Located with easy access on one of Ojochal’s popular roads, this three-bedroom home has classic charm. With just a bit of cosmetic upgrades you can revive it to its full potential, for romance and relaxation in the jungle. Although the location is private, it’s just a minute’s drive for groceries, dinner at Citrus Restaurant, or fresh bread at a French café. Tortuga Beach is just a few minutes away, with it’s scarlet macaws, and Uvita is a 10-minute drive.

Walk in through a beautiful courtyard, through wrought iron gates that provide security and add style, to the lush landscaping and interconnected pathways that create the setting for tropical outdoor living.

The year-round Balso river flows through the back of the property and sheltered under two towering king palms is a large powder-blue tiled pool with an adjacent ranchito. A BBQ pit and large storage building are conveniently located off the terrace that wraps around the home, with a nook for al fresco dining beside the pool.

Enter the home through the solid, carved mahogany front doors, and into the huge open living space and kitchen. The kitchen is outfitted with plenty of counter space and cabinets, making meal prep a breeze for you or your guests.

You’ll find two bedroom suites on the main floor. One is a cozy bedroom with plenty of closets and a spacious ensuite bathroom and laundry facilities.

The other suite is a sizable bedroom with lots of closets and an ensuite bathroom that also services the main living area. That suite is connected to a tower that houses the third suite.

The third suite is in a tower that is part of the home’s architectural interest. It’s a private suite that can be accessed directly from a separate entrance in the courtyard, or through the second suite inside the home. On the ground floor the tower has an efficient kitchenette and living area. Up the tiled steps on the second floor is the large, airy bedroom with a spacious ensuite bathroom with a shower and a tub that add to the romance for guests. There is also a romantic Juliet balcony outside the second-floor bedroom overlooking the gardens.
