The unique dining table made from local wood seats 10. The living space includes a large comfortable L-couch as well as a round card/game table with seating for 5. Custom rain blinds can be lowered for storms that blow in through the trees.

The kitchen is completely stocked for all cooking needs, including a huge selection of pots, pans, serving dishes, platters, cookie trays, automatic coffee maker and tea kettle, as well as knives, silverware, plates and a variety of glasses for large groups. A large kitchen pantry is available for food storage. There is a large kitchen island with stools and a long desktop area with stools that provides an excellent area for working or relaxing while you prepare your meals. Laundry Room: Includes new washer and dryer available for most stays with laundry soap available for use. There is also a utility sink for washing clothing and other items, as well as a rack for hanging delicates to dry. Upstairs Balcony Lounge: At the top of the stairs, outside of the master and second bedrooms there is a large comfortable couch with side tables, as well as lounge chairs. This is an ideal spot to enjoy the ocean view and breeze, and of course watch the wildlife bounce through the yard. El Oasis is home to nesting Great Green Macaws, Spider and Howler Monkeys frequent the canopy, as well as sloths, toucans, coastal hawks, and a variety of other tropical birds. Beach Area: A short walk through the yard takes you to our gate to the beach - Playa Grande. We have a picnic table there for your use with benches and tree swings for your enjoyment. There are also beach chairs available as well as beach towels and other beach toys. If you walk to the left out of our gate down the beach there is a river that cuts into the beach. This is a great spot for kids to play and swim. Just past the river is the best spot for surfing on Playa Grande. If you continue past the surfing area you come to a point and beyond that point is Arrecife Beach. If you walk out of our property and go to the right, you will find an old Panamanian tanker stuck in the sand where the ocean breaks. It is covered in colorful graffiti art and is very picturesque. If you continue that direction you will get to the town of Manzanillo - just a short 15 minute walk from El Oasis. Location and Attractions: The property is located on Playa Grande beach, about 20 minutes down the road from the largest town in the area, Puerto Viejo, and just 5 minutes from the small town of Manzanillo. Manzanillo is literally the end of the road – you’ll then find 10,000 protected acres of jungle and mangroves - the Gandoca Wildlife Refuge. And then you’re in Panama. Puerto Viejo: PV is filled with restaurants and small shops and little vendors. There is a farmers market on weekends (check locally for schedule) that includes local produce and specialty items like locally made chocolate. There are also a variety of bars and spots for nightlife in Puerto Viejo. Cocles Beach: Just past Puerto Viejo is Cocles - this area is a busy beach for surfing and hanging out. There is a lot of activity with surfing and other rentals, food trucks and beachside rentals. There is a volleyball net with local games frequently happening on the beach. Cocles is also where you will find the closest groceries stores. Punta Uva / Arrecife Beaches: Punta Uva Beach is consistently named among the top beaches in the world – for good reason. It is in a protected cove so the waves are small and the water is a beautiful turquoise blue. The beach has a jungle river cutting through it and you can rent kayaks on the beach for a lovely paddle down river to see monkeys and other wildlife. The beach runs up against a large rocky hillside that you can hike over to get the next beach - Arrecife. This is a great little hike with beautiful views. Arrecife is also somewhat protected with smaller waves and lovely beaches. The road behind the beach has a few cute restaurants as well and you can hike or drive quite far down the beach to get to some rather deserted beach areas that are gorgeous. Gandoca Wildlife Refuge: Just on the other side of Manzanillo is the vast Gandoca Wildlife Refuge - a giant protected area including beach, ocean and jungle. It is great for day hikes and adventuring with beautiful beaches, snorkeling and vistas. You can walk there on the beach from our house in about 20 minutes or drive there in 5 minutes. To enter the park there is a requested donation - any amount is appreciated and will help continue its mission of educating and preserving this rich, biodiverse area. Jaguar Rescue Center: Amazing animal rescue and rehab center just minutes from our property. A wide array of animals and very knowledgeable staff. Not to be missed. Highly recommend doing the VIP tour to get the most out of your time at the Center. Ara Green Macaw Rescue Project: This is extremely close to our property and not to be missed. This project has single-handedly bringing the endangered Great Green Macaw back to the region. You will hear about the project and have the opportunity to see a TON of these majestic creatures up close as they fly around you. This organization placed the nest in our yard and we now have a nesting couple with lots of other Green Macaws visiting the property throughout the day. ## Property amenities ### Beach - On the beach ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Hob - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 3 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Living room - Separate dining area ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - No lift (single-level property) - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Housekeeping (on request) ### Location highlights - Near the sea - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Kayak ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit ### General - Garden - Housekeeping (on request) - Unit size: 2,775 square feet ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 3:00 PM Minimum check-in age - 25 ### Check-out Check-out before 10:00 AM ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions ### Pets Pets not allowed ### Children and extra beds Children are welcome ### Events No events allowed ### Smoking Smoking is not permitted ## Important information ### You need to know This property is managed by a professional host.

Very close to Punta Uva which has great swimming and surfing for kids. Easy drive to Puerto Viejo for restaurants. Super clean, very well maintained, good A/C. Hosts were extremely helpful and responsive - they organized a private driver from SJO to the house, and then to the car rental the next day. Highly recommend! ##### Ethan R. Stayed 5 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### stephen l. 29 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Incredible stay, a true Oasis! We had an absolutely incredible stay. The place was fantastic. We loved the location after staying at a beach house in the more hectic PV area down the road. This house was slightly set back from the direct path to the beach, very private with a beautiful front landscape. We watched the ocean from the upper deck and loved watching the special tropical bird nest! We enjoyed the big kitchen, the open sitting areas and had all the amenities we needed! We were a family of four from Canada. Highly recommend this place ##### stephen l. Stayed 7 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 25 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great private place on the beach with jungle vibe Just spent a week with the family at this beautiful spot. Can't say enough about it. Very cool home with a jungle vibe right next to the beach. A lot of privacy and space and a killer open patio. Love the spacious patio. Super clean with all the amenities you would need. Boogie boards, surf boards, washer/dryer, really cool furniture and decor, AC in bedrooms. Great beach to walk, swim, and see wildlife (a lot of monkeys and macaws). Also very close to Punta Uva beach (our fav) and Puerto Viejo. Had a lot of great meals at the local restaurants. Management very responsive to questions or issues. Great time. Highly recommended. Would stay again. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### barbados1964 D. 19 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### More Than We Expected After booking this property I became concerned because my friend said that there was only one review online. I told him not to worry about it because VRBO properties are always fine with me. When we arrived it was night time. We had a little problem at the gate because there is a digital box and a small manual key box above that that is difficult to see at night. We got in to the property and were pleased with the building itself. Very nice porch that acts like a living room outside of the indoor kitchen. The main bedroom is very nice and overlooks the garden to the beach. The following day, we awoke to a vibrant display of colors and sounds. The sounds of the waves from the beach, the parrots, and the monkeys was so relaxing. This place is magical. ##### barbados1964 D.
