Description

Casa Helena is a wonderful home for couples or small groups to enjoy time in Costa Rica's amazing southern pacific zone. Guests will be close to all of the amazing nature that Costa Rica has to offer (howler monkeys, toucans, scarlet macaws, flowers, fruit trees, etc) and be close to some of the fun and entertainment that Ojochal offers - amazing restaurants, friendly bars and live music.

The newly paved road in Ojochal provides a smooth arrival to Casa Helena. No need to rent a 4x4

This is a great home with views of the Talamanca mountains, which rise above Ojochal.

This newly expanded home has two bedrooms - one on the main floor and one upstairs. Each bedroom has air conditioning and plenty of space. The upstairs bedroom has an en-suite bathroom and walkout to the second-floor patio or yoga zone.

The private outdoor courtyard and private pool is where most guests spend the majority of their time, when they aren't out exploring the nearby beaches (Playa Tortuga and Playa Ventanas), volunteering at Reserva Playa Tortuga (want to help protect the turtles? They are always looking for day-volunteers), ziplining through the jungle, watching whales or bird-watching or enjoy the nearby restaurants.

There is a large, open-air loft upstairs that captures the full view of the magnificent Mountain View. It is a great place to practice (or to learn) yoga, enjoy your morning coffee or simply relax in. We can help line up a private yoga instructor or private masseuse if you want the ultimate privacy and pampering. This is accessible from either the upstairs Owner's Suite or from the outside spiral staircase.
