"Oh, wow!" That's the typical expression of visitors who enter the front door of Casa Amapola for the first time.

• Imagine having your morning coffee here…
• View from the Terrace towards the Caribbean Sea

Casa Amapola is a modern custom-designed 3-bedroom home situated on 1 Ha of land. Every room looks out onto the spectacular scenery.

Lush tropical rainforest surrounds the home, yet it has views across the coastal plain to the Caribbean Sea. The landscaped grounds host a multitude of flowering trees and shrubs, and the orchard has a variety of fruit trees. It sits at an elevation of 200m. Cooling ocean breezes make air conditioning unnecessary.

The owners built the house in 2013 to North American standards. There is hot water throughout. The kitchen features granite countertops and stainless steel appliances: gas stove with convection oven, microwave, dishwasher and refrigerator with ice & water dispenser. The spacious master bathroom is a masterpiece with dual sinks, a rainfall shower, an oversize bathtub, private toilet, and a walk-in closet. The guest bedrooms are in a separate building. A covered breezeway connects it to the main house. Visitors have reported that the guest bathroom has the "best shower in all of Costa Rica".

Casa Amapola is the perfect spot for those seeking tranquility in a natural setting, while retaining all the comforts of civilization.
