiful property to return to after a day of exploring was such a pleasure. The views are unparalleled. Sunset from the house is magical. Howler monkeys, iguanas, numerous birds and last but not least a very friendly Coati, who I look forward to seeing when we return next year. We DEFINITELY will be returning! Also, the region is stunning. A great spot for coffee and breakfast just down the road (Allouette), where you will find a young couple who will direct you to great places to eat and explore. Carlos at Tanga Restaurant on the beach is served up the seafood I've ever had. I personally liked the area so much that on our next trip we're going to scout out some potential property ourselves. George was always very responsive, and everyone we dealt with was super friendly and helpful. I can't recommend enough!

A beautiful, secluded hideaway!

We will never forget this wonderful experience! The house was perfect for us - so private, with everything we needed. The pool was fantastic, and the view breathtaking! Spectacular sunsets! We loved the beaches, and got to see the Pretoma Turtle project, and The Jungle Butterfly Farm in Bejuco - so wonderful! Since we were there in the off-season, some places were closed, but we never felt the need to eat dinner anywhere other than Loma Clara! Some of the best meals we've ever had! Rafaell treated us like royalty! This was SO relaxing! The people of Playa Coyote are warm and wonderful, and willing to help. It was sad to have to leave. We want to come back, but must stay longer next time! Wish we'd seen monkeys, but they stayed away, although we heard them in the distance. Another reason to return!

Lives up to its name!

If you are looking for a quiet retreat with marvelous sunset views, easy access to an uncrowded beach, and a rural ambiance that comes with a few good restaurants then this is the place for you. For nature lovers, the coatimundis come right up to the patio and the birding in the area is good. For those who like comfort in the midst of a hillside forest, the bedrooms are large and the beds comfortable, the AC and washer/dryer work well and the infinity pool is refreshing on a hot day. For the adventuresome, there are interesting areas to explore around this less developed part of the Nicoya peninsula. While the roads are unpaved, directions at intersections were surprisingly well marked. Rafael, of Rancho Loma Clara in San Francisco de Coyote, was a great "host" for our week in the area. George, the owner, is very responsive to questions and concerns. This rental is at the top our list when we return to this area!

Perfect for pets - lovely views and pool

We stayed in this house for a couple of days in December with our two dogs. The house is great, the view unbeatable and the beds were perfect as well. There were four things on the down side: the wifi did not work and there was no one we could reach since there was no cell phone reception, the kitchen did not have any glasses only plastic and we were not welcomed by the person we were told would be there. She sent her little brother instead and he did not explain anything about the house. Also, in the (hot) afternoon there was no shadow at all at the terrace or pool. it would be nice to have a umbrella to sit under or something. Having said that, we loved to walk to the beach (about 20 min.) and the quiet beach itself. The sunsets were unbelievable and the restaurants were great as well. The kingsize beds were very good and we did not need the airco at all at night, which is unusual for the coast. We will probably be back!

Wonderful Getaway

We stayed at George's home for 10 days and it was an ideal location for a true Costa Rican experience. The home is situated on a secluded hillside and overlooks the ocean and estuary just at the bottom, with breath-taking views. We would spend our times at the house on the expansive patio, either in the pool or on the deck chairs, watching the howler monkeys climb from tree to tree and taking in the most amazing sunsets. The house was very comfortable and we were able to cook our meals in the kitchen without any problems. The beach was a short 5 minute drive and most of the beaches we visited were nearly deserted - so much privacy! The house has a great location. The town of San Francisco de Coyote is very close and was welcoming -- any necessities could be purchased at one of the two markets in town. Rafael at Loma Clara was very friendly and we enjoyed the food on more than one occasion. It was also quite an adventure to drive around in the 4x4 and explore the beaches along the coast and neighboring towns - on several of our journeys we had to cross small rivers and climb over mountains! We really cannot say enough good things about George's property and encourage anyone considering it to make the trip to see for themselves!
