Beautiful mountain retreat with year round temperature of 72° F. Surrounded by forest and nature, this amazing property is located in the Orosi Valley, with its rain forests, volcanoes, hills and valleys lined with rows of coffee plants and sugar cane, the Orosi region offers one of the richest sceneries to be found in Costa Rica. This region is also rich in history and has a number of monuments to the past, including a colonial capital founded in 1563 and archeological excavations that date back to 1000 B.C. Although this area was one of the first in the country to be settled, it has been one of the last to be developed for tourism. Completely private yet minutes away from a hospital, Walmart, and large American style shopping mall. You may have heard that water is the next oil.
