This property is truly a gem nestled in the rain forest and was a serene experience. You literally have the jungle to yourself. Deborah was great and made sure we had what we needed for our stay. Jose was also amazing and gave us a guided tour of the property and we swam in the waterfall. If you want privacy and an authentic rain forest experience, this is it. I'd love to go back and spend more time there exploring and taking it all in.

I’m still blown away by the beauty of the property! After experiencing the busyness of the beach area, this more remote location was definitely our preference. There are beautiful hikes on the property, and the bonus was the waterfall/swimming hole. We enjoyed an evening hike with Jose who knew so much about the plants and animals native to Costa Rica. Our tour with Jose was a highlight! It is a good 15-20 minute drive on rough terrain but well worth the views from the house. And Deborah was so incredibly helpful with planning excursions.She made that entire process very easy.

We love to hike and this place has great trails and hikes. The nearby river is gorgeous and the trees and flowers are spectacular. Jose’s night hike was a lot of fun for the whole family. We’ve rented a hundred vacation homes and Pete and Deborah were the most communicative and helpful of any place we’ve stayed. The house is beautiful and clean. It can get a little hot at night in the rooms but they supply lots of fans which work well. We loved everything about our stay..

Our three night stay at this private retreat was a wonderful introduction to Costa Rica. Even before we arrived, the hosts were very communicative and offered to coordinate an array of activities to enhance our trip, including a dinner made on site by a local chef and a fantastic ziplining adventure. By the time we arrived, it felt like we already knew Peter and Deborah. The well-equipped, spacious home is situated in the midst of the rainforest and offers lovely views and sounds of the jungle from every angle including two large balconies off the upper bedrooms. Our family of seven adults had plenty of room to spread out and enjoy every corner of this lovely home that was kindly filled with tropical flower arrangements from the property's gardens. We enjoyed both a night tour of the rain forest and a morning tour of the spectacular property (two very different experiences) that culminated in a swim at the beautiful waterfall. Our guide, Jose, was fantastic and taught us so much about the rainforest. We were also free to explore the property and visit the waterfall on our own. We were so happy to have this authentic rainforest experience and hope to one day return.

The hosts were very friendly and very accommodating. They were always available to answer questions, or offer suggestions for activities in the area. The house is large and open, surrounded by acres of rainforest beauty. We were treated to a guided walk-around tour of the area. Our guide, Jose, was great. The house was filled with exotic flower arrangements from the property. We highly recommend this VRBO house and hosts. They made our first visit to Costa Rica amazing and memorable.

It was refreshing to be in the middle of a rainforest with all its magical nature (cicada, birds, rain) plus a private waterfall/river area to explore. We had moments to experience--sun times, pouring rain, guided night walk, self guided explore thru the land and to the river . Big pluses; Deb so kindly helped with driving arrangements to/from house. She also arranged the night walk with Jose that was a highlight.The washer and dryer with detergent was a lifesaver after being in Costa Rica for 2 weeks. A full kitchen with some basics stocked. There was plenty of space with two large upstairs bedrooms and a third on the main floor. Lots of nooks and crannies to read a book, play games or just enjoy the rainforest view.Things to consider: -the house is a ways from stores/restaurants so bring food needed while you're there. If you have a car it makes it easier. We stayed 2 days without car. -bumpy unpaved road part of experience to there-the house is not new construction, so has some quirks that add to its custom charm. The floors are creaky, making it hard to sneak up the stairs without anyone knowing you're coming. The electricity flickered when we had a rainstorm, but came back within seconds. Plenty of eclectic decorations, towels, and warm showers. The house feels completely safe in its privacy and Deb responded within moments when we reached out. We agreed we'd stay here again as the experience you get is peacefully unlike any other you will find in CR.

First of all, the host will literally do anything for you to help make your stay amazing! Very communicative. Her grounds keeper Jose, of this 230 acre dream gave us a three hour tour which we recommend. This was our first time to Costa Rica and this beautiful place should be a place you should consider. Very remote. We rented a truck w/ 4 wheel drive. Something you would feel more comfortable making the trek on the stunning switchback dirt roads. The jaw-dropping hike to the water fall is something we will never forget! So many wondrous sounds off in the jungle and right outside your door! Hummingbirds everywhere, butterflies, and so many creatures…it will amaze you! There’s everything you need there to cook. Make sure to get the Lozano Salsa Sauce- so delicious! Don’t pass this gem up! You’ll take the most stunning pictures There!

Our only regret is not having enough time to thoroughly enjoy the grounds and waterfalls. We were here for two nights, and I wish we had longer. It was a peaceful home that brought the outdoors inside, and Deborah was an amazing host. We will def be back the next time we are in Costa Rica :)

Fantastic property! The host is fantastic! They organized many activities for our family. They also were in contact almost every day to help out and answer questions. The on property waterfall was a hit with the kids and we went there several times. We saw tons of wildlife just outside, monkeys, frogs, birds, even wild horses! Definitely will want 4 wheel drive, this place is in the jungle.

This was the perfect place for our family. We wish we could have stayed and enjoyed the property longer. Our host was fantastic and attentive. Her employees were the best. We loved the hikes we did on the property and the swim in the waterfall. We also did a night tour with Jose' and had a great time seeing all the critters. (My daughter is a biology major so she could have explored this property for many more days.) It is a rustic feel in the middle of the rainforest which is what we wanted. We highly recommend it for those wanting to stay IN the rainforest.

I fully enjoyed everything about this rental. It was perfect to enjoy nature and disconnect. I loved the openness of the house. Each morning I woke up to monkeys chattering in the distance and birds singing. I couldn't wait to make coffee and watch the hummingbirds. At night, we could see glowing beetles and could listen to the sounds of the jungle. The landscaping and flowers around the property were delightful to explore. Though the toucans remained elusive, we were treated to monkeys traveling outside the windows one afternoon. I do recommend an AWD vehicle but we managed just fine in an SUV without. We arranged all of our activities through Deborah. She was a godsend and I couldn't have planned my dream trip without her. She arranged for Cleo to come and cook for us one night which was amazing and we went out with Jose horseback riding and on a night tour. It was all so much fun and everyone in the family loved it. I do wish that I had more free time to explore around the property but that was my only regret. My sincere thanks for such a wonderful experience.

SO. MUCH. FUN. My two teenagers and I had such a fantastic week! The home was a little more remote than I expected but having a rental car made it super easy. Deborah was extremely helpful and responsive and did a great job facilitating our activities. Jose was a great steward on-site and helped us understand the local Flora and Fauna. I'd go back in a heartbeat!!!

It was an adventure to stay in the jungle. We loved having a private river to hike 1/2 mile to anytime we wanted. Host Debra and Jose the guide were great and helped us book any excursions we needed. The falls were not going while we were there due to summer dry season. Home can get warm in the really hot humid days and some bugs in the home but nothing not expected staying in the jungle. We loved the privacy of the place! The whole family had a good time.

This was a beautiful, remote location offering 200 acres to explore and enjoy without the inconvenience of other tourists. Deborah went out of her way to ensure we only had the best experience. Jose, our property tour guide, naturalist, and an integral part of Deborah’s support staff, is a wealth of knowledge about the jungle and showed us plants and animals that we’ll never forget. The property has beautiful waterfalls, wonderful swimming hole, and flora and fauna that delivered a once in a lifetime experience. Deborah also arranged for us an exquisite in-home dinning experience with her local friend and chef, Cleo; this is something you definitely want to try. Although somewhat of a rustic place (no air conditioning), we enjoyed awakening every morning to the sounds of the wildlife. In short, the people associated with this property are some of the finest you can ever meet.

The place was so awesome ! In the middle of the thickest rain forest jungle. Big time privacy. Waterfalls and swimming holes on the property. Debra ( the owner) was so much help in arranging our excursions and shuttles. And José, the handyman and nature guru, was amazing on our tours. If sitting at resorts drinking all day by the pool is your thing, this is not for you. But if you love nature and adventure , I recommend it highly.

We had an amazing time at the Light of Dawn! Complete Costa Rica experience…waking up to the birds and wildlife and jungle…hiking to a spectacular private waterfall and watching the rushing river from by the falls. Deborah was so kind and helpful and helped us with all of our excursion planning and made things so easy! No frills and older simple accommodations but have us an authentic experience of this part of Costa Rica. It is a hike to town on a rocky windy road for 1/2 of the time but it was worth it! The drive to and from the house was really part of the adventure and it was a beautiful drive. Jose took us on a fun Jungle night tour and we learned alot and loved it! Ziplining was also super fun! Thanks for the adventure and perfect experience for our family!

Delightful place to stay, property and scenery beautiful. Deborah and Jose are amazing. Cleo, our chef, is a gem. Definitely need your own transportation as shuttles are expensive due to location of property.
Estada de 5 nits (des. 2023)

We wholeheartedly recommend this beautiful home! 200 acres of private rainforest and a 60’ waterfall with swim hole all to ourselves. Our party of five (two adults, plus our kids ages 19, 17 and 16) stayed for five nights and had some fun wildlife sightings during that time, including a rare appearance of about a dozen spider monkeys. The house is spacious, with tons of fresh air and great views from the bedroom balconies. Most importantly, we had a fantastic host, Deborah, who went out of her way to help us out and make sure we were having a great stay. She and Jose led a daytime and night tour for us, and she also arranged a couple of local excursions. If you want to get away from the touristy areas and commune with nature, this place is perfect. I will say though, that this place may not be for everyone: - You will definitely need to rent a 4-wheel drive vehicle, as the 40-minute drive from Quepos has a steep curvy gravel road the last several miles. This meant that we didn’t venture out after dark to avoid driving at night. - Also, this house had everything we needed in terms of amenities, and everything worked well for us, and we loved all the character it had. If you are looking for a modern, high-end accommodation with all the latest bells and whistles, this may not be the place for you. This house does have a few quirks, like creeky wooden floors on the 2nd floor and no lighting in the laundry area (so if you do laundry at night, it's totally dark in there).

We had a great stay at this home. We had a little bit of miscommunication about meeting up and also payments. This was our first VRBO experience, and I didn’t know the payments weren’t automatic, so our second payment wasn’t until our last day. I felt bad about that. We also had a delay on our end upon arrival and due to slow Internet, it was difficult to communicate that and receive messages back. Also, if I stayed at this property again, I think we would definitely get 4WD. I thought when we reserved our rental that it was AWD, but it wasn’t. The drive is doable without 4WD, but I imagine 4WD would make it a quicker drive. It took us 25 minutes from where the pavement ends to get in and out of rainforest, and from there, it was another 15 to 20 minutes to Quepos. Quite the drive, but it’s not like that wasn’t advertised. Deborah was very helpful in suggesting and arranging different activities for us. We did the catamaran tour with a waterslide and it was really fun. I wish that we had done the zip lining in the area. We ended up doing it about an hour and a half north at the Carrara adventure park and it just wasn’t as scenic (they also overbooked the groups-good lunch though!) We also did the morning hike with Jose and loved it. He was so knowledgeable about the plants in the area, which was fascinating, because it’s just so different from where we live.

Debra was outstanding! Helped to arrange all our activities was an amazing lady. The property was perfection. The home beautiful. She was always available and ensured we were where we needed to be. This place is not only gorgeous but it truly feels homey! We enjoyed simply walking the property! We left by accident our go pro on a tour she was arranging and is shipping to us , talk about above and beyond. I dont like to share personal info but for all she did during that time we are so grateful. An amazing lady!

We were looking to get away from the crowds, but still be close enough to come down the mountain and visit Manual Antonio and other nearby activities. Deborah’s place was magic! She was delightful! There to answer our questions if we needed her, but she gave us our privacy. Up in the hills, no neighbors, surrounded by jungle and wildlife, with our own private waterfall? Yes please! Jose was our night guide and showed us how to get to the waterfall - he was the best! Cleo and her family helped with meals and were a big part of our family feeling welcome here. This was a memory making experience and we are so grateful we found Light of Dawn! (PS - so glad we had a rental suv with 4x4, it was an adventure getting to the house, but nothing we couldn’t handle.)
