Featured in Condé Nast Traveler and seen on the Today Show, Casa Mono Loco is an enchanting and special house inside the Los Suenos Resort and Marina. Designed by Costa Rica’s most renowned architect, Ronald Zurcher, it has a unique open-air layout, making it easy to fall in love with its breathtaking views of the bays of Jaco, Herradura and Nicoya. Not only is this luxury vacation rental set on its own private street in the exclusive Vista Tres Bahias gated community, it’s inside a private reserve that’s home to butterflies, sloths, capuchin monkeys, macaws, toucans and more of the birds for which Costa Rica is famous.

Wake up to the sounds of the monkeys and birds calling to each other on the grounds of the villa—a virtual botanical garden that’s tended by staff. Sip a cool refreshment on the pool deck as the villa’s private chef prepares your meal. As the sun climbs higher, stretch out on a lounge chair to bask or have a swim in the infinity pool overlooking the hillside and the bay below. In the evenings, set the mood with the Sonos sound system as you heat up the barbecue for dinner—or order delivery from one of the six Los Suenos Marina Village restaurants. There are several new Smart TVs in the living room and bedrooms to entertain in the evenings and, for your convenience, laundry facilities in the kitchen. Your stay at Casa Mono Loco includes a pass to the restaurant and private beach club and pool set aside for villa owners and their guests.

The villa’s focal point is a beautiful central pavilion with a thatched roof, open sides, sitting areas with invitingly rustic timber-based sofas, a glass-topped table for casual meals or games and a bar that’s open to the fully equipped, newly renovated kitchen, which is a joy to cook in. Stone columns and wood posts feel stately and sturdy, while orange and yellow wall tones are playful. Even the interior living spaces open to a lush interior courtyard and garden to bring the tropical landscape indoors.

Each of the three bedrooms at Casa Mono Loco has an en-suite bathroom and stunning views of Herradura Bay. In the main house, there are two bedrooms with two double beds each, one of which opens directly to the terrace. The two suites are located on opposite sides of the house and separated by the interior courtyard for added privacy. The master suite, which has a king bed, is located in a stand-alone casita so you can take a mini-honeymoon or romantic getaway during your vacation. Relax on the large private furnished terrace and sink into the daybed that looks directly out to sea. While in any of the three bedrooms, you can opt to listen to birdsong or stream music through the wireless speakers.

Though Casa Mono Loco feels as though it’s miles from the rest of the world, it’s just five minutes from the world famous Los Suenos Marina where sport fishing yachts are available for daily charter. The Marina is host to the annual Los Suenos Signature Triple Crown sponsored in January, February and March. This year, records were once again broken when over the nine days of competition an astounding 6,570 bill fish were released. Travelers from around the world come to vacation at Los Suenos to experience this Pacific fishery that produces some the most highly sought after sailfish and marlin bites on the planet.

In addition to the Marina, you can always explore the shops, restaurants and spa, in the Los Suenos Marina Village. Or, book a tee-time at Los Suenos' eco friendly Marriott La Iguana Golf course. If you’d like to see more of the area, make the six mile drive to the beach town of Jaco or the eleven mile drive to Playa Hermosa. At the end of your stay, plan on a fifty-three mile drive from the casa to Juan Santamaria Airport.
