Further details about this house rental
Wildlife Refuge Area: We have experienced the Matapalo area to be a natural wildlife refuge. This is because of the abundance of wildlife populating this area. It is also one of the most diverse rainforest ecosystems on our planet. Because the area remains unspoiled by man, it has become a refuge for animals that are endangered as well as exotic.
You don't have to leave the house to view gorgeous sunrises, monkeys of four varieties, birds of a multitude of species including toucans, scarlet macaws, hawks, wild turkeys, and butterflies, including the blue morpho butterfly. Our big open-air windows let you have a close relationship to jungle life. Sunrises are worth waking up for. Just sit up in your bed and you can view out to the East, the water, Gulf Dulce and the mountains in Panama across the Gulf.
Beach exploration brings interesting discoveries of rocks, shells, reptiles (iguanas and other lizards) amphibians, sea crabs, river life, tide pools, birds (pelicans are plentiful), sea-faring vessels, trees and vegetation, ever-changing beaches with tidal changes up to nine feet. Fishing from the beach often results in bounty from the sea!
Guest Book: May 5 – 16, 2006 We had first visited Costa Rica in 2003 with a trip to Puerto Jimenez during a very rainy week in late October. We were captivated with the Matapalo area even then. On 3 successful trips we explored other areas of Costa Rica, and also a trip to Panama, but decided to return to Matapalo which had stayed in our hearts. This is truly a very special place and I feel so at home here, that it does not seem so much a vacation, but a haven indescribable, so comfortable and soul restoring. Everything is amazingly easy and in tune. The house is just perfect, it has a tremendous feeling to it. Both Ned and I have enjoyed each day more than the last. There is a beautiful rhythm to the days and the area is truly magical! We hold this visit as one of the most special and would love the opportunity to return in the near future. Thank you for you and your managers wonderful hospitality! Best Wishes, Marcia and Ned Putnam Much more feedback at the Casa Dos Rios site
