A legendary view and an aesthetic environment dripping with jungle chlorophyl awaits your visit at this beautiful villa. As you enter the front gate you will find a splashy kiss of crystal citrine towers with passion fruit and vanilla vines cascading over the private villa garden wall. An immediate calm arrives and your fatigue and frayed nerves from the journey are gone.
Casa Citrina has one of the most dramatic and privileged locations in the area, overlooking the famous Whale’s Tail. Loads of privacy on a twelve acre property, perched overlooking the jungle, wildlife abounds. Entering the house, you will not be able to resist going straight to the patio to take in the breathtaking view of one of Costa Rica’s most iconic locations. Many visitors have likened this setting to the Amalfi Coast of Italy and Kauai. Overlooking the breeding grounds of the Antarctic and Alaskan whales and the world class sunsets there is no better place to experience the gifts of nature.
With 5 star furnishings throughout, you can cozy up on the Restoration Hardware’s famous cloud sofa, just in time to hear the jungle symphony of the squawking from the family of toucans that live near by. The house is at a high elevation which means, no pesky bugs, light cool breezes (yes you may need a sweater) but you can still sleep to the crashing of waves immediately below. The kitchen will impress any gourmet cook with all you need to prepare the perfect meal. Use our online shopping contacts to order everything you need and have it delivered and stocked prior to your arrival. If you do not want to cook, our local chefs can have tasty meals waiting for you. Your choice of world class wines and liquors can be ready on the kitchen island ready to pour and enjoy on the patio your first day here.
The home has 2 large master suites and a mini master, all with en suite bathrooms. Two baths have outdoor air bubble bathtubs and gorgeous all glass showers. There is an extra smaller room with a 1/2 bath that could be for a nanny or maid. Although located in a temperate elevation, all rooms have air conditioning. All bedding is organic, no pesticides have been used on the property, there is structured water and all cleaning supplies are carefully chosen to be non toxic. All bathrooms have organic shampoos and body washes and other amenities from a local company specializing in nature aligned potions The heated salt swimming pool takes the slight chill off in the evenings and an outdoor kitchen is perfect for a poolside evening BBQ. If you are coming to work, everything is ready with a computer monitor, fiber optic high speed internet, solar energy to guarantee a back up in the case of energy outages and abundant wifi throughout the property.
Organic fruits and vegetables when available from our permaculture garden are often left at your front door and you are always invited to visit the newly completed black bamboo greenhouse that is always bustling with seedlings. Maybe the stingless bee hives on the property will have honey ready for your breakfast or for sweetening your tropical smoothie.
