About this property

Beautiful Beach-Front Home ... Ocean View... Private & Quiet. NOW with STARLINK!

NOW with STARLINK reliable high speed Internet/wifi, and A/C in downstairs bedroom.

Spend your vacation living in close harmony with nature in this beautiful octagonal oceanfront home. The home offers two nicely decorated bedrooms - each with its own private bathroom. There is one very large bedroom upstairs and one downstairs for complete privacy. The upstairs also has a walk in closet with a sink and small refrigerator. The kitchen has a lovely bar to the patio.

The upstairs bedroom is huge, more like a studio apartment than just a bedroom. With screened windows all around, you will feel you are living among the trees. This bedroom has its own mini-kitchen, refrigerator, full bathroom, and a safe for valuables. In addition to the queen bed, this room also has a convertible sofa bed (with two real single mattresses) that can sleep two more. In this room you will awake to gorgeous sunrises over the ocean, perhaps with howler monkeys in the trees outside.

The downstairs bedroom is conveniently located at ground level for those who may prefer to avoid stairs. Now with A/C. The windows are screened to allow all the ocean breezes to flow right through. Wake up and step outside to the covered patio, where you will enjoy your morning coffee with a peaceful view of the ocean just steps away! The entire home is set like a jewel in a dramatic rock formation on the edge of the ocean. Iguanas sun themselves amid the tropical plantings, and monkeys often can be seen in the trees.

The home is located in a private, quiet area with only three other homes nearby. Stroll down the road to find a sparkling river that empties into the ocean. Before that a lovely 8 foot waterfall cascades into a clean, fresh-water swimming lagoon with a rope-swing for the kids. Kids of all ages will also love exploring the tide pools among the rock formations.

Of course, there is also a beautiful sandy beach for those who prefer sunbathing, snorkeling, or ocean swimming. Good news for fishing enthusiasts, this is one of the best fishing spots around, so bring your gear! We do provide basic fishing reels. Do you prefer surfing? A quick 5-minute walk from the house will take you to the Los Cedros surf break (boards may be rented in town).

One of the best attributes of this rental is that you can avoid the expense of a rental car because the local shuttle bus runs close by the house. And if you like, it is a easy 20 minute walk to Montezuma. Catch the bus in one direction to get to Montezuma with its shops, restaurants, and nightlife. In the other direction you will find the small sleepy village of Cabuya, and the world-famous Cabo Blanco Absolute Nature Preserve. Whether you prefer wildlife viewing or snorkeling, surfing or fishing, nightlife or peace and quiet, Las Rocas truly offers something for everyone. When you close your eyes and picture your perfect vacation, Las Rocas has what you dream about.

Perfect oasis

We absolutely loved staying at this magical property. The beach out front has a small space for swimming, which is perfect because nobody else was ever there. Sitting outside in the shaded area to read was particularly peaceful. The place is rustic and yet very well stocked for all your needs. We loved sleeping upstairs in the open space with a few fans. We shared the space with some lovely animals, and had so much fun feeding the hermit crabs, and playing with the puppy visiting from next door. We did have to drive for dinners, but that worked out fine. The restaurants the hosts recommended were truly delicious and special. An amazing stop on our honeymoon trip.

Unique Gem

Beautiful and unique place to stay in Montezuma. Surrounded by wildlife and the ocean and close to amenities. The house had everything we needed and the property manager was so accessible and super helpful. I would recommend this lovely gem to anyone staying in the area.

Amazing location between montezuma and cabuya

We had a wonderful time! It really is a spectacular location, feels private, and has great beaches within walking distance. The house itself has such a great vibe - you will feel like you are one with nature here - so fun for the kids with all of the lizards and hermit crabs wandering on the property. The towns of montezuma and cabuya are both a very short drive away with amazing restaurants. Highly recommend!

Beautiful

Everything was great. We mostly stayed at the property, but did go to Montezuma a few times to buy produce and visit restaurants. We bought fish from a guy on the side of the road and spent a lot of time in hammocks. The man next door was really friendly and didn't seem to mind that i didn't understand a word of Spanish! I came here to see monkeys and saw so many monkeys at the property.

Amazing location!

We loved our stay at the beautiful property just outside of Montezuma. The peace from the front porch, hammocks, and garden area is incomparable, as is waking up each morning to gorgeous views of the ocean! Enjoy the stars at night from the rocks just in front of the house. We highly recommend this property which is close enough to everything you might want in Montezuma (restaurants, yoga, shops) but far enough to be super tranquil. It very much gets you in the pura vida spirit that is Costa Rica!

Great House! Great Location!

We were very pleased with our recent stay. The house location was exactly what we wanted. Far enough away from town to be peaceful and quiet but close enough that we could take advantage of everything in Montezuma. Tad was very easy to work with during the booking process, even accommodating a last minute change on our end. The check in process was easy. We met Lynn onsite and she explained everything about the house and gave us plenty of pointers on things to do during our stay. Overall we couldn't be more pleased with our stay.

Love love love!

We loved our stay at Casa Las Rocas! The listing and reviews are totally accurate. The home is so unique and has such a beautiful vibe. We cooked all of our meals in the lovely kitchen with the perfect outdoor eating space. The view and nature is spectacular! We woke up to Howler monkeys most mornings! Lynn the onsite property manager was very helpful before the trip, providing guidance and recommendations via WhatsApp and she met us at the property to explain things. We visited over Semana Santa (Easter) weekend so things were busier than usual, including the campsite nearby but we quickly adjusted. I would highly recommend this location to anyone looking for a local, nature filled Costa Rican adventure! Thank you, Tad!

Oceanfront retreat. Serenity, sunsets and solitude

This property is the perfect oceanfront retreat, yet easily accessible to the wonderful village of Montezuma. The compound is large and private, the monkeys and iguanas provide endless jungle entertainment. The evenings are so simple and magical, listening to the waves, enjoying quiet time with friends or family on the terrace, and watching awe inspiring tropical storms from the terrace or upstairs bedroom. It is a place to get back in touch with nature, and yourself. It has a well equipped kitchen and games, cards etc. which we enjoyed together in the evenings. We highly recommend the restaurant called "Cocolores" in Montezuma. The Italian cuisine was the very best I've encountered and rivals anything I've had in Florence, Rome or Naples! We brought several of their entrees and side dishes home each eve to enjoy on the peaceful terrace here at Las Rocas. The owners, Tad and Jana were very helpful, as was the property manager, Leanne and her husband, providing lots of information about the local area, the beaches and good hikes. We loved the canopy zip line over Montezuma Waterfalls. If you are looking for a magical, natural setting, and enjoy privacy, ocean, and simplicity, this is your place.

Jungle House Living!

Our stay at this property was great! Starting with the booking and communication with the property owner. We always heard back very quickly if we had any questions. We were met at the property by Lynn, the property manager upon arrival and she was always more than willing to help with anything or answer any questions that we had about the surrounding area. She even made a special trip to bring coals for the BBQ so that we could cook up our fresh caught fish (caught out front). Montezuma is a quaint village and we enjoyed either walking 25 minutes into town (very scenic) or getting a taxi for 8USD. On days that we didn't go into town we enjoyed spending time at the nearby beach, fishing with the locals or hiking to waterfalls - also very near to the house. The house itself has everything that you need. The reason for only giving 4 stars for property description though was that we were expecting a washing machine but did not see anything available to guests while we were there. We visited in February and the heat was pretty intense. Thank goodness for the newly installed A/C in the downstairs bedroom. It was wonderful! Unfortunately, our friends who were sleeping upstairs found the heat and lack of significant breeze hard to sleep with. Keep this in mind if planning a trip during the hottest months. Other than that it was a great experience that we would definitely recommend to others who are looking for something unique and truly authentic Costa Rican.

Nature Lovers Dream

We had an amazing time at this amazing, off the beaten path home. Perfect place to get away from it all and enjoy nature. Leanne and Ron were super helpful, providing us with a huge list of recommendations and suggestions. Ron even met us late on arrival night to guide us to the property. Like the description says, you will see and hear tons of wildlife. We enjoyed the monkeys, geckos, iguanas, bats, hummingbirds, hermit crabs, and even the neighbors chickens and dogs. This place is best described as a remote jungle home, right on the beach, yet still close enough to Montezuma for meals, excursions, etc. We had the nearby beach/river to ourselves most days. We do recommend a high clearance vehicle like an SUV for all the potholes and rough gravel/dirt roads. If taking alternate transportation to Montezuma, we would recommend renting an ATV for the week to get around. We rented one for one day and took it to Santa Teresa and beyond to visit multiple beaches. Highly recommended and can't wait to visit again.

We had a wonderful family stay in this beautiful spot. You will find Leanne and Ron super helpful in taking care of all your needs and small details like information, maintenance, etc. The property is somewhat off Montezuma, so it's pretty isolated, very quiet and with lots of animals - a unique experience for nature lovers.. Thank you, we hope to come again!

Rustic beach casa

We stayed in a wide variety of places while touring Costa Rica. This house was a welcome change to the air conditioned resort in Manuel Antonio. It was peaceful and quiet (except for the birds and monkeys) and exactly like advertised. It is a little remote, but that is what we were looking for. Pura vida!

Authentic Costa Rican home

My husband and I stayed in this house for a week. It is a perfect location if you want an authentic nature type home. There’s no AC but they provide plenty of fans and it gets low enough temp in the evenings that you never feel too hot. Make sure you use the bug net canopy around the bed in upstairs room for extra protection from bugs while you sleep. We never had a bug issue though. We had gotten a big can of OFF and used about two sprays the whole trip. It’s close enough to town that we would drive in town for every meal. You absolutely do need a 4x4 vehicle though. Preferable one that sits high lol Montezuma has a lot of dirt roads and a lot of pot holes. We loved this home so much. We saw howler monkeys above the house on three mornings. They just say up in the trees eating their breakfast and watching us. So cute. Stay here if you want to be close to everything and you want to visit the cute town of Montezuma. We flew into Tambor airport. Super convenient to get to this home. Thanks Leanne, for being awesome and super attentive with any questions I had. We’ll be back!

Ultimate Relaxation Location

This house and location are amazing! The listing is as shown and the manager/host made sure we had everything we needed for an amazing stay. There is so much to do and see in the area, but we found that the property was so beautiful, it was hard to leave. What absolutely fantastic memories we will have from this experience. Everyone in Montezuma was friendly and helpful. It is a nice quiet little town without being totally isolated from activities. This is a perfect choice for those who love outdoor activities in a beautiful setting.

magical secluded and serene nature lovers retreat

Fantastic experience all around.. as long as you can due without AC ( the breeze and fans were plenty for us). This home is amazing and we are already wanting to come back. It literally is paradise. We had wanted to explore the area more ( so many options to do for day trips! ) but found ourselves so content to relax in the tide pools directly in front of the house and explore on foot the coast that we almost couldn't pull ourselves away from the home. The home is Well maintained, and stocked with all the little amenities that made our trip run smoothly ..Leanne the manager has thought of everything and is super responsive to any question or advice you may need. The area has plenty to do and see without feeling touristy at all..authentic and friendly location. One night we watched monkeys with their babies play in the trees over the house and the next night we saw an anteater! A comfortable nature lovers paradise! 5 stars
