Casa Khoisan is a luxury vacation home built on a 4 acre private property nestled in the jungle and overlooking the Pacific Ocean. You will enjoy the cooler hilltop temperatures up on the wide floating terrace above the forest canopy surrounded by abundant wildlife, while being only a 5 minute drive from the world class surfing beaches of Playa Hermosa and Santa Teresa.
The Casita offers a full kitchen, large garden bathroom with outside shower, A/C, high speed internet, and secured parking.

The space
Casa Khoisan is one of only two houses located on a private property. The owners, who are the friendly and laid back hosts, Jon and Chantelle, live in the other house. The property is on top of the ridge of hills that over looks the area of Playa Hermosa de Cobano, a small beach side community just 6 km north of the popular and bustling town of Santa Teresa. Playa Hermosa is well known to be one of the most beautiful beaches in the area with incredible surf for all levels from beginners to experienced surfers. The small community has a few nice restaurants, a surf shop with board rentals and surf instructors, and a grocery store. The drive down to the beach takes a quick 5 minutes. It is indeed walkable, around 30 minutes, but coming back, you will have to go uphill.
The property has fruit trees and a walking trail that leads 200 meters downhill to the bottom of a jungle valley, where the property ends at a secluded creek. Here, there is a small waterfall and natural pool in the rainy season. If the guests opt to take this walk, they will experience a special place where they can enjoy being completely alone in the belly of the jungle and surrounded by nature.

Born in the Philippines to an American father and Malaysian mother, I was raised globally due to my father's profession with Humanitarian aid in places that include India, East and West Africa, NYC, and finally Thailand where I finished High School.

My adult life was spent doing random work in any place that kept my fancy from Yosemite to Paris, but always based mainly in San Diego, California where my family currently resides.

My profession as a chef on private yachts brought me to Costa Rica in 2009 when I took a few days off the boat to surf in Santa Teresa. I immediately fell in love with the wild natural beauty of this place and after many return visits and purchasing property in 2013, I finally settled here permanently in 2017 to build our home and live the simple life with my wife, Chantelle, who is from Cape Town, South Africa.

So, after a lifetime of traveling around the world sleeping on other people's couches, boats, hostels, backyards, hotels, and Airbnb's, it's now my turn to return that hospitality by hosting fellow travelers exploring Costa Rica, doing my very best to make them feel at home.
