Casa Cusinga

Location

San Buenas, Puntarenas, Costa Rica

Short Description

Modern home adjacent to jungle full of wildlife, minutes from Ojochal

Description

Casa Cusinga is named after the beautiful and somewhat rare 'Cusinga' bird.
This beautifully designed, and newly constructed home (2014) sleeps up to 10 people, including the loft space. It is nestled next to the jungle in San Buenaventura de Osa (a small town just off of the paved Costanera Highway). Throughout most times of the year you can hear the stream that runs 100 feet behind
the property.

Enjoy all the sounds that a Costa Rica jungle has, including toucans, howler monkeys and dozens of species of birds.

You can see the driving range of San Buenas Golf Resort which is located within walking distance of this home.

The open floor plan, LED lighting, outdoor Jacuzzi (also with LED lighting) make this a wonderful place to getaway from it all!

Casa Cusinga lleva el nombre del hermoso y algo raro pájaro “Cusinga”.
Esta casa bellamente diseñada y recién construida (2014) tiene capacidad para 10 personas, incluido el espacio tipo loft. Está ubicada junto a la selva en San Buenaventura de Osa (un pequeño pueblo junto a la carretera pavimentada Costanera). Durante la mayoría de las épocas del año, puede escuchar el arroyo que corre a unos 30 metros detrás de la propiedad.

Disfruta de todos los sonidos que tiene la selva de Costa Rica, incluidos tucanes, monos aulladores y decenas de especies de aves.

Puede observar el campo de prácticas de San Buenas Golf Resort que se encuentra a poca distancia de esta hermosa casa.

El plano de planta abierta, la iluminación LED, el jacuzzi al aire libre (también con iluminación LED) hacen de este un lugar maravilloso para escapar de todo.

I loved this place and it’s was beautiful but no A/C or inside table to eat , there’s one outside but at night it’s hard to eat with the mosquito, there’s no hot water..

Marie (review from Airbnb)
Nous avons été un peu déçus de ce logement
Il n’y avait personne pour nous accueillir et nous dire où se trouvaient les clés de la maison donc on a attendu devant sans pouvoir rentrer et par chance une voiture de l’agence passait par là à ce moment-là et nous a aidé !

Globalement la maison est grande, spacieuse et équipée mais nous avons quelques remarques à faire :
- il n’y avait pas d’eau chaude dans les douches
- le jacuzzi ne fonctionnait pas
- un matin alors que nous dormions, on a entendu du bruit dehors et il y avait un monsieur qui venait nettoyer la piscine (on a pas été prévenu)
- la vaisselle était sale avec des taches
- sèche linge qui ne fonctionne pas

Et il faut savoir que les baies vitrées du salon n’ont pas de volets donc si vous aimez l’intimité, vous n’en aurez pas
Et la maison est toute ouverte donc on a l’impression d’être dehors et la nuit il y a beaucoup de bruits qui empêchent de dormir

Piscine très agréable cependant

Bref expérience mitigée

It was secluded and felt like you were in the jungle you would wake up and hear all the sounds in the morning.
No air conditioning that was my fault because it says it has no air conditioning just ceiling fans.
But the property itself is in very poor condition. When arriving, there were so many bugs inside the house I would think that they would fumigate this before someone would arrive it was a dealbreaker for me. Our first problem was that the remote had been chewed and was not working. It took a day and a half to have someone replace it. The swimming pool was filthy and couldn’t find the skimmer so we could clean it, that also took a day and a half for someone to bring us a skimmer. But the very worst was the 2nd day I tried to do laundry the washer seems new and worked fine but when it came to drying the clothes, it wouldn’t start. It would only make this humming sound. so checking further behind the dryer, I noticed that the air duck where the carbon monoxide should be exited outside wasn’t even hooked up so I was very grateful that the dryer wasn’t working who knows what could’ve happened.

If you are used to warm showers don't stay here
The property has no hot water which is not anywhere on the listing. When asked about this I received no answer. Pool water is warmer than the showers. Additionally, the bottom door lock was broken and brought up to management. No response to that question either. It is also a bit remote if you need anything. 15-20 to Ojachal and 30 to Uvita.

Excellent experience in the small community of San Buenas! The house is nestled up against the jungle, with lost of wildlife and nature to enjoy! The design of the house makes you feel like you are one with nature! Monkeys, Birds, Butterflies, lizards, bugs, etc.... you never know what you might see?..... loved my stay!
