Notes:

Broadband wi-fi is free for those bringing laptops or notebooks. The pool area is right next to the house and its patio areas are extensively tiled. The pool has a deep end, at six feet, and is intended not just for play but exercise. Young children must not swim unattended. The main floor is open-air and open-space, but well-protected by decorative Spanish grillwork. Lonas (rain blinds) may be lowered in the event of heavy tropical rain. The downstairs floor is entirely screened in, and comes with a separate entrance and an en suite.. The maid and gardener come twice a week, at our cost, as well as the pool overseer. The gardener will from time to time offer ripe bananas, pineapples, papayas and other seasonal fruit from our orchards. Tools and other gardening supplies are kept in a locked bodega, near the gate. That gate should be locked each evening for your comfort and security. Within the house, three secure lockups are available for valuables.


Further Details for the villa in Costa Rica, Central America

Support a healthy, green environment We are contributors to several environmental organizations and particularly invite naturalists, birders, and those concerned with keeping our planet green and healthy, and support the Costa Rican government's initiatives to this end. Thus we offer a 15% discount to other such supporters. We have lived part time in Costa Rica since 1980, and can help renters with most if not all of their travel plans and we have a wide knowledge of the country's tourist areas, parks, and particularly local attractions, as well as the social and political issues of Costa Rica. Renters should not hesitate to ask questions. For those interested in flora and fauna: coatis, sloths, tree iguanas, anteaters, squirrels, colorful frogs and geckos, and other fauna visit from the National Park. At night the lawn below the house twinkles with fireflies. Wake up to the reverberant trumpeting of howler monkeys, to a serenade of tanagers, thrushes and flycatchers, and colorful songsters galore. And enjoy our new pool

A writer's home This property is the home of Tekla Deverell, psychologist, and William Deverell, novelist. We offer a 15% discount to writers and artists as well.

Extras Villa Tekla pays for all gardening and maid services (Francisco and Lorena, honest, valued employees who come two mornings each week), and all utilities including cable.

Other Activities birding, river rafting, canopy tours, secret beaches
