Home base

A beach house with its own pool, and the Pacific out front.

Six bedrooms, a pool deck, and a few steps to the sand at Playa Hermosa, just south of Jacó, on Costa Rica’s Pacific coast. The surf breaks right in front, the sunsets are nightly, and a private chef cooks breakfast, lunch and dinner. Walter, our man on the ground, handles the airport pickups, every drive and every excursion. You just show up.
