ROOMS & RATES
CATEGORY 1
#1 - SPACIOUS - The MASTER SUITEWhy do we call this suite "SPACIOUS"?? You get to enjoy a:
Bedroom - 19 feet x 16 feet.
Bathroom - 13 feet x 11 feet.
Secluded Patio - 27 feet x 9 feet (693 sq.')
You have a KING size bed with a LUSCIOUS MEMORY FOAM topper (with a strap around it so you don't separate and rubber cups so you don’t go sliding. One person like a hard bed and the other softer? We can just put a Twin size foam piece on one side! Need 2 beds? We can separate them!!!! NOW that's paying attention to YOUR needs).
We also give you multiple pillows of varying firmnesses (soft, medium, hard & contour [ever been curious about contour pillows or memory foam beds? Now you can try them out!)!
When paying the FULL/non-discounted rate ($90/n) you receive sheets that are AT LEAST 400 tc!!
This bed and #2 and #3 are the FAVORITE BEDS where many people that normally don't sleep well or don't sleep very long tend to sleep REALLY WELL and LONGER!!!! (I'd bet most people's beds at home aren't so inviting!!)
The Master Suite includes a:
Cable TV (with MANY U.S./English channels from ABC, CBS, NBC, HGTV, Food Channel, CNN+++)
CD/Cassette Boombox
DVD player is also available (for free when paying the FULL $90/n price - +$5/day or $20/week if discounted).
The House of CONNECTIONS gives you some of the MOST SPECIAL TOUCHES/ AMENITIES we've ever found (especially in Costa Rica!!):
Dimmer Switch in the Bedroom AND the Bathroom (for ambiance!!!)
Wayyyy cool Light Switches from Haiti
Ceiling Fan
Night Lite (so you don’t go stubbing your toe in the middle of the night or open your eyes to wake up!)
Candle Holder with one set of tea candles
Clock Radio
Small Table and 2 Chairs
LOTS of Closet Space and colorful matching hangers and padlocks (IF you feel the need though hardly anyone has used the lock! Bring your own small padlock or borrow one of ours)
Pitcher of Water and 2 cups
The Spacious SECLUDED PATIO has a table & 2 chairs and we can bring in a Chaise Lounge
Even your Private BATHROOM is even REALLY SPACIOUS!! You have a:
BIDET (do not know how to use a bidet? Go tohttp://wikihow.com/Use-a-Bidet)
BATHTUB (note: The use of the bathTUB is an additional charge on all discounted rates. Inquire)
Separate LARGE SHOWER (big enough for 2!!) with
Organic Liquid Soap that can also be used as Shampoo in a Dispenser
Shower Mat (heck, most people don't even have that in their homes & go slippin' & sliding!), as well as a few
Floor Mats outside.
There is lots of lighting and a large bamboo framed mirror (Oscar did an AWESOME job at that didn't he?!?!).
We even give you a colored plastic cup for your toothbrush/toothpaste!
You even have not one but TWO sinks and LOTS of counter and cupboard space!!
Desiring PRIVACY? Especially because of the spaciousness of this suite, you could have your meals delivered from nearby restaurants and not come out for days!!
Even though it's overall quite tranquil here - it IS Costa Rica and you'll have your occasional neighborhood rooster or dogs or the national bird – the yigüirro – the traditionally comes out singing its lungs out what feels like 24/7 (though normally it starts around 3am outside your window [especially if you’re the type like me that is a REALLY light sleeper!!]. MOST people LOVE it!!!). Because your host Vicki is hyper-sensitive to noise and a light sleeper she likes thinking of you - we can provide you with FREE ear plugs (though so far no one's taken us up on the offer) and even have Sleeping Masks you can use if you like to siesta in the day or don't like getting woken at the crack of dawn (around 5am in Costa Rica!!). We're thinking about YOU!!!

When paying full price (ONLY) it also includes #6 - The Bridge as your own Sitting Room with a tv (note, the cable connection is not totally clear here on certain channels), desk and Double Futon.
The Sleeping Room has a:
Queen size Memory Foam BED that just molds to your body and has NO coils (not just the mattress! Coils are especially not healthy for you if you have any aches and pains or high blood pressure!! Most people I have know have had AMAZINGLY WONDERFUL reactions to being in this!)
The head of the bed faces North. In some practices in Feng Shui, North facing headboards stimulates personal growth, imagination, music, art, and inspiration.

Dimmer Switch
Ceiling Fan
Tiny Private Bathroom with Shower (if you're not paying for the full suite, you may be sharing the bathroom with whomever is in #6 [IF there's someone there])

CATEGORY 2
#3 - INSPIRATIONThat's how guests describe this recently enhanced 15 feet x 13 feet spacious room room with 2 windows looking out onto the sprawling gardens / grounds - bright, open, airy - a place that can REALLY INSPIRE you!!
Picture yourself waking up to this view? Or sitting at the table and chairs by the window writing your thoughts down?
It has 2 Twin beds that are typically pushed together and made into a King with a Memory foam mattress topper so you don't feel the separation and you bury yourself in the softness (or if one likes it harder & the other softer, we just take off one of the foam toppers for you). Whatever way YOU desire the bed, we'll do it for you!
#3 & #1 & #2 are the FAVORITE BEDS where many people that normally don't sleep well or don't sleep very long tend to sleep REALLY WELL & LONGER!!!! (I'd bet most people's beds at home aren't so inviting!!)
INSPIRATION also has a Ceiling Fan, dimmer switch, nice size side tables & lamps, candle holder, lots of closet space (with lock [or bring your own really small lock if you feel the need]) & a pitcher of Water & cups.
The head of the bed faces North. In some practices in Feng Shui, North facing headboards stimulates personal growth, imagination, music, art, and inspiration.
Though very few have had an issue with it, being the ULTRA light sleeper & hyper-sensitive to noise kinda gal I am, I feel it's important to mention that there can be some side street noise in this room (I haven't found many places in Latin countries that don't have much noise - whether it's the occasional neighborhood dog, rooster or car [mainly after around 6am] or piercing howler monkeys [no monkeys here!]) & mainly when you have your window open. To deal with this, we can provide you with free ear plugs and a sleeping mask if you'd like to use one.
This room shares Bathroom 4 with the Awakening Room (and occasionally Bedroom 6). It's a spacious room with a large shower for 2 and a bidet)
This room is spacious enough to add an additional twin bed (if staying 5 nights), futon or cot (for fewer nights) - $15/per person
REGULAR RATE: $65/n (complete).
See "FREE NIGHTS" Promo at the bottom for longer stays!
SUPER DUPER SPECIAL RATES*: $55/n (complete)
(*when booking/prepaying for 5+ nights, BY April 30, 2010. See below for additional stipulations).

CATEGORY 2
#4 - AWAKENINGThis SPACIOUS (15 feet x 13 feet) room has VERY SPECIAL energy with it's purple and fuscia decor!
Can you see yourself propped against the sturdy headboard surrounded by LOTS of pillows - looking out onto the lush gardens / grounds? Wouldn't you LOVE to wake up here?
A great time to go within and re-AWAKEN your Spirit as peace and calm is emphasized in this room.
You can have the bed made up as 2 Twin beds OR push them together and make them into a King and add a king size foam mattress topper.
AWAKENING has:
Small Table & 2 Chairs
Nice size End Tables and Lamps
Dimmer Switch
Nightlight (ever woke up in a strange place, confused on where you were??)
Candle Holder
Ceiling Fan
Large Locked Closet with lots of shelves (bring your own padlock or borrow one of ours)
Pitcher of Water & 2 cups
Inspiration shares a nice size BATHROOM with Awakening.
This is a pretty quiet room but if the occasional neighborhood dog, rooster or car bother you, we can provide ear plugs (I'm hyper-sensitive to noise hence why I think of such features though few have been bothered by it) and/or a sleeping mask if you'd like to use one.
An additional twin futon or cot can be brought into this room for $15/per person
REGULAR RATE: $65/n (complete).
See "FREE NIGHTS" Promo at the bottom for longer stays!
SUPER DUPER SPECIAL RATES*: $50/n (complete)
(*when booking/prepaying for 5+ nights, BY April 30, 2010. See below for additional stipulations).

CATEGORY 2
BEDROOM #5 - SECLUSION (aka ZEN)SECLUSION is away from it all (hidden off the Kitchen/Laundry Room area) hence VERY PRIVATE. This smaller (14 feet x 9 feet/126 sq') room now has 2 Twin Beds that can push together with a strap around it and a foam topper (so you don't feel the crease) to make into a King bed.
The head of the bed faces North. In some practices in Feng Shui, North facing headboards stimulates personal growth, imagination, music, art, and inspiration.
It also has a:
Ceiling Fan
End Tables and Lamps
Candle Holders (quite a few hanging and wall ones)
Table and Chairs
Dimmer Switch
Locked Closet with Locks (bring your own padlock or borrow one of ours)
SECLUSION also has a detached spacious PRIVATE BATHROOM with large walk-in shower for at least 2.
SECLUSION is Handicap Friendly/good for someone with minor Mobility issues and includes a bar in the shower and by the toilet.
REGULAR RATE: $65/n (complete).
See "FREE NIGHTS" Promo at the bottom for longer stays!
SUPER SPECIAL RATES*: $55/n-1-2 people (Need to save a few more dollars? You can pay just $50/n in Seclusion if you use another shower for hot showers [or yours if you don't need it hot - this is all because this shower is on a separate hot water tank that takes quite awhile to heat up] or if you're not a daily showerer, pay $5 each day you use it to heat it] - complete)
(*when booking/prepaying for 5+ nights, BY April 30, 2010. See below for additional stipulations).

Are things like REALLY COMFORTABLE BEDS, different firmnesses of mattresses (note that based on MY experience, the majority of the beds I've tried in Costa Rica have been HARD!! Also, "Orthopedic OFTEN means "Hard as a Rock!!!") & pillows (you get to choose from PLENTY of pillows in soft, medium, firm & even contour pillows!!! Ever wondered what they felt like or a memory foam bed? You can experience it here!!) & ATTENTION TO DETAILS important to you?

Like it hard? We can take the topper off!! One likes it hard, the other softer? We have twin toppers!!! We pride ourselves on thinking of the details for you that we've not found elsewhere - even in more upscale hotels, etc. - yet at VERY REASONABLE PRICES!!!
