Exceptional Location, Facilities and Hosts
Cannot say enough about this property as it has a fantastic view of the ocean and forest. We ventured out daily to take various tours and always looked forward to returning mid afternoon to enjoy the pool and lounge area. David and Michelle were exceptional hosts and we enjoyed spending time with them. Would not hesitate to stay here again!

What a beautiful and relaxing place to stay! And David & Michelle are wonderful. They were helpful in every way. What a privilege it was to get to know them and for them to share their amazing property with us. We so enjoyed the unbeatable views while relaxing in the infinity pool, being entertained by the monkeys, watching the scarlet macaws and toucans fly in & out, the massages that Michelle lined up for us and just the overall peacefulness we felt while being there.

An absolute dream!
From the location of the property, to the hosts, to the wildlife and views- we couldn't have asked for a more perfect experience. Michelle and David went above and beyond to ensure our stay was an absolute dream. Close to the beach but a full jungle experience. This property is breath taking and we cannot wait to come back.

Breathtaking View
I’ve been visiting this area for 15 years and this is the best short term rental I’ve had the pleasure of staying! The view from the pool and each room is breathtaking! Found ourselves never wanting to leave. The host, David and Michelle, are two of the most genuine people you’ll ever meet. I’ll definitely return.

Incredible views
The property is absolutely gorgeous, the hosts are wonderful. It was a bit difficult to get to and I would highly recommend a 4x4. The views for sure made it worth it. One of our the air conditioners did not work and a repair man was unable to come out, but the hosts did everything in their power to ensure our comfort. Overall a good experience, we would go back to visit for sure.

This is a beautiful home located on a mountain top overlooking the Pacific Ocean. The view is gorgeous and it has a wonderful infinity pool. While relaxing in the pool or just sitting enjoying the scenery you will see toucans, buzzards, Macaw’s, Cara Cara Eagles and white face capuchin monkeys. It was just so beautiful and relaxing we didn’t want to leave. The hosts Michelle and David were so gracious and helpful with anything we needed. I highly recommend this place. We will definitely return.

Christmas in Jaco
Michelle was proactive with us and helped us so much along the way, and answered our many questions giving advice about things to do, places to eat, massage recommendations, and so much more! David and Michelle’s home was wonderful and so peaceful and just what our busy lives needed, where we had tranquility, a beautiful view, could see wildlife, and so much more. We enjoyed our stay so much and if we ever came again to Costa Rica we would stay there again! They are wonderful hosts and their home does not disappoint. We loved our Christmas in this amazing country.

We came to Jaco to check out the town as a potential place to live. Little did we know, we would meet such wonderful hotsts, David and Michelle! Their house and accommodations are just wonderful. The beds are super comfy, you have all the necessities if you chose not to leave the property, its truly hard to leave. David and Michelle are worth their weight in gold as far as kindness and information go. We have made friends for life. The view cant be beat, as well as all the forest animals and birds.

5-star stay
The house is spectacular and the same can be said about the hospitality of our hosts. They did everything and more to make us feel at home. We enjoyed the views, the pool, and the house. There is lots to do and see in the area and so we filled our 6-day stay and truly regretted that we had to leave and go back home. Our hosts allowed us to arrive a day early due to a tropical storm in the location where we were coming from -- this was super nice. We highly recommend booking this house and will come back, if time permits.

Over the Top Beautiful!
What an amazing spot in the world and the hosts, Michelle and David, were beyond gracious and accommodating! We loved every minute of our stay and enjoyed all that came with it. Emerson, a local chef, was recommended by Michelle and what a find he was. He was so good we ended up having him for another night. The whole stay was so so delightful that we booked another stay for next year! Thank you Michelle and David for sharing your joy with us! Cathy, Dave, Nancy and Lisa

Paradise on earth
This was an absolutely magical visit. The views were spectacular, accommodations top-rate, and David and Michelle are such wonderful, lovely, and helpful hosts. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit, the surrounding wildlife and daily morning walks on the mountain. David and Michelle made us feel right at home. The house is truly situated on a slice of heaven, and I will longingly recall our stay as I sit back to work at my computer at home. It was hard to leave. Michelle and David - thank you so much. We really enjoyed our little visits with you - you guys are the best!!

Our favorite place ever!
What can I say? This place is truly magical. I have tears in my eyes as I type this. I will tell you right now, you will NEVER want to leave. David and Michelle are the most gracious hosts you will have the pleasure to know. My husband and I now consider them friends. We cannot wait to visit Costa Rica again and will most definitely stay at Pedazo de Cielo. It truly is a little piece of heaven. <3

Heaven above Jaco
David and Michelle’s home high on the mountain - overlooking the ocean and mountains - is so breath taking - pictures hardly capture its beauty and tranquility. Both are gracious hosts and you feel as though you are a part of their family from the first hug hello. The house is so beautiful and is graciously appointed with any and everything you need. The pool and outside living area is an oasis - not giving you much reason to leave. But, there are great beaches and tasty food close by so ventures off the mountain are equally rewarding. We also did a local waterfall hike which we loved. Bottom line - this is a rental experience not to be missed. You will fall in love with the home, the owners and the experience. We will be coming back!
