About this Vacation Rental Home:
Welcome to Casa-BandA! Location: Nosara, Guanacaste, Costa Rica, Central America (80 miles/125 kilometers from Liberia (LIR) Airport) Accommodations: 6 Apartments, Rented together or separately Reward yourself with life on the hill overlooking Playa Pelada and the Pacific Ocean.These apartments are fully equipped for comfortable living.Walk to the beaches of Playa Pelada, Guiones or Nosara - or take a dip in the pool. On top of the hill above Playa Pelada – where the view is the best and the breezes keep you cool - you will find the Casa-BandA complex behind the white walls. We don’t get a lot of traffic up here, so it is quiet and peaceful – that is as quiet as nature allows you. Colorful birds are frequent guests, and the howler monkeys are usually not far away. Sometimes they are close enough to be watched from your own balcony. Other, more quiet, wild life comes around too, reminding you that the jungle is not far away. Behind the wall with locked gates in the front and the tall fences on the three other sides, you will be in your own little and very private world, only sharing the space with guests in the other apartments. We know of several friendships that have been formed and rekindled at Casa-BandA. To be sure that you will find a truly relaxing and peaceful atmosphere among other adults, guests must be 18 or older to reside at or visit Casa-BandA, something. our many returning guests appreciate. The Casa-BandA complex consists of six apartments which can be rented in any combination, either individually or together for a group. In total, we have room for 16 people. This would be the perfect place for your family or friends reunion or for your ‘Special Interest Group’. Should your group be larger than we can accommodate, we can arrange for more lodging very close by. “Banda" - Large Apartment. Two bedrooms. Two Full Baths. Sleeps 4. Kitchen. Optional A/C.

You will want to forget all about the “real world” outside the walls, but if you need to connect to it, we have high speed wireless (secure) internet connection for your lap top. All but one apartment also have telephones for local calls, including all of Costa Rica. Each apartment also has a small, but growing, library of books. Outdoors, the six apartments share the charcoal BBQ and rancho (pool house) with plenty of seating and room for lounging. The large kidney shaped pool (which is the largest privately owned pool in the area), the very lush and private garden, the parking area and the laundry room are also shared by the six units of Casa-BandA. We grow our own papayas, bananas and plantains, and when the trees and bushes are old enough to bear fruit, we will also have limes, oranges, mangoes, and avocado. Please ask the gardener to let you know when there is ripe fruit for you to enjoy. It is usually placed in the laundry room to keep the animals from enjoying it first. Most of the apartments have balconies with very open railing and are therefore not suitable for small children. Older children, however, will love the pool and the 10-15 minute walk to the beach or to the mouth of Rio Nosara for swimming, fishing and shell collecting. (Coming back takes a bit longer, because some of it is up-hill.) You can walk to Playa Pelada and Playa Guiones year round, and in the dry season it is possible to walk across Rio Nosara at the river mouth to Playa Nosara. It takes us 10-12 minutes to walk down to playa Pelada, about ½ mile, when we go out the back gate. Coming back takes a little longer because part of it is uphill. Walking over to Playa Guiones takes an extra 20 minutes on the beach – but you are on the beach!! Also within walking distance: LaGarta Lodge, La Luna Restaurant, Olga’s Bar & Restaurant, Pancho’s Market and Taverna, Monkey Quad Rentals, Leroy’s River Tours and Beate’s Horseback Riding Tours, and the fish market at Playa Pelada. Trucks with fruits/vegetables/eggs, frozen food, and baked goods come through the area each week in high season. A car or ATV will allow for exploring and more shopping in the village of Nosara, Guiones and beyond, but are not necessary for daily living. Very affordable Taxi service is also available in Nosara, $ 10-15 each way. Each apartment has pool towels available for your use, but please bring your own towels for the beach. Pets are not allowed anywhere on the property, and we do ask that you do not smoke inside any of the apartments.Dates Booked:
