Good Short Term Rental
The house itself is very cool. They layout, design and materials used to build this house are great. We were amazed that no bugs ever came in considering there are no glass windows or screens (just open air windows with wood shutters). When you have all the shutters open you really feel like you’re connected to the nature outside. No air conditioners here if you need that comfort, hence the reason for my review title.
That being said it was very warm in the house. If you’re not used to the heat, sleeping could take some getting used to. We actually moved the mattress from upstairs into the living room downstairs and also used the air mattress while we were there to sleep on the cooler level of the house.
The property is not in the main section of Cahuita, which was a plus to me. We like to be just outside of the busy areas we visit. It was a bit close to a main road which meant you can sometimes hear loud trucks once in a while. This actually bothered the howler monkeys in the neighborhood more than us. Yes I said howler monkeys. A family of them took up residence in a tree next to the house. It was actually really fun to hear and watch them, especially for my two daughters (11 & 9 ). Overall the neighborhood is very quiet and felt safe.
The house was super clean upon arrival and had the basic necessities for our stay. Things we would add: a toaster or toaster oven, a dryer for clothes, better water pressure for shower and drinking water (the tap tasted like copper).
