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.

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.
