As the owner, I will be interactive with you throughout the booking process and your stay. On site, Eddy and Marina are our caretakers. Marina will clean the house, make the beds, wash dishes. She is a fabulous cook and is happy to prepare meals for a fee (details are in my Welcome Packet). Eddy will clean the pool, connect the back up generator if necessary, remove trash. They are very dedicated and I am proud that they work together to make sure clients have an enjoyable vacation. Marina is taking English classes but is fluent in G Translate :) Our dog, Petey, will also be on hand to make you smile. Finally, we have a property manager who is available to assist you with translations, reservations or to address any problems that may arise. Together, we form a solid support team! The Sea House is nestled in the Paradise Bay gated community. There are minimal homes with lots of green space for exploring. During certain seasons, you will see whales breeching in the bay below you and hear howler monkeys in the trees down below. Early morning birds will greet you daily. Your vacation is about you. I guarantee you will be able to decompress from your hectic life if you chose to sit by the pool for a few days. But if you want action, then you're in luck! Ziplining, horseback riding, surfing are nearby or you can visit an active volcano in Masaya, mesmerizing colonial Granada, swim in a lake formed in an ancient volcano called Laguna de Apoyo. My Welcome Packet contains recommendations of fun things to do in the town of SJDS ... just not enough space here. Getting to town is a 20 minute walk which would be great if you are craving some exercise. Otherwise, I'd recommend renting a vehicle or using a taxi. Travel time with vehicle is about 6 minutes. Note: Paradise Bay is a gated community so you will need to pass thru the gate keeper. My Welcome Packet lists recommended transportation services. SJDS is such a fun town with restaurants and bars facing the bay and on the surrounding streets. It can get super noisy which adds to the festive vacation vibe. The beauty of The Sea House is that we are super close to town so you can wake up to the sound of monkeys and birds instead of street vendors. Your wake up view is that of the Pacific Ocean and Costa Rica. Note regarding what to pack: dress for comfort not to impress. No need for fancy clothes, shoes or jewelry. Focus on sundresses, sandals, bathing suits, loose button downs, tee shirts, shirts, sneakers, sunscreen. Guests enjoy full private use of the house, pool, parking lot. Rates are based on the number of occupants, which is strictly enforced. Additional guests are required to make additional payment. Notes Regarding Pricing: The Base Rate is $175 per night for 2 people; then the rate increases $25 per person per night. Long term rental discounts are offered. Holiday rates are as shown on the calendar. Christmas rate is $500 flat fee. If you'd like to see a youtube video we created after a family vacation check out: (URL HIDDEN) or search it "The Sea House, San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua" I am available via email just about 24/7 before, during and after your stay. My property manager will contact you prior to your arrival to arrange your transport and intro to the house. Our caretakers live on site and will be at your disposal to cook, clean and make sure you have a fantastic vacation. The beauty of the Sea House is that you will feel secluded as you are surrounded by palm trees and flowering bushes and potted plants. Your lounge will overlook the hillside and ocean. Your truck is parked in our neighboring, landscaped parking lot and your job will be to chill out :) You'll wake up to the birds and maybe the monkeys. You will be a 5 minute drive to town but have the privilege of choosing party time or quiet time. Really is the best of both worlds :) Unless you are super athletic, you will want to rent a vehicle. The walk to town is never as challenging as the walk back up to the house :) If you have a vehicle you can zip up and down to town multiple times a day no worries. I recommend hiring a private transport from the airport to the house. Then you can rent a vehicle in town so you are guaranteed to get to where you want to be pronto. I can assist you in making all of these arrangements. ---Covid Update: Produce proof of vaccines or a Covid Negative Test Result no older than 72 hours to enter the country.
