BOOKING & RATES
'Instant book' for the home with 3 bedrooms (sleeps 10 max). Pls enquire for extra room pricing (these are never rented separate to the main house so no sharing with strangers)
AVOID RESTAURANTS & GROCERY STORES - we have an EXCELLENT, long-standing & MUCH LOVED IN-HOUSE COOK, Milena (extra charges - direct to her). Have Milena TO PRE-SHOP for essential & COOK AN ARRIVAL MEAL for you. That really takes the sting out of a travel day, especially for the kids (& moms & dads!)
Expect all mod cons & flexibility. Book the house & add extra space if your plans change. ADDITONAL ACCOMMODATION IS ONLY AVAILABLE AS PART OF THE MAIN RENTAL & NOT SEPARATELY (no sharing with other guests)
The home is equipped & maintained to be lived in comfortably NOT to maximise rental income.
It’s quiet, secluded & restful in beachside residential K-section but enough in the middle f everything. It’s a very short walk to the surf at the Bakers Beach entrance to Playa Guiones & The Bodhi Tree (sub 5 minutes) & main local amenities (15-20 minutes). Around the corner is Bodhi Surf, Agua Tibia surf school & Olas Verdes' surf school / restaurant .
You wake to the sounds of the surrounding jungle, happily far away from the noise & main thrust of construction in north Guiones. Breakfast on the terrace, & watch the howler monkeys in the treetops.
This is now the 7th season of ownership & we continue to maintain Casa De La Luna to a high standard through a rigorous maintenance program that keeps the jungle, insects & the elements at bay. No small task. You'll find quality furnishing, equipment & fittings plus a decent stock of basic self-catering items & toiletries so Luna feels like a home-from-home. And a good stock of toys and gear for babies
LOCATION IS EVERYTHING
On the doorstep; Agua Tibia & Olas Verdes surf schools, El Manglar Restaurant, The Bodhi Tree Resort (Spa, Yoga, gym, restaurant, juice bar)
For those who are new to the area, Playa Guiones offers an unrivalled blend of Costa Rican authenticity, modern convenience & natural beauty. A 200m nature corridor runs the entire length of the beach keeping bars, condos & general construction at bay. You can sit on your board watching the sun set over the pacific or rise over the jungle. Stunning. The flora & fauna are nothing short of astonishing – whales, dolphins, turtles nesting, birds galore & teaming jungle.
The area has been sympathetically settled for decades, largely by US citizens so the working language is English & standards are high. Don’t expect a boisterous night-life or lots of tourist shops though. Nosara is quiet, laid back, rustic but civilised with amazing restaurants, great facilities & friendly Tico service.
The surf is world class; not tide dependent, consistent, catering for all ability levels plus tuition standards are high. There are other breaks nearby & Playa Pelada is a walk round the headland path.
It isn’t just a place for the surfing fraternity by any means. There’s world-renowned yoga, great spa & massage facilities. There are outdoor adventure activities in abundance. You can snorkel, horseback ride, rent quads & mountain bikes, zip-line, paddle board, fish blue or fresh water, cruise for dolphins, cave dive, visit animal sanctuaries & in season watch turtles nesting or whales. Just for kids you have a skate park, Nosara Kids Camp, Day Camp, tennis, mini-golf & dirt-biking. There's so much in a 1/2 mile radius. Ostional (8m north) is a must to watch 10,000s of turtles laying eggs (Oct-Jan) & hatching (Dec-Mar)
Just around the corner is the main hub of Guiones, 15-20 mins at a stroll via the 'jungle path'. It has everything you might need: wide variety of restaurants & bars, surf schools, drugstore, medical clinic, bank, car, quad & cycle rental, souvenirs, bakery, organic food, massage services even a tattoo studio & tennis courts. Heading the other way for a few mins you have the Bodhi Tree for classes & instructor tuition.
ON THE INSIDE
The house is three storey, connected by a spiral staircase so working from the top down:
The 3/F is BR1; there’s a vast & very comfortable master/honeymoon suite taking up the entire top floor. You truly get away from it all even with a houseful of company. It has a custom, Balinese inspired king bed, queen bed, furniture, & matching decor. The en-suite comprises his & hers sinks, shower plus a generous walk-in closet. There’s AC, ceiling fans, high timber ceilings, a large balcony overlooking the pool, & a second dual aspect balcony.

BR3 is for sharing & for kids; generously proportioned with 2 twin over full bunks, storage plus a desk & smart TV. Again it has its own private terrace but small children should be supervised as there’s a drop beyond railings to the ground floor garden. These two bedrooms share a bathroom & open onto a small vestibule off the main living area.
The open living / kitchen space establishes Casa De La Luna’s comfortable feel from the minute you arrive. There’s ample sofa seating, a smart TV, Blu-ray player, selection of movies, games & books for all ages. Two huge patio doors open out to the covered terrace & then the pool so you feel like you have indoor/outdoor living all in one. There's a third large patio door facing west to catch the night breeze. There's AC & three ceiling fans inside, two on the terrace & it’s actually great to sit in the evening with just the fans going, drawing in the cooler evening breeze & listening to the jungle at night.
The kitchen won't disappoint if you want to self-cater or love to cook. It’s modern, & spacious. It has all the amenities, including quality appliances; built-in stove/oven, fridge/freezer w/ice maker, dishwasher, blender & kitchenware. There’ll be a small stock of essential pantry items & water to get you off the ground. You'll find decent basic toiletries, a hairdryer, fire extinguisher, 1st aid kit, sewing kit, torches.
