My family of four and four friends from nearby Cartago enjoyed La Gobeta during Christmas 2019. It was a little rough getting here on the road up and down the mountain but well worth it. The outdoor kitchen is so awesome and it is incredibly stocked with ample amounts of silverware, plates, cups, knives, cooking utensils, crock pots, rice maker, two refrigerators, surf boards, boogie boards, four bathrooms(one in each unit and an outdoor one by the kitchen) 3 hammocks, outdoor above ground pool and all of it right on the beach! I have been using VRBO for over ten years and this is one of the best places I have ever rented. Jose, who is the on-site manager brought us fresh papayas, fresh coconut water from coconuts they cut down from the trees and was very flexible with our arrival and departure times. It is a little off the beaten path so please be prepared to be slightly isolated. Wifi was excellent, no TV’s which was okay with us. Dominga made dinner for us our first evening. We thought she made it in the outdoor kitchen but she prepares it ahead of time and delivers it at the requested time, definitely alot of food, just let Carlos know how many people she should cook for. Our friends from Cartago are thinking of making this their new Xmas tradition to rent La Gobeta every year. This is definitely a piece of paradise!
