About this property

The Sloth Experience Beach /Pool/ Fireplace/Birdwatching Deck/Bikes/ Jacuzzi

The Sloth Houses are seperate houses with this one price. These houses were designed for style, comfort, convenience, natural environmental consideration and our privacy located just 300 meters from the black sand beach of Playa Negra. Enjoy the close convenience of being .7 kilometes from Puerto Viejo, but you feel you are in the jungle, as you are.
It's a jungle out here, as you mostlikely will enjoy Sloths in the trees most days along with all other wildlife here on our property.
The houses space-
Enjoy room temperature inside the house stays comfortable day and night, as it was specially designed to stay cool using earthen construction and an open-air design to catch the Caribbean breezes. All windows and doors are screened from outside elements. The roof constructed of natural thatch palm leaves, which reflect the sun rays also keeping the house cool. The Barro house was actually constructed from the earth. We used the earth dirt we excavated from our private swimming pool and conconstructed the walls of the home. This earthen building has been a great feature to keep a natural look and accomplimentary feel of nature.
You can view this look by seeing the pictures of the listing.

Incredibly!
This property is even more beautiful than the pictures! Jeff was incredibly helpful and accommodating. The homes were beautifully decorated and the beds and linens were fantastic. The observation deck and poolside fore were our favorite part! We would absolutely stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Jeff Murdoch

Host profile image
I have lived in Cost Rica for 10 years. Enjoying the freedom of living in the tropics and the joy of meeting so many people from other places. Hosting guests is a great reward of constructing this custom home myself, for you.

Why they chose this property

I constructed this home as a vacation home. If I were to vacation here, what would I and others look for. Nature and comfort. I think we accomplished this. With a swimming pool to enjoy the wildlife all around you and the view of over 30 foot bird/ wildlife from our observation deck, you are assured to be amongst the tropical paradise.

What makes this property unique

Private swimming pool
Bird watching - wildlife observation deck.
Cool temperature of interior of home constructed roof from native palm leaf materials. This is a very rare find in Costa Rica.
