Casa Del Caribe with Bali Style Pool for Rent in Cocles, 300 meters from beach

Forget your alarm clock; awaken to the sounds of conga/howler monkeys and tropical birds in this Caribbean style home with Bali Style Pool just 300 meters from Cocles Beach for surfing, swimming and sun bathing.

Made of Costa Rican hardwoods and ceramic tiles, this nearly 2000 square feet, 2 BR/2&1/2 Baths home has an open floor plan with Bali Style Pool downstairs where the hummingbirds like to visit, and a wrap around balcony upstairs with 2 spacious bedrooms. The pool was added to the house in September of 2022. The home is surrounded by forests and beautiful fruit trees affording a lot of privacy (with luck you might see toucans eating the papaya); and yet you will not be isolated as there are neighbors close by. The next door neighbor has a guide and taxi service. And another neighbor, Johanna, (just a 2 minute walk away) has a very nice family run restaurant (called a soda in Costa Rica). You must try her Caribbean style corvina (sea bass). A car is not necessary as you will be only minutes walking or biking for anything you may want to see: beautiful beaches, jaguar refuge, horseback riding, restaurants, night life, grocery stores, internet cafe, etc. As an option, 4 banana bikes are at the home available for your use for an extra fee of $5 day/bike, with 2 boogie/body boards included for playing in the ocean. The banana bikes are a popular way to see the sights (if you need more,others are available in town for $6-7/day/bike).

The home is located in Miss Winnie Town, a small community within the city of Cocles, less than 2 miles south of Puerto . In the neighborhood there are vacation and permanent Tico homes(Tico is a friendly nickname for a Costa Rican). Here you will enjoy a lot of privacy and at the same time you will have friends and neighbors close to you. Thanks for your interest in this wonderful home we call Casa del Caribe in Costa Rica's most beautiful and most unspoiled tropical paradise!

Several concerns
We stayed at this house in Cocles for 5 days in the middle of March 2024. This is our 6th trip to Costa Rica but first time traveling to the Puerto Viejo/Cocles area. Prior to our trip we had concerns about bugs in the home and being able to stay cool at night given the open air style home. The owner mentioned that those are not complaints she has heard of in the past. I wanted to give others a first hand account of our experience. The positives: Shelly and her son are really nice people and attentive to communication via email and WhatsApp. The location is great. Close to beaches and restaurants. The splash pool was really nice The negatives: cleanliness of grounds: Lots of dead branches and leaves around the yard with black plastic fencing between the yards. Trash scattered around the backyard (old tools, buckets, paint cans). The home: Quite a few bugs in the home. Returning home from this location our family has never had so many bug bites. Given the outdoor living arrangement some bug bites were to be expected but it was overwhelming. Halfway through our trip, 3 of our 5 family members experienced extensive bug bites over most of our bodies and we suspected bed bugs. This was confirmed when we returned home. I told the owner of this problem so hopefully she will replace the mattresses. Other: Hot bedrooms, uncomfortable beds and pillows. We would not stay here again despite the friendly owner.

Amazing Family Spot
We had an amazing time diving into the culture of the local towns. Shelly was amazing in giving us ideas and off the beaten path recommendations for food and adventure spots. The house was a great place for our family to relax and the pool was a great break from the ocean. You can walk or ride to all the nearby beaches towns and restaurants. Highly recommend!

Incredible relaxing house
We had a truly wonderful stay, not only was the house incredible but Shelly, the owner, was so welcoming! This house is filled with good vibes and my family and I truly felt relaxed.

Awesome place!
We fell in love with this place! The wood is so thick and sturdy and beautiful, we keep looking at houses to buy and haven’t found anything close to the natural beauty of this open and spacious wooden home. We all loved swings by the pool and one of the kids every morning went and laid in the hammock upstairs to bird and monkey watch. We loved hearing all of the birds and animals everyday and miss it all terribly since we’ve been home! The kitchen was very well stocked and we enjoyed cooking meals daily! We loved how there are 2 grocery stores in walking distance and the restaurant around the corner was one of our family favorites, we walked there twice! We rented a car and drove around a lot, enjoying the few minutes drive into Puerto Viejo to all of the restaurants and shops there quite often. The Indian restaurant was the best Indian food we’ve ever had and we’ve had a lot. The Coral Pool near the restaurant down the street was the best bonus in the area for us! We had two boys with us ages 10 and 12 and I felt so happy and peaceful knowing they could swim in there free of rip currents. We visited there almost daily and enjoyed locals offering us fresh exotic fruits to try. We will greatly miss this beautiful home, very nice people and area so much! Oh and the property manager Fred and next door neighbor Jess were so wonderful and helpful if we needed anything they were right there for us! I will highly recommend to everyone I know!

Paradise
This property is paradise! The house is stunning. Beautiful wood and art throughout. The highlight of our time here was definitely swimming in the gorgeous pool (especially when we came back from our adventures and needed to cool down). Excellent location… short walk to the beach, restaurants and grocery stores. Our host, Shelly, was SPECTACULAR! She arranged transportation for us,as well set us up for tours/adventures. She was always quick to respond to our hundreds of questions. We could not have asked for a better experience. Already looking forward to our return trip in the future.

Magical Place
The house was everything promised and more. Waking up to the feeling that you are in the middle of the rainforest but in the comfort of a beautiful place. It was a dream come true. The house has a beautiful design that fits the ambiance. The pool was just what we needed at the right time every minute of the day. The property was very clean and well maintained. The look from the balcony was great.The neighborhood was very safe even when walking late at night through the paths to get to the house. The location was very convenient. Walking distance to a beautiful beach, restaurants and grocery stores. The bikes probably need some work but we had a blast taking them out. Shelly was great and was prompt to answer all our questions. We will be back!!
