“The BEST Experience!”

Reviewed 29 May 2013

We stayed with Deb and Rob in Feb. 2013. They were they best hosts we could ever ask for! This is by far the best Bed and Breakfast we have ever stayed at. Their home was so beautiful, and the views were absolutely breathtaking. And the food was great too! This was our favorite place we stayed in Costa Rica!

We try to help guests feel welcome and comfortable and will continue meeting those goals as we share our property. Stay happy and well and maybe we... More

“Great everything”

Reviewed 20 April 2013

My husband and I spent only one night at The Oasis, but Rob and Deb made our stay a memorable one. Great company, great food, great comfort and wonderful birds. And in the morning, while enjoying the huge variety of birds, I saw two white face monkeys. Their back deck is a haven. NOTE: If you follow Rob's directions to... More

Now that you mention "Great", you two were Great Guests!. Easy going, lovers of nature and a perfect fit for our little world out here in the middle of nowhere.

I had the good fortune to connect with Rob and Deb via the internet prior to my first trip to Costa Rica in January of 2013. I stayed near the San Jose airport the first night, but spent my second and third nights at their home. Their hacienda is an easy drive from Esparza and absolutely drop dead gorgeous when... More

WE are the fortunate ones! YOU walked into our home and we knew instantly we were going to become friends for life. Similar perspectives on what is important in life: Relaxation, hammock time, laughter, flexibility and not sweating the small stuff (ugh, water is shut off!), cold beer, some decent food, intelligent conversation and a few hugs thrown in for...

Knowing that Deb & Rob were waiting for us helped us have such a relaxing day at the beach. Their home was welcoming and they went out of their way to make us feel at home and comfortable. Views of the sunset are amazing, and a cooling swim in the pool revived us to go out for a seafood dinner.... More

“Wonderful introduction to Costa Rica”

Reviewed 20 January 2013

We stayed with Deb and Rob on the first night of our week-long trip to Costa Rica. We picked their place because it seemed like it was a good stopping point on the way to the Monteverde Cloud Forest. It was! They had a tasty dinner waiting for us, a pleasant, clean, and private bedroom, and in the morning, we... More

Great hospitality both human and canine (feline, as well). Rob and Deb have a beautifully decorated place, and are very generous with their time, cooking savy, and knowledge about Costa Rica. The location is excellent for making day trips to much of the north of the country, with all of its amazing natural features.
