3 Bedroom Villa in Garabito, Atenas

CASA LA FRONTERA DEL CIELO (The House Next To Heaven)
The Only One With Spectacular Views Of Mountains AND Pacific Ocean/Gulf of Nicoya
*** We are thrilled to share some exciting news with everyone considering a stay at our beautiful coffee-plantation villa in Atenas! We have just completed a full renovation of our pool area, including a brand new surface for both the pool and the surrounding deck, featuring an elegant non-slip finish. This upgrade is designed to enhance your experience and make your stay even more enjoyable! ***
You will believe it only when you see it! While the photos posted here provide a glimpse of the beauty, nothing compares to seeing the nearly 360 degrees of panoramas in person! This house sits standing watch at the top of a mountain, at an altitude of over 3200 feet, above the town of Atenas overlooking the great western valley that extends all the way to the Pacific Ocean. Located as it is at 'Heaven's doorstep', it has the most astonishing views found in Central America available right out of your living room, day or night. Not only can you see the Costa Rican lush (possessing all conceivable shades of green!) rainforest from most of the perimeter of the property, but can also take in the Pacific coast and ocean from your pool. Enjoy your very own private garden teeming with wildlife, vivid tropical flora and fruit trees including avocado, lemon, mango, banana, plantain, guava, coffee and other exotic delicacies. Watch and listen to the local wild birds as they sing and flit from tree to tree in the grove behind the house. (You'll be astounded at how close the little chicks get when they pay you a visit at the pool during one of Costa Rica's gentle rains.) Enjoy the soothing breezes from your hammock in the front of the house, or in the house’s unique reading room which allows you, while staying indoors, to enjoy the cross wind that comes up one side of the mountain and down the other. [National Geographic named Atenas as having the BEST climate in the world. Experience it for yourself!] And the vistas don’t quit. You can still drink them in during the unparalleled experience of your very own private 'jacuzzi with a view', or while bar-b-queuing or dining al fresco in the house’s veranda.
The house, which sleeps four to six people* (see below for details*), is itself an architectural marvel. The striking wrought iron winding staircase and railings naturally draw your eyes to the dramatic twenty-foot-high wood ceilings in the main house. The kitchen’s silver and gold-veined marble counters invite you to join your other guests to sit and share in a meal or cocktails. The open design of the reading room, with its large windows that make you feel like you are outside while still indoor, provides a road map to relaxation. Excellently appointed throughout, the house’s two bedrooms and three bathrooms are, likewise, marked by impressive attention to detail as evidenced by exquisite marble and wood finishes, and finely crafted furniture and fixtures.
**** We request that groups booking a stay at our property numbering over four individuals rent the casita in the back of the property in addition to the main house. Please note that access to the casita which you can see in some of the photos of the back of the property is NOT automatically granted to rentals of groups of four or less guests. The casita can be rented for a Flat Fee of $350.00 per booking - regardless of the length of stay. Groups numbering six or more guests are, without exceptions, required to rent the casita in addition to the main villa. ***
We suggest that our guests sample the following at least one evening during their stay with us: try the Jacuzzi while turning the outside lights off. On a cloudless night this will prove to be a truly transcendental experience. The beauty of the nighttime sky at our location on the mountaintop is striking. You will swear you can just stretch your hand and touch the ancient astronomers’ celestial sphere. (A sneak preview can be seen in one of our posted photos.) It’s one way to find out why we are named The House Next To Heaven.
A five minute drive to Atenas, but also, given its central location in the country, it is close to most of the main attractions in Costa Rica: including its volcanoes, butterfly gardens, rainforests equipped with canopy tours and zip lines waiting for you to explore them and, yes, it’s within driving distance of the famous Pacific coast beaches. Multiple tours in the area allow for boating, white water rafting, hiking, horseback riding, and so much more. For those seeking culture, Escazú (a sophisticated bilingual area of fabulous restaurants, stores, exclusive boutiques, English language bookstores and movies) is also a 45-minute drive away.
Explore Casa La Frontera del Cielo's location utilizing the interactive map application. Also, once you book with us, we will provide you with a link that will allow you to to see its close vicinity to all the local popular attractions!
You may also check out the interactive map on our Facebook page.
While there, view our slide show 'A Day at Casa La Frontera del Cielo'.
As an additional service to our house guests, we offer a fee-based airport pick up and drop-off to help you avoid the potential hassles involved in the transitions into and out of your time in Costa Rica (something to particularly consider when you have night-time travel plans, but a nice comfort to have in any event). We also provide car rentals and tours to all corners of the country, including the Poas and Arenal volcanoes, a 'crocodile tour' to Jaco, a tour to the La Paz Waterfall gardens, and tours custom made to our guests' requests throughout Costa Rica.
Your very own sanctum of peace in the middle of a rainforest paradise, the very next thing to being in Nirvana: Casa Frontera del Cielo, The House Next To Heaven …

Summary: The view from the house was AMAZING!! The house was very clean and well stocked with everything you need. It was so enjoyable to soak in the hot tub or pool and listen to the sounds of nature and watch the many birds that visited us. Klaus and Sandra were the best. Very helpful and didn't steer us wrong on the excursions. The coffee plantation was very interesting and educational The waterfalls and gardens were beautiful. It was our first time to Costa Rica and was well worth the visit!
