What makes your home a Green or Healthy Home?

We have our own well with drinking water. We have our own garden for vegetables and many fruit trees. Many plants are edible or medicinal. We have a large compost area and are ready for worm farming. We are completely in nature, surrounded by animals and jungle. Our house has been build to always receive a slight breeze, making airconditioning or fans unnecessary. We have a compost toilet, an extra outdoors shower. We recycle water for growing our plants. We only use natural products.

Everywhere you will enjoy either beautiful valley, hills or jungle views. If you feel more energetic you can go for a hike in the gorgeous riverbed or up the road for sunset over SJDS bay. At night you can sit at a crackling log fire with wood collected from your own land! Or if that is too much work you can climb up onto your own private roof platform and look at the stars… or use it during the day to sunbathe. The jungle Yoga platforms are truly unique in their green setting and design. Both very different, they can both be used for Yoga, dancing, workshops, relaxation and whatever else might require large, clean and open spaces. Up to 12 tents can comfortably be put up in the hidden jungle platforms and casitas, ensuring a steady income. There are also trees to put up more hammocks for sleeping or relaxation. There are many small unexpected bits of love hidden in the property… engraved steps, painted walls and rocks, dreamcatchers… On the days when everybody is gone, you get to enjoy all these lovely spots on the property all by yourself! The property has a solid good title (two gringo owners), with all taxes paid and up to date. If you have already looked around, you will quickly see that this is a one of a kind opportunity to own a ready to go, truly unique home and business, which feels magic, welcoming and comfortable all at the same time.
