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.

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. ##### Kimberly L.

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. ##### Mary C.

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 :) ##### Heather L.

It was an amazing experience and location. We had our own private waterfall and river. Deborah was a great host! Jose the tour guide was awesome! Highly recommended for someone looking for a living in the jungle experience. ##### Randy K.

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. ##### Ahearn S.

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. ##### cherri w.

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. ##### Brad N.

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!!! ##### David B.

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. ##### barry b.

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! ##### Colin M.

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.

We left by accident our go pro on a tour she was arranging and is shipping to us , talk about above and beyond.

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! ##### Andrea H.

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. ##### Melanie O.

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.) ##### Evan M. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2023 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Cindy P. 20 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful property experiences 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. ##### Cindy P.
